I don't understand how there are people saying this episode bad. I would understand how the manifestation of the cast fears looks silly and their reactions, but that isn't even a big issue for me. I mean like after seeing Big Order's Ep today, Mayoiga is less bullshit.

As for the flashbacks, there were 4. And the way it was structured this episode didn't seem horrible to me. I mean hey according to MAL there are 31 characters (possibly a few more) and with the time frame that is known (12 Eps/halfway). And the way each flashback was handled was enough for a viewer to (hopefully) understand what has been bothering them thus wanting to start a new life.

Before Lovepon's flashback, I hated this Execute fuck. But having her father leave them, then the mother choosing a shitty monk for survival in turn causing Lovepon to become crazy made me hate her less. Nya girl's bullying and wasp/hornet situation was pretty fucked. But her liking toward guns was interesting to see. The silicon thing: all I got that it was a height problem and that he probably regrets getting it.

So TLDR, I didn't see this as a bad episode.

I might drop it, I just can't take it seriously. I feel no attachments to any of the main characters either. The flashbacks were forced, we knew nothing about the characters anyways but then they just dumped it on us.

He was short and did not reach the military's height requirement, that's why he implanted a silicone on top of his head to make him to taller.
... but I think the military found out that it was just silicone and he didn't get in, that's why he was moping around.

Okay, so all those other fears/traumas kinda make sense, but why is Mitsumune scared of a fucking penguin? And how are Pii-tan and Manbe almost becoming more annoying than Lovepon, who still isn't dead yet for some reason? And how can they so quickly conclude that Masaki is possibly a ghost, despite the fact that she threw up a few times and can clearly interact with people and objects?

I guess what they saw are all representation of their fears, what put them into a trauma... I didn't expect Jigoku to do that. >.< I feel sad for Nyanta, and we finally understand why Lovepon became insane.

The plot thickens again.

So there was just a book of articles lying around that just so happened to have some about Masaki missing? How come no one looked at the damn date to see how long she had been missing!? Kind of an important clue to piece things together.

Again, thread full of 'grown up' users who can't take it seriously. Oh how mature of you.
How many times you write something similar? We all know that you all are so much grown up.

I don't understand, if you hate this show that much, why you don't drop it? It's already 6th episode...

Back on topic, 5/5. Boob monster? Ok, pretty understandable, the first thing which he discovered was silicone for boobs, so in his brain silicone is associated with boobs.
Lovepon backstory was pretty intense too, of course I still don't like her, but at least I know why she is like this.

1. No, its nothing more than their speculation. Maybe she knew about this accident and she just picked up her nickname from that article. I doubt that she is a ghost. And if she is, then they all are ghosts in afterlife.

2. Did you even watch this episode? He was too small for army, so he put a silicone in the top of his head.

People complain that the characters are undeveloped.
People complain when we get to see more of their back stories.

I assume the penguin is Masaki's fear, that's why the create looked like a hybrid of two things, because it was trying to manifest both their fears at the same time.

this show is so hilariously awful, i want to drop it but i can't because it's too funny

like okay i feel bad for lovepon and cat girl, but did i really just watch someone get chased by a giant face mask? like ??? i cringed and laughed at the same time

update: i watched the rest of the epi and this show is literally just people getting chased by big and terribly animated things, as well as dudes being afraid of boobie implants 0_o

For me it's less about me not taking the content seriously, but more about me having problems not seeing the glaringly obvious problems with the execution.

The writing-director Okada Mari explained in an interview that this anime was created from a team-approach, in which every member could give input on things he or she wanted in the script. Okada's job was merely to put everything together in the end.
She herself implied that she had (and still has) doubts whether they actually managed to make a coherent whole...and for my taste, they didn't.

Admittedly, this is something caused by a cultural disconnect.
Ghosts in Japanese folklore are not the translucent spirits that move through walls that we know from Euro-American stories. They can be just as corporeal as real people, only that they are bound to certain places or events.

It depends on a story. Of course in EU/US ghost is generally something like " translucent spirit", but it's only generalizing. I know many folk stories from my country where ghosts = something physical.
And a monster which appeared in front to Masaki and Mitsumune was (probably) a hybrid of those two's fear, so I still think that they are all dead in some kind of afterlife world. Especially that we didn't see any ending of their backstories. That guy with trains probably killed himself, Nyanta was killed by bees (to be honest it looked more like hornets), and Lovepon was probably raped and killed by this fat old shrine pirest.

I was really hoping the "beast" wouldn't be an "everybody sees their greatest fear" type thing because it's been done a million times (and much better too) but hey, at least we got a giant titty robo crab monster. I' still hope the end isn't some cliche "everybody's already dead" thing.

The backstories weren't that bad, I liked Nyanta's. However, the flow was terrible, and I didn't see the purpose of focusing on these side characters when we still have almost no idea what's going on.

The best part was when Koharuuun ignored the tour guide's open arms and went for Valkana.

I feel responsible to my fellow human species to explain what is happening. I am not noting on the decency of your commentaries or overall understanding of the series, since if you can not it is not made for you.
Masaki is not a ghost, she is searching for her missing sister, which can be EASILY seen from the opening when the light shadow behind Masaki has different haircut.
The Penguin is a costume with someone or something inside it and a manifistation of Mitsumune's past, considering he called it Tokimune it is some sort related to his brother or some issue he created which did not go so well.
Those two points seemed to be the least fathomable for your silly lot. Have faith.

I liked the way the backstories were presented too (they are all so sad =[). Like you, I thought it might not be a good idea to focus on only these characters' stories, but now I think I understand why that choice was made.

By the end of the ep, they all come to the conclusion that the charas are scared and being chased by different things. It would have been odd to present the charas running from objects without knowing why they are running (or what they are running from). Like it is the case with Mitsumune, we don't know why he's running from a penguin =/

5/5 coherence would be proud to be called the same species as you. Those "monsters" are not fear but the past they were running away into "New Life", which could be qualified by fear. BUT IT IS NOT ACCURATE ENOUGH!!

The back stories weren't unexpected story-wise, but what are they really? They gave the general outline of the 4 characters' lives, but they weren't their "past" only. The monsters awfully looked liked their "failures" from which the characters had been trying to runaway from. I mean, everyone's past contains memories of many, various, personal events. So, I'm wondering why exactly 'fails' took over their minds.

I wish I could understand how "taking out the [Koharun omits "evil"] eyes" connects to "dragging the depths of your mind out into the open". Is it like ..., seeing with your heart? *scratches head* Anyone good in poetry? -_-;

What a messed up priest, poor Lovepon and her mother. She's having psychological problems and needs to see a psychologist asap. At the same time, it doesn't completely justify her current actions. I don't know how much I can blame her tho. Problems suffered as a kid can really mess you up.

Nyanta tho, so that's how she got her love for toy guns. Interesting.
The punishment she received tho, what a horrible bunch of bullies.

The silicone one... no comments. At least it was original.

Mikage's was the most relatable for me... I guess.

Basically the only ones who can survive in this village are the ones who have a strong mental and a complete control over their emotions.

So Masaki has a monster within her? It's either her or Koharu, I'm betting it on Masaki.
