I can't really see a parallel between the scenes other than aesthetics however. Nao-chan doesn't seem to be in Akira's service, and neither does Akira seem to be one of the competitors in a (divine) war.
Plot twist: his colonoscopy will actually be featured in Tsuneyo's prospective event, where Tsuneyo does Tsuneyo things in the foreground while crusty is getting his anal procedures done in the background by Dr. Thomas.

That depend if it's inside Kumon-Mi. I don't remember well all the cities name, and their reach, so... maybe you have something, maybe not. I let others infirm or valid your take.
Niki might just have blown everyone out of the water after Glasswalker, but the Kirin stocks are kinda going up right now. Helps that I skipped Prisoner on purpose. Obviously not as high as Ayane or Niki but the fact that she's gone from bottom of the pack to middle of the pack is wild.
Does that lump on the left wall look like Jabba the Hutt to anyone else or is that just me. I was also not expecting the vore mall to show up this quickly so that's interesting.

IIRC, Kumon-mi is somewhere near Tokyo -- so ~300 miles/500km from Kyoto. And Kyoto is one of the biggest cities in the country--not likely to be inside the claustrophobic confines of this weird town we're stuck in.
Yeah.... You're starting to understand some of why many of us rate Nodoka so low. There will be much, much more. And yeah--Yumi was the victim there, definitely.
P.s.: will read the rest of your reactions later. I just checked the tierlist because of the picture of Yumi you dropped. I immediately recognized the event.
You cut off Sana's question to Maya, that if I remember correctly was about where she was from. And yeah, Maya has no recollection of where she came from. It's been suggested that no Maya ever had that recollection because, again, she was something that should not exist. Akira points out that the original Maya never talked about her parents during "Baby finches".

I don't know if it merits an entire post, but this replay has made me much more accepting of everything Nodoka does (with the exception of the Yumi thing, which was just strictly malevolent for no reason), it painted Io in a harsher light (she was never my favorite in the first place, and it's even less now - not that I hate her either, she just gravitates between pitiful and toxic), and Pareidolia, well, maybe this one merits a post:
But I've been considering that he really is putting himself into a position to take blame for Akira, and that the things Akira does are actually him doing it, and from that perspective Pareidolia really is just the ultimate bro. And he doesn't interfere nearly as much as I remember either. Maybe more on that later.
