Hmmm the op was meh, I really didn't like either OPs so. . . . yeah.

Hakaze is being mean. . . . Also things are getting more and more complicated. Also did Samon sacrifice his katana to save Mahiro? I sense bromance.

4/5

Start again the series, but in truth I've got understand much, I am stupid? XD For now, the plot is indecipherable. Slow and tedious narrative fantasies of Hakaze, then it is watchable! Technically it is well done, the design is beautiful, the colors are to my liking. Only downside is not to be engaging to the matter now!

Feel bad for the mage of Exodus right now . . . Hakaze is actually a rather large bitch there . . . She figured out he wouldn't kill, so what does she do? She then sends him flying in to the air.

The atmosphere of the anime has definitely shifted from it's earlier gritty and dysopic theme. I rather enjoyed seeing Hazake action cute, and majorly crushing on Yoshino. My observations from earlier in the series is being confirmed, Yoshino may be the real villain of this, whether he knows it or not. The mage of Exodus is a wussy, nothing special, and it's about time that Mahiro figures out that Aika was going out with Yoshino.

Felt a lot of deja vu from that OP.

I don't like the fact that Hakaze got a crush on Yoshino, it's most probably a plot device which is why I find it to be wrong, because it doesn't feel "real". Mahiro continues to be awesome, lol he is probably doing what he did in the OP in the next episode. I wonder why doesn't Mahiro gets any girls? Why only Yoshino? That sort of pisses me off.

Pretty lovely development, this new character sure seems like an annoying little prick but with his power I do wonder what role he'll play together with that there might get some other romance development perhaps? Well I like where this is going so let's see what's next!

hey so Hakaze is falling for Yoshino and I have accepted the fact that Yoshino is the MC but don't you think it's un-fucking-fair that Yoshino gets all the chicks? come on. Interesting plot and awesome leads however the romance will be the downfall of this. I wonder if Mahiro will get on with Evangelion... hmm.. that chick is one hell of an eye-candy.

Nice new OP.
Hakaze has developed feelings for Yoshino, while others are suspecting that he himself is the mage of Exodus.
Evangeline only knows that Yoshino's girlfriend is Aika.

I thought the show would get back up from the horrible mix of recap + new scenes of the last episode, turns out I was wrong.

2 billion people die, the world is ok after a month. People are worshipping the tree. No comment. Not going to bother with the logic behind the Tree of Genesis' actions, I can already spot the plotholes.
Hakaze is turned into a love interest out of absolutely nowhere, the part where she sacrificed her talisman to save Yoshino could have been an interesting development, but it gets glossed over.
Pointless, personality-less side characters are given too much screen-time. Some weird scenes like the part when Yoshino tells Evangeline who his girlfriend was (why?), or when Samon tells Mahiro "Kill Yoshino" as soon as he wakes up.
I'm still very interested in Aika's story and Yoshino's involvement, and I hope this fake mage of exodus turns out to be a decent character.

Good episode. Nice moments.

Didn't expect Yoshino and Hakaze to meet the Mage of Exodus so soon. Hakaze really could've taken it easy on him though.

How will Mahiro react?

I like the new OP song. Animation is okay.

Hakaze just went up and kicked a stranger in the face LOL.

Arc is starting a bit slow, but I'm looking forward to when it picks up and more questions are answered.

Hanemura has only been on the screen like half an episode and I still already like him better than 90% of the cast.

Dang, this series is not afraid of change, or time skips. I just really wish they explained to us how the world was changed by the Tree of Genesis. How is the mind-control affecting people?

Nice new OP song. It fits very well.

Lol that reaction of Mahiro when he heard that Hakaza is in love with Yoshino.They look so cute together, I want to see more of this :D

I also didn't expect that they meet the Mage of Exodus so early. I'm curious what they plan next. Samon really thought Yoshino is the Mage of Exodus?

So much questions and such view answers. Up to the next episode!

The new OP song is actually greater than the plot in this episode.

I LOLed when Hakaze actually bend his arm in insane direction XD
I didn't catch any interest to the dialogue other than that.

A new character and with him the mage of exodus is introduced in this episode. He looks weak and fragile atm but this will change most probably. It's actually a bit weird how samon and the others suddenly became homies.

I hope they are gonna focus more on the trees now instead aika whom I honestly don't care about.

I m glad to see the story is not following my theory of Aika being the mage of Exodus, and having killed herself, this makes things more interesting, that said I still believe Aika isnt really "dead", expecting to see her "revival" later on.

Hakaze's personality has completely changed and now she's in love with Yoshino? She was such a strong and clever woman and now reduced to this? How disappointing. Dropped.

First OP was better -.-

Well, Hakaze really likes Yoshino lol. So, Hanemura is just an unlucky guy.

I don't think that Yoshino is Mage of Exodus.

Opening is pretty good again.

Interesting episode for sure, but I don't know what to make of the new character, he uses the power of Exodus yet he doesn't seem to be the real deal.

Aaaaand it happened, the japanese "middle of story plot twist" that changes everything.

- Cataclysmic events.
- Charatacters switch of sides.
- New characters are added out from nowhere.

Many other series came with this. Akira (manga) for a classic example.

20th century boys also.


Usually i dislike it. The mangakas use this to grab the attention of their audience once again, but for me the author just threw away the plot we had until now.

If the plot was good, now it can be not so good, everthing changed.



We had an intense thriller, now it have similarities with a stupid rom-com about yushino x hakaze, and comic relief character wtf.

And for the God's sake, the annoying misunderistanding about Aika/Yushino's boyfriend/girlfriend is getting even more attention now lol

I wanna lick Aika's armpit in that OP so bad!

That guy has that kind of power and all he cares about is his ex-gf? the heck! and he's a damn weakling. If the Tree of Exodus chose me, they'll have a really huge problem in their hands. With my kind of personality and that kind of power, I'll make sure to deal so much damage on the world before I could be brought down.

New opening sounds the same to me. Though that's not a big deal… the same as watching Yoshino scoring another woman in this series.

I'm sure we'd eventually get a scenario where Mahiro will indeed try to kill Yoshino, but for now I guess he's cool. This new character really needs some proper communication classes, because watching him talk was quite.. a deal in itself.

Not sure who the real mage of exodus is, but I'm still hoping for the Aika theory.

Has Yoshino ever even wondered who Aika’s killer was? I don’t think he has, even in his thoughts, unless I wasn’t paying attention. I guess he really is a culprit then because he’s never actually said anything that gives solid proof that he didn’t do it.

I really don’t see a way this show ends without Yoshino dying.

Also tf happened to his parents?? Did he forget about them or some shit??

Yoshino is never going to tell anyone he was Aika's boyfriend at this point.

Hanemura is the Mage of Exodus, apparently. Have a hard time believing someone with a disposition like that could be a killer, but for all we know, it could be another act.

Love how they theorycraft for a full episode that Yoshino is the mage of Zetsuen, only to be made aware that they are not exactly right.... Not sure if it means they were wrong, but at least not exactly correct.
