| As usual some stuff I liked. Some stuff I didn't. The Saber wannabe is not particularly interesting to me. Kind of curious how long her and Mamika will stick with villain girl. I did enjoy Meteora's story here. Even though it led to her giving even more endless exposition. As a big fan of classic high fantasy RPGs I found a lot of resonance in her eulogy to her dead creator. In some of my favorite RPGs (like yeah the Persona series), you really do feel an overwhelming sense of love for the world around them from the creators. And the desire to make an experience that gets under your skin. And makes you see the world that much brighter. As someone who's felt that many a time in the realms of Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest and SMT. I found this pretty moving. And well articulated at that. This series has a lot of stuff I really like. I wish it was a little more cohesive overall though. |

| The speed-running community is going to go berserk over this! So we start the episode with Meteora heading over to a game company, only to find a rather harsh truth. As it turns out, the producer for the game tragically passed away in a traffic accident. This was a rather tragic turn, coming to the world of the gods and knowing that the god who created you is no more. Seeing this, she decided to head over to a computer cafe and play the game she was in. The next day, she finished it! HOW? WHEN? WHY? OK, I get why, but HOW!?!? Did she actually speed-run the ENTIRE game? If that's so, I can already hear the speed-running community call bullshit. But then again, she is the librarian, I am not that surprised. We also get a closer look at Aliceteria. She dragged her creator and BOY, is she pissed! She outright ties him up and drags him to her underground lair. LADY! Chill the #%$@ down! You'll traumatize the poor guy into killing you off from the canon. We also get a tender moment between Alice and Mamika, over curry no less. I have to admit there was a LOT of talking in this episode, and though it's a downside, I can see where they're coming from. And not only that, Meteora's reaction to the passing of her creator was well done, I actually felt sorry her and wanted to give her a hug (Despite the abundance of exposition). They want to do some world(or in this case, universe)building before they jump back into the action, I can handle that. But boy, we are not done yet, Because now, we have a mecha kid on our hands. Alright show, I get the in-universe concept, and I also get how the entire CANON thing works, now show me the other card up your sleeve. Show me what you got! |
ONWARDS! Away from homework and on to more anime!!! |
| Holy mother of God somebody needs to stop Meteora and her exposition, it took up like what 75% of the episode. |
| A lot of exposition dump, but I can understand because we needed info. It made sense too for it to be very long and stretched because Meteora seems like that NPC guide who talks on and on. |
 |
| I like Meteora but it feels a little odd having 10-12 minutes of pure conjecture that will probably be right (because they're not going to waste that amount of valuable time only for it to be wrong) since we've seen nothing to back those claims up. |
| Cool so there are two sides starting to get defined |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Haha that ending, that sure is going to be interesting in the next episode! Looking forwards to see the new characters! |
 |
| The first half was all talk. I kinda knew Meteora's creator died, the moment it showed her shock face. It's good to have the characters talk and eat. I kinda notice how we rarely see characters eat in some Animes. Like they always keep going with the story without a sense of break or such. Damn, Alicetaria February is already my favorite character! Not only it's voiced by Yoko Hikasa(one of my faves) as well as having this sense of justice and moral for her country. She kinda reminds me of Jeanne D' Arc in someways ^^ Oh well, we need an action scene next so hopefully the next one will deliver! |
| The idea that multiple stories become real would cause contradictions in the real world feels like a fascinating take on power level arguments. Of the many stories in existence, many are incompatible with each other, so the best we can do is to find some middle ground for comparison, one of which could be estimating their prowess via real world feats and physics. If too many stories come into existence, that middle ground would become increasingly impossible to establish, resulting in a complete mess of organization. Going further into meta, it would be, as if, the writers of Re:Creators needing to somehow justify multiple in-universe stories existing in their in-universe real world without losing consistency. I've seen reverse isekai stories before, though under different names and from different mediums. Re:Creators is interesting for being set in present-day, specifically in this media-saturated age. I'm still hesitant on creating a concrete opinion on the show, but I'll stick with it for now. |
| Lots of talking in the episode, which was alright. I think the worldbuilding felt very Fate-like, with the force/will of the world not liking having the characters in the world. I'm now pretty interested in the uniformed girl character's backstory; it's pretty obvious that Souta's her creator, so Souta must've done something pretty bad for her to be motivated to kill herself just to get back at him. |
| Really enjoyed how Meteora felt and dealt with that situation, the concept of the anime is soo weird by itself, but at least things are being taken into serious account, provided you can accept the synopsis itself. Also, MAL spoils the name of her, so I will just be calling her by the name, which makes it much easier to address. I believe Altair is very much connected with Sota, and from all the hints given so far, it is close to something like, he drew her in the past... that is too many hints pointed towards this, may end up being something else, but that is what I think. Altair itself doesn't seem to be a bad character, it really seems like she has built a mask that she has to keep wearing. I m curious to see how/when it is going to crack, and what are those implications. |

| Very boring episode. |
 |
| was it just me or was a rendition of theme from Interstellar playing in the background there LOL but yeah this soundtrack is so different and so much better than the norm- and it elevates this show which so far is just slightly above average |

LeMasta said: I like Meteora but it feels a little odd having 10-12 minutes of pure conjecture that will probably be right (because they're not going to waste that amount of valuable time only for it to be wrong) since we've seen nothing to back those claims up. Yeah found that odd too, literally nothing to back it up but "let's just assume I'm completely right on this." It's interesting though, characters coming to terms with the fact that they were just stories that other people have created. Kinda makes you think about our world, as long as we perceive to have free will and don't know any better does it really matter? These characters didn't know any better until they were transported to this supposed real world, for all they know this could be part of their story too. |

| The last creation featured in this episode eating without a care for this world is hilarious lmao. |
