Oh and if you guys have watched ep 3 here is some shitactular foreshadowing.

They did it intentionally the bastards.

Gah that just makes me angry, What is with key and just killing off all the main characters, grrr
When I first saw this ed I was thinking they should fade the characters from the picture out after they "die".
Havoc10K:
l wouldn't bet all would dissapear except yurippe, that would be just too sad, even for Key standards, but the ed song does mold tears for some reason, and l'm affraid l will be crying like a pup by the end of the show, at the very least l think they figured out things that have relation about dissapearing, (click to show/hide) looks like just interacting with "ordinary" students isn't the only way, seems that fulfilling your goal is also key to "ascension", the girl fulfilled herself with the song she made, and wanted a lot of ppl to listen to that song, she failed in life, but succeeded in death, if he caught that ball he'd probbaly dissapear, and l don't think choice has much to do with it, situation creates it'self allowing for thisngs to finish, at least thats what l think about it

How is everybody disappearing sad again?
Anyway, episode 4 was... impressive, in a way. Right from the start it hinted at
(click to show/hide)Hinata disappearing, and played out PERFECTLY predictable. Up to the point where Otonashit asks Hinata whether he's going to disappear. Wait what? Protagonist actually noticing the same things as viewer, and not being an oblivious idiot? I'm amazed! No, seriously, I didn't see it coming, and I think it was great. Then we have the conclusion itself, and if anyone have seen that coming, I applaud you. It remains to be seen whether it was because Yui really is that dumb, or is she simply feigning stupidity, but it was completely unexpected, and subverted the anticipated dramatic climax perfectly.
Now, there was also one thing that worried me - Hinata was given something to "calm his nerves" from his senpai. I hope that we're not going to be treated to some ridiculous shit like Hinata's death being caused by marijuana overdose or something comparably stupid. But knowing how ignorant some Japanese writers are about drugs, I worry about that a little.
I don't care for baseball nor silly comedy all that much, so I didn't enjoy this episode as much as the earlier ones, but it was still good. Although Yui so far is a horrible character, she has some potential.
Oh, and the new OP is pretty nice, but it still lacks the spark to be truly great. On the other hand, the ED is growing on me.

Heh, I thought the new OP was a joke for the audition since I didn't like it at all. Guess I was wrong. :)
(click to show/hide)That's what bugged me about Inasawa's ascension/enlightenment/whatever. What was her goal in that? To have the song be heard or to save someone via music? Or both? Who did she save if it's the latter? Yui? The SSS members? The baseball catch seemed more like he wanted to change that event to make the drugs never have happened and save himself in the process. At least, that's how I saw it.
Otonashi asking if he was going to vanish didn't come as much of a surprise to me after his musings at the end of Ep3. His coming from the outside and not knowing the "rules" lets him see outside of the box. But at least he finally showed some sign of caring about anything except whining.
And, yeah, I laughed at the episode and I decided that Tenshi looked cute in her baseball outfit.

nooo
the sad thing will be her staying all alone, l like the idea that they will advance or something like, l just don't want to see her alone, and knowing her past, at least that bit that was really sad, she will be stubborn till the end of the universe if shes not gonna get pushed and facing herself, l don't think Tenshi is a bad guy, but l also don't think Yurippe is wrong with her resistance, she lost a lot in her life in a very cruel way, l think it's quite natural for her to be really pissed at God for that, l understand her completely, the sad thing will be if she will be left all alone, so far no one new is showing up, and it seems like they will only start to dissapear.
l really want to see how this will develop onwards, but at the same time l'm a bit hesitant, the story already becomes complicated, altough this episode had quite a lot of laugh, especially the broom thing :D
just as l suspected well have one or two eps of cooldown and then again some serious stuff.
looking forward to it.
