10 Second Anime - Outbreak Company - Episode 5

Outbreak Company - Episode 5


Elbia starts to fit in as a resident artist, but she has a dark secret. The boys learn the joys of dating sims, the girls not so much. Minori gets BL added to the curriculum through the backdoor...


After the first day, Shinichi has stopped Minori from teaching Boys Love topics, but this hasn't stopped Minori from asking about it every day. The topic these days is galges (short for gal games), or dating simulators. Shinichi gives the students a taste of their version of Da Capo, and the boys swoon, but the girls seem a bit bored.

Meanwhile, being exposed to high level otaku topics also leads to otaku rage: very passionate arguments over which characters or stories are best. What's important here is not convincing the other that your opinion is correct, but displaying the depth of your feelings about it. This is the bridging of the cultures in Eldant that was rare before. Why share your passions with another race? Because you want them to share their passions with you. Liberation through otaku-power! Banzai!

Also, dwarves are eternal lolicons. Hurr. After seeing their women, this is understandable. Laugh-out-loud philosophical argument for appreciating young-looking women: "It is a gentleman's duty to protect young ladies from afar." This sentiment informs so many genres of Japanese pop culture, I had to laugh at how a beginning otaku was able to spell this out so explicitly and simply.

Away from the school, Petrarca summons Shinichi to practice her tsundere skills. Well, she's got the hmph-head-turn down right. And Minori, who couldn't get Shinichi to start up her fujoshi lessons since the first day, does an end run by having Garius decree these topics are mandatory for the children. Minori will have her BL displayed, by any means necessary! Garius tells Shinichi that, even though he has an appreciation for BL, he doesn't bat for both teams. Ah, but he didn't say which team he batted for! Stay alert, Last Otaku-kun!

Back at the mansion, Elbia's strange demeanor finally gets an explanation, after she's found licking Shinichi in bed: she was in heat. As a werewolf girl, she has taken to art to control her animal instincts, but when the full moon gets closer, it gets more difficult. Thus, a little licking and humping at night. Minori accurately assesses Shinichi has cleared all the flags for the harem route, and she's jealous he's been designated the main character. Nice. Military training and full-blown otaku; so well-qualified for this mission. And she warns Miusel to up her game, or she's going to lose out on the One True Pair route. Heh.
