I like the visual too, like most people here. First half was fun to watch, slice of life, with some comedy bits, cute character design and great background art, decent animation, soundtracks, voice work, and some glimpse of their fantasy(?) world. Headphone girl is terrible for not stopping the bus driver for the heavy bagged girl, but in a good comedic way, that's how it looked to me.

But, I was afraid that the drama would ruin the series, and I guessed it right. Second half is unbearable. Ugh I swear the writers can't write a decent drama without making it overbearing.

Edit: I wonder if Noel is a human. The other girl (don't remember her name yet lol) didn't notice her when she just woke up. I know it's not unusual, but.. I don't know, maybe it's because of the fantasy setting that I am getting that kind of vibe.

Seems interesting so far.

Something about this is giving me ominous vibes about Noel; I'm pretty sure she and that sky-disc thing are linked in some way, but I also get the feeling that there's something off about Noel. In the flashbacks she looked too "radiant", almost like she was glowing. It didn't fit with Nonoka's appearance in the flashbacks.

I hope she isn't like Menma from Anohana.


I'm thinking she could be a blue haired, loli alien. Then again, that was what I was thinking before seeing the series (just in general, that it would be about alines.) Hopefully they make something interesting out of the disk in the sky; otherwise, eyes will roll.

I'm not a big fan of AnoHana since I found the first few episodes boring, but depending on how they handle it Noel could fill the Menma role well enough.

It's odd that only a few of Nadoka's childhood friends seem to remember her, and she doesn't seem to remember them. I haven't seen a memory loss anime recently but I'm still pretty much over the topic. Anyways, here's to hoping but not expecting much out of that aspect of the show.

This episode was great in my honest opinion. I loved the OP and ED. Now I'm curious of whether or not other people can see Noel.

I was initially planning to pick this up once it was completed, but this episode alone makes me glad I started watching this now.
Matsuoka Yoshitsugu has hardly any range as a voice actor, and is grossly over-cast.

Yeah. I said it.

Yeah, I kind of understand the boredom one gets when watching it, but it opens up some questions that are worth watching for.

One of the first anime to have me on the fence, but I don't want to drop it with no good reason. I liked the feelsy part in the end, though. Awesome way to bring in the viewers that enjoy drama.

So 4/5 since I'm lenient with anime of this kind.

This gave off a Kanon-esque vibe to me. Main character comes back after a long absence and has to deal with the drama of all the other characters they left behind...plus the added drama of having a(I'm assuming) dead mother. I wonder how the magic of "granting wishes" will play a role in it though.


That girl with headphones reminded me of Nanaka from Myself;Yourself. Guy comes back, childhood friend is mad at him for leaving her and her friends behind. Here she questions Nonoka why she bothered coming back, some attitude problem that girl has.

Interesting 1st episode to say the least.

Interesting first episode. Hopefully more Glasslip than NagiAsu. Headphone girl gives off a Minko ( Hanasaku Iroha ) vibe, hopefully she will not be such a bitch. And I wish, people would stop calling characters they dislike autistic.

I'm sure that this isn't masterpiece anime, but I picked it at random. :D

I really like animation.

I can already tell that this would be one of those bittersweet ones. Judging from the premise, it's gonna be all about friendship. Ehh who am I kidding? Most slice of life anime are like that lol

Anyways, hoping to enjoy this series ~

First off some of the main characters are introduced in this episode Noel, Nonoka, and her father OP and ED already in the series as well

Noel got some serious clumsiness making Nonoka clean her room and the living room again and got into a misunderstanding between the two felt bad for Noel

In the end, there are some flashbacks here and there when Nonoka was still in the town from the past which looked fun, and have some old friends from there as well.
