Mainly a recap of the main series.

There's actually quite a good amount of emotions stuffed into the recap episode with meaningful narratives from Rei's point of view. It managed to reflect events up to episodes 11 so that's almost half of the show so far. Ah I still enjoy listening to the opening song every time.

Pretty average for a recap imo. Guess this sums up the whole first cour?

Oh! I don't usually see recap episodes have their own page.
Never mind, there's quite a lot.

Christ, what are the points of recaps, I don't really think anybody enjoys watching them. Just there to fill in a gap for production and the costs. Another run of the mill recap imo.

Seems like a lot of studios are having a tough time with costs these days. Even Shaft is not above this.

I think the recap captures the flow of the show better even the individual episodes are much better

The recap for 91 Days was actually really useful because I was having trouble following everything. This one, however, is pointless for me to watch.

If I remember correctly from the manga the next episode is kinda of a start of a new arc that will probably last till the end of the season.

It was actually a rather enjoyable recap. The music in this series is just so nice to listen to. And the New Years portion was nice to watch closer to New Years.

This was a pretty decent recap episode in my opinion. Not anything special as I... can actually follow this show compared to something like 91 Days. Yet I feel this was pulled off better than the prior for some reason.

6/10. Pointless recap but semi-entertaining for what it is anyway. Probably would've scored a 5/10 if not for the fact that I thought the quicker pacing in the Kyokuo/Rei scene (the one where her explaining Yasui's situations and Rei internally chides himself for wanting to listen to her) actually made the scene more effective.

For a recap of this size, the first 11 episodes were pretty decently recapped or at least the main perspective's of Rei's life's journey. Mostly are from the latter episodes, but still a good basis for everything.

Obviously it felt a bit rushed, but can't expect much from 11 episodes being merged to a single one! Either way a pretty decent recap.

I watched the first 11 episodes spread out over about 5 months so this episode was really awesome for me to remember everything!
