| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Interesting first episode with a unique plotline. The animation and the music is also great. I almost teared up near the end too. I wonder if all the people they possess in the future will get murdered or only the people that has their future changed? Poor woman and her parents :(( Mod Edit: Modified title for clarity and/or easier searching. |

| confusing as hell, but I liked it? Hopefully future episodes will explain the logic of how these guys are using sort of time travel to inhabit a person's body to obtain some useful information that a client hires them to get. Such a mouthful. RIP random secretary girl. Guess the white-haired guy was right to not mess with the future. But at the same time, it did seem a bit extreme that slightly altering her future had to result in her getting flippin' murdered and dumped in a river. Sure, getting into a random stranger's car is a really bad idea, but damn. It seems like whenever the "Butterfly Effect" is used in stories with time travelling, a negative result of meddling with the flow of time, results in someone getting killed or something extreme like that. It always has to be such a cruel form of "punishment" But, in this case, it wasn't really the girl's fault, which really sucked for her. She was just trying to live her life, and lost her life due to the black-haired mc's meddling. And it seems like the blacked haired mc will remain oblivious to his mistakes, which means he could do it again and cause someone else to suffer...I have a feeling this might happen again. Unless the white-haired mc confronts him about it. I also haven't seen the second ep yet to find out of it also ends in tragedy X-[ When I first saw some promo stuff for this, I thought it was gonna be a danmei. These guys are def shippable, but idk if it'll actually go in the direction. Guessing it won't. I mean the blacked-haired mc wanted to grope "his" tits when he went into the body of the secretary. And of course with Chinese censorship, there can only be light homoerotic subtext. While the visuals/animation was great, once critique I have is the voice acting. I had this issues with Heaven's Official Blessing too. Which is that the male VAs all kind of sound the same. If you were to tell me the black-haired and white-haired mcs had the same voice actor, I'd believe it. It's like these actors don't try to put any kind of inflection or strong personality with their voice work, especially compared to Japanese Seiyuus. It kind of bothers me |

igoramoss said: So.... I really liked it? Really good animation and soundtrack (including that amazing OP as well), and a very interesting concept, that, from what I can see in these 2 episodes are going to be very well developed. Also, are they hinted at LGBT relationships (with the two MC and the two women from ep 2), or is just me? Cause that was really sweet :3 This is probably one of those shows that more people should be talking about... i don't think this is going to be outright lgbt, since you know. china. but it is heavily gaycoded by the creators for lgbt people to catch on ("handsome face", how close they are physically(touchy), the two women from ep 2 and the noodle scene (thats obviously a romantic trope plus with one of them hinting at wanting to marry her) mirroring the one noodle bowl from end of ep 2) |
| obscure anime for u idiots to watch right NOW 1.Odd Taxi WATCH THIS!!!!! 2.LINK CLICK super underrated!! (chinese, foto-time travelling, emotional stories dope music) 3.Mashiro no Oto if u like traditional jap banger music please support Cherry&virgin if u can!! |
| I liked it, almost cried and wow I can't believe she died. |
| "he has it big as a cactus but he won't let go of my head and I puke on his cock bitch" - Boy by Fishball |
| Wow, what an episode! That hooked me completely. Great art style, expressive animation, chilling plot--this one will definitely be worth watching. If I had one criticism, it would be that the subs are actually so bad. Being a native Chinese speaker, I could understand what they were saying, but it definitely wouldn't have been as emotional if i only relied on subs. There are a quite a few parts that have terrible translations, but i guess there's no helping it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |
| Why was I sleeping on it...It's so good. That OP is so amazing, really loved those hand dance. The ED is so amazing too. Since they were going on with this “you should get a boyfriend” thing in the beginning, so I thought that the guy she bumped into would be like a fated meeting or something...but instead he just murdered her and dumped her into the river....I regret what I thought. The black haired guy wanted to make the girl happy but it just happened to backfire. If he gets to know about what happened to the girl then he's going to regret all his life. Actually he should know then in future cases he's going to refrain from making unnecessary changes. He should've listened to Lu Guang... |
| Tears were nearly coming out of my eyes seeing she and her parent’s relationship and then SHE DIED I WAS SO SHOCKED UNEXPECTED PLOT TWIST |
 |
| my first time watching a donghua and im pretty sure i picked a good one. not a shit one, and something ill definitely enjoy at least. sick op. the part where black hair guy was dancing with his hands matching the song was really nice, ed was great too. the animation is pretty, i love the art style sm. but thats expected out of a donghua huh? music was great too, i loved the music that they used for when she came home from work. the story is also interesting, and this episode was good. the emotional parts definitely hit, especially the scene where he was abt to go to sleep. for plot, i was a bit confused at the start but eventually understood it(i think..) can anyone explain what their job is tho? they're not supposed to change the past or future, so what are they time traveling for? |
| What a wonderful episode , Glad I didn't slept on this one , definitely looking forward for the second episode . |

| wow. just... wow. |
| I really hope they'll bring Emma back! I know, narratively wouldn't be good, removing the consequences of their actions and being "unfair" with all others that where hurt while they did their work, but still... HER DEATH ALSO WASN'T FAIR! Hope that they'll at least caught her murderer. |

The_Ruise said: He can't , he can only swift places with the person whoever take the photo (camera man) and the photo which they got at the beginning was taken by that girl so he swift body with her just after she took the photo ,I don't think I can suspend my disbelief for this one. As always, I really dislike time travel. I don't know about just how white-haired guy's superpowers work either. He seems to know what will happen past, present and future so is there even a need to send black-haired guy into other people's bodies? And why send him into the secretary's body so she can peep at the computer screen after being bitch slapped instead of going directly into the CEO's body? So to swift body with the CEO they need a picture taken by him one top of that the time which also need to be specific to complete there tasks , (Sorry my english is not good) |

The_Ruise said: You are welcome by the way if you are confused why the girl got killed at the end , it's because the black hair dude change the past he texted her parents all night and told everything to her parents how she is being treated in office and all those stuff ,( now why did she got killed because of that is still unknown may be her phone got hacked ) and he shouldn't have done that , both of them have to complete there tasks without affecting the time line ,Zean_9435 said: He can't , he can only swift places with the person whoever take the photo (camera man) and the photo which they got at the beginning was taken by that girl so he swift body with her just after she took the photo , So to swift body with the CEO they need a picture taken by him one top of that the time which also need to be specific to complete there tasks , (Sorry my english is not good) Well at least that explains the dynamics of how the switch works. Thanks! This anime is divided into small Arcs and The story of this episode is not yet over I guess the main antagonist of this series is the serial killer which we say at the end of the episode |

White hair can look a photo and see what happened in the next 12 hours after the photo was taken by the person who took the photo, but he can only see from the outside. Black hair can become the person who took the photo for those same 12 hours after the photo was taken, he feels what that person feels. They combine their power to do their work.

The only thing Black hair did was reply "I miss you.". Because they were already very concerned about hair this made the mom rush to her apartment. Black hair knew that he shouldn't do that, that's why he waited until White hair was sleeping to look the phone. |

kuwangpa said: Damn I feel bad for Emma. I'm wondering if that mysterious guy at the station who wanted to "help" her was somehow involved in her death. Hopefully she was able to see both her parents one last time? THAT'S THE KILLER! The question is how much he knew in advance to approach her that way, like he knew not only who she was but also where she was going. How? It's the big mystery, maybe there are other little group with supernatural powers that is not liking what the main characters are doing. |

Watched episode 2 first by accident. But watching this next made this series a lot more interesting. A very subtle way to input the consequences of time altercation. |
