At the end of each episode of _Ro-Kyu-Bu!_ , and sometimes during the episode
content, the girls are seen talking to each other or to the audience in chibi
form. Usually there is 8-bit music in the background, and the characters
appear to be sprites (without animations).

Is this a game they're playing? Or, is it something more meta (like a
representation of them talking by phone)? If it's a game, does it have a name?

What is the chibi-esque gathering at the end of each episode?


In the first episode of _Ro-Kyu-Bu! SS_ , the girls are again shown in their
chibi forms. It is then revealed that they are simply typing into their phones
and computers as their conversation goes on.

Since they're doing this on flip phones, it seems unlikely that they're
playing a game, despite the occasional "Now Loading" screen. The most likely
conclusion is that the chibis are just a representation of each character
chatting with the others, probably shown because it's more appealing than
showing each girl on their personal computers.
