| Sonny boy has been great so far. Each episode adds more to the world building and the characters become more interesting from the new insights into their personalities. Well, aside from the MC at least. |
| "Even if it has good reviews, if I don't like it then it is shit" -Some random anime character |
| Aki-sensei has really weird eyes and I'm not convinced she's the "real" version of her. We've seen flashes of similar eyes when Hoshi got in touch with "God". Other than that the teacher is doing on hell of a job of exploiting the vulnerabilities and fear of everyone to create a dangerous mob mentality. As annoying as it is that almost all of the students are turning on Nagara given the circumstances and the incentive of an authority figure pinning the blame on him it's a fairly realistic depiction as how people would behave, especially a bunch of middle school students who've been dealing with insane amounts of psychological distress for months now. |

| I chased fame, fortune and CANDY during MALoween 23 Main :        Bonus:  |
| Everytime I watch this anime it feels like I missed an episode. lol |
 Life is a despicable endurance race |
| Really great episode! Maybe the best one so far and definitely enjoyed it more than the last episode, not that it was bad, the baseball was just too much lmao. I felt like I understand what was happening this episode, but in the whole grand scheme of things I am still very confused. Though I do love how abstract the show is, it's a really unique experience. That scene underwater with the fishes was beautiful. Legit thought I had the sounds muted at the beginning lmao. Also, Nagara drinking that pp juice sideways was hilarious, he seemed much more cheerful this episode. Though I really hate the other kids just blindly blaming Nagara when he himself doesn't know what's going on. I know Hoshi is sus, but I was weirdly very entertained when he was trying to reason with the class, though of course the class chose to side with big titty glasses teacher. I am also curious to what Aki's goals are. I wonder if there are multiple Gods or something or if it's just the same one with different voices. Cause the one that talked to Nagara was different from the one that talks to Hoshi, it was our man Tsuda Kenjiro that talked to Nagara. Mizuho also mentioned that God talked to her also that she was the one responsible for bringing them there. So I guess Nyamazon is not her power but it's the cats themselves that has that power, interesting. Nagara not transporting them but creating new worlds is also really interesting. Jesus, there's too much to take in, really looking forward to the next episode. |
 |
| Damn I felt the pressure for Nagara from over here. |
 Never watched as much anime as I wanted to |
| sensei said: "would like to come with me?" i'd rather reply "i'd definitely like to come to your boobs that's for sure!!!" lolz anywayz, looks like the three Mizuho, Nozomi, Rajdhani suddenly cares about Nagara cuz the moment that the three didn't see him they thought of searching for him... 4/5. |
 |
| Is Asakaze about to gain a god complex cause "Ms.Aki" seems to be hyping his ass up? Also the splitting of that one world like Noah and the sea. |
| Probably my favorite episode so far. Nagara’s actions (while frustrating) are pretty understandable given how little he thinks of himself. I guess Aki really is playing the devil warping the students’ views with lies for whatever end she is hoping for. And it makes sense that the other students buy into her lies because she is an authority figure that is given them an easy way out by blaming Nagara and giving them “hope” by deifying Asakaze. I’m looking forward to seeing what happens next episode. |
| I swear this class is filled with mindless idiots. So a teacher with huge tits (a teacher the students themselves say they don't recognize as their usual educator) appears out of nowhere, claims to know God's plans, tells the students there is no salvation and that Nagara is keeping them trapped in this island world on purpose... and instantly 90% of the class decide to believe in her even though her intentions of bringing chaos to their already unstable group could be seen from fucking Mars. My god... someone please donate a pair of braincells to this hopeless group. |
| man that things when the screen glitches really hate that shit lmao ps. I always get headache when seeing that kind of stuff. |
| About names: The solver mouse was named Armstrong in the show. This might be homage to picture books by Torben Kuhlmann. Armstrong Lindbergh "Robinson plan" written on the white board should come from Robinson Crusoe. When I was looking at credits at the end of episode 5, I realized that many character names were derived from railroad related things. Nozomi Mizuho Asakaze Rajdhani Asama Noto ...and so on. About Hoshi: The official web site of the show says Hoshi's ability is "hope: to embody his image". But, as far as having watched the show to date, this is a misleading description. It seems his ability is to transmit image to others while praying with his hands joined. (It's a mild version of the hypnotic attack that Kimie in Night Head 2041 uses.) This ability was used to Asakaze in episode 1, to Mizuho and classmates in episode 2, to classmates in this episode. But Ace declared "You can't save anyone with your shallow trick." this time. It was also revealed in episode 2 that Hoshi has another ability to communicate with "the voice" who knows the future. The official web site releases useless previews and one of the pictures in the preview for episode 6 shows |

| Oh man, so apparently Nagara wasn't just taking the class to other world's, he was creating other "This World's," and likely for every "This World" that the class has gone to, which is very interesting I'm also curious to see what happens next since at the end of the episode, Ms. Aki offered Asakaze to come with her |

s_hiv said: For some reason I can't say that I like this show. I am extremely intrigued by it, yes. But there has been no major payoff that made me go 'Holy Shit, that was amazing". The only reason I'm still watching the show is for the interest that I have for the show. I'm Not saying that this isn't good. It's just that there's only been building of the mystery till now. I've really been enjoying this, but for me to say that I like this, I'll have to wait for the big payoff to come through. The closest example of what I'm feeling right now would be how I felt while watching steins;gate. P.S. - everything has been looking hella beautiful so far atleast in terms of animation and artstyle. > saying you don't know if you like it > rates it a 9 Jokes aside though I definitely agree with you. The ending is going to be paramount with this series, and my score will probably change based on the final episode. ManWild said: Nozomi is best girl. I thought the character moments this episode were pretty impressive and I think sensei is quite interesting. At this point, I don't think we'll ever get opening visuals and it'll just be credits forever Yeah, I think you're right, I'm guessing they wanted to give the story some extra time to be told without adding episodes. Stark700 said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- This was a dramatic episode with everyone wondering about their future and the state of their world. Unlike the previous episode, there was no room for fun. One thing that did bother me a little about the episode is the dark lighting on some scenes. Still, this episode's buildup had me very interested for the story's future. I actually really liked the dark lighting, it felt more immersive, since that's closer to how it would actually look in real life. Though I can totally understand not enjoying it. |

Thaeyoon said: Don't get mad at me y'all. It was kinda disappointing because of the fan-service big breasts. I think it was really unnecessary. I don't think this kind of anime needs fan-service. Or maybe her big breasts are related to the plot idk. Anyway, I still enjoyed it. It's my favorite anime in this season. As I've said before don't get mad at me, it's my opinion. Nah I agree. I am usually a fan of big tiddy girls but it seems really out of place in this show. Every time her mega-cleavage comes on I cringe a little. I'm loving everything else though. |

| I hate how they treat nagara |

| KNEWW that big booba lady isnt supposed to be trusted. class finally snapped, how they were so calm for a long time is a miracle honestly but man of course they'd had to pin point a blame to someone. "unlike you, we were needed in that world" man must be nice to be able to say that huh. wonder how asakaze will do, he's been an ass this whole time but he's Also been saving them a lot without them knowing(?) so im guessing he's just a bit pissed that nagara was getting all the spotlight. hope his character turns into one of the "good" ones tho |
| Since god was mentioned more than once, and then the teacher appeared to mess with them, I think that she is playing the devil of the show or something like that. I like Nozomi's character a little more with every episode. |
| I sometimes forget to finish my sentences. |
Same! *confused noises* ahhhhhh what's going on, just kill them all but keep the women!!!!  |
 |
| I really do not hate characters who are shy, without self-confidence, cowardice, and ... because I have these qualities, but I really can not cope with this Naragi! he is on my nerve! no more running huh? hope soooo! Rajdhani is definitely a great character in this show. The way he actually tries to get a hold of the situation and defuse dangerous arguments is really refreshing. After all, her real goal seems to be to keep them there, considering that Asakaze has no interest in returning to a world where he's a nobody. |
| When I saw the watering can, I immediately thought of opm lol |
 |
| this episode has the best anime quote. There was a doctor who once told me: "Never ever trust the word of a large-breasted woman. Because all the nutrition goes to her boobs." (Nozomi) |
 Try reading Spy x Family Manga ^_^ U will love it, i promise... |
| This episode started out in a confusing way and I was like “wait the previous episode ended with the big boobed teacher then what's going on” so I had to check if I skipped episode 4. Nagara crying later like that could be so relatable to many introverted students. Now I think this anime mostly revolves around that troublesome phase of the late teenage. That Aki-sensei is so suspicious. What Nozomi said about how you shouldn't trust big boobed women, that's kinda true XD |

| So Nagara power isn't teleportation to another world but more like "creating" all these worlds... the sensei with Asakaza is very suspicious tbh |
 |
| Man wish I could just rape everyone, not sure if thats going to far, but thats the least they need to wake up and stop being little pieces of shits and being so loathing and self pitying. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Could those simpletons be any more fucking annoying. They are so quick to put the blame on others. Aki sensei might have a nice rack but she's a bitch. So Nagara's power is not what we expected eh. Also Mizuho crying for Nagara was sweet. |
 |
| I don't care if Aki sensei's got big boobs or some shit she's being a bitch. How are the other students blindly believing everything she says?Asakaze fell for it. According to Rajdhani, Nagara's power is not to teleport to other world but it's to create new worlds.Man Nagara HAS to stand up for himself This episode was a step-up from the previous one. I like that. Also the scene with the minnows was beautiful. |
 |
| Evil yet hot milf Aki-sensei causing quite the disruption among students, although those idiots turning on Nagara would've occurred sooner or later anyway. Glad Nozomi, Mizuho and Rajdhani are there to stand up for and support Nagara. |
 |
| This anime tries to make exciting moments and fails miserably, tries to make drama and also fails. This anime is stupid. |
| Those other students are unreasonable in blaming Nagara. Although I do understand a little about where they are coming from. |
 |
| Hmm, I did think that it was something like that when the world "reverted" after Mizuho's incident. The way camera lingered on Nagara made it look like he saw Mizuho's looking sad and unconsciously made it so the fire she created never happened. That's why I thought all the stuff reverting to their original appearance was Nagara's power but creating new worlds makes sense too. I guess if you made a second identical world, it will look like the first one reverted. No wonder Asakaze couldn't find a portal lol Also, I'm with Nozomi on Mrs.Aki. Never trust a woman with big boobs. She might be uber hot but she has some sus plans. I hope Asakaze gets talk-no-jutsu and joins the main trio |
 |
| The teacher knows something.. also she's annoying lol |
| So this one is about demagogy down to the use of religion too, is was well done and the scene with Nagara and Nozomi diving was very touching. The one when Nozomi, Mizuho and Rajdhani found Nagara was cute, I like this quartet. |
| I was getting bored of the "figuring out the rules of the island" subplot, so glad to see some actual some actual story unfolding here. I think I know where this is all going, but I'm hoping for a surprise. |
 |
| Best episode yet. The visuals were incredible, especially the minnows in the ocean and the Pac-Man-like world. Classmates are getting dumber and annoying. |
| Its very interesting to see how someone can become a scapegoat for others peoples jelaousy and fears.Just because someone blame Nagara for a second everyone agreed on it without thinking well it kind of how it works in real world too in the same time seeing how fast they believe Aki because they need a ‘savior’ is interesting too.When you look at the whole picture Aki is way more strange then Nagara but when everybody agrees on someting it hard to think otherways . Im still not sure what the deal is with Hoshi . |
| This is such a fever dream. But 90% of the cast are insufferable.. That and I have absolutely no idea what is going on, I fear this will continue and not even be resolved in the end. |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| So, was it all created by Nagara's mind? Makes sense. Anyway, why do they want to leave? Looks like a fantastic place. |

| They are in the gamer world . They have to overcome this world in the right way in order to get their reward. They are conquering these worlds. He is a Gacha machine. They have a beacon to their original world and a means of getting there. They have to save the rebellious mouse. And change the way things work. An interesting piece of advice. She wonders why he is blushing immediately after she mentions boob. Each world has a reward. She claims she was sent there by God. They are forgetting their school motto where they all have to live together. She enforces hers upon him. She claims evolution is approaching. They are unlocking items with powers by conquering worlds. He claims he has always been useless. It’s not like people are worth anything just because they are born. It would be gross to let someone else decide your fate. She found guardian spirits. She gets scared and anxious all the time. And it’s why she does what she does. She is radicalizing them. He is pretending to give up and deep down, wishing for something to change. She has heard the voice of God. He had no choice but to run. They have been operating under a huge misunderstanding. He is able to create new worlds. 5 |
