Did Charlotte manage to pull off a satisfying ending ?
Khalan3 said: Just.... that? holy shit. If that's the case, I'll even lower my generous score.DenjaX said: Would have been nice if Yu still did the Sala healing Nao's brother on different timeline. Probably in the OVA I think they already did; in the epilogue you see her brother quietly lying down with a signed cd |
| Overall I enjoyed this anime. It had flaws, especially with pacing, especially the ending. I believe they should do it with at least one more episode, to show everything more clearly, but I liked it neverthless. It wasn't the worst, but it also wasn't the best. Average. |
| I find it funny that the staff for this show are what we consider "professionals." So much about this show is poorly written and executed. From unconvincing character transitions, stale comedy, contrived drama to boring dialogue and plot holes. Calling the show mediocre is praising it, because nothing about it was done right; well except for the opening theme. A lazily written ending for a lazy show. |

''shounentard'' - ''abfag'' are all ''losers otaku'' which depend on ''self-insert characters'' - ''wish-fulfillment'', because they want to feel strong/powerful/successful/loved/interact with waifus/whatever. |

| man, this anime could have been a lot better but the pacing really killed all good opportunities for the plot to grow better and deeper. if it only aired on 24 episodes they could cover how the main character got into the trouble of collecting abilities and could even be its second half but they forced everything in a single episode which is obviously not a good idea damn, this is the season of disappointment. a lot of potential greats ended being average at most |
| why am i so well drawn into time travel stories? do i really have that many regrets? |

You do know throwing that around like a baseball doesn't make you seem any better right. |
 As of now, please try to refrain from looking at MAL. its a complete mess right now T-T People of anime have whooped, roasted, beaten, and tamed my ass. I have learned my ways and will never speak that horrible word. But, believe me, MY DAY OF VENGEANCE SHALL COME(please dont take this seriously, just "trying" to be funny lol |
| Well i concluded my own Ending. [center] |
 CLICK ME! |
| The show was good until the whole time leap stuff happened. The ending felt pretty rushed but it was satisfying to a degree. |
| You're not even Japanese bro. |
| They should had stopped this show at episode 12. |

The way I see it, if it's the same team/staff then it probably wouldn't be any better. I'll give you my view on this: If you can't write a 3 minute song, there's no way you'll be able to write a 2hour long opera. If you can't write short stories, there's no way you'll be able to write a novel. And if you can't handle 13 episode formats, there's no way you'll be able to handle a 24 episode one. If the original idea and scope of the story didn't fit the format, then they should've revised and edited it. In my eyes, "they didn't have enough episodes" is not an excuse. |

It is not like it was impossible to tell the story in 13 episodes the first half is mostly and slice of life,if they had used most of their time in the main story it would come out as rushed(or did not made terrorists appear out of nowhere |

I support this reasoning.. 13 tablespoons of crap still taste the same as 24 teaspoons of crap.. |
| Great Animation, well-oriented Story, though there were some flaws in the pacing. |

TheBuddahman said: I really wonder how come there are 64 people with such disturbingly low IQ that voted "Yes. I absolutely loved it.". I honestly want to believe is just one person who made a lot of accounts just to upvote the ending |
| Ending (re-editted): Once Yu was saved, he decided that his experiences with stealing other users abilities was complicated and it would be better if they never figured they had the ability in the first place. So Yu, says "Goodbye" to Tomo and says "I'm sorry it had to be this way" (breaking the promise) and kisses her. He then heals his eye to return to a time when the comet has first appeared on earth. (Before it gets too close to earth or before it gives the superpowers). The leap makes him so weak and possibly nearly blind? But with his last strength, and with the help of all the powers he plundered, he decides to destroy the comet but in doing so, he has to kill himself as well. So before he does that, he thanks all his friends in his mind and (with some cool effects and animations), Yu defeats the comet and kills himself. Then the scene fades to the future where his friends are living a happy life and surprisingly, Yu was born again, but this time he, Ayu, and big brother don't have powers. Because of this, the "gang" never meets in the first place. (This is all taken into consideration that there is "only ONE comet" ever appearing.) This ending can also be expanded if Tomo and Yu somehow ended up in the same school together. |
| the last ep was one of the worst eps. it ended quite unexpectedly. things were a bit vague and it felt rushed. apparently there might be a season 2, if they is, i have a lot of hype for it. |
| My hot seat: https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1582823 watch me be a huge noob: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Vav-Cb1biI megaminx+pyraminx :) |
| The ending was rushed. They could easily make few more episodes or even entire season based on this last episode. |
 |
| Can I say HELL NO. Trainwreck of a last ep. |
 |
| I expected them to cut it short with a cliffhanger before he left to save the world or whatever, so I thought it was pretty cool that they actually continued through that. However, there were way too many questions left unanswered, and I feel like they lost the point somewhere in the happy ending. If they wanted it to end tragically, he should have died trying to be a god; he was pretty successful in the end, besides having his memories fucked up. If they wanted to go with a happy ending, I feel like they should have taken it all the way; maybe he'd finally remember what he was fighting for when he took that last power, or when he came back and saw Tomori. Maybe he looked back at those memories in her camcorder. He's had that bs regaining memories before, so it wouldn't be out of the question. In the end, it just gave me a lukewarm feeling. His romance didn't really develop as much as the promising confession led me to believe, he never cured himself or saved the people who died in battle, yet they have the audacity to wrap it all up with "fin". I would've preferred a more decisive ending. |
| the anime was awesome...... if u ignore all the plot holes... i being dreaming to see an anime like this and all that stuff. + cool mc.. yeah it was not perfect... but it made some of my fantasys come true if the anime had like 5 more episodes.. now that woulda being better... srsly thoug the anime was greatly rushed... other than that i give it a 7/10 i guess Sigh.. it coulda being better am gonna check the manga now.... i hope its can fill some holes... [edit] oh fv&k so.. i guess ..this anime came from a LN? .. oR ... IS IT A ANIME ORGINAL ENDING.. THAT GOT TRAINTREKTED ?? .great.. dammit >_> WHY ALL THE ANIME'S I LOVE.. JUST HAS ... HAS.. JUST HAS TO HAS... A BIG FK UP... u_u man ... its like.. god hates the plots in animes i like... so he destorys em..

| There is no option for, surprising great ending for an anime that was at such a bad status to end with episode 12. |

A7medinio said: gabrielrroiz said: yes having an airplane save out of nowhere really makes the ending very satisfyin or having yuuu allways encounter the only abilites he needed was also very clever and lets not forget the random mood swings of yuu that were supposed to be dramatic.truly a great ending The encountering abilities he only needed was actually a very efficient way of handling a rushed ending, making it great. The mood swings were needed so that the ending where he forgot about the girl would be believable. So your sarcasm isn't very useful here. Though, I do agree that we need some explanation about how the helicopter found him. There's still plenty of potential for a second season. Logan(2017) seems pretty influenced by this anime lmao. There's plenty of questions to be asked: How did the helicopter find him? Did Yu tell his brother about the potential to save his friend? (Yu's decision to not fix his eyes was not a bad decision at all; think about his own eyesight). What are the repercussions for the healing ability? Did he regain his memories? He's a global threat now, how will he survive past adolescence? If he mates, being the only one with powers, how will his child turn out? Did the vaccine successfully be exported to every single person in the world? There was a scene where he went around the world and got a glimpse of the moon; could it be that some ability-wielders knew of his plans and went off to hide on the moon (which has no map to be tracked)? Since he has Yusa's ability, could Kumagami possess him? There're probably some more but that's all I can think of.. i was not trying to be very usefull or informative since i hardly believed anyone could take that ending seriously but since you want to do so you might call that an efficient way to progress the story i find it overly convenient and imersion breaking also they only needed to use this sort of contrived storytelling methods because of the writers completely inability to properly pace its story properly,so that the first half almost nothing happened and most of the actually important events where condensed and rushed as fuck in the last episode Also an ending that creates hundreds of questions to the audience without a single hint of how they will be answered,and that relies totally on the fact of a continuation happening,is far from what i would call a great ending |
| It definitely could've been much better. They could've done so much with this series its kind of disappointing, I still loved it to bits but I can see why so many have an issue with it. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| would've given it a 9/10 if it weren't for the fact that the ending was incredibly rushed |

It's not like they skipped crucial information or important segment out of the story. Everything was there and the story was one of the less confusing from its season. So definitely not a bad anime as a whole. And seriously, do you really need to be spoonfed every single info and details? Because I don't and I prefer this show to remain enjoyable rather than a boring show which answer everything to the viewer. Not everyone is an idiot like you. |
| I'd say absolutely. Near the end I was thinking there should have been a season 2. It was certainly a challenge for them to create this anime as a single cour 13 episodes only. Within what they had I'd say it fulfills expectations. |
