Sonny Boy

It about growing up

Yamabiko left me reflecting on his true desires and the projections he wanted to see in that world. Why did his own world treat him that way? Who was wrong? Yamabiko or the man with the hat? Personally, I think they're both just human.

The final episode was confusing, considering the whole plot. It centralises the return to the real world. Nagara wasn’t able to adapt, but Mizuho helped him. We can’t change our worlds, but it is the world we have chosen.

They bade farewell to Nozomi. Although they have informed everyone to attend her funeral, no one appeared. Later, Rajdhani made a dramatic comeback and helped Nagara to come to terms with Nozomi’s death. Leaving behind their loved ones, they set out to return to previous world.

The God enlisted Asakaze with the task of killing the War. We find Ms Aki, Asakaze, Nozomi and Kosetsu on a voyage to pursue Wat. Kosetsu’s power was revealed before us, and we got to know who has feelings for whom. This venture of killing to change worlds is rather nihilistic.

The Twins fight each other even though their fighting serves no purpose. The cats are discussing something related to copies. Even though Rajidhani was able to recognise it, he didn’t disclose it to others. Maybe it will be revealed to us later.

Yamabiko narrates his story from the past. Retelling the incidents that happened before his transformation into a dog. The introduction of Kodama is interesting. It can be compared to someone from our real world who saves others, even knowing the process may harm them.

Everyone just follows the rules without questioning what purpose their work serves (carrying blocks downwards) – it resembles the ways of the real world. Nagara becomes the target of hate. Yet he is determined to find a solution by creating worlds. Let's see what follows next.

At first, it seemed that Nagara might have found a solution to go back. But it didn’t work. Once it passes, we have no hold of it. No one can change past events. All that matters is to follow into the future. This message is beautifully portrayed in this episode.

Necessity brings people to the verge of choosing whom they are about to follow. Here, Students shun Nagara as it benefits them in hating him. Meanwhile, the flashy Asakaze becomes the prime choice to be followed. In the real world, it is also the same and justified.

Metaphorically portraying the baseball game to describe the drive of competition in humans is splendid. Nagara’s superpower is defined, although he hasn’t had the power to control it. Lastly, the appearance of Ms Aki foreshadows the upcoming plot.

Black figures were found around the Island, and further investigation revealed that they were some students. Nagara & Mizuho investigate further and realise that it is the students whom no one notices. Later, they found a remedy. – This is identical to our Society.

Discussing and determining a phenomenon – how is it happening? For whom is it happening? – These questions arise in the minds of all students. And they single out a student easily. Similar to how it occurs in the real world, it becomes easy to choose the victim!

A deserted school in darkness, where students get superpowers – the anime started with a peculiar plot. In general, it seems similar to our real world. Animation is quirky, and the pace is pretty high. All over, it's okay to say it will be good.

The finale brings everything together with a strong emotional impact. The visuals remain simple but meaningful, and the quiet moments land more than any big reveal. It doesn’t over-explain, but the character conclusions feel complete. 9/10, memorable FINISH.

Sea horizon guides journey—nostalgia visuals purpose haunts emotional. Close perfect 9/10.

Crimson veins bloody war—island shatter brutal scaling peaks. Intensity raw unhinged.

This episode stands out for how it blends visuals with its meta ideas. The framing and scene transitions feel intentional, making everything look unstable but controlled at the same time. It’s confusing, but in a way that keeps you engaged. 9/10, unique WATCH.

This episode slows things down and focuses more on character presence. Yamabiko’s scenes stand out, with a mix of calm delivery and underlying tension. The atmosphere stays consistent, making it quietly impactful. 8.4/10, reflective WATCH.

This episode leans into its abstract style, but the visuals make it work. The shifting perspective and strange imagery create a strong sense of unease, and the pacing gives those moments room to breathe. It’s confusing, but intentionally so. 8.5/10, unique WATCH.
