I guess we'll have to assume that she's wearing black underwear.


I hope Hakaze will be able to break free and join up with the duo on the next ep.

I was thinking that too cause spats are not like that in length.

Well at least we know she is daring if she wears the black color.

Intense episode especially considering most of it was talking about logic and Yoshino's hypothesis even i the whole thing was a simple act to manipulated the people around him.

I'm taking a random guess here and you bastards that are very obviously using the spoiler tags on the character pages better not confirm this or deny it.

I think if aika is still alive which is looking likely, she may end up being the main villain/antagonist/anti hero.

Samon is very obviously no the main villain here is what leads me to this theory and something about aika seemed off like she was planning everything

Wow, wow, wow.

This is the first time I've come across a brilliant anime where words do speak louder than action. I've never expect Yoshino plans to point out vague theories (which is what I once thought to be used to prove that she is still alive and there's no time shift) just to make Samon fall into his trap.

I think the fact they mentioned he wants to make this a tragedy where everyone lives is pretty much the huge spoiler that, thats not going to happen.

shiiiit!!! I couldn't wait any longer after watching this episode so I went running into the manga and I'm like shiiiiit ...I just, I'm not buying it ....is just too dam good... How did they .... DO IT .. how can it be possible that everything makes sense like that... I'm not even sure what kind of ending I want... for the first time... everything is just too good.. anything could happen..I kind of like feel bad for all of the characters so---- but the way the put all the pieces together is just... it blowed my mind.
What will happen next?! I'm dying to know, but at the same time.. I'm not so sure if I want to know.
ugh my head is a mess right now. good luck to the ones who wants to read the manga.. and good luck to those that who will be waiting 7 days for an episode while your head explodes with doubts.

I've been thinking exactly the same. He looked like he was going to have a stroke the whole episode. He could at least try to keep his countenance lol.
Anyway, pretty good episode, even though it had a bit too much of talking.

Yoshino is just brilliant, although this episode wasn't much of an action episode it was still really good because the dialogue was just really well done.
Samon's @!%^ every time Yoshino said something was really funny yet still serious enough to not ruin the mood.

3 episodes of nothing but Dialogue, with a fourth on the way it would seem.
And its freaking brilliant.
This show needs to stop blowing my mind.


^ this! omg
and to think how this show was only called "pretentious" in the beginning xD
i love what they do with the dialogues, mind fight that had me on the edge more than any other action scene.
Music during the dialogue was brilliant (as always) but because it gave some more dimension and thrill to everything that was said. And it made me think this is really a nice shakespearian anime adaptation... i mean all that psychological/emotional load carried by it, all the twists of words.... very good example of how to build a whole plot only with dialogue. Which is what a PLAY actually is, isn't it? I mean how many times did you watch a show that didn't really "show" anything and still was developing ? LOL
Animation and SFX of the Evangeline fight scene was damn obsessive.

I still feel that this show is getting better with every episode. And I sooo so hope that it keept it up with this current standard and not throw in some shit stuff later on xD Because it's epic and I'm already thinking to turn it to favorites.

If you want action, you're watching the wrong show. I love these dialogue heavy episodes. The setting under which the dialogue takes place does not bother me in the slightest. It makes me think a lot-which many anime (eg. SAO *cough*) don't. The plot twists also impress me. Samon seems like an idiot but I don't think he's the final boss.

The manga for this show is targetted toward a shounen demographic, but I feel it should be a bit older (not quite seinen but close-heck it might be closer to shoujo than shounen tbh). Don't like it? Go watch Naruto then :P

If you were expecting a action show instead of clever dialogue that is your fault not the shows. I mean if you dont like writing that actually makes sense or is smart that doesnt rely on animation in fights to sell BD's and want pointless action you can always watch sword art online or some other drivel that lowers IQ's of all who watch

Also if you are going to use the its all in one spot thing, then you are wrong there seeing how thats just where yoshino and mahiro have been, these past 3 eps have been randomly shifting perspectives between every single character introduced

And now, if Hakaze is the killer of Aika, she win :

If Samon make Hakaze come back, to give Mahiro the killer, he'll lose
If Samon don't give Hakaze to Mahiro, Mahiro will shoot, and Samon will be forced to make Hakaze come back, and he'll lose

Logic is powerfull :p

Nicely done Yoshino :D
I was also expecting a mind-blowing theory explaining the time paradox. However, He ended up deceiving us all. I thought hilarious the way he toyed with Samon.
Mahiro knows him too well. He knows what Yoshino was aiming for, and he admitted falling for it - cause he did not completely joined Samon's side.

I can;t wait to see more!

Just going to say that Evangeline is pretty cool this episode especially with that personality, not to mention hot :p. Hell, she even uses a spear rather than a gun this time. I was hoping she would win against Natsumura but oh well..

I found the talk between Samon, Mashino, Yashino, and Hazake are bit dragged but overall, I enjoyed this episode. Oh, and Samon is more concerned and pissed as ever LOL.

It was great to see Hakaze act lively again and regain her confidence. Nice one Yoshino. And oh yeah, he even got Mahiro back on his side again, or well... for now I guess since they still have to find a way to travel through time.

Dat ass, I like these fanservice moments from Hakaze.

I loved this episode, I loved watching Samon get so annoyed, haha.

But I was thinking about it and I think I could guess who Aika's killer was...
What if Hakaze-san killed her? Think about it, without Aika-chan's death Mahiro wouldn't have any motivation to help Hakaze, and none of this would have happened. It's also true that the murderer was someone from the Kusaribe clan. Hakaze-san is stuck two years in the past, and Aika-chan was killed one year ago. Assuming she's saved from the island before a year passes, and she really is stuck in the past, it's very possible that she was the murderer.

I kind of get a bad vibe from him for some reason, him and a ressurected aika or even dead aika planning all that would happen are probably my 2 picks for possible main villain, im going more with him just cause he kind of gives off a vibe that he is more powerful than everyone else and has a plan of some sorts, I'm basing this all off crazy inferences here though and have no backing proof aside from him taking down that spear guy, also keep in mind i finsihed dangan ronpa not to long ago so my mind still is thinking outside of the box for the craziest theories cause thats just how unexpected things got in that game so im over thinking this most likley

I just know samon is not the villain

エアリエル! "Ariel is Prospero's eyes and ears throughout the play" The Tempest wiki.
Seems like Yoshino/Mahiro are playing Ariel, and Hakaze as Prospero. But Yoshino's a real schemer, very logical theory, but he inadvertently forces Samon to reveal time shift magic is real (goes against Genesis logic) and lift Hakaze out of despair which means she'll try to survive for 2 years at least.
Or as Ariel the Mermaid, she can try swimming out.
Just theories, but seeing the winds reverse with awesome bgm seem to suggest the past can alter the present.
Also nice Evangeline fight.
