| You have to put the @ next to the name, which you have to write out exactly for me to get the message notification. Anyway, I understand all that. You're confusing messages and I was specifically talking about the scene between Airi and Satoru when the plane is going down the river. But I will say the parallel with Yuuki was already drawn before - this is a more direct example to drive home the parallel that isn't actually necessary since it was already done subtler without having Satoru experience the same situation Yuuki went through in the park. Thinking it's "dumb" (which I didn't say and I also praised someone else' explanation behind it that was just as elaborate as yours - you must be mistaking me calling the arguing dumb for that) has nothing to do with understanding why it was there, given the show holds your hand and spells it out for you. I mean, consider the shot of Jesus and his twelve disciples that were shown during episode 5. It foreshadowing the manager's betrayal a minute before it's revealed doesn't make it a less clumsy and a more necessary element that couldn't be replaced with something less obvious to potentially tip off the audience to his character. |

Gigue said: The only person who can get Satoru out of this disaster is Phoenix Wright. Seriously though he needs to lawyer the fuck up or else he is screwed. You know this is exactly what I thought when Satoru got arrested. I just thought if this guy needed a lawyer at any time, it would be Phoenix Wright - get him declared innocent and find the culprit at the same time XD. Anyway great episode looking forward to more. |
| Holy Shit DAT ending...that was very thrilling. obviously he go into the past again after that ending. whenever he went into the past, a butterfly always appeared before it happened. so i guess he really go into the past, but seriously, that culprit.... after watching this episode, i can guess who is the culprit now and one more thing, i think someone other than Satoru has this "Revival" ability... |

Kaioshin_Sama said: KorNk said: Well, this is probably true, because the show is not as fast-paced as the majority of voters might think. Still, it's really good and original imo^^ IMO not really all that original or out there at all. It's the typical sort of teen oriented melodrama you get out of A-1 Pictures all the time (albeit with decent characters so far) only with a mystery twist that's IMO barely a mystery at this point. I'd go so far as to call it kind of bread and butter really. They just got done doing two other teen oriented melodramas even within the past year and one was even farmed out to P.A Works in Charlotte. Not as uncommon as people think. When I think kind of original or off the beaten path this season it'd be Shouwa Genroku Rakugo. After almost 2 decades of watching anime I can safely say I've never seen a show about that subject matter before, but I've certainly seen stories about time travel and save the poor potentially dying girls loads of times even within the last decade. Well, surely it's not exactly new to have a girl died and time travel combined (This anime kinda resembles Steins;Gate for me)... Actually, I won't argue really^^ I feel like you watched waaay more anime than I did, so you'd probably judge it better... I'd give Shouwa Genroku Rakugo a go too probably :D A-list_96 said: KorNk said: Well, this is probably true, because the show is not as fast-paced as the majority of voters might think. Still, it's really good and original imo^^ True, i do find the pacing to be really inconsistent. Yeah... sorry, but I can't agree with you. I actually really like this dynamic pacing (in a sense that it flows from fast to slow and vice versa). Moreover, I'd prefer it to be even slower at times (like in manga). |
 |
| I guess Satoru will be taking another trip back in time. I'm glad Airi managed to survive, at least for now. |
| Poor Yuuki. The feeling when you like big boobs but people framed you as a pedo... |
| It's so frustrating watching the perpetrator get away with murder and as the pieces come together as the story unfold he's getting close but still so far away. I really want this guy to burn. |
 |
| Airi LIVES! Manager Comes in to save the day, Although i would've like to have seen him appear providing feedback on what he just witnessed in the fire (aka seeing satoru risk his life to save Airi) idk something like him talking with Airi for a brief moment saying like "oh maybe your right about him, but I dont know, i mean you did literally knock some sense into me"(put a slight nod to his punch maybe?). i guess you could say that was acknowledged during the fire but eh. Odd though, Despite meeting up with the Old Reporter, Airi Pulling through, and Satoru Getting Caught...i still feel like not all that much happened, And the Cliffhanger made it feel like it was in the middle of the episode. i mean granted you could say "oh you enjoyed it so much it went by in a flash"....idk it felt like something was missing from this episode. |
| Argue? Nah Too lazy For That... Are You Ready!~Gulcasa |
FishermansFriend said: Wait. When Satoru is thinking back at the suspects(17.50 in)why are there 6 names all of a sudden. Scratch that thought. Why is his MOTHER on the list now? They show two lists, the first is a 5 names list and the second I don't remember how many names were on, but was the first list the police made. The changing of the lists had something to do with Satoru's friend whom looked like a girl... |

I felt the same but I get the feeling this episode is one of those calm before the storm moments. Gears are going to start spinning faster next episode. |
| YES. Satoru gets another chance at Revival?? I wonder where he'll end up... Thank god he gets another chance. He would have been screwed if he didn't. I wish I paid attention to people's eyes more >.< ugh... Anyway, I cannot WAIT for the next episode >w< like seriously~  |

| Has anyone seen the Live Action preview? It sure is interesting but I recommend you don't watch it as yet. It has what I would determine a major spoiler not only for the anime but also for the manga as well. But with actually being said, I really I'm looking forward to watching that Live Action. |
| Anyone know the manager's name yet? lol Good episode. |
   I envy your delusion; I wish I could live in it  |
| people be like "guys shows not over so don't get so happy happy" b**** I'll get happy if I want to. People be like "mangas better" to people that say that just suck my d*** cause it's in the forum of an anime. |

| How long until season 3 of Spice and Wolf? The World May Never Know. |
| This anime uses environmental and audio effects like none other I've ever seen. You realize the true intent and meaning of a scene through the audio alone. Some of these scenes would never, ever have hit as hard if not for these special effects, having no equal that I've ever seen and might ever see again. And through this, how hard they hit. Even the most emotionally charged moments of the best anime I've seen to date pale in comparison to the slowest moments of this one. Each scene adds a piece to the puzzle, almost every piece being infinitely important, and the biggest moments use each and every piece ever conceived up to that point to hit its mark with the most impact and precision you can possibly imagine. The writers knew what they were doing, and pulled no punches in any way. What a piece of work. |

Hijazi said: Hahahaha, that gave me a good laugh. :D And Yes, That ending made the episode for me. The killer's apparent triumph smile [that he has won] and the glimps of hope for Satoru/us in the form of revival with the butterfly instigating it. Just great. Yep, the killer was so confident, but no, not today bro xD Dude next episode will be amazing (i keep saying this since episode 1 haha) |

Johndahon94 said: It was all over so quickly, this show is soo good. Yep, I felt the same, unfortunately we're gonna have to wait an entire week to watch another episode of this amazing story, again. Xenocrisi said: Are cliffhangers a new trend? Wait, wut? Did I just read it properly? Dude, it has been used for longer than the age of most of the people on this website. Cliffhangers were always a thing... ON THE EPISODE NOW:----------------------------- I had an impression that I knew that smile from somewhere... I'm convicted it is the teacher. He dresses exactly like him, his face format seems the same, hair seems the same, it's a male and I somehow associated that smile of him with the teacher. The only thing is that the teacher didn't use glasses (if I recall correctly), which makes my statement go through a different path... but guess what, glasses are trendy now, they weren't back then in the twentieth century or he could have aged or produced optical problems which is actually very common. We still had the reporter that was friends with his mother but I don't think so, he's too friendly and actually tried to help him out. So the only one left is the teacher, it must be the teacher, unless it is someone that didn't make an appearance yet but that wouldn't make sense because Fujinuma and his mother actually recognized that person, so it should be someone we've seen already. Remember that there was also a 5 seconds scene that showed him talking with Kayo's mom in his office from a long distance. Well, he didn't use a hat in the past either but anyways... anyone can use hats... Like I said, it all points to the teacher, the only downside of my theory are the glasses, which I already tried to cover up. Let's see what happens.

| Check out what I caught in the OP |
| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
There's also the part with his silhouette, his mom, airi and kayo and then you see that the silhouette is actually the killer, so him from a different timeline or whatever is the killer, better have some cool execution for that |
| Probably one the best shows I've seen airing in a LONG time. Holy shit I've never been this hyped for a show in ages. Absolutely love this episode. Damn that cliffhanger tho. |
| *insert cringey anime reference here* |
| "Not trusting my husband was the biggest mistake of my life and I can't repent enough for that, which is why I won't let my darling daughter suffer the same fate, and instead encourage her to trust everyone around her and to go out of her way to assist them when they're in trouble, even if they're someone I only know about through the emotional ramblings of my daughter in their favour and are a murder suspect to boot. Heck, this guy she's so bent upon risking her life on might turn out to be my future son-in-law for all I know, what with people both within and outside the verse shipping them. So yeah, you hereby have my wholehearted permission to leave the hospital and have a rendezvous with him. I'll take care of things here. May the force be with you." Yeah, right. |

His name is Tenchou. It's been said several times. |

They should really add him to the databases then, along with several other characters that aren't there and have had decent amounts of screen time. |

yiruma123 said: pablomc said: It's just me... or you guys also think that by the pace the will have a different end than the manga... maybe before "that" happens They're just gonna cut a lot from the manga. Yeah, they probably won't, but it's not a big deal really, it didn't add much to the story anyways. But pacing is really going to pick up from here, 4 chs next week |

Honestly, they should add the iffy-reporter, Kayo's shit-mom, her shit-mom's fag-boyfriend, the-girl-who-put-stuff-on-other-people's-bag/pocket-unless-they-can't, the-boy-who-lost-in-skating, Airi's sad mom, the-two-sorry-excuses-for-detectives and Shiratori's dad in the database. The lack of substantial characters in the anime is starting to question the depth of the anime as a mystery anime. |

| This Anime feels like it is on a whole different level 10/10 for sure But besides that I really don't think the Manager has something to do with it, I think that is what they want us to think. Like if we look back at the place where Satoru and has Mother were at the parkingspot when they went for groceries or something we saw the 'potential killer' as we could call it? And he didn't look anyting like the Manager. Can't wait for the next episode Let me know what you guys think :D |
RyugamiKuroryu said: Ok, I thought that was Kayo's stepfather too, but now that you say, it really isn't him ._. Not sure if it's the teacher, though, but does looks so. Wich reminds me of a scene that's not been explained yet. I think it was in the 2nd or 3rd episode, after Satoru speak with the teacher. In the end of that episode, the teacher appears talking with someone who seems to be Kayo's mother at school, but then the episode ends without showing what they were talking about. He was speaking about the abuses or was it about something else? At the end of episode 3, the theacher is likely talking to Satoru's classmate, Kenya.  Anyway, the butterfly (effect) in the end is indicating another revival? Oh man, we're probably going to have another trip to the past |

| Why does this show make the police look like a bunch of idiots? -_- They were fooled many times in one episode (Airi getting out of her room and having her mother stay as her replacement, and that guy sneaking in pretending to be going to the toilet). Also there isn't enough proof that Satoru killed his mom and set the fire, and he has no motive to do so! did they just decide that he's the murderer without investigating?! |

| well...im glad airi got more screentime because she's the cutest character in these series tbh also betting that the manager is the killer. like everyone's saying it's the teacher but idk man,he seems too chill edit: damn,just mixed up the manager with the other guy lol nvm |

| Really not a fan of everyone being a red herring, it just seems a really lazy way to create mystery, and the red eyes... totally lacks subtlety. I liked it apart from that, though it's not quite as good as the first 4 episodes. |
