| One of the best anime I watched for a long time. They could've showed Hakaze and Yoshino kissing or somethin though... Aika, until the very end ahahahah! 9.5/10 for the anime, 10 for MAL! |
| Just remembered this post from the episode 12 discussion that I made when I first joined - xFelipe said: Ratohnhaketon said: This episode definitely threw me off completely. Was stunned by the turn of events and can't wait to see what's going to come out of this. This is only my personal speculation but Stop talking about manga spoilers casually as if you just guessed correctly to try and sound smart.It's really stupid. In your fat face Felipe, I was wrong and so were you. |

| An interesting take on such an anime, I found myself wanting to keep watching even though the style of the anime wasn't my cup of tea (in terms of the dark tone at the start, animation wise it was appealing). On the topic of the last episode, where did the sword of exodus come from? It was obviously nice that the tree of genesis was destroyed, but Hanemaru got defeated and then the sword came out of nowhere for him to claim victory? Or am I missing something here. Other than that, the way the anime tied up the loose ends was well done. I had a smile to my face when I saw the video Aika left for Mahiro and Yoshino and how she teased them about showing her naked body to them. Though at the end we did not see whether Yoshino and Hakase kissed or hugged. I guessed that's left for our imagination, but I would of preferred to see what happened. All in all I give this series an 7/10. |

| Satisfying and fulfilling ending IMO. I've left discontent at so many anime endings, for once I'm quite pleased except for that ending troll. They could have ending it perfectly with a little magic there, if you know what I mean. |
 |
| Loved just about everything in this anime. Easily 10/10. Even though they didn't explicitly show it, I think it is safe to say that Hakaze x Yoshino is going to happen. |

| That was a great ending (except the sword that appeared out of nowhere) and somewhat emotional,makes me want to bump this to 7/10 but the show overall was still not very satisfying to me. the pacing was bad imo,side characters were meh,twists that aren't that great and largely predictable and not to mention a lot of build-up only to get anticlimactic results. It was a decent watch though,not bad. 6/10. |
| great serie 10/10 from me Aika T_T i will miss you, she is so.... i cant describe her with word, um... i say brave, able to sacrifice her own life for the sake of yoshino (teary eyes) great ending yoshino and hakaze ending up together, and for mahiro as well thank you for this entertaining serie |
| so the ultimate final attack is giant gold sword^^ a fine ending, Mahiro had developed into a better character than I expected still not sure are the trees from alien or nature... I guess we will leave that as it is overall a good series, enjoyed it :) |
| A great series for me, especially the first half. I will miss Hakaze. The Golden Tree/Sword was kinda eh... though. |
| Very interesting and cliffhanger doesn't exist here :D |
 |
| I would be the best anime I've ever seen if it wasn't for the second half. But anyway, I think an anime should be rated by the journey itself and not judging episode by episode. And I've enjoyed this anime a lot, specially the OST which is in my opinion the best one I've ever heard by far, probably including videogames and movies. I really hope there's another season or whatever where Mahiro gets the credit he deserves. 9/10 PS: The first half is a huge masterpiece in every f*** way. |
| 5/5 Episode to give space to later, leaves little room for maneuver in the initial part of the narrative. It follows a fight a little too hasty and dull , gosh ! The technique was great ! * _ * Plot close completely, maybe there was a sequel in the series , the story ! Sad , I was fond of the various characters, abandoning them after so long leaves me a bit sad ! T_T How are nervous about not having met the elusive Yu -chan and for not understanding who should meet Mahiro ! But above all, do not know , after the end of the main story , the stories of the various protagonists. Oh well , the manga goes on , who knows in the future! Drawing really good, exuberant comedy throughout the episode . Summing up, in the end even this latest series of Bones I liked , criticized in some points, but I would say microscopic defects . Technically it is maintained almost always valid , colors and scenery were bellini ! The character design I liked it very much! * _ * Final rating 7/10...no , do 8/10 ! : D |
 |
| 10/10 A great series , totally one of my top. First 13 episodes were intense , then it went into a slower pace plus a bit of Hanemura's comedic vibes then it went into a stage where it became motherfawking intense. Shit. This is great. |

| For being an "underrated" series I thought it would be amazing considering that it many claim it is underrated despite having a rating above 8 on MAL . . . To put it bluntly, it was okay. It wasn't "original" and after the first action scene I kind of lost interest since it stopped trying and instead went more along the lines of many other supernatural series where they just toss beams at eachother. By unoriginal I mean that A) Characters were not horrendous but nowhere near original (Mahiro's type is somewhat common, Yoshino is also common with the whole looks like a good guy but surprisingly manipulative, and of course Hakaze is extremely common. Then we have Aika, who perhaps was supposed to be original, however her character has been done quite a few times in manga before, where you have a character that the MC(s) thought was weak actually turn out to be some powerful person years after their death) . . . B) The plot, well the plot was also rather unoriginal, in fact it kind of follows the path of many Supernatural/Magic anime where some apocalyptic catastrophe needs fixing . . . Just think Kaze no Stigma and you got this anime with minor changes here and there. I also had problems with the amount of plot holes, using something like time travel is an extremely dangerous thing to use, ESPECIALLY when you have to justify it logically, and furthermore justify the outcome of going back in time. Simply put, this anime didn't cover up the plot holes and actually came out with a sloppy solution to going back in time. Nor did it properly explain how anything could travel from one time to another whether it was voice or body, probably because their was no way to explain it if they are supposed to be using a power that affects the world's logic as little as possible. I just pray the manga did a better job of this. So, considering all of that, I will actually be generous and give this a 7/10, however I bet if I read the manga the score would be a 5-6/10 since I am alot harsher with rating manga. |

reiben92 said: Amazing series. Easily 10/10 for me, enjoyed it so much; the pace, art, character, plot and everything else seems perfect. Very intense first half, the second was much more calm and relaxing (but still enjoyable). Ditto. You said everything I want to. |
 |
| Really wish it could have ended with Yoshino x Aika... Her character was perfect. It was such a shame she did not have much screen time.. |

 |
| Really enjoyed the first half but the rest was average. 8/10. |
 |
| good series overall... best part was the argument before teleporting hakaze into the barrel for the first time.. very anti-climatic snorefest ending I also don't give a shit about shakespeare stuff 8/10 |
 |
| And that's how you defeat a tree! :) I prefer the first half of this series. Overall i will give this a 8/10 |

| Nice ep. Hanemura pulled himself together and defeated the tree. Everybody lost his magic and they are gonna live a normal life. That final message. I'm gonna miss Aika. Soooo Mashiro is on his way to make a girlfriend heh? Yoshino and Hakaze are also together and good. |
| that ending was way too proper. AIKA NUDE out of 10 |

| That was a good ending... Pretty good anime over all ^^. All the quotes and Aika :D |

| Yeaaaaap good pacing, everything's in the right dose. |
- I've always... always been watching you... This whole time... Because you were there... That's why I was able to try hard. So you could have some balance! So you wouldn't treat me like a kid! So you would see me as an actual girl! Even while you were gone... You were right here! You were right here in my heart! |
| Omg, awesome ending for an awesome series <3 Will miss so much this characters :'( 09/10! |
| It would have been better if we saw Aika's nude body lol! Good series but I prefer the first arc though. |
 |
| Awww no kiss... ok then... :( They had to tease us about it to the very end! Kinda like Aika-chan! Great series though!And it's rare to see a proper ending that doesn't leave things just hanging. I'll give it an 8 or a 9. |
| I hate the word “fate.” Birth, encounters, partings, success and failures, fortune and misfortunes in life. If our lives are already set in stone by fate, then why are we even born? There are those born to wealthy families, those born to beautiful mothers, and those born into the middle of war or poverty. If that’s all caused by fate, then God is incredibly unfair and cruel. Because, ever since that day, none of us had a future and the only certain thing was that we wouldn’t amount to anything. - Takakura Shouma |
| I marathoned the shit out of this anime holy crap what an amazing series 9/10. |
| I LOVE THIS ANIME!! It is by far one of the best animes ive watched ever! Really like how the ending isnt rushed and how the whole story actually went. The drama here and there, the romance between the 4 is simply moving. Together with the action and plot moving forward. Really an awesome anime! I love how it ended with the anime leaving the viewers with a slight hint of sadness with Aika's death yet at the same time happiness with Hakane, Yoshino and Mahiro's ending. All in all i'd give this anime a 10/10!! Although... It would be sooo much better if they'd at least showed a kiss scene between Yoshino and Hakane at the end ;D |
If anime characters were real, i'd probably be the happiest person alive! Or just dead.... ^_^ |
| This was a great anime! Considering the plot I think the title of this anime should have been "My Sister's Boyfriend" or "Tree Wars" LOL. I like how they divided the first part with action/adventure and the second part with romance/drama. The recap episode was irrelevant. Overall great show! 8/10 |
| Was definitely a great show, i'm a bit surprised i overlooked this show for so long, oh well, i was a bit worried about this show going off of "logic"...especially when it came to the middle of the series, i had flash blacks to the last show i watched focusing in on "logic", Umineko no Naku Koro ni, and man was i hoping this wouldn't end up turning out like that disastrous show. Luckily it wasn't anything like it, and so far, has become my third favorite anime i've watched this year so far. 9/10 |

| Like a few others on top ^, I prefer the first half much more, everything was pretty good there. Anyway chill ending, Mahiro continues to be my favourite character, following up with Hanemura. Until the very end, I never cared much for Hakaze's crush for Yoshino, and all those Shakespeare references. Hanemura was pretty fucking badass when he pulled out that huge ass sword of Exodus or w/e to defeat the tree, although random and out of nowhere. |

| 9/10. Really, REALLY good stuff. |
 |
| I liked first part of the series quite a bit, but second was a disaster. After 11th episode it was hard for me to belive, that im watching the same show. Anyway, last episode was good conclusion to the story and i liked it much better than most of earlier episodes. |
| harem and ecchi are a cancer to whole planet bad english user |
| You guys know what could be more troll, - If Aika is such a powerful mage, she could just fake her death, considering how smart she is and how she is such a troller - If Hakaze can come from future to the past, its not possible that Aika had gone to the future, thats why she looks calm when Hakaze tell her that she was going to die, or she probably seen the future if SHE HAD LIVED, but again this would bring again to my point no 1. - and one day Hakaze end up dating Yoshino and they go on a date, imagine Aika passing them by like a boss hahah that would be epic kehkehkeh |

| 6/10 I'm really disappointed. the ep 12 was the best, after that it was a disaster. Im stupid to compare it to Death Note bcuz of that ep. Action/fantasy/psychological turn to Romance dafuq and im sick of Aika's backstory. |
| I really liked this anime. Good mix of action/drama/romance. |

| Hm oh man, I'm so conflicted. I totally would ship Yoshino with Mahiro because of bromance. But I also like Yoshino being with Hakaze. . . God dammit. Anyway! It was quite a good ending, I'm glad Yoshino didn't die still and it didn't end in some kind of tragedy. The ending got me sulky abit! |
| Lol Aika that troll Yoshino x Hakaze was kinda meh but I guess any other ending would not fit with that Aika drama going on for 24 episodes. The plot of the show was stupid as hell with some interesting twists. First half was pretty boring, but the second half made up for it. I didn't like the Hamlet quotes spamming. Characters were cool. Didn't like the OST. 7/10 Good overall Fu people. You made me search for manga ending spoilers and now I can't throw it out of my head :/ I like the anime ending much more |
