| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Ah, so this episode has more of music thanks to...and again comedy. Should I be surprised? Nope. Yusa looks really energetic though. I think he might of met this girl somewhere before. What a silly encounter imo:  Beautiful music OST used this episode though. I can't wait for the album to come out. Also I think Yuu is becoming more selfless this episode in helping out others. Now that's a bit of change to his character. |
 |
| That's a long-ass insert song but a cute performance by Yusarin. A few weird faces made by Takajou. And more... Btw, isn't this chick from that Akagami anime? Kek. |
| to summarize: How to calm down overly stressed people with wonderful ENGRISH song. And here's your just-10-cm-to-go shot |
| So this cutie one is the Vocalist of Zhiend What a shocking revelation! She even knew that Yuu just lost the one he loved. I didn't expect that song by her is going to calm down Nao's older brother. Can't wait for the next episode and their full band performance. |
 |
| great episode So this was pretty much Yuu's self wish fulfillment. He wanted to repay Nao back and did so with Sala. They made him grow as a character as well this episode.  in comparison Nao really draws out the worst in people. She was talking about how she doesn't care if he met Zhiends vocalist. She's fine with buying their albums and going to lives and now he's talking about wanting to bring Sala to her brother.  |

| i was waiting for something but it didn't happen this episode... what i got was foreshadowing and more Engrish.... 3/5 #AnimaxCharlotte |
 |
| Obligatory PA Works Song advertisement. Sasuga PA Well, not too much happened. Seems the connection between Yuu and Nao just got stronger. A pretty slow development, taking up the entire episode. Shirayuki Sarah is really chill. Not a big fan of 'wise character who can read people's feelings' but meh. Overall, a pretty okay episode. Does not beat last week's nor episode 1, duh. |

I thought that it'd be another slow-paced episode, but I didn't expect this. It looks like Nao's brother is getting better. I just hope Jun Maeda doesn't throw us on another wild ride by making Nao disappear before the concert in the next episode, given the ominous title "The World Not Present". |
| オタクなんじゃねぃよ I'm not an otaku. |
| it's getting good. to be honest, only for this episode, i really like zhiend vocalist , sarah especially her voice. and the last minute , i kinda want to cry after seeing sarah singing in front of nao's brother. it's like she's curing noa's brother. and when you heard noa's voice after what happen in the last minute, i definetely heard a little cry from noa another emotional episode. so the next episode will be the climax right? #AnimaxCharlotte |

| >That Engrish Song by Sarah, I really need to wait for the release of that album(if ever), yeah so good that calm the shit out of Nao's brother. >That song by Yusarin, I really liked how Nao called Yuu to listen to her MV because I think the message of the song is really for Yuu. >Forced comedy strikes again >Overall 4/5 episode can't wait for next week. |
 |
| i didn't like it to be honest, the mood changed too fast from last episode and they're back to introducing characters that they probably won't develop. plus the jokes got old a while ago. |
 |
| Which is worse? Glasslip, a black hole of fun and investment and the perfect definition of "nothing", or Charlotte, an insensitive, sloppy, manipulative, and occasionally offensive (of course I'm referring to the shameless product placement here, and some) work of art? I'm serious, the writer has got to be in a certain level of oblivious to not realize he is trying this hard in writing a piece of shit, wasn't expecting this from Jun Maeda, seems like he is those kind of people who the harder they try the harder they fall. Edit: it's fall not fail damn it. |

| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| Im quite surprised, didnt expect this to be somewhat boring, I was expecting more than just Yuu's development and Tomori's bro slowly getting better. Cmon Charlotte prove me wrong that you aint just a bad ver of Clannad. |

Yuu_vi_Britannia said: rsc-pl said: Because 12 eps for Key story is not enough. are 13 + 1 ova Ehh you know what I mean, 12 or 13, there is no difference. I like this anime as I like every Key's production. It has that specific vibe which causes that I can't wait for next episode. Charlotte is not something which I rate 10/10 (for now), but it IS something different than usual anime. This is the reason why I like it that much. |

| Meh. That felt kinda fake. Falls short compared to the last episode. |

rsc-pl said: Yuu_vi_Britannia said: are 13 + 1 ova Ehh you know what I mean, 12 or 13, there is no difference. Well it comes also to the point of the 'semi waste' of the first 5.. to then go the cliche route of off a character for development .. I am sure powers will play a key role in whats to come .. and remembering things .. but we will see very soon I suspect some heavy dramaish eps soon since they are running out of eps to play with. And the Vocalist did of course drop some heavy foreshadowing |

| Things have changed a lot since the previous two weeks and everything is back to normal including Yuu. Good episode as usual, let's see if there's any twist in the next coming episode. |
| Just what i expected after seeing the preview. Nothing much to say, i'm liking how Yuu and Nao grow closer together by helping each other. It was too easy how they could get Nao's brother to somewhat normal (is it permanent though or just this moment?) |

| So while I'll try and hold off from saying this is really an anime about Yuu and Nao's relationship, I want to say this anime isn't really about teens with powers and more about Yuu and Nao. This episode being a prime example. Yuu does his best from her brother because he is doing his best for her sake. Like he says at the end of the episode, Tomori has changed him a lot. Whereas Tomori saved him last episode from going down, Yuu saves Tomori's brother in return. It's been a give and take relationship. This episode showed a deeper aspect to that relationship. I feel the dynamics of said relationship will radically change with the coming of the concert. Maybe not necessarily romantically (though I hope so) I also feel the concert is going to be a big event. The episode ends omniously with Yuu feeling nostalgic ZHEED. I think a lot of people may have been correct about the whole time traveling. Or maybe Yuu will meet this mysterious 3rd figure in his family. Who knows. I could be making random ass observations up. |
 |
| Seeing Yusa's music video, it was okay, but I didn't expect it to be showed for that long. Yuu seeing and admitting Nao is someone important to him, liked the development. Sarah singing was pretty nice, it really seemed like Nao's brother was composing at that moment. With only a few more episodes, this episode really had the "everyday life" vibe to it, not that I mind, but I wonder what sort of storm would come after a relatively peaceful episode. |

ani12 said: When we will get to the main plot btw? I will drop it if there is onlynao x yuu romance and nothing plot development in the next episode(13 episodes, huh?angel beats had better pacing) Ouch - I dont think AB really handled anything with its plot overly well either. |
I didn't expect Zhiend's vocalist to be blind. That was a surprise. Yuu is definitely kinder and more empathetic now. Guess Ayumi's death and Nao's help really changed him. For the better. Looking forward to their date next episode.  |

These are some pretty harsh words lol, but my views about this anime is same as yours. I really "love" when they kill characters for the plot development yet in the next episode they go for the same shitty jokes. |

| Rally loved the second half of the episode. That music video sucked imo and why was it so long. Also loved the singing at the end. Dat Jesus had me rolling for some reason. |
 |
| Sala and her awesomeness reminds me of Iwasawa's awesomeness from Angel Beats, another anime written by Jun Maeda. That coupled with Sala's eccentric enthusiasm and you have one kick ass character in my book. Her Engrish is hilarious and I wonder if thatwill be explained or ifit's just a quirk. I'm getting a bit worried, with the pacing this show has and only having 5 episodes to actually, well, get to the point/ feels of this story it's looking like they may rush the end a lot . Which is funny because it happened with Angel Beats, but with Little Busters Refrain which came after AB, the ending was not rushed. How old is Sala supposed to be? Her backstory made it seem like she'd finished school sometime ago but her singing healing the brother makes me think it was due to her power that the brother was healed (Whatever that power maybe) which would require her to be an adolescent . . .Unless she feels she is a "kid at heart" so much she got to kee her power XP |

"Fuck this shit, fun things are fun!" |
| They introduced Zhiend's vocalist, I wonder how much she'll contribute to the story. She brought some nice funny moments in this episode. I thought this episode would be a little more emotional, and while it had some emotional moments, it felt like the mood between last episode and this episode switched back to comedy too fast. And they need to stop with the "such a turn off" joke whenever Takajo fangasms over Yusarin. That joke has become overused and redundant to the point where I just roll my eyes when they use it. |

| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| Miyuki and Sugita in one ep :O Sala's awesome and her character design is so friggin beautiful. Her eyes are mesmerizing <3 I wonder what connection Yu has to her if any since he's feeling nostalgia? |
 |
| I absolutely loved the lead singer of Zhiend's song. <3 |
 |
Decent episode.  Ship!!! <3 I like the blind vocalist. Love her attitude and talents. Nice decision by Yuu to bring her to see Nao's bro. Glad it had a positive effect. Hopefully the duo will have a great time at the gig! |
 |
| Sweet episode. He really did change. Now the true mystery remains. Why it feels so nostalgic for him? |

| Freaking terrible episode. Sloppy animation, bad comedy, and too many seconds wasted on Sala and Yuu walking, riding a bus, or eating. Also I'm not sure how Yuu can still stand Nao. She basically forced him to attend her school, which indirectly led to his sister's downfall. He should control her and command her to jump out the window, much like she did to Takajo. Yusarin's Music Video was so dragged out and bad. The English was terrible. But I will say the English in Sala's song was surprisingly good. Nice job Jun using 'atonement for sins cliche' to explain her blindness gg |
 |
| Really good episode, the part with the english singing was beautiful. Nao x Yuu shipping intensifies... And that insert song at the start reminded me a lot of K-on! |
| Helping Nao's brother through song eh? I'm surprised it had any effect. Will something big happen at this Zhiend concert? |
| I really like the second part of the episode when he met the vocalist of that group... Wonder if she will be part of the plot later and was not only on this episode... Also, I wonder how Yuu figure out she was part of that group? |
 |
| This show is like the worst parts of Angel Beats and Clannad put together. |
| Them fixing Nao's problems that quickly is all in an effort to fit a huge plot into only 13 episodes. Not the strongest episode of the series so far, but I enjoyed it and am enjoying Charlotte as a whole. |
| Decent episode. I liked the part where they brought Nao's brother in, but really 'healing' him was just a bit too much for my liking. I hope we get some explanation from what happened and what his state is now (is he really sane again?). |
| Good episode but not like the forced joke part tho.. |
That vocalist is hot o.o |
