Holy fuck /a/. This anime is really fucking good, especially when compared to all the other shit that's airing right now. I just caught with the 2 eps, and I fucking love it.
Why the fuck aren't you watching it? Also, what other new series is worth watching this season? Everything's pretty shit.
Great, another /v/ attracting anime.
shh.. we dont talk about good anime on /a/
>>136157919
I will wait until the 4/5th episode,since that's usually the point in which A-1 starts fucking up its adaptations.
>>136157919
NTR, that why im not watching it.
>>136158017

Hi, IRC!
This is probably the best anime that's going to air this season. Great story, amazing OP, amazing ED, animation is good. What more could you want?
>>136157919
>ntr shit
No thank you.
>>136158123
good threads in /a/
>>136158123
Not even top 3.
>>136158173
What's your top 3?
>>136157919
They make Satoru look like a fuckboi, in the manga he is badass
>>136157919
Dimension W is pretty damn good
Grimgal is alright
Boku Dake is definitely the best though.
>>136158173
Try to name a better anime this season.
You can't.
>>136158285
I can't fix your terrible taste, that's correct.
to all you newfriends: learn how to ignore bait and reverse bait
for fucks sake
The music is being done by Kajiura, Yuki and the Director is the same as Sword Art Online, they can't possibly screw this up. Right guys?
I don't want to be bold but this is the best anime of 2015 and probably 2016Manga has better voice acting though
>>136158303
kill yourself faggot
Holy fuck cut this NTR shit out. It's /a/'s cuck meme and you sound like children. If you read the manga and you legitimately believe the events at the end constitute NTR you've been brainwashed and need a good long walk out in the real world. Then jump off a bridge.
>>136158303
wiNTR is coming
>>136157919
Yeah it's pretty good. A shame that the NTR meme has killed the threads.
>>136158309
>music is done by Kajiura
Really? It's a fucking miracle we haven't seen anons complaining in threads about Kajiura doing always the same shit.
>>136158298
I can't fix you. Only you can fix yourself.
Kill yourself.
>>136158388
it is a good thing
maybe this way newfags and people who didn't read the manga stays away
>>136158172
let's go for peace for all mankind while we're at it
Well at least this garbage keeps /v/ and Reddit contained so the actual good shows can have good discussion.
>>136158356
It's funny because it's not cuck but it considered NTR because it technically count as one, there's nothing to be mad about it though.
I know nothing about this but is there actually NTR?
>>136157919
I'm not watching this because I only watch 3 anime per season. But if I find time I'll try to watch it because of all the people talking it's good.
>>136158473
No, it's honestly just memes.
>>136158490
Don't fall for it, it's bad to be honest.

Same with their original stuff.
Great premise, promising start, then after a few eps they manage to fuck it up anyway.
I'd say Working is their only recent show that's consistently good.

It's more like the author cucks the readers than any characters getting cucked. He dqngles the KayoxSatoru ship in front of us the entire story and in the span of a single panel, he crushes it.
>>136157919
>Boku dake ga Inai Machi
We called it ERASED.
>>136158747
OPM was amazing, especially if you read the manga before hand and saw all your favourite scenes animated well with a good OST. The only bad thing about it is the bandwagoning.
>>136158818

You memed us so hard! Thanks for the spoilers but I'm still going to watch it anyways.
>>136157919
The second best this season so far. Check out Rakugo.

>But this one is decent (so far)
No
>>136158767
>baby's first butterfly effect
Double standards. It's not so special if you watched more than 500 anime and read 200+ manga. And it will be popular you know? Popular among "normal" people. You should hate it
i can see the fire
>>136158818
Wow, it's not like everyone on /a/ has already read the manga.
>>136158914
While I agree Rakugo is good, I just found it to be too slow and boring for me. I probably won't watch the rest of it. I'd rather watch edgy anime and fap anime because I have a short attention span and a simple mind.
>>136158924

>not NTR
Are you guys still in denial? Just because Satoru was happy that she moved on and had a fulfilling life (after all it has been 15 years) that doesn't mean he didn't like her romantically as a kid.
It's still fucking NTR even if the MC is alright with it, it's just a realistic take on what would happen with a time skip like that, and any hard feelings were certainly overwhelmed by happiness from coming back and seeing everyone well and safe.
And it's OK, it doesn't detract from the story, because romance is not the focus, but don't be fucking retards and start denying any romantic developments he had with Kayo as a kid, because the author sure played that up a lot.
gonna watch the show but I am gonna hide the threads here like a disease
they are like shitposter containment threads
>>136159001
How new are you that you didn't think everybody knew this already?
The only reason to watch this is because of the cute loli. Rest of the show is garbage 2bh
>>136159038
It's not shoujo. Besides, one of the best anime of all time is a shoujo so get the fuck out, newfag.
>>136158986
Have you actually seen it? Boku Dake is much slower and has less comedy. It's less easy to digest I'd say. Though both are still rather on the light side.

This. Last season Subete looked really promising, but it just completely fell apart. It's only the second episode of this one and already it's turning into a melodrama.
>>136159140
Just because you know how to use greentext doesn't mean you belong here. Plus, it's nice how you totally avoided the fact that you were objectively wrong about the source material's demographic. Now fuck off.

It's okay if you're angry, the best part of the manga was Satoru discovering it was him anyways.
>>136159220
Who are you quoting?
>>136157919
So far it's been pretty good, but still not my fav, that would be Galko-chan and GATE, you should try them. This is a great season, I'm watching over 10 series, the last time I did that was on spring last year.

Go away reddit.
See. I can do this too. Best anime of all time is shoujo, my fuckin sides.

Boku Dake was a lot more interesting though. It kept me hooked, plus the episode wasn't nearly as long.

>>136159042
Dude, it did not count as NTR due to their relationship fall apart because he's in coma and Kayo can not bear it at some point and moved on not because some netori guy.
It's butthurt and MC and Kayo bore romance feeling toward each other but this is NTR at all. There's no bad guy, it's just pure tragedy.

Samefagging this hard. It had potential, but it panders way too much to those lonely women. Doesn´t help that the mangaka did some yaoi stuff before. The reason Boku dake is number one, is cause is tell a tale of second chance without dwelling into powerfantasies and waifufaggots. And no, let the show finish before you say "bu-but the loli and the pizza girl".

It's not NTR if you have any sort of reading comprehension.
Was invested but was spoiled and so now my expectations have plummeted.

why
>>136159976
>guy saves the girl and deeply in love
>when he wakes up, he sees her with someone else's baby
>>136160050

This is where you are wrong and the NTR meme falls apart.
>>136158653
A boy (Haruta) and a girl (Chika) solving mysteries in the music club. It's lazy but Chika is charismatic, so I like it.
>>136160079
ok but he saved the girl so she must have waited 15 years
>>136160047
Cause it's apparently the bar none AOTS if not AOTY after like 2 episodes and MAL losing it's fucking shit over another passable A-1 show yet again. Apparently all they have to do is something like this for people to go completely fucking ballistic over a show and call it especially beautiful when if anything it just looks like their production quality is still holding together. I don't know what it is about this show or if people are just starved at this point for anything kind of mature and dramatic in a modern setting but like fuck if it's not the easy winning formula with Western audiences. Now enjoy the inevitable hype backlash and shitposting for it all folks.
>>136159042
And that's not NTR, anon.
Let's say this guy>>136159322 gets it.
>>136160189

>>136159976
I think you're the one without reading comprehension, he clearly had romantic feelings for Kayo.
>>136160195
Source material doesn't matter
If anon feels like it is NTR It is NTR
>>136160185
He had many many reasons for saving her though. She may have liked him due to all the shit he did for her, but she moved on. I guess it would have been sweet if she waited decades for him and an actual relationship may have been started, but the author chose to go for a more realistic approach which is fine, but not NTR.
>>136160050
>guy saves the girl and deeply in love
It's puppy love not deeply in love.
>when he wakes up, he sees her with someone else's baby
He's in coma and she moved on from him before this happen.
See?
>>136157919
Ir eally like this Anime. Probably the only good thing to watch this Winter besides Dimension W which is my favorite so far
>>136159786
>implying Boku Machi doesn't pander to lolifags
There's a reason they're so upset about the non-existent NTR.
>>136160257
The people have spoken clearly, just look around you. It's a pretty scarce season too so it stands out all the more, that probably has a lot to do with it, that and the marketing and just kind of show and tone it invokes. It's literally at that point where you just sort of have to even attempt to do those sorts of things in a Winter season and people will lose their fucking minds over your show. Standards are incredibly low when it comes to anime and it's current core audience after all. Either that or impossible depending on the names involved. I mean Shouwa Genroku is a pretty good off the beaten path show and Dimension W hasn't even been that bad either but neither will ever be as ridiculously revered as this show is already with the Deen label and some largely unknown studio label like 3HZ attached to it at any point.
>>136160354
Nah, they´re just too invested in the MC and the loli. They will get over it.
>>136160365
AOTS is a meme and we're not even past the third week yet.
you people need to calm down.
>>136160354
>non-existant NTR
It's NTR alright, on a reader level, it's definitely a shocking twist that upset many people, because they were expecting the author to actually follow with the romantic setup Kayo and Satoru had.
>>136160195
I'd say it's still NTR, just because it doesn't have Satoru suffering over it (because I understand, as I say, that it's quite a realistic take) it doesn't mean the author didn't intend for it to be shocking after he had written all the romantic setup between them.
The amount of NTR-deniers in this thread scare me
>>136160365
this season is one of the best we've got in a while
its just that you are too much of a reddit to enjoy good shows like pandora and sekko boys
just stop spouting "this season is shit" every season and start watching anime or get the fuck out
>>136160488
>they were expecting the author to actually follow with the romantic setup Kayo and Satoru had
Speak for yourself, anyone that was expecting a 10 year old girl to wait decades for a person that might never wake up is just delusional.
>>136160504
This is the purest form of love, with no sexual desires involved
>>136160504
At least they didn't interlock their fingers.
>>136160365
Maybe on MAL where A-1+noitaminA is pretty much an instant ticket to top 50 all time status. They've literally managed to overhype and put this show on such a pedestal already that it's already in their top 30. Not that I care about MAL rankings but that's the kind of reception it's getting elsewhere, it's apparently just utterly perfect for being an okay 7.5/10 tier actually decent noitaminA that's currently on schedule show so far.
Then again I also remember people insisting how smart and witty their last noitaminA run Subete Ga F was last season and just oh so pretty and beautifully animated for again just being kind of okay looking. I mean fuck to me if there's a show that's surprising good looking this season it's Dimension W's premiere. I liked how it portrayed a setting besides modern Japan and schools especially and to be honest I found the cinematography just as good if not better than this show. Frankly I'm not even seeing what people are raving about cinematography wise so far in this show. Like what you put a letterbox format on something and suddenly it's ingenious directing? I mean I know anime is in a massive rut with shit incompetent directors everywhere who just look to cut corners mainly but still.
Do japanese have the same kind of discussions?
Or only weebs are NTR fags?
>>136160488
I think you confuse NTR with 'plot twist for shock value'. Again, this is not NTR in any sense.
>>136160552
Shut the fuck up about the reddit meme. What does that even fucking mean. Use actual words and descriptions that hold meaning otherwise I have no fucking idea what you're even trying to imply and it's you that needs to get the fuck out
>>136160576
Do you want them to cancel the show and burn all copies of the anime?
>>136160634
that would be preferable to animating the NTR scene
>>136160634
I would have fap material for the rest of my life. It's a fair tradeoff.
>>136160607
>What does that even fucking mean
It means you have to go back there to discuss your mature anime for mature people like yourself
>>136160577
It probably just reminds them of Steins;Gate, another pretty good show that was apparently the absolute greatest thing ever that I just didn't realize.
>>136158097
I'd fuck that mom so hard.
This show is bad, season is good though.
>>136160533
Because it's not NTR, Dumbass. You can said it's a shitt plot twist, suck cliffhanger and so on but this is not NTR.
>>136160662
I don't post on reddit so your dumb meme you try to use as a catch all is complete nonsense and just a dumb meme.
>>136160559
Do you have any reading comprehension? It says right there that people expected it before the twist, you fucking idiot.
>>136160603
How is it not NTR when the love interest is with another man? As much as it makes sense according to the circumstances (and Satoru actually doesn't seem to care aside from being happy that she's safe and had a fulfilling life), it's still NTR.

oxymoron?
>>136160674
I'm pretty sure that's exactly the reason. People go apeshit over stories with time travel/time loops, especially if their presented in a more "mature" format with Yuki Kajiura hype music played over the scenes.
>>136160703
If you seriously call this series the only and best series this season then you'll surely find like minded people there
>>136160701
It's not a cliffhanger, read the raws, the baby is Hiromi's and she's grateful to Satoru for saving her. He's surprised but doesn't hold any hard feelings, he's just happy about everyone being alright.
Airi becomes the main love interest again and thenhe decides to not meet her in this timeline so she doesn't have trouble because of him.

manchildren like you expected it. i never had any romantic expectations for satoru because this was obviously first and foremost a mystery. romance is just an extra.
while you were wondering wether kayo was waiting for him i was just wondering what happened to all the others in general. and what we ogt in the end was something rather realistic.
>>136160825
id murder the entire class for kayo
NTR ENDING
>>136160712
The fact that the MC went into a coma is a plot twist. Kayo having a baby with Hiromi is not a twist and makes complete sense in context.
>>136160916
Face of a mind-broken cuck.
>>136160916

The baby is his
>>136160701
>shit plot twist
Which is what makes it NTR duhh.
Or plot-twist is some special form of media term that it does not apply to anything else? like turning one genre into another?
>>136160789
Fucking read then cause I never said anything of the sort, I said the community at large is absolutely losing it's fucking mind over this show and that it just strikes mere as merely competent and okay as if A-1 is actually somewhat trying for a change which is apparently enough to be considered AOTS with their level of marketing and influence over the masses. Time Travel+Older character+competent directing/adapting+playing some Kajiura music apparently makes you the absolute show of the season if not year to the anime community now after only 2 episodes and the shows already fucking over. That fucking easy, that's the point I'm trying to make. In the end it's either going to suffer from a massive hype backlash now or be the next massively overrated A-1 Pictures melodrama adaptation in the end like Your Lie In April.
But I guess none of that matters, you just want to use your dumb meme so go on then.
>>136160970

>>136160898
>manchildren like you expected it. i never had any romantic expectations for satoru because this was obviously first and foremost a mystery. romance is just an extra.
I expect all aspects of the plot to make fucking sense. I know romance is not the main focus but if the author wasn't going to do shit with the romance aspect aside from the shock value of the twist, it's a fucking waste of time.
I really think you're the manchildren here, expecting people to hold the same low expectations as you.
>while you were wondering wether kayo was waiting for him i was just wondering what happened to all the others in general. and what we ogt in the end was something rather realistic.
Are you an idiot? I was expecting to know about everyone too, and I understand the circumstances of what happened, it's obviously a realistic take on a time skip, that doesn't mean I have to like it.
>>136160913
That's some dedication.
>>136161008
No way. The mom, wouldn't let that happen without her supervision.
>>136160962
Makes sense in a realistic way, but it's definitely a twist considering how much setup there was between them.
/a/ is surely fall into a new level of low if people seriously arguing about whenever it's NTR or not.
>>136160712
>the love interest is with another man
Because she stop being one before she's with another man?
Dude, it's a plot twist not NTR. You can called it a cheap twist because the author was a dick but that's it.
>>136160825
I want tohold handswith her.
>>136161064
Doesn't explain who the father is.

Hiromi, read the raws.
>>136160791
what went wrong with airi?
did they remove that part from the manga?

Pretty much unfortunately. Even the slightest kind of weepy melodrama is enough to make anime fans lose their shit now. Just look at what Maeda is able to do and how popular shows like Your Lie In April are. Bonus points if your show involves cute girl dying. I mean fuck this show already looks ready to invoke the anime fan melodrama standards with the implication that the childhood friend girl character is a goner, they even did it while depicting snow which invokes the likes of Kanon and many a live action Japanese melodrama. It's no wonder the shows so popular when it's playing those sorts of cards. God forbid if they actually show the childhood girlfriend dying and Yuki Aoi gets her Oscar speech scene with Kajiura going buck wild on the sad songs it invoke so many anime fan triggers that they will switch to calling it the anime of the decade I can see it already.
Was curious on what the plebs thought of it. And fuck, they are loving it with 10/10 reviews already before the show even reached episode 3, and is rated top 40 of all anime shows. Well, I can´t say much since I also like it, and we have been starved for a good show since Ping Pong.
>>136161036
>Time Travel+Older competent character+competent directing/adapting
I like all of those, and so do most people, nothing wrong with it.
>>136161188
No, it's something that happens further into the story.
They did remove a lot of her scenes though.
>>136161113
The moment the MC went into a coma, all expectations of Kayo and the MC having a relationship were lost. At the very least, the fact the Kayo had moved on should have been on the backs of everyone's mind once he woke up decades in the future. If you were fully expecting her to wait for him after the twist the that's just delusional.
>>136161184
Raws, do I look like some Korean to you. I can't read Chinese runes.
>>136160970
MC is happy
She is happy
Everyone is happy
Anon.... Anon is butthurt as usual
They are never happy
They draw their NTR forks and burn them all
>>136160825
This might seem pretty fucked up, butl'd love to just go for a walk with her.
Again, sorry if this was offensive.
>>136161195
While Maeda and April is pure garabge, I see nothing wrong with Boku Dake, is telling a story that is rarely told in the way it is told. MC is a character too, so that helps.
>>136161017
>shit plot twist
>Which is what makes it NTR duhh.
...I better fuck off at this point.
>>136161232
does it mean he goes forward and back in time a few times?
>>136161073
anon, you don't get it. it's all your headcanon.
even satoru wouldn't expect to have a future with kayo after what happened.
they were simply not at that part of a relationship. it'd be ntr if they actually had signs of a relationship before the incident.
this early in the relationship, anything can happen. especially if kayo is still in freaking grade school.
>>136161270
>Guy goes back in time and relives his childhood, save this girl he didn't talk to from the killer, her shit home, and abusive mother.
>Gets in a coma. While he's sleeping for 15 years, he lost his second childhood years.
>When he saved her from death, she's getting pounded in bed by other men.
>>136161329
Think SG but MC fails less than Okabe.
>>136161073
>>136161073
>if the author wasn't going to do shit with the romance aspect aside from the shock value of the twist, it's a fucking waste of time.
Have you ever watch 5cm/s? Because that's what he did with MC and loli. It's not a waste of time.
>>136160552
Sekko Boys? Are you kidding? That series is shit from its core
>>136161449
MC is better man than you and I will ever be, that´s why we like him and hate the faggot trap, and the culprit putting him in the coma.
>>136161339
that's what a cuck would said
>>136157919
It gets really dark.
Also people only like it for the women abuse lol
>>136161449
You have to remember that saving her was necessary to save his fucked up future. He didn't go back in time to relive his childhood and play good samaritan so he could fuck a 10 year old.
>>136161195
Or, you know, the show could actually be good this time around.
But I know that won't matter because in a month or two /a/ will completely shit all over this show because it's popular. It's already starting to happen. This place is so predictable.
>>136161256
>The moment the MC went into a coma, all expectations of Kayo and the MC having a relationship were lost.
Speak about yourself here, plenty of people still had expectations.
> At the very least, the fact the Kayo had moved on should have been on the backs of everyone's mind once he woke up decades in the future.
It was a possibility, yes.
>If you were fully expecting her to wait for him after the twist the that's just delusional.
It made sense from a storytelling standpoint. Did you really expect the author to waste so much romantic setup in a cheap twist just for shock value? Even if he wanted a realistic take on the coma, he retroactively made all the cute romantic scenes into a waste of fucking time that could've been used for more useful stuff to the plot.
She doesn't even appear after chapter 35, it's like the author used up her character after the twist, it's understandable in the sense that Satoru wouldn't want to bring her into his last stand against sensei, but she's hardly even mentioned, even though she was so important for most of the story.
Satoru accepted it, and I do understand it too, but I'm just baffled about all this denial over what happened. So many people saying shit like "I expected it" or "he never liked her in that way" when it obviously was a fucking twist.
>>136161213
Show is good so far, but MAL is way too easily impressed right out of the gate whenever a show like this comes along to take remotely seriously. I'm surprised only two of them have tried to review it so far and that the reviews are legible considering the place is basically full of hype kids who probably can't wait to give it 10/10 and "fit in".
>>136161477
I see.
It sounds nice
>>136161339
>even satoru wouldn't expect to have a future with kayo after what happened.
Of coure, and he accepts it that way. And I can understand Kayo too, it's still a shitty twist played upon the expectations of readers after a lot of romantic setup.
>anon, you don't get it. it's all your headcanon.
do you even know what headcanon means?
>>136161561
You seems to get all the detail then what're you so mad about?
People don't called it NTR?
>>136161554
It is good so far, just not anime fucking Jesus top 30 all goddamn time good and certainly not the cinematographic visual masterpiece people are claiming it is, especially because we've only have like 40 minutes of content maybe. It's just that it has all the cliches and triggers that sites like MAL love like time travel, dying girl, "maturity" and a Yuki Kajiura soundtrack so all the good aspects of the first couple of episodes are amplified several thousand percent at least for all the hype kids as somebody else pointed out already.
/a/ will do it's part in counterbalancing the retarded hyping and overcompensate in the long run by being equally if not more retarded I'm sure and it'll be impossible to discuss it here in a couple weeks like any other show.
>>136161545
I remember his mom died, but how did he travel in the past again?
If he did put the killer in jail and time resumed, why not hook up with her. You and others are making it sound like they had no romantic connection whatsoever.
>>136161519
5cm/s was completely about the romance and the loss
This is a thriller and mystery story with a romantic side aspect to it, if he wanted to throw romance into the mix he should've gone through with it instead of wasting time that could have used on the actual main plot, just because he wanted to have a shocking twist.
I still like it, and I read the raws even, but it definitely made the series look worse to me, because so much space was wasted in Kayo and Satoru crushing on each other only for her to appear for 10 pages after the coma and then not being mentioned again.
>>136161646
by headcanon, i'm referring to that non-existant "romantic setup" you're talking about.
because seriously, i'm not seeing it. some people called it puppy love, and i thought of it as something along those lines too.
don't get me wrong, it's a little dissapointing for sure. but not entirely unexpected. and certainly nothing as heavy as NTR.
Anime is simply amazing...In less words.It has a great plot and the in
very first episode you will love the main character and his
uniqueness.While watching anime you will be getting the feeling of
watching a movie this the first i've seen which delivers that.There are
scenes which will make at the edge of the seat before you know it.The
voice actor of the protagonist (Shinnosuke Mitsushima) was his debut
and he nailed it and he deserves a special applause.This anime will
keep your mind in the story till the end of the episode and that's a
big thing.It has great opening and ending song even though i don't
understand Japanese the songs are good to hear.Their are no negatives i
can point out in the anime.Art is great and it has nice background
music.Anime overall is a must watch anime if you are looking for
something good!! there hasn't been anime like this in a while..Must
watch! These kind of anime really come only once in a while.I can't wait to
watch the next episode.This anime is EPIC! :-)

Jesus fuck anons
>>>/d/
This is probably the kind of show that A-1 does best with if you look at that track records since Ano Hana and shows like Your Lie In April. I don't know why they don't just exclusively stick to this sort of thing and drop trying to do the shitty light novel cash grab things. If they did they'd probably instantly become the most popular studio out there bar none.
>>136161561
>romantic setup
It wasn't a "romantic" setup at all though. The time they spent together had to be naturally shown due to the fact that he had to stay by her side at every chance he could get to make sure she wouldn't fucking die. This includes getting along well with her, making her trust him and all those other "romantic" moments they shared. He had to act like a 10 year old that liked her and wanted to be friends with her so she would let her gaurd around him. Sure, it wasn't all just him manipulating her as the more time he spent with her, learning about her situation and how bad she has things, the more he wanted to genuinely save her.
Also, he didn't "accept" that she had moved on. >>136160970
I don't know how anyone can read this page and not see that his joy that Kayo is alive, well and happy is completely genuine.
>>136161695
Basically yes, I'm baffled at the denial of whatever feelings Kayo and Satoru had (plenty of people insist that he never liked romantically) and people saying it's not NTR when "love interest is with another man" is literally NTR, even if it makes sense in context.
all this really does make me wonder wether this page >>136160916 was meant to be a twist like the NTRfags are screaming here.
the way i saw it, it was a mix between shock and the fact that kayo had a future.
>HS has shitty video
>Commie has forced typesetting
>GJM is fucking slow
Why must I suffer so? Why isn't there a group that would just retime CR subs and slap them over a decent raw?
>>136161777
I understand your feeling, dude. I also think the coma twist suck as well.
>>136161783
>by headcanon, i'm referring to that non-existant "romantic setup" you're talking about.
>because seriously, i'm not seeing it.
Anon, you seem nice enough that I would make you a collage of all the cute romance about them, but I don't have time to. Even if you could call it puppy love on Satoru's side, she certainly held feelings for him deeper than that, thanks to him saving her.
There was a setup alright, the twist was understandable in the context of the time skip, but it was still a betrayal of reader's expectations until the coma.
Serious question time. From 1-10, how much would you love this series if the following happened:
>"Satarou"
> MC turns around
> MC´s tears runs down his cheecks
> "Eh...why are you crying?
> "I´m just happy to see you"
> "Idiot * she blushes
> She reach out and hold his hand
- No baby
- She waited for him
AOTY or you like the twist instead?
>>136161889
>plenty of people insist that he never liked romantically
Let them be, you can not force it to them.
>people saying it's not NTR when "love interest is with another man" is literally NTR
Well, I better shut up about this part otherwise it'll be a long talk.
>>136161927
because you can do it yourself
>>136162130
Bad fiction/10
>>136162080
Did you actually think the Satou and Kayo were just going to grow up together and start a relationship happily ever after, forgetting the reason he came to the past in the first place? Did you not once think that he was going to have to return to the future eventually? Did you think that all the setup with Airi was pointless too?
I seriously don't know how people were expecting him to end up with Kayo in the end.
>>136162228
Satoru*
>>136161885
>He had to act like a 10 year old that liked her and wanted to be friends with her so she would let her gaurd around him.
Anon, are you dense enough to not notice that he actually liked her when he was a child?
>I don't know how anyone can read this page and not see that his joy that Kayo is alive, well and happy is completely genuine.
Oh, I'm not saying it isn't.
>Also, he didn't "accept" that she had moved on.
He did though, he was surprised at the kid in chapter 35, and at her marrying Hiromi, but he didn't have any hard feelings about her, probably because all he could think of was about how great it was that everyone was safe and that she had a fulfilling life.
He also accepts other stuff, like Airi not knowing him, and he decides to not meet her again after he did on the hospital.
>>136162228
Because self insert
How the MC went into coma?
>>136162228
I think people that think he'll end up with eirher Kayo or Airi must be new to this kind of story.
>>136161535
Thats what a guy who self inserts would say
>>136162330
a basketball hit his head
>>136162228
>Did you actually think the Satou and Kayo were just going to grow up together and start a relationship happily ever after, forgetting the reason he came to the past in the first place?
How are those two things mutually exclusive?
>Did you not once think that he was going to have to return to the future eventually?
He hasn't done so yet though.
>Did you think that all the setup with Airi was pointless too?
What? Not at all, considering she actually served another purpose, by triggering his memories so he could remember sensei being the murderer. Her role different than just being a love interest, she's the person who trusted him, the only reason he didn't break in 2006. Him deciding to not meeting her again could very much be the greatest act of love to her.
All the romantic setup with Kayo on the other hand was a waste of time, this >>136160970 page could've had the same effect whether they were just friends or had feelings for each other, but the author still decided it was a good idea to show how much they were crushing on each other, just to make a twist out of how she moved on during the time skip.
>I seriously don't know how people were expecting him to end up with Kayo in the end.
Probably because until the coma she played the main love interest part, I don't understand how you can claim she wasn't.
>>136161195
You are genuinely funny dude, Anti Aniplex-kun, even if unintentionally so.
>>136162330
Pizza-chan gave him a kiss on the forehead.
Is the manga already finished?
>>136162756
Meme answer - yes.
Actual answer - no and it will probably end around the same time the anime does. Maybe.
>>136162756
It will be finished in March.
Does anyone finds funny how people are so understanding that Kayo moved on but they don't find it weird how obsessed Kenya and Sawada are with the murderer?
>was reading raws
>culprit-san appears after so long
holy shit

>10/10 amazing storytelling AOTY of decade

Is there a problem?
>>136162899
>Kayo moved on
romantically
>>136163202
Dude nice shitpost
>>136163245
Not really, she doesn't appear anymore past 10 pages into chapter 35.
After that, it's only Satoru, his mother, Ken'ya and Sawada (who are bros now).
>>136163288
don't you lie to me
>>136163215
the part where he decided to not greet airi breaks my heart, damn
>>136163353
I'm sorry anon, but she's completely dropped from the plot after the twist.
Airialso appears for a few pages, and after a few chapters of Satoru thinking about her, he decides to not involve her in his life, avoiding meeting her again, butterfly effect style.
