| "This is Iwasawa's replacement?" This...Yui please!!! =P Loved the episode! Pacing was perfect, drama wasn't overdone, comedy was funny, animation was amazing....can't really say anything bad about it other than that I want to know more about Iwasawa ^.^. I was skeptical at first about fitting a Key-esque plot in 13 episodes with this large of a cast and so much to explain but I can actually see it happening now, and working well at that o.0. |

chinlamp said: Now that I think about it, Iwasawa was probably the best animated character. You can tell that a lot more of the budget went into those concert scenes than any other part of the show. That animation level is gonna be missed by me. Ah, you're so right!! the motion and flow of the characters while in that was great! but there are other parts which have excellent animation. but all in all, this was great! I think it's great so far, cuz it exceeded my expectations, which were high to begin with. I'm SO gonna miss Iwasawa! She was really one of my favorites in the show so far! But something's up with Angel as well. remember, she's all like, when looking at the GirlsDeMo poster '...it's almost like i'm the bad guy...' which means she isn't exactly looking for a fight, i think. she has some sort of story, for sure, too. |
 |
| I expect to see more people do an "Iwasawa".. Sad.. |
*Hand Sonic Version Nine!* | You really need a new sig, Nine. | |
| I guess she vanished because she has completed her dream that she's not able to realise before she died. So this afterlife world, people may get reborn (vanish) when they have accomplish what they wanted. This is just what I think =P. |
 |
| Lame episode, but at least better than that horrible first one. Iwasawa vanishing was awkwardly positioned, and myself couldn't feel any emotion at all. Blah. |
AidanAK47 said: However the biggest flaw is these sob story backgrounds. It may be better to hint at these things rather than spell it out. I for one think these things lack impact because of the level of unbelievably to them. I mean come on. A single strike from her parents that she got in childhood comes back to kill her? A car accident or random disease would have been more believable. Cheap. But believable. How is that unbelievable compared to random disease or car accident? A strike with enough force from a glass bottle that's full enough can do some pretty good damage to your brain which could cause trouble down the road if left untreated. |

She said that her parent were fighting each other since her childhood but the wound she got was due to a recent dispute, she tough she had nothing big and she went to sleep, the next day when she went to work she didn't feel well and collapsed. At least it's how I see it. |

| I loved this episode...it was sad. |

 In spoiler my anime list for now. |

| Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile. Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(ﾟДﾟщ) Nope™, probably not. |
| Poor Iwasawa TwT ... |
| awesome music as alwayezz |
 |
| This whole damn series seems so bland and forced, so far I AM NOT enjoying it. HOWEVER, there are some aspects that interest me and because it is KEY, I will continue to watch......for now |
| Concert was <3 |
 |
| Iwasawa's song was freaking beautiful. |
| This was a really interesting episode........ |
 |
| This was a really interesting episode........ |
|
| I really enjoyed this episode, beautiful singing from a beautiful character ^_^ |
 |
| I like how the Genius Christ beat the idiot with simple math symbols Key Soda!! Iwasawa returned from her coma state? |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| The first Main-Charcter disapeard, I guess she will not be the only one. |
| That's bullshit! Pi is exactly 3!!!!!!  |
| I think this anime will make us again cry..Like Air,Kanon,Clannad..^^ so sad about this episode..:( |

| Engrish. This animu has tons of it. Girls Dead Monster. I lol'd. |
 |
| I liked this episode and I am beginning to enjoy the series. Iwasawa's backstory was great, but I think it would have been better if she was erased after we got to know her even better and actually got attached to her character. But it was sad, nonetheless. I actually enjoy GirlsDeMo, haha. Haha, "No Memory Boy!" The truth is, I really want to know Otonashi's story. Does everybody agree? Is TK trying to learn English or something, or does he already know English? ;) |
     |
| ------------------------------ -- -- Fucking hell... Iwasa.. vanished.. Sad.. .. T_t.. and what will happen to their band.? T_t... |
 |
| Great episode all in all, I think its getting better every time but why did Iwasawa have to vanish : ( I liked her character. Hope she's gone to a better place. |
  |
| Starting to like Angel Beats! more and more after each episode and I think this one's gonna deserve a 2nd season for being only 13 episodes long |
| Noo!! Why did Iwasa have to disappear, dammit!? I was starting to like her too. This episode...was sad. Damn you Angel! It's always the good ones..:C |
 |
| Loved this episode, and animation~ Iwasawa was cool, too bad she dissapears =( |
 |
| I wish they'd hurry up with the main story. Didn't feel much for Iwasawa and her precious guitar. |
 |
| So she accepted her death... 'kay. So she's not in the ending theme anymore, I'm guessing? |

| Loved the new OP theme!! "Our weakness is that we are stupid..." LMAO!! Was there a nod to Howl's Moving Castle in Otonashi's imagination? Iwasawa's memories were so sad. Where did she disappear to? I'm thinking Angel may not really be the bad guy here. |
 |
| The previous episode was better although this is pretty good too. :D |
| Noo! I didn't want Iwasawa to vanish just like that.She's by far the female character that I like the best.She was soo cool T_T Her past is sad and I do hope she comes back. |
 Love is filled with mystery |
| omg so many replies @.@.. oh well, just wanted to say/post..  |
| What the hell happened to Iwasawa-san? How the fuck did she disappear? All she did was she tried to her guitar from the npc teachers and she got erased? How in the davy jone's locker did that happen? I'm going to miss her especially her voice since right after I found out her past, I kinda started to like her. :( Okay the information that they found out was really interesting. Also, what I found interesting was that each and everyone's past was really sad. I wonder what happened to that guy with no memories. (Damn forgot his name.) |
| Iwasawa-san... ;_; This was a good episode. Iwasawa seemed like a pretty cool character, too bad she had to go. Out of the character backgrounds we were given for this show, hers is one of my favorites. I also loved her voice actor (Miyuki Sawashiro). One of the reasons I watched this show was for her voice, too bad I won't get to hear it anymore :P |
 |
| this show is retarded |
| So, people who fulfill their wishes vanish? Probably they go to another place, like heaven. Anyway, this was the best episode so far. I ,Liked the insert songs better than the 1st ep, i liked te new characters Yui and Christ. |
| A sad episode. I had to wacth it with my damn annoying cousins, though. >.> I like the blond chick who tripped the guy. I think Angel is attracted to calm music...not flashy music. I may be wrong. |
| Awww..I didn't want her to disappear! And just when she was starting to grow on my she disappears?! Angel is attracted to...calm music? I doubt that was her intention...Or maybe! |
| Iwasawa ;_____; No! |
 |
| i felt so sad but happy that she got her wish, sang her song and maybe she went to God who knows x) but i actually cried my heart out for her because it was that emotional! i loved this episode it touched my heart very deeply when i saw this episode and heard that song it was really magical actually, and the passion she had for music :3 |
   |
| Iwasawa had potential to be a great character , but you know.. she's gone now. |
