| Kei has really subtle ways to solve these problems. I like that. The way he always carefully thinks about the details and how he can subtly intervene the situations is kinda fascinating. |
 |
| This timeline is confusing me a bit. Decent episode, not as exciting as the previous arc. |
 |
| interesting ability, hmmm looks like the next arc is going to be really good from what I saw on the preview |

I'm pretty sure most people didn't notice this logic failure (well actually it's more like a POV failure, but fundamentally they still failed), and keep pretending dialogues are deep and *insert praiseful adjective extracted from elitist anime reviews*.The "official" start of the High School Service Club I guess?. And it doesn't need to wait long for the Club to get a case. Aahh Logic. Feels good. |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| This felt like a boring episode |
Beatrice-KF said: Its not a logic failure, its more likely you had a brain fart. If both the clock and person are upside down than it is right side up for the upside down person viewing the upside down clock.Mascera said: This part triggered me really hard.

| I was a little confused at the start because I didn't know when or where everything was happening, but turns out (I think) this is kind of like a side story that may or may not contribute to the plot. |

Beatrice-KF said: Let's put optic physics aside, because physics don't apply to magic and supernatural phenomenon. If there really was a mirrored world, and she swapped with her image, she would either keep her orientation and appear reversed outside the marble (and from her POV, everything would be reversed when looking around her, whereas looking though the marble again would seemingly display the original orientation), or she would also swap her orientation and become reversed inside it (thus everything would look exactly like before, as she is trying to state here). But there is no image of her outside the marble, her real body is positioned indifferently from the body in the marble, so we have to assume there is no world in the marble and she's just projecting her POV inside it and looking outside (the narration actually hinted strongly at this possibility). The clock outside the marble is indeed upside-down from the point of view of the reversed world. Tnx for the reply, I get what you mean and now it kind of makes sense, but still i think what anime was trying to say is more simple than that. The image of the clock was reversed in the marble when she looked at it from the outside, she wanted "that clock" and wished for it and transferred into the image world and her orientation reversed (from the outside perspective) to matched that world. Then she looked at that "same image of the clock" (not the real one) and now from her perspective the clock was showing the right time and that's why she said "If im upside-down(from the outside POV) and i look at the upside-down clock(again from outside POV), then it isn't upside-down to me(from my POV)!" |

| Action is really slow but HEY! we have 20 episode left. It's gonna be gud |
 |
| I'm hoping there's a significant reason as to why they did a flashback this time. Anyway, still a good episode... I guess. |

| the story went back to when they started highschool. i hope there is a reason why they presented it this way instead of normal chronology. maybe they reset again this time but they were able to go back way further... kei should remember if they did though but no hint to that this ep. hmmm |
 someone else always have what you want, but it usually means nothing to them... |
| I like this kind of episodes, I really enjoyed it. The girl definitely has a strange ability. |
| So another girl that needed help and this time in breaking the rules it seems. It was interesting to watch but not the best episode to be honest, it was somewhat uneventful and lacking a bit. Still it was nice of them to solve the issue. |
JizzyHitler said: I think this was the worst episode yet, the conflict was so unfulfilling and actually boring to watch unfold. This really felt like it was meant to only be half an episode long but they drew it out for the entirety of a single episode. The show had been improving after the first episode because its concepts of how the different abilities offset the other and the cause different outcomes, this episode had none of that. It'd be better if there was anything going on in this episode of worth but there simply wasnt and the pacing really turned what was probably just an inoffensive short plotline into a bad episode. The show needs to improve and fast. Apparently from what I heard from someone who read the LN. This actually shows up more later in the LN as a single off chapter. What I assume the director wanted to do was just to show something uneventful before the real stuff that's about to happen. The 3 part arc is one of best from what I heard too. |
| @JizzyHitler Elitism has to do with the fact that they can eat whatever nonsense dialogue you want, and when you point out that it doesn't make sense, they say you're just too stupid to understand the deepness of the thing. Or the logic. Or both. @15poundfish Just like that. Some people say I have a brain fart because I don't understand that reverse * reverse = normal, but my point is the girl is reversed while the clock is not, because there is no "flip world" (she didn't swap places with her reflection), so she has to look at the clock outside. @John_Max Well sure, if you invoke "shut up it's magic and it works like that in the end" then okay, it's simple and I'm just bickering too much. But given the importance of the fact that she didn't get satisfied with the result of her ability, I just couldn't stand how they pile up fuzzy dialogues for that. There is also another detail about this marble, she tells the MC that the images of the reflection are warped, and this is important because she's trying to escape her respect-the-rules craze. A warped world is unruly, so it's another reason to activate her ability. Yet they don't mention how warped the world appears to her, is it warped twice, inversely warped, or straight ? Do they care for this other detail in the LN ? |
| This episode was so chill. And whilst things didn't feel that important, I get the feeling that it still will have some significance in the overall scheme of things. |

Do they care for this other detail in the LN ? Well its true that she was tired of following the rules and she loved the view from marble because it was warped but in the end this was never enough to trigger her ability and whats triggered it, was actually her true emotions for being good and going after that pure thing and this was related to the stuff about the clock and how it was reversed. I think that's why they didn't went into too much detail about the quality of the image world and just focused on the reverse aspect. Also im haven't read the LN and im an anime only so im not sure how it was shown in LN. |
| I admit that the chapters are a little slow, but they are still as good as ever, especially when they discover the mystery behind the powers. |
| "omg if I eat a lollipop on school grounds I'm breaking the rules! MUH PURITY!" What the hell is this stupid show? Most boring anime this season: Sakurada Reset or Re:Creators? |
| Deep as fuck episode. So pure yet so dark. Deym son! |
on 
| Well, this went from below-average (episodes 1-2) to average (episodes 3-4) to a below-average again (episode 5). So far this has been a pretty lackluster series. The core concept has potential, but I feel it's being wasted... Maybe the problem lies in the directing and script and not the source. Anyhow, I'm still planning on giving it until episode 12 (halfway mark) before I decided what to do with it (that should be enough time for it to improve). |

 |
| •So this was a flashback from when they start the club huh? •A somewhat useless yet interesting ability… •Honestly Sera was a character that i could relate to (Im a kinda obssess with keeping the "order" sometimes) but i would never cry over eating a candy in school grounds for god's sake •The long dialogues ughhh.I honestly think that Shaft suits better when it comes to scenes having long dialogues because they can put crazy (gorgeous) imagery that fits the situation and not bore the audience or i just prefer Shaft's Style overall. >Next arc is about witches Witches you say?  |

| TBH they should've just helped the girl figure out how to get outside of the marble?? do they really think they're doing a public deed by erasing the memory of ppl's mistakes?? for one, i don't trust tsushima, he's using those kid's abilities to his advantage and dressing it up as a "public service". this is all gonna backfire so soon and i can't wait to see how it all unravels. |
 |
| As boring of an episode as ever at least i finished it in one sitting i still looked to me like a 2 hour episode. Hope next arc will be better about witches huh. I really wonder why this anime in particular has an extra minute in the episode? 26 minute episode damn. I wish Tsuki ga Kirei got that extra minute :) |
| So was there a point to this episode? or just more of the MC helping people and preventing things from happening...if we keep getting this for 20 more episodes I can see the score getting lower. |

| It was a great episode And, what???? That pv. Why there was glasses girl again? I mean, I get this was a flashback, but why has she now involved in another case? |
| great episode, as ever. I´m missing the taynis "time table", It helps me to percieve other details in each episode! |
| Hmm so the second semester of the term has arrived eh Hmm so the girl from last time is enters a new class eh. Hmm so Kei and Haruki are being put into a club eh. Hmm so with new semester both are now in high school then I guess being in the service club has its benefits in that they are able to find out more about the special abilities that are in the area. Lol everything Kei says is sarcastic to a degree. Hmm so Sera ending up fainting before she had the chance to attend the ceramony. And right next to her was the marble she found. And in that was the student. So Sera is trapped within the marble eh. Interesting. Hmm so anything that they do using their abilities count as club activities and plus anything that they purchased can be deducted from the club budget as well lol. Sera has quite the interesting ability though in that she can enter the reflective area of a reflective surface. Hmm since she doesn't realize that she's using her ability i would think that there's something in her psych that's causing it. True abilities here can't be used unless the user wishes to use it. Finding the reason why she used it will be a good first step. An interview with someone thats stuck in a marble lol that has to be the most unique interview yet. Lol Sera wanted to skip the ceremony. I guess for students that are dedicated to the school playing hooky is just something that they can't do. Being in a marble must be a interesting experience though. One aspect of Kei that i like is that he would try to understand everything about an incident before he takes action. Like finding out what Sera was doing before and her reasons and personality with regards to her powers. Lol the teacher isn't being honest with himself eh lol. Well Haruki and Kei's job is a bit unusual i guess. Its funny that Sera ended up giving Haruki advice when trapped in the marble. Though its funny seeing haruki try to learn about different speech manners though. Actually i think Sera is a better teacher than Kei is lol. Hmm glad that Sera managed to correct Haruki's manner of speech though. Without knowing them it will be hard for an outsider like Sera to understand why Haruki relies on Kei that much. Sera must really like pure things though. The words that her homeroom teacher said back then really had an impact on her. Guess thats why she values school that much. I suppose endeavoring to be present every day and not getting a good reward for that can be disheartening at times. For Sera i guess missing school for even a hour will make her feel guilty. Since she wanted to live her life free i wonder was that why she ended up in the marble. She will be free to go anywhere but see everything squished. A class monitor or class rep is always a bit of a mix blessing really. Though you have the important role of keeping the class running smoothly your fellow students won't like you for it. Sticking to things that are pure really made Sera's life suffer eh. But despite that it seems that people also admire her for being responsible. But its funny that Sera tried to break her rule bound image though. Hmm so Sera's trigger here was that she wanted to break the rules and yet still be at the ceremony. Ultimately Sera merely wanted to change her personality a little i guess so that she retains the pureness but be different. The reset ability this time was handy and wasn't used that much which was a good thing. While rules are important in life learning to be flexible enough while also obeying them is the lesson that she needs to learn. Im glad that in the end Sera did managed to change by eating her lollipop and thus breaking the rule. But as it turns out its not against the rules to eat outside of class lol. Still im glad that Sera still retains the pureness that she values so highly. |

| Another one saved :)... some people say this anime is boring but think it's just chill. I'm waiting for development in the relationship of Kei and Misora ... I feel like something is gonna happen between them maybe romantically maybe theyll hate each other ... but something is going to happen. I can feel it. |

| Seems like it will be 24 episodes of this, and know what? It's boring...so it's dropped, I like Haruki but seems like this won't be worth my time. |
 |
| Okay, the last two episodes I liekd but this one, not as much. There's still 20 episodes left though, so it can improve a hell lot in that time. Next episode's preview looked interesting at least. |
bittersweetlove said: apparently the next episode is where the show actually gets good so you might want to give it one more week, from what I'm hearing this director is doing some retarded things, apparently the first 2 episodes were not meant to be the start of the story and were only shown after being alluded to in present stories, and this episode I keep hearing is actually filler from way late in the novel that didnt need to be adapted.Seems like it will be 24 episodes of this, and know what? It's boring...so it's dropped, I like Haruki but seems like this won't be worth my time. |

| Nice little break from the main story with a pretty good side story! I like the detective feel that Kei and Misora give off working for the service club! I thought it was a really well-crafted episode that unraveled in a way that wasn't blatantly obvious (which is a nice change of pace from many other anime that just follow predictable patterns) Overall I really liked this episode and I can't wait to see what happens next |
| I shall rule over the realms of anime and manga! Mwahhahahahaha!!! |
| okay...so being pure has it's own disadvantages... 3/5. |
 |
| Not a great episode or case, but it was aright. |
| so they're flash back to when they join the club huh... it made me confused |
| Reminded me of Hamatora ep3, when the ED played in the background at the end of the episode, very feelsy. Loved it. Kei didn't solve her problem, that's probably why the present day of Yoka transferring to her class is relevant. |

| Quite a lovely episode I must say, really like where this is going per episode! |
 |
| Yeah, I didn't like this episode at all. The whole purity angle fell flat for me, because it was too extreme in this case. Too innocent and thus not all that easy to relate to. |
