| Wait how did Akkun become part of the Tokyo Manji Gang? Akkun should have been a detective. How in the world did he come to the time travel conclusion just based on the fact Takamichi was saved by Naoto? Seems like Kisaki is the villain but I still can't understand why Akkun pushed Takamichi? How did he even know it was Takamichi he was pushing? |
| Someone @ me when this shit gets interesting at least, the first someone thinks when X person is saving other people's lives is that the one being rescued is a time traveler?? bruh. Besides, if you didn't know that Hina had a brother how the fuck did you recognize him when he was saving Takemichi, also how did you recognize Takemichi just from the back when he supposedly "looks different"? And why the fuck does older Takemichi look like a fuckin kid compared to Naoto and Akkun |
 |
| The akkun's power of deduction was extremely accurate ... I even found it uncomfortable, I hope they will explain it at some point, and also give him motivation to push the takemichi on the subway tracks, even if it was an order of some superior want to know the reason why he was ordered to kill the takemichi specifically. |
| I think with each episode the time travel rules get more confusing, I hope the story doesn't end up having a sketchy explanation. My questions: How did Akkun realize Naoto was the one who saved Takemichi? Who was the one who pushed Takemichi off the train platform in the first timeline, given that Akkun must have been in jail for stabbing Kiyomasa? Why does Naoto remember all changes of the timeline? I know he's part of Takemichi's time travel ability, but how exactly was that established? Also, I'm sure this one will be explained, but why did Kisaki order Akkun to push off Takemichi? Besides these questions that confuse me a bit, I found this a very solid episode. The changes Takemichi made in the past influenced Akkun's present, which shows exactly how high the stakes are and how each decision can affect the present. More people are added to the list of those Takemichi wants to save. I feel like the only way to avoid all deaths would be for Takemichi to take Kisaki's place and become the leader of Toman. |
| I honestly don't get how time travel works in this anime and won't even bother, time to suspense my disbelief |
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ |
| It keeps getting more interesting. Piling the burden of saving multiple people on Takemichi makes the plot a lot more interesting because it isn’t as easy as just telling the girl to stay inside for one day in the future. The art is still eh, but the story is helping to make up for it. |
| dude wtf why was kiseki tetta there bruh does he know that takemichi can travel? and draken was cool its no wonder mikey would change after having his best friend die, but kiseki is really a menace |
Manga18 said: just drop it then, but this is the first decent time travel ive watched since steins gate :)This has to be the worst timetravel I've seen in my life. Ok, I hate timetravel and rarely look stuff that contains it but this is worse than back to the future, avenger endgame, the comic "paper girls", the time machine, simpson time machine parody... So he goes to the past, than he goes back to the present, on the same timeline and his ex-girlfriend brother remembers how life was before the changes that time travel made? Anithing else is just topping to this mud cake, actual mud |
| this and steins gate are my fav time travel so far, i might have to rewatch steins gate |
Fucult01 said: it did. His body is in a coma. Only his consciousness went back. And if he lived 12 years in the past then the future will obviously be changed. You will see in future episodes when the mc retuen to the future it will be drastically changed and his body won't be where it was b4 he went back.ttcchen said: It doesn't explain anything lmao He suspected cause no one should know takemichi will die today yet naoto showed up out of nowhere. Dunno why he pushed him but prob kisaki or someone from the gang wants to eliminate takemichi and forced akkun to do it maybe threatened or blackmailed him it was explained in this eps that his body is in some kind of suspended position or whatever. It was explained better in the manga tho. |
| So Kisaki is really the devil that has the Tokyo Manji Gang bending to his will. It was probably him who ordered Akkun to push Takemichi. Kisaki's reign of terror has driving Akkun to kill himself so Takemichi wants to save everybody in TMG from going down the dark path that Kisaki has put them on to save Hina. I wonder how Draken got himself killed? |

whoamiii said: nah. The 1st one is naoto and hina died. 2nd is hina died but naoto is alive cause takemichi saved him in the past. This one is also the one where akkun went to jail. 3rd is now when takemichi fought kiyomasa and befriended mikey and so akkun didn't stab kiyomasa and he became a part of the gang due to his friend (takemichi) being friends with the boss and so in the future he owned that hostess club.ttcchen said: u got it wrong. In the first timeline im pretty sure he didn't stab kiyomasa otherwise takemichi wouldnt be so surprised to hear he had intented to stab the guy. Which means something changed in 2nd timeline (the one at the end of eps 1) causing him to stab kiyomasa which is how naoto found out about it in this eps. Remember how he was wondering why akkun is now a higherup in the gang when he should've been a low thug right out of jail? And since we're in the 3rd timeline right now the timeline when akkun went to jail must have been the 2nd one. I do agree we still dont know who pushed takemichi in the first timeline. Since akkun wasn't part of the gang at the time, and takemichi wasn't friends with mikey, akkun has no reason to be involved in gang matter and the gang has no reason to eliminate takemichi. ttcchen said: u got it wrong.

Ah, no wonder i confused about your previous comment, i misread the 3rd timeline one, and thought it was 2nd, my bad lol But isn't this one still in second timeline? The first one hina, naoto, takemichi, died. Second after eps.1 - now. Did I miss something? But, either way, i agree that akkun stabbed kiyomasa right before this timeline. |

Anithing else is just topping to this mud cake, actual mud It was explained in i think episode 2 or 3 that Naoto became a part of Takemichi's power since he was saved by mc going to the past. That's why he remembers how life was before the changes much like how takemichi also remembers. |
Sulfur2 said: why wouldn't he know ot was takemichi he was pushing when our mc "didn't change at all" like what akkun said? We don't know why he pushed takemichi but it's likely kisaki's doing.Wait how did Akkun become part of the Tokyo Manji Gang? Akkun should have been a detective. How in the world did he come to the time travel conclusion just based on the fact Takamichi was saved by Naoto? Seems like Kisaki is the villain but I still can't understand why Akkun pushed Takamichi? How did he even know it was Takamichi he was pushing? It wasn't akkun who became a detective it was naoto the brother of hina. Akkun came to the time travel conclusion cause no one should have known takemichi would die today yet naoto came out of nowhere and saved him. |

He didn't change at all yet he used to have blonde hair and now has black hair. Also how does Kisaki even know who Takamichi is? They didn't meet in any timeline. |
ttcchen said: If this is the real explanation then i already know this show is gonna upset me. How can he live 12 years in the past if his body is unconscious in the present? What would happen on the day that he time traveled in the past when he lives for the second time, he is supposed to be in coma, right? The problem is not the changes that MC body experience or whatsoever but the simple fact that he is unconsciusness in present. Poorly made.Fucult01 said: it did. His body is in a coma. Only his consciousness went back. And if he lived 12 years in the past then the future will obviously be changed.

| if takemitchi is changing the past then he himself should be changing in the present as well. like he freed them from being slaves yet he still ran away and lives in a run down apartment in the present even though he only ran away originally because they were slaves, his life doesn't seem different at all. i'm also confused about what happens to takemichi's middle school body when he goes forward in time since time continues to flow on without him there, does his middle school self come back when he leaps forward in time or does he just lay there unconscious like he does in the present... also, when akkun jumped off that building it seems like as soon as takemitchi went back inside it would just look like he pushed him, so i was expecting akkun's gang to fight back when he went inside but they just skipped over that part... |
Alvaritoterreos said: some people don't age as bad as others. Naoto looks like a kid too. Akkun just look older cause of how much stress he's under and shit he's been thru.Someone @ me when this shit gets interesting at least, the first someone thinks when X person is saving other people's lives is that the one being rescued is a time traveler?? bruh. Besides, if you didn't know that Hina had a brother how the fuck did you recognize him when he was saving Takemichi, also how did you recognize Takemichi just from the back when he supposedly "looks different"? And why the fuck does older Takemichi look like a fuckin kid compared to Naoto and Akkun Perhaps akkun didn't recognize naoto at first glance when he saved takemichi but he found out later who he is. Well obviously takemichi looks different since his hairstyle changed, but he doesn't look like he's grown at all. His height, posture, stance, etc are all the same, and since akkun knew him for so long even if his hairstyle is different hecan still tell him apart. We don't know if that's the first thing akkun thought of but that doesn't matter since he ultimately came to that conclusion. |

That's because he is gradually changing the past which in return changes the future. Every progress he makes instantly changes things in the future but not for himself yet because he decided to move away from everyone at the end of the school year. That's why he is still in the run down apartment. If u have seen in the first episode he jumped back to the future while handshaking Naoto in a park. Then when he returned in episode 2 he was in the fighting pit with Kiyomasa and the rest of the gang. This means his body is not in suspended animation. The life goes on for him because it is the past. He has already lived the past. But this runs into a problem because he is changing the past meaning his past self can't live the life exactly how it did when he jumps back to future. This is one of the biggest problems with this kind of time traveling. I also thought the same. From the outside perspective it was possible that Take pushed Akkun. Maybe Naoto able to bail him out because he is a cop. i just feel like his original reasoning for running away to live in an apartment doesn't apply anymore cause he stopped having to be a slave. |

And why the fuck does older Takemichi look like a fuckin kid compared to Naoto and Akkun You're clearly not even paying attention to the anime. Akkun saw Naoto's face at the station and then realized that he is Hina's brother when he talked with Takemichi. Akkun also was sitting behind Takemichi, he clearly could've realized it was him by his voice or by his dialogue with Naoto. If you think this anime is not interesting in the slightest, then drop it. |

| Fantastic episode again, this is great. Hina is such a sweet girl. Love how she realizes that Takemichi feels more 'mature' somehow. I laughed when the fireworks scene ended with Takemichi grabbing Naoto's hand and I suspected that he'd get pulled back into the present after that. So Takemichi's time travel is basically real time, he's suspended in the present and lives in the past for equal amounts of time. Damn, Akkun joined the Tokyo Manji in the future after those turn of events. I loved how the entire time Takemichi was preaching how friendship would come through and mean more to Akkun. It was hard to see Akkun break down, he might have had comfort and money but as he said, there are some things money can't buy. He had to sacrifice his heart to gain the things he had, was it worth it? Never expected that Akkun was the one who pushed Takemichi, why? It makes no sense because it looks like a planned action. Takemichi broke of all contact, he said it's been years. Why did Akkun decide to try to murder Takemichi out of nowhere both before the past changed and after. Akkun's deduction that Takemichi can travel through time makes sense to u s as viewers but it's weird that he reaches that conclusion. Nobody would conclude that Naoto saving Takemichi would mean that he can travel to the past, in fact Naoto was a police officer. Nothing wrong with him saving someone. Takemichi himself has done nothing to put suspicion on him being able to change the past, so it feels like Akkun backed on some fantasy theory. Looking forward to next week, I hope Takemichi can save everyone. |

| is Toman the same as Tokyo Manji??? |
| this series is really nice, am loving the twist and changed as he goes back and forth looking forward to whats to happen next |
| "one step at a time" |
| just like in the manga, there are still plot holes or just plot related stuff that i think can be fixed (naoto memories not getting changed ? nothing changing with takemichi even though he's friends with mikey, etc), but at least they Are following the manga. good ep, the pacing for this has been rly nice hope they keep it up |
| The themes of lifelong friends is nice. The time traveling on the other hand grows more concerning. So Akkun pushing him on the tracks in this current present but he wasn't a top guy in the previous present. Meaning someone else did it then right? |

DeeDash said: I've never felt 20 minutes being this short. Made a mistake watching this while it's ongoing. Should've waited to binged on this one.... agreed! It feels like a short. I wanna stop and binge, but curiosity won't let me. |
lulio3000 said: I honestly don't get how time travel works in this anime and won't even bother, time to suspense my disbelief He does not really time travel as much as send his consciousness backwards in time 12 years. I assume because him and Naoto are apart of the time travel like power that they notice the changes in the world but everyone else does not. I am expecting another character to be able to time travel as well, most likely the big bad. |
Will_do_it_later said: is Toman the same as Tokyo Manji??? yes it's the short cut for TOkyo MANji gang. |
| This definitely left a impact on most viewers and Takemichi himself too. Also we are slowly getting closer to the reason why Mikey changed. |
