Fuck! It's just... Perfect!
Jun Maeda with the musical pieces that he used in this episode it showed off and he made it my favorite anime episode from last week.
Besides, the comedy was not bad, I laughed a lot in this episode, especially with the five minutes of the three shooting attempts of Sora's club summer project.

Batteru!

I thought the boxing scene was a Hajime No Ippo reference, but it was a Rocky reference. I'm really rooting for IZANAMIxMC and HINAxMC as well. Either one is fine by me. The whole omniscient thing is starting to make sense little by little.

2nd episode and we're already getting filler episodes. At least to me that felt like a filler episode for the most part. I hope they don't just keep the Hina being a god thing on the backburner.

Hm, not much happened this episode — just reinforcement of the character dynamics shown in episode 1, a very brief establishment of MC’s family, and some quietly worrisome foreshadowing. Still having fun with it though, but I hope for more of a direction to next episode (the ending seems to indicate that, so...). The pacing is absolutely going to spike a la Charlotte at this rate; it’ll probably be sooner rather than later?



Probably could’ve just claimed that bingo last time but I felt like waiting till it was very clearly established. Nothing really requires explanation — Izanami is Kotomi 2 and the films and ‘everyone has a godly name except Hina’ bit both already got repeated multiple times. I’m defining ‘supernatural bullshit’ as something ridiculous that just breaks the rules of the show/doesn’t really make any sense/is completely unexplained by the end, so I haven’t struck it for something that’s in the premise.

I assume the guy who keeps showing up is gonna be Yota’s best friend or whatever a la Hinata from Angel Beats and glasses dude from Charlotte, but the show hasn’t developed him at all. I also assume the new girl will probably either fall into the Yusa/Fuko/etc moe archetype or the Kyou/Misa/etc tsundere archetype as well, although maybe Hina’s falling into more of that moe/‘little sister’ vibes — she’s kinda halfway between that and the Yurippe/Tomori commanding aspects.

They really went all in with the names.
Gave me a lot of P4 vibes actually.
I wonder if we'll see an Izanagi who will be the rival or an Ameterasu.
Also interesting to see Izanami as the tsukkomi hahahaha

Love the music as expected.
Jun-sensei showing off his comedy until half-way through where the tragedy begins...

Finally.... Ayaneru seems to be having so much fun here hahahahahaha.

10/10

Comedy is a hit or miss, Hina is starting to be very annoying. I don't really feel Jun Maeda or Key on this anime.

Huh? The comedy part is really typical for Key. Not to mention that almost every Key story has start like this.


I agree. This is quite stereotypical for Key works.


animejas said:
Still feels weird that Lia isn't doing the OP for this show given Lia did the OP for many Key shows previously. Nagi Yanagi is good though and I prefer her so no complaints there.

I still find Hina unbearable along with the comedy but Izanami's solid atleast. I do like her.

I'll enjoy the cringey comedy though while it lasts before it goes Indian soap opera mode with levels of drama.


The studio is PA Works and Yanagi has worked with them multiple times so no surprise there.

Armageddon reference : I liked that one !

Good episode, just the end seemed to be darker, especially with the "days until the end of the world count".

I really love the opening, it's just perfect
Also, i curious about the flower shown in the op, i search a bit and i'm not an expert but the flower resembles much of anemone flower which means it could be bad or good, but it's said persistence or perserverance.
The good meaning is protection against evil and ill wishes.
The bad meaning is bad luck or ill omens.

Idk i might be wrong (cmiiw) about the flower or digging to much, but i really enjoy the anime and the opening song, jun maeda you did it again.


Flowers are usually meant to represent something. They could be anemones, but I think they look more similar to evening primroses because of the stamen in the center. Though that's probably not it either... Would appreciate it anyone could identify the flowers in the last part of the OP.

For real i hope i can see anything that hint this anime will be the saddest anime by jun maeda. I only got that episode one when hina herself in blank white room and say so this is it or stuff. Well on this ep 2 we still got alot of silly jokes but i hope again i got some tearing moments

Hina's even more hilarious. God making films at the expense of everyone else? getting Haruhi flashbacks. lol those 3 film references, lots of nostalgia for Armageddon.

Imouto in trouble. check
kuudere. check
piano. check
kuudere playing piano. check, Kanade's here now.
illness sad backstory. check
beautiful OP + Yanagi. check

So a day in ep1, and 5 days in ep2 for all the filming & Youta learning piano. MC's a very fast learner for a complete noob. Narukami family's great fun and keeps close ties to gods at least in name.

Ugh. I really wanted to like this show, but Hina's bratty tantrums and the shallow comedy have made me decide to drop it. I can't stand Hina's constant whining!! And Izanami just seems like an over-the-top Rei Ayanami caricature than a person. I mean, all she does is stand around and comment on the charcaters acting stupid for no reason.

The music is pretty good. And the Rocky and Edward Scissorhands references were great XD Though comedy is always solid in Key works. Now the question is simply whether the story will be good...

Fairly enjoyable.

Did she want him to kiss her after that piano song? She was leaning forward... Curious how her character turns out.

What's with this god-name family? What's their secret? Hmm.

So far this series really has some amazing scenery and i'm loving the eye designs of Hina and Izanami (although I'm guessing they were hell to colour for each cut).

Did actually think that that first movie seemed similar to Deep Impact, and then Youta confirmed it with "it's totally plagarized!" xD ...to which they followed up with Rocky and Edward Scissorhands.

Piano scene was absoulutely beautiful and am glad it was original, because as soon as Izanami started playing it perfectly i had a hunch she'd say it was actually a song from "..." considering Hina's track record until then :P

Nice Edward Scissorhands reference. I'm impressed Yota's dad went along with Odin's spiel, but doesn't he have a job to go to. After multiple failed attempts its nice to see Yota sort of succeed at the paino scene where he made Izanami smile.

I find it hilarious how the MC gets goofy around his imouto.  A given in a Maeda anime he makes, in that someone has to be a siscon, hahahaha 

Given, the imouto is a cutie.

I wasn’t expecting to see anime Edward Scissorhands

I’m still curious however about the lack of hesitation by which Yoga’s parents accept Hina into their home. She otherwise just appears obnoxious and delusional so she must be known to them in some way.
