| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Oo, this episode got interesting with the storytelling about Kei's past. It shows the viewer when Kei saw an ability being used in Sakurada. No wonder he got interested in investigating cases that involves supernatural abilities. I think it's interesting to also note that Kei developed his own abilities around that time. Good way for the show to showcase Kei in his story. I think this episode gave more insight on Kei's motivation to further his ambitions in the present timeline. Not that I'm surprised but his personality seems to be the same back then as now. |

| Back to where he last talked to "Witch". Trying the old man's and the two girls' powers, to see if that girl would be revived? Main guy when he just arrived and met a man. He's then being curious and investigating about the power, including the memory change. Other members of association found him, too. He was restricted to get out and everyone outside would forget about him. Knowing about the future? She already left a message to main guy's friend for two years later. To get her out from the photo? That reminds reset girl for that little girl she helped when she was junior high. She's "alive" now, which she expected herself. Reset girl and cat girl next. |

| So one mystery solved but it created a lot of questions the main one being how to continue. Looks like things might be a little hectic from now on. |
| This anime is a puzzling complexity! Excellent ! |
| I'm quite curious of what Sumire meant with "which one will you choose" at the end of the episode... this anime is getting better and better! |

| This was highly, highly intriguing and got me glued to the screen. Best episode so far. How they brought back Sumire was insane, again combination of abilities here are dope. She knew beforehand of course. Why did she have to die? That's the million dollar question now, eh? |
| Got to know more of Kei's past. He was impressed when he saw the abilities in Sakurada. He also discovered his own ability there. Looks like he managed to see Sumire again. Combining abilities was smart. |
 |
| And here I thought Kei won't be needing another Soma-involved story. Oh well. So young Kei already "sense" about the Reset, but yet know about who done that?. And now he wants to do something to bring Soma back to life. And yup, he did it. |

| Soma is back :') The combination of abilities to "revive" her was great. Now, did Soma hear her voice? ... |
| Well, that was very interesting, how everyone put their abilities to use. That "composition" didn't occur to me. And even though Soma is back, there is still the mystery about the reason for her death. We also got to know more about Keis past, more precisely the day he arrived at Sakurada. Back then he was saved by a Reset. |

Its kind of hard to guess since some of her dialogs from ep1&2 are just now starting to make sense but if i want to go for a wild guess, i say its about a choice that Kei has to make in the end of the series and its going to be a big one, something like saving everyone or removing all the abilities in Sakurada or giving ability to everyone. My assumption is that its going to cost soma's life and "Im sure the choice you make will be correct" is for that part. Anyway pretty good episode, i was hoping for the full explanation but who am i kidding, we still got a long way ahead of us. |
| That was an interesting episode. Loved it. So, Sumire was revived. This episode produced lots of questions but the most important being why did she die?? Kei showed some emotions at the beginning with those tears. |
 |
| how can an anime with such a good story and so interesting characters (mostly soma) be so low scored ? (you dont have to answer. i know why) but wtf. this epsiode was amazing |

Jack_Corvus96 said: I'm quite curious of what Sumire meant with "which one will you choose" at the end of the episode... this anime is getting better and better! When she asked Kei "which one did you want to meet?" what she mean't was "Who do you want to meet the Fake (Zen) or the Real (Gizen) me?" after that she said "I'm sure you will make the right choice" meaning she already knew what he was going to say and that he was going to be correct, what ever answer came out of his mouth that's what she was. At least that's my take on it |
 |
| Fantastic episode, very clever use of 4 abilities combined to bring Sumire back to life. Interesting to learn that Kei was experiencing random resets since he arrived at Sakurada. Which is a bit confusing, since he met Haruki at least a year or two after arriving. If I were him I'd wonder who the hell is causing the resets and causing me so much trouble at random intervals and would want to contact her quickly. Also, I don't know If everyone is forbidden from posting anything regarding their abilities on the internet or contacting people in the outside world about them. Mechanically, I'd like to know how this is prevented and how mass immigration isn't a problem. Seems like if word got out about this town giving all residents super powers then there would be tons of tourism. (It's not like Kei had any trouble getting into the town, just took a random train ride). |
 |
| Yesss! Best girl returns! |
 |
| This really surprised me because I always wondered how they would bring Sumire back, and so to see how they did it, I was pleasantly surprised and impressed Part of me feels like Kei is in love with her but I dunno....I wouldn't mind those two together but I love him with Misora too so hopefully this choice that Sumire talked about isn't relating to chosing between them I was spoiled about why she killed herself in week 1 but thankfully I don't remember it at all lol so I'm looking forward to being surprised by it all |

Great episode tho even if i expected more since Sumire came back. Well this is just my theory but, I think it's about the love triangle. The message to herself 2 years later might be "she chose Haruki" and the reason for her suicide might be bcoz she noticed Kei fell for Haruki and chose reading an LN over her inviting him to see the sunset Lol |

| Souma comes back into the picture..or should I say she comes back out of a picture! |
| I shall rule over the realms of anime and manga! Mwahhahahahaha!!! |
| Wait, what? How were they able to bring her back to life? No one has a revive ability. They used the picture? What? |
| Fantastic episode, by far and away the best this show has managed so far. Everything from the previous episodes coming nicely together all as Soma planned, not least in terms of Kei meeting all the ability users to make her revival possible, but also in terms of the connection to the various philosophical points brought up throughout the show. As for her question to Kei at the end, if we assume it's referring to the real or fake Soma, I'm personally hoping it's the real one that they've brought back, although it isn't exactly clear what that will mean either way. Still, well done to this show for pulling off such a good episode; here's hoping for more in the future. |
Mormegil said: Wait, what? How were they able to bring her back to life? No one has a revive ability. They used the picture? What? They used the picture and Murases ability with Youske's and Haruki's to go back to a time where Sasano's ability was never activated. So basically they brought the girl from the picture to reality. Regarding whether or not she's real is still unclear |

(you dont have to answer. i know why) but wtf. this epsiode was amazing it is kinda interesting and has potential to be great later (because of the reset, but so far was a little boring and most interactions are just "lifeless", they don't raise voice, they barely make jokes, they don't do anything other than just normal talk... also seasonal scores, specially the long ones, are always changing, depending on what happened on last episode, so it will probably go up later anyway i'll admit, sumire is kinda cute in this episode lol and ofc all the abilities combined was also nice to see |
favorite "new girls" from summer <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks (rip all the other choices) |

Chimera-Ant Arc sucks A1-Pictures is great Lelouch is alive |
| Good episode, definitely the best one till date. Pretty cool the way they brought back Soma. Really liked the conversation between Kei and Soma, plus that ending where she asks "which one did you want to meet?" was pretty deep. xD |
 |
| "Just according to K E I K A K U", damn well played Soma |
 |
| Ability mixed with ability, combined with another ability, and Soma has now been revived! This is getting more and more interesting now. Looking forward to what happens next. It seems like her Keikaku may well be some huge battle for the Macguffin. She even apologized in advance this episode.... Just hope no one else dies in the end. |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| Brilliant episode. The combination of every abilities was very smart, gotta admit that. So we had a flashback on Kei's past. It was interesting. AND HELL YEAH! I'm beyond happy to see Soma Sumire back to life again <3 I just hope she doesn't pull something like that stunt ever again. |

The whole "who's the robot?" part of the plot is what drives all the "lifeless" interactions. If you watched until now without realizing it, then no wonder why it was "a little boring" for you. - Haruki is like that because she closed her heart to everything in the past and only now is starting to get the hang of human interactions (she was the first candidate to be the robot, but eventually showed her true emotions, and I'm sure she will show more in the future). - Kei was always a strong candidate to be the robot, due to his methodic way of solving things, but that's just a facade built upon his ability to remember everything (which makes it impossible to forget both the good and the bad things). - Sumire always has that fake smile on her face, but I've never really thought of her as a candidate to be the robot until they pointed it out in this episode. They kinda made a game of guessing, with the hints being released each episode, until we forgot about the game itself, to then give the answer in this episode. |
Anime ga daaaai suki!!! Computer Engineering. Japan is awesome!!! |
| This is just a wild guess. First, she planned all of this just to "revive" herself. First question: Which "Soma" that was "revived"? Was it Soma herself or just a swampman? Next, she has the ability to know ALL about the future, which means she knows what'll happen to everyone and everything including her own fate. Now, the second question: Does "Soma" Soma's fate's different with the swampman? If it is, then it means that she wants to "liberate" herself from some sort of inevitable fate by "reviving" herself into the swampman which leads to the third question: What kind of fate she wants to be liberated from? Is it something big? Or just cliched little thing? |

| So they managed to bring Sumire back in the end, nice. Interesting episode this time. |
  |
| Interesting episode and the story is getting pretty interesting. This episode help reinforce the belief that Souma would somehow return. The insight into Kei's past and specifically his reactions on arriving at Sakurada and seeing his first ability user was pretty interesting. As was how he and the bureau actually met. It was nice seeing Kei is determined to bring Souma back to life though. Its also interesting to see that Kei's abilities too were gained upon entering Sakurada and rather not gained as he grew up in the town. It was actually pretty surprising that Kei actually agreed to signing that contract that allowed him to stay in Sakurada while also allowing the bureau to purchase his past and have everyone outside of the town including his parents forget about him. The combo of the past and present scenes in felt were pretty well done and did well to push the story along. In the present in seems that Kei is starting to move forward with his plan but in doing so he has to do so alone. While to be expected as his personality means that he wound't want to risk Haruki its kinda sad as well. The revelation that Souma actually had the power of foretelling though hinted before was an interesting fact. So it is Kei's belief that everything thats happened so far has been foretold by her already. That and the fact that she also invented the rumor of the McGuffin and thus orchestrating all the meetings that Kei and Haruki have had really tells you how powerful her ability must be. To think all of this was created from a rumor that's main purpose was to gather ability users for one purpose which is to revive Souma from the dead. That was one hell of a prop that the rock was lol. Though i wonder whether the answer that is received will be a happy one or a sad one. Still the one thing thats bothering me is that if Souma could have predicted that much with her ability surely she would have also been able to predict her own death as well. Despite the fact that Kei should be happy that he's able to bring Souma back to life its nice to see that he still retains his cautiousness though. Bringing someone back from the dead is unlike anything thats been done before after all. With such a powerful ability Souma sadly will never be able to have a happy and normal life. The photo ability though has to be one of the most amazing abilities on the show though. I was amazed that the plan actually did work but i guess this was all part of Souma's plan. Souma and Kei will have a ton to talk about since its been two years since they talked. Hmm i miss the interactions that Kei and Souma had. Hmm using the voice message that you left two years ago to be delivered now to confirm whether the souma here is real or not is a interesting idea. But man i have to say Souma's plan was a pretty long and well though out one that only she with her ability can pull off. Still this was such a surprising twist though. And things are getting real interesting with the story as well. Hmm well with their chief asset thats used for foretelling the future gone i would say that the bureau is now less powerful. Still it is as the witch says that they will now hate Kei and his friends. Hmm but to think that Kei would be involved in something big that will involve her successor though. Hmm though Kei should be happy that he will be able to meet Souma again i can see why he's wary though. I think Kei's reaction to this news was best summed up with his tearful laugh as he walked back home. Hmm taking advantage of both Haruki and Youka's reset ability to get that petal from the photo eh. Hmm so Kei plans to use the reset ability to bring Souma back to life eh. To think that the first time that Kei experienced the reset ability was before he entered the town itself though. Hmm the first ability user that Kei met at the station had a most interesting and useful ability. So that was the first ability that Kei saw then eh. Well to be honest if this town's existence was revealed to the world then all sorts of countries would try to kidnap the ability users to experiment on them in an effort to recreate their powers for their own goals. But in the case of Sakurada im glad that there is a bit of a safety measure in that once you leave the town all your powers will be gone as well. Hmm so Kei also gained his ability by entering Sakurada eh. Hmm just as expected the bureau sure acted fast in dispatching agents to find Kei as he discovered his ability. Hmm so the woman's code name is Sakuin which essentially means Index eh. Considering her role in documenting ability users i think its quite appropriate. Kei was surprisingly understanding for someone so young at that time though something that surprised even Sakurin i see. Hmm so as a result of his special ability The Bureau ended up signing a contract with Kei that guaranteed his life in Sakurada on the condition that Kei stay in Sakurada eh. Hmm to think that the Bureau had the financial power to purchase someone's past though. Hmm so even before her death there were indications that something was wrong with Souma eh. |
