| Already liking this more than the first season. It didn't feel rushed, the music was on point, and the tone was more serious. Also, the opening was vey nostalgic. :') 3/5 so far for me |

| so, does the new season have any potential to be worth watching or is it as bad as the first season was? i'm an anime-only so i was wondering if i should watch this season or not (i was a huge hater for the first season due to how rushed it was) |
| It was okay for a start but the last season was so bad it couldn't really be any worse |
| Now... can someone summarize this episode for me?? At first I thought it was a prequel to the first season since he didnt know who Kagari was and started having the dreams he had in the first season, but then he started having these random moments with all the girls he met so I kinda lost it here. |
 |
| Fuck this! Story is still completely incomprehensible. |
 |
| It was ok, I think?. That Kotori's route scene was so damn bad. The heroines routes scenes were really unneeded, they could work as flashback with a little explication (just like Kotarou told his other lifes). I remembered the scenes where Kagari kills Kotarou more serious and less funny, but I can be remembering wrong. Anyway, they were meh. The animation is bad as expected and I think I am getting tired of Kotarou's VA. This episode is still better than all the season 1. The end, Journey as opening and Daisy Memory were the best of the episode. Btw there are no OP/ED announced? P.S.: |

| Well that was a pretty nice and funny, but quite confusing. First of all i didn't expect that it would be continuation(if i understood correctly that it is), i thought that new season will be couple of arcs with different endings like those dreams in the episode. I was surprised that it ended on a bad/sad note so thist time should be happy ending. |

| Mmm, a perfect mixture of comedy and drama. Very pleasant episode |
| In time, you will know the tragic extent of my fapping's... |
| Initial score: mid 6, what the fuck is going on (that's ok I know what's going on since I read the VN but if I didn't this would be a problem) They just had to have 8bit ruin one of Key's masterpieces |
| The entire anime project was worth it just for that OP sequence. I only wish it were longer. Also the ED music is such a beautiful arrangement of Daisy. The whole ending scene was pretty well done imo, gives me a little hope for the rest of this season. |

| A bit confusing, but I think I understand it now. Brief preview of the 5 other routes, and at the end it introduces the moon route? |
|

| Damn this was better than S1 in its entirety lol I really liked seeing glimpses of all the different routes and possibilities of this series and I ESPECIALLY liked seeing the scenes with Kotaro and Kotomi/Akane/Shizuru (And of course that bath scene lol) The ending scene with Kagari was pretty touching too and I really enjoyed the little montages of those two throughout the episode I have no idea what this season will be about but I'm interested in it once more so I'm looking forward to seeing what happens next |
| Got to say I thought this anime ended in Season 1, as way they end it, I'm shock when I was saw Season 2 on this.... WHHHHAAATTT!!!!!!!!! but I am watch it at moment, kind of like the season 2 episode 1 setting so far. |

Lelouch0202 said: So what exactly has happened to the world now? As I understood the previous seasons, the world was being rewritten into some kind of basic state. Here the world seems to be a post apocalyptic state. There was that scene in the beginning with Kotori trying to shoot Kagari and then Shizuru crying as Koutarou was about to disappear or something. There's also all the flashbacks and memories Koutarou seems to recall of the group. I assume this points to different timelines where different events happen and he's somehow remembering all this in whichever timeline he's currently in or something. Also how exactly does he keep respawning like that? Why isn't Kagari able to talk? What is the thing that Kagari is researching on? Is it something like the 'World Lines' from Steins;Gate or something? Way too many questions man. Would appreciate if someone could summarize how the current events came about unless of course it will be explained later. |
 |
| This episode by itself seemed much better than all of season 1, lets hope it stays that way. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |
| this episode felt a bit confusing, guess things will come to light in the next episodes... |
| People want to know what not even the protagonist have figured out yet ... For now, the pacing looks better than S1, but let's see what will happen next |

I guess things have gotten pretty interesting. Would've been nice if I had experienced all the character routes so I can relate to the memories, I suppose I should have read the VN for that. Thanks for letting me know. |

xlaser08 said: The one in this episode. Where she has the carpet. I mean he's having these "dreams" (very real ones) in the timeline of the end of the first season?Nostalgik said: I got that, thanks though. What I didn't get is what time is the MC living in the time he dreams about meeting Kagari in that garden with the carpet? Is it the aftermath of the first season? Which meeting are you referring to? This one being showed right now where kotarou tries his best to talk to kagari, or the one showed in season 1 ?(Does that even count as a garden though) |
|
| Mmmm that Journey OP with dancing was extremely tasteful, color me surprised. I hate the route excerpts, but it should help people understand the structure once they know everything(at least if you know how general VN structures are you'll be alright). Some of the Moon comedy felt off(that Tensho direction) but other than that the Moon bits were spot on. I mean everything from this point on should be easy business to adapt so it doesn't really deserve praise, but this did make me hopeful from an execution standpoint. |
 |
| I had no fcking clue on what was happening. So basically Kotarou lived a lot of lives in different timelines? including the one in the 1st season? so that was one of many? Kotaro living the lives tho, having an adult relationship with the pres, having 2 hot babes with him while bathing, building a family with Kotori and other shiz. I hope Kagari gets hit by a rock from space again so that she goes back to being like she was in the 1st season, she was entertaining as hell back then, now she's like this robot that doesnt talk, tho that smile was something. Loved how the beautiful art kicked in near the end. |
  |
| That was quite entertaining and fun Also that OP, it was perfect in all ways Here is a lovely Kotarou illustration by Hiromi Nakagawa, the new Chief Animation Director that joined the crew to help improve the quality, she also was an animation supervisor in this ep!

Dark_Kain said: Damn it, it was an actually a good adaptation, now I'm going to keep my hope up once again. Anime only viewers are going to be confused as hell, though. its ok if they are confused, as we all VN readers where confused at that point in Moon and it didn't make full sense until it ended and it was brilliant. hopefully they will keep things good at this pace |
Lelouch0202 said: Well that was quite something, It was interesting but as a person who has not played the VN this leaves me with quite a bit of questions.

Also Koutarou death scenes were quite brutal, I think if they had kept it that way instead of making it comedic in the middle, The final reunion would have been a lot more emotional. |
| Into the Internet! |
| That was confusing indeed |
 » Escapism. |
| One of the best openings of the season. I'm glad they banged out the other routes real quick and are going to deal with the main route this season. This episode was really good, a little slow paced but damn some of those deaths were brutal. Best Girl Returns though!  |

| there is absolutely no sense on what is going on, but at least it is going better than "first season", this might redeem the mess (not really) from the failure they did... i hope... |
| "We could make the world better, but it's easier to just shut our eyes." ~Blackwall |
| It doesn't make so much sense for anime views, can't be helped until end. All those different world lines is an conclusion of ending of all routes, Kotori, Chihaya, Akane, Lucia, Shizuru. Kotarou have all memories from lives he has been living, hopefully this anime getting better cause I love Moon and Terra route in Rewrite VN. |
Nothing ventured, nothing gained (Girls und Panzer der Film ) / from Nishizumi Miho |
| To anime onlys: rewatch the ep and pay attention to details and what Kotarou says |
| This episode left me speechless in so many ways, I don't even know what to say! :| There was so many QUALITY™ moments sometimes xD But for some reason, I enjoyed it more than I should.. Couldn't stop giggling in some scenes... xD Hopefully it keeps a steady pace and keeps getting better :^) I feel bad for the anime onlies....  |

| Amazing episode OMG. Tearing up OMG |
Dark_Kain said: An anime only viewer is bound to ask himself: - Why Kagari is not speaking at all? - Why Kagari acts like she doesn't know Kotauro and keeps killing him? - Why she is not in love with him? - Why she didn't recognize coffe in the first place? - etc... Literally all these questions will be answered at the end of Moon arc lol (probably around episode 3 or 4) |
| Way better than S1 so far as expected. But comedy and ecchi stuff didn't mix well with serious stuff as always. |
| What the heck? I expected shit but it was a way better than I ever anticipated. Could this maybe be a good adaptation? I'll keep low expectation for some more episodes for now... |
Samu-tan said: Well, it was about as mediocre as I expected it to be. This episode was all over the place. It was entertaining at times, but mainly because the first season was handled incredibly poorly, it didn't feel like this episode had any impact whatsoever. Exactly this. Pacing was what killed it for me I think. I had more feeling reading the VN because it took time to build up the setting and made the interactions with Kagari more meaningful. Not to mention that the art is still worse than the VN. What is the point of an anime, a medium which should have an advantage in that department at least, if it has worse art than a VN. |
| Picking the twins from Lucia's route and not the fight with Shizuru in the mall... is the only thing I can call bad in this episod. |
| Welp |
| This second season so far is better the first season. I really like the OP. Tennouji trying to talk to Kagari was funny. The memories he was having were interesting. |
