Akane's oppai look pretty unimpressive too :c


To be fair: They increased her bust size for Harvest Festa, I think, which makes sense seeing how it is the fanservice game. No way that's 86, don't lie to me girl. So I guess you could call what the Anime did a faithful adaptation of the original Visual Novel :P

But yeah, the art is impressively unimpressive over all.

Ahaha, that might be true, but these scenes just needed comparison, you know >:D And to be fair, Akane's bust size looks very different on some CGs in both Rewrite and HF - for example it's pretty huge on that image with her and a froggy, I'm sure you know which one :P

I won't be going too much but be grateful that it isn't as rushed compared to the other show that I am clearly watching which is 20x worse... at least in Rewrite its just trimming cute and fluff stuff for me.

Welp, you know, I haven't seen that one, but saying that 'it could be worse' doesn't make this series any better.

Noooot really saying that it could be better than that but at least its less painful to see. Again, for me they're just cutting cute and fluff which is fine for my end at the very least. That's it.
It doesn't make it better, but its rather less painful. You get what I mean?

That Akane fanservice.

But yeah, I thought it was a decent episode. The action scene was good and intense, but too bad it was pretty short. Seems like Sakuya and Sougen were introduced as well.

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.

That's a good point. I think the episode was a lot more focused than the first two(which admittedly doesn't say much) but that is a good example of the show kind of anchoring itself a bit.

Okay this continues to be incomprehensible.


In a lot of ways this reminds me of Kyokai no Kanata. Except that one at least had sakuga fights, even if the rest of the show was incomprehensible poorly paced and poorly planned mess. You could just fast-forward to deliciously animated fights even if characters were cringe cliches and nothing in story made any sense. In here, the animation is mediocre at best and filled with QUALITY and outright animation mistakes. And CGI gives Berserk's Horse a run for its money.

Three episodes in and this feels like I am watching some bonus OVA for a show that I never watched. Nothing makes sense, pacing is awful, animation is awful and now everyone suddenly got powers.

Really don't get what the hype was about for this show.

Yeah, dropped. 2/5 for the episode.

And like that I'am done with this show

Even if this show does "get better later on" Rewrite so far has done nothing to intrigue me or show any promise in the long run and most of its flaws are still incredibly evident. And even when the main plot starts and stuff gets dramatic and dark, i'll be too blindsided by the stupid bullshit in the earlier episodes to really give a shit.

I might check out the VN in the future to see if it lives up to praise, but judging from this anime I don't have high hopes for it.

And if this show ends up being an massive, adaptation train wreck later on (which it probably will) which even VN readers can't defend, don't say I didn't told you so.

Not really saying much but since some people do tend to go a bit far with the adaptation, I would actually suggest you to read the Visual Novel if you don't want to watch the anime, in the near future that is.

Btw, I ain't going to judge you for dropping the show since it is rather understandable, since it does have its moments where its probably just too much fluff atm. I guess to say this is more catered towards the fans probably, though the anime onlies can enjoy it as well (depending which individual). Thats all I'm going to say at the end of the day.

Alright, that's enough of this show. I may check in once this is almost done airing to see if it gets any better but I really can't stand these horrible ("comedy") tropes that this show has. It's not worth sitting through even if the plot becomes good. I really do wish shows would stop or at least balance out using these harem jokes because they really do get in the way.

And speaking of, even if it is early in the show, the plot makes absolutely no sense alongside with the bad pacing.

Surprisingly enjoyed this series quite a lot even with so many things that i don't understand, and this episode especially. The action part was pretty interesting, and i hope that the rewrite ability will be explained later as people said. The comedy is not the best thing, but i think this episode it was not that bad. I found the joke about online games really strange.
As for girls like Shizuru the most.

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.
I don't understand... The anime art style is fine. Of course its not going to be as detailed as single frame CGs...

They are still moving along the common route, although they seem to be putting a bit more focus towards the super natural elements. As a VN reader, I can see where they are going, and they should explain some of the things they have shown later on. A few things were changed compared to the VN, but that is not really an issue as they are still able to work with what they have.

That's more or less how we all felt reading the VN at this point. And it likely won't be till ep 7 that you really get a glimpse of the bigger picture. But all the hints and legwork are mostly there so it should be worth it, the question is whether it will be executed well enough to have an impact.

I'm going to be honest: Grisaia smelled the same back then when its episode 3 first aired.
And I can understand why non-VN readers are confused. Rewrite is much more complex than other KEY works. (mainly because of Tanaka Romeo, a completely different writer than Maeda.)

Let's hope "the 6th route" actually does something.

So it'll be like this ep 'till episode 7? Seems a little far off considering this is 13 episodes but hopefully it'll be worth it. I've been enjoying so far but it feels slow right now and I'm excited for when it picks up. Thanks for giving me hope haha.

That's what we're speculating, yes. It's still in it's world building stages.

Not quite. Shit'll probably hit the fan at episode 7, but as it goes on I expect it to start building up more and more stuff for episode 7 (and then the rest of the show onwards). Things start getting more and more interesting as it gets closer to the inciting incident of the story.

Cool to see Kotarou's rewrite powers in action. Hope he actually gets to fight in this anime.

Sakuya and Eska got introduced! Yes! So happy to see them.

I was surprised that Midou got introduced in this anime. I'm curious with what role he is going to play.

Did I even talked to you for a second? No. I didn't.
I'm just saying that the anime is condensing, and I wouldn't see much of a problem in here imo.

And the VN already had pacing issues to begin with in the first 20 hours in the common route, again, hence why it is condensing and its going to trim down the cute and fluff, since I am sure hell know that 20 hours worth of SoL would fit into 13 episodes.

The animation seems fine but I personally think that can be fixed tidy bit by bit, it is doing so this week of course. Imo.

Uh... I can't deny that at the beginning the characters were archetypes, buuut... as the days passed by I started to like them, hence, their respective routes develops them as characters. Of course, what can I say with only 3 episodes? Or what can I say of course in terms of how it can go? I can't tell shit about what would happen but at least I can point out somethings for the moment being, of course I can be proven wrong in the end so.

And again, this is even slower in the Visual Novel, so I guess to say the least the problem with this is that it doesn't fit due to also trimming the inner monologue.

In the end what can I say? I'm no fortune teller but at least I can give a thought here and my perspective on things rather than staying silent.

Really wish 8-bit stops putting CG students in the foreground.
Watching the first episode, I thought they relied too much on CG students but I passed it off as a drawback for a double-length episode. The second episode seemed to pull away from it a bit but now it's back to having awkward walk cycles in the front.

The one who appeared really early wasn't midou but two other summoners, they deleted this scene where kotarou goes to buy a camera, maybe they're going to show it next episode...I think it's better if they rearrange that scene for the "youknowwhat" actions

I know about that lol. But Kotarou didn't buy the camera and get rescued by Esaka back then. He was rescued by Imamiya lol. Did the "darkness" happen twice though?
