Really nice first episode.
Also i made some research and found out that there is a live action of it though i don't know if it aired or will be airing soon.
The opening is very cool and story is awesome so far.
Those last minutes in the episode were the most interresting.
Let's hope the study doesn't drift away in the next few episodes.
This will be, hopefully, on of the best anime of the season.

Indeed a good start with a lot of mistery and some serious plot, i like that.
The main character is not stupid, maybe it will be interesting and i hope the time- reverted thing will not cause any problem.

He was sent back to 1988 , so maybe now he has to find out who the killer was and the truth behind the kidnappings. His mom saw who it was before she died and was shocked. I don't know what you mean by he can't control it? It already sent him back to the beginning so now he can find everything out himself

wow, i don't expect it to be that good. they extreamly rushed it. but honestly, everything still feel natural. other than scane after that mother killed, i don't rant much. it's fucking great. but i hope they will show some flashback that skipped in this episode on later episode.

9/10.

he's actually asocial, as in, when talking with somebody, he has to think A LOT about what they're saying, in fact, the whole speech in the hospital was like "should i say this?nno do normal eople say that? but i'm not interested... eh, i'll give it a shot. wait, why is she still here?" and so on.

and you know, it has been(somewhat) proven that asocial people are more intelligent, or at least, they seem so.

Wow, this was really good. I knew there'd be a twist at the end, but that was still pretty well done. Good direction, ost & visuals as well! Op by Asian kung fu generation is always great, i'm a fan of them since haruka kanata op of naruto. A1 pictures producing something good once in a while, kek.

Overall best first episode of the season (other than Rangoku Shinjuu), I'll stick around for the rest of the season.

same... what a thriller that episode was. even if I saw the mom's death coming, it still had a crap ton of impact. SAO's director might be pretty good after all, but let's see if he can keep it up this season.


hey, the director Ito is a madhouse graduate who was mainly trained under Mamoru Hosoda! He's good, and this is a perfect series for him to showcase his talent. (plus he said he didnt care about sao)
Imagine a berserk anime by Yoshiaki kawajiri at Madhouse.

Now take a look at Berserk (2016).

There were so many death flags that it wasn't even surprising Satouro's mom died. Well this anime might be a really good watch this season. Interesting plot and of course the mysteries that needs to be solved are quite intriguing. And they played asian kung-fu generation's song in the ending so I automatically love this anime. Its kinda weird though that they used a relatively old song.

Starting watching this because I had some free time but darn, that was really interesting. Felt really 'meh' about the mother at the beginning but I grew to like her pretty fast.

I like Satoru's voice actor, he's doing a great job.

This looks very interesting so far. I've always been into time travel and this could be another (possibly even less flawed) version of Steins;Gate. I can already see the similarities. On its own, it has an interesting premise, Kajiura's music and the production looks good. It could very well be a worthy show.

But I do not like Satoru's voice.


it fits extremly well with his character, which isn't portrayed very well into the anime.

what he says, he says like he should, fact is, he doesn't say what he says in the manga.

Pretty damn good first episode.

MC was realistic with his voice and expressions. Plus I am a huge fan of time-related series so I hope this goes well.

This and Showa are my top for this season. I might start the manga this week.

Shinsekai Yori is a Novel created by Yusuke Kishi. The manga is awful, no need to read it.
A1 did a great job adapting it (although I am still at the start of reading the Novel and I know they removed/changed stuff) but it doesn't change the fact that is one of the best anime of the recent years.

The mother's death flags were being furiously waved in my face, but despite that this episode was very strong. I haven't read the source material, but as an anime-only viewer I didn't dislike the pacing, and the episode was especially strong because of where it ended.

A lot of manga readers seem to be taking this one well, which is good. For those that aren't, you should know that there is a lot that goes into the adaptation of a manga. When you only have one cour to work with, twenty-two minute "chapters", and the source material isn't even finished, modification should be expected for the show to turn out well!

That's what Shirobako taught me, anyway. Haha

This was a really strong first episode - I'm a huge fan of the premise, and I already quite like the main character (props to his voice actor, too, since he is apparently relatively new). The animation and music were great as well. Very much looking forward to future episodes.

That was interesting, for sure. I practically don't know anything about that show, so it give a fresh vibes.

So Satoru was thrown back in time. I'm not sure I understand how this revival thing works. Does it activate by itself? Does he have to do something special to go back in time?

It sure must be soul crushing to learn that your role model was accused of being a serial killer, the one who killed two of your classmate nonetheless.
I find it kinda funny though that the true serial killer thought that it was a great idea to kidnap a little girl dressed as a cliche pedophile rapist. Depressing beard, terrible fisher hat, sunglasses. Yep, perfect camouflage.

Oh my god, that was awesome! Best first episode I've seen this season for sure.

The concept is cool, execution was great, and the second half was especially good. It was sad when Fujinuma's mother was thinking about him as she died :(

Really excited for the next episode.

Great first episode and I hope the rest of the series follows suit. Will the rest of the story be told in 1988 or will the MC go back to present time, maybe some back and forth, that would be interesting.

Wow!! I'm faithfully following this manga. To be honest, this first episode is really wonderful. The voice actor sounds so realistic. I never heard of this guy's voice before, and it surprise me to know that this is his voice acting debut in anime. The story is good in manga. I hope the next episode will be good like the first episode. If they ruin it, I will curse them for ruining this good series. I wish I didn't read the manga first. T_T.

Really good first episode. The story line is just my cup of tea.
Characters are interesting. Wasn't a huge fan of the mother at first, then she started to grow on me but then she died! </3
Emotional attachment towards the characters was built up well in the episode. Definitely going to keep watching!

I hate it. Reading the manga, i think that Kei Sanbe is one of master of thtiller. I love this manga and it's one of my favorite. But when i see how many scenes was delate on the anime, i just want to have the same power as Saturo for changing this bullshit! I can suport that the staf is not famous and the sounds too, but they don't need to change too much the original story. Even it's for 12-13 episodes format.

That was really good.

Dude that girl is so into you. No "friend" would come over for dinner with your mother. Then his mom got stabbed!

Well, none of that matters because he has gone all Back-To-The-Future on us. He has to prevent the kidnapping of that girl I'm guessing.

Definitely interesting episode. There's a lot of potential imo although I'm somewhat worried because the manga is still ongoing. Still good stuff, looking forward to more for sure. The second half was pretty thrilling.


According to the director, the anime will end with the manga's original ending, even though the manga has not yet ended.

Awesome ED song, awesome characters. This series may be a contender for the best Winter Anime for 2016, I haven't even seen the pilot episode for Ajin yet and I can already tell this Anime is better. I'm going to read the manga.

I loved every minute of it.
