Eri Okada can be surprisingly useful in this show.

Looks like Kei made precautions with the case. Not bad. Ukawa's request to use her ability strikes to me as unsurprising.

The two's teacher asked that lady who rarely use power for help because of the unknown incidents. It seems like he doesn't want the power, either, because he's afraid of it.

The main guy w. Yui-chan's character, and Reset girl with cat girl. He already asked cat girl for help on the same thing he asked Yui-chan's character, but cat girl found first. Reset girl is confused at her action which related to her feelings.

Trees expanding?! The lady did use her power and stopped it.

That Sakurai-san's character talking about Sakurada sounds like Sagrada.

Sakurai-san's character wants him to give the photos. Then reveal about the series of bizarre event, and that he remembers that man from strap time, which gives him hint to his power as he planned to erase his power.

Conclusion to the arc next.

So things are getting intense and it looks like next week might be very hard on both Kei and Sumire.
I am looking forward to it seeing the things that happened so far it could be very nice.

This had initially felt like a more relaxed episode, but the conversation between Kei and Urachi was extremely interesting on a number of levels, not least how Kei pieced everything together from largely being on the sidelines throughout this section of the story. It also has some interesting implications in terms of Kei's relationship with both Haruki and Sumire; with Urachi's battle to force through the removal of all abilities seemingly complete, something has got to give there and I can't help but feel that it's not good news for Sumire, which I'm sure will be developed next week. Also, with Kei's ability being impossible to remove - and this being known by Urachi - I'd be surprised if he isn't targeted in some way to prevent his intervention or to prevent him from revealing everything he just told Urachi.

What a turnaround this second cour has been for this show.

Assuming that Kei is able to get around revealing the existence of the photo of the sakura tree because he is treating the photos as being from the Witch since her note implies that she arranged for him to receive them, why is he able to say that the photo of the Witch is from Sasano? Or is he interpreting that the photos all came from Sasano, and just gave the sakura tree photo to someone else so that he technically doesn't have it?

Ukawa decided to help the Bureau wipe out the abilities. She replied rather fast. Shintarou is afraid of the abilities and thinks they are unfair. Kei was surprised to see him. He had an interesting conversation with Kagaya.

Somehow the conversion between Kei and Urachi was intense.

So even if they do remove and make people forget about abilities, Kei will still remember. The question is, how will they handle that problem?

From the preview things will get more intense.

The reveals this time around were pretty good. Though I would love to see Masamune become desperate to see his plan to fruition.
The way things stand Masamune cannot go through with his plan because he cannot completely wipe out all the abilities from Sakurada, seeing as Kei doesn't want it to happen. As much planning as he done, it's all falling apart on him.

Now I sort of get why Sumire had to kill herself like that, though given the preview I bet it wasn't without side effects. Highly expect that Soma's return may not be made permanent, and we may have to say goodbye to her again next episode....

Loved how Kei taunted Masamune that he couldn't complete his plan without killing him off. Catch 22 when you want to do everything legally, eh? XD

Pretty good episode and loved the 2ed half, it was interesting and intense.
It feels like the anime is going to end next week but we still got 5 more episodes after that.

Ukawa-san have a "child form"? that was something, but it also make sense and explains her interest in the stuff about the okashi.

Also Souma taking a shower at Kei's place, i can read your minds... u think they've gonna get it on ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
maybe, but i actually i think it might have something to do with Souma's death after that river suicide, like she appearing naked because of that or something.

Anyway, cant w8 for the next episode.

It took 18 episodes for me to figure out that I actually dislike the show's ambiance. It's really uncomfortable to watch it every week tbh. Since the suicide in 2nd ep, I can't help but feel every ep has a sense of foreboding .-.

Otherwise it was good episode.
I have a feeling Soma has done Kei absolutely didn't wanted to happen. Something that might makes us hate her.

Conclusion to the arc next week.
Makes me wonder what will be the last three episode be about.

^ The last 3 episodes? Isn't it 5 episodes, since the show is listed to have 24 episodes?

Anyway, finally we learn why Sakurada is spelt Sagrada in the official English translation.

It's now crystal clear (from the pv especially) that the current Souma is not the original Souma, so Souma is actually dead (unless the main antagonist can rewind time on her corpse to revive her?). If the copy Souma isn't dead as well by the end of this, she'll probably lose all her memories about Kei and Haruki. I'm starting to feel that Kei might die as well. In any case, if he lives, I think I prefer him staying alone, because if he hooked up with Haruki, it would be pretty disturbing considering that their happiness would be built on Souma's misery and bones (quite literally...)

If the main antagonist can rewind time on her corpse, Souma will die in two years.

My theory: Souma is Haruki, who knows the future or the future. And she reset to save Kei.
Sentence of the preview of the episode 19: Souma says: There is nothing that I can do, I am equal to her.

Seems that Kei has managed to figure out Masamune's true goal then. All of these events were set forth by the meeting with Souma and the Mcguffin though. Its interesting seeing Kei try to out think Masamune though. So Masamune's next move is to gather allies for his plan then. Trying to get Sasane is a good plan. But to think that Kei's adviser is now on actively opposing them though. While abilities themselves can be scary i think that in the end of the day its how you use them that counts. But to think that Shintarou is actually afraid of abilities though i wonder whether those are lies or his true feelings. A perfect ally for Masamune though. Its funny how Youka's ability is now restricted to search for people though. Using Nono to find someone with her ability was a good move on Kei's part. Its nice that as a result of Kei realizing that he's in love with Haruki that they now have a normal relationship at last. To Nono i guess these changes to Haruki may sound like a normal relationship but to Haruki these are important changes. Learning to be considerate is also a good sign of Haruki's development as a character. Non's advice to Haruki was spot on.

These spontaneous activation s sure are starting to cause damage though. And right into Masamune's plans too. So this was a demonstration for Sasane eh. To bad that Kei was too late but Shintarou's answers to Kei's questions were interesting. Lol Adults assume that they are always right. Sasane's ability allowed her to change the whole area eh. So this is Masamune's way of forcing the bureau to go along with his plan eh. Masamune seems pretty sure that his plan has worked though. So Kei knows exactly what Masamune's ability is then from that first meeting of theirs. So his ability is time rewind in which he can recreate someone's past then. For Kei to be able to come up with his deduction thats this detailed though his deduction and analysis abilities is impressive. Kei's ability is the one thing that stands in Masamune's plan though. And now the scene to the final arc is set. Interested to see how this ends though.

Not sure that's how it works. The keychain broke because there was a crack that the rewind didn't get rid of. But what if there was no crack? Would it break again? Souma died because she drowned/broke her neck as a result of outside factor exposure (drowning or impact), so if there's no active outside interference, that is if she doesn't actively try break her own neck or drown herself, would her neck break by itself and lungs just get filled with water that poped from literally nowhere in 2 years? So far, we can't exactly say what will happen.

That's highly unlikely, i think Souma was comparing herself to the original Souma since they had talked a lot about the fake Souma and the real one in the past episodes. That's my guess.

As Kei said in ep14, "She can alter anything exactly as she imagines it, as along as it isn't a living thing."
So basically she can make or destroy anything but its interesting that her power somehow connect to the rings that she wears. Like in the ep14 she put a ring on her pinky finger to destroy the stuff in the dream world or in this episode she put it on her 2ed finger, im actually curious to see what the middle finger ring do (no pun intended) as its looks like the most powerful one:

No, no, no, Souma from the pic is a copy, not the original one (pretty sure this will be officially declared in the next episode). We're talking about the original Souma that suicided, and her corpse/ashes, and what would happen if time was rewound on the original's corpse.

Oka Eri work with the Bureau to shut down dangerous ability, huh? but isn't it waste of time? because everytime she use her power to another people, the effect on previous would gone, right?

I was wondering if Ukawa destroy abilities from Sakurada, why those people still got their powers?

Seems like things are getting full throttle now. It's kinda confusing though... are the abilities gone (suppose so) or does it take some time for people to foget now that stasis field where they remember them is gone?

There are certainly many ways to restore them now (including photo or some Bureau's people abilities but I honestly also don't think it's good to have them around. Kei is kinda obsessed by abilities, it's nothing good.

Wonder how this arc ends next time, I fear about Sumire if nothing else. As she probably knew the abilities gets removed (although she is purpotedly locked by Oka Eri?)

It is somewhat ironic that Oka Eri is going around being the Bureau's lapdog. So much for all that big talk about being a villain. She's nothing but a henchwoman.

I suppose the only way Kei could stop this is by proving Urachi orchestrated the whole thing? And that therefore abilities aren't as unstable as they seem? But even then, the fact that it happened at all, that it was so easy to put into motion, I feel like the Bureau will be ready to erase abilities regardless. I'm not sure if Kei's talk no jutsu is strong enough to stop it.

I wish Kei was still the genius he was in the first cour, planning everything and always winning. I don't understand why he didn't reset, could have just called Misora before and tell her to save before Ukawa used her ability.

There are a lot of questions so hopefully the last episode of this arc will answer a lot of them, at least the ones regarding Sumire.
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones!
