This is a nice change of pace.
I like that we got to learn some of Chiharu and Makina's past (and how they got arrested each time).
The officer had to act like she was their mother for an episode...
Also, 17 TIMES!!!

(I love the jokes in this series!)

Really nice to learn about Chiharu's and Makina's past and how close they are to each other.

back story time!!!
always feels epic!
I liked it a lot.
Only wish they'd give us all 36 to 40 minutes of content all at once...

This is one of my faves of the season. I hope they go all in with the short form approach!

Waiting a full week for only 3 minutes is killing me. I really like the characters and the writer is doing a great job so far. It would have gone really hard if it was released as a 1 or 2 episodes OVA

A perfect example of a codependent type of relationship, both making terrible decisions and one far more passive and enabling of the aggressive and impulsive one.

And let's not forget that the one making the dumb decisions in regards to relationships, Chiharu, is probably at the core of this, since she's not establishing boundaries for Makina, which makes her think she can continue to do this and eventually Chiharu will "understand" that she's doing it for her sake.

Also, getting slight vibes that Makina almost might have romantic feelings for Chiharu, or is very much serving as an older sister figure, especially if both lack strong and present parental figures. Lot to unpack and these two alone could be the basis for a whole film in the vein of Thelma and Louise or such (though I'll admit I haven't seen that film, so I can't say there are strict parallels)

Realistically, I'm not sure Chiharu would be going to jail at all if the situation happened in the U.S., unless she obstructed or resisted police officers in basic requests.

Which is not out of the realm of possibility with her willful attitude and Makina is just a bundle of impulse and big feelings she can't properly channel

What a refreshingly fun story. The lighting fast wit between characters is amazing. Unfortunately with the speed I find myself rewinding a lot because the character expressions can’t be ignored while reading.

@nhkam That's why I recommend the dub for this series. (On Youtube, you can change the audio track in the settings (gear icon on the bottom right).)
There are many languages besides Japanese and English as well, so you can choose the one you are most comfortable listening to.
I think the voice acting is pretty good (at least in English) and I find that it helps a lot when people are talking on top of each other.

It seems like the pink alien species can exist in space without any equipment, as we could see the officer having a helmet on at the station, along with the other characters being seemingly entirely robotic or some form of cyborg.
