You fools! You're playing Uno in an already tense situation!

I have a feeling Maho is going to be the butt monkey in this anime...

Another good episode, though it wasn't that fun.

Great episode, I really loved the family talk there and a lot of symbols unique to Anno (poles, traffic lights, lanterns) which represent loneliness, alienation and hardships in human relationships. This made me even more surprised to learn that it was actually Kazuya Tsurumaki who directed this episode.
It's also cool how every character in the household had a role to fulfill, nobody was left out. The UNO game was particularly awesome, I absolutely adore the style of this scene, as well as incredible voice acting. You can really see that the seiyuu were having a lot of fun!

I'm looking forward to the resolution of Shibahime's arc so that we can focus on Arima, too!

One episode worth more than some other entire series.
It's back on track to a 10/10.
And don't ever think you know someone in full.

WTF Gainax, your recap animation had nothing to do with the recap narration. AND they recapped from the beginning so this time it was legitimately too long.
Couldn't be bothered to draw backgrounds today, so just rotoscoped and/or high-contrast / overexposures. Looks about as good as it did in Lord of the Rings, literally some of the worst animation I've ever seen.
This reminds me of the Doctor Who episode "Shada" that I watched last week, that replaced missing footage with animation. Here, it's like Anno replaced missing animation with (bad) photos. Why show a unrecognizable photograph of "food" instead of just drawing "food"? Seriously, was that supposed to be a tea cup?
Anno's a big fan of live action (only half his work is animated) and he mixes the two a lot. He should have just shown photos instead of these processed images.
As I mentioned yesterday, they resort to long blocks of exposition when building character backstories way too much.
And the cast expands.

That was surprising...the fact their entire conversation was around basically public people seemed a little strange.

Last episode made a point about how Miyazawa wasn't sure about what would happen when she wouldn't see Arima on a daily basis at school. So far she's learning to also depend on friends as well, so I guess it's working out better then I thought it would

Uno card game with actual Uno cards and not a copyright-safe stand-in was unpredictable (and yet another clever way to save animation budget)

Miyazawa mom telling her wish to have a daughter like that in front of her actual ones... lol

That slap... was deserved, honestly.
