After a few days, Konoha is still struggling, saying she used all her talent on The Last Waltz. Mamoru warns her that she is getting older and adapting to this timeline may cause her to lose the memories of her timeline. While she is alone, Konoha unexpectedly receives a call from Toya before she is kidnapped. Elsewhere, Toya learns what happened from the representative of the company hers merged with in order to get the creator of "the original Cuu".

Later, Mamoru uses the lax security of the Akihabara underground to his advantage while Toya stops the robots from surrounding Konoha. Planet Games CEO Glenn Faulkner tells Konoha that she is in the "development room" with the 200 people trapped in the tanks providing cybernetic intelligence all-year without breaks for the company's games, rather than AI. Toya asks Konoha to enter a CI but she refuses. Mamoru comes across a strange game debugging room. Toya argues that she had to accept the merger with Planet Games and Mamoru hears her cries for help. She apologizes for causing the time-space disruption. Mamoru and Konoha flee, with Toya pleading with Faulkner to not pursue them. When she tries to take Konoha's place in the CI, Faulkner turns her down. Elsewhere, Konoha and Mamoru are seemingly surrounded when a UFO appears to their astonishment.

After everyone parts ways, Toya meets with Mamoru and Konoha. Kaori and Meiko descend from a helicopter, followed by Kiyoshi and Masaru. Despite the promise they made, Toya says she has no right to make a game with Konoha due to her actions. Other members of Alcohol Soft arrive as well and they all work on the new game together. Later, Mamoru gives Konoha a letter to hand him in 1999. Sometime after, she opens Comic Party and goes back to 1999, where she finds herself in the Akihabara she is familiar with. When she pledges to stay there and make video games, she sees a message on a PC-98 welcoming her, and meets Mamoru again. Both agree to make games together.

Reception

The anime adaptation was received positively. Christopher Farris reviewed the first three episodes for Anime News Network, arguing it is a series steeped in "niche nostalgia" with references that only some would know, arguing that Konoha is an energetic and effective guide to introduce audiences to this nostalgia, and praising the performance of her voice actress, Aoi Koga. Farris also notes the cultural framework of the adaptation, which is partially a spinoff from the original manga which "entirely took place in the 1990s," and notes the unique approach of the series to its material, and to otaku culture. In her review of the first episode, Cy Catwell of Anime Feminist noted that it tells a story of how Konoha gets a "second chance" to use her passion to more than "her current job" in 2023, called it "really cute", and said there was a potential for the series to become a feminist series which engages with "the feminine experience with eroticism and adult media".

In the three-episode check-in on Anime Feminist, Alex Henderson said the series was becoming "something entertaining and pretty interesting," as a "love letter" to the 1990s, said they are enjoying the characters, and hoped that Mamoru and Konoha did not become "love interests". Steven Blackburn of Screen Rant said that the series offers "a unique twist on the typical isekai genre," with parallels between her predicament in 2023 and where she ends up after opening a game. Hosts of Anime News Network's "This Week in Anime" noted that Konoha proselytizes about the "storied output" of Key and other works, describing Konoha as a "wondrous recreation of a modern nerd".
