This Anime is better than I expected, Thank you Key! As I saw Angel Beats and Charlotte wasn't really popular among the fans of the older Key works, but I hope this one will be a great show. 11 ep remains until the rain of tears.

I can't tell if this show is supposed to be taken seriously or not. Every single serious scene got suddenly ruined by humor. Is that supposed to be a parody of those Clannad-like emotional shows ?

...Do you not know who created this anime lol

Damn, what a great start! The comedy scenes were absolutely on point, but you can't lie to me, i can see the feels in the future :/ Stop this while we still have time.

I do wonder why she refused him..


This scene tho! 10/10

P.A. Works, KEY and Jun Maeda. This has been one of my most anticipated shows for the Fall season, and I can say that I was NOT disappointed one bit, AT ALL. In fact, this episode just has promise after promise, I'm VERY stoked!

The "self-proclaiming" omniscient Odin god Hina Sato (voiced by the ever-loving Ayane Sakura) sure is loud and obnoxious towards not-so-MC Youta, and is Jun Maeda levels of humour done recognisably well, as to be expected. That's the happy part, not to mention full-on hilarious banter between Hina and Youta.

It wouldn't be a Jun Maeda anime if there's no baseball at all, totally reminiscent of Angel Beats and Charlotte. But Youta following on Hina's future predictions is just too funny on a loose face.

Press F for Youta in pursuit of his childhood friend Izanami, to be friendzoned and rejected straightaway LOLs, the childhood friend "unrequited love" romance always ends in tragedy. OOF THAT GOTTA HURT HARD MAN.

This ride is just the beginning...continue to amaze me!

Oh wow, for some reason I didn't watch it on its release but I have to say that it's one of my favorite first episodes of this season, I loved it!

Ayaneru voicing another cute waifu? Hell yeah! Odin is so damn cute <3. I love Ayaneru's voice so much, that "love" was excellent lmao. I also love how expressive Odin is, the animation really helps in this aspect.

It's interesting how it's credible that Odin is a goddess with all those predictions but at the same time drops very human information about her like her last name or the train route to get home. Then you have Youta's mom who seems to know her somehow, I wonder why.

Pretty fun and interesting first episode, I love this show already.

This was fun and tropey in the usual ways, but if it wasn't Maedashit I probably wouldn't be excited. I love how the MC starts off playing basketball then transitions to baseball because basketball is the wrong start. It was almost, ALMOST on the cusp of being a meta joke.

Maeda & his baseball again..., well can care less about baseball but the rest was quite hilarious with nice animation.
Sato like Nao Tomori voice x Index loud nun. Odd that Odin's loli here and shota in Sigrdrifa.
Have concern of VA/Key shows, & folks usually complain of pacing issues. But Key+PAWorks combo tends to be better than other studios.
Good premise setup. Think her setting the baseball fail was top trolling or has a specific reason for the world end.

I have mixed feeling about this. There are parts where I really liked but some parts are ok. Production was beautiful as expected from PA Works. The backgrounds and the art direction was brilliant. However, things like how Odin knows about baseball but not about horse racing is kinda weird. Overall 3.5/5

I KNEW stupid people here would bitch about Charlotte (which is a fine series and not rushed at all) even though this board is not about Charlotte. STFU with the Charlotte hate already. IT WAS FINE.


...something about Hina bothers me...it's her face maybe...or the shape of her eyes. She's just not as cute as I want her to be. >_>

....ah no wonder her shouting annoys me lol; it's goddamn Kirino.

Enjoyable series though. Please destroy me by the end, Maeda-sensei. xD

This will be a nice show to watch.

Tbh if i saw Odin i think i would call her crazy.

The one he loves is really beautiful no doubt.

Too bad he got rejected, press F to pay respect.

Looking for more!

Just went back and watched the dub for this episode.

It's... okay. I really like Hina's voice, actually. I think it fits quite well, and her ramblings are a little less ear-screechy than in the original voiceover. Youta's voice is quite a bit deeper, but I don't mind it. Izanami's voice is... weird. I'm not sure I like it. Her tone is more sarcastic(?) rather than indifferent.

The translations seemed to be pretty good. The Natsume Soseki joke probably isn't going to resonate with many western viewers, however.
Some of the audio mixing was off. During many of the banter scenes, the voice clips would kind of overlap each other and become intelligible. I went to the original voiceover and there are proper voice cutoffs and mixing.

I like how all the places shown in this anime are actually exist and could be found easily on google map.
For example they ate in this restaurant, or here is building of the library. The scenery is soothing, a sight for sore eyes but the irritating shouting of the girl all the time.. serioulsy why, what is the point of it?

From my point of view, i think that every story in a show, movie or in this case an anime needs two things that must work together: a nice character design and an atmospheric background. Even though i really don't know yet what the plot is all about, i like these protagonist so far and honestly, i really love and got bewitched by the world those characters live in! I don't know but if the anime makes me feel like i'm in the same world as the characters, it gets really easy and comfy for me to experience the story to the fullest, it feels like i'm breathing the same air as the characters.

I like this girl. She's a little over the top but kind of fun. Wonder if her antiquated style of speaking will persist throughout the entire season. I wouldn't be opposed. I also hope this isn't one of those shows where she's going to have to drag this generic MC boy along the correct path the entire time.

I'd give the episode a 6.5/10

What even was this first episode?? It feels like it lacked a proper introduction and just went straight into stupidity. My opinion is already negative.

Too much comedy and I can't take it seriously even with the drama tag, oh my. Shouldn't our protagonist be worried about the end of the world in 30 days?

Yota living a tough life, getting friendzoned, rejected and also dealing with a lost kid that has an identity crisis claiming that the world ends in a month. Amazing start, animation looks great and comedy is pretty funny so far.

I’ve seen a number of people who like Maeda’s past works but not this one. Being of the view that Maeda can virtually do no wrong I’m ready to put those ratings to the test.

Anyway, Hina what a loud mouth.. but who is she? and what is her actual purpose?

Fond of the dialogue; it has wit and authenticity to its delivery. MC getting rejected by the black-haired girl was pretty funny too, for all its comedic abruptness. Suppose that's a precept against confessing to people you barely interacted with before.
