"So, Aqua is actually a Goddess? How? She's so..." Megumin mutters as she and the others watch Konosuba, finding the Anime rather stupid, if funny in the way it was animated... Crying Aqua could never not be funny after all.
"Dumb?" Saya finishes for her.
"Did you actually meet her, bro?" Lillith asks, finding it difficult to reconcile with this fantastical situation she'd found herself in... Had she gone into a coma and just dreamt this up? Because that's what it felt like...
"Yeah... She's just like she is in the anime too, constantly crying and screaming, or looking smug despite her own failings..."
"Kazuma seems to be from a world similar to yours, Michael." Tiffania asks.
Michael shrugs, "It's a troupe, modern guy gets transported to another world... It isn't strange for a character designed by us to have similarities. If the creator was even responsible for the creation of that world anyway? Which I'm pretty sure is impossible?"
"I'm sticking with the multiverse theory... Otherwise I'd have to reconcile the fact that I was created by a sweaty otaku with a big-boob fetish..."
"Hmph, that'd explain why you and your friends all have giant boobs." Megumin sneers, "Everyone else in your world had 'normal' sizes..."
"Well, as a man of culture, I'm not going to complain about it..." Michael chuckles.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Oh! It's me! Look how cool I am!" Megumin shuffles in her seat as her character introduces herself... Only to then fall down due to her starvation and exhaustion...
"Didn't this happen when we summoned you?" Tiffania asks.
"Er, well... Yes? But you caught me at a bad time..."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Haha! Watch as I annihilate that Giant Frog! Explosion!" she exclaims simultaneously with her Anime character.
*BOOOM!*
"Haha, worth it." the on-screen Megumin mutters as she falls flat on her face, slowly sliding down the hill as another Giant Frog hops towards her...
"Let me guess, they caught you at a bad time?" Saya drawls as Megumin flushes at the embarrassing situation.
"I think... I'd rather not have any magic..." Lillith mutters as they all watch Megumin get eaten and covered in gross frog stomach acids.
"Poor Kazuma, having to put up with such useless people... If he wasn't such a pervert I'd feel bad for him." Saya states.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
"So, that's how they met Darkness..."
"Yep..."
"You know, I think we should give her an Anime to watch... One starting with Goblin and ending in Slayer..." Michael wonders aloud despite no one else knowing what he was referring to. He shakes his head, "I feel kinda bad for her since she'd never find a good relationship... If they were kind she'd be upset about it, if they were cruel she'd be happy but in a terrible situation..."
"M-maybe we could... Fix her mindset?" Tiffania offers, "My Erase spell with some illusions might do the trick?"
"Oh, mind control, Tiff? I never thought you'd have it in you..."
"N-no! But... If it helps her in the long run, why would it be a bad thing?"
"Because you're fundamentally altering a person against their will?"
Michael coughs into his fist, "Actually... If you asked she'd probably accept it, you know, hardcore masochist and all."
"Ah, right..."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The group continue to watch up until the Dullahan Demon General attacks the city due to Megumin's habit of practising Explosion spells on his castle...
"Haha! I knew it! You're as dumb as the rest of that useless group!" Saya laughs.
"No! How was I, she, supposed to know that a Demon General lived there!?..." She angrily shakes her head and turns it off before jabbing a finger at Saya, "Let's watch her now! I wanna see her pee herself when those zombies attack!"
Saya's brows rise at this as she thinks back on what'd happened, she hadn't reacted as confidently as she should have, basically relying on Kohta to save her ass through the whole thing... "Ah, can we not actually?"
Michael grins, "We'll watch Tiffania's after yours... Let's hope you didn't do anything too embarrassing." he says as he loads up Highschool of the Dead.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Huh, they got my whole conversation with Cuckashi..." Saya mutters as she views herself speaking with her former crush on the school staircase.
"Hehe, you have a thing for broody, emo boys?" Megumin taunts.
"Better than your crush on Kazuma, I bet by the end of that series he gets together with all three of you useless girls!" Saya hits back.
"No way would that ever happen!"
"Erm, it says here that Kazuma and Megumin get together in the Novel." Lillith quietly says as she pulls up the series.
Megumin, justifiably buries her face in her hands as Saya laughs over her.
"I think it's cute... You would be good for one another." Tiffania offers, only embarrassing Megumin further.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"That Shido guy killed his student!" Megumin exclaims as they all watch said person kick a teenage boy into a crowd of zombies to save himself.
"Yeah, we already know he's a scumbag, did Michael ever tell you how we killed him?"
"No...?" Lillith buts in, looking a bit green both from the deaths in the Anime and the mention of her brother being involved with all of it.
...
Saya glances at Michael uncomfortably, not really knowing if she should say anything... She'd kind of forgotten that Lillith was here, to be honest.
He lets out a sigh and scratches his face, "I slowly lowered him into a crowd of zombies to be devoured... Trust me, that piece of trash deserved it."
Saya nods, "He did, the people he hurt would live with it for the rest of their lives."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey, that's where you should have appeared!" Saya exclaims as she watches the group travel in the school bus.
Michael shrugs, "I don't exist in the Anime, remember... This is the timeline where I don't appear."
...
"This isn't going to go well, is it?" she mutters.
"Probably."
Hope you bois liked the chap, if I missed anything please let me know. Thanks!

"That guy managed to kick Cuckashi and Rei out of our own bus!?" Saya angrily asks, confused at why they didn't just beat the crap out of him and dump him outside with his brainwashed lackeys.
"Yeah, the plot isn't very smart... Or Takashi and Rei are just idiots... I mean, who just wanders off alone in a zombie apocalypse because they hate someone in the group?"
"No one in this Anime is very smart... Saya included." Megumin remarks, drawing a glare from said pinkette. "The only person I like in this is that nurse who looks like Tiff."
"Shizuka Marikawa. Come to think of it, we didn't get to see her much did we?" Michael mutters, the woman had been concentrating on healing the injured and spending time with her girlfriend.
"Hmmm, Tiff spend enough time with her... You were acting like mother and daughter." the explosion girl adds.
"Well, she reminds me a lot of my mother, and Miss Shizuka is very... Handsy" Tiffania states.
"He, nice." Michael grins, getting a slap from Lillith in response.
"Don't be a pervert..."
"I'm not being a pervert... Just think about it, a Tiffania and Shizuka sandwich-ouch! Okay! Okay! I'll stop!" he laughs as his sister hammers into him with weak punches.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Michael and everyone else stares with wide eyes at the legendary boob shot scene, Cuckashi using Rei's boobs as a stabiliser and firing bullets that go between Saeko's legs and boobs... All with the camera tracking said shots of course.
"Wow..."
...
"Just wow..."
"Nice show you've got here, Saya-san." Megumin mocks with a huge grin. The scene they just watched was so ridiculous, and so close to being pornographic that Michael and Saya were struggling not to categorize this as a Hentai show...
"H-how could Anime watch and enjoy this? How could this happen in reality? I-I can't believe this would have happened, I refuse to believe it!"
"Well, I enjoyed it..." Michael chuckles, "
"Of course you would, harem-protagonist-scum."
"Funny how you're not included in the best scene in the show." he retorts, causing her to glare.
"I-Is this normal for 'modern entertainment'?" Tiffania can't help but ask.
"Er... Let's keep watching shall we?"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
"*Gasp* Mama, Papa..." Saya utters in horror as she sees her parents die at the hands of the zombies, simply because that piece of shit Shido decided to sabotage everything!
"Don't worry Saya, this isn't real, remember? Your parents are fine." Tiffania consoles her with a hug.
...
"Y-you're right... I-it's just horrifying that this would've been my future without Michael..."
Tiff smiles, "Yes, without him all of our lives would've been worse."
"Gee, you're making me blush." Michael jokes despite the hint of red on his cheeks. Lillith grips his hand tightly and leans into him, showing her own appreciation.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"So, I eventually end up with Kohta?" Saya asks as they near the end of the Anime. Their relationship was explicitly stated, but it was heavily hinted at.
"What? Don't think he's good enough for you?" Michael questions.
"No... Well, not his on-screen version. But the version we saw when we visited? I could see myself liking him..." she admits before shaking her head, "I've had enough of viewing this 'not-future'."
Tiffania nods, "Lets watch my world then... I want to see what would've been..."
Michael loads up Familiar of Zero, and the group immediately notice the differences...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"So, this 'Saito' person was the protagonist before Michael took his place?" Megumin questions curiously.
"Yeah, got the runes to show for it and everything." Michael confirms while showing his Gandalfr runes.
"And yet I got the useless chest tattoo." Megumin pouts after seeing Saito easily defeat Guiche.
"Yeah, I actually ended up killing Guiche here with magic... It was stupid but I wasn't really thinking straight..."
"Looks like he deserved it anyway." Saya shrugs dismissively.
"Maybe, but I got imprisoned immediately after and forced to escape... Louise... She didn't have the best time with my absence... She would've been better off with Saito instead of me." Michael sheepishly admits...
Louise and everyone else in that world were probably dead at the hands of the ancient dragon anyway, so regretting it all now was redundant.
"So, you replaced the protagonist and almost immediately threw away the female lead..." Saya chuckles, "Was it because she didn't suit your tastes?"
Michael sighs, "Yeah, I don't think pink hair looks good on anyone..."
"Wait a minute... Is this who you were comparing me to way back then!? We're nothing alike!" Saya exclaims upon connecting the dots.
Everyone just sends a silent look at her at this.
"Well, let's just see..." Michael says, beginning to count his fingers, "Rich, dismissive parents. Pink hair. Tsundere attitude. Inferiority complex despite thinking she's smarter than everyone else... The list goes on and on..."
...
"Heh, see that Saya? Plus that girl's a Void Mage like Tiff, the only thing you beat her in is boob-size!" Megumin can't help but voice.
"Grr, I'M NOT LIKE HER! YOU'RE ALL BEING RIDICULOUS!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
"Princess Henrietta... She killed herself during the time of our departure..." Tiffania sadly states as the scene with the princess plays.
"It was out of our hands... We're not responsible for the fate of everyone even if someone in our place would've done something... God could have stepped in if he wanted, but he didn't, so why should we?" Michael says, though, he wasn't very convincing in his reasoning.
"That just sounds like an excuse to make yourself feel better..." Saya remarks.
Michael shrugs in response, "It probably is, I try not to think about all the ways I've failed... I wasn't really strong enough, physically or mentally back then to do anything meaningful. At that time I was sneaking around a port city struggling to survive..."
"Was it hard, big bro?" Lillith quietly asks.
He nods, "It was, but I made it out okay didn't I?"
