Weird looking arm there.

Eh I thought the episode was kinda strange. They are really pushing Mikoto's talent and story though as well as Koharu's. I think Kakeru is lucky to have a friend like her. Pacing felt like it kinda slowed down. And Shiranui's abilities also still seems quite mysterious imo.

KajiKaji's character decided to find the girl and left the plant she cherished to Shimono-san's character, who felt guilty in not being with her.

Broken sphere? That guy wanting to stop the reset because of someone he loves that went missing from reset. He left his son (KajiKaji's character) and pretended to be dead because he doesn't want his son to get involve (and with the cost of his arm), and he felt hope in meeting that girl...

About the unknown / moon. So OnoD's character is more interested in researching about the moon.

So their destination is where the girl has brought.

Very confusing... so it turns out that it was Shimono-san's character's memory that got stolen by kuudere girl, not that tsundere guy, to protect him (no wonder that boy's voice in the memory was Shimono-san). Tsundere guy stole his power before, but stole remaining power now. But the memory about brother be forgotten again...

Wait, next is recap?

The pacing felt so weird in this episode but I'm still happy because of some scenes... I can't be upset, haha.

The first half explained what happened at the end of the previous episode.
While I personally can't help being unable to hate Yuiga Shiro after a certain incident, he still is such a twisted person beyond help... ^^;

I wouldn't call it love yet, but Mikoto starts being interested in Natsuhiko. The future changing is proof of that.

The Akito/Senri scene was a bit roundabout but just so cute at the end. It's one of my favorites in the game (as is the looking at stars one with Natsuhiko/Mikoto)
As usual game some spoilers ahead (Akito route):


Next episode is a recap? Why...
If you have episodes/minutes to spare why did you not use more time to expand relationships earlier? Sigh.

EDIT: Okay it seems to be 9.5 and not 10 I can live with that.

The pacing did become somewhat slow but I thought it seemed a bit rushed around the end with Senri. I personally don't know anything about the original materiel but during that scene I thought it seemed rushed. If it was supposed to be like that then sorry. The episode was alright though, I still like dream episode better though (aside from the Cinderella heartbreak part).

Kakeru's father dislikes the idea of reset and wants to stop it.

I can't believe we will get a recap episode next week!

The pacing seemed to slow down, however the episode is still decent. Next episode is a recap episode. Hopefully it's episode 9.5 instead of 10.

Fuck, Mikoto and Natsuhiko got just one scene. I mean, it was a nice scene, but still just one. I hate whoever is writing this anime.

Mikoto was specially pretty in this episode though.

So shallow a puddle would be considered deeper. What on earth just happen?

The anime completely fails. Why are reverse harems treated like this?

Once again Sakuya's spouts some lame "Mikoto" line (meanwhile she doesn't spare him a thought)

Koharu is still an empty character. Kakeru is a whipped fool. Ron is still mysterious. Apparently Nanami does immoral shit now just because she's asked (she better not have). Syukuri being obnoxious and presumptuous af. And all other characters are just there as eye candy.

I mean the Senri/Syukuri relation was random af. Where were the hints? And what memory did Nanami take from Syukuri that made him pretend (because apparently thats what he was doing) to hate her guts?

So I guess this Episode will be the "Forking" point or something like that? Whether Koharu will use her power for good or evil?
Aww, tsun-pure Mikoto... With her shrieking and then become excitement. >_<

it's following the VN's Koharu/Kakeru route with slight changes and it will get slightly dramatic if they decide to play it out like its VN haha :P

the only problem now is Mikoto and how her part of the story will be portrayed imo :/
the misunderstanding with Itsuki is still left unresolved....

I forgot Nanami and Akito existed for a while then suddenly they moved everything to the ending of his route, what the fuck?
I hope Nanami
because it's a way better ending. Considering the stupid direction choices they're making, I bet it'll be the other option.

Wait, let me get this straight.... so..... Kakeru's dad was the one who started the "stop Resetting everything" plan in this era, but because something happened to Kakeru's mom, he went back on his ideals and wants to have them reset according to his own plans so that he can see his wife again? Yet another thought: If he wants to see his wife again, and wants to make the reset happen, then why the heck is he building an arsenal of bombers and warheads???

And Natsuhiko wants to stop resetting because.... why? They all know from past resets that once they get to a point in the future, war will kill off the world anyway, and it's happened twice or thrice before... so what makes him think that things would be different this time around if they stop resetting?

And if in order to do so all he has to do is to kill off the people with powers, why not just Off Mikoto and be done with it? Mission accomplished. Why all the unnecessary drama and "trying to convince you what you're doing is wrong" stuff? You were already planning to kill them all to achieve your goal in the first place, no?

Can someone please explain what the heck is going on?

Because he wants to mess up the world with war to force a reset.

He seems to be a rebel, not a murderer. He probably would like to accomplish his goals without killing anyone.

So if he wants to force a reset, why would he not bring Koharu back to the ship then? And why would he not prevent Mikoto from being jacked from their ship? Wouldn't it have been preferable for him to escort all the power users to their destination so that the reset would happen on his watch? Makes no sense that he would just take Koharu away in that case now would it? He could have also warned them beforehand about Shady Shades guy as well, and Mikoto wouldn't have been kidnapped.

Kind of confusing ... so Koharu runs off with Kakeru's dad, and uh, he's the one who planned the Resets but now he wants to stop them? Or at least he wants to hurry it along to see his wife again or something??? So like, do people get "reborn"? I mean otherwise how could he have come up with the idea and lived through 3 whole resets ... >_<
The part with the "older brother" confession was so awkward. They don't really look alike at all ... plus I thought Nanami got rid of his memories of his brother??? Or was that his older brother? I'm so confused D: I guess Syukuri didn't originally have a power but he "learned" from Aoin how to take his brother's which can control water ...? Ugh IDK ... *sigh* I guess they're all going to the island with the World to meet up with Mikoto and Koharu though ...

Osts & night skies so beautiful.
So Yuiga's a founder of the Reset, now a traitor of World, creating chaos to accelerate history... says Reset is stupid now but thinks about reviving his wife... so confused what he wants.
Scientist doesn't want reset and needs to defeat Yuiga somehow.
Why Akito take remaining power & reveal his bro secret now? Strange timing it feels.
Why Ron trolling Kakeru? Doesn't he have better things to do?

I don't care about any of the characters in this show. Well maybe "Little Red and Wolf" just to see where that goes, but otherwise meh. It's all unbelievable to me.

But now that the "plot" is picking up, I'm less bored. Then again, it's kind of hard to make time travel boring, so we'll see where it goes.

At this point, I think this show has some really good designs, art and music that's being squandered.

Shukuri is Senri's brother :O And he finally got close to someone and then that bond was gone again.
That was the tip of the episode for me, it was more intereting than the development with Koharu.

Although the green haired was pretty smooth, gazing at the stars & moon with Mikoto.
