| I'm just wondering: what age is third year middle school? These guys look massive haha |
 |
| That ED is top tier. |
| So proud of takemichi for finally growing some balls.....although its kinda obvious how the match will turn out next ep T.T he has my respect |
| Really enjoying this so far. A couple of minor quibbles though. The fact Takemichi looks too young as an adult. He looks younger then Naoto And the fact Naoto was so quick to correctly guess how the time travel worked. |
 |
| The way it started, for a second I thought I was re-watching episode 1. When Naoto said that Takemichi can only go back to that specific date, I kinda thought he would ask Takemichi to live his past all over again for 12 years... Takemichi just went and straightforwardly asked about Sano and Kisaki to the most problematic people, just how dumb can he be.  Takemichi kinda gave off Saitama vibes here but then he lost by one punch from someone else XD If Hinata is 26 then that would be the same for Takemichi, he so doesn't look like he's 26, even Naoto looks older than him. |
| OP and ED were pog, nice to see the anime adaptation is doing good for an adaptation. 2 minute recap was eeeeh though |
phantomfandom said: Is this the first time that yankee anime integrated with time traveling? Just yankee anime lone is very rare nowadays, and this also has sci-fi element to it. Plus a little bit of detective genre where undercover cop is infiltrate in evil organization, a troupe usually see in Hong Kong movies. One comment told me to observe how Takemichi's brain also revert back to his teenage, which is true! He may have information from the future, but he isn't adult in teenage body, he's just normal teenage. To say it more simpler, this is the opposite effect of ReLIFE anime. And now this is Takemichi's path to greatness. If he succeed, not only he'll save his girlfriend's life, he also prevent many other lives lost from this gang. And since this gang will never be able to do bad things in the future, you could say that he also turn gangsters into good citizen! But it's not gonna be easy task, and since it involve time traveling, I kinda expect some very crazy twists, for example, could the cop that killed by the gang the future Takemichi, just my wild guess, but it's kinda twist that I expected. I don't think that's a possibility seeing as Hinata's brother told him he knew the past investigator in the case meaning that if it was Takemichi then there would be 2 versions of himself out in the same timeline or it could be true and some crazy stuff us going down but seeing as only 2 episides are out, I think it's best I don't shut down your theory just yet. |

| Damn what a classic shounenish motivation Takemichi got there, and very simp, imho. But the power looked very strange. Why its should stop at the twelve years ago, even at the exact same day? Its may also related to his relations with that Manji subordinate gang too. If not, the time might not be the exact like that, right? Someone may transfer the power through Takemichi in order to destroyed the Manji gang to that present victorious era, from the past. Since he was the one whose nearly possible to get rid of the past mistake to happened in the first place. You know, when Takemichi slipped away, someone touch him, or shall i say handshake him, and triggered the event. However, its obviously not the easy route. Full of hurts, and a lot of pains. But surely Takemichi got a nice character development there, like a typical shounen show. Perfect! He even get an objective to be done. Tbh, if the element of the show is not get an additional gangsta theme, the show can be look pretty lame. But, with those new theme, its kinda refreshing, at least from my understanding. So, yeah, left aside the time leap power mystery first, lets see unbeliavable huge middle schooler kick mc ass! |
 Hide and seek is the best offline games on this fatamorgana-called-world-thing. Please comment nicely. I am newbie here. I'm level  on mal-badges. View my badges  |
| I loved episode 2...he gonna get his ass beat in episode 3 probably (unless he somehow learned how to fight) |
| "he has it big as a cactus but he won't let go of my head and I puke on his cock bitch" - Boy by Fishball |
| even though it was just the 2nd ep i was waiting and hoping for him to finally take a step forward which he did at the end of the ep looking forward to next ep |
| "one step at a time" |
| I have my issues with this anime already. The time travel aspect is not only convenient as all hell (just shake hands with Naoto and bam). Hinata hasn't had really any screen time to tell us why we should care about her... She was MC's only girlfriend and is Naoto's sister. Okay? And? Slow pacing and MC being a wishy-washy moron is bit off putting too. |
 |
| the pacing is a bit slow. I imagined the introduction of the other 2 'main' characters happening at the end of this episode |
| Ok brave move wtf I'm eager to see what will happen to him |
| I think the pacing is fine so far but the logic and atmosphere is a bit mediocre. MC isn't the best, either, but hopefully that opinion changes in episode 3. My main problem right now is how dumb these two boys are at trying to save this girl. If some dude told me - with conviction - my sister would die on a specific date I'd probably watch her around said date to make sure she didn't go out doing anything stupid. My guess is the brother kept his promise but leniently because up until she actually died there wasn't concrete proof of the time travel. But then he explains his plan and it's so convoluted. . . it seems like a plan you'd make up AFTER finding out she dies anyway after trying the more obvious solutions - which is to warn HER that she should watch out or stay inside on that date, or at least her brother? Like, go back to him and be like hey. . . I warned you, but it didn't work. Work HARDER to keep her away from this place she's supposed to die at so there's no possibility of it happening. Instead it goes from 0 to 100 really quick which is a bit jarring. Makes me question if the brother knows more (I'm predicting she's specifically being targeted by the gang because of some connection the leader has to MC from middle school), or he has some ulterior motive. Oh well, this is one I picked up for a fun ride so unless it gets even dumber I'll continue to watch. Production value is really good. |
| Hmm, things are starting to get pretty interesting; definitely excited to see Takemichi against Kiyomasa! |
| The premise of this anime is more unique than what I expected. I'm really liking it so far, characters are interesting, soundtrack is nice and the story seems to be developing in a good way. Can't wait to see more of this! |
 |
| This anime just keeps getting better! |
| Those bullies definitely do not look like middle schoolers. Nor do they talk like ones |

|
| I believe the term "knuckle up" fits perfectly for the end of the episode. Yeah nothing is going to change if you keep running away. |
 |
Takemichi's mother and how crazy he is, he goes straight to the king with the horde. ๐๐๐ฅ that gives the fight, however we know drja the result. But it's still great when you see that sheep. ๐ณ๐ฅ ♥ ๏ธ |
| It turns out that the handshake is the trigger. I am excited and excited to wait for the OP to come. |
My Candies: |
| The absolute behemoth balls on this man. Face the "king"! |
 |
| I'm sitting here wondering how MC became a yankee/school gangster when he can barely fight?I was hoping he was stronger than he looked but he's gotten his ass handed to him multiple times. Also his girlfriend is adorable. How tf did he land such a great girlfriend when he's such a fucking loser? |
| ่ญใ- |
| I hope Takemichi wins his fight but I don't know how he can defeat that guy now. The next episode is going to be amazing! |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. ๆฅๆฌ |
| Bold move on Takemichi,s part but let’s be honest he’s probably not winning that fight but he might earn Kiomasa’s respect and that would help him in the long run |
 |
| This chapter was good and the ending is great. |
| Dumb to straight up ask to meet one of the two leaders when they perhaps haven't met yet, but I guess Naoto's two days of infodumping was probably too much for him. Gotta say Takemichi got some huge balls there at the end to ask that |
 |
| oh so the opening band was official hige dandism! no wonder why it's a banger and takemichi asks a duel with the leader, that's where the story became better ig and the gang was more brutal than i thought |
| Well Hina does look like a nice girl so I'm with Takemichi here. Also nice save from him. I felt bad for Takuya, he looks so fragile. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| Well he's already back in time to protect his girlfriend xD Takemichi was more manly at the end but I expect him to get beat pretty fast to be honest |
 |
| Takemichi is such a retard, I hate him. Also Naoto figuring out the way the time travel works with just one instance of it to go by, is really stupid. Really not liking this so far. |
| The king vs the slave?! Takemichi.. that's a bit too much man :P |
| I like the character development that Takamichi's going through, he knows he has to get uncomfortable to break past what's supposed to be inevitable! I like the OP and ED a lot! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Ah, so a handshake with Naoto is how he can time travel. I was worried he had to jump in front of a train to go to the past. The only information that can be transferred back in everything in Takamichi's head. I was surprised that he and Hina were dating but he wasn't on a first-name basis with her already. So I'm guessing he's going to tough it out, Kiyomasa gets bored of punching and respects him for not running away. That or is friends pull a trick like stabbing Kiyomasa. |

 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| The OP is an ABSOLUTE BANGER!!! I love the bass that plays during the opening, the visuals of the OP itself aren't anything to write home about, but it's by no means bad, I'm sure as I know more of the characters shown in the OP, I'll grow to love the OP even more than just the music itself. The ED is about the same as the OP, love the melodic vocals that play, though I am also pretty eager to see Takemichi being dressed in that all-black outfit and start acting like a badass. Oh, it seems that I don't need to wait long to see him being a badass! After returning 12 years to the past once more through the handshake gesture with Naoto, what happens? Takemichi got severely beaten up all through the day. enough to compel him to abandon his mission entirely, but upon interacting with Hinata yet again and seeing her antics and their charming relationship together, what can he do besides accept the mission. Welp, he eventually made a move on the mission somewhat by challenging the big shot on a straight-up duel, yeah... Be prepared to experience a world of pain I guess lol. |
