...*blinks a bit*...*sits down*
...*at a loss for words*
I know I say this a lot with this show, but this show is weird. But weird more in ways you don't expect. It was clearly made by someone who is simultaneously a bit pervy, deeply aware of classic sci-fi literature...and one of the best writers of dialogue for anime I've ever seen.
Okay...first of all....this two set absolutely killed Endless Eight, by which I mean EE looks like a lazy waste by comparison. But then most anything would. This is how you do a time travel episode in an anime. Short of Madoka 9...this was the best I've seen an episode take time travel. It also feels like it follows the speculation about self identity Iori set down in episode 4 of Kokoro Connect. In fact, I would nominate that episode and this in particular for Kerina favorites of summer 2012.
There is a short story by Arthur C. Clarke which this episode instantly reminded me of. But it's basically leading to the best/most groan-inducing pun....intended to be read in English...I've ever seen. Bar none, I have never seen an anime as weird and deeply Japanese in its oddity simultaneously embrace the US/english speaking fans with its puns and twists.
In short, no matter what this show does for the next four weeks of its run, it has earned a honorary award from me. Now more ranks, it wins. I can't even attempt to rank it anymore, it would not be fair to the other shows. So yeah, this show has transcended to another plane. Full review later but I wanted to give this show and episode the full and singular attention it deserves. See it. It appeals especially to the kind of fan and writer I am and it has the number 2 all time spot in the history of anime for me at this point.

Chapter Tonight
Going to try to keep to Wednesdays. Tuesday was my birthday. Had to rush a lot to get it to Wed but is done.
Sorry Rough Week
I got to 1700 words but not a finished chapter. Had some fun ideas. Here's Japanese versions of the Mecchen House song https://suno.com/song/653c2b44-2c0a-45e8-a1d9-1b19c29dff44 https://suno.com/song/d0e0f338-0032-41d6-9764-57daeeb79a41
Apologies no chapter Wednesday Music Here
I had to walk over for 5 miles on Monday for a doctor thing and then today it was even more walking after taking care of taxes. Blood test and other stuff related to health on Thursday but I should be able to get a chapter out Thursday or Friday. For now all the music via direct link from Suno And the others
Musical creations
I wanted to Premier a YouTube video I created with the music in particular but I might just have to link the MP3s because it's not behaving in the way that YouTube almost always chooses not to behave and deviantART is misbehaving almost as badly with the selection for journal being off the page and I can't select it I have to guess while I carefully mouse over it So this week has an eclipse, crazy traffic I have to endure, a huge doctors appointment, taxes, on top of taxes, and I'm really not sure if I'll be able to write a chapter for this week. I haven't even started it. But here's something fun I can share. OK it finally works and here is the files

Apparently, the pervy kid is grandpa - remember the initial part, and grandpa's reaction after the sundial was gone.
what i don't understand fully are the roles f the paradogs. I see them change to Watashi but it stops there.
