I don't get why so many people think EP8 is very weak and shallow.

It's not the best episode, but I love how it expands the lore. Featherine, the city of books, the kakeraverse... And the way it mixes the fantasy narrative with the real world reveal of Eva's diary.

I agree that some of the fight scenes are just an excuse to showcase everyone's abilities and give them a last moment to shine. But outside the generic goat battles, every fight has a purpose and means something. Especially the fact that Featherine can modify reality to kill Lambda. It's not a meaningless scene, it shows that the entire meta plot is just one of Featherine's stories. And it's not the only scene that hints at it.

I also find it funny how some people assume that the red truth CAN contradict itself or lie just because they didn't understand something. Some examples are the apparently contradicting reds at the end of EP6 and the scene where Ikuko uses the red to convince everyone that Eva's diary is the real deal. These red statements don't contradict anything, but people miss the point and assume that you can lie in red if you believe it very strongly or some shit like that. Or that Ikuko's red statement is meant only for the readers and doesn't hint at anything else.
