So, Key has done something they don't usually do: giving the Bromantic Foil a girl of his own and a potential Good End.

So the most Genki Girl is paralyzed in real-world? Ayu from Kanon springs to mind.

The problem with this series is that Maeda is splitting his time between composing and storywriting. As a result, the music is breathtakingly gorgeous (and made me into an even harder fan of GirlDeMo), but the story takes a massive hit.

Granted, this is a heartwarming story, but since there're 3 eps left, the story takes a turn for the abnormal to deal with everyone at once to prevent messy one-episode-at-a-time people reaching their Nirvana. I sense a major cop-out.

4/5, got spoiled a little bit, kinda disappointed, but still heartwarming.

Great episode! i got a little sad at the end.

So that was just them imagining that they would hopefully meet in the real world or did they change their fate through helping each other?

Also apparently he doesn't mind helping Otanashi getting people to disappear which makes his job a little more easier.

Finally,everyone will be happy... or not? Well, it depends on the finale.However only 3 episodes left and i don't think that they will end the anime properly.Maybe there should be a second season xD

Well, that was random. Suddenly they like each other enough to want to marry each other? Whatever.

Poor Angel Beats!, it aspires to be so much and yet never quite hits the mark.

They never said how ANYONE is dead (unless I'm wrong ?).


That's because they're not dead. This episode practically confirms the coma/gameworld/whatever theory that's been going on.


I can see it going this way now. Iwasawa was never really shown dying, though she does say she died. Otonashi seems to be the only one we've seen die, even then he may have just gone crazy unconcious but I'm not sure. The rest are still undisclosed.


Its pretty obvious that they will never reveal their deaths..


Besides Otonashi's, so far I agree with you.


This also gives me the idea that Hinata seems to understand everything that is going on. He did say he had a lot of people to look over at. He was also the protagonist of the prequel.

Let's just hope there's a huge cliffhanger in the end of the thirteenth episode. Because

The ending kinda confused me. I'm guessing right before you disappear, the ideal life you were denied flashes before you? Or something like that?

Also, while I'm not the type to cry at anime (but there's always a first time for everything!), I'd be lying if the whole Yui's backstory + Hinata's confession/description of what their life would've been like business didn't melt this nerd's ice-encased heart just a bit.

It was quite clear that Yui and Hinata had feelings for each others. The romance didn't come out of nowhere, though a small buildup would have been nice.

Tenshi is also further proving my 'Starcraft' player joke, but that new Hand Sonic technique was more like the Zerg than the Protoss.


As soon as i saw tenshi with hand sonic, the first thing that came to mind were
'Are those zealot Psi-blades?' I'm being serous.

Heh, this might sound weird. The part that got me the most was seeing Yui's mother shedding a tear of happiness. For some reason, I fully understand what it is as a parent to see your child having a friend/lover even if he/she has a handicap. That was the most beautiful part of it for me. XD

actually i think that this is 80% probable now :)...
remember when we found out that Otonashi had a train crash and everyone thought that's how he died,and then it was revealed that he survived?
why wouldn't this be possible again...it's not like the doctors came to him and said...this dude is dead
i'm imagining that he was saved and now he's in a coma because of the wounds...

and people who thought that the images with Yui and Hinata walking together were from their past....you really don't understand this show do you?:p
the animators just showed Yui's imagination there

yeah cant read 7 pages of comments (plus im to lazy to if i could) but
kinda sad yui is gone, i found her ammusing (i can say that now, since the haters found something else to hate since she isnt there anymore)
but one thing i wish that was different is...
that she didnt dissappear, but she stayed, and hinata had to put up with being "married" to yui
i would have lol as much as some TK scenes =P

Pretty good episode.

The scenes with Kanade were nice as usual. <3

Yui disappeared right when I actually started not to get annoy.. to like her. The German supplex thing and the football scene were awesomely funny and cute...

Well, i still hated the "will you marry me, sempai?". It felt like it came out of nowhere ; is she willing to marry anyone who's nice to her? I'd feel bad for the heroic Hinata if it were the case.

The alternative reality in which the two of them meet was moving enough to make me remember that it's actually a Key anime. So cheers ! It was cheap drama but i'm a sucker for it. :)

Ok now that was bullshit. That whole marriage thing felt so fake. I mean there never was any love between the two of them, but for the sake of the episode we get a sudden marriage proposal. How retarded. Oh well, such low level plot is to be expected from this piece of crap anime.
Only good thing about this episode was Kanade. Loved how she threw up the guitar. Hell, Kanade is the only decent thing about this anime.

@0za -she didnt say it just because she's willing to marry anyone she's like testing otonashi that would he marry yui if yui is in that state. paralyzed and bedridden, always needs someone to take care of her, yui said "that god took all of her happiness" and otonashi replied "that's not true" then yui said "then sempai will you marry me?"

I think the "will you marry me" was more to prove that nobody would marry her. She didn't actually want Otonashi to marry her.

Those who are still against Otonashi "pushing" people to disappear, you should be able to see that they disappear because they are happy. Happier than they could ever be, living forever with friends in high school (as good as that sounds).

You guys need to realize that the minutes of the episodes we've seen so far don't represent the time they've all been together. The teasing between Yui and Hinata we've seen so far made the whole marriage thing only logical in my book. Decent episode.

that was probably one of my favorite ends and the music for it was perfect, and I rather highly doubt Hinata was lying to help her move on at all, those were likely very honest feelings. I sort of pinned them as a pairing during the first baseball segment. So Hinata doing that was to me ideal. and Made perfect sense at the same time.

As for the shadow I wonder what that could be now. I am interested , will this be the start of our catalyst to how the series ends? THere isnt enough time left for a char by char.

Random Note:

And I still contest that i have yet to see a single person from the cast truly die outside of this world. >.>

how about this... all of em are in a coma and if they fulfill their dreams or wishes they'll disappear and wake up right? but otonashi remembered everything he didnt disappear because he's dead. same as kanade's. so the dead wont disappear and the in-comas will.
