| A good ending to 12th episode of the series. Ai meets an alternative version of herself which was.. it was eh, but I'll let it pass. I really hate that antagonist figure. She seems like a pandora wanna be from re zero (god like/unbeatable, mysterious figure) and even though I like pandora, I can't stand this overpowered WEP character. She's just so annoying. I feel bad that Ai lost her eye and even with the extra episode in june, I'm still a bit unsure on how they are planning to conclude everything. This series started out fantastic with a strong 9/10 for me but it sadly went downhill so I'll settle for a generous 7/10 overall. I'm looking forward to the final episode in June |
 |
| Well, shit. This needs a 2nd season desperately. I had this at a 9/10, but I'm giving it an 8/10. Frill and the backstory of the world need more developing. Ai still needs to be developed, too. We've seen the incentive for her to change, but I'm not sure how to feel about it since that hasn't been executed yet. Yes, she's changed since the 1st ep, but she needs to learn how to to grow as a person without relying on her friends. |
It ended but there are so many questions left unansweres. I think the special episode that will air in summer will be the actual final episode or maybe this will get a 2nd season. In any case, I'm still happy. |
| I didn't understand, and I don't think anyone understood xD |
 |
| Kirara Rodriguez Matured XVIII Evening Star SS Plum Wtf was that name LMAO. I felt that because of the last-minute parallel world "Ai" popping out from the egg, the episode became really hard to follow. I hope the "special" episode coming out in June will be able to conclude the story properly. 7/10 as of the moment. |
 I accept random friend requests! |
| Okay so after waiting and me falling asleep in the process I finally watched it. This kinda dark episode and we learn more about the other Ai and the teacher being a creep. Also, I was so confused between the two Ais when both had school uniforms, but the hairpins they had were different. The alternative world Ai had grey pins forming an X and the Ai we have seen has a yellow triangle pin Thankfully not the real conclusion as we all have heard that in June get a special that is going to be the conclusion. In my opinion, the episode was okay and I'm not writing an explanation of it now since this is not the conclusion.^^ |

| Hmm...that was hella confusing episode |
 |
| This show could've been much better if its production wasn't a mess. I feel bad for the animators. They made everything look beautiful but got hit by the production team. I still don't think all the mystery can be resolved in the episode that they will air in july but it's better than nothing I guess. Hoping for a double length episode. |
 |
| I'm glad there's one more chapter because I didn't understand any of the ending 😂 I quite enjoyed it, although this kind of series is not for me 7/10 |
| Man I didn't wanna say this, cause I had high hopes for this anime, but a plain bad episode. *sighs* The starting with the girls interacting was ok. But the entire dream sequence felt poorly written. Koito-chan's characterization was butchered. She is nowhere near this weak to commit suicide cause of this silly provocation. If I don't get more explanation in the latter special episode, I may rate this even lower. And how does this double suicide work actually?! In this world, Ai doesn't commit suicide. And in the bootlegged parallel world, there is no Koito chan whom Ai Mk.2 knows. So how?? 1/5 for this episode. The anime drops from 8 to a 7 at the moment. EDIT: Just a little clarification in case anyone missed. Some have given this episode a 1 thinking that this is the ending. I'm not included among them. |

| Honestly, this is what I hate with Anime getting different entries cause one episode didn't manage to fit in the broadcast shedule... So now I got to wait till the 29th of June till the conclusion and on a different entry as well. How the fuck do I even rate this lol... Overall a great show, but having this end the way it did, I still need answers for a lot of things. We'll get it eventually late June, but still so confusing. |

| Jesus christ people change their opinion literally at the last second to go from "Best anime ever" to "Biggest dissapointment ever", many of them probably not realising the full story is not even complete I can understand the frustration, I really do. This series has been hit hard by a very troubled production which had to cut out an episode to give the animators room to animate, and this kind of troubled production could have been prevented with better planning or just not having multiple anime airing in the same week. Still, I feel it is so disingenious for people to completely trash an anime for its current 12 episodes and not having a proper ending while completely ignoring all its strenghts it had shown troughout the whole series: It is still a masterclass of directing and animation, it still tackles very real modern japanese problems, it still has characters which are interesting and have multiple layers, it still has heart wrenching moments that will stay with me for a while. I have some genuine criticisms, like how this anime thinks having a lot of themes is the same as being deep, or how it handles too many themes, or how you can clearly see when the production begins to suffer, but those are minor complaints in the grand scheme of this great show. I am glad the anime community didn't sleep on this and I am glad that I watched this show. Also, when will the 1s bot spammers be removed? It should now be a pretty obvious issue to MAL staff. |
| I'm looking forward to the special episode. I really hope it wraps everything up because they still have a lot to explain and go into more details on. Also was there a reason Ai's hairclip kept changing when the other Ai got shot? One second The one saying good luck me had the other hair pin then when it showed her eye missing it was the original hair pin. It got really confusing and I was unsure if the real Ai was the one that died ... |
| who's gonna tell those 705 people that this wasn't the final episode? |
Ashhk said: I didn't understand, and I don't think anyone understood xD I have a strong feeling that they deliberately made this episode incomprehensible in order to at least somehow end the anime and promise OVA. |

RobertBobert said: It isn't a good idea though, most people will forget a lot of elements when the OVA will be released, and the incomprehensible episode 12 isn't helping at all with the parallel worlds if you want to properly follow the story until the real last episode Ashhk said: I didn't understand, and I don't think anyone understood xD I have a strong feeling that they deliberately made this episode incomprehensible in order to at least somehow end the anime and promise OVA. |

| I'm kinda annoyed at the fact that Ai asked Sawaki-sensei why Koito died in episode 10, and then the writers forgot about it. Plus, all those characters they introduced by the end (Neiru's friend, Frill, etc.) ruined the flow the series had going. But this episode in particular was not that bad. Ai got to meet an alternate version of herself that had committed suicide. Even though the execution wasn't anything outstanding, it was still an interesting concept that allowed a nice dynamic between the two Ais. Suicide Ai regrets what she did, and she says she wants to be as strong as the original Ai. And then Ai-1 says that it's silly because they're the same person. And that's a pretty good message all things considered. I laughed when Sawaki's enlarged head threw in that art is an explosion Deidara line. It was also revealed this episode that Sawaki isn't a bad guy, and all those creepy hints throughout the series were due to Ai's perception of him. But then we hear him say "You should die before you grow up" while Ai and Koito were standing on the ledge. So did he provoke them or not? I'm getting mixed messages, and honestly, at this point, some of this should have been revealed. The last episode should be them piecing everything together, not a massive info dump + Thanatos battle + Character arc conclusion. To make matters worse, Ai was like "Y'know what? Maybe I don't wanna know what was up with Koito-chan." And just why would you backtrack with an out of place, 3 second flashback at this point? They've been teasing this Koito mystery the entire series. I also thought the scene of Ai losing her eye was messy. I was keeping track of the hairpins, and they switch around, and the flashforward was thrown in the middle of it. I just don't see the need for this to be so convoluted. I'm just gonna hope the special episode rectifies this somehow, but my expectations are low. I really liked this show pre-recap, so for now I'm giving it a weak 7/10. |
| This was a really interesting episode, and I hated Ohto's eye getting absolutely destroyed. I'm really confused as to why they made a special episode to conclude a series, rather than just have us wait another week or two for another episode. What is the point of having to wait 3 more months. |
 |
| If this was actually the last episode, half of me would be thinking “that’s it??!” But the other half would be racking my brain to figure out what the creators were really trying to convey. Thankfully I won’t have to, because that was never their intention, and are going to conclude properly in June. I didn’t fully understand it then and I definitely could barely follow this episode. Ai’s alternate reality self and the best friend who committed suicide (or maybe they’re the same person what??), what’s going on here? All I could pull from it is that someone redeemed them self, somehow. At the end of the day I didn’t fully understand this show, but that doesn’t mean that I didn’t enjoy it or didn’t appreciate how it told its story. Just about every aspect to this anime was really good. But still wasn’t really my cup of tea. 5 or 6 out of 10. Might boost the score in June if it has a good conclusion. I hope it does |

| Just finished it a minute ago and still processing, 7/10 but might drop to a 6. The anime took a different turn from episode 11 and I even forgot what the initial premise was. Maybe the OVA will clear things up But I need to take a moment to appreciate how GOOD the OST of this series is. I'm going to be listening to it a lot. Such fun sounds |
 |
| The first half of this anime were really good, but the second half were a little disappointed for me, and I didn't like this episode very much, let's hope the special episode can explain everything... 7/10 for now... |
| is this actually how it ends? a special episode is coming out in june - will that finally give closure to all the unanswered questions? so ai loved both koito and sawaki sensei at some point then.. but we still don't know the true nature of him nor koito's suicide. neiru's story is also very much unfinished. in fact all of the mc's stories are not resolved. shame this could only occupy a 12 (13) episode slot.. if it had more I'm sure there'd be enough time to clear everything up- even the dummies' story too (but I really can't give a damn about that). but I guess original anime can't risk something like stars align happening. ..and this was probably going to be my anime of the season ;-; what a shame.. it was an amazing series up to episode 11 |
 |
| no one wonders why best girl momoe acts so mean in this episode |
 |
| Pretty disappointing. Hopefully the special episode planned for June will be longer than usual, because there is no way everything will be resolved in just 20 minutes (if they ever want to resolve everything properly of course, what I'm not even convinced they plan to do). |
