It seems I also have to pay more attention to details, as I didn't even realize that the Yuu we've been seeing doesn't have a shadow or that she didn't age at all. ^^; In any case, I think this show has improved a lot compared to what I thought in the beginning.


RRRRAH Ergo Proxy did the same thing I should be expecting it by now ! Fucking shadows :(

edit : I'm rewatching with decent subs and I noticed the first shot you get of Yuu in episode 1 is her foot. And guess what ? No shadooow :p. I've looked for it a bit and the show avoids shots where we should see her shadow after that for a while ;).

Also, while I managed to piece most things together, watched episodes 1 to 4 with Commie's subs. GOD THEY'RE FUCKING ATROCIOUS ! So mad :( the kagari x yomi dialogue at the end of episode 4 made me go "huuuuu... I'll try my other subs"

Rewatching: This is where things begin to get difficult to understand. I'm paying more attention to the story now than the first time I watched it, but it's still not easy to follow Well, still two more episodes to go.
Anyway, the teacher wasn't so bad after all. Yomi is freed from all the negativity that she experienced when she was linked to the other world and is finally doing okay. Nice to see. It's a shame Kagari and Yomi don't seem to be really friends anymore, but at least they're okay going their own way, not being dependant on each other any longer.

Also, I don't get all the hate for Kagari that still exists up to now. It's not like she hurt Yomi again this episode. Heck, I thought Mato slapping her last time was also unwarranted, given that she didn't intentionally cause Yomi to break or did it out of malice.

Totally agree. Kagari deserves much more love.

What?? Saya and Yuu knew each other from the very beginning? Is Yuu the original founder of other world?

I thought Black Golden Saw is hella strong but she is pretty weak which is disappointing.

3.7/5

Here's an explanation of the plot:

Yuu is trapped in the Underworld.

STR is trapped in the Real World.

Mato is suppressing some issues from her past, so BRS is getting more and more violent and stronger. BRS is set out to destroy the Underworld.

Saya connects with BGS in order to protect Yuu in the Underworld.

Saya tries to strengthen other avatars (by messing up with the real persons' feelings) so that these can be a match to try and stop BRS from destroying the Underworld.

Everything backfired when not even fully powered Dead Master could deal with BRS, and due to Mato merging with BRS and going Insane now everything seems lost.


thanks for the explanation!!!! my head is spinning, watching this episode. cannot quite understand

5/5 Geez....STR is so badass

Based on the comments here, apparently the real STR is in the real world acting as Yuu, while the real Yuu is in the other world, and that is why saya is stirring some trouble in the real world in order to make their other self stronger in the other world so that the could suppress BRS for the ultimate goal of protecting Yuu in the other world, Interesting, saya wasn't psychotic after all.

I remember the first time I watched this like 5 years ago I didn't get what was going on at all lol. I get it now but what I still don't get is why it would be so bad if BRS destroyed the other world. Other than our secondary cute waifus dying lol.

I love BRS. I vividly remember BRS being a really nice character despite never talking. Especially towards the end.
Yuritopia FTW!!!!!!!!! BANZAI TO YURI !!!!!!!!!!!!

I rewatched the series as the dub came out, and I was confused on this part

We see flash backs of yuu (yes the real yuu) with mato hanging out.

Then we later see yuu (this time it's actually STR as she found out how to control it) with saya in school.


So what happened. Where did mato go. How did yuu leave mato and then meet saya?

Mato remembers yuu as kids. The reason yuu doesn't remember is because they switched before meeting saya. STR didn't experience those times with mato


Still brings the question as to why yuu just randomly left mato as kids.

And then in the last episode the real yuu doesn't even remember mato.

Yet another crazy episode.

Poor Yuu. Her backstory was so tragic.

The ending was especially sad when Yomi deleted Mato's messages and now she doesn't remember her feelings for Mato anymore. :(

Wait so you telling me Sensei was a good person all along? Well it seems so from the flashbacks and all, but again tbh saying each and everything made sense to me would be far-fetched.
