looks like I was wrong about him being her father, which means trouble for Meroko :(

I wonder if the doctor recognized Takuto and that's why he disliked him so much, I kinda doubt it though.

I'm pretty sure that the things that Izumi has been doing would be frowned upon even more that what Negi Ramen has been up to. trying to kill two people before their time has got to be a worse offense than trying to help someone have fewer regrets before dieing on time :/

I thought the same thing for a while there: that Takuto was her dad. I didn't want him to be Mitsuki's father! Him liking her and then discovering that he's actually her daddy is just gross and wrong.

I'm glad he isn't though, but then where does that leave Meroko? I don't want her heart to be broken.....even though she sold out to Izumi in Ep 44 but I forgive her :P

I have to admit that I cried a little lol when the grandma was telling her that she didn't want Mitsuki to die. I don't like hearing about death and seeing people cry about it...it makes me cry D: even if they arent real DD:

I'm a bandwagon whore

Glad to see Mitsuki is actually out if her stupor now :D
I don't want Takuto to become a ghost Meroko will be broken-hearted..n.n
As for Izumi-kun...my friend who read the manga told me about his backround (which doesn't appear in the anime) and i find myself hating him less o.O

So Takuto was one of the members of Route L. Now it all makes sense when he said back in those early episodes that he knew that song Mitsuki sang.

I am so relieved the Takuto saved Mitsuki's grandmother, her last relative living. It would have been very sad if she died saving Mitsuki there.

I dunno where it is going! But I have to watch the remaining 7 episodes by tonight no matter what!

It's definitely interesting (and rare) to see Izumi talk so much in an episode ^^
I like how he told Mitsuki that there were cats and rabbits on the moon which symbolized Takuto and Meroko's respective hat styles.

Izumi really knows how to manipulate people well. And it seems like Takuto's memory problem is getting even worse. But at least we have an idea that he was in the Route L band.

Can't wait to see what happens next.

Ah, so I was right about Takuto all along! Figured it out when they first asked about the singer in Route L and there were no photos.

Izumi is evil.

I wonder how things will play out now that Takuto has remembered! I hope Wakaoji gets to see him.

Meroko... I don't like her very much.

I thought for sure Takuto and Meroko would be Mitsuki's parents, as if they had been sent to watch over their daughter. This is a bit better though, Takuto falling for Mitsuki felt so awkward when I had him pegged as her father.

Glad to see Mitsuki has come back to her sense, I don't know if I could bear to watch more of her suffering as an empty shell. Although it doesn't make her situation better, but I'm still crossing my fingers and hoping.

Saw this coming from a mile away. I wonder why the doctor didn't recognize the name Takuto.

Great reveal and some things became clearer retrospectively.

Emotionally gripping episode again.

And Izumi,please go to hell.

Mitsuki was badly manipulated this ep, that must have felt like a dream. Thank God Izumi's plan only lasted one episode, I can't stand his attitude. Does he need a special device to kill a person? He simply shot the old guy but the grandpa was already due to passed away . I wonder where Jonathan was when all these happened though.

Rip Takuto. What Meroko feared from ep 1 has finally happened, go figure. I had the impression Mitsuki's dad was the lead singer.

Wait, Shinigami aren't supposed to interfere with the natural process of life, right? People are fated to die on a specific day, but I guess random factors can happen to cause people to die earlier. However, Izumi could have invertedly killed Mitsuki's grandmother had he not led Mitsuki to commit suicide. Between Takuto and Meroko's meddling with Mitsuki's affairs and Izumi doing apparently whatever he wants, Shinigami seem to get away with a lot.

they barely made it clear who the dad even was in the band
Sonic X is basically an isekai
