Of course it does, in fact it's all about portioning things of just right.

This joke requires an actual explanation. The Byakkotai (White Tiger Unit) was a force of teenaged samurai fighting for the Tokugawa Shogunate in the Boshin War against the Meiji regime. When Meiji government forces besieged the Shogunate at the castle on IImori Hill in October 1869, a small 20 man detachment of Byakkotai were cut off from the castle, and could only watch the siege from a nearby hill. Government bombardment set the surrounding town on fire, but through the smoke and haze the Byakkotai detachment mistakenly thought the castle itself was on fire and thus had fallen to the Meiji forces. Believing their lord was now dead or captured the young men decided to commit seppuku, and 19 of the 20 were successful. The joke here is that, like the overly exuberant Byakkotai, Hinami gets carried away in her reenactment and accidentally destroys part of reality.

You know she's not going to die if she states in the first pannel that she is going to.
