| With an episode this intense, it seems they still put a lot of responsibility on Shinpei's shoulders. Seeing all the different Shadows clash made this episode feel like a climax. What a bloody ending. Damn. |
 |
| Hizuru's fighting skills aren't second to anyone, be it with a sledgehammer or with a spear she can have her go with anything. That's something we all know at this point. Though heart goes out for her when she blames herself for Ryuunosuke's demise, given how her getting close to Haine back then eventually was the point when everything started going downfall. So a chance to redeem herself by making the very existence of shadows disappear from this island is that thing she's dead set on. That coordinated attack with Ryuunosuke certainly did a number on Shide but so it did on Hizuru. Again not sure with the deal of two Shide(s) at two places at the same time when they basically confirmed both are humans, them being twins or something is the only plausible outcome. Also I remember Shinpei mentioning some episodes ago in that meeting at gymnasium that at most he can only loop once more as the limits were dreadfully closer, and that last chance is the one he’s having right now. But… NO he looped again and is even talking about looping once again lol. Leaving those things aside Hizuru’s gone, courtesy of Shinpei looping again and thus the whole redo of that clash between her and Shide, giving him the chance to deliver that final blow. But again it won't be worth getting surprised over if somehow she returns back later on. |
 |
| Okay, that definitely took a turn for the worse! Shide, the real antagonist? Well, that's interesting. Shinpei used up all his retries but couldn't manage to save Hizuru-san. On the bright side, though, there's Mio and Sou along with Tokiko and Nezu-san who are alive now. I wonder what that light close to Shinpei was all about, could it be Ushio? |

| Naaaaah bro ain’t no fucking way my baby gone fr??? Nahhh man I refuse to believe Hizuru is really dead. Pain. They gotta pull some time shenanigans at the end. I don’t think ushio is really gone either so there’s gotta be a way. The story’s done an amazing job of just making you feel hopeless. Down to Mio and Ryunosuke as the only “super power” having people left, I just don’t see how that’ll be enough. I think they’ll have to rely on getting Haine to see shide’s deception rather than a straight up battle against them. Gonna be a crazy next month or so of summertime render, hoping they stick the ending. Shide being the real one behind everything isn’t really a surprise. When it was revealed that he was transferring his memories from body to body throughout the centuries it was pretty evident that he had ulterior motives and was using Haine’s abilities for his own gain. What that gain is? I don’t know, but it’s certainly not as peaceful as “going home”. Shadow mio has actually been getting a lot of personality in these last few eps. I’m liking it. |

| Hizuru's death took me out. While I have a feeling Ushio might come back in the end, Hizuru is definitely gone for good. I hate the feelings of hopelessness this anime leaves you with. It's gonna be great seeing Shide get what's coming to him, that bastard. |
 |
| Rest in peace, Hizuru. "As far as endings go...this isn't so bad. It's not about how long you lived. It's about... It's about how well you lived!" Best girl died. :) |
  |
| i knew if one of them died it'd be her... but maaaaaaaaaaan.... |

| Production team really do be killin' off characters like that, and this time, it's rather more permanent than a simple loop back. All I can see from this episode is that the main cast is being decimated left and right, and with the Event Horizon closing in at a faster pace, Shinpei will have to deal with that reality. On the more pressing matter, it really does feel like it was a "A soul for a soul;" while we do see a resurgence of Ryuunosuke's character (even just for half the episode and the only remnant of the twins that carries on in the series), it does come at the cost of Hizuru's life. Of course, this hits Shinpei the hardest as she was one of the more powerful allies on the cast, and seemed very desperate to loop back again before being stopped by shadow Mio. In that instance, I feel, it was the best representation of Shinpei's character throughout this series: while he may seem calm, calculated, and outwitting, his caring side of appears more often than not of wanting to help as many people as possible—a common theme held by Western comic book superheroes. "Haine might be a monster, but her original personality was a lonely girl who loved to be spoiled. A lone child. Shide's goal differs from hers." As said by Hizuru on her dying breath, Shinpei, and also for the viewer by extension, will also have to alter his perspective on the situation going forward, most especially with Shide. While this was mentioned in the previous loop towards the beginning of the episode, it doesn't become effective to the plot until this point. With such a great loss in this episode, we could probably argue whether it was worth it to loop in the middle of the episode or not, but it is clear that the constant factor in all this remains. However, a glimmer of hope, an actual one for that fact, seemed to have glistened at the tail end before Haine & Shide retreat underground. While it was observant to see many rooting for the return of Ushio at some point, I'm going to hold off on that hype train and wouldn't rest my thinking on that just yet. "It ain't about how long ya lived. But how well ya use yer life." Ngl, this has to be one of the better quotes to live by |

| Oh boy, another best girl falls in this episode. It's even worse now since, in the previous loop, they actually managed to come up with such a good plan and Ryuunosuke even got a body. Another thing, Shide might really be the final boss, after all, disguising himself as a general. That's good since he feels more intimidating to me, personality-wise, than Haine. |
 |
| Dude fuck man FUCK! Like I thought this was a well done episode but fuck man...pour one out for Hizuru...god dammit this one hit me hard as hell. God im disappointed. They better give Shide the business by the end of this anime. Ushio still alive with that shining yellow light though??? My only gripe is that I thought Shinpei was already at his limit before he reset. Side note: Those kids he saved before are dead too. |

| I like how Shide because he has 4 arms, he can shrug with one pair while at the same time keeping his other pair of arms folded. Since Haine and Shide are pretty much looping back with Shinpei, I wonder if Shinpei considered the possibility that Shide would beat Hizuru this time around, since Shide basically gets a redo of the fight. Granted, Shide didn't know exactly what was going on on Hizuru's end, and in fact didn't know whether she was alive or not. Mio and Tokiko (and the others?) were already dead at that point, so of course a loop was necessary at that point. I just would've like to see Shinpei at least consider in his mind that Hizuru would be in more danger in her second confrontation with Shide. Man, I can barely imagine what this would be like to binge watch straight through. We're watching this weekly, we have a good chunk of time to "recover" and to sort of let things sink in after every harrowing episode. But to watch this straight from start to finish all at once, with something of high significance happening pretty much at the end of EVERY episode?? That would probably feel like an unrelenting flurry of punches to the gut delivered in rapid succession. |
  NYANPASU  whiskey tango foxtrot |
| this episode was really weak compared to the rest imo 5/10 |
 |
| RIP G-cup sensei. Fridays won't be as fun as it is now. |
 |
| Hizuru badass till the end. |
 |
| Great episode! Hizuru moves very fast and is good with the spear. She wants to redeem herself as she blames herself for Ryuunosuke's death. She tells Haine about what Shide said on the end of the third loop about their motives being different-this is my ending' but he dismisses it and tells Haine she is lying. Ryuuosuke is now a shadow born from Shide's mud! But Hizuru isn't in great shape... Tokiko comes to save her luckily. Shadow Mio can sense the original has died... She searches Shide's memories but he has none! Shadow Mio and Shinpei find Tokiko and she asks them to save Ryuunosuke but she dies after... But Shinpei decides not to go as they may be already dead. He wants to loop again to save everyone and shoots himself in the head. He stops Mio and Sou from going to where they were lured by the shadow. Shinpei rides on shadow Mio to get to Torajima and sees Shide's attack. And... Hizuru is already injured! Nezu says they need to escape as they have no chance. But in the end, it is Haine and Shide who escape. Hizuru isn't dead yet and Shinpei tries to shoot himself so he can save her... but shadow Mio stops him. Hizuru tells him Shide is most likely using Haine and to free her. She entrusts yuunosuke to Shinpei... and dies. Looking forward to the next episode! |
| AISHITERU...REM! |
| Hyped for the ending, the story gets better with each episode |
 |
| fkkkkkkk why they do this !!! rip nagumo sensei !! atleast this show is pretty good and awesome to watch !! |
| Okay, first Ushio, now Nagumo-sensei. Two top waifus in the series *DEAD* Imma gonna cry in the corner for a sec. However entertaining this may be, this series is certainly has not been an easy watch. Shinpei better bring those two back in the end, or I'm just going to....meh.. root for Shide. |
| I think that Ushio and Hizuru will be able to come back. One thing that was different this episode is that before his loop Shinpei could see where he would land. So maybe he is getting used to his powers. Previously we found out that he doesn't have full control of his loops and that's why each time there is less time. But maybe he will be able to loop to any point in time. Also at the end there was some light near Shinpei and Haine got scared, so maybe that is also a clue to Shinpei having more powers or something. |
| This Anime KEEPS on surprising me with how well-written it is, the great animation is a plus but the writing is superb. The only thing standing in this anime's way from being a 10/10 show is the ending... I have high hopes that it will land the ending well and become a modern classic anime. |
| rip hizuru i don't think shes coming back this time |
 |
| Hizuru's death and the ost ....... |
 |
| WOW, no comments for me to report violations? How bliss. xD In an episode that definitely is an Evangelion reference more than anything, Shide vs. Hizuru/Ryuunosuke, and more than a power of strength, it's speed and agility as well. But Haine is also more active thanks to the copying ability whom she managed to copy Shinpei and borrow his body for a soul, and from life to death, Hizuru would prefer being a living sacrifice to save people from Shadows. And she eventually found a way to force Ryuunosuke into Shide and break him from within, which is a small victory. On the other side, Shinpei and Shadow Mio encountering yet another Shide, and despite his wordy endeavor, he turned out to be an empty hollow shell. But for who's actually being sideswiped, it's them instead of Hizuru/Ryuunosuke. And of all things that Shinpei chooses to save in the battle against time, the original order still stands to save Mio. The 9th loop commences, and Torajima is on the list to go and save Tokiko and the others. Of course, both Haine and Shide are aware of the loop, but this comes with the biggest ceveat that they lost the valuable Hizuru in the process. Shinpei can choose to loop again, but as much as he can do, it's pointless and asceertain that someone else will be killed. To that, Hizuru issues her final ultimatum as she converses with her last breath: to save Haine from being used by Shide. First Ushio, now Hizuru, the death flags just don't stop coming... |
