| It's too predictable for my high IQ, so I didn't feel anything toward it. But I appreciate for what it try to achieve but i think anime will get his downfall after this episode. |

| At first I wasn't really digging the reincarnation aspect. Even though it felt like a roundabout way to expose the dark corners of the idol industry, the way the "babies'' were so easily letting loose and the rest reacted to them wasn't very convincing nor was the "sensei"'s moderated reaction to being so close to his idol. However as we got more into the lie subject, the more I started to empathize with Ai and the way both Aqua and Ruby protected her. At last, what finally grabbed me were the last 15 minutes. They caught me completely off guard since I didn't think the show would get that dark. Ai was actually planned to be dead for the rest of the show? No wonder I didn't see any promotional material for her later on the show. And that death sequence is so well animated, from the blood and the hair string to how the light in her eyes fades away. Now, the show has portrayed its true colors as a murder mystery, kinda like Erased but in a completely different scenario. Let's see where this goes. |

| Couldn't watch the whole thing, dropped at 26min Why is this rated so highly? what are people smoking these days? |
| THAT WAS JUST THE PROLOGUE. jesus effing christ |
| Holy fudge, this is a premiere and a half! Probably the best premiere in a long while? Can't really think of something else besides Shingeki no Kyojin for me, and that came out a decade ago. I could see the buzz around this show and I knew it was going to be good. But this good? Gee, consider me surprised! Boy, did I shed some tears there, when Ai-san got the magic three words out, I was just an emotional wreck. Takahashi Rie-san is a goddess and her performance during that whole scene is far too good honestly. I really got the bad vibes when she contacted the biological father in particular and yup, just that. 10/10 prologue, can't wait for the revenge story next! Doga Koba giving it all their love and soul, thank you so much! Aqua's realisation of the possible culprit was on point, they really captured the darkness really well and the effect with the eye. I'm sold. |

| So far this adaptation is going great. The dark drama from the story with colorful and deceivingly cheerful narrative was perfectly captured in the anime. |

| It was good, I guess it's refreshing? I don't know, in any case it was fun and I'm sure I'll enjoy the rest 8/10? Tbh I was really bothered by them being literal one year olds and acting and moving like this I just couldn't get past that suspension of disbelief but it was still good |
No watch list sig cuz "You watch anime in 3 days or 3 months! Such is the proper way!" |
| damn, Ai is such a fun character lol also, wtf these kids sure are smart (cough) i really laughed like 50 times in this episode (also damn it was long) anyway... meh, i was hoping Ai wouldn't die, but i was totally expecting it, specially when they kept talking about the dome let's see what comes next, with the kids already quite big lol |
favorite "new girls" from fall 2024 <3 (yeah i didn't watch much in 2025...) ... click sig for older seasons  |
| I recognized the location they were in around 1:04:00 from watching Stand Alone Complex years ago and after a little research I found out it was a real place you can go to (Starbucks Shibuya Tsutaya). Regarding the episode itself, I'm surprised at how deep it went in general. Giving child Aqua the same voice as Rudeus from Mushoten was perfect. And whoever decided to make it last 90 minutes deserves a raise. |
| Ai just broke my heart. As a mother, I cannot expect anything more from her. <3 |
