| Ugh.....brings religion into question doesn't it? |

| I knew as soon as the poet was given 19 days that he'd be the guy that wrote the book. And wow. just by believing in a prophecy that was nothing more than a depressed rambling, they effectively caused it to come true by destroying another's world. |
| This episode contained a lot of interesting concepts. The world is coming to and end but what the source of this prophecy. Who wrote it? And what is truth? The story of the poet was beautiful but tragic though. |

dabazzinator said: book of prophecy reminds me of the bible. shit like that just isnt true. It is supposed to be a commentary on the Bible. |
| Beautiful episode, but not as good as the first ones, 4/5 |
| This Anime has been going strong so far. |
| Lot of countries this time, it was really good |
 |
| >"only a bird with broken wings sings the truth" absolutely killer line. |
| anime ruined my life |
| Chills bro Nice prophetic bs that throws an apocalpyse to the countries. Also lol traditions. That singing girl was too spooky |
 Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate. I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death. |
| it was really well written and beautiful but i was kind of bored part of the way through |

| Didn't expect the truth about the prophecy to be revealed in the end, but it's been quite the interesting twist of a self-fulfilling prophecy. Except that it was for the country where the book was from and "the world" refers only to the specific part Quite the impressive message about how hate begets hate The middle story was also quite amusing with the country creating traditions for the sake of having traditions, but not noticing themselves that by doing so, they already have their traditions. Though it makes me wonder what their original traditions were before they ousted their former king to the forest |
| God I don't know man, I don't get it. |
| Quite amusing how a couple of the stories were linked like that. Another great episode. |
| Kino got to practically loot the town because of the citizens just giving everything away in resignation over the "world ending", and managed to bail when they started having second thoughts the next day. Talk about lucky circumstances. |

| struggling a bit to understand the order of events this ep, but it was very interesting |
