Perspective was what the sixth episode of Summertime Rendering was all about.
In this specific “run” of Shinpei’s, we get to see a much broader picture of the things going on around the island.
The lady in black who was previously revealed to be Nagumo Ryuunosuke, Shin’s favorite author is also somebody who hailed from Hitogashima and has come back for some mysterious purpose relating to the Shadows.
The network of Shadows is far wider than what we had previously anticipated and is only growing larger. Shinpei has a lot to take care of, especially now that he knows that he does not have a lot of time on his hands.
Episode 7 Speculations
Seeing the bigger picture doesn’t always mean that you get more answers. As the sixth episode kept unfolding, the already impossible list of questions kept growing along with it.
We do know that Nagumo or as the residents of Hitogashima know her, Minakata Hizuru is on Shinpei’s team (or he’s on her team) but we have no clue what her overall agenda is. Neither are we aware of who or what she works for.

She obviously hates the Shadows with a passion but there seems to be a story that we aren’t quite aware of.
The next episode will probably get to know more about Hizuru and her reasons for returning back to the island. Ushio’s Shadow who seems to have gained consciousness might also play a major role since her being there was merely given a slight nod but no screen time.
Every single time we had a slow episode, the next episode has come to break the very meaning of sanity that the previous one establishes so we can only look forward to what madness comes up next time.

Episode 6 Recap
The episode begins with Nagumo Ryuunosuke getting off the ferry that carried her and Shin to Hitogashima. Right there she discovers that one of the first people from the island she makes contact with upon arrival is a Shadow.

She realizes that the network of Shadows is far wider than she was expecting and her objective, whatever it may be will be extremely difficult to achieve there.
She witnesses Shin getting toppled over by Mio on the bike and realizes that it is the same Shinpei that she is supposed to be looking for but decides to wait before making contact.
Nagumo is unaware of what happened prior to her coming there as she stumbles into Ushio’s funeral unaware of exactly what was going on. There, she gets recognized by the residents and we come to know that Nagumo Ryuunosuke was a resident of Hitogashima and her real name is Minakata Hizuru.
Hizuru was a regular at Alan’s restaurant before Alan took in Shinpei and had known Ushio and Mio since they were kids.
Upon confirming that the Shinpei Alan talked about was the same one she met on the ferry she decides to leave but Alan catches her just in time to talk about the controversial rumors around Ushio’s death.

Alan points out that what happened with Ushio was uncannily similar to what happened fourteen years ago with one of Hizuru’s friends, Ryuunosuke. That memory triggers her to go over to Ushio’s casket and check the strange marks on the body for herself.
Upon confirming something, she walks away but, this time, she is stopped by one of her friends, Asako, Shiori’s mother, the girl Ushio supposedly died while saving. Asako is seemingly overcome with emotion but Hizuru remains nonchalant since she knows that the person in front of her is a Shadow.
In the next scene, we are greeted by Hizuru hanging upside down, talking to the old Hunter guy who is not only aware of the Shadow situation but is actively working with her.
After a brief rundown and a short burst of emotion by Hizuru, they go their separate ways but not before she gives him a smartphone and asks him for a very specific favor.
We then follow Shinpei who makes sure to go through the same interactions as his previous runs to make sure he changes nothing. After the hearse leaves, he is greeted by Shiori and her parents who ask him why had he warned their daughter about Shadows.
There he discovers that all three in the family had already been turned. Hiding his anxiety, he answers the question ignorantly.
With his recent discovery, he begins to hypothesize about when might Mio’s shadow had formed and uses the most degenerate method available to him to confirm that.
At the crematorium, he goes around asking his suspect certain questions, and upon reaching Alan, he receives a paper with a cipher given by Hizuru. While Shin solves it and calls the number, Alan goes to the bathroom to attend to nature’s call.

The hunter, Nezu picks up the call and confirms whether Shin is a Shadow or not. On the other hand, a Shadow Alan tries to sneakily replace Alan but is easily taken down by Hizuru with her wits and a sledgehammer.
Nezu escorts him to Hizuru and Shinpei does exactly as he had been instructed to do. He introduces himself as a fan. She deduces that he must be a time traveler and the episode ends with that, again, leaving us with more questions than answers.
