----------------------------------------
This episode is lots of fun, though turning your brain off is required. The entire baseball scenario was hilarious. Everything was so unrealistic it was comical. "At least I got to play ball in the end", such a corny line.

I was suspicious about Rika at the beginning, though since he finally got an episode to shine, my doubts have been lifted. Favorite character of the series so far for me.

I will say though, the show got me for a moment when Yuri shot Mayuko. At first I didn't buy it, though then it held on the shot for an extra moment which made me question for a second.

More fan service this episode, they are really pushing a yuri subtext to the relationship between Yuri and Mayuko, though it seems mostly one sided for now.

More questions answered but more brought up. The white haired girl is obviously a big aspect to the puzzle and it will be interesting to see how big of a role she plays in future episodes.

I'm glad Yuri's determination was unwavering and she decided not to harm Mayuko. Thou lol she gave her the wrong idea about what she was thinking.

Rika finally makes his appearance and I like his character. He seems like a badass. Also using a hammer to crush the Mask people's skull is brutal.

So this realm is a facility to make gods huh and the Masks are Angels, interesting. Also who's this new girl, she's close to becoming a god? Wonder how did she do it. Maybe she didn't lose her sanity nor killed anyone even in this situation. Which might be how they make gods here.

Fanservice was nice again. Yuri wiping her body was hot and the bathroom part was funny.

Hmmm, she has a phone.
Option A: Ask to use it like a normal person.
Option B: Go full dumbass.
Hmmm, a tough choice.

This is a facility to create god and the masks are angels..........seems legit.

I have really mixed feelings about this show. It's so bad that I'm actually really enjoying it so is it actually good? Is it purposefully bad?

Well, the show picked up considerably. Not that it was slow before. The deathball was entertaining, I like how he got to play baseball one last time in his life. Feel a familiar feeling. There was another Mask behind that door, I never suspected that. There are too many Masks!

Lots of action and new information. Still like Btooom in that you need to get on the helicopter and fly away, and still like Borderland in that you become a master of the realm if you win.

So, now we have three points of view, didn't see that coming. I get the feeling that in a parallel anime the brother is the main character. Or that they even planned it in that way here, but then someone said nahh, pantyshots.

Good chapter, the baseball scene was good, some errors in the animation but good.

More fanservice, I neither like nor dislike. is it unnecessary? Yes. Does not matter? Yes

Rika and Kuon making an appearance on episode 3. It felt so fast... I remember that Rika appear really late in the manga.

After these first 3 episodes I must say the show peaked my interest, I think the show has a great concept and a lot of potential, though the execution has been only been 'ok' till now so I'm not sure if they'll pull the full potential out of it.

Whoa ending with the gal who is close to god status looks hot and dreamy.

It was interesting to see Yuri's brother Rika point of view, he's going to be an interesting character for sure, and that whole speech about God's world etc is interesting too, I really wonder who's that white-haired girl at the end

Woah that baseball player mask is strong af and deadly. But his malfunction is the reason why he die. lol

But, Shinzaki is god-like? How did she achieve that status? She looks like a cute naive girl. Or it's just a "mask."

That baseball kamen was really interesting with it's powers but I think the brother's pov was the highlight for the episode. He's been a mystery for the first two episodes so it was cool getting lotsof focus for him

Wait I really thought Sniper Mask was the brother since he had Yuri's picture but apparently they are two different people.

That was dumb... Why the whole baseball thing when the other guy had a gun the entire time?? The time for him to pick up the ball and throw was time enough to simply shoot him. For some reason that scene got on my nerves.

Aaaaand more fanservice... I feel my brain shrinking every time it happens.

Quite an interesting and also a little confusing episode.

Nice baseball match. RIP that guy.

Yuri's brother got some screen time.

So, the Masks are "Angels...?" That's interesting.

Hmm, a new girl appeared. She's close to becoming a God?

Honestly, at this point i am asking myself. WHAT the HELL am I WATCHING?!

I ignore the unknown plot for now. But the dialogues, character interactions are SO BRAINDEAD. It feels like some 12 year old had his first Headfantasy when he was bored in school and was trying to write a FF.

Baseball guy was chill and even dropped some secrets of that world. Passing through these high bridges while masks are lurking around must be scary, I'm feeling Yuri ;p

Yuri has one sexy bod.



I wonder what causes someone to come "close to God" in this world. Is it kill count, or another variable entirely?

It was bland and the main character's personality was inconsistent
