I mean, you probably won't be happy with what ends up happening, but at the same time, it's kind of fascinating to watch happen in the same way a train wreck is.

(Not actually any spoilers, but marking it just in case.)

As I said before, though, after that the story goes back to being more like how it used to be.

Unless you like Momiji, in which case you might just be fucked.

(That's a bit closer to some sort of actual spoiler, so beware)

Dodgeball game is a fail, she think it's her fault and she resign ?

I figured that would be the immediate assumption, but not quite. Not gonna go into any actual details, but

It actually starts more with her characterization getting fucked. And then the story fucks her.

TFW I actually like Momiji... But the story seems to be structured in a way to make people hate her like that time she made "those" desings
Glad things will go back to "normal" soon

Yes, make them all girls, you've been given some good advice Hajime.

This girl is starting to piss me off, she have being so indecisive this whole arc! all this freaking trouble better be worthy, stupid tits!

Glasses girl from the scenario team is probably based on Kirara editors

Yes! Next episode is all fanservice!

Is it wrong of me? I thought this had a Shirobako feeling, but it seems like the MC/VPC has become lost in the shuffle, losing out to Momo and somewhat to her art-school-educated friend. They set her up as Ko's successor and an up-and-comer, and then it switched gears. I miss Aoba like that.

Sooo bath scene coming next chapter? XD

Eh, wait until this arc is over. Things improve a bit after that, storywise.

So far, at least.

Sooo bath scene coming next chapter? XD

Seems to me like the bath scene already happened offscreen, as per last narration box.

Finally caught up to the English translation
I was already reading it in Portuguese, but the translation was progressing slowly so these days I started the English translation from where the Portuguese one ended.

don't know what to feel about this one

Do any of you remember when Aoba x Hifumi was one of the main ships?
Yeah... those are some good memories...

Aoba x Hifumi comes back later, and in a pretty big way.

Even so, I have been handling all of the character designs for this game myself. I don't want to anyone else touch them!

See now, That's some bullshit. She is acting like a spoiled kid for goddess's sake!

It's all because you suddenly changed the whole game though, isn't it? That's why there's such a huge amount of work hanging over us right now!

Now Momiji's just blaming the director who chose her over Aoba who had reputation as PECO character designer for asking her to cooperate. I admit I don't know how is it affect if the director change the whole game and Hajime is also somewhat responsible. But blaming director for making a bullshit-game better? Didn't she learn about teamwork or cooperation at her college? Goddess, now, I really hope this game to become market-flop to break her fucking pride and teach her some life-lesson.

Only a few more chapters until this arc finally ends.

The current arc is actually pretty good. Outside of fucking over Momiji some more.

Relax man, that is precisely what this chapter is about. Feeling inferior and trying to prove yourself (way too aggressively; to both your co-workers and yourself) in a work place happens to some people.

Aoba did the right thing and talked with her in private. She has some issues with assimilating in her workplace, as she did say in their talk with Aoba about her being 'not useful' without her talent. This is very common in people who lack confidence in themselves and focus their worth on one aspect of themselves. It's a tricky thing to get around, and even the most genuinely talented people feel that way sometimes.

Also, I think she is a highschool graduate as well like Aoba, and is an intern at the company as well

Oh Please! What she did doesn't have to do with feeling inferior. Momiji blamed Hajime for her works being piled up which is WHY the director suggest her to share some of her works to Aoba who is already well known as PECO's character designer. She didn't seem to realize that's mostly because she didn't share her work with anyone else. The game they were making wasn't even big game like PECO or Fairies Story. And "I don't want to anyone else touch them!" just seem like a spoiled kid who was too protective of her dolls when other kid came to her house.

Aoba did the right thing and talked with her in private

Aoba has always been ideal employee from the beginning. Didn't blame anyone for anything even when one of her important work was taken forcibly. She understand and accept the result. She worked well with everybody in the company. I would've drop the manga immediately if not for Aoba.

Also, I think she is a highschool graduate as well like Aoba, and is an intern at the company as well

Except Momiji is not. She was an intern in the company by her college program along with Narumi.

Well, I personally can't wait for that.

Anyway, the whole dodge ball project has been going downhill since they make Hajime the director (althought it's funny that iirc in the anime, Kou said she will leave the company if Hajime would become her superior. Which more or less happen in a different order and manner here) without any prior experience and without really helping her. Especially for the art contest which was the biggest shitshow. Honestly, everything scream failure from miles. It would be a miracle if the game work better than the dinosaur one.

Surely you will momji, surely you will

Worst chapter in the entire series coming up in two chapters. Then things slowly start getting better again. (In my opinion)
