The way it treats really simplistic turns (Kagari is crazy because everyone lets her be!) like they're bombshells is downright laughable.

Yomi's mother must be pretty ignorant to let her daughter continue to be in that kind of relationship.

So it looks like the reason for Kagari being the way she is is that she has a fear of loneliness. Okay, but they could have made it more clearer than they did.

And does being killed in the alternate world means that the character has come to terms with her issues? Guess I'll find out next episode.

I just want to know who the hell this Toradora 2.0 girl's parents are? How the hell do you let a 4 year old run into the street barefoot without any supervision? I mean she doesn't even go to school? Wow.

And did another personality come into her head or something near the end? Guess the lesbian love triangle is about to become a square!

Great second episode really loved it and boosted the global score for me! The OP was quite nice and showed us that there might be 4 main character in that special world, meaning 2 episodes for a character.

If i'm right and this arc ended from the girl in the wheelchair than it was a quite lovely arc!

Up to the next episode! 9/10 ~ 5/5

I think that was definitely better than the last episode.
I can't believe the deal with Kagari. No one is stepping in to tell her how crazy and wrong she is? Someone that far off their rocker honestly needs medical treatment.
Didn't mind the CGI so much this time round since there were some nice little scenes in that.
I think the scene when Kagari broke was nicely done
Pacing was faster? Not sure but this episode did seem to pass faster than the last, I don't think I paused once.

Not bad at all. The drama seems forced, but the script is not that far off from anime world to be honest. Remember that most anime is about exaggeration and fantasy so I don't mind the plot being unrealistic at times. The actions and emotional involvement is much better than episode one. I also sense a sinister ploy looming in the horizon so this caught my interest even more.

well it was better than the first episode, the main character is pretty dumb though, not sure I like that...

The dream scenes are quite surreal though and they're an interesting way of portraying what's going on between the characters...

So in the end it was the Irino-sensei (teacher/counsellor) as Black Gold Saw who destroyed her dependence on Yomi and helped Black Rock Shooter (Kuroi) set Kagari free and destroy her inner world, right?
Or am I wrong, was it someone else?

Either way, it was good episode and I can't wait to see what other girls will show up.
Red hair Arata next time? (is she member of volleyball team?)

I can help but think of Madoka when watching this show and now I know where Shaft got their inspiration when creating it. Or I would say that Madoka was partly inspired by original BRS and this tv series then took some influence from Madoka. But it's also true that both shows came out almost at the same time.

Anyway, we have some great cast here, glorious HanaKana as MC in the first place, Miyuki Sawashiro (latest Sinon from SAO2 f.e.) as Yomi, Mamiko Noto (Kotomi/Clannad, Nina/Monster) as teacher, Kagari is voiced by Kitamura Eri (Karen/Bakemonogatari, Sayaka/Madoka, Yuka/Minami-Ke) and Asumi Kana (Marika/Nisekoi, Nyarlko, Yuno/Hidamari Sketch) as Yuu.

The counselor knows too much about the two worlds connection.

They had an argument through a patient's door which ended peacefully with tears.

So far, I'm quite fond of how unique this is as it's more psychologically based. It makes you give it some thought and trying to break down the mystery of what's happening in the "otherworld" and how its outcomes can be affected in the real world (Kagari passing out after Chariot gets beheaded by BRS). The turret animation and action was very engaging to see.

Aside from that, it was intense seeing what they did to represent how powerful emotions, human behavior and mind can be during the climax (the struggle between BRS and Chariot). Glad to see Yomi finally stepping up for herself and not being a burden on herself and Kagari anymore.

I can tell there's symbolism in this anime, but for some reason I'm just barely getting it...I'm confused so far. And what was with that ending? She was having a meltdown and all of a sudden everything is calm...

So I guess what I get so far is that BRS takes most of the pain that Kuroi would take...Or BRS getting beaten up so badly just shows how much pain Kuroi is going through or would have gone through? Hmmm

Seriously that crazy bitch Kagari can ruin everyone's life.

I love the fights in this other world. I actually want to watch the show because of it.

Damn this is awesome!!! Is all the hate that I'm seeing because of the game? Because in no way did it ever describe that it was going to follow the game plot.

From everything I've read, they are just using the characters from the original music video to make an anime.....not make an anime based off of the game....

Rewatching: The first episode was perfect, but this one was even better (why you no give me option to rate it 6 out of 5?) It's so hard to choose who to feel sorry for... All three of them are going through something extremely difficult. Super sad when Chariot gets killed at the end, because her battle scenes are the best. :( I did like her real life smile, though. She is finally a... 'normal' girl.

Excellent and very intense episode.

Kagari is that mentally fucked up child from Stephen King's horror novel.

Those metaphorical action scenes are amazing.
