Episode 12 felt rushed. Wouldn't surprise me if it was. Also good lord, did they go overboard with Nanamine's expressions or what?
A bit too much if you ask me.
Spoiler for episode 12:
I mean just look at this. Noumi from Accel World's been beaten in the crazy face department.
Quick, someone punch this guy before he goes into hysterics and his face get's any crazier.
Oh wait! His change from crazy face & laughter to tsundere felt jarring because of this (and the pacing).
In the end Nanamine's just a guy who has an interesting idea, but unfortunately has his head so up his ass he couldn't really take advantage of it's pros and got overrun by it's cons. As for the crowd sourced story idea is a fine one if properly handled, but not something I'd personally like to see become too frequent or common. It's best left as a novelty as opposed to something revolutionary. I'm kinda surprised there were virtually not repercussions for both him and Kosugi, or is it simply because the manga got axed?
Nakai on the other hand, doesn't look like he'll have a chance of any redemption. Is he lashing out at Aoki in the preview? Just when you think he couldn't get any more pathetic.
