----------------------------------------
Eh I suppose this episode wraps up the show with a balance of the light reflecting on their lives with Kaori being alive and the other half involving the future.

A life with Kaori alive is obviously much more pleasant. All said and done though, it doesn't look like the future isn't that grim either.

Humm, they really need an OVA or two to tie things up.

Since these are parallel universes there are alternative paths, including the old future which is still in existence and where Kaori finally wakes up and Airi is rejected. But there is also the new past where Sou starts making his own decisions (which fires up the quantum cube again) because there are now parallel universes resulting from his finally determining things.

As an ending it is sloppy, there are still a lot of things unresolved (though that might indeed be the point), or it could just be that they added things for the VN fans that make little sense to people who have just watched the show (the whole Idol student bit - why was she the only one who remembered Yui).

As it stands now, disappointing, some very nice ideas, but no real resolution so a 6.5 or so. If there is a decent OVA this could improve.

Mmm if I'm not mistaken, the VN ends in a completely different way...

In any case it's a good anime, which I saw with pleasure !

-In Search of the Lost Future episode 12 FINAL-
Oh joy. I love it when animes do this. The ending ended in the true end, but not the true end. The ending was clearly an advertisement to entice watchers to explore the source material to see the real ending. I really fucking hate this shit since we don't even have access to the source material. Before I watched the final, I had planned to include this in my top 5. Well not anymore. Overall it was an enjoyable watch, but since the ending was nothing but an advertisement, I will give it a 7/10.

Well...I liked that Future Sou still seemed to love Kaori enough to embrace her in tears, but I'm not sure that one scene was enough to make up for Yui/Sou tediousness in the present timeline. I guess it'd be tough to like this series if you only saw Yui as a threat to them, but well that's pretty much always how I saw her. Chalk it up to the first episode making me want Kaori and Sou to be happy together no matter what, and while I guess that still happened in some time, it just wasn't enough to make me feel satisfied I guess. I was gonna give this series a 4, but that scene in the future will get me to give it a 5/10. Now to hopefully not think much about this series anymore.

How lame is this, that all main characters, nameless students and Sou who fallen in love with Yui forget about her, but her friend have some memories, remember, knew about her?

Eh... I have always problem with anime with time traveling because lot of them at the end don't have sense for me...
Like another timeline...
I can understand anime with reincarnation, but this one is just... without sense...
Well... most of stories, but this one is just sensless...

and Sou fallen in love with homunculus...
I thought about her as KaorixSou's daughter, because she have simillar/have part of Kaori's chara and Sou raised her and she is also kind simillar to him.
Really, kinda strange love story for me... -.-

Would prefer if they let Kaori die or let her sleep and find the way to wake her up,
or Sou trying to go back to past and save Kaori by himself.

That's the end of this. I got to say I enjoyed this. I wish we had another episode though. I would have like to see Sou's and Yui's reunion even if they hinted he would make Yui eventually I would have like her to see the world where Sou is having a smile this time and the furture is good so she isn't a tool.

The whole episode made me feel largely conflicted. I thought they would deal with the Yui situation in the current timeline, but instead everyone other than random school friend forgot about her and only had hints of deja vu every now and then. Then there was the stuff in a future timeline where Kaori finally wakes up. Well, I'm glad that that version of Sou got his happy ending, and it was good to see that the current Sou will eventually get his happy ending when he creates Yui again.

Sure, it was a bit confusing, but it was a happy ending to a reasonable attempt at a time travel series.

In the end, I think maybe there could be two timeline .... one with adult Suo and Kaori who wakes up, the other with him that reminds Yui and recreates it in the end... it's also discernible in the part where young Suon decides on his future career (doctor?) ...

What? That's it? In one line Kaori wakes up and I guess Sou and her get together and in the other line Kaori doesn't fall into coma but Sou and her don't find together? That end kinda sucks. It's not even clear if Kaori wakes up because Yui succeeded or if it was just coincidence.

I agree but the end in itself annoys me a bit. It's not in conflict with the whole theory that was "explained" in the anime but I rather would have seen Kaori end up with Sou on every line.

Sure it's good that they got together in the end.
But... plot wise... it lacks a lot of it. I'm not saying that it lacks plot, but the direction that they decided to take, and the way they presented things... it was just bad...

He didn't end up with Kaori, when the anime finished, the VN still went on. The ending of the anime is incomplete as it was an advertisement of the source material. The actual ending in the true end, which is the path the anime went down is YuiXSou.

The inevitable "everyone missing a certain someone" part was well done, though I didn't like the how they left the creation of Yui incomplete.
Surely, as the future Sou said he'll make Yui someday, but they should've shown it instead of just an implication.

Overall, decent show but not good enough. 6/10. VN adaptation are hard and they should probably do an OVA to tie the loose ends.


Pretty much the same. I am somewhat grateful they left Yui's creation in the future as implication because I find her the weakest character among the other girls and didn't want to see her story after that. And while I am neither fan of childhood friends-routes, or even characters like Kaori, the anime showed the latter fighting fair and square, while Yui (under the plot pretense to complete her task) comes off as a cocktease to Sou, which usually fuels Kaori's jealousy. That is, it felt the saviour was more a murderer, that kind of thing.

Perhaps I'd never understand why characters like Nagisa and (above all) Airi are not desired routes, even in anime adaptations * sigh*

Kaori in the present and future is alive and well. It was all thanks to Yui. Well, no one ended with anyone even in the last episode.

I didn't enjoyed it much at all. Even this last episode had something missing. The fact that they all can't seem to remember Yui annoys me. I really thought that they would find it in their hearts to at least remember her. Desperately need an OVA for this. There is definitely something missing from this. Sigh.

I just noticed this. When future Sou and Airi was talking in the car, Sou was driving, the next scene, Airi was driving. Holy crap.

So in the end, future Sou loves Kaori and current Sou loves Yui and he will create her in the future huh? The VN ended differently and I wanted to see the ending where they all reunited again in the future, but this ending is not bad at all. Just... this series is mediocre in my opinion.

can't say this was down right awful but it wasn't really good either not that i had high expectations going in,and i liked how they did try and do something different with the whole time traveling but the problem is a lot of shows tend not do that well.




in the end it wasn't really that interesting more predictable than anything plus the fact they just left yui gone like that was weak only person that really remembered her was someone not in the main group


6/10 also i won't let this studio down for them trying to mix cgi and the normal animation together to quickly change it afterwards lol

I really enjoyed the way this ended with Kaori being alive both parallel universes!

Overall 8/10 since I am an anime watcher only and know nothing of the source material!
So glad that I'm not a huge manga reader, because the manga readers WHINE WAY TOO MUCH and have to RUIN every adapted anime for the ANIME ONLY WATCHERS!

Not quite satisfying last episode, but at least it had a happy ending of sorts.

Future Kaori woke up. Young Sou remembers Yui at the end. Older Sou says that his younger self would make Yui again anyway. Which I believe he does in the VN from what I've been told.

But now even though the timelines were melding back together, it still doesn't make much sense. Since Future Sou loved Kaori, but young Sou from the other timeline loved Yui. One of those would have to change since the timelines would be melding together. Because otherwise two Sou's with two different love preferences wouldn't work.

I literally cannot fathom how so many people are rating this so high. There have been some rational people, but wayyy too many are like OMG LOVED IT 9/10! Like what the fuck? Do you not have standards? So many 7-9 out of 10s. I'm not saying it was god awful. Definitely not as bad as say, Glasslip. But don't try to sugar coat it. It didn't even get decent until the last 3 episodes, and the shady ending didn't entirely eliminate the paradox.

this show was a 4, maybe a 5 at BEST. That's not even an opinion.
To the one person who said "best show I've watched this season"...No. You need to either watch more shows or not have shit taste.

Oh boy... This was quite literally what I was most afraid of when I started watching this.
13 episodes - plain and simple - is just not enough to spin out a proper and complete story in general, but here we go and try to sandwich a timetravel, humanoid AI and all kinds of sci-fi tech into it.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed most of the episodes, really thought this anime had sth good going, but the ending was surely lacking in so many aspects sadly. I really wished they would have gone more indepth about quite frankly everything here.

Been quite a while that I have been this disappointed by an ending, yet so happy about the main part of the anime. Maybe they can fix this with a few OVA episodes. 7/10

I think Glasslip was better...

I prefer aniamtion in Glasslip than in UMwM even if it wasn't perfect there were part where animation is nice done.
Romance even if it weak in both series, I prefer if guy start to like normal girl,
than girl which he created, have personality like his childhood friend and have interest in stars, because he tell her about it and she is kinda like daughter.

It still makes me LOL, than Sou prefer create girlfriend than start to dating one of girl which like him... -.-

In Glasslip at last I have 2 characters which I really liked, but in Glasslip is really find characters which I could care about.
