| I highly recommend to watch Erased in English dub. The English-Dub is GREAT and it can help you get through the anime in its slice of life moments, and it can also help you get through the anime in some episodes that are very slow-paced. Erased does a great job in setting the atmosphere, mainly with its spooky/intense background music. Im not gonna get into how the time-travel-reset thing works; it is what it is. Enjoyable anime, and I can see why it is considered one of MAL's users favorites. I would have just lowered it to 10-episodes, to speed up its pacing, because the final 3-4 episodes were very slow. |

| It is a shame that Kayo didn't end up with Satoru. If she was gonna come back and be with anyone, I was definitely not expecting it to be Hiro. But hey, that's life; the result of changing the future, creating a life where only he is missing (for 15 years). Besides, Airi is best girl. |
 |
| Wasn't a big fan of the reveal, but overall I liked it and would recommend it to others. |
| Bro if Airi isn't in the ending, I was prepared to write a bible worth of hate comments. |
| Well I'll be honest the show was awesome especially the first half. It was really good. I didn't really like the ending tho. I kinda felt that it was rushed here and there. And also because Kayo and Satoru didn't end up together. As the episodes went by, they were getting pretty close and then bam!!! A 15 year time skip all of a sudden and everything's changed. Sigh. Well it is what it is I guess? Glad that he at least ended up with Airi. 7/10 for me :( |
dolly94 said: I also was kind of disappointed on how they cut almost all of Airi's scenes. I wonder why they did this... Maybe to make the viewer wonder what had become of her. Maybe in the altered timeline she would have died in a car crash, as some bittersweet ending. I do know that due to Airi missing, it kept me watching attentively till the very last second, because she was missing. So maybe it's not a 1:1 adaptation of the manga, but from story-telling point of view, it was probably the smartest choice they could have made, when knowing the series would only be allowed to span 12 episodes. |
| The ending could have been better but I don't care. This is a masterpiece. |
| Great ending, for a great show. |
| If I were Yashiro's position, I'd probably jump anyway with how screwed I'd be. Ending was just okay imo, but won't deny how intense the ride was. The reunion with Airi was a sweet final note too. |
| What a wonderful ending. The teacher was well connected with Satoru, I didn't think he would do such a thing. at the end my eyes filled with tears 😭. |
 |
| 1. Satoru going into the coma for 15 years is the perfect way of doing this, he traded his time for the time of his friends, who got to live fulfilling lives because of his sacrifice! 2. ik some people like Airi, but she's 17 years old, and mc is 29, which is kind of weird. Barring the age gap, I don't really see anything in their relationship. I see them more like good friends when he had no one, which is meaningful for him. So I'm glad they met again, but I personally can't see them getting together. 3. The graffiti on the wall at the end says Re:Re which is the name of the opening song! 4. Since Satoru foiled the teacher's plans, did he ever actually murder kids? Was this something that he had been doing, or were the kids he saved the beginning of his efforts? I wonder if manga readers know. 5. Why butterfly at the end? Usually that signifies something bad is about to happen. I'm not sure if that applies, or if the butterfly is representing fate of meeting Airi again. The show left me with a few questions, but generally, it was good. Manga readers say it's rushed, but for someone who is fresh going into it, the show is interesting. I wish they had made the villain a little less obvious and a little more evil. That's just me, though. good watch! |
 |
| Below average at best, the resolution at the end falling through a building and and landing in a safe zone was laughable (NGE levels of mental gymnastics), 3/10. |
| If this show tried to make a detective fiction it was not that good. Only showing one suspect and it actually was him was underwhelming. Also that the evil guy had that boring of a motive does not impress me at all. Overall it was not a bad show because the pacing was fast and it stayed on course but I expected more from the culprit. |
| He finally got caught! That's a good ending |
 |
| Good show. I laughed heartily at the pathetic comments in these threads. If you want to watch a kdrama that has a similar vibe, check out 'Signal'. |
"I'm starting to think mal is run by Xinil generating electricity on a bicycle." - idklol |
| Ok so i was off by a little bit.The predator got enamoured by the hunted and in time the stimulus is what he was living for .BUT that's a ducking big stretch for the mc and his crew to gamble all their odds upon.The guy was a perfectionist in his serial killing business.Betting on him doing a 180 at the end was risky business. It was ok i guess.For the quality of the show preceding the ending i would have prefered a conclusion where the chess pieces fall into their places kind of thing . Gets a 8/10 from me |
