| This was some of the saddest scenes I have ever watched in my life. The mom sacrificing herself for her son and even while being crushed by the rubble, she still tried to sing to him and comfort him. And then Cheng Xiaoshi remembering his mom and his fear of being alone in the dark. This shit hurt so bad I teared up. The animation, the direction and the OST were on point as well. I think this job is understandably making Xiaoshi really emotional, maybe he really needs a break after this case. |
Cried a bit this episode. Must be very hard for Cheng Xiaoshi to relieve and feel the loss of a loved one, even with such powers by your side. |
| I cried so much during this episode! I loved it when you got the flashbacks to what the message was to everyone, but my heart just broke even more when we didn't get to hear what he said to his mum!! But they kinda changed the future because they saved the camera, witch was a really nice touch. |

| This episode made me fall in love with link click! Such a beautiful eps with too many emotions |
 |
| Goddamn that was an incredible episode. I cried like a baby. It was so sad. I absolutely love this show. |

| It's been a while since I watched something that emotional... too hard to not cry, 10/10 episode |
 |
| no, i DEFINITELY did NOT CRY during this episode... 2 times |
 |
| JEsus christ my dudes. I was not expecting to cry this episode but it happened :') |
| Teared up this episode, fantastic. Sadly, he wasn't able to save the mom. But the future changed a bit, so the mission overall succeeded. And finally in the end the police came (because of the first case..) The butterfly effect in this time travel anime is really weak but still interesting with the nods and stuff. |

| What an absolutely amazing episode. This show is one of the best I have seen recently..... And damn, the ED slaps. |
 |
| Well, no one believed him so he couldn't save anyone even his mom. Even if the future wasn't changed, he saved the camera. |

| This episode was an emotional rollercoaster. This is just getting better and better. I was on the brink of tears. Amazing episode. |
    ═════════════════════════════ You're going to be all right. You just stumbled over a stone in the road. It means nothing. Your goal lies far beyond this. Doesn't it? I'm sure you'll overcome this. You'll walk again... soon. ═════════════════════════════  |
| I was supposed to cry in this episode. Most of the time I really can't handle the parents dying stuff. It kills me inside out. And this episode really presented in a marvelously way. But for some reason i just didn't get as emotional as i should've got. |
 |
| This episode broke my tear ducts. Cheng Xiaoshi's superpower is a blessing and a curse no matter how you look at it. |

| WAHHHHHH CRIED MY FUCKING EYES OUT |
SomeGuyWithHair said: Holy fuck that hit me on so many places. I didn't cry but I wish I did. I rarely get emotional over anime. This... this is something else. Yah same, I’m never really emotional when it comes to watching or reading things but this really hit close for me. |
| What an episode, and of course what a cliffhanger. This show has me hooked. |
| HOLY FUCK I've never cried this much in Ep 5 of an anime before! I've been watching this one with two friends and we all just lost it halfway through the episode and that mum's monologue plus that lullaby scene at the end, holy shit, I completely and utterly lost it. This anime is incredible wow |
| This destroyed me |
| Inhales oxygen |
| Yeah, I'm pretty much in tears. |
| well that was sad, i cried ): but i can understand each of their viewpoints,, if i was in cheng xiaoshi's situation with these real people i would want to save them too, but lu guang is right that it's important to keep the past the same |
| That was so amazing, I rarely cry but I almost shed a tear ;-;. An extremely heartbreaking episode |
| Watching this episode make me remember of watched the news about this earthquake in my television.So sad. |
 |
| Nooo.. no...... that was emotional. The suspense and build up and the sneak peeks of where everyone was when it hit. I felt so much. Oh mom :( |
| Did anyone else think it was similar to Your Name a bit?? BTW great episode definitely cried |
| watch this chinese anime they said. it will be fun they said -__- |
| see you, space cowperson . . . |
| Wait so what, now I'm confused again. You CAN save people who are already dead in the present? Because Guang Lu definitely said he'd try to help save the mom. And is Xiaoshi mad that he didn't mention he was being sent to the 2008 earthquake zone (thus triggering his own memories of losing his own parents), or is he mad that Guang Lu told him that he CAN'T save dead people, but when you can in fact, apparently, can? Because surely he would now try to save his own parents, but he doesn't, so I guess you can NOT save people who are already dead?? Which is it?? Because Guang Lu makes it out to be that it is possible, saying he lied to Xiaoshi to "keep everything the same"- implying that it is indeed possible to save people, but hid that fact from him to prevent him from trying anything that might disrupt the fucking space time continuum. Actually yeah no I'm probably just looking too much into it. Xiaoshi is just upset that Guang Lu didn't tell him about the earthquake so that he wouldn't go and try to save everyone, just simply give the messages and then jet, okay I guess I get it then. And then he gets further upset and goes as far as to socking Guang Lu in the face because he gave false instructions in how to save the mother, when in fact he was trying to keep events the same; meaning she had to die regardless. Damn, I get his emotion now, since he feels the emotions of his hosts. He also has the same emotions since he also lost his mother, so it must've been doubly hard on him in that moment. Dang. So was Chen Xiao dude always married, or did Xiaoshi do something that changed his future and gave him a wife and child? Because the way they revealed the wedding ring sure seemed like it had some significance to it. Or maybe they just wanted to show that he was now living a happy life despite the trauma he faced in the past, and even though he has moved on, still holds onto pictures of the past for memory's sake. Why he wanted to send those messages to his past friends I don't know why as it won't really change anything, but it was probably just a way for him to personally get regrets off his own chest. So anyway, police guy just came in the door. ARE WE COMING BACK TO EMMA?? Frick though too bad she's already dead. Chen Xiao's crush also is probably deceased as well right? Man, once an anime that's not even technically an anime gives us some waifus who are actually like real girls, they die. Dammit |

| I feel the worst for Xiao Shi ಥ﹏ಥ it’s so hard having to always carry out their clients’ requests when he feels all the emotions & feelings they had Also the episode title is 告别 right. Why is it translated weirdly. It means bidding farewell/goodbye. The title card showing right as the paramedics took both Chen Xiao and his dad away from his mum parallels when she said bye to them as they leave their home. So sad ಥ﹏ಥ |
 ꕤ but i’ll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there — the day we all searched for just one thing ꕤ |
| I don't know, man... all this really feels like emotional manipulation to me. OK episode overall. |
