Wow wow wow.
What an episode, I don't know what happened but this episode is really great. This really did make me think of lake mungo, and the tone has shifted to something more alike to that. With some crazy time-loop urgency reality warping stuff mixed in. Whilst the series also keeps its campyness and funny charm. I honestly don't think there will be a better episode than this one. Kudo and Ichikawa are actually starting to grow on me. The show is actually trying to explain Kudo's weird quirks and he's becoming actually quite likeable. Whilst also building up the mystery of his more dark traits.
I really wannt to believe that Shiraishi was inspired by lake mungo in some way due to the handling of time and death and stuff like that. That shot in the beginning of the film with Rri in her house, and the payoff later is so reminiscent of themes explored in lake mungo.
That third act is also phenomenal, it being recorded as one long bit of footage really helps cut all the bullshit out, and focus on the story. That last sequence was so captivating and well made.
Kudo(s)!
Also its so crazy that think that this is the episode directly after the kappa episode. Ep 3 was such a fever dream
