Ep 1-4 are extremely well done and has one of the best opening part 1's Ive seen. The issue is around 8-11, there is a lot more rushing and even more manga stuff is cut out. For example, all of Satoru's sorrow over not seeing Airi anymore because his first future doesnt exist. This is made worse by the conclusion and reunion with Airi because the show emphasized Hinazuki far more. Theres also the strange interaction between Satoru and Yashiro and why they care about each other. I would have preferred a cleverer ending instead of one where Yashiro suddenly completely stopped doing crime and where he suddenly needed Satoru. And I do agree that Satoru not having hatred for the guy who killed his mother and friends is off. And then there was a lot left out like what happened to the surgery girl and such. Because of all this I hesitate between a 7 and 8 but think Ill put 7 because it ultimately couldnt maintain what made it great, they shouldve made the confrontation a success for young Satoru and not have the 15 year skip imo, since Kayo was built up so much more in the anime.
