What a great premiere episode this was! Comedy and interactions are top-notch, I've been waiting a long time for this you know.

Odin, lol. Couldn't help but lol numerous times thanks to the Kami-misunderstandings in particular.

God, that rejection though. xD, they even played the Op in the background to hype it up but it was always going down... Got to feel for the MC. Not once in fact, but twice! Odin really let his hopes up there. At least learn the rules, lol.

Small introduction for the male childhood friend too. Gold interactions between him and Hina, certainly up for more of that.

MC is starting to accept her godly wisdom now, it seems. Interesting. 30 days at the end card there, it's going to be some ride until it comes down to 0. That's for sure! And guess what, I'm ready for whatever's to come! My tears are yours, Maeda-sensei lmao.

Also, I need the bloody ost!

Edit: Re-watched the episode and the start of the episode really struck a chord. That's the epilogue after the "end of the world", innit?

Good start, but I'm worried. Key hasn't been getting enough budget to develop what they want for a loooong time. Angel Beats was meh at the end and Charlotte was a disaster. Rewrite was also pure garbage.

I can foresee the production speeding up the pacing near the end, making you wanna cry, not because of the story itself, but because they don't know (or don't care) how much time they need to develop what they want. I don't even need to be a god to tell that.

Pretty good so far.

Izanami and Narukami eh? I wonder where that's from? *coughs* *Persona 4* *coughs*

Definitely curious about the setting and why the world is ending but the first episode was fun. Character dynamic between Sato and Youta is great. Comedy is on point.
Poor Youta though, Izanami straight up rejected him.

Why are people calling Odin/Sato Hina? Did I miss something? I don't think she ever mentioned her name was Hina anywhere.

Damn, she didn’t even stay there for a second after the rejection. This show looks promising, I hope they can make a good drama like other P.A. Works originals. Hina’s eyes are really beautiful.

She knows everything yet she doesn't know about basketball, doesn't know his name, doesn't know how to write his name, doesn't know why he's going to the library, doesn't know the childhood friend's name, doesn't know if he likes her, and has to ask if another horse race is coming up. She doesn't seem entirely clueless about society though which makes it weird she didn't know about basketball (yet does know baseball). She acts like she both can & can't read minds, yet she does seem to have some sort of clairvoyance, possibly. The main character believes it quite easily after just some weather, traffic and horse race predictions (albeit the horse race predictions are quite impressive).

Loved this episode, i expected this to start well knowing Jun Maeda's first episodes and it delivered. Strong comedy and OST, the characters are lively. Favourite start of the season.

Interesting to me how she doesn't know exactly everything, there were moments in this episode that illustrated it.

Apparently the world will end in 30 days due to ''humanity's foolish choices''.

Youta's mom knows about Odin? Didn't see that coming.

Aw poor MC, already got rejected on the first episode :( I already love Sato and her smug personality.

I have high expectations for this anime, as I heard people saying the creators of Angel Beats, Charlotte, and Clannad are producing this. Can anyone confirm this for me?

It already seems it's going to be one hell of a tear jerker with the whole "30 days till the world ends" aspect. I hope they don't ruin it like they did with Charlotte, but the plot so far seems pretty straight forward and doesn't look like it'll take any unexpected turns. But then again, it's just speculation, you never know what's going to happen.

The music also reminded me a little to past Key works.

Hmm thats one hell of an entrance. Her ability to pre empted the questions sure was fun as was her first question regarding the act of putting the ball through the hoop. The prophecy that she revealed though sure was dark. Her tantrums though are hillarious. Still her ability to foresee the future sure was right on the money. Hina though sure struck a critical blow with her knowledge on Kyouko's interests. Overall a pretty enjoyable opening ep with Hina's character being the spotlight with her mannerisms. Its been so long since I seen Ayane Sakura get such a great role. Hopefully Yota will get some good development soon though. That ending theme though sure was excellent.

Clannad, Angel Beats!, Little Busters!, even Charlotte. But this time there will a bit of basketball as well.

Yes, anything Key-related is Jun Maeda; basically the king of tear-jerker anime imo.


I like this pace, very usual for Jun.

Judging from the starting scene, is Sato some kind of director considering her ability...? We'll just have to wait and see, huh?

That confession was really fishy too, if Sato knew that he was going to be rejected—once again, considering her ability—why would she push Narukami to do so?

Can't wait for more.


Only 30 days left, gotta experience as much as possible during his last summer.

Honestly, a great first episode. Comedy was on point, the characters seem to have interesting personalities and visuals were good enough.
And of course there would be baseball, based Key

I know this is gonna be a 12 episodes series, so I hope things won’t get rushed in the second half of the show just like in Charlotte

"Who is she?" Youta asks himself

"She's gods messed up child that has major issues" I say in a loud clear voice

Gonna be a crazy ride in those 30 days isn't it. This is a great part about the anime cause you know every episode will be filled with fun and happiness and that is what I look forward to watching this show. Make the most out of it my fellow characters. This anime could probably be a really good book and damn a confession reject right on the first episode, feels bad to be rejected. I'm probably gonna fall in love with this anime.

Fantastic first episode :)

First episode starts off with "Odin" sitting in a director's chair as she reminisces about memories. I feel like there's foreshadowing here already...


The backgrounds in this show so far look great!! I also like that shot with some random Shiba Inu wagging its tail.

Youta's friend acts and sounds exactly like Hinata from Angel Beats... considering that his voice actor actually voiced Hinata, this is pretty funny. Speaking of funny, there's lots of jokes in this episode and it's all relatively fast-paced like in Angel Beats. Of course, both that show and this episode seem kinda hit and miss with said jokes, but the ones that did work admittedly did give me a laugh. Maybe it's a sign that I might like this show as it goes on.
Youta is already somewhat different from the protagonists in other Key anime in that he already has a crush on someone (that isn't the main girl) and that he seems a bit more impulsive and skeptical. Also he got friendzoned easily... twice. Let's hope that he doesn't end up feeling watered down to the typical Key protagonist like Yuu from Charlotte eventually did.

Interesting that Funimation decided to translate what Odin was essentially saying about wanting to eat something to "The divine choice is... ramen!". I personally would've translated it to "This god wants to eat... ramen!", but I ain't complaining because ramen is indeed a divine choice of food. Miso ramen please. Odin's pretty loud and has the potential to be annoying like some other anime characters cough cough Menma cough, but she's got that kind of smug-ness or something that I liked about Chibiusa. Maybe it's the pink hair.
Also, lol at "Key Noodle", Key's always gotta sneak in some reference to their name, huh?

Of frickin course this show has baseball. It's Jun Maeda, what'd you expect? lmao

It was pretty well established by the end of the episode that Odin clearly can predict the future (except for the baseball scene where I like to think she purposely told him not to hit the ball at all just to troll him XD), so when Odin told Youta to call his mom for permission to let her stay at her home, it was obvious that she was going to agree. But what was interesting about the actual event is that you can hear his mom's reaction... like why would she ask about how old she is or what clothes she's wearing? Then I noticed the tone of her voice. It sounds like the mom actually knows who Youta is talking about... maybe the mom and Odin have met before? Maybe the mom got some kind of sign in the past that she would come to her household in the future and therefore expected her presence? Who knows.

Anyway, this is a somewhat decent start to a new show. Here's to hoping that it goes well.

30 days before the end of the world.

Big brain time:
Youta and his friend were riding the motorbike together.

They crashed.

Youta is either dying or comatose.
Entire anime is happening inside his head while he is either dying due to blood loss, or while comatose.
The 30 days is how long he's got until they pull the plug.

I'M SO DOWN FOR THIS

It's got that Jun Maeda feel to it and I'm all for that.

Now to see if the 12 ep limit will make or break this show like it broke Angel Beats and Charlotte. I believe in Jun Maeda because of his visual novels but his anime originals have suffered because of them not getting 2 cours. I wonder if this is because of the studios if Jun Maeda requests that amount of episodes.

The script writer for this one is Jun Maeda. The one behind Clannad, Angel Beats, Charlotte. All sad shows.

Edit: The rejection didn't bother me because I barely know all the characters especially Izanami. I also don't see the reason why they added it in the show in first episode. Meaning that might matter in future episodes. But the show isn't tag romance. I abandoned the idea of shipping couples in non-romance shows long ago.

Pretty good start I'd say.

Hina seems to be one of those characters that's very annoying but somewhat endearing at the same time so i kind of don't mind her. Feelsbad for Youta who instantly gets rejected by his crush. I'm intrigued how his relationship with Hina will be like from here on out.

I'm looking forward to the next ep.

Good first episode.

A lot of foreshadowing, especially the first part of the ep. Ayaneru's voice really fits Hina (Odin) in my opinion. I just hope the series won't be rushed.

I got this issue about Jun Maeda and his jokes that fails to get me to laugh in the past (especially Angel Beats) but this was entertaining.

I love the OST already. Can't wait to see how this emotional ride plays out.

So, first episode of P.A.'s new series was pretty enjoyable and visually stunning - just like most of P.A.'s other 'works'.
A lot of the sky shots reminded me of Angel Beats! and Irozuku Sekai no Ashita kara.


Lol, first episode in and our MC has already been rejected, that's rough. I wonder if Izanami will come around to him later in the series?

I also bet that Yota's mom knows Hina somehow. The way his mom reacted to him just screams that she's familiar with her, at least I think.

All and all, pretty good first episode, I'm really looking forward to the one.

Wow this hs to be one of the strongest first episodes of the season. Not too familiar with PA Works, but I enjoyed appare ranman a lot and I enjoy the art style quite a bit. Chemistry between Hina and Youta is great. Really liked the horse race scene, ramen shop owner was funny. I wonder if it will keep a more sol feel or if the 30 days until the world ends will take prominence quickly. Either way I’m hooked, can’t wait for ep 2.

oh god this is like going back 10 years in the past! like those animes with annoying loli, the main girl it's Index! but this isn't Shana or FLCL where there's some kind of reason or impetus for them to be together and achieve some kind of purposes. if you removed ten seconds from the episode in where she declares that the world will end, there wouldn't be any kind of overarching plot. The Generic Key Protagonist, a total doormat who drops everything to indulge in his tantruming manic pixie girlfriend's every whim while making snarky remarks to the camera and/or screaming overreactions ugh! Hell, it doesn't even have the fast pace of something like Ah! My Goddess. She simply gloms onto some random milquetoast twit as an excuse to make faces and shriek excitedly for twenty minutes. That's neither cute nor funny enough to carry an entire show, particularly not when it's the default state for most goddamned shows in the first place, and especially not when the thing it appears to want to do to stand apart is to crank up the volume of the shrieking.
