| When I heard Chroniko's aunt crying at the end...felt a damn hollowness in my heart. Good episode. Best one, by far. |
| q_q. Well if the point of this episode was drive home the corrupt dickery of this world until you tear up then it succeeeded handily. Vanilla as it turns out is playing a bro role without even knowing it. Wonder how long this will last. |
 |
| Powerful. Brilliant. Had I known this show was gonna be anything like this, I'd have never pt it off for so long. The MAL synopsis does not do it justice. |
 |
| Best episode so far. The piano playing scene and music near the end was very sad and hauntingly beautiful, a real highlight of the series so far. Not ashamed to say I shed a tear. This is also getting easier to follow, last episode was quite frustrating. |
| Oh no...the feels :'( What a wonderful episode, to say the least. I've only watched 3 episodes and I'm really liking this anime so far. I hope it keeps getting better. |

| I had a hunch last episode, but it looks like Kaiba will get a new body each episode? What a striking implication, that one can guide the course of their future actions by removing any influencing memories. A woman that loves Chroniko as her own daughter—and as the living memory of her sister—couldn't possibly sell off her niece's body, even for the sake of her sons. But take away all happy memories of Chroniko, and she becomes disposable.... It frightens me to think that depression could lead to people taking "suicide in steps." You maybe can't bring yourself to take a leap off a bridge, but you can slowly wipe your mind of all positive memories, giving yourself less and less reason to live. |
| Wow, this episode was excellent, I'm out of words. So simply animated yet so beautifuly told the story. 5/5 |
 |
| I honestly am not understanding the appeal of this, because its depressing that somehow makes it a good show? It all is just random melodrama to me, there is no direction as to what the show is trying to aim for other than "life sucks". Main character still a big question mark who just looks around with vacant wide eyes. Right now I'd give this a 5 and feel generous with the rating. |
 |
| Holy shit, this is so beautiful. At the same time, I don't think I can binge watch this, though. It's just too much. |
| Poor Chroniko. I couldn't imagine why her memories were thrown away like that, I'm sure they were worth something to someone, especially the happy parts? Maybe there's a detail I'm missing. |
| This was a sad episode almost brought me to a tear. |

| What a tragic and yet sinister episode; when the man at the lab told her, as she was fading away, that her memories will not reach her family i was destroyed. As for the family, such a complex thing; at first i thought for sure her step-mother really didn't wanted her at all, but then the end cleared this out for us and showed us a more complex reality. So sad they used to hide food and stuff, but at the same time due to the mom's job it looks they did indeed had some hardtime. So sad now Kaiba is a host in her body, feeling miserable for the lost kid. |

| This is the episode that I realized this series is truly something great. |
 |
| when i watched the ep for the first time i didn't understand what the punch line in it i simply thought that it's just low quality drama but now after watching it for the second time it's make a lot of sense the writer just wanted to tell us ''there is a lot of danger in playing with the human mind and memories basically change the hole feelings of the person'' |
 |
| Honestly I went into this completely blind for the unique art expecting a trippy adventure sort of ordeal. Was not expecting to be tearing up by the 3rd episode, right when the ED starts it hit hard how screwed their world is poor Chroniko |
| that was messed up, poor auntie was working so hard to support everyone and to think that I started disliking her at the start of the episode.. she wasn't selfish at all FUCK that doctor |
| This one is the best of these first three episodes. It's really good. |
 |
| Watching this episode made me so nauseated that I legitimately almost threw up. |
| It's been a while since I last watched this episode in its entirety... I still believe it is a real masterpiece. Everything is just so well done. The character of Chroniko's aunt. The memories being regained with the piano. The use of The Tree Song. The animation, the soundtrack, the characters... Everything is just so good. I love this show. I was afraid rewatching it would ruin my original experience but it's actually even better. |
 |
| Poor Chroniko, she was always working so hard and in the end she wanted to do what she thought was best for her family T_T. the soundtrack is really something, totally love it... |
 |
| It reminds me quite a lot of Fumetsu no Anata e with the main character body-shifting. I'm assuming that'll play a major part in this. |
 |
| Excellent standalone episode, and a pretty emotional one. You know a show's doing a good job when a supporting character for one episode only without too much dialogue, is still compelling to watch and someone I could genuinely feel sorrow for. Nothing forced about this episode whatsoever on the emotional front compared to tons of drama anime I've seen, the montages of memories were pretty powerful stuff. That doc's a scumbag though. |
| The tremendously sad events and themes are presented in a matter-of-fact, "this is how it is in this world," without the tear-jerking drama and sad scenes, just a melancholy atmosphere that sells the world. |
| Another SoL/Drama episode with nothing special and we don't get too much of the main plot, this is looking bad already.. 4/10. |
| Better execution than the last incomprehensible episode, but that isn't exactly an achievement. Surprised Chroniko's body was just thrown in with the rest of the waste if it was intended to be procured by an aristocrat client. Usually you'd expect it to be stored somewhere more secure. |

| Amazing, beautiful episode. I wish we could save Cronico... With Kaiba having her body, at least it feels like she lives on somehow. Seeing her in the opening after this almost made me tear up. Fantastic series so far. |
| damn that was heavy... |
can't yuck my yum  |
