Turning the Tables

Aoi informs everyone to stop production on the characters, despite there being only three months until the first episode airs. Yumi begins revising the character designs based on the author's feedback emails. However, she struggles after Nogame voices his disapproval of the redesigns and gives out vague feedback. With an actual meeting with Nogame impossible, Watanabe advises they should start from the beginning again without anything to go on. After Aoi speaks with Yumi at her secret spot in the local park, she and Seiichi focus on the unaffected material outside of the characters, such as the 3D and backgrounds. Seiichi stresses to Yūichirō and Yuuji the importance of emotions over realism, later telling Aoi his advice was inspired by his experiences after the release of Jiggly Jiggly Heaven.
