Oh I see it now. This had Talentless Nana vibes since episode 1. MC is basically Nana and she will slowly start getting attached to the Isekai-girl and will likely even betray her mission.

Damn, we have to deal with "time" again.

I've seen someone having a pretty good theory. Isekai-girl and MC were good friends once already, but MC died (just like in OP) and the Isekai-girl then reset world-time. That would explain why now none of them remember the past, yet share the same dream.


It's striking how many similarities with TN there is not only in the plot but even in the characters and their relationships and their roles and quite likely future developments.
Even Momo strongly reminds me of Moe. As i said on dicord this is basically TN but an isekai and whole thing is a Michiru's arc. I'am surely not complaining though, afterall it's what got me to this series in the 1st place.

This was a pretty good episode all thing considered.. Wonder why everyone is whining imo.. the Animation wasn't as bad as some isekai anime have tbh.. and yea.. the characters aren't exactly the pie of the show but the Lost one's acting like that makes sense..

If I isekai'ed somewhere, I will 100% act goofy and not take anything serious XD

The ED is a bit meh..

My theory: in past timeline they were school friends, like shown in Menou's dreams and alluded by Akari's tears, and they were both summoned to this new world, but without the Faust yet killing the Lost Ones. There is also a possibility that Menou was supposed to be summoned instead of Mitsuki, but in the new timeline she was already there.

Menou lost control, causing world ending catastrophe, and Akari reset the timeline, but made it so Menou stayed in this world. If the powers have infinite potential, selective time manipulation seems possible. Pure Concept is probably unlocked by the summoning process, but since Menou does not go through it in the reset timeline she does not have it anymore.

This might not be even the first time Akari reset time. It probably took couple of tries to learn that Menou has to stay in another world in order for history to not repeat itself.

Some interesting ideas these past 2 episodes. Very similar to Talentless nana which I thought was an aight show. My big complaint so far is I'm not liking any of the characters. We'll see if they get better.

Its funny how she came back to life after being killed and say hello to her killer.

forgot to say on my previous post.. it felt a bit grim when Menou and Akari are having casual talk eating breakfast, while isekai boy is dead and buried just outside. And I had to laugh a bit when Menou said that "he did not survive his injuries". lol

Seriously people I don't know why the unjustified hatred they have towards anime? it's fine, the animation to be from jc staff is very good, the premise had an original plot twistwhy the score is coming down? Why is the isekai of the skeleton dude, which is a thousand times more generic, having a better impressions? ☹☹☹

ah, this baby-brained attitude explains why the series currently has a rating a bit lower than it deserves. most anime fans complain about generic isekai, but clearly there's a strong contingent out there that think it's the best thing, that generic harem isekai power fantasies are peak, and apparently also have a lifetime maidenless mindset. You will be alone until you adjust your attitude, buddy.


ppl apparently also missed the part that this anime is one of a few anime where all the characters legit dont shout their moves/skills/techniques out loud in battle

also, always aim for the head, bravo! bravo! lol

The music this week was a lot less obnoxious and weird. It was even fitting in places. There were also zero further incidents of groping. It didn't leap around in time and space to go to strange lunatics making silly faces, so it was theoretically a more cohesive package. But that's it. That's all the good of this episode, which was mostly failing to do the horrible things the first episode did. Unfortunately, it didn't replace them with literally anything at all. The already moderate budget crashed to rock bottom, resulting in an entire episode of talking heads, and with it, any thoughts of pacing went in the crapper.

The really inexplicable thing to me is how easily she gives up trying to kill this girl. She revives from being stabbed once… extremely slowly, and without any idea of what happened, and they're just like "Well, crap. Never seen any kind of regeneration ability before, and the clock sound must be rewinding time, this is hopeless." Have you tried dropping a rock on her? Or tying her to one and throwing it in the ocean? How about a slow acting poison? Spiking the brain? You're really half-assing this assassin thing. "Well, I tried stabbing her once, and it didn't work. I'm all out of ideas." Now let me bring this supposedly dangerous world-threatening person to the middle of the city and wander off while she can play with children. Yeah, uh, okay, writers.


remember what happened to the girl who had the pure concept of white? lol she lost control and almost decimated everyone in the whole continent,
luckily the archbishop and menou's master were there to stop her. and it wasn't even one of the big 4 catastrophes caused by the lost ones

thats why menou has been trying to make akari happy? obviously in order to reduce the possibility of her going berserk

ever heard of soft approach is a lot better than the hard one?
its like when the CT trying to defuse a bomb, using hard approach would only make it explode faster?

I like Momo a lot more than I expected. She's not simply jealous of Akari, and her worries are well founded.

aziryn said:
This is the biggest misconception I continue to read.

The Faust has a belief that the power of concept will continue to ERODE the mind of the lost ones, so that control is not a possibility. They make it sound like the power of concept will have its own will essentially.

Y'all gotta stop with this nonsense, like do you pay attention to the episodes? It was said several times.

Now I said it's their belief, weather it's true or not is yet to be seen.

(Though I am in agreement and screw the Faust, religious factions are always evil AF)


This is the right take. All of our information on the summoned Earth people and their powers so far comes from the Faust, and they could be lying or hiding stuff. But to be fair, I had to rewind a few times myself, and I've read a bit of the manga, so I don't blame folks for not getting everything right.

I think it’s safe to say this show won’t be a drop. Menou and Akari have good chemistry, there’s good worldbuilding, and side characters appear to be well-written. I still wish the animation was more lively during talking scenes though.

Lol this is one of the craziest takes I have seen yet. I think it was pretty obvious he wasn't coming back. I do think episode 1 was poorly executed and unneeded, but if you watched episode 2 I feel like it addressed and clarified all the issues I had with episode 1.

As for episode 2 I thought it was much better. Momo was much less annoying and I hope it stays that way. Also, the talk Menou had with the older woman really did a good job of explaining why they have to execute the other worlders. There was also a little talk between Momo and Menou that clarified why they can't needlessly do things that might not kill them off completely or kill them slowly. I'm assuming since Akari is one of the two main characters they won't be able to execute her. I'm going to be really interested to see why exactly the cathedral they are taking Akari to can't successfully execute her. Also will be fun to see their reactions and plan going forward when they fail.

That was even worse than the last episode, and it doesn't help that any impact that had wore off over the past week. The new girl seems shallow, the existing cast is still meagre, I don't see any reason to waste a moment longer with this.

This is actually getting more interesting and this is what I expect from other generic Isekai's anime, a story that actually gives an explanation that makes sense, not some random BS where it's because MC is OP or magic or stuff and the also no stupid shit like where all the characters praising or in love with the MC like a fucking idiot

Will Menou be the girl of the season? We'll see but so far, definitely haha
But honestly, this looks a lot like Munou no Nana, where she had to kill everyone without thinking, but we'll see i guess.
But so far so good!

Well it definitely has a lot more going for its plot than the standard "there's a demon lord and we need to get stronger to defeat it"

Was pleasantly surprised by the rather solid and clean animation... until we got CGI CROWD YIKES

Gotta love Menou reprimanding Akari for using magecraft, and then getting reprimanded back for using magecraft herself to help cover up Akari using magecraft

So I guess the dude from the last episode is actually dead, dead. You get an annoying character, and they're immediately KILLED. S-tier anime

A good episode, and I’m really excited to see where Akari’s powers go. I have a feeling Momo is very right to be worried about what is gonna happen between these two for multiple reasons! I’m glad she’s acting somewhat less awful than she did in episode 1.

That ED was really good… I love the visual look of it, like a memory you can’t quite recall right.

This show is so weird to me, the premise is serious but 80% of the runtime is yuri bait. I feel like it's too in between trying to be serious and trying to be light hearted that it just falls flat. Like the contrast from the serious moments of trying to murder the innocent isekai people to then listen to the annoying Momo girl 30 seconds later is too big for me

Priestess are suppose to be Pure, Just and Strong...

I am pretty sure it's just Strong, there's nothing Pure and Just about murder.

Interesting episode however, the end hinted that Akari activated her power.

Tho the downside of her power is... apparently Akari herself also doesn't remember anything that happened before the rewind?

Too bad, she would have been Basuru#2 from Re:Zero

My wild guess is that Akari will cause time-loop once her powers go berserk (maybe after Menou getting injured/killed).
2nd guess is that Akari will time-travel or reverse time and save Menou as a child in the past which would explain Akari's shadowy appearance in Menou's memories. 3rd guess is that Menou got isekai'ed too but it's very unlikely because it doesn't seem that they ever summon children.

All those theories have issues, for example - can Akari reverse time beyond the time of summoning? Probably not, because people gain powers after being summoned. But we don't even know what's the extent of Akari's power - can she just reverse time or maybe she can travel through time freely?

Isekai and time travel themes together. Depending how the plot goes, this show can be either really great or simply crap.

i don't like this new girl at all. it's both the character itself and her english va. if this keeps up i'll have to drop the show

this executioner chick is kind of bothering me also. i like her character. i have no complaints about the va. but she DREAMS about this girl and despite that, she kills her just a few moments after finally finding her? good grief. that just makes no sense. i know she's a fanatic believer in this executioner thing, but c'mon man! someone from your dream appearing to you in real life didn't make you stop and reconsider things for a moment?

though, admittedly, i do kind of wish she'd just kill her and get it over with. and then let the show get back on with itself

i like the assistant executioner chick whatever also. and this princess seems interesting

first episode: 7/10
this episode: 4/10, maybe 5, idk

I could do without Momo's jealousy, but it's not like Menou is much better either. I don't particularly care for either of their attitudes in this episode. Right now Akari appears to be the main reason to keep watching. I think she'll stay pretty safe due to her ability, but I'd feel a lot better if she started to develop it at least a little, even if it has to be in secret.

OP/ED are pretty good.
