Hello, Patreon family. Please enjoy your unedited access to my detailed analysis of Takopi's Original Sin Episode 5.

I have not been this confused about an episode's timeline since A Silent Voice or the earlier part of Frieren: Beyond Journey's End! What an impressively wild writing and plot twist revealed in this episode, WOW!

P.S., Supporters, the unedited version will be available before the YouTube version goes live on 9/3!

So people can correct me on that but this is what I believe happened : Originaly, Takopi came to earth and met Marina first in 2022. So most of episode 5 is what happened first chronologicaly from takopi's point of view. He then went back to 2016 to kill Shizuka but had his memories erased in the process by the happien mother. Then everything that we see from the start of episode 1 to the first few minutes of episode 5 when Shizuka struck takopi happens. And once the "flashback" ends in the last few minutes of episode 5, we go back to a few hours/days/weeks (truly not sure but definitely after the event of being struck) after takopi was attacked by Shizuka. This is where Takopi meets Azuma at the end of episode 5, so from Azuma point of view, he recently experienced everything from episode 1 to the last time we saw him in episode 4. This will become more apparent in the next episode but I won't spoil anything !

I finished ep 6 already but I don’t think I figure out the chronological order then either lol

Everything said is right, when Shizuka hit him with the rock she didn’t kill Takopi (even tho a lot of people think she killed him) he lost consciousness and regained the memories erased by the mother and after waking up he went back to the place he first met Shizuka and Marina and Azuma went there to give Takopi his camera back The timelines are also explained on the title of each episode (yes they did an Attack on Titan reference lol) episode 1 is "to you in 2016", episode 5 "to you in 2022" and episode 6 "to all of you in 2016", still I think the anime didn’t do as good as the manga to explain people what happened in episode 5, so many people thought Takopi died in this episode lol in the manga you see him waking up after his flashback, looking around for Shizuka and fly back with the flappy wings The funny thing is that no one understands episode 5 at first, maybe because no one thought that Takopi could go back to his planet and use the happy clock to rewind time to whenever he wants, but he said to Azuma in episode 3, the time camera let’s a Happian to go back in time when he took the picture, but the happy clock let’s you go back in time whenever you want Last thing that I want to point out, the opening music is so fitting to this anime (well of course it was made for this anime) the music is so cheerful and up beat (which fits perfectly with the cheerful looks of the anime) but if you read the lyrics, it’s so depressing (which also fits with the story being told)

Huh… did I heard wrong ? This was hilarious 🤣 1:16:22 you said testicle, I’m pretty sure you meant tentacle, but it’s so hilarious 🤣 I’m so immature, I laughed so hard when you said "Takopi slapped mother’s testicle" 😂😂
