szaba87 said: I liked the episode because of the drama part but at the end I totally disagreed with Otonashi about him wanting the Battlefront members disappear. First of all....why can't he just ask the members whether they want to disappear or not? Who the the hell he thinks he is by abruptly deciding that it's better for his friends to disappear. If they wanted to disappear they could have done it a long time ago since they knew the method. But actually....who'd want to disappear(die) from a place where one has free food, no obligation(the can do whatever they want to do), and a lot of friends to hang out with just because 1 single bad memory? In addition they don't even age.... I mean look at Yui.....the fact that she is there means that she has also some kind of tragedy in her past. Does she mope around because of this? NO! She is always cheerful and energetic. Even though she had every reason to acting like an emo she simply choosed to ignore her past and live a happy life there. She even had her dream come true by becoming one of the member of GirlDeMo. But the same is true for the other Battlefront members except Yurippe. Surely they cant ignore their past completely but they're trying to have fun and ignore the tragedy that happenned with them. So basically what I'm saying is that you can still live happily even if you had a tragic past especially in a place they're at the moment where they have friends, freetime etc. Otonashi shouldn't abruptly make them disappear just because HE thinks that's good for them. Lol, nice opinion since I kind of agree with you but they didn't come to this world for nothing. Everyone has something hiding behind their masks and they are all shouldering memories of I-don't-know-how-to-describe. Otonashi has realized that in this world, they came here in order to rest in peace and do what they couldn't do in their real lives, it's a fact that they are all died. In this world, instead of resting in peace and just disappear the SSS battlefront are struggling against something they call "god" when they haven't even got an enemy, struggling against god is just something they totally made up, kinda. Otonashi thinks (his opinion) that the purpose of this world is to just disappear, in order to disappear you have to accept stuffs just as they are and fulfill ur wishes and bla bla bla, now he feels so relieved so he can as well just disappear but he wants the other SSS members to feel the same. Eg. if you disappear from this world you wake up from a coma, if Otonashi knows it, of course he is trying his hardest to make the other disappear too, everyone is carrying a smile on their faces since they have accepted their lives in this world together with each other but that doesn't mean they don't carry any hatred against blabalba "the reason they died of". If Otonashi could release them all from this hatred and dunno "emo style", then they would feel the same as what Otonashi is feeling, light and relieved. Well, it's very sad that he is ignoring the other opinions, he hasn't even truely joined the battlefront too, in this world, they don't age, they can keep up struggling for ever, every day same shit happens etc. If he talked to the SSS members and if they all truely trust and believe in him, then everything would go more smoothly but sadly that is not happening so Otonashi and Kanade is together playing the evil people pulling strings behind the scenes just in order to let them all free and feel relieved. |
| So... Yuzuru died seconds before help arrived. Poor guy. Nice story, but kinda boring to watch. Eeh.. I have nothing more to say about this episode, so... 4/5 |
Optime olere occisum hostem! |

| Even if help arrived earlier ...I doubt they could get him to the hospital in time ! The injury was too serious ! |

MegamanZen said: Osric said: There's a reason why it takes heavy duty equipment to get in to the from the outside, you know. This is the sort of rubble that can't be shifted in any feasible space of time by human hands. Besides, they had limited supplies - it would've been madness to exert themselves fruitlessly and waste more energy and water. It also looked like there was quite a bit of snow? They could have gotten unlucky as it already was weather and and would be quite a hassle to deal with. Some people are thinking quite unrealistically about rescue times aren't they? There are quite a few complications in rescuing, many of which I'm sure you don't know. It's the internet. Go look up the news of the real world. Or as you can see, someone has already done it. Vento said: Still, that sure is a huge coincidence that everyone on the train have a pen and a donor card, lol He was applying for college, was he not? The others, some had school uniforms, while others dressed for work. And then for the last couple that aren't either... Well I carry a pen with me(might just be because I like to pen spin)... Now the donor card... That's a health insurance card. Now it wouldn't make sense to NOT carry one now, right?  Yep, I have the organ donor thing on my insurance card as well. Everyone has it in my country. |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| I didn't see a tunnel when the train crashed but it was still a very nice episode. Well directed, but maybe a tad too... punctual. Tenshi pat was cute. |

DarkIceXIII said: havsie said: shit got real I thought this episode was GREAT. Loved the flashback scene. I just don't understand... In any case, at the end of the day, it's all about Kanade. :3 But I wish it had more Yui and TK. >:( For your question: Psychological despair. QED PS: He would have been a very good doctor. |
| I hate myself. That is my philosophy. |
| I bet the number of donors in Japan will increase after this episode. It was a great epi. But I wonder how will they make everyone rest in peace, mainly Yuri. Her past was really something sad, and it's possible that she discovers that Otonashi is colaborating with Kanade to make all her SSS's members disappear. If she does, I don't think she'll like it... |
| Aaagh I got teary eyes ;____; That's such a harsh way to die. Amazing episode overall 4/5 |

| So what's Otonashi's cause of death ? Did some trash pierce his intestines or something like that ? |
| Aww They're gonna make the entire SSS disappear...This is gonna be a sad 5 episodes. |
 |
akuma2002 said: So what's Otonashi's cause of death ? Did some trash pierce his intestines or something like that ? Internal Bleeding. Probably from too much rupturing in the crash. Somehow he was able to hold that in for a week. |
| |
| Huh. Insted of dropping this after few eps I stuck around and indeed, this part was actually good. Not really lolDEEP and worthy overthinking, but derived from crap for underage to nice story with a bit of melancholy. Hopefully it'll keep up, not go back to what it was at beginning |
 |
| Ow,Otonashi....you're a very noble person. Pretty nice episode. It moved,now we have a cliffhanger! |
| they did survive for 7 days! :O But it's very sad that otonashi died at that moment >< |
| Wow I'm pretty damn pissed at Otonashi. I thought it was a pretty solid death and he did at least affect those people before going. But now after this revelation he becomes a traitor to the SSS and plans on manipulating them into moving on. It's fine if he feels at peace, but turning on the others regardless of his intentions isn't something I can respect. Can't say I saw Otonashi being the final enemy of the SSS coming. An enemy striking at them with the best of intentions. I really don't think what he is doing is much different from Naoi hypnotizing people into vanishing. |
| Aww, so he died before the team actually came. Damn. :/ Well at least he got to save others and brought meaning to their lives. I wonder what his real regret was since he didn't disappear.. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Oh wow it went in a direction I didn't see coming at all. And furthermore I'll probably enjoy this series finale more. |
 |
| darn it , otonashi is so unlucky, but such a hero. Should get the citizen award. Otonashi X Kanade Forever! |

akuma2002 said: So what's Otonashi's cause of death ? Did some trash pierce his intestines or something like that ? Either that or he suffered internal bleeding due to concussion. |
| .. so Otonashi and Kanade are going to make the SSS' disappear so they can pass on with their lives, with their first victim: Yui! (basing of the preview) I am gonna hate them for making TK disappear in the future though. This will surely make an interesting confrontation between Yuri and them, when/if she finds out their plans. |

| EP10 preview. http://www.angelbeats.jp/story2/ep09.html |
| Otonashi is finally taking the role of typical Key guys for example, Yuichi and Tomoya helping out others with their pasts and telling them to move on.(well they helped mainly girls so thats the different part i guess). |
