Satoko and Rika must be protected. They're too pure for this world.
That supervisor is a pedo. He raised all the red flags, I remember them talking about the supervisor in the first arc. He must have given the injection. I think there's a possibility he killed Satoko's elder brother.

Third reset, damn what a weird anime. The story isn't really progressing, even while we keep getting information about their world - the characters aren't, and so the story is stuck in a loop. Quickly weird things begun happening again, this time seems like Rena is wavering to the crazy side more.

The corpse from the beginning seems to have the same death as Keiichi at the end of the second act, mayyybe? That would give me a lot to think about.

Here we go again. So it's Rena's turn to get possessed or curse by the curse?

Nice to see the soft side of Satoko and I think Supervisor was mentioned in previous episode, right? I have a bad feeling for that guy

Pedophile coach.

Hey, what's up with Mion's holster on her left shoulder?

And maybe Rena isn't bad after all. Maybe she was creepy af in the first timeline in order to prevent Keiichi from leaving the village and being cursed like her?

i'm so confused because in every arc keichi asks what the oyashiro curse is? if this took place in different timelines he wouldn't have to ask more than once. and it's not like he's forgotten it - he completely knows nothing about it.

watching the last scene of the last ep then the first scene of this ep got me so confused as mion and shion supposedly died. satoko and rika were really cute when making dinner. thought it was going to be like the part where keichi found the needle with rena so i'm relieved.

That start was fucked up as the whole people in this crazy village, Mion is probably the most fucked up one overall.


Still getting scared when these girls roll their eyes and say weird stuff.

Seems like this time Satoko will be the main villain. The first episode is pretty calm as usual, rinse and repeat.

Keiichi is Subaru's ancestor for sure. This guy just asks to be killed ...
Rena is extremely scary when she starts talking so slowly and her eyes become insane or demonic.

Okay. So this part they really went into Satoko mystery first before Rika. I thought its a different xD. Well, i might suspect the corpse at the first sequence was Satoshi. Well, lets see the truth on the next one.

Not much i can't say on these one, honestly. Satoko and Rike kept adorable. But surely they hide something dark on their behind, together with Rena. How creepy she was when she said everything about the Oyashiro's curse. She had a paranoia condition again, and i can't help but felt bad. uch a poor girl. I wonder whats the real deal about her? Well, on these timeline, Mion and Shion in the same level of thought and kinda supported Keiichi with all of the information dumped they gave. I wonder whos the suspect on these arc? Rena again? Or maybe that doctor? Well, more speculation further intrigued the situation. So i should be careful at my step, from now until the end, later....

Damn, that intro to the arc was disgusting as fuck what the hell is that body.

We back boys, Keiichi's suffering 3. I don't trust Irie yet since he was kinda sus in Onikakushi-hen, I hope we'll know more about him in this arc.

Fuck, I hope Rena is just angry. I don't want her to go crazy again. But, this arc will definitely have more focus on Satoko. Little by little we are getting more little information that we didn't knew before.

so.. the past arcs are still canon even when they restart? i’m so confused ;~ ; or will the demon be in a different girl? i understand it was a visual novel & these are probably all endings/outcomes but i’m so confused on how the anime makes sense of all of it. i hope there’s an explanation..

Interesting start to this new arc. The corpse at the start of the episode looked like it was tortured in the same way that Mion described in the last arc. I think I'll rewatch this show at some point as well, since I think it would be really cool to find more connections between the arcs that I may have missed before.

A decent episode. Though the anime didn't include Kameda-kun from the visual novel. Too bad, the baseball match between Keiichi and Kameda is so amusing.

The doctor / coach wanting to marry Satoko when she gets older ... just ugh ... why would you even start thinking about a child like that as an adult, disgusting.

the coach disgusted me but in the first chapter rena talked about a “coach” so i’m assuming it’s him and he plays a bug part in the story

So I have finally come to a conclusion. So in every 4-episode a new reality starts. Literally everything like introduction and oyashiro curse thing happens again. It's completely a new story after 4 episodes. So I guess after episode 12 it will again start with a new story.

I am just wondering how all of these episodes will connect at the end one day.

Wait who's dead body was shown at the start of the episode?? Was it Keiichi's after Mion got to him at the hospital? I still don't understand this new/alternate reality thing they do after Kei dies in the end.

Satoko and Rika are so darn precious. Protect them at all costs!

Wait, Irie, the clinic doc is 'the Coach'. The one who was involved with Mion and Rena when they tried to kill Kei. Also, he's a damn paedophile (?)

Rena in this reality is again a stark believer of Oyashiro sama but Mion is somewhat of a sceptic.

So basically Satoshi is missing as of now. Or was it his dead body that showed up at the start of the episode?
