Tamamitsune said: Kaioshin_Sama said: It's certainly a time travel anime because when I read threads on it I feel like I'm reading the same basic post on it over and over again every 6 seconds. Either people have little to actually contribute on the show or I'm stuck in a time loop. Also if you're going to run a noitaminA hype show of course you need constant cliffhangers. IMO the last couple weeks haven't really been up to par so don't see how it's getting better and better unless that's just a stock post. Gee could it possibly be the unambiguously ominous ultra creepy looking man with the red eyes that the show has been telegraphing since pretty early on? IMO this is one of Tomohiko Ito's weaknesses as a director, he often portrays antagonists, especially adult male ones as so over the top evil that there's little subtlety to it. It's not quite as blatantly obvious as that Sugou guy in SAO or Shinon's rapey friend in SAO II but I mean like come on. Yet again I'm struck by how I can be so far off from the general assessment of something, especially when it comes to subtlety. Like to me there's nothing particularly subtle about this show, it's so on the nose with everything like most J-Melodrama that it kind of hurts sometimes,but too each their own. Not going to take people's assessment of a hype show too seriously here. The amount of cringe I get from reading your posts about erased, sure it's obviously your opinion and our opinion on how good the show is, but you gave fate/zero s1 a 7 and s2 a 6, you also gave sao a 6. Are you a troll? Trying to tell me Fate/Zero is on the level of the garbage called sword art online? The fact that you even put fate/stay night higher than fate/zero makes my brains hurt. From now on I'll just consider you as a troll whenever you talk about erased. also you seem to giving high scores to a LOT of hype shows which is ironic but to each their own Sorry I'm not a robot. I cringe off of reading most of the posts about this show here too. All the same generic posts for the most part |

| Damn, I even forgot he did manga lol But that last scene though!!! |
Sorry for my bad English  Humans see what they want to see |
| Yes, a revival is coming! |
| so Airi's mom set her up to catch Satoru? jesus. literally only 3 trustworthy people in this entire show. |
| that is my guess |
Smudy said: That ending scene was hype as shit. That smile resembled the teacher's, i'm very sure. Yea it does, the hairstyle too... But the face looks too young..there arent any wrinkles... And if i remembered correctly, that nishizono guy has wrinkles... Im so confused (yes i have read the manga but im still confused, maybe that's the anime's intention??) |
| It's too bad that Satoru isn't the director, because this series could use a revival. |
LoneWolf said: @Josh makes me sad to call myself Canadian. |
| That damn manager trying to take the credit of saving Airi...... I say the killer is either Satoru from the future or the teacher. That cliffhanger though ;c |
Lmao! I thought Hiromi was a girl tbh xD |
| Don't keep me hanging again! Great episode, wonder what's going to happen now since the revival has been activated. |

| Damn, I was nervous the whole episode about Airi's survival.. She had a death flag in every scene omg :3 Need moar Kayo. Another revival please! Baka na no. |
| Wait for next episode. A revival is coming! |

Sokah said: namea said: The ladies are simply on a walk in the park with a child which is not strange at all. But it's a standard that adult men are in work during that time of day, so seeing one in the park is odd. No, it isn't. You'd have to live in a world without shift workers, students, unemployed, people that work weekends, part timers, people that are sick, people that are on vacation, people that walk through parks as part of their job etc. I have a park behind my house. The only thing odd here is women thinking it's odd a guy is walking through a park. Also, two school-aged boys in park during school hours and that isn't odd? No, that was just a very poorly thought out scene. What I found odd was their plane floating down the river at the end. Are you taking into consideration the story takes place in Japan? Satoru is 29, thus he should be employed, normally. Most men are in work, except some groups like NEETs that are shut in home (and they wouldn't like kids interacting with someone of those anyway), thus it's unusual to see the guy taking a stroll through the park like that. I think Japanese are quite sensitive when it comes to pedophiles, they warn children when someone suspicious is wandering around and such. Japan is considered pretty safe country, but things out of routine strikes them as odd and put them on alert. Sure, it's not very nice to be suspicious of every guy talking to kids, but it's not really that surprising. I really don't see where is that scene poorly thought out, but...*shrugs* To each his own. Out of topic, it's weirding me out how people go "this can't be happening, it's completely unrealistic" so easily. Just because you don't have personal experience or it's not common for your country, it doesn't mean it isn't normal somewhere else ne? Normalcy is a very relative term. Try to be a little bit more open minded? I'm sure you'll enjoy the story (not just this one) much more, people. |
| Oh, I didn't realize Hiromi was a boy either |
bobzanny said: Manager still a piece of shit and Airi trying to come in clutch but still failed. Satoru being a boss this entire episode and taking the mountain of bullshit like a champ. Glad that we are going to be adapting my favorite chapters now which I personally consider the best part of the series. Can this series get better? It will be my favorite anime then :v |

gabrielrroiz said: Really? I just keep never finding reasons to care for anything that happens to satoru in the present time knowing that any time a revival will happen making all the dramatic things that happen pointless Why would they be pointless? Everything in present time so far seems to be related to the past. So nothing's pointless, honestly.[/quote] it is pointless because it will have no consequences why should we care if satori is getting arrested or even if airi gets killed by the murder if at any second a revival will happen and undo everything? |
| Not to mention that what he changes in the past doesn't automatically reset his future. From his perspective as a character in the story, if he is able to revive back to the past (which he at this point has only gone that far back once, so he doesn't know if he WILL), he may be down to his last chance to catch the killer and fix his future, because otherwise he will return to the present where he is currently in police custody. The last revival didn't undo anything (he was still being chased by police, right where he had left off, even though some details of Kayo's death had changed). |
| "I'm going to post something that tempts people to click on my spoiler by suggesting that the story takes a negative turn. And people who don't click on it will now think that they aren't going to like where the story goes!" Real smooth. |
TheServant said: gabrielrroiz said: it is pointless because it will have no consequences why should we care if satori is getting arrested or even if airi gets killed by the murder if at any second a revival will happen and undo everything? Not exactly. As we know "the revival" cannot always solve everything, just like what happened to Kayo. Even though Satoru tried to save her, nothing's changed. So him having that power does not mean every problem can be easily solved by him. He cannot even control the power, so it's not exactly on his advantage. no he can not control the power but by the power of plot convenience the revival woks in any the satori wants it to work also i know it may not be a easy thing to solve but it appears that satoru can try as many time as he want to go to the past and change everything |

That never happened. Maybe you could elaborate what you mean? I think you do not understand what plot convenience(a.k.a. Deus Ex Machina) really means. You should try reading this --> http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DeusExMachina The anime never established that Satoru can try as many time as he wants. Even then, like I said, him going back to the past never equals he can change anything he wants. the anime never established satori can not go back to the past in any moment because there are no rules about how time Travel work in that setting and as there is no rule about how time travel work in that setting him being able to go twice back 20 twenty years in the past to the time kayo was alive is plot convinence |
| Well Airi didn't die that's good. Now that they introduced another character - the reporter - then we have two possible suspects now first one being the teacher. But from what it looks like in the ending, the red-eyed guy fits the teacher's profile better. The biggest shock in this episode though is the fact that Hiromi is a boy like wtf? So far the plot is progressing in a good pace although I think the current rating is a bit inflated considering we haven't even gotten to the climax yet. |

| It's a nice touch that Airi's mom chose to believe her and help her out. Sawada genuinely looks like he wants to assist Fujinuma, but the red eye foreshadowing he had makes me questions his true intentions. Besides, why didn't he ask Fujinuma's mother for the murderer's name and he was basically the only one who knew Fujinuma's mother had an idea of the identity of the killer before she was killed. The final minutes of the episode also showed the killer being at the place where Fujinuma was was caught. Does that mean the killer is affiliated with the cops?! That could explain why the killer's name is not on any suspect list. Next episode will surely be a revival, but I wonder how far back; before Hinazuki's death or after. I hope before... I want more Fujinuma x Hinazuki please <3 |

"I have been wielding a blade since before your were swimming around your father's scrotum." - Kurou |
| Mmm, I thought it could be the elementary teacher, but he really don't look like him. Also, it doesn't stick to the fact that the same thing happened in a neighbour town. Of course, it could be just a lure, but it seem to simple that the murderer would be a ordinary psychopath. It look like there is somekind of meaning behind his actions. |

There are no clear rules about it. Even Satoru barely knows how it works. So for you to assume he can go as many time as he wants is nothing more than a speculation, which something you cannot bring up as a proof to criticize an anime. Like I said, please go to the link that I just gave & try to understand what plot convenience means. Because if you do not understand it, then our conversation is pointless. And I do not want to be involved in a pointless conversation. Sorry. i fail to see how the coincidence of the way the revival works is not a plot convenience to resolve the conflict of the series |
| Great episode once again though it's kinda frustrating to see the scheming bastard smiled in the shadow,and i can't get inside my monitor to headbutt him. |
