It is a bit of a relief to see that I'm not the only person who was unsure about the scene with the doctors. I was starting to worry that the accumulated brain cell losses from my youth were becoming a factor...

Given the social issues that the writers used as a core conflict element in this series, I can't help but think that the looming extinction of the ero-monsters in the anime is linked to the fact that the birthrate in real-world Japan has dropped below the population replacement level.
