| That was one epic blush, Yuta BTW Did anyone notice Luluco and Nova in the mall when Tenga and Chidori were talking? |
| The only thing i like was the character design |
Stay in yesterday 時を止めて |
| BEST PART OF EPISODE: Now pls Trigger, give us an BD OVA where Niko decides to wear a gas mask and gets recruited into a secret task force. |
 |
| The ending could've been better but it was still an enjoyable series for me. That Luluco & Nova cameo. |
| lel did first girl just lose her end girl status?! yaaaaaasss 2 of my ships are canon now XD |
| Sonozaki's smile at the end. That is a smile I want to protect. |

I started the episode looking for Luluco's cameo but gave up after the bridge scene. Will now have to keep my eyes peeled for all new Trigger anime. Trigger's Avengers please. Nico = Spring please. |
 |
| what a perfect last shot! sonozaki smiles! this anime could have given so much more, but after all if i take it for what it is without thinking about what it could've been, i think i love it very much. |
 |
| it was a great watch for me, sure its not perfect but it could have been much worse |
| I think this ending is just OK... not so good nor so bad. I thought it would be worse. |
| I was surprised that it was such a relatively happy ending. Expected more bittersweetness after all the drama we've been through, |

| Last few episodes ruined it for me. Maki and yuta got together in the end was nice, only pairing that made sense and had noticeable developments. Trying to pair all the characters up was a a bad call I think. Overall a disappointing show for me. |
| It wasn't perfect, but it was a fun watch. It really hurt from the 12 episode format, but what can you do. |
 |
| Ngl, it ended better than I expected. I really enjoyed this series overall. |
 |
| Okada once more left the best girl (Nico) without a guy. But at least she wrapped romance somehow better than in AnoHana. |
 |
| Nori's plan in action this episode reminded me of Gatchaman Crowds Insight, somewhat. Katsuhira and Hisomu: masochist buddies for life! Also, that last scene between Yuta and Maki was pretty funny. xD abyss333 said: Rushed as fuck obviously. But are u seriously telling me that those kids lives were ruined (the one in vegetated state) causse Sonozaki refused to give up their pain cause she didnt want to feel alone. SERIOUSLY WTF IS WRONG WITH HER. However i did really like everything else about this anime. But fuck Sonozaki, i feel bad for her but i still dont like her. 7/10 Yeah, that's pretty messed up. Fai said: BEST PART OF EPISODE: Now pls Trigger, give us an BD OVA where Niko decides to wear a gas mask and gets recruited into a secret task force. I think Nico's a tad bit too large around the chest area to be that character. Who knows, though, maybe she just changes for some reason LOL. |

| very unfortunate that this show only has 12 episode and the plot was focusing only on kizna system and the relationship between Agata and Nori. it's very unfortunate, thus, for me, the end isn't really satisfiying to me. i kinda hope to see another season of this with a different title (obvious cause it would obviously not about kizna again) which would be continuing their romance relationship. Especially Nico > Tenga > Chidori. 12 episode would be enough to cover all of that. i really hope to see that, but i doubt they will make more of it. i really doubt it. Overall series; it's a very enjoyable, entertaining and fun show imo. i really like the execution on the character development and characterization on Agata and Sonozaki. and i really like how they made per episode as the character development episode as well with plot development at the same time. and when the climax came (episode 9), the main plot and character connected to eachother which i think it's great. Character wise, a likeable character overall imo. funny and amusing xD but it's really too bad that they didn't show more of the drama except Agata and Nori. 9/10 from me :D i really enjoy it a lot xD it was a fun ride. Fai said: BEST PART OF EPISODE: Now pls Trigger, give us an BD OVA where Niko decides to wear a gas mask and gets recruited into a secret task force. holy shit. i didn't realize that. i was paying attention more on Tenga and Chidori cause i can't let such a good scene aside xD |
 |
| Nico deserved better but overall solid series 7/10 |
| I don't like the direction this show took. That romance was unnecessary and rather stupid. Nothing special, average I'd say. Nori's smile was precious tho :) 5/10 |
 |
| Hmm, thought Kacchon and Nori chan would become more alive after the whole incident and the Chidori/Tenga pairing still pisses me off, it was so forced but I did like seeing Chidori getting jealous at the end. |
vong10 said: Hmm, thought Kacchon and Nori chan would become more alive after the whole incident They probably will, but gradually. Just like they showed that Katsuhira's old friends started to get their sensations back, but only little by little. |

| the road was bumpy but I really really liked this last episode! couldn't ask for anything better! YUTA x MAKI is the best anime couple ever! I freaking love these two oddballs! I can't get over the fact this is all we will see of these two... SONOZAKI is the best waifu. Seeing her get close to Katsuhira was so so satisfying! I freaking adore direct and honest kuudere-type girls and boys. NICO is the best eccentric comedic relief character ever! she had some of the most impactful lines in this series. what can I say, she's so great. Chidori and Tenga wore down my good nature at times, but in the end they got over their hangups and we got to see their sweet side again. Chidori was cute af. some episodes were great and some not, but it was never boring! I think everyone should give this show a try and see if they enjoy the characters. strong 7/10 for me. |

| How are you gonna "get your pain back" and then fall 100 ft into water with terrible form? They should be dead. Anime physics aside, this anime tries to do so much for the sake of melodramatic romance. |
| The ending was surprisingly cute... I didn't expect it to end like that. |
| Nico x Tenga is still best couple, fuck chidori, SHE AIN'T A LIGHTING BALL@!! |
 |
| While I absolutely love the themes this show explores, the execution was heavily lacking. Lame plot, weak characters. Maki's 2 episode arc was the only thing I liked about it. |
| i mean overall the lasp ep was alright, nothing special and i still hate sonozaki and i could have predicted the outcome, but let me just say; the sweetest fucking part of the whole show was the last scene with maki and yuta ;n; honestly the best ship in the show. she loves him so much let me die also nico and chidori deserve better. especially nico i do sort of agree that the chidorixtenga pairing does seem a little forced but imo with their history in the rest of the show i feel that chidori had at least slight lingering feelings for him anyways. which was especially hard to notice since she was so focused on kacchon, but as soon as i saw them walking together on the camp episode it was an immediate ship for me. now, nicoxtenga on the other hand is what seemed really forced to me. like ???where did that come from??? she's too good for him ^i'm glad i'm not the only one who was thinking that he accepts her for the wack-job she is i'm so in as for kacchonxnoriko ... meh i mean, sure they have history and they love eachother blah blah blah and i guess they could be kinda cute, but they just seem too emotionless and bland for them to really be an interesting couple to me i need more @ trigger make a movie or a spin-off or another season |
 talk me down safe & sound too strung up to sleep ⋯⋯ ♬ ⋯⋯ overground, watch this space i'm open to falling from grace |

|
| I LOVED IT AND IM SO SAD THAT IT ENDED :(((((( even tho my Chidori X Katsuhira ship didn't sail im okay with it because Chidori was happy and that is all i care about, plus the Chidori X Tenga ship has just sailed. 10/10 for me <333 |

| So after all the talk of saving her friends, Nori-chan was hogging all their pain which caused them to be veggies??? And just dishing out pain, they turned to normal????? Then why build such a grandiose plan of world peace and friendship, when they don't even know that friends are made through interaction, whether you kizna'ed them or lock them together in a cell, ultimately talking or sharing conversations are what gravitate them to acquaint them and become friends. |
cavr said: That shipper fanservice in the end felt especially forced and pointless. Considering majority of posts here are "OMGOMG MUH SHIP SAILED THE FEEEELS", its blatantly obvious what kind of mentality the show targeted. |
|
| Well this ended up being a clusterfuck Everything was so rushed in the end. The relationships weren't built to their full extent except ex fat kid and depressed chick Oh well didn't expect much from this anyhow |
 |
| Can't say that was a great ending, but guess I'm ok with it. Definitely not as good as Mari Okada's other works (AnoHana, NagiAsu), but it had its fair share of moments and "feels". Wished it was a 2-cour, but oh well.... I enjoyed it (especially the second half) nonetheless. 8/10. |

(hence why katsuhira couldn't feel anything either, he was still "inside" of her while she was getting these treatments, as were the other kids) and once she understood friendship and companionship, she finally realized that even without the kiznaiver system there could be bonds, and she never knew that before; because she was all alone before she turned into a kizuna. she thought the only way people could bond was to be kiznaivers. so when she finally realized the truth, she let go of her beliefs, and she let go of everyone else's pain. |

| The best thing about this show was the opening theme song and the animation. Apart from that I only really found half of the episodes interesting 6/10. |
| I felt like ending was a bit rushed it could've been better if it had 13 episodes instead of 12 still it was an enyoable ride.My favorite characters are definitely Hisomu and Nico not because they are the most unique characters but because they helped others so much.Seriously if there weren't them it may have taken an eternity to conclude all these madness. |
 |
| Too bad for Nico :/ Still a fun series overall. |
| Great concept Good promises Fine Characters Bad Execution |
