I wasn't expecting them literally dive into the lore of Princess Connect in a way that anime watchers and fans of the game can understand it completely. That sequence where Yuuki dies is how Princess Connect Re: Dive starts, with a bad ending that triggers a series of resets until he finally defeats Kaiser Insight. We also got a glimpse of Kasumi and Yuuki's memory in the real world thanks to Ameth.

Currently I'm still on Chapter 6 of the game's story called the Forgotten Princess, so I still haven't completely caught up on the main story.

Great episode! Pecorine had to deal with a lot this episode and we saw what happened with Yuuki beforehand... Next episode we get to see Monika, the amazing skill 1 50% speed buffer!

Looking forward to the next episode!

It's "Tabidachi no Kisetsu" (Season of Departure) by Peco, Kokkoro and Kyaru.

So now the game and anime's lore is starting to connect to each other, hmm...

I wonder which end the anime will end up in.

(the game is pretty much all timelines in one, cause it's a Harem end where Yuuki pretty much met up with every single girl within a month, compared to the anime where Yuuki is meeting them one by one)

___ ___ ___

This episode has so many sad thing in it... T_T

Peco looking so scared in the castle (makes me want to hug her there)

Kiri dying (sorta... her body)

The animal farm girls is going through the same thing in the game, but Yuuki isn't there to save them.

Yuuki "died" countless times trying to save the world

They show'd one of the failed route where Twinkle and Gourmet teams up. (the original very first is just Twinkle, Gourmet didn't exist til Re:Dive)

Yuuki's decision making him stupider and stupider every time he "resets"... but yet he still chose to "reset" every single time. (you can see his pain as he bites down on his teeth while slowly moving his hand toward the button)

___ ___ ___

And then we end the episode with how it was suppose to end last episode before the teleport, PRINCESS STRIKE (too bad this isn't OP like this in the game, lol)

Kyaru is still going back and forth rooting for both the good and bad teams... lol

___ ___ ___

And well, guess the adventure continues, with Yuuki going to meet even more girls.

Yuuki doesn't necessarily get "stupider". His mental state as is because of what happened after Kaiser killed him and his old guild before this.

Eh, really? I thought anime with time loops or many alternate timelines tend to make them more explicit and give them more attention, like Steins;Gate or Madoka Magica.

Even though I'm up to date on the English version of the game, I'm still not sure what Kaiser has on Karyl to maintain Karyl's loyalty, other than whatever magical force is obscuring the lineage of Landosol's monarchy.

Wonderful episode, I feel like I just watched the final episode with a cliffhanger, šŸ˜….
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

Pecorine vs corrupted golem. The fight scene was well done, and the golem ended up in the trash heap.

saving a cat automatically put Kasumi in my fav char list on mal. Glad that Kiiri's consciousness was saved, looking forward to see her again and Kasumi later on. :)

Episode 5 was totally crazy, I didn't think it would have such a serious tone, I think that from this episode, the comedy will be on the side and they will show us the true story. Video Game players will already be aware.
But I was perplexed by this episode.

Damn, at first I thought PriConne is just another isekai/game franchise comedy thing, but it was fun all the way since the beginning. And now I am on the point of diving into some off-anime lore of the game.

This episode was fantastic. A bit wild on the fight scenes, but I liked it.

buhhh! That was something I would have never expected from the story
It had a strong impact, Yuuki on the verge of death was not nice to see.
Kaiser Insight is too cruel and a psycho, such a cunning present and Karyl didn't notice.

The end was quite nice with Pecorine and Karyl reunited.
tha failed tsundere act was very heartwarming in the end.

The double play of Karyl started to become more dangerous,
I hope she will realise that soon enough.

Man those shadows are creepy. The sudden quick head turn creeped me out.
Today, I may be a weak little bug that gets tossed in the wind,
washed away by the currents, and drowns, but tomorrow,
I may become the butterfly that spreads its colossal wings and flies the open skies!

A damn good episode,and some absolutely stellar animation(esp Peco's princess strike at the end).I rated this a 9 on it so far(I enjoyed the first season too,but this has a lot more),but this ep alone has me edging towards giving it a ten(though if the derpy wolves had been in this ep,I'd have given it a 12 at least:)
And finally we get to see a bit of Yuuki's past.

Poor Yuuki from that flashback, if they had Yukari with UE in their team then she would be able to heal him easily.

Omg so epic, and with the last episode we got more info on the lore \o/

So what we saw, Yuuki dying against the final boss etc, already happend ? But because of the redhair girl, he was sent back in the past to redo all of this ? (his memory at cost) and she wanna expect a different ending ?
I can understand that, I love this kinda story, but first, we also saw real world scenes, so before all of this, he was isekai ?
So hype to learn more ^^

And the last scene got me some tears, Pecorine and Kyaru <3

Oh boy what a huge play to create a conclusion of the previous episode. And this is not even the final, yet.

Alright. Really unexpected explanations, self-cleansing system become quite handy in those situations, i thanks for that. Still, its a shocking way to revealed more of Yuuki's memory like that. Yuuki memories quite unbeliavable too there, need to read some of the comment here to get a clear mind out of it. But holy shit, really? They both friends on real life? Damn shit, man. At least Kirii, or the body of those conscious shadow still preserved. So expect to see her again somehow later, after all shit done. Also more of Yuuki backstory way before this story even start. Its actually the reset story, re dive. Tyvm for 'another' enlightenment, you redhead queen....

Anyway, Pecorine and the imposter queen talks sure intriguing there. Asking her to eat meals together sounds like a great plan, Pecorine. At the end, Pecorine able to fight the despair of being forgotten and glare the desire for not giving up, its making the queen decided to undo eating her. However, even after Pecorine able to save the beastfolks village by defeating the golem and the shadows, the core of the golem was actually gone. Its her ofc, who else? Alright, what happen next surely intriguing me lot. Lets see....

Not sure what they were going on about but can't wait for more random adventures, cause all this heavy plot is not making sense rn so best to just focus on da fun stuff for now.

Warning for the spoiler, especially if you haven't played the game.

So does this mean the game and the show is an isekai?

So it seems like this world is a game become reality… right? I’d worked out by now that Yuuki had lived this life before but it still doesn’t answer my biggest question; just WHO is he?!

What exactly is a Princess Knight too? Yuuki is one but Karyl is too though I feel like she might be a fake version because she’s ‘Eustiana’s’ Princess Knight… so many questions!!!

So Yuuki is basically redoing his life again in a sense, well not that it really matters. I'm not watching this for the plot, but rather for the SoL moments anyway... and sometimes for the action scenes.

Is Yuuki always gonna start over whenever he loses against that hot villainess? Or this current reincarnation is his one last chance?
Pecorine looked awesome when she did her strike attack. Very cool animation!
