I am not sure what to make of Yuri unilaterally making the decision for putting Setsu in the freezer. The time off was probably necessary for Setsu’s mental well-being, but doing so endangered everyone else of that loop (Yuri was not Gnosia and Setsu was probably not, so they reduced human count by 2).

@rikka@ani.social :

I get the impression Yuri feels he/she can sacrifice individual loops if necessary, whereas Setsu is more rigid and wants to follow rules and win every loop. So in the other loop, I got confused why there was a problem of sharing information with Setsu (who turned out to be Gnosia), when it might only endanger the current loop and AFAWK not future ones. Maybe getting erased is painful?

I’m not sure I could have recalled who the members were for every past loop if I were Yuri. And I definitely can’t draw chibi characters they capture their looks nicely.

We got a tad closer to the truth, but Yuriko said Yuri’s deduction was wrong. They also started their conversation as if it was a continuation of a few previous loops prior. Did Yuriko know about other loops or was she just bluffing? She also seemed to have a lot of information she was withholding, why?
