On December 12th of the year 2025, I turned 21. This holds absolutely no bearing on the post, I just wanted to say that since I also brought it up in my post about the previous episode. Anyway, I've been loving turning on this series and seeing what occurs to the characters as they do their regular day to day things.

Early on in the episode, Becky and Martha come to pick up Anya for a trip to the zoo. It's the morning after Yor's dinner out with her co-workers, and she's waking up with fuzzy memories of what happened the previous night, but she's farily sure she embarrassed herself in front of Loid. She has to work up the courage to head out to the living room, and she finally makes it out after Anya leaves for her outing.

The episode opens with the recap of the series' premise before launching into the opening credits. It was short, to the point, and kind of amusing. The actual story itself sees Akane playing a lottery drawing, trying to win a particular prize. Kasumi is accompanying her. Akane manages to win the prize, which is a stuffed pig. As they head home, they are ambushed by someone in a mask, declaring that Akane will be their hostage.

As a paid subscriber for over a decade, I have to say that I've been quite disappointed at how downhill the site has gone, especially over the past five to six months.
