| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well that got tense. I think this might be another of those climatic battles especially with Sabaru fighting the main competitor for the fragments again. However, it looks like they did some transitions to capture some of the more lighthearted and sweet moments in the flashbacks as well. Found the balance of the episode to be refreshing especially since we really get to see what Sabaru and Minato's relationship was like. Cute. This also included Minato's past with another kid. |

| The reveal, as expected. They don't have any power left because of the fragments are gone. Only one person can go and main girl is going. Showing more of the young weak boy. He saw another kid, who introduced him to collecting using magic. It was before meeting her. Blue hair girl knits to try to calm her worry. He then saw engine fragments and the real him being unconscious. He became cursed for his own existence and for her. He disappeared because he went to save her, who tried to undo her magician mode to reveal herself. Depression next ep. Two more eps. |

I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Wow, that was quite a bit to take in. So that suggestion in episode 6 that the two Minato's were separate really was just a curveball after all. More interesting than that is the fact that Minato was friends with the club president before Nanako met him and that the evil personality came to exist due to his denial of his present self. Not only that, but Subaru is apparently cursed in a similar way. With two episodes left, I really have no idea what will happen, but I'm sure that it will surprise me, if everything else this series has done has taught me anything. |
| wow, I satisfied with this atmosphere when explaining minato's past or his motive to gather kakera. and I barely know engine fragment is dangerous if you cannot stabilizing them. my guess is subaru will use 12th engine fragment to travel parallel world to save minato. and she became curse herself. nice irony. nice tragedy. mahou shoujo show always depressed show and bad ending afterall. |
 |
| Oh my god. |
| Gainax actually delivered some twist in their style. Lets see how they'll handle the final. |
 |
| Seeing things in a different light was surprisingly really enjoyable. Not often do I get to see a sickly angelic boy getting to smile like that even if he is bounded by the hospital. The revelation and Minato's fate... |
 |
| Okay, i calmed down. So Minato met the same president as Nanako! And Minato was so in pain and about to destroy himself after he saw what happened to him that he turned evil. So his usual self always had the door opened by Subaru again and again. Subaru revealed herself in space and Minato realises it in tears just to get impaled. And he saved Subaru. Jesus, that's heartbreaking. |
| in the begining I didn't like so much this, but now I love it. I hope subaru saves minato at the end c: |
| Whoa, Gainax. That went in completely different direction than I could ever imagine. So Minato's past is why the show is titled "Wish Upon the Pleiades". |
 |
| AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH dammit, Ganiax.. is my only reply. |
| Watch IDOLiSH7. |
| So it appears that the alien club president actually met Minato first before Nanako picked him by the riverside. They had a nice friendship going on too, until Minato found out about his sickly, present self and sought after the engine fragment, thus cursing himself and turning evil. Quite the unfortunate turn of fate. Minato saving Subaru just before being pierced was pretty sad. Hopefully Subaru will manage to rescue him somehow. Decent episode. This is probably the most underrated show of this season.  |
 |
| All about Minato this time |
 |
| This show is good, definitely not as popular as it should be. I shall spread how enjoyable this show is. |
Honoka is my Hero! Click Me! |
| Didn't actually expect to care about the romance in this anime as much as I do Hope Minato comes back with the last episode. The music box at the preview sucker punched the feels from the episode into me. |
    |
| Well that clear things up about Minato |
| minatooooooo ;___; man this episode hit hard. |
 |
| Is it bad that I can relate to Minato for 100%? :( His story hit really close home and really hard. It made me tear up. I really didn't expect this anime to be so good. One of the best anime of this season. But only time will tell whether or not it stays in that position. I loved everything about this episode. It's been a while since I've seen an episode this good. I also really liked that the fact that only Subaru went (and that they let her) wasn't an asspull. It makes sense that she wants to make up for losing the shards and it makes sense that they want to let her. It also makes sense that the shards were powering their drives and that they lost majority of their power after losing the shards. It all comes together really naturally and believably which is very rare when it gets to romance in anime. |
 |
| Entire episode about Minato. And there was pretty much plot and action in it. I like the way it turns on (about relationship Minato x Subaru). And there 2 episode to go. They are going to return Minato somehow, don't they ? Of course do ) And i think the alien will somehow help them, since it's the same alien who was with Minato. HikaruIzumi said: It all comes together really naturally and believably which is very rare when it gets to romance in anime. I'd rather say it's really good that this show even come to romance way, since it wasn't oblivious till 8 episode |

| That episode though... Really loved it :) Can't wait for the next episode and see what happens <3 PS (Mah true intentions of posting this message): Anybody know the title of the tune at the end right before the ending song? I used to know it but I forgot... :'c |
| This anime is so underrated. Every episode gives me so much feels ╥﹏╥ I literally got goosebumps at one moment. It really touches the heart, all the stuff about dreams, possibilities. Everything reminds of those dreams which you don't quite remember after you wake up but you still have some memories of some faces and feelings. |
| Oh god the feels! Not as depressing as yuyuyu though :'c |
 |
| Of feels, really surprised when Minato got impaled by that fragment.... |
"Fortress Maximus has come himself. Okay! Then I shall get Fortress Maximus to fight me, huh huh huh!" |
| Unfortunately, he doesn't have yellow hair. |
| Satisfied on the whole, the narrative brings order in the various events narrated in the past and you will reach the climax of the story. Drawing a little rough in the first minutes of the episode, but over the course of the story back to the usual standard, better that way. Catchy soundtrack and beautiful, I hope the end of the TV series will live up to my expectations. This TV series is not a masterpiece, but it is not so bad, I hope that posterity will revalue. |
 |
| That was a really beautiul episode! :) MINATO KUN! |

| So why is this show g......o.o Minato kun life T-T |
 |
| Minato looked like a girl in his old transformation, glad he is dead. |
 |
| err...Minato-kun will be back right?... ;__; |
| My old Japan blog which I'm never going to finish: https://ramenshojo.wordpress.com/2016/08/07/day-6-nakano-broadway-harmonica-street-zauo-restaurant/ |
| minato is some delicious trappiness |
| Well I didn't expect that to happen. |
| Oh wow that ending! That sure was impressive, quite a sad ending but I do wonder what happens next! |
 |
| Idk if I should classify Minato as a bad guy as he didn't really have evil intentions. He just wanted to be accepted. The backstory was very interesting, the way he cursed himself and pushed the other kid. The way Minato died was very sad, getting impaled by that fragment and realizing that Subaru was there the entire time. Speaking of Subaru, she should have died in space since she reverted to her human form. |
 |
| Dat reveal. Broken horn. Who the heck is that? Dat transformation. Dat reveal. So that's how Pres ended up as a stone. Dat pierce. Dat ending. |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
