Anime - Visual Novel Discussion (Major Spoilers)

Redth_SA said:


Kotarou went to get Akane in the city of stone where all gaians were. He was screaming that when Gaians were holding him from taking away their holy woman... Holy shit, I especially love that moment when they got out when his parents and Nagai pushed him outside... Uwah, I really wanna see that scene.

Symphyon said:


Just saw it and I pretty much like it a lot xD

Btw funny enough I was scrolling down on twitter... I couldn't really help myself but to laugh at this edit @kotoridruid made.

Next episode PV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLCtN9J8Nhk
Loli Shizuru and Lucia!! Seems like they added Lucia to that scene in the cafe too...Dammit, it's one of my favourite scene and damn does remembering it hurts!! Anyway, next episode is also gonna include the most hilarious scene in Terra!! The "Jus' killed ur daddy 'n mommy in front o' u now get the fuck outta here, kid" scene... Holy shit, I wanna see how it's gonna be done!!

I don't want to convey my thoughts regarding the new episode on the episode discussion as my thoughts are purely VN related.

Okay so this episode 10 is so rushed on VN standards, and Terra itself is already rushed as hell and I thought it couldn't be more rushed but 8-bit prove me wrong. Like someone said on the episode 10 thread, the dramatic scenes have very less impact. Never mind how dramatic they are on the VN, but this Rewrite anime totally destroyed the "signs of still being Key material" by either not being able to handle the dramatic scenes properly or completely removing it at all(Esaka's death).

The only praise that I can give is at least they manage to make Rewrite anime looks badass.


And, inb4someoneseethispostasextremehate, I never said anything that this episode 10 is bad as a standalone anime.

This is why I don't really wanna bother at this point to go and read the threads... I mean no offense, and well make me as irrelevant because I haven't caught up to it yet... buuut, a lot of people complained about Lucia being in the anime... what's the problem with them adding her and Chihaya. if I may ask? Can someone go and elaborate maybe? when clearly they become really irrelevant for the most part in the VN except for the ending... which comes off as rather not only vague but rather pointless.

As for the Esaka vs Kotarou scenario, I saw the snippet clip from twitter so while I can't speak for the episode itself, I can speak about the fight. Yes, the fight was underwhelming. But I didn't liked the scene because of the fights in the first place... I liked the scene because of the confrontation between them two, and in that snippet it was done decently.



It was pretty much inevitable considering they don't have much time left to conclude it. In this case I really can't blame them for it. Btw, I haven't seen the episode yet (rather busy watching Sangatsu no Lion tbh) but... just saying with these two cents.

Symphyon said:


Explain the point you bolded then, at least elaborate one or two sentence... because you're not adding anything new for 3 months or pretty much 4. Being really honest.

Symphyon said:

Symphyon said:
One question, did Lucia ever said anything regarding on her gloves in the Epilogue scenario? I don't remember much about the epilogue scene at least the Dialogue (mostly because I was pretty much weeping)

Hlutur said:
Lucia: Her presence in episode 10 is a plot hole. She was supposed to be with Brenda at that time and Nishikujou was in charge of her after Lucia got her poison power. But Lucia doesn't have her poison power in episode 10, because she isn't wearing gloves and she is apparently feeling flavors.

Rodielx said:


As I read from the "Rewrite perfect visual book", the author Romeo said that Terra is the world line where the heroines wouldn't have to suffer (as much). It is implied that in Terra Lucia never got the poison powers from Brenda, probably because Nishikujou helped in rescuing her from having to be experimented on, I remember Kotarou saying that near the end after he was discovered as a traitor. So even though Nishikujou rescuing Lucia in the VN is just speculation, it isn't illogical that she did so and isn't a plot hole if 8Shit decided to show her here with Shizuru. Also Iko killed the children because they had mental problems and couldn't kill Akane because she showed improvement, Chihaya wouldn't be killed because she is totally healthy, and her being there is logical enough just because she is Gaia, either visiting or as an exception in the orphanage. People shouldn't mind them appearing, what they should mind is everything else like that garbage Kotarou vs Esaka fight UGH.

G-trys_C-lock said:
Well, whatever the case, it's still stupid change and I don't like it.
Also, Tanaka already fucked his story twice (Rewrite's+ lame new epilogue and 1st season of anime/"Kagari route" fiasco), so the hell with him.

Judging the PV we might get original terra Ending since Kotarou appearance is the same as the original ending

CHO CHOO ALL ABOARD THE FEELS TRAIN

Redth_SA said:
Next episode...
Kagari: Kotarou, come and do your final job...
- Don't Do it - Don't do it - Don't do it - Don't do it - **Do it** - Don't do it - Don't do it
Kotarou stabs Kagari... *anime inserts boob grope*

Rewrite last ep tomorrow... It doesn't feel real. This anime was shit but I don't want it to end yet... Oh well, Rewrite will never end until we see Oppai Ending OVA (they WILL do it, won't they? I mean, it's the PERFECT ova o/)

By the way,did anyone see the new Rewrite LINE stickers? Look at how handsome is my Sakuya...

Anyway what'd you think of this season and the anime overall? Wanna leave some comments about it? I mean, we've been watching this shit since almost a year ago so you gotta feel at least a tiny bit empty about it right now, no?

If this is the Rewrite+ ending then... it suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks. Original Rewrite had a pretty bittersweet ending, this one it felt like they were trying too hard to make it a happy ending and failed... I mean, yeah, it was emotional but it's pretty bad.... Ugh, and I mean, come on! Why the hell'd you skip best scenes and rush the ones you kept? Seriously?! And what about Nagai and Kotarou's parents... Why?!

Tennouji said:
Well, it seems we got some anime original ending and not the Rewrite+ one.

At least, I prefer that ending instead of Rewrite+ one but of course nothing can beat the original one.

Thai777 said:

Wait isn't that the Rewrite+ ending? The anime one.

Kitsu-nee said:
I have to admit that speaking only about the last scene, anime one was probably my favourite lol. At least Kagari FINALLY got her ending :3 Some sweetness after rather bitter Terra sounds pretty good imo. Although I understand that for some people it's too naive or something.

Rodielx said:


I totally get you, happy endings are always better and I really like it when they happen even if they come with a little lack of logic in the story. But in here everything can be explained so it isn't naive at all.

Rodielx said:


Rewrite Original ending: Kotarou is reborn as a familiar but doesn't remember anything at all about the girls prior to the Moon route, the Moon route or Terra route. His head is practically blank aside from a humanoid familiar's standard intelligence, the girls input orders and a vague instinctual sense of his past self. His appearance is quite different but still resembles his past self a little. He takes the girls to the moon and there they find Kagari in her plant form, what happens after they find her isn't shown but from a CG or two we see before that, she may have gone back to her human form and be with them, Kotarou may or may not remember her but Kagari most probably does. After that all is speculation.

Rewrite+ new ending: The moment Kotarou is reborn as a familiar he is greatly surprised that the five girls are in front of him, he remembers them all, including absolutely everything that happened in each of their routes, this Kotarou's memories are a combination of the memories of all the Kotarous from the branch routes, the Moon route and the Terra route. He decides to keep this hidden as the girls only have their memories of the Terra route and he'd just confuse them and decides to live a new life as their familiar. His appearance is the same as Rewrite original ending. When he tells them he can take them to the moon he says in his inner monologue that there is still one girl that isn't here and that he will go fetch her so that they can all be together. Then he acts like the leader of the Occult club and takes them to the moon. After that is all exactly the same as Original ending.

Rewrite anime ending: Well we all saw this lol... As we don't see into Kotarou's mind like in the VN we don't know if he remembers the girls or not as the lines in Rewrite original and + are mostly the same if we don't read the monologue. Everything is mostly the same until that last scene where Kagari is instantly in her human form and kisses with Kotarou. Judging by Kotarou remembering the promise then the anime probably follows more or less the same ending as the Rewrite+ one but adds that last scene, which in my opinion isn't too illogical or anything.

Hope that helps especially the people that don't know Rewrite+ ending and I hope my english didn't screw up somewhere xD

I haven't seen the episode but tbh I've seen MOST of the tweets this week and yesterday with Happy Emojis... yeah it doesn't tell much since I can't speak Japanese at all. But a lot of them had either happy emojis, crying out of happiness emojis... at least for the series generally for S2. More apparent in the finale so. It may say positive note? Although some complained with a "..." but more towards showing Rewrite+'s screeny.

But you are right that S1 was disliked at the end by the Japanese reception for a lot of people, even tho others did liked it (at THAT time I used Binge translater... NEVER AGAIN)
