| I feel as if this episode is somewhat of an exposition of the behind the scenes of animations, even if Chinese ones. Showcasing the conditions animation company workers faces, albeit magical ways. Can you call this 4th wall breaking especially when they mention about stuff happening when the episode ends? Didn't expect Wang Ling's temporary new world to be like this either. |

JinsokuFutsumen said: I think it's kind of both, as Funimation's episode name for it is "Extra: The Director is Not Home Today" while also being listed as episode 10.uhhhhhhhhhhhhh, well, it was a pretty solid episode, but like, what. lol, im confused, did that even count as episode 10? or was it a special of some sort, it kinda feels all over the place, this season. I was expecting better tbh. this isn't close to s1 in terms of story and actual progress. please let me know what you guys think. |

| While not related to the main story, I find this one of the most interesting episodes I've seen not just in this series, but in anime in general |
 |
| Pretty unusual and interesting episode, explaining behind the scenes |
 |
| now take a close look at the beginning of the episode, before all the 4th wall breaking stuff and compare it to the final scene. the one where he's standing by the windows and thanking the studio for creating their world... THAT final piece folks is what an animated show is supposed to look like. not the mixed-up mess in the middle and the plain and average opening scenes of the episode. unfortunately, no project ever made to that HD holy grail quality standards would ever make a profit... because they'd be killing staff members like lemmings heading for a seaside cliff. or like that poor dude who turns into a pile of dust and ashes right at his workstation. there's also a great deal of other little inside-jokes and tiny side-plots alongside some serious digs at AI rendering, CGA, frame rate commentaries, impossible to work with directors (as this one apparently doesn't mind being shown on-screen perving out to a loli action/fist-fighter PC game WHILE HE'S AT WORK!)... it's an interesting episode in that way too. and since there's SO MANY technical terms thrown about... Funimation's terrible Mandarin --> English isn't so crappy in this episode. ;) i guess folks working in the animation business like Funi would have translators not only familiar with the industry terminologies, but they'd have a bit of insight into how the internal mechanisms of a show should be discussed. all in all, just like Funi titled it, 'Extra: .... ' watch this episode only because it's fun. :) |
| just an ol school otaku enjoyin the life. don't sass me kiddies, i've been otaku probably since before you were born. leave me in peace and i won't bother you either. |
| This episode was super random but it was quite interesting and enjoyable. The last scene was very nice too. Thank you all animators/staff for their hard work in creating anime/donghua. |
| beyond meta, that episode was sublime. This show is masterful. |
| Quantum ille canis est in fenestra |
| WOAH that was a nice field trip |

| S2 is completely different compared to S1 in terms of pacing and moving forward with the plot. But, it's still enjoyable. The 4th wall breaking wasn't really obvious like Gintama. It did feel similar to what Gintama did. This perfectly shows the hard work and effort animators put into creating donguas/animes like this. It takes a toll on their own life but each one of them enjoy creating works like this. I laughed my ass off when he went to the ''real'' world and beat up the director to come back. Great episode. |

| What in the world is going on in this show lmfao |
 |
| why the hell they put a filler in the middle of story like this?? |
| this was such an out of place episode but it was fun to watch. |
I am out with lanterns looking for myself. -- emily dickinson -- |
| This episode is so cool and reminds me of Gintama lol just breaking the 4th wall |
 |
| Entertaining and amusing behind the scenes look mixed in with actual criticisms seen on many anime pages here on MAL. I found myself lol'g at the animators reactions, especially the one trnd to dust. |
| Well that was an utter waste of time. This anime is turning into trash more it keeps going. |
