An interesting episode
Looks like things are moving towards the endgame then. And Kei finally gets to see Souma in the real this time eh. Its kind of nice seeing Souma cook with Kei. So it seems that Masamune hated abilities even as a child then. The insight into Masamune's childhood was interesting as it allowed us to see what motivates him for his plan and how it turned him into the person that he is today. Still it was strange seeing little Masamune bear no grief at his dad's fate though. But this story did well to allow Kei and Souma to determine why Masamune hates abilities so much. Souma really knows how to surprise Kei doesn't she lol. But this was a good opportunity for Kei to get some questions of his chest i guess. Hmm Souma's answers really are surprising in that she see's herself separate from the old Souma. It was indeed a gamble on her part though. But her answers really are having a profound effect on Kei though. A swampman actually is a pretty good description for this Souma though. So Kei is blaming Souma for not telling him her plan earlier eh. This talk really is important for both of them and its kinda sad seeing the effects that its having as well. Souma's actions until now was to secure Kei's happiness and ensure that he and Haruki will end up together eh. A difficult step indeed. To inherit such a responsibility from the other self realy is a hard burden to bear though.

Despite knowing that the enemies plan is far ahead its nice to see that Kei is determined in his efforts to stop it and maintain the use of abilities. Well Souma did say goodbye to him two years ago before vanishing so i guess saying goodbye now again is a bad thing to say as it invokes bad memories. At last Eri and Masamune are here to seal Haruki's abilities. Rewind memory sure is an interesting ability. To find your hair instantly regrown to how you were two years ago though that will be a shock for Haruki when she wakes up. Hmm to think that Kei had predicted that Eri will be aiding Masamune though. But with Eri's infuriation with him i think there is a high chance that she will help you if you ask nicely. Thats quite the elaborate place to house his parents. Though he hated his fathers beliefs its nice that he still loved his parents dearly. So his mother turning into stone was stopped by the freezing of time eh. But it looks like this won't be a happy reunion for her though given Masamune's plan. Next episode will help set the stage for the final then it seems.

After all the events up to this episode, I don't know why this anime could get a below 7 score here. This should get an 8 at the very least.

Although, yes people tastes are different, and this anime also gets more interesting after several episodes. But still, why???


I've noticed a lot of people either can't follow the storyline or they were expecting something more shounen centered like My Hero Academia. The premise is a little misleading though, so I'll give them that. It says "powers" right there, after all.

Oh well, people with different tastes that want to sit back and relax to some shounen action rather than get thoughtful about some seinen. Can't help it.

Damn, Soma fixing chicken curry for Kei knowing Haruki was going to suggest having chicken curry the next night was a low ball.

And woah I wounldnt have guessed the antagonist guy going far enough to take Haruki's memory all the way back before meeting Kei.

It's actually pretty easy, Kei will just have to make Haruki trust him again like what he did in episode 1, that'll be easy for Kei even more so now coz she knows Haruki too well now at this point. From then a simple reset will also revert the reverted Haruki coz she ain't like that 3 days ago


Or make Haruki see something sad, then she resets on her own




The problem after that would be, what then? He'd still have to go around trying to stop Masamune's plot all over again. I don't think Masamune would stop his plan just because Kei found out about it. Though to be honest I'm sort of interested in what he would have to do if he really did have to try and stop those incidents from happening all over again.

I get the feeling that why Masamune is messing with Haruki is to delay her reset to a time where all those "incidents" have been set into stone or something, so maybe 3 days after all those things have happened. If he manages to delay Kei's revival of Haruki's abilities for just 3 days, then he fulfills his wish to instigate an ability wipe of the town, and all that's left is to do something "permanent" to Kei..

I was wondering the same. You can't really keep blaming "mc's personalities" at this point at all.

wow this was by far one of my favorite episodes, all the talk was really nice and her body was nice too lol

some sad moments when she was crying, some really nice moments like
"lots of love were put into making the curry"
or
"you're not allowed to say sayonara...because of the one time 2 years ago..." "eh...then let's meet again =)"
or
"you're the only one who truly understands me, i can't fool you even when i can fool *masamune and the other girl who detects lies* "
or
"you will be able to succeed, you're my protagonist after all" (probably my favorite moment in this anime so far lmao)

i kinda disliked the last part, but then again i think i still like Haruki with the long hair more, even if i'm now used to the short one...this is hard haha

Because the option of doing a review or voting should be blocked at least until the anime is finished, to avoid those people who start watching all anime of a season and drops 3/4 of them based on the first episodes to judge too early.

(This obviously wouldn't apply to animes like Dragon Ball Detective Conan, Naruto, One Piece, Fairy Tail etc, only to those it is known they'll be short)

I totally agree

Anime with no story at all like Gamers and Tsurezure Children are getting higher score that this show

Unless the sub that I'm watching is being mistranslated, I'm pretty sure that the current Sumire is not projecting her hate towards Haruki but to her other dead self for being selfish. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I really don't understand all Sumire's choices from the 2nd episode.

I think I kinda hate her, just like her copy. Why did she have to put Kei in Haruki's arm ?
Although she liked him this much !! I am glad there's finally some explications, but that was hurtful for everybody...

I also think that Kei would have been better with Sumire, she makes him strong but well, I guess that the fact that she sees the future made her make those choices :'(

as everyone guessed, Sumire killed herself in order to become the swampman, so she can bypass the lie detector.

Sumire blame on her former self, which is very sad. she deserve more love from Kei.

Haruki reverted to the old one, which is put her relationship with Kei back to square one.

the unexpected thing is, Urachi's parent are frozen in a coffin this entire time.

The voice acting during the crying scene of Soma is really subpar, ruined the emotional impact of the scene for me. Tough scene to voice act in but performance isn't up to standard.

Curious to see where this go, Haruki has gone back to the days before she met Kei, perhaps she will return to normal by resetting, assuming Oka Eri doesn't take away her ability to reset.

Can someone explain what they did to wipe out all the abilities from sakurada? I didn't get how they were deleted. Also, what was it that ukawa did in the previous episode with her ability? Was it done just to showcase it as another incident of ability going out of control by making cloud across entire sakurda disappear. Thanks in advance.

Honestly, this is one of the few times I've seen an anime and felt somewhat uncomfortable. Kei and Sumire hanging out borderline feels more like cheating than if they had sex. The scenes of them together; cooking curry and her showering just seemed filled with sexual tension.

I'm not really sure how Sumire taking a shower was a result of her knowing she'd cry though. It's not like the sound of the shower drowned out her crying, she was still talking with Kei throughout. Plus, showering doesn't make your eyes not puffy from crying? That was a weird justification for the shower.

So all Urachi really accomplished was making it so that Haruki is able to reset without Kei's consent. I doubt Eri will seal Haruki's ability, so things will probably end up being at least somewhat chaotic if Haruki is running around resetting on a whim during this final confrontation.

Also; so this is what the deal with the "small stone" questions were before. It was sizing up Kei and comparing him to Urachi.

So the last arc is 5 episodes long and is a continuation for this arc after all.

Amazing episode. That Sumire and Kei part was great, however this whole swampman part is annoying. This reminded me how much I want Kei to end up with Sumire and not Misora. Speaking of Sumire, didn't she say how Eri made her forget about the ability? I really hope nothing is going to happen with her in the next episode, going home alone.

Also I guess this is why they haven't used the reset, but now that Misora is out their time is very limited. I'm suprised Kei didn't think about this outcome.

Great ep.. Now things are starting to get serious. (also keep your hands off of Misora you SOB!)

Nice shower scene too.. Sumire has a nice bod and a great..... plot! lol Just wish she wasn't so quick to throw her life away.

next ep seems like it's going to be hard on MC if it goes down like I think.
