Wonder Egg Priority “Punch Drunk Day” Review
Wonder Egg Priority “Punch Drunk Day” is the sixth episode in the Wonder Egg series. With new things being introduced and a much faster pace than episode 5. This episode was mixed. It is faster paced, which is good. And does introduce some more magical items and new enemies. But I can’t help but feel the episode had action thrown in purely because they didn’t want to information dump again.
Plot
So the girls are going about their day. Saving egg girls. When a new kind of enemy shows up. A “Hater” they’re stronger than Seenoevils and cause alot of problems for Ai. She successfully manages to keep the girl safe for the night though before Acca and Uru-Acca give them a gift of a Pomanders creatures that hatch from eggs when summoned. In the real world they look like normal animals but in the dream world they’re huge and eat Haters for breakfast.
Meanwhile with Ai. Things seem to be going well with her and her mother. Her mother is clearly less worried about her and she is spending more time with her. But her mother kinda ruins it by asking Ai if she’ll talk with Mr.Sawaki. Things get tense and Ai leaves before the conversation can even start.
Meanwhile with the girls, tensions are still rising. But they seem to be weathering the storm well. Noone says anything to cause hurt or bother anyone and they all go about their objectives.
Review
This episode definitely felt like filler even though it wasn’t trying to be. I’ve learned a hell of alot about the girls and the dream world but it kinda doesn’t feel like it. The episode may show itself to be more important than it was down the line but in the end, it felt like a fun episode with no risks that could give a bunch of info for reasons.
That’s not to say I don’t love it. I do. It has definitely moved the story into the next arc as entertainingly as possible and for that, it’s perfect.
