This week, we get to see Our OG Party meet up for the first time in the real world, where they’re revealed to be… exactly like their avatars. In other words, Actual Sunraku is just as hyper and shouty as in-game. This does not win over the other pro gamer in the party, who’s reluctantly putting up with their antics because she trusts her regular partner (with a faint hint of “silent crush”).

We only get to see brief moments of the new game, though, because 90% of the episode is a huge exposition dump.

Verdict: four episodes to go, and not only do we have private matches between teammates, we have the actual competition, and occasional dips back into the underwater boss arc, which makes me think maybe they should have worked all this week’s exposition into the actual action.

(bringing in this serious fighting gamer would take this show to the next (naughty) level…)
