Struggling manga author Satoru Fujinuma is beset by his fear to express himself. However, he has a supernatural ability of being forced to prevent deaths and catastrophes by being sent back in time before the incident occurred, repeating time until the accident is prevented. One day, he gets involved in an accident that has him framed as a murderer. Desperate to save the victim, he sends himself back in time only to find himself as a grade-schooler one month before fellow classmate Kayo Hinazuki went missing. Satoru now embarks on a new quest: to save Kayo and solve the mystery behind her disappearance.
Just finished watching the first episode, seems really interesting, and the sound effects creep me out for some reason. I like it, I hope it turns out to be a good series 🙂
It looks very interesting to me. I'll let it to finish and I'll do a marathon. Even out of the Hackforums, everyone talks about this anime... I can't wait to watch it. 👍
Well they skipped out a lot of the thought process, the protagonist didn't chase the culprit, nor did the mom have a flashback of the culprit who she has of course, met before.
They also cut out the part that actually lead to the flashback, which was the protagonist being chased down in an alley.
Let's hope they don't skip half of the story of the childhood re-live too. I'm doubtful that they can fit the entire plot up to the reveal of the culprit in 12 eps though.
