THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I'm glad Orion came by again after that incident last time. Otherwise, its' nice to some of the other girls at work imo. Dat cake. Hopefully the series progresses a bit faster next time though.

Well, an okay episode for me. Dem memories and night exploration.

Female coworkers are kind, comparing to what happened at the end of last ep. Memory is coming back bit by bit, it seems, but too messy.

lol @ the shop owner's prediction being correct. Enjoyable trip they had it seems. Thought that long green hair guy has two faces. And that kiss! But why going back time?

lol @ what Orion said in the preview and showing that exact scene at the end credit.

From how the episode ended, they're probably going to do the other storylines..

Time went back to the 1st of August, so either it's the past or different timeline.

Going towards Shin's route!! Yay!!

Wow! I can't wait to see what happens next... it's really interesting that Kent doesn't remember going to the festival with the protagonist. Does that mean there are multiple timelines involved in the storyline? The flashback (or maybe it's also a scene from an alternate timeline?) with Shin was also pretty intense... and I want to learn more about the green-haired guy! So far I really like Sawa and Mine, their personalities make up for the protagonist being so soft-spoken, and Waka is such a cute manager. I hope Orion returns soon. ;_;

Question: What was the date in the beginning of the first episode?
Did she jump back in time or did she enter a parallel world?

Lol wat.

I agree with you guys about the parallel world thing. It's weird how Shin just upped and kissed her like that. He didn't seem like the type who would. Well... This is all just a guess. That Kent thing was interesting as well. Orion needs to shut the flip up. And Shin "killing" someone was probably just an exaggeration/metaphor or something.

I haven't watched the episode yet because there isn't a subbed version, but shouldn't the reason Orion can see her memories be because he is in her head? It makes sense especially since he seems to go everywhere she is and sees everything she does. Why is it stupid?

Well thanks to the time travel thingy you could actually see their different routes which are quite rare for a reverse harem and I think it will just last for 2 episodes so the other guys will be shown with their route

I guess the time traveling is actually a good thing in the perspective that you can see each route.And now that I think of it I glad about that,because even though Shin is my favorite I'm also interested in seeing Toma and Kent's routes.

However,the thing that worrys me about that is how Heroine and whichever guy route it is suppose to have and develop a deep and romantic relationship in the short amount of time each route lasts.
I know right :( i wonder how will the producers do such a tricky thing.....

I actually wasn't originally looking forward to this anime but now I can't wait for the next episode.

Everyone seems to not like how the heroine is have 'multiple timelines' but I like it and I feel like I'm just as confused as her. Usually we know something they don't or whatever but I think part of the fun is figuring out what is going on.

Well... that was random, though based on multiple posts, I can sorta tell what's going on... I think.

So many scenes in this episode felt unnecessary. The air hockey for example. Oh, and was I the only one who noticed the inn or whatever they were staying at had slot machines? A casino inn in the middle of the forest? Wat?

Ahahahaa. So I guess they're actually doing character routes? Since that hospital scene is pretty much the start of Shin's route. But wondering how will they fit it into couple of episodes if they're gonna do all the routes...
And my opinion about the Heroine? Sure, I do understand she has amnesia and shit, but she acts/reacts like a dead fish all the time.

i really like the op and ed. that's the first thing i noticed this time.

besides that i liked that episode.
even though i have to admit that i also have some troubles with the heroine. she's confused and i understand that, but her voice is so annoying. i wish she would speak normally when people are around her /sigh
but shin and toma are really attractive characters, wow.

excuse me, shin, but i think i'm also half asleep! /waiting hopefully

LOL. Though I went to his character page picture tab and it looks more like a piercing than a mole but idk.



About the show...I guess it's kind of interesting at parts but it's hard to enjoy when a you just know that brick wall has more personality than the main girl.


and the little fairy boy needs to stop pointing out every obvious thing that's happening.

Orion "Captain Obvious" Kid is annoying.

I guess the way to keep people (like me) watching this show is by not explaining anything and keep people wondering what's going on.
At least the girl has an excuse to be clueless, so maybe I'll be a little less annoyed about that.

You know what? This show has good ideas. It can go many ways with the romance arcs, and I bet we'll have something like a final route wrapping up all the previous events.

But we have a big problem: the execution, at least in this adaptation, is terrible. TERRIBLE.

First issue: Orion. Why does he need to narrate every single scene? We are not playing the VN, which format (I suppose) needs some narrative to complement the visuals. This is an anime, so it can show things instead of let Orion babble about them. That would make the pacing a lot better and even help to add some characterization.

That brings us to another problem: Heroine. She is stupidly fragile and have no free will at all. There was a scene when she tried to cover up she forgot the meeting about the trip and I really thought she would act more keenly discerning from that point on...
...But no, we get back to the stupid Orion's narrative at each minute. It's more like she can't think or take any decision by herself. I know I'll get into wish-fulfillment depreciating now but she is just a self-insert character to fangirls that dream of being kissed by pretty boys. (Edit: nothing against you if you like this kind of wish-fulfillment. But I can't see this as good storytelling. I didn't come here for this.)

The only interesting parts were the flashbacks with Shin and Kent. Also the alternative worlds setting can be well used. But this anime is full of flaws in both execution (narrative) and fundamental (characters concept) levels. What a waste.

4/10 (should be better than the first episode, but in the end Orion annoyed me too much.)

I'm curious. Is this an omnibus format? We'll have Shin first and then proceed to the rest? I'll prefer it that way, makes it more interesting than letting us an open ending like Arcana Famiglia (though i know they have different formats). Also I'm so happy there's some soundtrack, first episode was boring without it. Oh, and the seiyuus... i'm really pleased, i'll keep watching, for sure, though the story might not be my cup of tea.

We're never going to get anywhere if the Heroine doesn't stop fainting or falling! She's SO not the definition of a heroine in my book, but I'm really not watching the show for her. I'm much more interested in Ikki-san and Waka-san!

Can't for the life of me understand what those guys would see in her. Apparently, she was personality deficient before she lost her memories. Not one person has said, "Hey, you were so outgoing and full of life before you fainted." I guess there are some out there (in the world of anime) that find that blank-stare-anno-etto-fragile-disposition to be a turn on.

Whatever! At least the show supplies me with a decent dose of 2D (megane) guys to feed my fetish!

FUCK YES. They're going Shin's route. I am so happy. I feel bad for the Heroine, she must be so confused. But I don't think I would run away from Shin, even if he said he killed someone.

Wait.

Okay maybe I would. But he looked so upset.

Orion D''": I hate it when he's not there. Although his commentary is sometimes annoying.

I thought Ukki would have a deeper voice, it's so high. :/ Not sure I like it. Oh well, I hope I get used to it.

It's you who should understand this is a "Discussion board" not "Praise the living Jesus out of Amnesia board"

If you can't take a little amount of criticism of this show, you should better just stay away, because there will always be criticism to every god damn show in existence, Especially for this anime that is lacking in every category.


Just like every other anime too. I don't like things that are perfect which everyone will enjoy because then it'd be over rated.

I liked this episode a lot better than the first. I know the show is flawed and the heroine is annoying but that's because she has exactly zero lines in the original game. I do think they could've done a bit better to convert this into anime format because it's too much like a visual novel right now to be any good to people who don't know and love the shit out of the original game like me.

I love Ukyo, by the way! And I realllly hope that since they're going with the parallel worlds/giving every route some screen time thing that they'll end with his route.

I am going to give this one another episode before I decide to drop it or not into the anime dumpster where it belongs right about now...but being that I am in a generous mood, well...one more should do it.
So much lethargy is to be had with this series. I cannot take anything seriously when everyone is primping and posing and looking like last year's fashion wannabes. Poor so-called heroine...so insipid in her response to everything around her and so boring too...that amnesia really did a number on her that by the time she so-called recovers I may very well not give a damn.
The guys are hot for sure, but ask way too many questions or just check you out but do not bust a move...now, I do agree the way to wake me up is by letting Shin kiss me too and then some. He is a looker except for the hideous outfit he has on.
That so-called dialogue that he has going with Toma is silly and yawn inspiring...a sorta Arcana Famiglia tripe that was suffered through a while back...yawn.
And as far as expressing one's freewill opinion on what this show is or isn't...hell, I agree with everyone else herein...I have the freewill to say what I wanna say about this snoozefest series.
If something is made public and is for the taking or rejecting...then tis an open field. Okay, let's see what happens in the next episode before it gets/not gets dumped. Ah...what fun. ;P
