----------------------------------------
Half way point of the show now. I really hope they throw out the weird jokes in this series soon. It's getting a bit stale after 5+ episodes.

Regarding the plot, I feel like little has happened yet again. I mean, there's the case of Setsuna's mysterious identity and Rinne a lot more about him than she is letting on. We did get to see a bit of her past though.

I just wonder how his role in the show ties the whole plot together in the end.

This episode and the last episode have definitely been better in progressing the various mysteries, but it would be a distinct lie to say it has been perfect, as there still have been various tonal issues. Also, wasn't it stated earlier on that, like "Setsuna" in the first episode, that Rinne just washed up on the beach out of nowhere 5-ish years ago? So, based on that, she is very likely to be a time traveler too and, as such, Sara's warnings about the consequences of Setsuna falling for someone from the present don't necessarily make any sense at all.

Also, if this "Setsuna" we've been following isn't the one Rinne knew before, then who the hell is he and who was the original Setsuna? I'll be interested to see how the show explains that.

I'm curious to know why Rinne's mom looked happy while watching them from the window then getting a pissed look on her face.

That different Setsuna still looked like the same Setsuna to me but with a ponytail. He clearly has dreams of doing things with Kuon and also has moments with Sara's mom .Wait?! Don't tell me he is the father of his harem? He's obviously not from the future but from a distant past. If so that's some predestination sht.

Soooooo. It said in the story that Rinne was reincarnated and met a new man but killed herself in the despair of remembering her previous love, Setsuna.

Am I the only one that is curious to see that Setsuna was reincarnated and is having these visions of the Rinne he once knew like the entire legend was flipped backward?

Interesting...

Which of the girls is considered the lead girl? I find Karen is the best girl for Setsuna, but I wonder who the lead girl is.

This anime seemed decent at beginning, now it sucks. I seriously don't care about the mystery part anymore.

No idea what is going on, nor do I really care at this point. All i can really see is children acting overly dramatic.

Okay... so there's something that just really bugs me about this... and I don't mean the usual problems or the stuff everyone already knows or anything it's just... Around 6 Minutes into the episode when Setsuna and Rinne are laying in bed... WHY IS THERE SO MUCH GOD DAMN EFFORT PUT INTO THEM HOLDING HANDS. Like my god the amount of detail they put into that hits like driving into a freaking brick wall. The change in quality is so sudden and out of nowhere I CAN LITERALLY FEEL IT AND I DON'T LIKE IT AT ALL. It was like their hands started vibrating right as they are moving their fingers and it just... why... aside from that I guess the episode was decent. BUT IT LOOKS STRAIGHT UP INHUMAN WHAT THE HECK And I must also say I like the heart glasses.

Oooh...somebody gif those hands locking...

You know, I like how Rinne always walks with an umbrella. She doesn't have the syndrome, but it's a good trait for her since she's known about the condition for so long...

Uh-oh. Kuon looks angry...

Lennon and Yoko? Am I missing something here?

Huh...now that I think of it...what would happen if a couple from two different timelines had a child?

These legends are a bunch of cucks...

Well at least this anime isn't afraid to talk about sex...

So there's another Setsuna, and the current Setsuna isn't the real Setsuna...Huh...I wonder where all of this is going to lead to...

This is REALLY bad, but I can't stop watching it. I guess I need to have my head examined.

It seems like every person on the island is expecting Setsuna and Rinne to do the deed except Setsuna and Rinne themselves.
