amazing episode!

lol Naoi asking Hinata to become a toilet paper XD

really love how Naoi improvising during the meeting XD

tbh when Otonashi called out Kaneda's name, she already knew it was all an act :P

the battle was good, but needed more action :P

Takematsu became a NPC huh? as suspected

ehh it's kinda known she wasn't really a angel in the first place.

really like her nickname Yurippe :P

and wow the computer repairman is the same voice actor as King Bradley(Shibata, Hidekatsu) from Fullmetal Alchemist :P

the guild again is stealing some stuff!

wow last two episodes T__T

i do wonder if everyone is just gonna disappear just like that.

they definitely need more episodes to see each other's past.

Yui's out of the OP, sadly. Early ED, which was pretty sad.

Kanade's wings are just beyond awesome!

Dem shadows. Noo, they took over Takamatsu!

Hinata and Naoi are trying to help Otonashi. I still think Naoi's gay, but he is awesome.
Yuri finds out about this and gives the SSS a choice.
Lol, Otonashi and friends just found out Kanade's not an angel.

Yuri leaves and enters the Guild. I wonder who or what is there.
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

Those shadows...
By the way, I love Angel's wings. <3
I felt so awful to Takamatsu though... He became an NPC.
Dat cliffhanger in the ending... guild again...
I wonder who the culprit is.

I think that maybe someone in the group fear to be erased and to escape that fate, he want everyone to become an NPC. I dunno, this show is getting weird, I hope the last isn't about these shadow...

Kanade's wings... N'uf said.
And to be honest, I really wasn't look forward to this episode from the after credit cliffhanger from the last episode. I figured it was going to be a "oh, new enemy appears, we must fight to overcome it, with someone dying", and sadly that kind of happened. I have a guess on who reprogramming the NPCs (since they asked to delete Kanade's Sonic Blade, had the chance to look through Kanade's manual, and seems to be the only one good with computers with very little knowledge of the character (other then wanting a nick name)), and I'm hoping Angel Beats doesn't go into that direction were it becomes predictable.

Wow, this episode was actually good. I love that Yurippe not only didn't disappoint me when she uncovered Otonashi, but that she went evn further, deducing the truth behind the Kages.

The revelation that Hinata was the first Warfront member together with Yurippe was really unexpected and great.



If I wam to think on who may the culprit be, I'd bet on the Vice President. Yeah, he may have become a cool guy and all, but if the bad guys isn't someone who we don't know, then Naoi is the only one I can think of that has the appropriate skills in programming.

But then again, he was the first one to be attacked by a Kage.

But then again he may have just cloned himself.

The fight scene was awesome. I know I keep mentioning TK, but I loved his part. Yuri seemed pretty awesome herself. I don't think I need to mention Kanade's wings.

Man... I feel bad for Takamatsu. That's a fate worse than death. He had to have a screwy life like the rest of them, too. Now it won't ever be resolved. ._.

The plot is kind of all over the place. I'm thinking this show would have greatly benefited from a 26 episode run rather than a 13 episode run, but there's not much you can do about it. It's been a few years since this aired, so I'm guessing there won't be a sequel. (That would be a nice surprise, though.)

I hope this is resolved well. Props to Yuri for investigating this and still giving everyone the option to move on.

Lots of cool visual stuff in this- the shadows, Kanade's wings (!), and that whole fight was really awesome ^-^

but Oh no only two more eps and I'm not going to be satisfied if I don't get everyone's sad past!

Naoi thumbs-up... what an idiot.

After watching this 3 times now... I think I get why the shadows are there.

Kanade does look good with those wings. Hinata really didn't know she wasn't really an angel... all this time?

I love how Kanade's wings are so huge, even though they were only decorations. It's like she was trying to make them realistic. It would take an enormous wingspan to lift a human.

I'm looking forward to and dreading these last two episodes.

So shadows will turn them into NPC's. Now it's time for everyone to resolve their demons to move on which is seen in this episode.

The climax is fast approaching as everyone resolves to leave the world.

Interesting episode. shadows turning them in to NPC's and Yuri wants Otonashi to help everyone leave.

The computers being stolen and taken down a ladder to the guild D:

Kanade's angel wings are spectacular even if she is really only human like the rest.

Why don't the others program themselves to have the weapons and stuff she has, that'd be pretty obvious.

Definitely feel the final story arc has begun. Not sure who or why the shadow things are suddenly starting up. Perhaps Takeyama got tired of everyone ignoring his self-appointed nickname and not giving him the respect he deserves? lol After all, he is the hacker character. :P -- 4/5

OHHHH, Tenshi really did get some wings OMG *.*
The Shadow thing was interesting, wonder what's gonna happen next.
So, Yuri knew about what Otonashi was doing all along uh? And now everybody knows. Wonder how that will play out in the next episodes. Hope they can "save" everybody.
Oh, and in the end Tenshi really is a "player" like all of them. She really is special. She figured it out before all of them and wanted to help them. Dang. I wana know her story and her death. Now for that I CAN'T WAIT.

I mean, it has a lot of funny moments like Naoi stuffs... but I don't get how this anime is #5 in popularity. For feels, I personally think AnoHana, Steins;Gate, Madoka, etc feels more sad.

The story itself has too many characters that almost none of them got spotlight and this will end in 2 more episodes. I don't see how it can be that good when they've introduced the backstory to around 4-5 characters from that big cast and we know nothing about Kanade thus far. So far it felt like compiling all sad scenes into one anime, which have been done by a lot of anime with tragic psychological genre. I hope I'd be proven wrong in 2 more episodes, otherwise this seems to be a fun forgetable anime.

The existence of the 'shadows' explains why there are many NPCs here. 2000 young human souls have stayed far too long in this world.

So Yuri knew the whole plan all along. Well, that makes it easier if Yuzuru were to explain everything about his plans, which he did.

So now Kanade is finally fully accepted. Happy to finally see her being classified as an ally by other SSS members!

TK killing the shadow was awesome!

But I'm a bit cheesed off at the fact that somehow a bunch of people know what Otonashi was trying to do. How were they supposed to figure that one out???

Overall weak episode.
Forget everything we had before and come up with a new one.


This is Angel Beats.

Disregard past plot points, introduce new one.

this is the only way to describe angel beats

w/e at least this shadow shit is somewhat interesting. although why is she doing everything by herself that is incredibly stupid lmao

okay that's what i thought and that could have been pretty interesting but apparently some hacker is doing it so this is "unnatural". lol that actually could have been such a neat explanation though

I have completely forgotten how most of them actually get out of all this. Cant remember if they just have a montage or gloss over most of the side characters. Theres only two episodes left so they definitely cant do what they did with Yui and the other girl.

Kanade with her wings look so nice. Very angelic.

So our perfect being, the living saint Otonashi helps one person and now we are back to fighting a new enemy. I suppose fighting a sudden villain is easier to write than trying to come up with sad backstories and helping the whole group pass on. Or maybe after defeating this new foe they will all spontaneously willingly find peace with no help at all. Be very convenient.

The battle with shadows was so cliché and just eh.

Takamatsu got turned into a NPC. F.

That Kanade head pat was so cute. ( ๑>ᴗ<๑ )
She deserves all the head pats in the world :D


Decent episode overall, 4/5.

Excited for next episode.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
