EP10
So, I wonder if he'll remember to help Tomori's brother too... or if that lead singer even comes with him now.

He really shouldn't jump around too much in time. His brother seemed to be of the intellectual type, Yuu is of the lazy, cheating, and reckless type. I guess the brother was somewhat reckless as well, but I also think he knew what he was doing and made progress along the way, even if little by little. I certainly wouldn't count on Yuu being able to do that. He either succeeds fully or fails terribly. Consider the whole truck accident stunt he pulled off only to win the favour of a girl immediately, instead of doing it more normally (even if cheating a little). A hundred things could have gone tragically wrong, leading to death. You really wouldn't want that kind of a guy to tamper with the timeline too much, and they would have to to save Tomori's brother all those years ago.
Besides, he would eventually go blind and then that would be it. They would be much better off sticking to this timeline with the motivational little sister alive again.
Edit: Right, the order was the other way around. A good point, Krayz.
If Yuu was to save Tomori's brother, he'd have to jump to a time before even his own blind brother jumped (because the brother was too late to save Tomori's). If that was to happen (jump before his brother arrived from the future).. would his brother still arrive from the future?
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
He is talking about the hospital saving scene.
Peace.
EP11
wow... they were totally "safe" all the time.... right?
No wonder they were able to survive with a genius brother like him leading the organisation... /irony
Nice planning.
It took him enough tries to go blind. He is stupid.
Peace.
This one has been slowly, steadily, downhill since episode one with some highlights here and there.
I actually loved this until the X-Men revelation. There's been too little Tomori and Yuu interaction in the past few episodes. The only thing I liked about the most recent episode was Tomoriwaki, yes, even if she is strung up and tortured.
If I were the brother, I'd have sacrificed the driver guy's family. The explanation about the gang knowing that they jumped back in time was bogus anyway, but even if they could somehow "sense" that such a thing happened, the only casualty would be some unnamed family.
Now one of the most important power users they have is gone. Friggin dumbass.
Peace.
I'm more amazed about the fact that a small group was able to outplay them like the children they are.
What exactly is protecting them? Their whole "organisation" was completely useless here.
If a goverment wants some powerusers (for whatever awkward military reasons), they'll go in and grab them just like that. Pretty easy to find them now, since they are all gathered in one place and they have all the necessary data saved somewhere.
I was okay with seeing MC being useless here, because they sent him in there without a backup, or plan in general.
This is a joke. They were totally not up to the challenge, really makes me wonder how they managed to survive thus far.

After seeing the final episode, the only thing that will likely stick with me is how the music that played during the rehab montage sounded like it came from the PixelJunk Monsters games.
I'll give it credit for trying to tie up loose ends, though.
I really liked the final episode because of the confession. That was an excellent scene, and Tomori is awesome.
Peace.
There's still one more episode, right?
The whole confrontation in the warehouse was really ridiculous. Those 2 badguys had no backup? Their only plan was some little girl running out and ninja'ing him? He could have used any number of powers to kill them instantly.
The MC is also pretty stupid for not plundering all of the powers before time leaping.
The hospital scene was pretty weird with no doctors or nurses anywhere. Like, you're really gonna do PT alone in a dark room with your bum leg?
Hope he remembers to help Tomori's brother...
Overall, I've been pretty disappointed with this show. I feel like the tone is all over the place, and it just makes me laugh when they try to be serious.
Episode 13 Horrible Subs
Last one guys!
This story would've been 100x better as a visual novel. That way, all the abrupt things wouldn't have felt so abrupt.
That said, I still loved this. I just wish the last 5 minutes got an entire episode. Yuu needed to be rewarded for his achievement. A kiss, a hug, something more than a hand rub.
Tears.
Peace.
This was not a good show...
As for EP13: Don't know whether it was a translation error or not, but he clearly said "I got a power that makes it so that I don't need sleep"
And during the next minutes we saw him being tired.
*shrug* Don't know what kind of power makes you say you can skip sleep but does basically nothing (you still feel tired and your muscles can't relax?) It didn't even allow him to stay sane.

Hmm, I see where you're coming from. It's almost like he got a power that meant he couldn't sleep. I guess there's simply a limit to it or whatever.Originally Posted by Krayz33
The idea for this show isn't bad. It just wasn't executed in a way that made me care particularly much. It was interesting enough to pass time with, but I can't recommend it.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Let me try this again... My last statement still pretty much represents how this show felt for me. Actually, the previous episode served as a much better final episode to me. Imagining him trying to plunder all of the abilities was more entertaining than all of the contrivances that came with seeing him do it in a single episode. This did actually feel like a rushed adaptation of a visual novel... so much that I figured one already existed.
Seriously disappointed with this show. Felt like a massive waste of the art talent.
... art talent?
I've noticed that many recent "Maeda Jun" shows that use the Key visual style have a washed out colour palate, and I don't like that particularly much.

I'm usually pretty happy with PA Works when it comes to the animation. I think they do a pretty decent, consistent job.
