SYNOPSIS. MARCH 2015. makoto's dropped from his relatively normal slice-of-life sports anime into a game of vivid, a powerpoint presentation, and a theme park catering to nightmare fuel and titillating libidos, respectively speaking. it goes about as well as you'd expect. he barely makes it through the day running solely on gas fumes and human fear, although he does meet a few sympathetic (and unsympathetic) strangers who help alleviate the bone-wracking consternation that typically comes with being informed your entire planet was apparently obliterated by extraterrestrial invaders. at some point he runs into haru, who informs him about meeting up with nitori, and they find kisumi and rin on the network with the same level of bewilderment. if nothing else, at least they weren't all annihilated by intergalactic aliens ... gotta' think about the silver lining ... so far, makoto holds his own personal doubts in regards to verifying whether or not this isn't just a bizarre dream spurred on by some late-night caffeine overdose.
◦ NOTES: what are the five stages of grief to a guy with a shrieking intolerance for things that go bump in the night???
