So he died from an accident and not a disease. That makes the game a lot easier then. Just tell her where, when and how he died, tell him to avoid it. Happy ending!
~is what I'm thinking right now but I doubt it's that easy.

Naho as an adult looks stunning haha. I'm a bit shocked to find out that she's with Suwa, but then again, I guess it makes sense since Kakeru isn't around. I guess she'll be "changing" the future by getting with Kakeru (hopefully) C:

THIS SHOW IS SO FUCKING FRUSTRATING TO WATCH, IT MAKES ME FEEL LIKE PULLING ALL MY HAIR OUT! Dang it, and it's only the second episode. Come on Naho, I expect better from you now that you're aware of what's up and made your mind.

I really don't get why the people in Japan always run away when they're shy, it's one annoying cliche. Glad it worked out in the end or else I wouldn't be able to sit still with it.

Liked this episode. I know there'll be drama ahead but I still find this series soothing. Nothing actually happens, we just watch an ordinary day of high school kids (except for the letter part of course) but it's refreshing.



Kakeru's smile is awesome!

Hmmmm..... if she saves Kakeru and stays in love, I wonder if she would still end up with Suwa 10 years later........ ~_~ you can tell Suwa-kun likes Naho-chan, but she's so q with Kakeru ;A; But I also want her to still end up with Suwa-kun because I don't want that outcome with the baby to go to waste or be something that just "happens" because Kakeru wasn't there. I am torn.


Also, I really like megane-kun lol <3 he's subtly funny in his own way, which I find attractive ^-^

I already love this series. Such an interesting concept and it's so cute. My heart ❤️. I really hope they save kakeru but then her baby might never be born and that's kinda sad. Now off to watch more.

Hagita's mom prepares lunch for him every morning...by leaving him 500 yen. lol
Suwa is Messi.
Really held hands for 10 minutes. smh
Using the dads bento for Kakeru. smh
Dat Engrish.
Well, the letter said to make it for him, not give it to him. You got lucky this time.
Why you asking her so many fucking questions? You a cop?
His kaasan committed seppuku?
Now she gives him the bento.
You'll make it for him everyday?
Naho and Suwa got together and had a baby?
Kakeru was in an accident?
Naho will save Kakeru.

Man, this show is so mind-numbingly boring. For a show that revolves around an ensemble cast of a group of friends, these characters sure have absolutely no chemistry between them. They talk to each other like they're strangers, as if they're asking directions to some random person on the street. And no, it's not because the voice acting is "realistic" or anything. It's just way too bland and subdued.

Naho and her indecisiveness has been frustrating to watch since the first episode. I was ready to drop the show at the first episode itself if she didn't change her mind and decided to bat after all.

Dudeeeee....

So all the infos are all in the letters even how and when Kakeru died so theres a possibility that she can save him. Oh boi its interesting af i sense a huge plot twist in the end of this anime.

So far the first page of the letter was the one she didnt follow i wonder if it will have other significance in the future besides its the reason why kakeru didnt got home early maybe to prevent his mothers suicide.

Oof, so if she had just followed the letter, Kakeru might've gone home and his mom might not have killed herself (at least not that day)? Talk about guilt. That scene and the following one mentioning his death at 17 hit me.

Naho better be done half-assing it when it comes to following the letter. She's had more than enough proof by now to know that the letter ain't playin' around.

Hmm, future Naho is coming off as rather selfish right now. She has this beautiful family yet she's obsessing over her regrets over some guy she knew for a little while in high school. She's willing to give up a man who loves her and her baby. That just doesn't sit right.

Naho and Kakeru scenes were cute. They are both very observant of each other :)

The scenes in the present/future brings tears to my eyes seeing that Kakeru is no longer with them, and they are still as close. It’s sad, and relatable. From the letter, it seems like Kakeru would commit suicide as well? With the mention of them knowing that he could have been saved. Is this going to deal with depression? Seems like it would be a heavy one. I hope I’m wrong about the depression/suicide ㅠㅡㅠ

I wish I never saw her have a kid with suwa. I'm not a fan of love triangles, especially in this kind of story.

so because they invited him, his mother was alone and he couldn't save her?

that Naho is also strange.. every normal person would read all the letters on the first day and she reads them sometimes even after events happen... lol

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

Holy shit what a roller coaster of feelings. I was laughing my ass off in starting then a bit anxious for Naho then laughing then sadness and then again happy when we see kakeru smiling after receiving the lunch then shock that it was Sawo's and Naho's baby and then again sadness when we find out when Kakeru is gonna die.

Seriously this was such a great episode, even better than first.

That Hagita's joke in starting was awesome, I was laughing for 30 secs straight.

That "My mom died." came out of the blue, I was just shocked to hear that and even more after hearing how she died. They shouldn't have invited him on that day after all.

On a side note, Sawo and Naho's baby kawai.

This was a 5/5 episode. Excited for next one.

Uh I know Kakeru's smile is so charming!!! Must protect!!!

Anyway while watching that I kept mumbling "please give the lunch box to him right now" but it turned out that there was a good thing Naho was late in giving it, it makes her knows the reason why Kakeru didn't go to school for 2 weeks.. I can honestly understand that Naho was nervous and hesitant about giving him the lunch box, but I was also annoyed to see that because it was obvious that Kakeru really hoped that Naho would actually bring him lunch. That's why I was so happy and couldn't stop smiling when Naho finally gave him the lunch~ and Kakeru smiled. Oh my god.

But... what bothered me was that the letter said that that day Naho should really have insisted on not letting Kakeru go with them, it means that her future self knows what happened to Kakeru at that time... why didn't she explain it in her letter?

The pairing of Naho and Kakeru are adorable from what I've seen so far, and I like how there's this moment of reluctance during lunch where Naho fails to give Kakeru the lunch she made, before she eventually succeeds in the park.

It gives this motion that the letters of Adult Naho won't completely change how High School Naho will act out her life, showing that doing something like this is difficult due to the good chances that your younger self will still make the same mistakes despite being shown how they are mistakes.

It was a little better than the first episode due to the fact that we get to learn more about Kakeru, we are introduced to the fact that Kakerus mom is dead and that he dies. now Naho is gonna try her best to save Kakeru.

It was overall a good episode, story building, getting to know the characters in the future and present, and overall just getting a sense of how important that note truly is and what happens in the future.

I'm not sure if Naho is in love with Kakeru at this point, but somehow by not following her future self directives, she feel somehow responsible for the death of his mother. That's why she's now determined to follow it, make Kakeru as hapoy as possible, and prevent his death from happening.

It still hasn't hooked me too much but this episode is better than the first.
