----------------------------------------
Ah the mood got better this week at first glance, even Nico is in a more pleasant mood at seeing friends together.

I actually got quite a bit of laughs and we also learn more about how the inner connections of the Kiznaiver system. Chidori still not feeling well after the recent events, meh. Reflecting some of the past events and voices to the present gave me a creepy vibe. Some of the kids still looked happy during their past though.

Eating can foods. So the group didn't meet up since then, and no more mission from the committee. It's really gone after summer. Fushigi-kei girl was really lonely without them for the rest of summer so she befriended with two guys again. The principle wants to stop the experience, it seems. Main guy felt the pain again when Nori-chan fell down the building again.

Oh, so he saw her coming out from the secret place during the rain day. The nurse teacher saw three of them came in. She told them the detail. Nori-chan's like that because she's center of the failed experiment and feels all other kids' pain including main guy's. There are some kids who survived are in a condition hard to explain. He cried while remembering some memory. They do love each other.

This episode broke me a little....Chidori just can't seem to bounce back from this

I feel so fucking bad for Nori-chan and just all of the 19 kids in general....And Katsuhira at the end there....Genuinely crying and feeling pure despair :(

This Kizna thing is a monstrosity and it really needs to end....Nori was such a pleasant girl when she was a kid too and at look what happened to her....Fuck man

More and more description about Kizna system and the experiment in the past.
That awkward but yet honest word Nico said are totally perfect at the moment.
And that's what happen when "under-the-weather" person suddenly got worked up.

So finally something about the first Kizna experiment... Damn, Katsuhira crying in the end is gonna stick around in my head for a while, for sure. The other kids, I feel sorry for them. Also Nori-chan, I'm sorry I hated you :'(

gdi, I want these kids to be happy already please while maintaining their friendships. I want them in a cheery mode like Nico, Hisomu, and Katsuhira was in the first half of the ep :'(

I guess she wants to "fix" Katsuhira and maybe even herself, though I doubt that's a priority.

I personally liked this episode, despite being about the past. Probably because I cared more about Katsuhira and Sonozaki than about all the other characters combined.
Then again I like "broken" characters.
Tenga still being selfish beyond measure, grr...

I'm glad the explained the Kizna system a little more.

A tease of Yuta and Maki was lame they needed to be involved more, and the Chidori and Tenga moment was dumb. I felt like Tenga just wanted things to go back to Normal when he wanted Chidori to reject him. She disappointed me.

What a team up of Katsuhira, Nico and Hisomu though, the squad lol.

That ending with Katsuhira though...oof that was hard to take in. I do not see any relationships forming after all of this...maybe Maki and Yuta but I even doubt that.

No sympathy for Sonozaki.

This episode was the best in my opinion. Yet.
Sonozaki which carries the burden of the failed project, loosing all her feelings and feeling the pain of 19 children. This was rather disturbing and sad. Now we know a lot more stuff.
Sonozaki at the end broke me a little, smiling happily and saying she loves Kazuhira. Just look at her face and all those emotions in it.
Still ship them tho.

Maybe in the remaining episodes, there ends up being a way to even out all the sensations that Nori gets to the remaining original kiznaivers and somewhat returns them to a normal state, but I am doubtful about it.

Fuck off Chidori.

That episode was just as amazing as the last one. What a fucking powerful scene at the end. Sonozaki feeling the pain and despair of 19 others. I feel incredibly sorry for her and Katsuhira.

Him, Hisomu and Nico obviously the best part of the episode, their interactions hnngh.

Wow. Some heartless people here, for an anime that's about sensations and emotions, it's quite weird to see that.
Oh well. The thing with the Kizna experiment (the actual one) is that they probably want to further it in order to probably restore the previous kids' pain so that they, and Sonozaki, can live a normal life again. Sonozaki does say in one of the first ep that she wants Katsuhira to feel pain again.

Edit : Sonozaki talks about bringing Katsuhira's pain back when she's about to jump when they were kids.

OFC i don't dislike Chidori. I like her, but she just sucks in this ep.
Her "sin" is the annoyingly "self righteous" one so it's really not out of character for her, although it was total BS.

I'm still hoping she redeems herself.

And I fucking hate Nokia-chan since episode -1000.

What the teacher did at the beginning of the episode was pretty messed up. We finally get more insight on how the Kizna system works, and now it's been explained why Nori takes those injections. Like others have said though, I don't really feel for these characters so it's hard for me to actually care about the parts that are supposed to be dramatic.

And jesus christ does Chidori only care about herself?! Correct me if I'm wrong, but Tenga wanted her to reject him so he could get some sense of closure, right? I'm sure his intentions were good, and he just wanted a straightforward answer, yet she somehow took that and made it all about herself. All she ever seems to do in this anime is cry and play the victim card.

So basically you just hate Chidori, not like Sonozaki. So being (in your opinion) self righteous crybaby is worse than helping to conduct experiments on innocent persons.
Remember it was Chidori who look after Mc for all those years when he was in zombie mode.

Fuck that last scene.

Katsuhira has been an emotionless individual, but watching him break down like that hurt. The first real massive emotional outburst by Katsuhira and it is just utter torment.

The Kizna system has been nothing but flawed. There has hardly been any general success from it.

I thought it was another great episode.

I find it funny how people are complaining about how they don't feel anything for the characters since they didn't get enough development.... To me you either have to be blind or are just ignoring what's in front of your face since there's plenty of it for every character. That's fine if you don't like the characters since you dont like them personally, but don't tell me they didn't have enough development since that's just not true.

And then if they gave individual character arcs for every character to "develop them more" they'd complain that it's repetitive and takes too long to get to the exciting stuff. Ugh, people can be so ridiculous,
you can never win sometimes.

Anyways this episode was pretty heartbreaking. We finally get to learn about the dark secret of the Kizna system and that there was a central person that's get all the pain magnified to them. Now we know why Nori has no emotions. And I felt so bad for all those kids that lost their minds and for Katsuhira realizing what happened to all his friends. That's rough.

And the final scene with Nori and Katsuhira as kids was so sad. She used to be a normal kid.... I really wonder how this experiment is supposed to save the world, it just seems like torture. I guess by having other people understand each other's feelings but it's just too much. I'm glad the government is putting an end to it all, but there's probably gotta be something else that'll give the experiment the right conclusion.

Excited to see more!

Not saying anything in Sonozaki vs Chidori, but about conducting experiments on innocent people, yes it is absolutely wrong but I feel she might be doing this to find a way to help all her friends who have basically become human stones. Of course it doesn't justify using innocent people as test subjects.

Good episode, Light hearted mood in the beginning was nice.

The teacher was such an ass, Can't believe he made fun of them like that.

Liked how Nico, Katsuhira and Hisomu became friends, Glad too see it after the melodrama last week.
Can't believe Chidori acted so moody and melancholic like that, Tenga wasn't really trying to hurt her.

Finally some info on the Kizna system and why Katsuhira never felt any pain
I feel sorry for Nori-chan, Carrying on the pain and sensation of 19 people must have been hell, That cute face she made at the end painted her as such a cheerful personality, Sad she had to go through such treatment.

Hope the angst phase ends for the other people of the group ends, Especially Chidori. She was really unlikable this episode.

I just realized, shouldn't they get sued for experimenting on people WITHOUT their consent? (This is for the teen Kiznaivers)
Cause in Research, that's ethically wrong. lol

Yeah lets make new experiment. Maybe it will help. The last one was complete failure so this new must be success, right? If not, there is possibility that the kids from new group will die. Well whatever.
