| Hmm.. seems to be different from the ova.. oh well. we will see how this go.. |
 |
| The art style is weird. It somehow reminded me of the art style from Casshern Sins. By the way, good episode. |
 |
| been a fanboy for Suzuka Animation and the Manga, and then got hooked with Kimi no Iru Machi's Manga. So was ecstatic about this new adaptation but... They should've atleast used the same animators and character designer's of the Suzuka series... In my humble opinion there are alot of things wrong with the current Kimi no Iru Machi animation just by looking at the first episode. The Character Design is really really bad (just check out their nose...). The cahracter's are also so tiny. Misplaced eye's etc... The background scenes and animation is not that bad but can be better. VA's on the character's feels really off. And where they started the story for the adaptation... why did they start on that arc? ..... o_o.... they skipped alot... i mean alot... Well if you read the manga you'll know what i mean, but if you haven't just try reading a few volumes... It really signifies that this Kimi no Adaptations is bad :(. Also this Arc is not ntr... but meh.. if you read the manga this is not worth the watch.. Its unbearable @_@.... |

Show seems ok, guess I will have to watch the ova to get the back story. How is this show related to Suzuka? It takes place in the same universe as Suzuka, about two years after the end of the manga at the beginning of the manga, which is about a year and a half before the beginning of the anime. In Tokyo, Haruto is living with his sister in the same dorm that Yamato and Suzuka live in. They are his next door neighbors, Asuka is on the other side, at least in the manga. The manga has several mentions of characters from Suzuka, in particular Honoka and, of course, Yamato's aunt and cousin. Other than that, there is very little relationship. I also posted a pair of preview posts on the blog I write for. You can read them, and my review of episode 1 here (The episode 1 review will be first, since it is in "most recent post" order.) babymilo91 said: The art style is weird. It somehow reminded me of the art style from Casshern Sins. By the way, good episode. That shouldn't be too surprising. They have the same director. I expect he is responsible for the visual style... argilium said: i heard non-chronological order is the rage these days.. It isn't just "these days". It is one of the most popular styles of "Modernist" writing. You start the story at some pivotal point where where everything changes, then tell the story by telling the earlier and later portions in an alternating fashion, either to mimic the effects of human memory or just to be avante garde. It became really popular in post WWII writing, but was used extensively by early 20th century writers like Faulkner. But, yes, it is a common narrative style in anime. |

| the art is kinda weird, but I liked it. So many cats <3 neko neko neko |
| I was really looking forward to this because I liked the OVA so much but the fucking art style and shitty animation is making me want to kick a sheep. The voice acting sounds awkward too even though I like a lot of the voice actors and the mouth animation and syncing was crap. Quite disappointed, hopefully it picks up or I'll most likely drop it. |
| Wow. They started with Haruto leaving for Tokyo. Damn. This anime will be... sadder than I thought since they sped up things... But judging from the episode two preview, it looks like it adapts the first chapters of the manga. Can't wait to see how they adapt this. |

Fuck you Gonzo!! relax everyone relax... at least it has some fanservice :p lol XD kidding well just hope it has a good story :) |
| Really liking the art ; u ; Cant wait to see and learn more of the story ^^ |
| It was ok. It made me feel... cramped. It felt like pretty much the whole episode was all close ups, and when it wasn't it was at an odd angle. Also, I don't like that it started a third of the way into the manga... why? |
| I don't know the studio, but I kind of like where this series is going. Considering that, I didn't really mind the art and character design. So I like how it's started so far, I'm expecting more from it as well ^^ Good OP and ED songs, too. |
 |
| HAHA! WOW! Starting from the awful Tokyo Arc from the get-go? I like where this is going. Dropped. |
| Question, in order to watch this do I have to watch the 2 OVA's as the called "Sequel"? Or does it start from scratch |

Manga is before the OVA |
| Sword in hand, a warrior clutches stone to breast. In sword etched he his fading memories In stone, his tempered skill By sword attested, by stone revealed. Their tale can now be told |
| Can someone explain to me this so called "RAGE" that everyone's talking about??? I can't seem to gasp the mentality of the manga readers so yeah i need a first aid kit. Thanks in advance. |

Thanks a lot, was about to rush into this one but don't want to miss out anything Actually, I think the flashbacks in episode 2 would clear a lot of things out. So, there's no need to do anything before watching this anime. |
| As far as i know this is the first TV series for 'Kimi no Iru Machi', or am I wrong? Although I can't really understand the decision to start this season with Haruto coming to Tokyo, I am actually glad it does, because this was, in my opinion, the most interesting part of the manga. I wonder at which point they will end the series. |
esenick said: To make it more clear: Chapter 1 - 65 The story that has been skipped. (Also at the end of Chapter 62 we have the introduction of probably the favorite character in the stories of the most readers, Shiho Amagi, Haruto's senior, really good friend, and teacher in cooking, she's awesome!) Chapter 66-70 The OVAs Chapter 71-79 Skipped part between the OVAs and the Current episode. Chapter 80-110 Will probably be the anime if it's 13 episodes long. On chapter 111, we have a time skip of 1.5 years and now they are in College, so if the story is 26 episodes long, it would only make sense to end it at chapter 146. So if you want to understand what's going on, you'll need to read at least 79 chapters, 80 is where the episode starts. Some people said "they don't make clear why Yuzuki disappeared", they don't because in the next 4-5, if not, 8-9 episodes for sure, we will pretty much see it with our own eyes when they meet and she explain to him the whole situation of her stopping all communications with him, it's in the story. Thank you for the information! Might as well continue onto the manga, and leave the anime hanging as it is... |
 |
| I haven't read the manga in years but I still hate Rin. |
 |
| Well, guess I'll drop this. Didn't expect it to be this bad. I don't like the character designs. And also the animation was bad. Low budget project? Anyways, the manga sucked starting from when Asuka appeared so... goodluck on those who will continue watching this. Prepare for various bullshit-ness that will happen. Seo, just end the Manga! Fuck! |
| Any reason why Rin's seiyuu was swapped from Yuuki Aoi? |
| We're the same. Nuisances with nowhere to go. |

Well, I personally think that they are going adapt both the "past" arcs and the present simultaneously, just that the past ones are probably going to be shorter. |
| I like this very much |
| It's like something released in the 90s. OVA > this old-school POC. |
| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| Enjoyable first ep! Seems really calming and sweet so far. Love the art, the characters and the animation. |
Valencia said: I'm a little disappointed. I like the art from the OVA better than this. The OP was weird to start with, but nice song though. Its only the first episode, I'll try the next few. THIS. |
| I'm really confused now. I just finished the ovas awhile ago and it was good and I like it although there are times that I got confused.. but this time.. I got confused more. So where's Nanami? I've been waiting for her not the girl Asuka.. I don't like this. Especially the description of this series. I want to see a love triangle -- Eba and Nanami, not Asuka. And I want Eba to end up with Haruto :) |
| I just love those accents :D But i'm lost in what's going on. Why wont they see each other. I've watched OVA prequel and expected sequel but looks like pieces are missing for now. |
( Currently interested in OP MC genre. Recommendations are welcomed, preferable those yet not on my list ) |
| I rather loved this first episode, got directly a more serious tone and well while the pace is rather slow it's still lovely to watch! |
 |
| art is okay execution and fluidity sux major balls and voice acting suffer as consequence what a shame... |
 |
| The Art is Medial.-They made it more realistic (OVA was good) Opening was quite the medium too. Feels a more serious tone than the OVA before. Main characters Debut. Planning to read the manga after the TV series. Looking forward to this Anime!!! Asukaxharuto at the episode!!! Rin changes drastically!!! (well on the appearance much) |

| Coming from someone who has not read the manga, i liked the first episode :) |
| Why the sudden change of artstyle? I liked the artstyle of the OVA better. Something about this seems off.I'll probably get use to it. I like the OP song. It's nice. We are introduced to two new character that were not in the OVA. Cool. Haruto moves so he can meet Eba. Now that's dedication! Good episode. I really like the ED song but the animation is a bit boring. It looks really low budget. |
| he looks like a douche |
 |
| Yeah as an anime only viewer, it's a good start coming from the OVA, least MC went through his promise. Artwork is ok for now, will judge as it goes. |
