Lol, tempting Lucia with that ice cream sundae..

A lot more comedy than I had expected this episode with Tennouji trying to capture that little animal.
Shizuru got some screen time with him, something that I find peculiar with their relationship. Lucia's still my favorite character in this series so far.


Tennouji getting attacked is kinda scary ;o

Strange episode. The first half snake hunt, lunch, and recycling stuff was the same old relaxing, show off the harem fluff. And Akane showing off that cleavage was lovely. XD

But that whole dog scene? Yeah I'm lost. Was the hostile butler the one who saved him? What's Shizuru's deal eating at that stall? And that Esaka guy seems to know more than he's letting on...

The action was good, but the rest was awful even by this show's standards, not least because Lucia is still entirely one note in that all she does is punch Kotarou constantly for little or no reason. Other than that, Esaka definitely knows more than he said he does, and I'm almost certain that Ohtori's brother will be an actual villain at some point.

Seriously, am I the only one who thinks this is the worst common route of any Key VN adaptation?

Depends. We'll be seeing a lot of common route actually so I can't tell. And the fact there will be lots of anime-original scenes, that's the more reason I can't answer your question.

This happens when someone is shortening few hours of reading to one, 20min episode, and mixing it with few routes at once. It's impossible to catch up what is going on. And that half assed explanation of Rewrite.
Only 2 things are adapted good enough, Ootori's cuteness and Lucia's talent to be annoying bitch.
Btw, CR's translation of 魔物 sucks even more. Familiar used in VN is much closer to original meaning.

+ Kotarou 'treating' his veranda plants
+ Kotori fumbling through her assembly speech
+Sakuya entrance, Yotarou-kun, best girl bath robe <3
+Yoshi x Ten chuuni skit
+ tsuchinoko skit 10/10, Tsukuno spot on
+ Shizuru lunch, eyes
+Earth Rep
+Rewrite, Midou, Scene of Carnage, dog chase
+Esaka & Gen-san, the way this was done will benefit later
+Shizuru apartment
+Sakuya fate


- No anemic girls dropping like flies during assembly
- Lucia butt grab
- No Yoshi x Ten pebble duel
- Ghosty chased by dog, no sense at all
- Hunter talk

Probably the best episode. Scene transitions are still messy, but getting better due to the lack of ghosty shoehorning, thank god for Pres. Not enough Yoshino skits or Kotori.

Good episode, Liked it.

First half was pretty fun, That Akane bath robe <3
The little play that Koutarou and Yoshi put on in class was really funny. xD
That Lucia butt grab XD

Second half was quite interesting, So Koutarou has the ability to rewrite his physical abilities. At least now I know where the show's name comes from. He should just win the bet by showing off his abilities :3
Hunters? Just what is that white haired girl? Was Sakuya the one who saved Koutarou from that dog? :o
That Esaka guy definitely knows something.
Hoping for a full explanation of all the supernatural elements soon.

Aside from that CGI Hound (which of course it was the most annoying thing as possible)

This episode was actually better than I thought, still I do see some of the transitions being rather messy at times, but in terms of the pacing it was better than before imo. As for the introductions, I am quite skeptical when this particular individual showed up.

(But of course this guy appears in the VN early as well)

We get to see Esaka and Sakuya this week, which funny enough, they're my favorite characters in the Visual Novel. Though inb4 anime onlies will be questioning even more, at this point I don't know what to really say about this and that's all.

Great episode. First half may have been a bit generic but it was fun to see the Occult Club doing activities together.
I like the way they potrayed Kotarou with his ability. In the VN, you have the choice to choose between rewriting his eyes or his legs, and they chose legs. Very cool.

Yep, Lucia constantly beating up Koutarou has already gotten old.....but I'm sure we're still going to see a lot of that.

Most of the episode was pretty boring until the last several minutes with that dog chase. Also, maybe I just wasn't paying attention, but did they even properly explain the Rewrite ability in this episode or the 2 previous ones? It seemed like Koutarou was just able to use it out of nowhere all of a sudden.

That butler dude is giving off some bad vibes as well, particularly at the end of the episode.

The Rewrite ability isn't explained this early. You're supposed to question what it truly is at this point because it's subtly hinted at in previous episodes. But it will get a proper explanation; fear not.

I have very mixed feelings on this episode. I think for those who were following the narrative it's interesting enough to keep going with. But I still really don't like the transitions in this series. I understand the writers had to cut a ton of lines as is, but the going from scene to scene is poorly done, so much so I feel like I'm watching everything zoom by, without taking it in as much as I should. The whole occult club searching was fun, but I really wish they wouldn't keep reminding us about Kotarou's deal with Akane. Not to mention the butt grab on Lucia was completely unnecessary. Some people probably thought that was funny, which is fine, but it's really not my kind of humor. Especially if used in excess. The chase with the dog and dude in red cloak (Midou) was fine being fast because of the nature of scenes like that, it was very engaging.

Overall the episode was very interesting and fun, but the transitions and flow still feel very poor so I think that distracts from the enjoyment a fair amount. Though I usually watch these episodes more than once by watching reactions on youtube etc, so I think that heightens my level of enjoyment because I take more time to absorb everything that went on.

This episode's pacing is waaaaay better than the first two! And I don't know too, is it just me or the art for this episode is starting to look finer (or am I just getting used to it LOL)

As for the story, I still can't tell where it's headed. I have a few expectations (I've read the VN). Every episode I'm going like "WTF WHAT'S HAPPENING WHERE IS THIS ALL GOING" hahahaha and that keeps me interested.

I think Kotarou only ever brought up the "deal" (mentally and verbally, and sarcastically) during the mini expeditions on the common route when shooting for her route, if I remember correctly.

I'm not exactly a happy camper either about what they're doing with Lucia's gags... They felt more... consequential in the VN. I dunno, maybe they thought plate-licking wasn't that funny animated :/

This episode is surprisingly good. I have had lower expectations after ep2 but this brought me a bit of hope again as the direction is pretty well done (compared to the previous two) here.
When the dog showed up again at 17:38 I jumped from my chair lol

It seems that they decided to stabilize the art and tune down the animation (still good) for this episode so it looks better to people not familiar with animation.
There are more sakuga cuts for the MAD I am working on for this episode comparing to the previous one xD


Awwwwwwwwww





btw Na-Tsukuno looks more pretty than I thought she'd be. :D

You haven't missed anything. He knew how because he's been keeping his power a secret all his life. You're supposed to be a little confused/curious about the power at this point. Don't worry; it'll be explored in due time. It is the title of the anime after all :D

I truly enjoy this anime by just seeing the Rewrite world yet again still, this truly isn't a good adaptation.

Rather than a single episode, we rather have scene after scene grouped together in a sequence where each part barely relates to another. This works in VN form but not in anime form. What's more everything is going way too fast. Like I sure enjoyed that food stand scene as it brought back a lot of memories all at once yet again but before I noticed the scene already finished in no time.

It's like they give me the delicious meal just to steal it away after I take but a single bite.

Still it sure was great to see Sakuya and Esaka... I really hope that there will be the scene with Kotaro visiting his antique shop and Esaka doing his random reactions.

Not Bad for another Rushed Episode.
Lucia's Curse Joke with Yoshino,Tennouji grabbing Lucia's Butt and Lucia's Punches is Funny i guess.

As for Midou making a debut on this Episode is not bad i guess,I always like how Midou Laugh and i though Tennouji will use his Rewrite Abilitiy for fighting but it's not .. Sakuya help him.

so 3/5 for me. Good Episode but they do need to improve the Art or Graphics.


The art is top notch for me
Like seriously, did you see anyanime with that clean art? It's clean and clear using light coloirs instead of the dark colours in the visual novel

About the animation, it's beautiful, their movements are so real and interesting, that's one of thebgood points about 8bit. The beautiful animation

I'm sorry I talk alot of vague explanations, but I do animate as a hobby and I kind of understand how they are working

Kawaii Shizuru is kawaii! Aaaand finally we got Sakuya, so I can't complain as much as before :3 But still, compared to VN I can hardly call him bishounen in anime, sigh.

Small art comparison:


Akane's oppai look pretty unimpressive too :c
Was she out of shower in original vn in that scene? I don't think so, 'cause the cg is from HF. Not that it matters.

This episode was surprisingly good compared to the other two: I liked the last two, but they were riddled with problems. This episode, however, had some interesting examples of subtle directing (which is unusual in comparison to the other episodes so far), along with the many layers of sub-text we have going on in most scenes.
