So we had an arc for turning Shin into a well-rounded character and develop more the heroine. And we get... Nothing of that. The Heroine still seems dull. Shin didn't develop properly and his story doesn't seem to be something that will be important later, since the impact of the events in the Heroine looks minimum. It couldn't even help her to get some memories back. But then, what to expect. The anime is trying to compress an character route in two episodes. With such bland direction, of course it would be a failure. Really, why am I watching a date sim in badly animated form? Stick around for Touma and Ukyou's arc, they're really the good ones. |

It will be tough and honestly, this series should have been a bit longer so those two routes in particular would be explored. With Ukyou, I just sincerely hope his route in particular is done right, it has the potential for some real impact. |
paganchick said: I can't say that I'm not enjoying the show but I will say that I feel a bit lost. I definitely wish I had knowledge of the game and the routes now as I'm sure that would provide a great deal of help in understanding things better. Also where is Orion now? I played the game and I don't know what the anime is trying to pull since there was no supernatural elements in the 4 routes except for: - Orion's existence If you want to get spoiled though there's some really detailed summaries on the internet, just google them and it should appear. It will help understanding some things. Kipcha said: I just sincerely hope his route in particular is done right, it has the potential for some real impact. Was hoping for that too or better yet |

I hope that they will animate the rest of his route(and probably the others routes too) on a OVA or something like this, whit normal or Happy endings. ;-; |
|
| Well, finally. Shin doesnt kill anyone and thats Ok. The thing That I enjoyend the most were the fireworks, and finally the main couple talk about the past. |
| Even though I read some bad reviews of this series, I quite like it. It's a feeling I haven't had with a series for quite a while. Every time I get more and more curious about the story. I really would like to play the game after I've watched the anime. Hopefully the anime will end.. well? I think they might screw up in the end since we will only get 13 episodes for such a complicated anime. |

| Daydream on a road Get hit by a truck GENIUS |
| Some truths revealed... I'm starting to get used to the disjointed story telling. ..my main complaint is how some parts of the episodes continue to drag on a bit. |
  |
| That heroine... I just want to make a permanent dent in her face with a sledgehammer. That's just pretty much how I feel about the series in general. But now that I'm already four episodes in I might as well finish it. Plus, those eyes! It's sad to see such artistic talent wasted on something like this... |
 |
| I wish the heroine was a lot more assertive. And that she would stop running away from him. And also answer when someone asks her direct question -_- |
 |
| Voicing Heroine must be the easiest job in the world; she has a repertoire of about 5 words. Also, this: cladinpink said: It's sad to see such artistic talent wasted on something like this... At only 12 episodes, show better start to make SOME sense soon. |
  |
| Orion still not back, but some interesting things are happening, might she be seeing visions instead of recalling memories? And what was with that blank diary? A new character in the ending well this gets quite good... |
 |
| Shin stop being so . . . Forceful. That girl, reminds me of myself just alittle bit. I saw this coming. Ikki. What the hell. Sexual request? What do you want me to do? Nope. Nope. NOPE. I don't like the change with the manager. And I have no idea what's going on anymore. What's this? Inception? |
| Well i actually enjoyed this one alot I dont know how much of Ikki i like so far but we shall see I was liking Shin from the first 2 eps anyway so yeah. |
 |
| Why does is anime remind me of Higurashi's story. I mean parallel worlds where the main hero (Heroine here) dies or gets injred by an accident and then August 1 again and again. This time it's w/ Boyfriends though and not w/ sb getting crazy and starting killing ppl around :P |
| A Story will always come to it's end. The thing is, will you move on after it's over? |
Mai_san said: I hope this whole time travelling - alternate reality thing has a deeper meaning and a good explanation and that it's not just some kind of catalyst for her to be able to get all the guys! Man I really hope so too! This is just strange and Orion isn't here either. So what I'm thinking is that the one with Orion in it is the real world and she's just dreaming all of these. I have no idea but it'll be interesting to see her different experiences with the different guys. The last couple episodes are going to be interesting though, there's only what... 4...5 guys she can be with right? So I figure the last two episodes or so are just going to be a mess of her trying to figure it out or at least that's what I'm hoping for instead of it just ending -.- |
| Mainly keeping up with this show as I'm curious what's causing these travels. |
| Hmm slowly I get what happened. It's like in Amagi SS where Heroine is together with the other main characters, at least I think so. If it's the case the Shin route was really nice, also I would love to see how this would go on between Shin and Heroine. |
 |
| I think it would've been much cooler if Shin was the killer... Whatever, the time line looped again and now it's Ikki's route I guess. |
 |
| Wait, whaaaaaa? Y'all are saying thhat's all we get of Shin's arc??? I thought we'd revisit him later D: then again, it IS only 12 eps.... now I have a bad feeling this anime is gonna be left with too many holes :'( they should've extended it like Junjou Romantica :/ esp since there's more alternate pairings in this anime |
| I guess that was it for Shins route? I mean I wished we would see more of him but we are def on Ikkis route now. And If they swap for and back it will be even more confusing than it is rn since they had to let her keep those memories -.- This setting is annoying me so so sooo much ngl. So I guess they are going for the chapter order as displayed in the Novel? This would mean: iirc at least. Def not looking forward the 4th route then and also I think I am gonna hate this set up more and more and more *sigh* |
 |
| So, it turns out the previous episode got a bit mixed up in translation. Shin actually mentions his dad having killed someone, not him, which clears up the confusion for me. Aww, they left out the best part of Shin's story (Shin is my favorite), but maybe they're planning to bring it in somehow, at some point. Even though I've played the visual novel, I'm really digging this anime and all the cool changes they've made to weave together different routes into one. It feels kind of genius because, despite knowing the story, I can't quite predict what's happening in most parts. I see that as a strong point, unlike those who gripe because it's not exactly like the original game. Looking forward to seeing how the story with Ikky goes (though I'll admit, I barely tolerated him in the game...for the most part, at least, lol). |
