| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So that Mio girl can be quite observative. Takuya also seems to be rather intelligent when it comes to history and recalling the past. I'm still much more curious about that Kana girl though since she gives off a mysterious vibe. Feels like she's hiding something. Oh Ayame, she's dealing with some shady people. It seems Takuya is taking advantage of his ability to deal with them. |
 |
| The episode didn't even finish airing in Japan when you posted this lmao. Nonetheless, nice observations and I'm hoping you're enjoy this! |
i didn't know was gonna be in an anime this season |
   |
| That end was soooo bad, damn... |
| Not a bad episode, I can already see how parallele universe is gonna be an important plot in this serie because of all the symbolism with the tree in the ending and opening. Imo I can already see how much better it would be to just read it instead of watching, I'll still keep watching though. |
| I have mixed feelings about this episode. 1st half was great, but they changed and skipped too much with Ayumi |

| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| They're actually changing quite a bit from the visual novel. So far it's not bad, I'm just really interested to see where they go with this. I'm thoroughly enjoying this adaptation thus far even if it's not staying 100% faithful to the source! |
| I can certainly see why some people who played the Visual Novel said that this was an inspiration for steins; gate. |
  |
Aaaand we already have a Steins;Gate reference. |
| One thing I forgot to mention is that there's quite a few changes from the original VN. People that only like 100% faithful adaptations will hate me for saying this, but if they're doing some anime-original stuff that deviates from the VN, you just gotta trust that it's all part of the master plan of turning this story into a great anime. This was always going to be a tough challenge to make an anime out of, after all. I'm thoroughly enjoying it so far, like I said before! |

Agreed, they're changing it by a fair amount, but it also seems to be a way that fits in anime form. At least, as far as these two episodes make it seem, especially this episode compared to the first one. |
| Signature: I prefer comedies, horror, hentai, and combinations of such. Anime with a lack of fan service is a disservice. |
| This isn't too bad, but something does feel a little off here, though I'm not at all sure what. Probably something to do with the parallel universes I suppose... based on what his father said, Takuya is creating a new one every single time he tries to stop those thugs, right? It would be nice if the show was a little clearer on the exact rules of this, especially when green-hair guy only shows up in the latest instance and not the others (that we see, anyhow). |

Well, he did make a hell of a ruckus, revving the bike and crashing it into the wall lmao. Toyotomi most likely was nearby and heard it. |
| Not a bad episode. That green-hair guy is annoying. |
 |
| The premise and the set up are actually quite intriguing, but imo it still lacks a bit excitement, nonetheless a fairly nice watch so far. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| that mio is the most logical person in this anime...it seems and mom just happen to be in trouble from time to time it seems |
 |
| Yeah, I think I'm going to like this one. We have characters actually talking about things that they are personally knowledgeable about and it doesn't come across as cheap author-insert garbage. A very rare thing, |

| Boring and predictable. The thugs either got hired by the guy at the end or the guy for whom MC mom works |
| I was playing the game in parallel of watching the anime, and it seems that they advanced from the point I was in?? Which means that they butcher all the little details (Like takuya's interaction with Mitsuki, and with his homeroom teacher etc...) . But I'm not complaining. Honestly playing the game and watching the anime will be the best combo to do |
 They all feel the same adjust to the pain..like tears in the rain.. |
nightcrawlercyp said: Boring and predictable. The thugs either got hired by the guy at the end or the guy for whom MC mom works You'll take back 'predictable' at least by the end of the first cour. Reading this visual novel, it was one of the least predictable things I've ever seen. |
| Is this a mix between Re Zero and Steins;Gate i liked it |
 |
| People can probably tell by now that the inspiration thing for Steins;Gate doesn't come out of thin air now. I like that Takuya is actually testing the waters with the device. And considering the personality of him so far, it makes sense to me that he doesn't think of any consequences YET. Mio is quite the determined one. I like how she doesn't let up once she sees something happening that seems suspicious to her as seen with Kanna and shortly after with Toyotomi, even taking charge in the conversation there. N Speaking of, he came in at the very end only to help out Ayumi. He might have heard the noise of the bike and came in there. I laughed when Takuya just resetted everytime he failed xD That's admirable, no mistake but it was hilarious to me :D Can't wait to see more, i'll be rewatching every new episode once the day after to pick up on new shit i can find. |
| I'm guessing that Kana may have seen Takuya did a time loop. |

| Well that was a pretty boring episode.. |
 |
| Better. And it's now obvious they are joining all routes together, wonder how that works though (but I already noticed before - only three gems are missing from his relector - meaning what keypoints would be). Still don't like their music arranges though. It's ridiculous, most of the time there is no music at all... the overall atmosphere really suffers due to it. Also, the mystery kinda suffers when they try to explain some things so obviously.. (like that Toyotomi entrace in the end). And I honestly doubt anime-only viewers actually get what his father tried to explain (plus really bad subtitles at that... seems like some meanings were completely shifted). Basically, the way the Reflector device works is he saves the state on the timeline and then can return back to it, each slot is one save point so his options are limited by the number of gems. Also, what his father was trying to tell him is that the time flows as a river, meaning even if he seemingly goes back in time, he's is still going forward in history. (A He saves the world state) ---> (B He throws a can)---> (C He resets the worldstate back to A) Meaning that although C is seemingly same as A it's actually down the worldline. Chaos theory applies too. This is probably the main fundamental difference from every other time-travelling story - cause he isn't actually going back, he only creates the possibility where everything is as it was before - but the time itself (and he too) moves forward so the cause and effect rule still applies. Also, every item he has goes with him as shown with the can (this is crucial to further story). Anyway, if you want to read about Reflector device in more detail, there is actually whole text he was holding in his hands here: http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/yuno/yuno_files/yuno-adms-paper.pdf Also, kinda funny but sometimes Mio sounds exactly like Shana which breaks the 4th wall. Guess Kugimiya Rie is forgetting that this time she is voicing ojou-sama instead of loli chracter. |
| liked this more than the first wasn't too bad either still early on so nothing crazy has happened yet but shit i feel like Mio's introduction did her a disservice she felt like just another tsu-ojou type but shes pretty smart and logical like when she was questioning Kanna was like damn you're asking all the right questions that most anime characters won't |

| after going deeper into the original 1996 game story, I must say this doesn´t feel particularly boring, Im actually entertained since it´s interesting too see all these characters animated, but as an adaptation this could have been done in a much better way. Its ike Im watching a advertisement for the game and one that doesnt make it justice most of the time. |
| :v |
| Not to say it isn't a valid criticism, but a lot of people pointing out the poorly timed jokes don't seem to have the same problem with FMAB. I wonder why... |

2 out of 26 is less than 8% through the entire show. How is that enough? |
ycleped said: MichaelJackson said: ....................and that´s enough 2 out of 26 is less than 8% through the entire show. How is that enough? Well, it was enough for you to give it a score already. |
| :v |
I didn't give it a score. I gave it a placeholder to combat the crappy rating it has currently that might be driving people away from checking it out. I don't give anything a legitimate score until I've finished it. I've read the visual novel and I gave that a 10/10 so if the rating *was* legitimate, it would be a 10, not a 9. However, I understand that source =/= adaptation in rating. Again, my rating is just a placeholder to combat the other poor ratings the show has received. Maybe I should put a disclaimer on my profile saying that any ratings for currently airing shows or shows I haven't finished yet are always placeholders. |
| I like the way that device works, but that 400 year theory thing is what stood out the most to me....That was interesting af lol |
| Yeah this episode kind of turned me off. The mc is funny I guess, but it feels forced. Plus the main girl is now the Mayors daughter I felt like that should have been addressed somewhat in episode one instead of "surprise". She also likes the MC. The time travel back a few minutes is going to get old possibly. Ill give it another episode or two to see if it can hook me in. |

ycleped said: So I have to watch half the show to be entertained? Also it is obvious that the chick that the MC's BFF is hot after (I think she is named Mio) is after MC's D. Hope it just does not turn into a harem. So far 3 girls seem that will be interested in him. Also is obvious the mountain was created by some malfunction of the device. But it was fun him charging to attack. I thought that he was going to use the moped to grab his mom and get out, but no... he wanted to beat the thugs as a scrawny dumb kid.nightcrawlercyp said: Boring and predictable.

I mean yes when Japan had moments of isolationism it stagnated and when regime changed in some cases they changed this policy and it prospered but correlation does not mean causality. In fact the causality works the other way around. The theory is dumbTokoya said: I like the way that device works, but that 400 year theory thing is what stood out the most to me....That was interesting af lol You may or may not see more of that in the future *wink wink* |
| Mio's cute. I like her. Thought this episode was better than the 1st, though I couldn't help but laugh at Takuya getting his ass kicked over and over again. Time travel is not on his side there. He tried, at least. |
| So it WASN'T A JOKE when the director ACTUALLY said that Mio will be more on the tsundere style, reminds me of Shana's VA (maybe just the same), and it shows. The episode...kinda turns me off, but in the same way, intrigues me further. Not so much on the comedic side, but more on the supernatural side. The Parallel Constitutive Theorem, the 400-year old theory or whatsoever...it's getting a LOT more convoluted, but Takuya seems to take captive of the instrument while helping Ayumi out, no matter how much he tries. Seems that the "Time Travel" mechanic will be used very often. Still one that warrants a further watch up till Episode 6... |
