This was their toughest fight yet but glad to see Otaku Hero and his allies rally up and make a stand. The revolution army also made their move.

Hell, I thought this episode was very chaotic and very moment felt unpredictable.

Anarchy's past comes to haunt her, in the backdrop that Slayer will strike in one more day to end them all. And Otaku Hero, wanting to step up to the plate to beat this unbeatable fight against her and Shobon, it's now or never. The hope that whoever remains will be part of the fandom, and if they could strike against Shobon first, the SSC's reign would come to an end. Otaku strike first, say later, with cheers for their final meal to see the world change before their very eyes, to take back what they like. Otaku Hero, sensing something amiss, tells of the Magical Destroyers to be aware as the battle starts its wages.

The otaku plan must absolutely not fail, and once it's time, it's going all-out with the Revolutionary Otaku Army against the SSC in an ambush, while the magical girls face Slayer and her comrades that Shobon has provided for her. Absolutely, the main point is between Anarchy and Slayer while the Revolutionary Otaku Army has managed to infiltrate and capture the SSC from within, with victory just steps away. But all of a sudden, the magical girls pump out their last trump card with the drug, and Shobon evaded Otaku Hero, with the dairy of events penning out the final plans, just exactly as he visioned.

Otaku Hero may have ambushed Shobon and the SSC, but the latter has been always one step ahead of them, with the drug being a curse than a blessing instead.

What to make up of this unpredictability? I'm certainly impressed of how it manages to do an insane plot twist now.

That plot twist was quite something, and I feel like there's one final kicker coming, but for now, the all out war begins, and the last resort, the drugs have been used by the magical girls. Is it some sort of curse? Guess we'll find out. Just who is Shobon? I've suspected it was Otaku Hero's father, but anything could happen at this point.

The drawings feel way more fitting now...

I love this show but the suspense is killing me. There were a couple of episodes that felt wasted too. It's dropped from 10/10 AOTS to 8/10 with Oshi no Ko leading as my AOTS. I hope they can make me bring the score back up in the last two episodes.

Hmm maybe since the "clones" look like our main magical girls it's possible Shobon is also an alter Otaku Hero, like invading an alternate universe and stuff.

The last gun that didn't shoot is the fact that this comic which otaku hero have found in shobon residence is always read with anarchy voice at the end of each episode.

Lowkey I thought the previews for each episode were just random comic drawings...but no...they were actually real previews for the next episode!

Only took me 10 episodes to figure that out but I love it.

Pretty obvious the two goons were Yellow and Green but man MORE MAGICAL GIRLS?!?!?!

Show is unbelievable and is extremely underappreciated

The animation took a noticeable drop, and the actual events seemed like a very predictable drag out until the last 2 minutes.

Show is very self-ware based on the narration of the next episode preview lol...

This episode was disappointing given how good the previous two were. It was pretty straight forward story wise until the ending, so it wasn't interesting and the animation was also really poor. I miss the transformation scenes from earlier in the season because at least those were animated well.

Well, there won't be a happy ending. Even if otaku hero manages to win against shobon, there's still all those who die in this battle and that the magical girls will destroy akiba in their rampage.

Guy in mask had weaponised body pillow. Also suspense is killing me because I don't know if it will flop or last 2 eps will make it at least 8/10.

I remember that Blue and Pink consumed their potions last fight, so how do they get others, or am I mistaken?

Oh no! Enough just for Pink and Blue. But not with Anarchy-chan turning into blop too, my heart, can't!

Otaku laid a surprise ambush attack. But turned out they hella straight going into Shobon surprise trap, which actually not so surprising counter attack, since its already written off all on his death comic. At least some of those guys shall get their dream comes true, in the afterlife.

So, let's see if they can hold a more concrete plan to end this messed up wacky show...

I'm thinking the same... Except if there is a proper explanation that seems like a major plot-hole

Time is ticking, there are only 24 hours left before it's over, and the otaku camp is still welded together in an act of bravery right as we start the final battle, the objective is clear : Find and kill Shobon. Of course, we're start to see that from the begining there will obviously be moments that'll break the hope that we have, and this episode indeed delivered. We see a few backgrounds character die and we see Shobon's book, which are the weird gibberish drawings that we see at the end of every episode, he seems to be able to tell future events, this man just be very powerful and unstoppable with this power. We also get to see more Magical Girls clones and maybe the 3 girls start to madness ? ALL IN THE LAST MINUTE OF THE EPISODE, man this was tense, I'm very excited to see how it'll roll up in an epic, maybe sad and melancholic way, maybe in the dawn of a new day for the otakus of this universe, filled with smile and hope. Only caveat that I have for this episode is how non impacting the deaths are, they obvously try to avoid any blood to keep it somewhat kid friendly, but we didn't get to see the hitting parts of the cruel world that is war, even Otaku Hero himself said that it's a tense war against a very difficult enemy, yet it kinda seems like the attack went smooth sailing (could also somewhat be related to the fact that it was planned by the SSC), but maybe some dramatic moments like we see in war movies that makes us see the horror of it could have been more impactful to the general ending vibe that this anime was aiming for from the start. It's pretty cool, but not as hyped as a Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica type of sad show.
I like everything, ok

Blue and Pink also have their clones huh.

The final fight will surely have the 3 girls combine.

So the "advance" that we saw at the end of the chapters is the notebook of drafts that the TV head had, who for some reason knows what is going to happen before it happens as if he were directing the script, and in that Otaku notebook Hero sees how, being on the verge of death, they take the drug and unlock the ultra instinct but then they end up dying the same along with the rest of the people who accompanied the fight? I don't understand a damn XD

Hoo boy. The animation was very rough in this one.

The plot twist was interesting tho and the after credits monologue was weirdly pretty meta.

I wonder who the other girls are that we saw in Anarchy's dream being that there were five of them total which is more characters than we have been introduced to at this point.

I actually didn't expect the end credits to actually tie back into the plot rather than just being a preview. That's interesting.

Well if they were gonna raise their death flags anyway, might as well have a good time before going to hell!
