Yeah I'm sorry but no. Just no. They didn't even show Yashiro's past.. and instead of Airi showing up to destroy the film, it was Yashiro. Um?? And don't even get me started on the ending. Satoru gets back his memories just like that, the fuck. I..

This was a fucking mess. A mess. 1/5

Does anyone know where abouts I can pick up the manga from before this episode?
For this episode, it began with chapter 32. But, like said above, it would be better if you read the manga since the beginning, since they've skipped a bunch of scenes.


Well I might aswell considering that would be 2/5ths of the manga anyway, that just puts it into perspective of how rushed the ending really is.

That's not mediocre. It makes total sense for Airi to be the one to do that. After all, it was Airi who showed Satoru there were people who believed in him, and also taught him to believe in himself. She also taught her to never give up on his dreams (that line about dreams is exactly what unlock his memories). Airi has been key to his character development all this time. Even in the anime (even though some of her scenes were removed),


and still people shipped Satoru with Kayo? i always felt he would end up with Airi, and this just proves it, they should have end together (not sure how they end in the manga tho)

The Adaption where it was rushed...

Honestly, i am not so mad at skipping stuff or cutting Airi...
but getting his memmories back so fast ._.

Also, Director confirmed in the Interview that he is Hinazuji fan, no wonder he cut Airi out :p

I still fail to understand how what happened is NTR.


It isn't. Trolls just like to claim it is and comment on how people "must be salty now". Who gives a fuck really. But what they did to the Killers backstory: hahahahaha. It wasn't terribly convincing in the manga either, but this takes the cake.

Disappointing, 11 episodes already and no answer or any type of explanation about how the plot device 'revival' works.
Also how he got out of that car? The teacher killed anyone during Satoru coma? Where's Airi?

Looks like this series will have an average ending with this rush and so many questions which wasn't addressed until now.

The Cuck Without Me, by Hinazuki Kayo

When i get bigger, big enough to go somewhere by myself, i want to cuck my friend who's far away. My friend who's in a coma for 15 years. The friend who saved my life. I want to leave him with nothing but pain and sadness. He will have no adults, children or classmates, only his mom. I will **** his friend when i want to **** his friend, i will cuck him when i want to cuck him and visit him with his friend's baby when i want to. I will then think about the cuck i left behind. Kids go to school, like nothing has changed. Adults go to the office, like nothing has changed. His mom eats like she used to. When i think about the cuck without me, i can't help but to laugh. I want to cuck my friend.

I haven't read the manga and thats why the ep makes so much sense to me. I even watched it twice!

In the beginning, the backstory was extremely dark and shows the mind of the young psychopath. Felt kind of like a trip to his psychology and why did he kill.

The whole episode had too many moments that made me cry. Starting with the OP with Satoru completely "ERASED" from it and threads over the girls' heads. And ending with the "I have my memory back".

I will explain how did it make sense to me now....

First, none of us can wait for 10 minutes, let alone 15 years. Seeing Kayo happily married to Hiroomi was so nice and heartbreaking at the same time. But keep in mind they both wouldn't have any future without Satoru's hard work to save them both. They both got killed by the same killer at a young age. So now in this time line, they got married to each other. I kinda imagined her married to someone else but not Hiroomi. But the thought that this baby wasn't going to be born without Satoru makes me wanna sob.

Second, Where is Airi? yes, all of us are wondering where did she disappear? I
kinda have a strong feeling she will have a great scene in the next ep. A scene that will break all of our hearts. But until then lets rationalize here, Satoru didn't even meet her in this timeline. She wouldn't know who he is. In fact, he didn't have any memories of the time before his last revival. which brings me to my next point.

Third, Satoru forgot completely about his revival and all what he has done to save everyone. He thought it was his own fate neglecting the fact that even Kayo's fate was to get killed. He got to save people and change their fate but he was the one harmed. He lost his memory as a result and didn't know why was he able to draw well nor the fact that he's a manga artist. Never mind that, he didn't even know why was he able to read Kanji.

Last, the sudden appearance of the teacher. He introduced himself to Satoru as if he didn't do anything. Why you ask? Because he knew Satoru lost his memory. Let me forward to the moment the teacher was pushing the weal-chair, Satoru felt the terror he had when the teacher was driving the car. The teacher was careful he even wore gloves and asked Satoru to press the button so his fingerprint would be there. He planned it ahead. Now Satoru remembered how did everything happen.

Lets all hope all that rehab time will save him from this unfortunate situation.

A strange change of pace for this episode. It was like unpacking a rubber raft out of its tiny box.....after its unfolded you wonder how the heck it all fit in the tiny box.

So people are seriously getting butthurt about Kayo ending up with Hiromi? Granted, I don't think it makes much sense either but we've missed out on 15 years while Satoru was in a coma; goodness knows what kind of things happened in that time. But yeah, this wasn't an amazing episode, but it was interesting in its own right. I'm just struggling to see how this can feasibly end in one episode without feeling really rushed.

I was expecting this episode to be a trainwreck from all the comments, but it wasn't really. The time skip was indeed jarring, but other than that this seemed to be on line with the previous episodes. I feel as if the drop in quality actually happened after episode 4 or 5 and since then it never went back to that excellence.

About the NTR thing, I find the fact that there are plenty of shippers of Satoru with Kayo more disturbing than the supposedly NTR that took place. Like, all their interactions occurred when Satoru was 29, didn't they?
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

AAAAAAAAAAH IT WAS SUCH A INCREDIBLE EPISODE. Future have changed so much... Kenya, Hiromi, KAYO AND HER KID <3 I didn't expect that Kayo would marry with Hiromi. It's like WHAT, WHT HAPPEND WITH SATORUxKAYO? However, I'm happy for her. She deserves live.
In sum up, I have a lot of feels with this episode. Anger, helplessness, happiness, excitement...

People are more pissed at the amount of development Sataro and Kayo had that they didn't end up together. If they aren't going to get into a romantic relationship, don't bother teasing the viewers with this romance shit. The blushing, the long stares, holding hands and sleeping next to each other. Arthur slapped everyone in the face with that Hiromi bullshit relationship.

Lmao! I see why people are pissed now. I wasn't expecting any romance out of this (because anime generally sucks at it), so I wasn't bothered by Kayo moving on. The main thing that kind of annoyed me was how Killer-sensei showed up out of no where, and how abruptly Satoru's memories came back. It was all a bit rushed. And, as @devinder pointed out, there were maybe one too many tropes. Time travel was fine, but then it threw in a coma and amnesia.

It wasn't that terrible though. I might lower my rating from an 8 to a 7 depending on how the last episode goes.

1. I guess Yashiro saved him, because, you know, he wnats to observe him or something. It was just a prank, he never wanted to kill him.

2. Don't know, would like to know too.

3. Cut, as it seems.


Read chapter 34. They skipped some explanations.

Revival isn't a plot device, nor is the point to explain it. If that's what you care about, you miss the point of the show. If you want that explained, go watch discovery channel or some pseudo-science documentary and learn real science because it doesn't exist for a reason my friend.

Bullshit. The mangaka is not a good one, hence why he doesn't explain how the revivals work and how the butterfly effect has no place in the story. He just wanted an interesting story dumbed down so that the readers could get invested without getting too technical.

This was a story of twists and turns. There was a romance but the author wanted the twist to be big enough the readers were surprised. Hence why he picked Hiromi (the trap) out of all them. Too much teasing by the mangaka left this to be a major problem in the story, hence why people are pissed.

the hamster thing was so weird but it really showed how insane that teacher was.

the opening animation was amazing. crazy how they removed satoru from every scene.

OLDER KENYA WAS SO HOT OMFG. i'm sorry, he was hella awesome.

when he saw his homeroom teacher, i wanted to scream at him to regain his memories and get the hell outta there.

i believe the next episode is gonna be "ohh, satoru regains his strength and fights his teacher!"

since episode nine, this series has been decreasing in score for myself. i do like it, however it is very inconsistent and predictable. i don't know how i feel about this ending. there was never any explanation about revival, how satoru got it, etc. there's no way they'll have time to fit it into the final episode. dissapointing.

overall, 2.5/5.

Let me get this straight. Sensei got hamsters to take care of and just randomly decided to kill all of them but one? Huh? And because one was looking for salvation by standing a top the body of one his siblings......he decides to keep it as a pet?

Where is the motivation or the "bad thing that happened" in his past? You can't tell me he randomly decided to turn out like this right?

Also there is no NTR, they were never in a relationship to begin with, though maybe subtly hinted, they were children lol. And he was gone for 15 years. Anything could have happened, she could have married another man she got to know after that incident and it still won't be unrealistic.

I have no idea what the fuck the hamster analogy was all about. I know that serial killers have a tendency to practice it first on small animals, but that is all i understood. That monologue was directed to Satoru. When did he talk to Satoru?

The opening was nice, seeing Kayo with Hiromi was kinda fucked up even though it´s understandable that in 15 years a lot of shit happens.

Where is Airi? How did he survived the drowning?

This only brings me to question one thing: is the manga that bad or is the anime doing a poor job of adaptating it?

Could you take your fanboy glasses out for a minute? It is making you sound stupid with your denial to one of the most important points in this series because without this ''supernatural ability'' he can't do shit.

It is a plot device because until now it was used for the show convenience or did you forgot the scene when he was arrested?

The 'romance' always leaned more towards Satoru X Airi anyway, IMHO, in both manga/anime.

As for Hiromi being Kayo, that was intentional. BOTH Hiromi and Kayo DIE in the old timeline. Therefore, Satoru was entirely responsible for saving and creating a new family.

Jeez, like half of that episode made such little sense due to how rushed everything has been. I was overjoyed to see Kayo and her baby, I may have teared up. Really though, I had pretty high hopes for this show and it's a shame how far it's fallen downhill since the beginning.

how can anyone still like this fucking stupid show
everything plays out in the most convienient way imaginable(satoru coma and memory loss only ocuur for yashiro not ending up arresred the police being a bunch of retards that can not figure out that the teacher disapearing from the stadium at the same moment satoru went missing show he is the killer)
every characters loves making stupid decisions(yashiro deciding not to kill satoru because of playing with him satoru revealing to the teacher who tried to kill him before that he had his memories back is like asking to be killed)
and yashiro gaku is a laughble unidimensional villain his backgroung story is terrible and he likes to kill little kids just for fun
