Speaking of, I think I was wrong when I said this show wasn't a high-budget anime.
I mean, just think of the number of drawings used per episode.
Characters
Tsubame stole the spotlight from Kanamori halfway the episode. I thought the latter would be the star as the other two were just goofing around in the beginning, but Mizusaki's passion for making a realistic animation has won me over. Also, her role as a model was really shown here, as we saw advertisements with her face plastered all over the subway.
About our introvert main character Asakusa, her personality didn't falter, as she became worried when she learned they had to explain their project in front of a group of people.
Back to Kanamori, the way she analyzed things and thought of what would be the best in every situation solidified her as the most mature amongst the three.
Writing / Storyboarding
Kanamori had the funniest lines as usual, here's an example:
"Dearly departed 30,000 yen, please send a large group of your comrades to my pocket."
Meanwhile, Tsubame had stronger ones:
"Animation is supposed to be about motion, and animators are supposed to make stuff move!"
"I don't just want to make anime, I want to make animation!"
And... the one I wrote in the quote section above.
Unlike in the first two episodes where there was only one scene of 'Midori's Imaginary Adventure,' here, there were two. And the first one for me had the best storyboard.
Artwork / Animation
The art below looked quite simple, but its trickiness was intriguing:
And Kanamori's bag wasn't the only one that's cool, check out Tsubame's:
Lastly, I appreciate the animation in the second 'Midori's Imaginary Adventure,' a lot of explanation went there. If this anime was a teacher, I'd say he/she had great pedagogic skills.
Music / Sound
There was a new soothing BGM in this episode. If I'm not mistaken, it was when they were about to climb up and fix the roof.
