Havoc10K:
l don't compare it to Haruhi cuz thats an insult, there are similarities, but wich anime isn't similar to another one ?
l want Tenshi to show us her character, she isn't controlling this world wich was proven with her demotion, l really would like to see her joining Yurippe now, if l'm at least slightly correct l think yurippe would be the only person who could help her move on, if l'm wrong, still aquiring her into the group and starting acting more responsibly would help them.
reusing the old trick was necessary, they use it to get the food tickets after all, the NPCs won't die if they skip a few meals, after all.
Otonashi altough not having his own memories, probably only relies on instinct and common sense right now, and bases his judgements on observations or everything taking place around him, dunno if you noticed but hes still unsure if what Yurippe is doing is the right thing or not, hes helping them because he doesn't want to dissapear, but tbh they don't really know why, l mean, if l became a worm in my next life what does it matter? l won't remember the after life, nor the life before it, who knows, maybe those that dissapeared became much stronger now and will have a decent happy life (hell l don't belive what l'm writing) that is a possibility aint it ?
they revolt because they hate the way their life went.

That's what I wrote about. Their whole "revolt" seems to be childish and built on a silly premise, at least that's what it seems now, and it's obvious that Otonashi as a character serves to question its meaning and purpose.
One thing that really bothered me, if Tenshi only developed her powers and started opposing SSS because they were causing disturbance, then why cause disturbance in the first place? I thought that Yuri regarded Tenshi as proof of existence of god at first? But then, if at start Tenshi wasn't their opponent, there would be no reason to rebel in the first place - since there was no one to rebel about. They could just skip classes if they were worried about disappearing, and leave it like that. But obviously that didn't happen. If Tenshi's powers were a response to them using the guild to make weapons - what did they make the weapons for in the first place?
I really want to read the prequel novel, time to find out if someone bothered translating it.

l didn't mean an insult that way, the two series are completely different comparing any anime for just similarities is an insult to anime shows.

I know, I was making a joke - it seem it fell flat though ;)

I saw the first chapter up on TT a few weeks ago, but it was a translation into English from the Chinese version or something. I haven't read it yet to comment on readability.
As for the ep, I'm glad they finally had a Tenshi-centric one even if a lot of it was kind of predictable. It fits kind of since Yuri is making it up as she goes along and she'll go with plots she remembered from her life. I'm also really glad that Yuri and Otonashi finally came out and said (click to show/hide)that up to this point Tenshi has been nothing but reactive in her actions.
I actually thought of the Haruhi comparison this morning, except the whole situation felt more like Tenshi is Haruhi (sans personality) and created her own personal Hell in this school with Yuri as her nemesis. It's probably a bad parallel and the series stand on their own, but whatever my kid woke me up too early.
Tenshi being normal planted the seeds in ep3 when she said something along the lines of "It's like they're making me out to be the bad guy." Right now, Tenshi is the only character I care remotely about because except for a brief flashback in Yuri's and baseball kid's memories Tenshi is the only character we've somewhat met. Everyone else is cardboard as far as I'm concerned :)
