If the childhood friend 'wins', it will only be because the actual main girl is going to die harder than the Death-Flag Goat in Umineko. But the childhood friend is clearly, without a doubt, not the focus of the story, or focus at all really.

Childhood friends lose 9.5 times out of 10. She and the douchey soccer player are clearly supporting cast,

Well a big part of my unease with naming blonde girl as the "winner" in the end is + Show Spoiler +
like what Sent said she's got a giant deathflag thing going on. The other part of it is just small things like (blonde's conversation with friend about how friend feels about him where she says she sees him as a brother type guy....and then also the friend has been gradually realizing she's really in love with MC throughout the whole series). but neither of those things are really the focus, and could easily just be "side" stories that complicate stuff later possibly.

To me the story is blonde girl pulling MC out of his depression funk where he then would realize stuff about life (how good life is blah blah...and then fall for his childhood friend b/c Blonde girl was never interested in a "love" type relationship it's more of a "friends who understand each other through similarities" type relationship. At least that's what i was thinking/hoping this story would eventually turn towards. But that's most likely wrong since there's so much of MC being gaga eyed over blonde girl.

Depends on what you're expecting from it. I think it's horribly overrated as a deep/emotional/feels anime but it's a decent shounen in general.


I was hoping it would be as good as nodame in the emotional/feels category. But I suppose not?

it's more of depressing feels than feel good feels ..

"Main girl" and "winning" are two completely different things. Childhood friend is an irrelevant after thought who simply exists to pick up the pieces when the actual main character who is female dies.

Holy shit that death flag goat vs Krauss part had me crying. In a series focused on terror and deceit, that part was golden.

So you guys are convinced she's deadzo huh? I'm expecting a "she gets really sick but then gets better" type thing. Maybe I'm just too optimistic.

Could go either way. But with how heavy handed it has been so far, I'm not optimistic for either outcome.

She should take lessons from Aldnoah characters on how to avoid death.

Be voiced by Ten-chan.

It could be worse, she could be voiced by Hayami Saori. That's like guaranteed death.

Emi essentially fills the role of dead ex-girlfriend already.

New anime original route by original author, I'm looking forward to it. I hope it focuses on both Touka and Kaneki as main characters and see how their perspectives clash and interact since Kaneki joined Aogiri in this

So far, there's nothing that will determine whether this will be a trainwreck or not so i'm hoping it's better than season 1.


+ Show Spoiler [Yuri kuma ep1] +

I love ikuhara. I don't have much more to say. Time to do the speculah.


+ Show Spoiler [Shirobako 13] +

YAY, we're doing an adaption instead of an original show now. Really like to see how hard miyamori's job is and i find it really funny when the manga author doesn't even show up for the meeting and the editor didn't care about the anime. haha, i wonder if that is something really common in the industry. Though there are some authors that do care like NGNL's and Tokyo Ghoul's for some recent examples.

Tokyo Ghoul + Show Spoiler +
So, in the manga he doesn't join Aogiri Tree? That seems like a pretty big difference to me lol. Like it isn't really an adaptation anymore, just borrowing the characters and setting.


+ Show Spoiler +

That is essentially correct.

What's funny is that this was the original path the manga was going to take until the author scrapped it and decided that Kaneki would make his own separate squad instead of joining aogiri.

Interesting, had no clue about this. I think this episode wasn't too bad though the quality of the animation seems worse?

Yeah I thought the animation looked a little worse too, nobody on MAL seemed to have picked up on that though

haven't checked MAL yet but it stood out to me from several scenes (others seemed ok). Not a deal breaker but I love consistency.
