| I know I’m probably going to get hate for saying this and I don’t want to say anything bad about this series, but I’m just wondering why Japan is so in love with anime featuring only females or males? I mean what’s wrong with having some male character in shows like this, and vice versa? I just don’t get it. |

Ey, the teacher that is implied to fuck the MC's best friend is a guy. ... not really what I meant |

I mean what’s wrong with having some male character in shows like this, and vice versa? I just don’t get it. Because these shows are mostly geared towards the opposite sex audience who wants to watch it as a pure fan service and perceive the characters as their waifu and don't want be NTR-ed by other men. Well, or ship them to each other. This is common to the point that otaku even debated for a long time whether it was okay to write LN about yuri, as the genre's typical first-person storytelling made readers feel involved and thus violate the "ideal female world". A significant portion of the otaku would rather be a bodyless observer of relationships between men or women than be involved as an avatar of the audience. Bloom into you and Beelzebub-sama even had a light satire on that kind of thinking. You also shouldn't forget about the existence of "platonic yuri", where even if girls are not meant to be lovers, involving a man in a plot will still be perceived by a part of the audience as "breaking the strong emotional bonds of friendship between girls". This is called a" man climbing between yuri ". So, as a result, we get a one-gender cast with unnatural, but strict restrictions on the characters of the opposite sex. |

| I am really enjoying this anime so far. The art style, and animation really stands out. I wonder if this will turn out like Madoka in the end. |
 |
| It breaks my heart so much it really does seem like Koito was sexually abused on top of everything else, because of that creepy frame where the teacher walks behind her, and of course because the whole episode is about the teacher abuse. Also girls stripping her to bully is a form of sexual abuse too... feels so heavy on my soul damn. I think Ai said that she doesn't hate that teacher because she hates and blames herself, and Neiru and the chilling dudes voiced that too. It's not weird because when abuse happens you think you hate and blame an abuser but in reality you fiercely hate yourself for allowing the abuse to happen, and healing comes with realization that it wasn't your fault. |

I've seen it before... lol In fact it is totally Madoka Magica with cute girls... who are not "Magical". Let me guess, we have the MC girl. We have the emotionless girl. Now they will introduce the hot temper edgy talkative girl?  |

| Basically everything that this anime did was very good, biggest surprise of the season. However, I still can't say how good it is, because it's an anime with a lot of figurative messages, and a partially abstract narrative. |
 |
on 
| That's a sweet fricken pen that Ai wields. What a great episode! I think that the character and plot development is great, and I'm starting to kind of figure out what's going on. |
 |
this part killed me. I don't know why I found it so funny |
|
| Ai after previous episode tried to change herself to making as many friends as possible. Starting With Neiru, a Mysterious Girls that want to rescue her sister or that what I know from this episode. But, hey in the end Ai and Neiru be a friend. Ai was really impressive this episode. On the other hand, We meet another person on cracked egg called Minami. For me is almost like Ai on previous episode, with her problem revolve around her Abusive Relationship experience with her gymnastic teacher, Minami affected by her in beginning but can overcome it in the end. I really proud of Ai because her spirit and effort to protect Minami. The episode is almost following based around same scene as Kurumi from previous episode, Not that a bad thing to do just kinda expecting some Great Storytelling and Characterization from this anime. Hope future episode not making too much Repetitive Scene around it and can make some new scene sequence. Btw, The OP was Amazing for me because Rare that I see anime that Calm and Fascinating to watch. The ED that Energetic is Great but not as Much as The OP. I wonder is the teacher at School is harassing Koito and after that having bullied because misunderstand the teacher have with Koito. If that happens, no wonder Koito think and do Suicide in the end. But, I honestly still Confuse with Story. Like I don't know if all people that on Cracked was real or not, what is Acca and Ura Acca interests in all of this, etc. Hope later can give more hint of what is situation they dealt with. |

Another high-quality episode. We're starting to get the bits of what happened to Ai's friend. Still don't really know the point of the egg and other things, hopefuly we find out soon. |
| I wonder if these traumas the girls are facing represent something between Ai and Kaito and what they went through?. in the dream "Minami" is abused by her teacher (a special kind of attention) sounds kind of similar to what the girls were saying about Kaito. And from Ai's reaction when the teacher visited her it seems he had something to do with what happened to Kaito. "do you hate me that much". still not sure if Neiru is real or if she's also part of a dream. |
| yeah, first episode was way better, although the Madoka Magica references are still intense. |

| The character designs are so cute.. I can tell I'm gonna love this anime |
This is just my second episode but I think teacher was just not paying attention to bullying stuff and did "nothing" to prevent this from happening. |

| Nice episode. That gym coach was so corrupted damn. I forgot her name but I am loving the dark skin girl. Ending smile was pretty. |
| Tough love </3 I know that, I understand that feeling so much. Minami!!!!!!!!! T______T don't tell me that they're all dead!!? Kurumi and Minami, they took suicide?! I can't, my heart </3 but I hope when Ai defeated those evil she can bring back their life. How many eggs before they can bring back the life of Koito and Neiru's sister :( |

| This episode is generally inferior to the first, but the setting and direction are clearer. The story in this episode gives me a feeling like only setting a theme to make an episode. Some twists and turns are slightly stiff. The transition between the different scenes is missing, which is very abrupt. It always feels like many wonderful pieces are forced together. In addition, this episode said too much. Koito's past events, Minami's personal experience, and Neiru's past, are told a little. This is less of a problem. The problem is that the three people's experiences do not look like a type at all, stuffing them into one episode looks very conflicting. However, there are still many good points, including the interaction between Ai and Neiru, as well as the plot of memories about Koito. The animation production level is still very high, and the slow-paced OP sounds very good too! Overall the production quality is OK, but not as good as EP 1, but we can still watch the next episode. There's a guess here. The injuries sustained in the dream world will come back to reality, so if you die in the dream world, you will also die in reality, then there will be a new egg, and then a new girl will go to the dream world. The girl in the egg in EP 1 was so familiar with the dream world, maybe she used to be an egg breaker. |
 |
| The OP was...something else... it felt good... relaxing!! Loved it!! I really doubt that saving others can bring back Koito but well...whatever... The animation is really good and the plot just keeps on getting interesting!! Totally loving this series!! |
 |
| Another quite bizarre, but charming nevertheless episode of this quite fresh anime. Coach's "nightmare form" (if it can be called like that) looked interesting. The design was quite original. I also liked how the fighting scene was animated, I mean it was smoth and dynamic. |
| Wow. It was very good |
| Preferred the first episode, although this was still pretty good. The OP & ED are both to my liking~ I know I said this before but I'll say it again: I like how they put some thought into the character designs instead of just making all the characters look like your typical highschool anime girl. |
 |
| Great episode. There are a couple of things I still don't fully understand but it's enjoyable. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| I don't think I appreciate how Ai is suddenly the most socialable being in the entire universe. Pick a lane Ai. It really seems like Ai just saw Neiru, got turned on, and suddenly decided life was worth living. I'm not a fan of this direction, but let's see what happens. Also, I don't know what I was expecting, but that was a really underwhelming opening. Man, this anime is way more ridiculous than I thought it was going to be. I was expecting something a lot more subtle, down to earth... instead we got this crazy demon lady shooting people with tit goo. |
 "...Is your mother worried? Would you like us to assign someone to worry your mother?" |
| Wow that OP was something... God damn they really show us how bad school in Japan huh... Jesus Christ... Lmao Coach Ugly Monster with 4 Tits... What is happening... I don't really understand what's going on but I'm curious for more... |
 |
| I absolutely love the premise of this story of dealing with people's different traumas as 'Wonder Killers' and how they relate to Ai's, but this episode seems to be taking the show in a more cutesy/light mood despite the dark premise which made this episode feel pretty disjointed in what it was trying to achieve. This show has really good potential if it can match the atmosphere with it's premise so I hope to see it improve beyond what was a mid episode. |
 |
| There's a difference between being a strict coach and a shitty person using 'tough love', what makes this even more sad was Minami blaming herself. Slight suggestions there on Koito possibly having had an illicit relation with the teacher. In my eyes Koito seemed to be quite tough with how she shrug the bullying off compared to Ai so I'm curious to what the turning point was before committing suicide. |
 |
| So we're something like mahou shoujo?.. Reminds of Madoka in a way.. Of course shows are different, but still.. I like that we also faced this fear psychologically.. Well, that maybe Minami wanted to be just loved in the end.. As well as internalized all the blaming - thought that indeed the problem is in herself, that she doesn't try enough.. As well as teacher abused her power position.. Power harassment is good words that were used for this situation.. I hope we'll touch problems later like that as well.. Not only fight, but also look at situation in particular.. But will see.. Also I have some feeling that some shit can happen, like any character can die at any time, I imagine.. |
| Pretty boring episode for the most part. The coach transforming is disgusting but I like how we have more information about Koito. |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 |
| This episode 2 is so dumb I don't even know what to say. |
| So I assume they're gonna be showing us just fractions of what happened to Koito each episode and it will all piece together in the end? Also one thing I noticed that bugged me is how Minami didn't seem to know what was going on at all, yet in the first episode Kurumi knew exactly what was going on. How did Kurumi know but Minami didn't? I'd assume that each girl who emerges from the eggs would have the same amount of knowledge on the situation, but I guess not. Also, not really a fan of the opening. It feels more like an ending song, same with the actual ending song. The ending song feels more like it should be an opening, but not an opening for this anime cause I really don't think it suits this anime based on the first two episodes. |
