----------------------------------------
This is a nice surprise! A special episode that's more of the same, and definitely not April Fools.

Meido and Kanamori decorating items for animals to safeguard eggs, but the different kinds of sharks end up getting passed instead. That rice bowl definitely is NOT part of the equation. God's order for Kanamori to design a bird that doesn't lay eggs, that's a pretty tall order. Starting from a hamster prototype that slowly begins to be transformed into a bird, Higuchi is laying the foundations for a bird mammal instead that looks more like a kiwi. Oh, and that rice bowl got accepted too as a bladder moon snail.

A multi-order request from God that combines the entire Design Team's ideas into a single animal, but you can count on them to get it done no matter how ridiculous the ideas may look and how they are perceived. But the road to getting there is a lot easier said than done, and Mizushima is lead designer in all of these. And what a better animal to survive in such conditions than the camel.

A surprise special indeed.

Was this always supposed to have 13 episodes (or a special that airs a week later)? Thought it ended last week.

So.. we got a special episode on April Fools' Day. Noice. One new thing I got to learn today that the Eggs can be of different shapes... SERIOUSLY?? Didn't know that. Then we realize that God wants a bird that doesn't lay eggs. And Hanamori being completely oblivious of the situation. But, they were lucky enough to make a KIWI that got accepted by God.
After that, we saw God giving everyone orders to make an animal that can handle various situations, and then we came out with a CAMEL. Really gotta give it em', everyone came up with their own funny idea but combining it together worked out pretty well.
Pretty good for a special episode.

Apparently this special episode is the one I like the least, maybe this is God's rejected episode?

Didn't know that kiwi's name was inspired by the sound they make, I had always thought that their name was kiwi because they looked like the fruit lol.

Oh my. This is actually a pretty good surprise in the middle of a stupid april fools prank. Seriously, i am already missed the main one xd.

Well, this one episode also had the same spirit. More bizarre order, more effort to realized it, more knowledge i got from their absurd origination design. Never expect that bowl can be the real animal eggs design in the nature. Never expect Kiwi bird originated from the male sounds, and it store its eggs at their poor bodies. Well, forgive me for calling you an ugly bird xd.

The for the last, never expect they even got a relay order that forced them to cooperated clearing such an absurd design. Such a nice way to end the series. Its a camel. Its honestly easy guess, i said. Hyping like crazy when my guess was right in the end. Lol. When they suddenly talked about the animal with a less source of water, with that full of fur design, can survived against an extreme heat and cold. the camel suddenly came to my minds. Then its ate needle, its clearly the cactus, and the sink part also hinted the real nature of desert ground. Like they showed me how its the same allegory with the snow-skating one. Nice education, Tenchi Souzou Design-bu....

7/10

Well this was a pleasant surprise, didn't expect a special episode at all. It was your usual educational fun episode though.

Those shark eggs are interesting, didn't know they had those kinds of shapes. Damn, Kiwi birds have it rough, their whole ass body fits the egg lmao. The second half was pretty great, I kind of guessed halfway through all that that it must be a camel and then it was confirmed when they said the setting would be a desert and stuff, that was great. Nice special episode, at least we got to hear the OP one more time. 7/10

It was funny how Kanamori started questioning her design ability. I could totally relate to her.

I thought the second order was a hippo until they had to make it live in places with not much water.

Just knowing where an animal is supposed to live gives a good idea about how they're supposed to look. That's so interesting.

Kanamori dragging the couch out of the office just to flop down on it was fantastic! Such a mood!

Happy to watch another episode, wasn't expecting it. But the design was a little off, the animation too. The characters were many times disproportionate.

The first half was extremely boring, 2nd half was the best the series has ever been. 6/10 just like the TV series

Gotta love how because of the riddle-like requests and the designer's creative processes its quite the mystery on what kind of creature they are creating until they mentioned it living in the desert, respect to the author for his creativity.
