16bit Sensation: Another Layer Episode 3 Discussion

For those wondering that Windows version they where using is Windows 95 which was actually pretty decent for Windows at least it didn't have that much useless crap and it didn't need 20 gb to run unlike the current versions of Windows, if you value you Disk space go with Fedora or Archlinux you can even run pretty much all games on that now especially if you use Steam.
Anyway Konoha needs to invest in a waterproof tablet next time since that swimming pool is most likely what killed it, and she actually had power this time.
It also looks like storywise she seems to need to convince Mamoru for making that game if the current trend continues my guess is that she ends up working for that company instead of the black company she is currently working for.

This comment is moreso about the whole series than this specific episode, but I really want to talk about just how much I’m enjoying this series. I didn’t get the chance to watch the first two episodes until 2 days ago but I was IMMEDIATELY hooked. I was interested as soon as I learned it was by the same author as “The World God Only Knows” which is my favorite animanga series ever but I didn’t expect this series to have so many similar vibes. The character writing, the humor, the art style, the absolute passion for games as a medium, even Konaha being a nice hybrid between Keima and Elsie…I’m not kidding when I say it felt like the Ratatouille meme and it was genuinely the most fun I think I’ve had watching a new series in a while. I was smiling the entire time and was super happy when I saw the “reality is just a crappy game” reference and all the focus on cute girls/heroines in games.

Konoha is already one of the most likable characters of the season to me also, I feel like she’s been a great mix of just a fun character while also having some really nice character moments (A game that doesn’t dare to dream isn’t a game at all!) so far and her energy has been one of the major things carrying this series so far. I’m also really loving the expressiveness this series gives her. Plot hasn’t picked up a ton yet but the character dynamics have been great and I’m super excited to see where the series goes from here.

This episode was also another fun time! I’m hoping this series manages to pick up some more buzz since I haven’t seen many people talk about it before now, which is a shame because it may have surpassed Frieren as the series I’m enjoying the most so far this season.

sugita sneaking into another show as the afro dude lol, konoha can be annoying but i like the bishoujo game chick. '96 now huh.

@Enel-
Lol this sereis cannot be compared to twgok.it seems too unfocused.Does it want to be a time travel story,a dating sim exploration or a mamoru kun story?

Its a big mess now

100% sure the 2023 Mamoru uses either Arch or TempleOS, but nothing else.
Maybe Konoha should have said him the painful truth that in the future 90% of users run Windows.

Also, her company doesn't really look like a black company. The only employee which is in a bad mental shape seems to be like that because of shitstorms on social medias, not because of the company itself. Moreover, the anime clearly shows don't overwork ; at 19h00 exactly they leave. What bothers Konoha is that the company doesn't want to take artistical risks but prefer to create average, bland games that will sell nonetheless.
