Wow, this episode was as solid as a brick wall. Everyone's amazing in their own way.
Well, time machines are really impossible at this level of technology, but this episode showed how "pseudo-time machines" do exist. In this episode, we get to see Yozora traveling into the future through a galge, while Kodaka gets to relive that fateful moment ten years back with the help of Rika's invention.
Honestly, seeing Yozora experiencing that bad end felt really heart-wrenching, but seeing her try to avoid interacting with the boys (and eventually her classmates as well) feels very revolting.
I hope Yozora stops playing with Yukimura's naivete. Right now, that galge taught Yozora a very good lesson on how to live one's life.
Meanwhile, is it me, or is Rika trying to manipulate the "battlefield"? I can't say for now if Rika actually likes Kodaka because of how playful she can get. She reminds me of Minori and Ami from Toradora! — she has Minori's fun and random quirks but she seems to have Ami's perceptiveness. I can assume that Rika is "doing the moves" to Kodaka because she is interested at him, but there's also a chance that she is only doing this for Yozora to be more proactive.
Next episode appears to return to Haganai's comedic side, but with this unanticipated mood shift, I doubt that the story will just be fun and laughs till the end.
