----------------------------------------
Not bad for the OP song. I'm guessing there's some foreshadowing from it with some minor parts. Noel's a funny girl so far, a bit clumsy but whatever.

It looks like there's already some drama and possibly misunderstanding too. Noel's curiosity might of gotten her a bit more than she can chew on. Well, I'm expecting some feels trip. Not too into it yet though but I think it's on the right track.

Some of the girls look like the ones from NagiAsu.
The art and colors are great.

At the begining I thought it was going to be something similar to AnoHana, still there's something surrounding Nonoka's mother, she's probably dead.

Well, the episode was a little slow, but it looks like everythings already resolved between Nonoka and Noel. But the drama with the others seems to be the cliché one... let's see how it works.

The OP and ED are good.

First few minutes and I already don't feel like watching it. Too cutesy character design and girl too stupid to open the damn door. And then Noel. Yup, that's far enough.

Oh. Nonoka moved to Tokyo with her parents without informing all of her friends and the worst is she didn't say Goodbye to Noel. Damn she really waited too long!
And case when she get back she forgotten everyone of her friends. Good thing Noel was patient enough to be with her and make Nonoka remember her.

So I might watch this all the way/till the end because that "saucer in the sky" thing made me interest with this. I wish this won't have too much moeness anime.

Oh goody, autistic moeblobs, just what I was missing.

So going back to town, Nonoka, the perfect waifu has to restore her friendship with the ones she had to leave. Noel being the embodiment of it along with the damn saucer to make wishes come true which it will once they're together.

Ofc if someone doesn't die that is, or Noel disappears because someone overreacted to Nonoka's efforts to restore her friendships.

Noel can go away, what I'm interested in are the upset headphone gal and the boy, they seem the most reasonable, forget the Hachikuji wannabe.

Seems interesting so far.

Something about this is giving me ominous vibes about Noel; I'm pretty sure she and that sky-disc thing are linked in some way, but I also get the feeling that there's something off about Noel. In the flashbacks she looked too "radiant", almost like she was glowing. It didn't fit with Nonoka's appearance in the flashbacks.

I hope she isn't like Menma from Anohana.

An interesting start, though the episode seemed a bit all over the place. Will keep up with this and see where it goes. (If there's decent enough drama, chances are I'll end up liking it.)

What we got of the soundtrack so far was outstanding.

I'm definitely getting some strong Kanon & AnoHana vibes off this series, and that's no bad thing since I enjoyed both of those. I can see the plot twists potentially going in four or five different directions, and that plus the mystery of the disc has me curious enough to keep watching.

Looks like this Studio 3Hz that's producing this series is brand new, too. I can't find any other production credits for them.

Nonoka having been in the city when she was younger! Making a wish that brought Noel and that disc!
Noel trying to clean the house. Nonoka thinking Noel broke the picture frame but glad they made up at the end! Also remembering Noel and their promise at the observatory!

The girl with the headset asking why Nonoka came back now. That tension already!
This reminds me a little about Natsuiro Kiseki, only with the wish aspect though.

Glassip Loli version? I wish it's not -_-

PLEASE STAY ATTRACTIVE, NONOKA XD But yeah I was reminded of Glasslip too because the character designs look pretty similar, especially Nonoka's father who looked similar to Tohko's father. And of course, the beautiful sceneries and visuals.

In any case, one thing that sets this apart from Glasslip is that the show already clears up a lot of things. All we really need to know as of now is what the giant saucer is, who Noel is, and what sort of "wish" Nonoka and friends wished upon when they were young.

Pretty good episode except for the cliche moment when Nonoka gets mad at Noel for the broken frame. I don't see myself continuing this series, but it wasn't too bad.

Super cute OP song. This show gave me a slight Non Non Biyori and Galilei Donna feeling, it may be the somewhat similar background setting probably, which is stunning by the way. Nonoka acted kind of arrogant towards Noel, I know she thought that Noel broke her mother's picture but a photo's frame can be replaced, right? Hell, and it was her father who did it for accident. I'm glad she apologised. Whatever, it's clear that something happened in the past and for some reason Nonoka barely remember about that. It looks like she doesn't even remember her old friends. I'm loving Noel, so cute! I hope she's nothing like Menma from AnoHana.

It's okay. Kinda interesting.

“Are there some unseen roles that we have unknowingly set ourselves into, dictating the rules of engagement whenever we see each other, inevitably leading to us hurting each other?”

This gave off a Kanon-esque vibe to me. Main character comes back after a long absence and has to deal with the drama of all the other characters they left behind...plus the added drama of having a(I'm assuming) dead mother. I wonder how the magic of "granting wishes" will play a role in it though.

This show was created by Naoki Hisaya, who wrote the original Kanon visual novel when he worked for Key, so some common themes are bound to show up, although I sincerely hope that this one does enough things differently to stand on its own merits and not just end up being a watered-down Kanon clone/remake. That's really the only thing that I'm worried about with it.

Of course, anyone who's seen Kanon knows the role that wishes played in that story...so again, hopefully however it plays out in this show will be a bit different.

Very nice character design. My favorites are the banner girl and the headphone girl. :3

A bit vague for a 1st episode, but it seems like the girls tried some sort of magical ritual long ago which didn't work at that time.
Nonoka's return probably reactivated that celestial circle.

Good start. Hopefully, the plot will not be too confusing.
