Boku dake ga Inai Machi (Erased) is a really good anime, with great potential to be a good mystery with mix of drama, but they messed up in the end with some really rushed pacing and mystery become flat and disappointing. But actually, Boku dake ga Inai machi has a really great execution is some part, a really good arc with some kick in drama that overshadow the messy part. I must praise the quality of animation too that really helped to overcome the flaw, especially the past part that has really good cinematography, and it become obvious that the team behind this animation just really obsessed with the past part over the future/present part. At this point, i think, Erased itself doesn't really need a premise about time travel (that doesn't even explained in here), because this interesting idea itself just not explored at the full potential, and they just make it like a cheap plot device and the writer doesn't even bother to explain behind this premise.

Overall, Boku dake ga Inai Machi still worth to watch, i love the climax, the drama, the character, and the animation. But don't get your expectation up because a really good start and good pacing in first and half, they become messy, really messy that a ten score can jump into four. And i think this anime deserve seven from me :)
