| What was the point? |
| Still nothing interesting or of value. |
| The master's face when he asked about whether Kana is going to disappear or not It looks like not his first time seeing Haibane disappears :( I feel like the crows will become a deeper meaning soon Next ep should be the windmills or library |
"Signature removed"   |
| What is the point of this show, nothing ever happens? Is it because it's an OG sol anime? Just girls being annoying and going around town. Luckily it's short and I like the green valleys. |
| Another lovely episode with Rakka |
 |
| The old man asking if kana was going to leave, raised a question in my head, why isn't there one single older haibane? Because I'm assuming they grow older. And again with those crows. |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
Jaguar-chan said: The town are “extremely protective” of the Haibane and they work so as “not to feel indebted” to the town? You guys aren’t allowed to have things that aren’t second-hand! What? It's not as if anything the Haibane have is worn-out or shabby. Given the cultural circumstances I'd even expect the "humans" to be more willing to part with things that are still in good shape exactly so the Haibane can use them. See also that the Haibane seem to be doing really simple work yet it apparently serves to pay for whatever they need. There's obviously not a strict accounting as Rakka "bought" something before she'd done any work and no one warned her she'd incurred a debt she must repay. Makes me think the prohibition against the Haibane handling money is a way of hiding that they're getting more than they give, which is indeed a kind and protective attitude for the "humans" to have towards them. Given what I've heard about the broad thematic nature of this show, I think the idea behind the second-hand objects rule is that it connects the Haibane to someone else; in a sense they have the original owners to thank for everything they use. It's a constant reminder that the world is full of people who are connected to each other. |
| I'm airing on the side of things that the pacing is slightly slower than I would like at this point but at the same time it makes sense to have it's pace considering how it's attempting to go about it's story. Hoping to see some development in the planted symbolisms and plot to this story. Still enjoyable to an extent with it's relaxing and lightly comedic atmosphere. |
 |
| Finally an insteresting episode |
| Only four episodes in and I can already tell this is a masterful work of art. I'm really excited for what else there may come. |

| The haibane seem carefree enough, but they aren't naive by any means. Rakka's been informed on how the world operates throughout, and they all seem helpful. Crows aren't very liked in this universe are they? Chased off with a broom just for loitering around, so sad. |

| So the discrimination theory was most probably false. I still can't help but feel something tragic will suddenly happen, must've watched too much Hell Girl. |

| Barges into a peaceful breakfast, almost chokes on a croissant, refuses to elaborate, leaves |
| The episodes feel like they go really quick even though not a lot is happening. I think its because the atmosphere and pacing are so good. Although I'm enjoying this so far I wish they would introduce some more plot elements, it still feels like we are being introduced to everything, I wonder where the series is planning to go? |
| We are now told that the birds cannot be fed or spoiled, the specific choice of crows both in Rakka's dream and as the common species gives me certain thoughts. Birds are commonly representative of freedom, while crows are known to symbolize death. Could it be that the crows in this world represent finding freedom in death? Their connection with Rakka and how she's born leads me to believe that Rakka (and the other Haibanes too) passed through some type of rebirth or acceptance of death—perhaps the death of her past self. Could it be that this world is some type of purgatory or something? It does seem to be very desolate and strange. Nevertheless, Rakka and her friends are pretty cute, Reki is very amicable and her character remains as another enigma. I like the SoL stuff and the surreal environment. Pieces of worldbuilding in the clock tower too. |

| An episode all about Kana, probably the girl I like the least so far lol might be dropping this |
 |
| I think Haibanes might be dead people. The fact that the crows took away lost items and Rakka's remembered some things from past makes me think this. |
| AUTISM BE DAMNED, THAT GIRL CAN SPIN!! |

| Hating this trend of the episodes repeating themes. Scared -> learn -> haha |
