Seems every Reflector in the show has a different motivation. Some are not with good intentions.

Tbh, Riruko needs to accept the true reality of their world.

For every good Reflector, there has to be a few baddies, and that's the case with the captured Miyako (who's become a Fragment), Hiori, Ruka (whom finds a motivation to transform) and Momo.

Feelings and emotions are pulling the red strings of fate constantly, and somehow Ruka's words and facial expressions don't match her words, but overtime it eventually will. Forgot to mention this, but the world these Reflectors fight in are boundly similar to Hand Shakers, just 2D instead of 3DCG.

Please give me reason to join hands with these Reflectors in surviving this show to meditate those feelings and emotions for the next 5 months. In the meantime, won't be trying out the game either, it's averagely niche for its own good.

Damn the fight sequences were really well done today. The OST as usual was dope too. That revelation at the end with Hirahara‘s sister being a former reflector candidate was somewhat expected. Finding out what happened to her, will give us insight into what it means to be a reflector

Another decent episode. Those fight scenes were great.

I think this anime is a bit underrated. The score is below 6 at the moment..

The power of hope and desire. The ending was rather cute though.

Nice ep. I guess it will going up nicely...
It remember me a bit of Granbelm, ... let's see how it ends, and what are the motivations of the "red reflectors"
There is again! The ultimate technique: "It's all his fault, not mine"!

Nice fight scene, some changes about the lore of the game, will or not be explained on the future, but was nice.

I'm very happy to see Yuri on the anime, but the uniform is differente, only with the 3 strips on the collar.

Very interested about how the MC sister make her friend to forget about they fighting together, maybe was something about Daath?

Probably the best episode so far. We got a healthy dose of action, Ruka finally transforming and our first twist in the form of Hiori's sister being on the bad side.

Nice episode. Yuri appeared after the battle, I didn't expect that. I love her.

Also, great OST for action scenes, as expected.

another meh episode, my biggest problem with it is the lack of everything😞 the lack of good animation like in the op, the lack of emotional voice acting, the lack of good visuals, this show is just lacking, this whole episode was carried by its ost and sound design, let your voice actors and animation carry the show, not the OST this isn't rwby

i think most would already have guessed that the other girl is the older sister of Hiori which made that "suspenseful music" at the end kinda expected (and a little funny).

Can definitely see both sides of the Reflectors eventually working together against a common enemy after resolving their differences either in the climax of this first half or start of the second half; since the other pink-sword Reflectors have the same motivations of wanting to help the girls in pain, just that their methods are too extreme. Now to wait for the twist (big reveal of the actual mastermind/villain; i'm suspecting the little girl next to Mio to be one of the true enemies), although I probably will just wait for the whole show to finish before binging through since it hasn't been as enjoyable for me as I had hoped...

The battle between Hirahara sisters very soon? Let's wait to see what is the ulterior motive of Hiori's sister. This looks pretty interesting for her to stay with the red side.

And then there was a very nice yuri scene between Hiori and Ruka.

If someone still confused who is the Girl appeared after Hiori & Ruka saving Miyako, She is Saiki Yuri who is an Unconditional Fragments that knows about Reflector and Fragments and she have a Savant Syndrome that make her become Genius and Study about Time Space

Note: Saiki Yuri from Blue Reflection game

Ruka has a quite sad past with how she couldn't help that girl at school because of her timidity and she ended killing herself, at least she became a reflector and transformed too and they managed to save Miyako, that was heartwarming, Hiori's sister is also interested since she was a reflector before hmmm

Blue Reflection Ray review. A fascinating show. The surface story is a well designed and plotted magical girl show where the protagonists try to protect other girls' negative feelings from being "consumed" by the antagonists for their own use.

But the show subverts anime tropes to create a sense of foreboding, and way the show plays with the characters' perception of reality makes the viewer question everything they see. The theme of hundreds of girls and women living with social anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome and other mental health problems is a dark commentary on the mores and structures in modern society.

An excellent Anime that is worth bing watching. It has 24 Episodes. + 24 OVA Mini Chibi Episodes all worth watching.

Storyline: 9/10
Art style: 10/10
Music: 9/10
Fight scenes: 9/10
Overall Enjoyment: 9/10

This is one of the best Magical Girl Anime and Video games I have ever watched and played. Some of the characters in the franchise. Hiori Hirahara, Mio Hirahara, Yuzu & Lime Shijō Yuzuki, Shijō Raimu, Ruka Hanari, Shino Mizusaki, Uta Kamogawa, Nina Yamada, Saiki Yuri, Yukiko Takaoka. Gust Koei Tecmo DMM Pictures Games and Anime. Reflector battles.Blue Reflection Ray is a really good Anime. You should watch it if you haven't yet. The music is beautiful, characters are lovable, gameplay is really good. Also the storyline is very enjoyable. I recommend em to everyone who is either into Anime. Or just wants a fun Magical Girl Anime to watch. The transformations are similar to Sailor Moon and Madoka Magica in a way. Some of the art style reminds me of Yuki Yuna is a Hero. Like the color schemes in some scenarios. Ruka Hanari looks similar to Sailor Mars Rei Heino in a way. This has one of the best Anime OST BGM soundtracks I have ever heard hands down. If you have not played Blue Reflection, Tie/Second or even watched the Blue Reflection Ray Anime. Than your missing out. This series is quite enjoyable and lovable. Blue Reflection Ray that takes place between the first and second game that is a must watch. Really enjoyed it a lot. Blue Reflection Sword other the girl who dances in illusions. Blue Reflection Tie.

I love Mel Kishida's art style. It's very pretty. The Anime as a whole is perfect. It may not be the cream of the crop, but it's still really fun. And really enjoyable.
