Question to anyone who knows japanese: I noticed that they translated "ajin" as "demi-human". When I read the manga I just assumed ajin was a made up nonsense word, but is it actually a real japanese word?

It's also used in other fiction, like Concrete Revolutio (e: I remembered wrong), and well, the one called Ajin.
It's not quite a dictionary word but reading the kanji 亞人 individually gets you a meaning along "post-humans".

I was a bit surprised when there was a preview after the credits, the ending of the episode screamed "last episode".

Can't have an anime without a pool/beach/onsen episode.

What if we built a tiny submarine for Machi's head?

They didn't answer the question what happens to her flame/subspace link when her body goes under water.
How about strapping a camera with a wireless link onto her body, and then have her dive while watching with the head on land? Or maybe even make a dual camera + VR glasses thing.
