The Day I Became a God

First, I have to praise the animation and soundtrack, as they stayed consistently beautiful throughout the entire anime. They were easily some of the strongest aspects of the series. As for the ending, though, I found it rather underwhelming. I was expecting a much stronger emotional payoff, especially from a Jun Maeda anime, but it didn't quite deliver for me. Even so, I still had a great time watching the series, and there were plenty of moments that made the experience worthwhile.

I must say this episode was a lot better than the previous one. The setup was much simpler since it felt like Hina's character had been reset, so it didn't need much development to make her actions feel natural. I could really feel the stakes Youta was facing, and I'm genuinely questioning whether all the time they spent together was real or not.

The episodes have become much heavier now that the anime is approaching its end, which is typical for a Jun Maeda work. Instead of feeling sad about what happened, though, I found myself more annoyed with Youta. His actions felt so unnatural, as if they were written solely to fit what Hina's father said in the previous episode. It came across as forced, making the scene feel less impactful because it didn't match how I expected his character to behave.

As an episode that serves as a major turning point for the anime, I must say it felt pretty weak. The emotional scene, which was supposed to be the highlight of the episode, didn't land as well as it should have because, honestly, there wasn't enough buildup to support it. The lack of proper character development made their actions and emotions feel unnatural, making it difficult for me to connect with the scene.

I can really feel that the plot is finally progressing in this episode. It does a great job of giving us a glimpse into Hina's past and provides a lot of important information. Although the shift feels a bit sudden and I think it still lacks some necessary buildup, it's a welcome change from the more filler-like episodes before it.

This felt like another filler-like episode, with the main focus being on further developing the characters' dynamics and showing how their relationships have grown so far. I really enjoyed the experience, and it's especially appealing when I stop worrying about the plot and simply treat it as a nostalgic slice-of-life memory. That said, the episode did provide something important at the end that connects to the overarching story and the backstory of one of the main characters, which left me very curious about how the story will progress from here.

I'm enjoying this anime more and more with every episode. I really like how they incorporated flashbacks to give us more insight into the characters' backstories and relationships, and I especially appreciate the friendship between Narukami and Ashura. The Charlotte reference was also such a pleasant surprise, and it made me feel nostalgic for that anime.

This was such an emotional episode, and I think they did a great job portraying it. I could really feel the emotions of each scene, and the soundtrack did an excellent job of enhancing their emotional impact.

This episode felt more like a gag or filler episode, as nothing really happened to advance the plot or provide any significant new information. Nevertheless, I still enjoyed it because of its comedic aspects.

Despite my first impression that this was one of Jun Maeda's weaker works, I'm really starting to like it now. Even the comedy, which felt forced to me at first, has really grown on me. And now that the plot is finally starting to develop, I think it's only going to get better from here.

Dado el rumbo que habia tomado el anime tenia ciertas expectativas para el episodio final y pues si, cumplió. Debo decir que es un final muy emotivo, de esos que te sacan lagrimas, no me parece un final feliz, eso si, pero esa es mi opinión ya que me sigue pareciendo cruel lo que se le hizo a Hina y que, por muy emotivo que sea el final, no lo compensa. Y ya que no nos mostró algo del futuro de Hina para ver si Yota cumplió o no su objetivo, se queda como un mal protagonista aun con esta decente actuación en este episodio. Aún así, muy buen anime. La animación se mantuvo constante y el soundtrack a la par.

Este episodio es el mas triste, mas cuando recuerdas como era el personaje hace apenas dos episodios atras, el verla en ese estado la verdad lastima un poco. Ya eso lo hace dificil de ver pero el protagonista no ayuda, esta peor que en episodio anterior. Parece no entender el contexto de donde está, decisiones erroneas, intentos de rendirse, además de intentar forzar las cosas, todo mal. Me resulta muy incomodo a este punto, dado el tema delicado que se esta tratando, que el protagonista no sepa al menos comportarse según en el contexto del lugar donde esta, no parece racional. Pero bueno, le queda un episodio para poder redimirse.

De los peores protagonistas que he visto, Hina le ha carreado absolutamente todo en la vida, esperaba que al perderla hiciera, como casi cualquier protagonista, algo para lograr salvarla, pero no, no hizo nada en un año, es de lo peor. Literalmente tuvo que venir otro personaje a, nuevamente, carrearlo, que horror. Tan horroroso y triste como el final de este episodio, que injusto el cambio de este anime.

Jun Maeda's signature formula was really apparent in this episode. It starts off with a lighthearted tone and plenty of comedic antics before gradually shifting toward a more serious topic. I really enjoyed the comedy in this episode, as it was both hilarious and packed with references.

I really like the premise and the soundtrack of this anime. The story was set up beautifully, and the character introductions were handled well. Overall, it was a pretty entertaining first episode, but I couldn't help comparing it to Jun Maeda's other works. While I enjoyed it, this pilot episode felt like a step down from his previous anime in terms of impact and emotional hook.

Este episodio ya dista con los vistos anteriormente, tomando un tono mas oscuro y hasta deprimente, desde el pasado de Suzuki hasta la revelación de Hina, es un cambio muy radical a la trama principal que se nos habia presentado desde el primer episodio. Espero que no pase lo peor, seria muy cruel despues de encariñarnos con el personaje todo este tiempo.

Este episodio explora el pasado de Hina, pero a medida que avanza va dejando mas preguntas que respuestas, además que estas últimas no son muy alentadoras, sumado a que las frases finales que le dicen al protagonista te dan una sensación incomoda, de verdad espero equivocarme con lo que creo haber entendido.

La trama del episodio es entretenida, pero la subtrama que se presenta en los minutos finales son de lo mejor del episodio, y la escena final da pie a muchas preguntas de cara al proximo episodio.

Tipico episodio de festival. También se profundiza un poco en la relación del protagonista con su mejor amigo, algo que por lo general se omite. Pero lo que mas me llamó la atención es la referencia a Charlotte que se hace en este episodio, fue inesperada, random y buena.

Es un episodio muy emotivo. Pese a que el plan es del protagonista y Hina, el episodio no se enfoca en ellos, siendo el foco de este Kyoko y su familia. El ending de este episodio es muy lindo, pero la escena final es un poco chocante, porque al prota le dan todas las oportunidades y hasta ahora ninguna aprovecha.
