| i really like the new opening kagari is a very great character, i thought at first that she was a kuudere, but she's really funny ! PS: is it too early for shipping her with kotarou? |

Buck_Wade said: Wait, didn't she have amnesia BEFORE this episode? Sorry, now that I think about it, with the sudden change of her personality in this episode, did ghost girl get amnesia AFTER some of the sneaking around she did in the previous episodes?  It's "original route", nothing to do with the VN |
| WTF happened to Kagaris voice? She sounds nothing like in the VN. Also she's acting really strange. Would have preferred just standard route Kagari. No idea what they plan to do at this point. We saw Moon back in episode 1 so I'm assuming we have to end up there eventually. And how else would they end this without going in to Terra? 5 episodes is gonna be rush city unless there's another season or something. Either way not impressed. Looking forward to Rewrite+ a lot more than whatever this will end up being. |
 |
| Finally more Kagari. The beginning was hilarious with that stone, lmao. Seems like we're getting into the original content now. I can't wait to see how it will go. Both the new OP and ED were great. |

JumBoRGiNo said: Interesting episode honestly wasn't that bad and I guess kagapoop has a split personality. No, she doesn't. In fact, she has none by default |
More like the sender of the rock. |
| New opening is okay really liking the visuals but I'm not a fan of the music... This went in a random direction. Kagari going to school was really wtf but still hilarious. Gil and Pani are back. Probably not a good idea to do that to Chihaya lol Best part of the episode for me  |
 |
Yeah, not even the mighty Yoshino can withstand the wrath of those ribbons, good thing they were set to stun. |
| People were expecting "End of the World" to be an insert song and instead it's used for the OP... it's rather meh. I switched it with "Rewrite" and it seems to fit the tone of the OP much better. Sidenote: Kagari's rather moe. She's also seems to be a bit of an asshole. |

Also she's acting really strange. Would have preferred just standard route Kagari. I wish I read Harvest Festa before watching this. I probably would have appreciated Kagari's antics this episode even more. |
| This has to be the stupidest thing in this series yet xD Kagari was never my no.1 favourite character in the first place, but I'm pretty sure I liked her more than this silly moe trash with no personality. Even her voice seems like a different character... Also, from what I remember she used to call people "homo sapiens", not just "humans" :v I don't like this, I don't like this at all. Oh, but op&ed songs are pretty good at least. |
  |
| That was a weird intro with the meteor or whatever suddenly becoming a small rock and hitting her on head. I haven't played the VN though so that's probably why it felt random to me. Also Kagari sounds nothing like how I expected her to lmao Cheeky mc clearing his internet history ;) Probs my favourite mc of this season |

Thank you! ---- uuh, they've spoiled everything with both openings. WTH are they doing? |

| whoa did kagari get hit by a piece of the moon? ?? New Op and Ed awesome |
Epir said: That was a weird intro with the meteor or whatever suddenly becoming a small rock and hitting her on head. I haven't played the VN though so that's probably why it felt random to me (...) It's original anime content, that wasn't in VN. Kagari don't change her behavior in this way. |
seeker_moc said: If I was familiar with the original material, I'd probably feel the same. The word they're translating as "monster" is 魔物 (mamono -- "evil thing"). The word usually translated as "familiar" is 使い魔 (tsukaima -- "evil spirit made useful"), so "monster" is a better translation than "familiar" is. I didn't pay attention to what they translated as "monster user" however. Since I'm not familiar with the original material, I can't say whether the anime changed the original Japanese or it was just a difference in translators. Could be either.I not sure that I like how they translated "summoner" as "monster user" and "familiar" as "monster", but besides that it was a pretty good episode. At least we're finally getting into original material, and I'm curious how it will turn out with the amnesiac Kagari. |

I probably would have appreciated Kagari's antics this episode even more. I know it's the same VA but she still sounds completely different from Terra Kagari. I'm sure she's doing it on purpose because the character is acting differently but I still don't like it. Maybe she sounds like this in Harvest festa, no idea haven't played it. But it's not even out in English yet so whatever. I'm sure it'll be much better than this anime. |
|
| Kotarou cleared his history before he let Kagari use the computer. LOL That was a great scene. I think I might like Kagari the best out of the girls now. |
 |
| Kagari so cute hahahah she made this episode alot funnier and relaxing :D Kotarou deleting porn from pc hahaha |
| I'm actually really enjoying this plot, there are still many secrets that the protagonist does not know, and I felt like it was left / abandoned in this episode, not entirely because Kagari chased him all the time, many hilarious moments, especially with Yoshino defeated by Kagari and Kotarou taking due care on the PC, I'm looking forward to seeing the development of anime .. |

| Not that I'm defending the explanation for the personality change that was given or anything, but the rock being small yet causing damage, which is what everyone is focusing on, isn't really that strange. A rock falling at terminal velocity, even one that small, can actually do quite a bit given the right circumstances. I'm just more annoyed at the general concept that they had to piggyback on amnesia for the millionth time for the sake of plot. Other than that I actually enjoyed this, go figure |
| Really enjoyed this episode, Kagari was adorable with her new personality. Also I'm surprised we got a new opening and ending theme 8 episodes in. |
 |
| so its finally "original" route huh? i think better stop watch this for a while until i clear everything on VN if anybody here already play VN pls sent PM i have something to ask |
| Into the Internet! |
| so.. it goes animu original |

Terminal velocity is the point in which is an object is falling so fast gravity no longer causes it to accelerate |
| I finally came up with a specific name for the genre of this series. I think Haruhi and others might fit into it as well: chuunibyou-fantasy. The definition of Chuunibyou for those who don't know: A Japanese slang term which roughly translates to "Middle School 2nd Year Syndrome". People with chuunibyou either act like a know-it-all adult and look down on real ones, or believe they have special powers unlike others. Chuunibyou characters sometimes deviate from these guidelines, for instance Okabe Rintarou in Steins;Gate, but they're most often in middle-school or in high-school. Chuunibyou fantasy is when the fantasy elements are depicted just like they are out of a chuunibyou character's imagination, with most characters having their own set of inexplicable powers. They are in a school-life setting. They might fight monsters, but it's optional. Evil organisations are often part of it too. |

Tyrel said: Tennouji said: Why's that? Last episode was decent. Just starting this episode now, but yeah.Now it's not surprising anymore why this series' score is going lower and lower. That way it's going, this is nothing different from any underwhelming generic anime that I've watched. I also feel this is something different and not the Rewrite that I know. After November 13 incident, it should be like darker and more tense. Plus, Kotarou's getting too upset that the club got demolished but this, all the "tense" November 13 incident feels like that event is nothing. I don't hate the episode but I don't like it either. Everything's underwhelming so far and I feel I'm watching C3, which means, I feel I'm watching that everything's random and trying to be looked dark-theme but totally failing to do so. Probably Tanaka will do something at the end. Otherwise, I won't be able to believe that Shizuru's route will be better than this. Also, from 7.02 10 hours ago to 7.01 right now. Yep, not really surprising. |

| As a VN reader I actually liked this episode for the first time in a while, but RIP anime onlies! You guys are just getting spoiled on everything, that OP man is just killer! If I was an AO I'd be like "what in god's name is even happening". This episode was much better than the utter bullshit we were getting before if you ask me. I still got problems with this original route (like a lot) but I can say the original content was fucking needed at this point, they were just killing the original source at every turn before and the rushing, storytelling, pacing, etc were almost unbearable. Now at least they're focusing on mainly original content (there's a little bit of Kotori's route sprinkled in). PS: I hate how Crunchyroll changed Holy Women to "Gaia Saint". I usually don't get too fed up with translations, but cmon man! Use the phrase everyone knows and loves. |
LoomyTheBrewAug 20, 2016 9:48 PM
| Well that rocks as random. couldn't them made a better excuse to change kagari's personality suddenly? Feels like the next route is going to be kotori after the reveal at the end of the episode. |
 |
| Wow Kagari's voice doesn't match her appearance at all. Good episode though |
 |
| >Gaia Saint this is why i dont pay for my anime. |

exleader75 said: New OP and ED since this is the Kagari arc. My only complaint was that the OP was too spoilish on important plot points. I actually enjoy this episode (as a VN reader). It's anime-original content, so I'm not comparing it to the VN. I like Kagari's new persona. It's refreshing from her usual stoic personality. OP did spoil alot, but I guess that if you pause while watching, most of the spoilers wont be that noticeable, since it was soo fast paced. Agree with you, I also enjoyed this episode alot, they are finally stoped butchering the VN plot and gone original, and for what I have seen, I m eager for the next episodes, I guess some scenes will be similar to parts of each heroine's route, but I m fine as long as there is enough material, enough appealing like this episode had lots of. And I surely look forward for more of the heroines (Lucia's battlesuit!!), and surprisingly more Kagari too. They turned such a boring character from the VN, into such a cute and enjoyable girl. I hope now she stops being a plot development tool, and starts to act more like the 6th heroine she was supposed to be in the first place. Kagari's whole dialogue was soo funny, soo amusing whenever she refered to her self as "Kagari-chan" in the VA, instead of refering to herself in first person view. PS: When Kotarou said, he needed some private time, and made her left the room... suffice to say, evidence of his pervert activities on the PC had to go, you cant risk facing those red ribbons all again!

| People keep talking about how much the opening spoils stuff. Is it spoiling stuff, though? You see it, it flashes by quickly, yes. That doesn't mean anime onlies understand what everything in the opening is or means. VN readers see something, they recognize it, and say "wow spoilers in the opening", but that is only since they understand the context. With how confused anime onlies are with the mysteries of the world so far, they wont be understanding certain things in the opening until they happen in the anime. |
| I love Kagari's new personality! Though I was really thrown off at first by her voice. I expected it to be much higher pitched. But she's definitely a much more fun character now. And all her interactions with Kotarou were great! The new OP and ED are nice too. I'm looking forward to the rest of this anime original route. |
| Cross-country >>>>>>>>>>>> Every other sport |
| I like Kagari a lot more after hearing her voice, it's deeper and louder than I imagined but that's what makes it nice. Also her personality is really fun, I hope she spoke in earlier episodes so we could warm up to her more but oh well. The rock hit too late. Is it just me or Shimako looks a bit like Kagari? I'm suspicious. I'm glad Kotori is alright, was worried about her.. The mystery is getting weirder. I loved Kagari tho. |

| So the ribbon loli can talk too. And she's called Kagari and has lost her memories so she's here with Koutaro to find herself. But Koutaro isn't interested in finding her so he leaves her with the internet and goes on with his daily life. Lol he kicks her out of the room to make his laptop safe for work. Lol giving the internet to this loli wasn't the right decision because she started to read web comics and got addicted to them quickly enough. Kagari is quite the fun loli. The whole episode was pretty hilarious with its near perfect comedy. Lol Kagari beating Yoshino with her ribbons because he was in her way. Her purpose for coming to school was because Koutaro was supposedly enjoying himself there. And everyone related to whatever happened in the forest is absent from school. Lucia and Shizuru are busy with their Guardian work as they destroying monsters of the Gaias with that badass old sword wielding man. Akane is now almost the new saint for the Gaia so she can't go around to school and stuff. The only thing she can do is play Counterstrike or whatever on her laptop lol. Chihaya is with Akane so she's taking days off too. And Akane found Inoue but she had probably already seen too much so her memories were erased. But despite not remembering anything, she remembers that she has to give that memory card to Koutaro which contains whatever she saw in that forest. And Kotori isn't as normal as she looks. She's also similar to the other girls and has some connection with all the supernatural mumbo-jumbo going on. We get a new OP and ED here. The new op was cool too. The episode overall introduces Kagari quite nicely. I was curious about who exactly this ribbon loli is and I got a fun little girl which is good enough. But this isn't everything as there is more to this loli than just that. |
| I only have a very very very vague sense of what the VN is about and some of the stuff that takes place. So on top of basically not knowing what the fuck has been going on the entire time, now with this route change I'm like double fucked with not knowing what's going on. Hell they didn't even buy me dinner first. |
| New OP and ED was good, OP let out some hints for the upcoming episodes, though I'm still lost. Well I enjoyed the episode, never expected Kagari being talkative, she looks so quiet on the previous episodes. |
 |
| idek I'm totally in love with the new op, it's WAY better than the first one. also Anri Kumaki's voice. |
