DAMNN, what an episode. So pink haired girl is all but confirmed to either be a time traveller or have some knowledge of what’s going on with Kyouya. How would she have been there in the middle of that rain just waiting for him? Not really a shock that Kyouya and best girl ended up together in the future either, but not this way.. crazy cliffhanger, can’t wait for next week

LMFAO well that was certainly a way to end an episode

kinda hurting my brain to think about why tsurayuki's pen name is also kyoichi in the future if kyoya and him had never even met; is it just a coincidence?

also the pink haired girl showing up like that without an umbrella in the pouring rain looking incredibly suspicious tells me that she knows what's up

now how did mc end up back in the future again and married to shinoaki??? my brain hurts

I DEFINITELY wasn't expecting this ending holy sh*t, caught me by surprise and I loved it.

The "Platinum generation" can't evolve and get better without having to solve their own problems, so in this timeline, everyone can end up like the original Kyouya, since he is stopping them from evolving.

okay, since the pink-haired girl first appearance I felt something weird about her, now I'm positive that she is involved with the mc time travel, I just have no idea how Kyouya was first sent to the "past". great ep
Being an anime fan is like having a penis. Its nice to be proud of it, but don't pull it out in public and wave it in other's faces.

Omg...


this was insane and something I did not expect. It was clear as day who he married before it was shown but damn.

This made the series have a new layer and I think it's interesting

I'm somewhat glad Kyoya got a little bit of a reality check in this episode. In previous episodes he essentially became a Gary Stu - he did everything, every girl fell for him, etc. The realization that he didn't change their lives, they already had their paths laid out regardless definitely hit him hard.

I like how it branched out a little bit from a general harem, for now at least. I wonder what will happen from here on out considering we're 2/3s through the series at this point. The cliffhanger was insane, too.

Really good episode, but I find it strange that this was a shocking reveal for alot of people. It's both a time travel plot 101 and also something that's been telegraphed for a while. MC has been criticized this entire time for being a Gary Stu OP character when he was clearly stealing info from the future to manipulate the past. That's why he was so good, not because he was gifted. On top of that we all knew that Platinum generation existed without him so clearly he was going to disrupt the flow. The hints have been there all along

EDIT: Now were going to have the Avengers End Game conundrum - does he fix his mistakes and erase his daughter from the future or does he continue to live his life in this warped future

''Oh, I didn't go that time traveling and my actions can change the future'' - Kyouya.

Anyway, they managed to complete the game after pulling an all nighter. You can never erase all the bugs xD.
Tsurayuki ends up leaving even tho he has the money to pay for college. He felt lost after seeing Kyouya and his actions. Rest in peace for his pen name too but of course, it's pretty obvious that the MC will handle this problem.

Now Kyouya's dealing with the consequences of his actions. From the moment he pitched the train platform idea, I had a hunch he'd be "stealing" Tsurayuki's place in history; that both having successful careers was mutually exclusive. Those lines were really on the nose. So the recap reminded me there's a magical girl character that looks like Keiko in 2016, is Keiko the one that brought Kyouya to the past. This time, she sent Kyouya to the future.


2018; that's two years after he left his original time of 2016 (when Shinoaki was a successful illustrator). His daughter must be older than 2, I wonder if the next episode is about Shinoaki being in a future where her career is being held back by having a family with Kyouya.

Anyway, Kyouya, please choose a timeline where you're with Nanako....

Kawasegawaa Eiko is so talented.

Now that Tsurayakis arc is over, this arc has to have Kawasegawa Eiko involved, because Kyouya and Eiko has the same fate in the future in terms of how it happens. So it affects both of their future as well as a result being successful.

Interesting plot twist. When things seemed to going well, Kyouya finally realized that he's been ruining other people's lives by carrying them. Probably my favorite episode by far and I bet next episode bouta be fire as well.

Honestly, this show was needing some drama as the plot was being too linear for a long while.

Now, from a third person perspective, that future doesn't seem to be as bad as it looks. But in time-travelling stuff you never know how it is for the others lol

Those last 6 minutes threw so many curveballs at us...

Tsurayuki dropping out of school and revealed the name he was gonna use if he was making it big.. - Keiko eyes being cold AF and she definitely knows more about the time travel than she is giving away - Kyoya going back to 2018 instead of 2016 where he came from, waking up to his daughter and Shinoaki as his wife?? EXCUSE ME??? So much to process. Also let's not forget the fact that Shinoaki grew up even better, didn't think it was possible.

Now I wonder where they will go from here, is he going back in time again, to set the things right that he changed with his meddling? Or are they going to chase down Tsurayuki to set him on the path he belongs on? This threw this show wide open and I love it.

time travel + harem is such a strong concept. And moments like this ending demonstrate why. You can fully develop and even conclude relationships without having to sacrifice the balancing effect of the harem.

This makes me even more excited for the story possibilities that are to come

so Kyouya has been driving us nuts the whole season with his melding and during the game dev time i was really hoping it would blow up in his face...but with that ending going straight to 100 i didn't think it'd blow up this big

from the start i figured like another show there would also be someone else that was a looper too but did no think it'd be keiko lol i did find it a bit suspect that the typical smart grownup that looks like a loli was just there for the sake of being there but she sure changed the tone by the end

am interested in seeing where this goes since it's remembered it's time traveling plot

Finally, an interesting episode. I hope MC won't resolve this by going to the past and fix things, that would be boring.

Also, who actually is Keiko-senpai?? She also appeared as a character for Success Soft game from episode 1, and now it seems that she knows something about the time loop. Suspicious.

Alright, bad ending for Kyouya first remake life. The game finished in a good appreciation, but also its lead him into finishing his happy story there too. Lmao. Never expect the whole thing turned out into this. Its too fast from my first prediction. I know that somehow Tsurayuki will be back on his nerves breaking again. But never thinks he would do that one final blow. So, thats it. He dropped it out all at the end, and explained how he comes up with the penname of the previous future peek. Paradox shit, my dude, and the mc mind has been blown. The loli pink-haired revealed to be the god of Kyouya's remake phenomenon, and even kindly enough to provided the one last true ending of those 'bad' ending of Kyouya. He married her.

Feels bad for Nanako? Or even Kawasegawa? No need. Because, alright. Remake it all over again, god loli.

Wow.... This show is a real try hard, it's becoming sad, really....
It was a really-really generic time leap show at the beginning, so I think: "Eh, why not. I have time to waste....". Then it became a try hard show with this EP....
A generic title should stay generic I think, because that's what it's audiences are looking for: "a generic show that they didn't have to think much about". If you really want to make a deeper show, start to build the depth from the beginning, so that your audiences will know that this is a "deep" show and make decision whether to continue watching or not from early on. Otherwise, it would just be a half-assed try-hard show like this one (and some others).
Well, it is an LN title originally. A lot of the time an LN writer doesn't really know the directions they are going and just flow with the time. So, yeah, that may answer my complaints.

This episode made me think that I wanted everyone to have an arc where they need to rely on Kyouya less, but then that last half of the episode came and it all flew out into the open! (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

Honestly, this was a great episode. The cliffhanger especially makes me wonder what route this is gonna go down in! Hoping it ends well.

I have to admit, I was fully expecting the harem thing to drag on, and I would have probably ended up dropping. Instead they pulled this out and the show is interesting again! I don't even know what to think about this change yet, but they definitely got me good and I want to see what happens next.

The whole situation was like pepeMeltdown ppOverheat. It's the final stretch and yes there are a lot of bugs that are appearing now in their game. That's not a good sign. Good thing was, that they were able to sell it.

The problem now is that it all took a huge toll on Tsurayuki's mental and he thinks he didn't do anything and was just a hindrance to all. Every time Kyouya was there to help him. Looks like Kyouya fucked up everyone's future unintentionally. And, what's that in the end.

If Kyouya messed up this future, how come the future Tsurayuki in the original timeline still has "kyou" in his penname? Does it refer to another? Or, did they encounter each other in the past of the original timeline? Time travel gives me a headache, must be the tachyons.

I also remember seeing Hashiba Kyouya credited on that same article during the night bus scene.

Damn, best episode of the show so far. Definitely had fun with the previous episodes, but all of those were definitely just build up for this, Jesus. Kyouya definitely fucked up, but can you really blame the man, he had a chance to change his life and he was too focused on it.

Definitely felt the stress when they were at crunch time, that's anxiety inducing. The game sold well, but at what cost? He really made the platinum generation too dependent on him. Keiko mad sus though.

Shinoaki won, but it don't feel like a victory T_T. Really looking forward to the next episode.

So shino Aki won
But that's also confirms that she lost too
Cuz if inevitable that kyouka will try to do time leap in past again to stop meddling in platinum era that's what will lead him to make distance between himself and his friends....
But.....
That red haired girl( I forgot name lol)
Is not a part of platinum era so kyouka will feel safe and will become more close to her leading to develop feelings for her.....

All of this is what I am predicting this not a Spoiler Just my imagination
