It’s been really hard to form coherent thoughts on this episode for me. Some of the things I like are also the things I’m having trouble digesting, mainly Kagari’s personality. On it’s own, I think it’s entertaining and actually pretty good, but on the other hand, the fact that it belongs to Kagari, and her importance to Rewrite, is what I have a problem with.
If I were to look at this episode alone, not taking into account what consequences it has later on, I’d say I definitely enjoyed it. I laughed, and even the moment where Kotarou gets teary eyed over hearing from Kotori got to me a decent amount.
As for where the anime will go from here… I have no idea, and my predictions are limited. It’s going to be interesting, no matter what happens. (Although, interesting doesn’t necessarily mean good)
EDIT: Forgot to mention the OP and ED. Really, really like both. I’ve heard “End of The World” quite a few times, but it works quite well with the visuals that they had. The ED sounds nice, that’s for sure, but the visuals for that were derp-y just plain weird to me, despite the symbolism.
