----------------------------------------
Good God, that Hina girl has a loud mouth. Cute character but she can be a bit overreactive. It seems the first episode sold the character chemistry between Youta and her. Another noticable character introduced is Kyouko, whom I find much more quiet and reserved.

I'm curious how deep this show will go into the God's powers and fantasy elements tbh. Well, first episode is entertaining so far imo.

Hina is really cute, and she's a very funny person, and Hina is always right in guessing,

haha the way Youta took Hina outside of a ramen restaurant, he was like, kidnapping someone

And Youta was heartbroken, because Izanami rejected him.

Off to an amusing start, I love the loli. She's really amusing and adorable to boot. Story seems interesting too, world ending in 30 days? Youta's parents seems to know something about it, wonder what it is. I can make some vague guesses for now.

Lol Youta already confessed and got rejected, that was kinda depressing but hilarious too. I'll proly like the childhood friend too cause I love quite girls.

Bruh that rejection was so blunt. What a great premiere first ep, with Hina Odin really messing with Yota already. I wonder how this will fold out, given that we're in for "the saddest anime" and so far it's a comedy.

And of course Funi still don’t have the episode up.. after an hour... this is just ridiculous at this point.

Ok, Funi got the video up after 2 hours and oh my goodness I’m shook. What an amazing first episode. Hina is absolutely adorable. Love her design. The comedy landed well with me also which is a plus. Feel bad for Yota getting rejected but at least he got it out the way early. There’s so many questions I have and mysteries that I’m anxious to see explored in this one. It’s been a while since we had a Maeda Jun work and I’m hoping this one stays good throughout and sticks a landing.

10/10 first ep.

I'm so down for this!

As expected, it feels pretty heavy handed, but I simply have a soft spot for this kind of stuff. Been a while since an anime evoked this these emotions in me, the last one was probably Iroduku. Already took a liking to the characters as well.

As for the opening scene, smells like bait. So I dunno whether I should expect a happy ending or not. Bittersweet seems most likely and ideal.

That said, a lot could go wrong here and I'm mostly a bit worried about the episode count. Still gonna approach this with an optimistic mind. Can't wait for next week episode and the opening visuals.

So out of all the gods she proclaims to be Odin from Asgard and that the world will end in 30 days? Ragnarok? Also adding the names Narukami and Izanami as well.

Overall it looks like this will be a fun ride.

What a great premiere episode this was! Comedy and interactions are top-notch, I've been waiting a long time for this you know.

Odin, lol. Couldn't help but lol numerous times thanks to the Kami-misunderstandings in particular.

God, that rejection though. xD, they even played the Op in the background to hype it up but it was always going down... Got to feel for the MC. Not once in fact, but twice! Odin really let his hopes up there. At least learn the rules, lol.

Small introduction for the male childhood friend too. Gold interactions between him and Hina, certainly up for more of that.

MC is starting to accept her godly wisdom now, it seems. Interesting. 30 days at the end card there, it's going to be some ride until it comes down to 0. That's for sure! And guess what, I'm ready for whatever's to come! My tears are yours, Maeda-sensei lmao.

Also, I need the bloody ost!

Edit: Re-watched the episode and the start of the episode really struck a chord. That's the epilogue after the "end of the world", innit?

Good start, but I'm worried. Key hasn't been getting enough budget to develop what they want for a loooong time. Angel Beats was meh at the end and Charlotte was a disaster. Rewrite was also pure garbage.

I can foresee the production speeding up the pacing near the end, making you wanna cry, not because of the story itself, but because they don't know (or don't care) how much time they need to develop what they want. I don't even need to be a god to tell that.

Pretty good so far.

Izanami and Narukami eh? I wonder where that's from? *coughs* *Persona 4* *coughs*

Definitely curious about the setting and why the world is ending but the first episode was fun. Character dynamic between Sato and Youta is great. Comedy is on point.
Poor Youta though, Izanami straight up rejected him.

Why are people calling Odin/Sato Hina? Did I miss something? I don't think she ever mentioned her name was Hina anywhere.

She knows everything yet she doesn't know about basketball, doesn't know his name, doesn't know how to write his name, doesn't know why he's going to the library, doesn't know the childhood friend's name, doesn't know if he likes her, and has to ask if another horse race is coming up. She doesn't seem entirely clueless about society though which makes it weird she didn't know about basketball (yet does know baseball). She acts like she both can & can't read minds, yet she does seem to have some sort of clairvoyance, possibly. The main character believes it quite easily after just some weather, traffic and horse race predictions (albeit the horse race predictions are quite impressive).

Loved this episode, i expected this to start well knowing Jun Maeda's first episodes and it delivered. Strong comedy and OST, the characters are lively. Favourite start of the season.

Interesting to me how she doesn't know exactly everything, there were moments in this episode that illustrated it.

Apparently the world will end in 30 days due to ''humanity's foolish choices''.

Youta's mom knows about Odin? Didn't see that coming.

Aw poor MC, already got rejected on the first episode :( I already love Sato and her smug personality.

I have high expectations for this anime, as I heard people saying the creators of Angel Beats, Charlotte, and Clannad are producing this. Can anyone confirm this for me?

It already seems it's going to be one hell of a tear jerker with the whole "30 days till the world ends" aspect. I hope they don't ruin it like they did with Charlotte, but the plot so far seems pretty straight forward and doesn't look like it'll take any unexpected turns. But then again, it's just speculation, you never know what's going to happen.

Hmm thats one hell of an entrance. Her ability to pre empted the questions sure was fun as was her first question regarding the act of putting the ball through the hoop. The prophecy that she revealed though sure was dark. Her tantrums though are hillarious. Still her ability to foresee the future sure was right on the money. Hina though sure struck a critical blow with her knowledge on Kyouko's interests. Overall a pretty enjoyable opening ep with Hina's character being the spotlight with her mannerisms. Its been so long since I seen Ayane Sakura get such a great role. Hopefully Yota will get some good development soon though. That ending theme though sure was excellent.

Clannad, Angel Beats!, Little Busters!, even Charlotte. But this time there will a bit of basketball as well.

Yes, anything Key-related is Jun Maeda; basically the king of tear-jerker anime imo.


I like this pace, very usual for Jun.

Judging from the starting scene, is Sato some kind of director considering her ability...? We'll just have to wait and see, huh?

That confession was really fishy too, if Sato knew that he was going to be rejected—once again, considering her ability—why would she push Narukami to do so?

Can't wait for more.


Only 30 days left, gotta experience as much as possible during his last summer.

Honestly, a great first episode. Comedy was on point, the characters seem to have interesting personalities and visuals were good enough.
And of course there would be baseball, based Key

I know this is gonna be a 12 episodes series, so I hope things won’t get rushed in the second half of the show just like in Charlotte

"Who is she?" Youta asks himself

"She's gods messed up child that has major issues" I say in a loud clear voice

Gonna be a crazy ride in those 30 days isn't it. This is a great part about the anime cause you know every episode will be filled with fun and happiness and that is what I look forward to watching this show. Make the most out of it my fellow characters. This anime could probably be a really good book and damn a confession reject right on the first episode, feels bad to be rejected. I'm probably gonna fall in love with this anime.

Fantastic first episode :)

First episode starts off with "Odin" sitting in a director's chair as she reminisces about memories. I feel like there's foreshadowing here already...


The backgrounds in this show so far look great!! I also like that shot with some random Shiba Inu wagging its tail.

Youta's friend acts and sounds exactly like Hinata from Angel Beats... considering that his voice actor actually voiced Hinata, this is pretty funny. Speaking of funny, there's lots of jokes in this episode and it's all relatively fast-paced like in Angel Beats. Of course, both that show and this episode seem kinda hit and miss with said jokes, but the ones that did work admittedly did give me a laugh. Maybe it's a sign that I might like this show as it goes on.
Youta is already somewhat different from the protagonists in other Key anime in that he already has a crush on someone (that isn't the main girl) and that he seems a bit more impulsive and skeptical. Also he got friendzoned easily... twice. Let's hope that he doesn't end up feeling watered down to the typical Key protagonist like Yuu from Charlotte eventually did.

Interesting that Funimation decided to translate what Odin was essentially saying about wanting to eat something to "The divine choice is... ramen!". I personally would've translated it to "This god wants to eat... ramen!", but I ain't complaining because ramen is indeed a divine choice of food. Miso ramen please. Odin's pretty loud and has the potential to be annoying like some other anime characters cough cough Menma cough, but she's got that kind of smug-ness or something that I liked about Chibiusa. Maybe it's the pink hair.
Also, lol at "Key Noodle", Key's always gotta sneak in some reference to their name, huh?

Of frickin course this show has baseball. It's Jun Maeda, what'd you expect? lmao

It was pretty well established by the end of the episode that Odin clearly can predict the future (except for the baseball scene where I like to think she purposely told him not to hit the ball at all just to troll him XD), so when Odin told Youta to call his mom for permission to let her stay at her home, it was obvious that she was going to agree. But what was interesting about the actual event is that you can hear his mom's reaction... like why would she ask about how old she is or what clothes she's wearing? Then I noticed the tone of her voice. It sounds like the mom actually knows who Youta is talking about... maybe the mom and Odin have met before? Maybe the mom got some kind of sign in the past that she would come to her household in the future and therefore expected her presence? Who knows.

Anyway, this is a somewhat decent start to a new show. Here's to hoping that it goes well.

30 days before the end of the world.
