| I probably wouldn't finish this episode without fast forwarding. It was so melodramatic, I couldn't help but roll my eyes. Maybe I'd feel different if March wasn't increasingly annoying through this arc but I can't bring myself to care about any of the characters, so I doubt it. Just another plot device fulfilling its role. Just a cheap drama that may work on overly emotional viewers. So far looks like first episode was just a bait. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
SouthRzVa said: It's a flaw coming from a lame direction. Actually, some months would have been passed from March's death. (Her mother said "What were you doing for half a year?") Although "half a year later" caption should have been put or different BGM should have been used, two scenes were connected seamlessly. The priority might have been given to the flow of the emotion over comprehensibility.Anyways, still a pretty decent episode overall. I usually end up becoming an ugly mess when it comes to little girls dying but this time, I didn't feel particularly moved. Guess I was more interested in Fushi's development and the surreal fact of Hayase still being able to follow Parona and co. despite having been massacred by "Oniguma" mere minutes ago. |

| "You can be a better mom in my place". That was the arrow who destroyed my heart. |
 |
| I'm a manga reader and even if I knew what was gonna happen it still got me. ................... Good thing to watch all of these parts again animated, now more things that happen later in the series make much more sense, so keep the little details in mind. |
| And so the real pain begins. I ugly cried through about 90% of this episode. It just broke me when March’s spirit cried out that she didn’t want to die and that she actually managed to save Perona through Fushi, who’s now experienced loss. I just wish that he’d finished Hayase off and that Perona hadn’t missed the headshot. The soundtrack did an amazing job of really driving all the emotions home, from the joy when they managed to escape to the heartbreaking when March died. I thought I’d be okay since I've read the manga but the music just brought another layer to the story that had me experiencing things like I hadn’t. |

Kalyteros said: I have only said this to two anime, Steins;Gate and A Silent Voice, but this anime is looking to be a masterpiece Funny given that Fumetsu has the same author as A Silent Voice. ^^ |
| That crazed look by Hayase at the end was something else. She was probably extremely traumatized by Fushi's attack. She definitely deserves it, but I wonder if she will come back into the story and how she will have changed since. |
 |
| Ah..... It's a terrible day for rain.... |

| The best and most heart-wrenching episode so far. I didn't expect March would die (sniff..) though I probably should due to the nature of the story. I think it's impressive that they still have not killed Hayase though. I think her fate is to die a very slow and agonizing death, first by being deformed physically, then mentally and eventually completely losing her sanity while looking for Fushi. Meanwhile Fushi evolves fast, gets even stronger, adopts even more forms and heals even faster, so good luck with that. Mere arrows will no longer cut it. Next episode looks intriguing. Another supernatural entity besides Fushi? I wonder if it was unleashed by his creator (listed as "Kansatsusha" in the credits) to get him to evolve even faster. |
 |
| Looks like Fushi will now have to deal with crazy obsessed Hayase stalking him wherever he goes. Question : Did Fushi see or felt March's ghost/presence? |

| Loved the episode but something I found pretty distracting was the size of March's corpse which Parona was holding at the end of the episode. Does anybody else think ig looked awfully tiny? I checked and in the manga it looked about the same size at that point but earlier it is shown to be clearly bigger. I know March was a shall Girl but IT looked like she was carrying a 3 month old baby in that blanket. Still a 10/10 episode and I cried like a bitch, that detail kinda took me out a little tho. |
| I am kind of not fazed by what happened in this episode because it was almost clear that the boy/wolf/stone will not understand feelings or how to be human without witnessing those deaths. The first episode truly had an impact on me, but I saw March's death coming. I still expected the author to keep her alive to show more of her influence on the boy. Alas, that did not happen. And if I'm being honest, 5 episodes in but I'm not very impressed. |

| I sometimes forget to finish my sentences. |
| But a few episodes back March's head was bigger than Parona's when they were shown side by side. The mystery deepens. |
| Maybe I would have felt moved and sad if there weren't so many inconsistencies in this show. The horses pulling their cart destroyed a wooden door like it was nothing, and after that there was a brutal transition between the characters being outdoor in the forest and them being right in the middle of the city. And on a more subjective level, if March didn't start to become completely annoying and if Palona acted rationally instead of complying to March's childishness. I don't know if it's an adaptation problem or if the author just doesn't care about writing a coherent story with elements making common sense, but it's getting hard for me to not notice all these inconsistencies and brush them over. Seems like next week the story will take a shounen turn with a charismatic and powerful villain or whatever being introduced. I honestly don't know what to think about this show anymore. I was baited by people saying Fumetsu no Anata e was the new Mushishi but I don't see any similarities between them. I thought there would at least be a lot of work on the atmosphere (this including the music in particular) in Fumetsu like it was done for Mushishi, but that's not the case. The mood is very different, and honestly Fumetsu's stories felt really cheap to me until now. I'll still try to watch the next arc episodes to see if they can change my mind, but right now the probability I drop the show is high, unfortunately. |

| It wasn't just some tears, I was basically loud-sobbing like some psycho.. TT_______TT |
 |
| fkkkkkkkk. I freakin' teared up! I totally did not expect that to happen! I am still processing what just happened. |
| Now it's hard for me to get attached to any of the characters since I feel like anyone Fushi meets will end up dying or part ways or something. ;-; |
Manga18 said: THe real question is "why should I care?" I spent the first minutes hoping the little girl diead to give the MC some development, then I hopen the older girl died too to raise chances of deveopment. Not for one second I was sad about them risking their life Same. March was annoying af. |
| Alright, we're done with March's arc. It may sound bad but not even in the manga i managed to get attached to her so I'm not surprised the anime didn't give me much of an impact either although the voice acting and emotion was nice. I am excited for next arc though, I really like Pioran |
 "In the past few months since we met, I've shared many memories with Nagato. Though I've also shared memories with Haruhi, Asahina-san and Koizumi, I found that I've experienced more events with Nagato in particular. In fact, every situation seems to involve her. I might as well mention this, she's probably the only person to cause the bell within me to shake the most vigorously..." ~ Kyon, TMOSH |
| It's been a really long time since an anime made me cry. I know that a lot of people were sad when the white haired boy died in the first episode, but I honestly didn't really care for him 'cause it was obvious he'd die so that Fushi could have a human form (and he only was there for one episode). But the second March got shot I just started crying and didn't stop until the end. She was such a precious little girl and her death was done really well imo. I felt horrible for her and Parona. What a shame Hayase got to live. Fushi turning into the bear and wreaking havoc was awesome tho. Next episode looks great as well, I just gotta recover from this ^^' |
There's no possible way you can steal my heart    I want to drown in this sweet Melancholy |
| I honestly haven’t cried this much on an episode of anime in a longggg time. Wow. 10/10 |
 |
| Shit... this is how it's done. The build up from all the previous episodes come through on this episode. There's always an anime that out of the blue strikes you like this, Parona being a big sister to March while always smiling like her deceased sister would smile to her, just made the end even more moving. |
| I knew that she was going to die but DAMN i still cried like a baby anyway. I was holding back tears until Parona showed March's parents her letter with her tiny handprint on it. It made me bawl my eyes out, this is so unfair. Other than that, amazing episode as always, it made me feel a lot, just like episode 1. Can't wait to see next week's episode ! |
| I AM NOT CRYING! NOT AT ALL! |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| bruh i'm fucking heartbroken... i literally feel sick from all the crying i've done she's such a sweet kid, i'm so annoyed she got killed off after everything :( :( :( i 100% played myself, mal randomly suggested manga vol #11 to me the other day which has [redacted] on the cover so i was like OMG NO WAY??? so i figured they'd all survive... but... *sniffling* man i'm not a clown but the entire circus |
