This episode was actually very touching. Probably my favorite episode so far.

So now we have ghosts? I think anything is possible, now, and these guys could be the Matrix.
That aside, I thought it was well directed. I didn't even think she was a ghost until right before they made the reveal, when it was already obvious.

The magic pieces of Miracle Train really showed itself here in this episode, and although at first I didn't understand the whole "dead girl with a score to settle" thing at first (why Miracle Train?) the sweetness and moemoe parts overshadowed the logical part of this episode, so I really enjoyed it. Roppongi got to do a bit more talking too so I'm glad since he's my favorite character!

First few seconds: AARGH annoying, shut it please. Even though she sounds fairly familiar.

I was really waiting for an episode like this. I only started watching Miracle Train recently, and I went into it really not expecting anything much so I enjoyed it because I held a low standard of how the concept was going to be presented.

But the concept is good, and they REALLY should have had more episodes like this one. I can only hope that the 12th and 13th episodes live up to higer expectations too.

I really... even if I love the episode, I really would have liked to see some focus more on the Train Stations. Roppongi is giving hints that he is the 'main' protagonist, heck, he feels the most rounded. (At least to me). But I hope they focus more on the Stations THEMSELVES in the remaining two episodes.

At this point, if this were the last episode, this anime sadly tripped on it's face, and redeemed itself very little. :[ I can only hope it gets a little better plot-wise from here.

Other than that, THIS EPISODE was VERY good. Especially for the series, and make me sniffle a little, especially at the end. :[

Some episodes are meh, while other deliver a very heartfelt emotional story. This is definitely one of those that deliver in this episode.

it was so sad with Mayu! So unfair! Her and Hideaki should have gotten married 3 years ago! Damn SOB that hit her and did not try hard enough to avoid her! This like episode 2 of Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien. Mayu was such clumsy girl yet she wanted to help everyone she could to the point of being late to her meeting with Hideaki. Roppongi was great to have helped her. I guess even ghosts can be on the Miracle Train. Loved the scenery change how things change around Roppongi station over a 3 years period. This episode tops of the one with Tochou and that kid. Mayu another person I will not forget! This part was the most TT_TT Mayu.......
Still very depressing! Damn people who don't know how to drive of avoid accidents even in situations like Mayu was in.

In spoiler my anime list for now.

That was episode was sad. I didn't realize she was a ghost until they just about revealed it. Maybe she kept reliving that day over and over with the people she helped.

Wow this episode felt nothing like Miracle Train. It felt like a completely different anime.
Well directed. I never even suspected that she was dead.
Good episode. And that part where she pecks him ~

Wow, what a touching episode D; Miracle Train is really getting good lol :P
Mayu annoyed me at first but I slowly grew to like her :P She's so nice helping everyone along the way ... I somewhat suspected she was a ghost but I was still pretty surprised when they confirmed it. It was nice how she talked to her boyfriend again and they got to talk to each other. That kiss was really sweet :')
I would totally be jealous of Mayu walking around with such handsome bodyguards XD Also lol taking pictures of them for her sister? Ahahaha XD I think Shinjuku might actually be my favourite LOL ;P
Looks like things will begin to be revealed next episode, judging by the preview, at least. Hrm ...

Yes omg I was almost bawling....;__; At first, I thought it was her boyfriend that was dead, and she kept pretending that he was alive to fulfill their promise. Boy was I completely wrong! It's the opposite! I guess she was still on Earth as a ghost because she had regrets, and Miracle Train helped her out. Roppongi seems to be a mysterious character, he is also perceptive. Hm, two more episodes. Are they gonna explain what happened in episode 7? That one episode when the train was in some weird space?

Well, now I'm sad. ;_; Didn't cry but nearly did. My heart went like "thump thump sob sob"

I got spoiled on the twist because of Tumblr but this was still an unforgettable episode. Really good pacing. I liked the story. This show will stand at a solid 6 for me, and maybe even higher if the last two episodes go beyond.
