>>149863372
This
This wasn't really as fun as the premise warranted.
Papika seems like she went some crazy-ass adventure that would've been more in line with the energy of the previous episodes.
There wasn't even that sense of melancholy we got with the previous one.
I know we were all concerned about the change in writers and stuff but I hope this isn't indicative of what the show will be like going into endgame.
>>149863618
The high levels of yuri-bate made up for all of that.
10/10 episode
So /a/, did they fuq?
>>149863452
this style could potentially make the best looking epsiode so far...

Does Cocona love the Papika she knows?

So what are the most noteworthy theories so far?
>>149863890
Oh boy.
Someone should edit the regular papika in this.
>>149863775
If she didn't, she would've answered no right away.
>>149863890
>>149863955
Papika and Corona aren't real and this whole thing is one big illusion.
>>149863792
>>149863908
Cocona and Papika need to pay for their crimes. I want the quirky and reclusive Iroha back.
>>149863683
no. because Cocona knew that was not her true Papika and rejected her.
>>149863775
Is it really that subtle? The mere fact that Cocona had to ask if she meant "as a friend" means she does at least entertain the notion of loving her as a girl.
>>149862814
This anime gets more atrocious and retarded as the episodes come.
>>149863890
I'd flap the flip out of them if you know what I mean.
Anyone think this PI is similar to episode 5 PI, in that it tries to trap Cocona in a world where everyone is Papika?
>>149863955
Mimi = girl white address = Cocona's mother = Salt's wife
Mimi & Salt were KKK's ex-scientists.
Mimi was "killed" during experiments and became Fragments used by KKK for world conquest.
Salt formed Flip Flap to bring back Mimi and fight against KKK.
Papika raided KKK HQ in ep 1 and failed and her ex-partner died.

This is a Flip Flappers thread.
Episode was so-so but >>149863452 looks like it could be really good. I'm thinking it will be a Yayaka focused episode.
Also people being upset that the show's not gonna be as episodic anymore should have seen that coming since episode 1. It still seems to be trying to tell somewhat self-contained stories/ideas even if the overarching plot has to become a much bigger focus.
Guys, I can't take this anymore. Such amounts of lewd shouldn't be allowed.
>>149863775
This is homoforsure
>>149864484
Vivid Strike is fucking awful.
But yeah, like anon said, this is enough off-topic chat.
All the Papikas have names but which name goes to which Papika?
Every alter ego Papika was better than the real one.
>>149864674
The boyish Papikas sucked, though. As well as the one in the booth making funny faces.
>>149864674
>>149863775
I wonder where we will go from here.
Is it possible we will have some super avant garde anime about a girl coming to terms with her homosexuality?
>>149864468
That was her robotic side ?
>>149864731
as you described this show is far worse than Gay Bears
>>149864662
I'm guessing it's just order of appearence.
>>149864469
Strike is complete shit in the yuri department. Rinne and Fuuka makes no sense. I can't see why they should give a fuck about each other.
Complete fail on the main characters. Seven Arcs should just fucking die already.
This guy is the one from the PV on the white coat.
He looks straight out of Gurren Lagann in this shot
>>149863354
this episode was the worst of them all by far
What is he doing? Doesn't look like hacking, more like story writing
>>149864823
>Salt hacking KKK
>>149864740
It has to be. Its the left arm which is used to play with the bow. I forgot its normal here. Its just odd how she has a robotic arm in the OP while playing a string instrument.
>>149864816
he shares Salt's eyes
>>149864821
My only beef with this episode was the out-of-fucking-nowhere Papika in a submarine thing. The ending in the field was downright weird, too. Everything fell apart in the last couple minutes, flashback notwithstanding.
I enjoyed the rest of the episode, though, if only to find out what would happen next.
So Cocona went to a love hotel hoping to draw out a stupid sexy Papika, but then couldn't follow through?do you think she was relieved when it wasn't male papika
>>149864816
Is he the KKK leader?
7 episodes in, still making no sense.

I hope there's no befriending for Rinne, just an early grave.
who /papito/ here
>>149864821
Unfortunately I agree. It isn't terrible but it's not quite up to par with the other episodes. It wasn't as focused and raised some more questions without answering much if anything. There's a chance for some clarity or follow up in the coming episodes though.
Reminder that she wanted to kiss a boy but not a girl.
/u/ got told.
>>149864899
It will be like that until the last episode. Its going to be one of those "wtf did I just watch" shows.

Condensed your post.
And also, >>149864544
I'm believing more and more that the real world Cocona lives in isn't actually the real world. Too much inception shit going on here for me to take it at face value at this point.
what did they mean by this
So what was Yayaka up to?

>>149865067
steam hurts like a bitch
>>149865103
There was never any doubt that Papika is the best. She even plays best girl in Street Fighter.
Yayaka is a refreshing take on the "best friend is actually a bad guy." So far it looks like they're still friends, Yayaka even goes out of her way to help Cocona a little and worries for her safety, at least when she's off the clock. Then this episode set up the "Yayaka will defect and join the good guys" plot which will probably involve Yayaka learning she can get what she was wanting/protecting with Cocona and Papika's help without the moral dilemma of working for the bad guys.

it totally suprised me how CCN and YYK still acted like close friends at school, but it's pretty cute and maybe even more realistic than what i expected.
I mean both work for their respective organisation but they don't seem like they are taking it too seriously, especially CCN.
Now that i think about it, it would seem kinda forced if they were mortal enemys because of it.
Really interesting approach, i don't think i've seen something similar

They STILL need to introduce the loli too. I would have enjoyed 13 episodes of drug fueled shenanigans in parallel worlds but maybe the plot will be handled better in the coming episodes. This was still the writer that did the previous 6, wasn't it? The other writer begins from here on out.
You remember when people were trying to say in episode 3 that Papika's daisuki's were only meant in a friendly way. They got told this episode.

No, the director of the show started writing the show this episode.
>>149864860
PI altered her nature.
It even gave Toto bewbs.
>>149866041
Holy shit.
This ancient desert plant wants to add you, the a little girl, to her /u/ BDSM harem.
What do?
>>149865950
It wasn't because they revealed things. The ep felt just a little unfocused and they could've gone even stronger with the Cocona doubting theme instead of delinquent shenanigans shown in stills. It just wasn't that cool or interesting to watch.
Next episode looks really good straight from the art direction, I don't think anyone would mind more revelations if they're actually good and the context is interesting
>>149865950
They didn't really explain anything we hadn't figured out already. A few speculations were confirmed and a few ideas where the story could go were confirmed but ultimately the whole Hidaka segment amounted to them telling us Flip Flap don't even know what Pure Illusion is really.
>>149866114
Well the good thing is that its soft subbed so it can be removed with ease, still people waiting a week for this is hilarious.
Did the otaku go bankrupt from buying Love Live? This should be selling more
>>149865614
I think they are just friends.
Cocona seems to prefer boys.
But of course people will hamfist yuri everywhere, this is /a/, after all
>>149866082
We already have the improved version.
>>149865950
> the worst EP so far
nope
>>149866179
Cocona needs heart pupils
>>149866136
Yeah, it felt really shallow. Like the guy was more interested in showing striking variations on the character's design than actually telling the underlying story. I really think that's what it was-- he does not have the focus that the original writer does.
I don't care who writes the next few episodes as long as it isn't the director.
>>149866136
That was all part of the Cocona doubting theme though. It was her seeing that people can change through many different Papika's, it was made fairly clear through the conversation in the Bed that she was rejecting that change though when she said she wanted her Papika suggesting she also wants her Iroha back and her reality not some altered PI one.
This ep was kind of a let down
I didn't like the fact that they did some shitty flashback and plot explanation at the beining that was a lost of time
Also the whole episode wasn't really fun nor had this melancholic feel
>>149866231
The director would have determined all the content of the previous episodes too you realise? Any concept that made it into this show would have had his OK and line of the script he didn't want would be gone immediately. No matter who the episodes are written by they are also written by the director.
>>149865916
That's gonna be my evening read now
I really hope we get a batshit crazy PI next episode. Something like ep 2 or 3. I miss the extravagant worlds.
>>149866300
You're in luck.
>>149863452
>>149865067
I like how she imagined herself together with Papika there. Cocona just can't without her.
>>149863775
It's nice. They could just go full ADVENTURE! with this show, but they take their time to tackle these issues. And they don't need to put the universe into a bottle to spell it out.
>>149866300
Next ep's world looks like easily the best one since 2 but it all depends on what they do with it. If it's just wallpaper for a character story that could have happened in any place then it won't be that interesting, if the world actually factors into the plot of the episode then it'll be neat.
I bet Grandma will be the last boss
>>149865910
>the bump-covered cone is right between her legs
>>149866351

>>149866300
>>149866357
Oh shit, okay. Didn't even catch that in the preview. This should be a good one for sure.
>>149866238
The end implied that she was "lost" through all that though. So in the end this shit was just confusing and it's hard to say whether Cocona's takeaway was that changes are good, bad or should be taken on their merits. All we can say is that she was happy to have her Papika back at the end.
>>149865069
Getting NTR and contemplating suicide.
>everybody lusting for cocona
I have seem this before
I think she’s still a girl here.
>>149865950
Keep in mind "worst ep by far" is still pretty far from bad.
Ep7 just didn't have much that stood out. The PI was just the normal world but empty, the Papikas were cool but not like gokigenyou or switch places with Iro levels of interesting or gung-ho potato levels of awesome. Succubus Papika was the highlight of the episode for me, and I really liked that it did something no show ever does, which was basically that entire scene. You never see something with yuri stop to examine how the characters actually feel about each other.
The bits that expanded the plot are nice but we already knew some of them. The bit at the end was a cliffhanger that we can speculah about but not much to dissect. Iro being sort of fucked up now is important I suppose.
It was a good episode and it did some things the show needed I think, it just wasn't as great as the others, which is acceptable since the bar was kind of high.
>>149866457
>still bigger boobs than cocona
>>149866448

>>149866341

>Tags: yuri; ahegao; mindbreak
>I found my lost Cocona
Does it mean Papika also experienced different versions of Coconuts? or Cocona was the one who was actually "lost"? DEEP. Also wondered if the twins and Yayacuck experienced someone else.
>>149866412
I get the feeling that was the point. It didn't matter really if they were good or bad she would just prefer things to stay as they are. Just like at the beginning of the series.
>>149865992
no
>>149866238
What's important is that she realized Papika is more than just her own perception of her. Papika and Iroha are individuals with their own feelings and doubts. To put more importance in the way she feels about others rather than the way they feel about themselves was selfish.
Cocona even broke her promise with Papika at the end of episode 4. She did go away, but Papika of course came to keep her promise and catch Cocona as she fell.
>>149866457
I'm very certain all the Papikas were still girls. They were just they "boyish" aspects of Cocona's personality brought forth.
>>149865910
Unf
>>149866504
Probably Cocona was lost and Papika was in a wackier setting that involved building a spaceship out of junkyard parts.
>>149866166
It's good, indeed, but not THAT good. There are better options this season and it clearly reflects regarding the sales.
What did he mean by this?
>>149866504
I hope Papika didn't fug one of them.
>>149866553
>junkyard parts
That was the pipe they slept in at school
>>149866504
I think she spent the whole time working on the spaceship, and searching for Cocona. Even if she did come across some weird Coconuts, she probably just told them to fuck off and they smell funny.
>>149866504
Cocona was lost in the Pure Illusion. That was made apparent by her realization when Papika saves her. Yayaka even warned Cocona that she was a dummy and gets too drawn in by the fantasy.
>>149866554
Sales just show you that idol and homos sell. The rest are dead.
>>149866398
or take the "next step"
>>149866566
Life cannot exist without conflict.
>>149866483
I was about to say something similair. I don't think there was anything wrong with the episode but I probably won't be counting it among my favourites. It felt kind of functional as a bridge between episode focused with a splash of plot to plot focused with episodic PIs. Now that the characters can essentially travel through time in PIs we can get them to go anywhere in those PIs whilst still keeping it relevant to the plot.
>>149866504
Papika probably encounters different Cocona as well but quickly dismiss them as not her Cocona.
>>149866586
Well I know that, I just assumed that she put the rest together out of all the other crap near the pipe pad.
>>149866527
How was this Papika a girl?
>>149866483
The other were good, this one was trash.
Boobies here too.
>>149866504
The impression I was under was that Papika and Cocona were experiencing the same thing but separate from each other. So like a double PI?
Though Papika built a motherfucking space ship so perhaps Cocona's PI was from herself and thus quiet, empty, and melancholic while Papika's was from her and thus fucking nuts, allowing her to build a space ship, and both PI's contained illusionary versions of their partner?

>>149866666

I guess Mimi is Cocona's mother (and Salt her father?). If true it's interesting how many parallels there are with Evangelion. There was even a direct reference with the train scene today. You have Salt (Gendo) trying to obtain some sort of instrumentality (Deeper levels of Pure Illusion? Consciousness of humanity?) all for the sake of reuniting with Mimi (Yui). Cocona (Shinji) doesn't seem to get along well with Salt's (Gendo's) brusqueness. Possibly Mimi (Yui) sacrificed herself and incorporated herself somehow into Cocona (Shinji). The fragment?
>>149866678
The last time a scene took place here there was a group of people.
This was proof that everyone was missing, not just her family
The coffee is still hot. The inhabitants left in quite the hurry.
>>149866632
Maybe like internal conflict too?
Just watched it, creepy Papika best Papika.
I'm starting to find the lack of structure or logical rules to the Pure Illusion adventures a little frustrating. It seemed like Cocona needed to find the real Papika, she got fed up, that hole appeared, and the Papika turned up at the last moment in her pipehouse that can now fly to save her. I don't know, the way anything can happen kind of means every scenario is devoid of tension for me. Not to mention how hard they try to obscure whatever it is that's really going on.

>>149866483
>the Papikas were cool but not like gokigenyou or switch places with Iro levels of interesting or gung-ho potato levels of awesome
Actually I think the concept of multiple Papikas was awesome and the setting was eerie and meaningful, just the execution was lacking. A lot of the transitions were clumsy and jarring. it flowed badly, which made it difficult to maintain immersion. It's something that Ep2 suffered from in a few places whereas the "best" episodes were basically perfect.
I think it's a flaw in the director's storyboarding, which is revealed when he tries to do a dense episode. His Ep1 was perfect because it was a slower-paced story.
Also dropping Yuniko was probably a mistake but I'll reserve judgement till next ep.

>It seemed like Cocona needed to find the real Papika, she got fed up, that hole appeared
You missed it, Yayaka was holding the fragment when she showed up, her and the twins left the PI and it collapsed.
Why would they delve into the mystery about PI only to have an episode being an excuse to display multiple versions of Papika? Not much was even accomplished or told aside from the beginning and the flashback. They should've aimed a lot higher than that.
Hopefully next week will be a return to form. I'm not having much faith in this new writer if that's the cause.

>>149866812
Why is she taking off her clothes in broad daylight?
>>149866787
The hole opened up because Yayaka took the Amorphous so the world started to break down like the PIs have been shown to do. Cocona was so oblivious to what was going on around her it almost got her killed, or lost in some otherworldly plane.

Quantum mechanics is by definition metaphysical: it's regarding the fundamental makeup of all things and developing new theories for it because it behaves differently from other forms of matter. Also, it requires many metaphysical presumptions including the idea of a unified universe.

I will also reserve judgement until next ep though.
>>149866911

Shitposting aside, a lot of people seem to agree that this was a subpar episode. I don't give a shit about new or old writers if the show gets back on track starting next week and this one was just an anomaly. The fact that the director had a significant writing role this time is worrying though.
>>149866876
>>149866892
She's changing back into her school uniform. At that point, she's probably realized no one else exists in that world besides Papika.

Forget about it then. We'll see where things go from here.
>>149866872
Papika asking for sex and questioning the nature of their relationship was a good step. But keep in mind this ain't a romance animu. I fear someone may die after a confession.

He didn't storyboard or direct this episode himself though. He only storyboarded episode 1 and 2 so far. Do you pay attention to staff at all?
>dropping Yuniko was probably a mistake
Doubtful everything Yuniko wrote that got into the show was by the directors approval and after any changes he wanted made.

The director has a significant writing role in every fucking episode. You don't think someone just comes up with the script and then he has to direct that right?
>>149866566
Without friction between worlds providing stability to reality, pure illusion (everyone's perceptions/wants/desires) would be constantly changing everything. Leaving no steady foundation to build something real.
This location is interesting since we assumed from the OP that it was a pure illusion, but it's actually part of the real world. It probably looks like this because PI spilled out in to the real world and changed it during the Mimi incident.

I've always felt like this is some kind of /v/ spill over or something. There is no reason why a story should keep you "immersed", it is a perfectly valid form of storytelling to make the viewer acutely aware they are being told a story.

He did you're right. I misread it previously and didn't check before disagreeing. That kind of makes me look dumb. Good thing this is an anonymous imageboard.
Okay here is the impression I got out of this week's episode:
-next week they went into young Salt's PL
-Salt and Mimi(who looks like or might be Cocona) seems to be a thing
-they are collecting shards of Mimi trying to restore her
So once Mimi is restored will Cocona still exist? Is Papika created to gather shards of Mimi? Will Papika still exist?
>>149867195
Problem is that in the absence of immersion, there wasn't much else to make the episode meaningful.
So, were the Papikas just a figment of Cocona's imagination while the real one was busy searching for Cocona? If so, what can we take away about Cocona's psyche from that? Especially with succubus Papika wanting to have sex with her.

What are you talking about? All she asked was if Cocona wanted to do something fun.
wew
>>149867326
I have no idea what you mean by that. There was plenty that was meaningful in the episode. I say that about immersion though because it is understandable why you would want immersion in an interactive medium like a game, you are literally playing the character in most of those so a good game will immerse you in that world. That isn't the case at all for anime. You aren't supposed to feel like you are in that world or on the sideline watching the events unfold. You are being told a story with moving pictures and words. It is hard to parse what is even meant by "immersion" in this context.
>>149867335
Cocona was looking for Papika. The Pure Illusion was showing her "Papika" but she realized that those weren't actually Papika.
>>149866276
Anon, the complaint isn’t so much about the content of the writing and rather the technical skill behind it. And Yuniko was clearly better.

That was the point though. The world shifted her from place to place, as shown by her at times being surprised by the new surroundings.
>>149867405
She wants to become a boy so she can love Cocona without being gay.
>>149867411
Literally nothing wrong with the writing this episode.
>>149867400
>Anon forms a harem.jpg
>>149867335
The Papikas were there because Cocona needed company. Even when Cocona was lost in a world without people, Papika was there in whatever role she needed.
Even a whole parallel universe isn't enough to keep her away from her Cocona.
>>149867335
>If so, what can we take away about Cocona's psyche from that?
That she's a repressed child dealing with an increasingly stressful environment partly due to her own understanding of the world around her being challenged. What do you expect when you're constantly plunged into PI? It's a miracle they've gotten out scot-free from most of them.
>>149862814

>>149867149
Girls don't fart you dum-dum
>>149867407
Immersion not literally as in you're in the protagonist's shoes or involved in the world, but simple engagement. A good story draws you in. Otherwise you're left not caring much about or feeling for the characters and their circumstances. And in the absence of that, the episode could've had a concept or twist that was intellectually stimulating in some way, but it didn't.
>>149867335
The PI could have taken that form from Cocona's fears from what happened to senpai. But then the fake Papikas also take on their own agenda for self-preservation, like a trap trying to keep Cocona distracted from her objective, with the seduction being that last gasp effort.
>>149867492
This is why the show is flopping, star making fucking sense. You can't make a story that doesn't make sense just because "lol girl meets girl." Yuri flag will polish any turd as long as it has even the slightest amount of yuri.
>>149867467
In terms of shot composition I would say this was one of the best episodes there has been for a while too. Lots of interesting looking shots and framing choices like pic related.
>>149867552
There wasn't any infodump. I have no idea what "less fleshed out characters" is supposed to mean. If anything we got a deeper insight into Papika and Cocona's relationship this episode than ever before.
>>149867565
I like this explanation.
>>149867226
>this guy still shitposting
Read this, retard.
>>149867335
I thought that the PI wanted to prevent Cocona from meeting with the real Papika and/or returning to her world by offering to Cocona the new "improved" Papikas. That PI probably figure out that Papika is the most important person to her.
>>149866865
That's because the multiple versions of Papika part of this ep was so Cocona could explore how she should feel about Papika and the consequences of their actions in Pure Illusion.
Which brings up an interesting question: is it just coincidence or is there a reason why the PI they landed in was exactly what Cocona needed at that time? Seems like either Cocopaps or Mimi are influencing their destination.

Those roles are labeled in the credits. It's not spoilers.
The fact that the KKK told Yayaka in this episode that she wasn't very useful because she can only follow Papika/Cocona or Twins into PI and can't open her own lends a lot of support to the tracking chip theory.
If PI can only be opened by certain times by certain people then knowing where the other group of people who can do that are to steal their fragments when they go first is really valuable.
It explains why they would let Cocona go, as long as they are more powerful Cocona and Papika just serve to give the KKK team more worlds more often to take fragments from.
>>149867861

>>149867633
This is a dumb issue of semantics. Engagement and immersion are practically synonymous in the context we're discussing. You literally interpreted the word to mean feeling like "being in the world" like a video game, when we're talking about an anime to begin with, a medium simply observed.
I care about the characters, but bad flow in the storytelling as well as poorly executed ideas lead to a removal of tension. There were barely any stakes. Papika was gone for more than half of the episode, and Cocona simply dwelled over an issue of who she truly saw in Papika (and supposedly the consequences of PI, but that was not reflected in the meat of the episode). As expected, Papika magically also saves Cocona at the end just as alluded at the start when she mentions she would "catch her if she falls".

Quantum mechanics is not dealing with ontology.
It deals with super small particles, by solving some Schrodinger's equations ( yes, the guy with the goddamn cat ), ontology is what you get. Philosophy just looks at it and mistakes it with ontology, sorry but it is not. IT IS A CONSEQUENCE FROM QUATUM MECHANICS.
I don't deny that ontology shit is a part of metaphysics, my point is the whole metaphysics has nothing to deal with it physical version.

Multiple Papikas is an interesting idea on the surface, but it was neither much built upon beyond being a series of changes in appearance throughout the episode, and nor did we learn anything new or significant about their relationship past what we already knew from previous episodes. We know now that Cocona prefers the true Papika over a series of archetypes, and how is that novel?
>>149868105
Yes. Girl in white dress, and the same VA as Mimi according to the credits. Someone also looked into the sub files and found the girl listed as Mimi back in the first episode.

I'm saying there is no assuming. They have the script.
>>149868178
>nor did we learn anything new or significant about their relationship past what we already knew from previous episodes
Are you actually serious? They literally discussed real love openly.
>>149868022
Wait people are saying that 6 was complex? That was the most straightforward FliFlap episode yet. It's heart breaking but there's nothing complex about it.

>>149868251
How would anyone explain quantum physics to me?
>>149868248
Oh, that script. You're right.
>>149868251
It would start and end with "No you can't build a rocket out of a pipe."

>>149868249
Sure, I'll give you that. But are you saying that it was worth an entire episode just for that one scene? There have been undertones of love since the start of the show. Granted this week took it to the deepest level yet, but it still makes the multiple Papikas somewhat of a waste of time/missed opportunity for a deeper story.

It's not a waste, it's literally just them acting out Yuniko's own thoughts about what constitutes yuri.
>>149868251
>Imagine if you could never be sure of both where Cocona is and how fast she's moving. You could hold her really tight, but she would start shaking uncontrollably and possibly fly out of your arms. And if you limited her movement, say by locking her in a room, you couldn't be quite sure of where she is on that room.
>Weird shit starts happening when you have more than one Cocona.
>>149868446

>>149868382
The whole episode was themed around accepting change in people or not, its one of the biggest parts of the series, Cocona was unwilling to face and accept change at the beginning of the series with her school choices and she still seems to be now with Papika, Iroha and reality. The multiple Papikas was certainly novel, tell me of another story that has employed that to the same effect in anime? You can argue it was poorly executed if you want but to say it wasn't a novel idea is ridiculous.
Anybody got this for last episode? Possibly this episode as well, otherwise I'll make one
>>149868211
Oh no. Don't tell me they are going to resolve the yuri by making Papika Cocona's actual flesh and blood oneechan? Who had a shard implanted in her ankle and has not aged since that day, and now 13 years have gone past and her imouto now is Jr High age and has a lesbian crush on her.
But that would make CCN x YYK a legit pairing.
>>149868462
>Nash
Fuck I should have figured
>>149868397
If she joins Papika and Cocona how would the KKK be able to fight 3 lesbians led by a Yayaka?

>>149868446
there was one very smooth scene where Cocona was walking on the tracks that strongly reminded me of their ED animation in Sora no method and some of the OP animation in Dimension W
>>149862814
Can anyone explain this anime to me? I dropped it after the first episode but threads keep popping up like it's a godsend.
i thought this episode and 4 have been the best so far
in terms of balancing both playing around with interesting ideas inherently associated with the themes of identity established and built upon since the first episode as well as adding a little bit more into the pool of expository understanding of the show itself intradiegetically
>>149868651
How dare they post content related to Flip Flappers in a FF thread.
>>149868651
No?

It's been 7 weeks of miserable existence and absolutely nothing of significance has happened in this show.

anon, you don't have to try so hard to fit in, we accept you
>>149868270
>Papika is immortal
That's actually a pretty credible theory at this point.
Another is that Cocona grew up in PI, thus 13 years for her was only a couple of months for Papika.

God's work anon.
>>149868783
Japanese mayo is not the same as Western Mayo.
>>149868691
One could try, but it would be like explaining the tune of a song. Sure you could probably get the point across but an explanation without the experience is lackluster and does not accurately portray what makes the song/show interesting.
>>149868615
The problem was not that they got her over it- they erased it. And since people's personalities are the sum of their experiences removing the most traumatic one in her life made her a different person.

If you can't explain quantum physics to a Papika you don't know quantum physics.
>>149868522
I agree that the episode seemed to revolve around a theme of change, or accepting change in some way. It might've been that the multiple Papikas represented Cocona trying to come to terms with a Papika that's dramatically different in many possible ways. I'm not seeing what the destination of that route is, however, seeing that she eventually desired the original Papika anyway and ended up being saved by her. Seems like we're right back where we started with Cocona being against change, and the changes in Iroha that resulted from the PI.
At any rate there are semblances of a novel idea but it's hard to tell what the writers even aimed for here. In that way it's poorly executed too.
>Am I not good enough?

Was Papika in control of what version of hers she'd use to approach coconuts?

No, it was shown on her hand /after/ her ankle is shown glowing. There's no shot of her actually grabbing the fragment, true, but that's irrelevant unless you're suggesting she pulled it out of her vagina.

>>149868906
They were fake Papikas projected by the PI with the intention of distracting Cocona from her objective(friendship and fragment collecting). They all had ahoges pointing downward while real Papika has one pointing upward.

>>149869101
If this is the only bad episode out of the bunch, it doesn't matter. If for instance FlipFlap has an amazing last two/three episodes, people will remember it as a great show for how it ends.
>>149869192I USED TO READ WORD UP MAGAZINE
>>149868897
The arc isn't even over yet (most likely) so of course the motivation and ramification aren't completely clear.
In any case I don't think this episode is about Cocona preferring no change and staying where she is at all. Instead it's foreshadowing that she accepts Pipika no matter who she really is, she doesn't need her to bend to her desires (thus even though she was having great fun with all the changed Papikas she's still wanting the real one). It's clear pretty soon Papika will have some of her memory back and maybe she got changed like senpai did in the past and it will be up to Cocona to save her or something.

Also that bread is really thick, how the hell do you toast something like that?

Seems unlikely. They saved some budget this ep with the stills and flashbacks.

>>149869161
No, it's served at the cafeteria every day. And yet Japanese still prefer processed, plastic-packaged, overly-quirky food imitation to real food for some reason.
>>149869150
Production of Japanese mayonnaise, of course.
Shit's not easy.
>>149869283
Why are you trying to force fanbase wars? Are you mentally ill?
So how would you link the idea that Mimi from the flashback is Cocona's mother with the dreams Cocona has and the "welcome back"? Back to where? To her? To PI (implying she's a native from there)?
There is still a possibility that it was not Cocona's mother and it's something else entirely.

I'm getting tired of this.
>>149869233
I think the clearly gay one is Yuuna. She seems asexual but she's project the dyke every minute.
Tougou is more just emotionally broken and thus very obsessive over Yuuna, i.e. her new nakama.
>>149869250
It's definitely not a good standalone episode especially when viewing the show weekly, but if they build upon it in the future I'll gladly change my opinion of it in retrospect.

No, I'm right. You're just too dogmatic to realize it.
What a shitty episode. There really is nothing to this show but fake yuri bait and ripping off other franchises.
>>149869516
Yeah, now that I think about it. It could have been something to do with what happened with Senpai.
Maybe Papika went into that memory thing and altered something.
>>149869347
Hibike and FliFla, indeed
Add Natsume and we have a deal. All the rest is forgettable, irrelevant trash.
>>149869477
Tougou is actually confirmed to be 100% gay. Staff confirmed and all.
Yuuna is somewhere around 99%.
When questioning how gay the two of them are all you have to do is remember that at one point there was a fade to black of them practicing kissing a dozen times for a play while they were alone in their room.

.....no she wasn't. You literally can't see what she's wearing. There's no collar or anything.
What if the last episode was them choosing to stay in pure illusion together? Living in Papika's sort of fantasy world pipe, bit like Viral's dream family in TTGL.
>>149869853

Cocona's fears are so sexual.
Why doesn't she like carrots, though?
I haven't been paying attention or hanging out in FliFla threads. Has Cocona always had this backpack?
>>149869720
I actually have a much better opinion of 3 after 4 and 5, but using what I thought of the episode as it aired as baseline for the ranking.
My issues with 3 were the way Cocona and Papika acted, the way the "you wanted to hurt Papika" was so easily set aside as they apologized to each other, and how the balance between the moments with Cocona's life in the real world and the PI adventures that I had enjoyed in the previous two episodes was suddenly gone.
4 solved that last issue by providing a more character-focused counterpart to 3. In revealing how PI influences the predisposition of the ones that enter it, 5 solved my issue with Papika's attitude and made the "role" line regarding Cocona and the mask have more context to it. It's also much easier for me to accept the "wanting to hurt Papika" thing as no more than an amplified version of Cocona's initial thoughts upon realizing she had been separated from Papika when arriving in that PI since the setting itself was seeking to pit these superpowered entities against each other. The existence of roles also explains Papika's physical strenght in the setting, etc.
>>149870014
Too phallic.

>>149869909

>>149866398
I don't know if there are a few vocal Cocona x Yayaka fags that always manage to find new fanart of them to post, or that this couple has much more fanart than Papika x Cocona which doesn't make sense to me.
Either way makes me a little sad.

Why are you making gross generalizations on "Western bread" just because you and everyone you know are low-class plebs who consume previously-flash-frozen, factory-made, thawed supermarket bread? Bakeries exist, and the fact they do is because people buy bread from them.
