The finale HEALED me.

>>281123504 (OP)
I only read the manga, is the anime worth watching?

>>281125319
Yes actually, absolutely flawless visual direction

>>281125319
If you had no problem with the story like a good chunk of anons here, it definitely is. It's a near 1:1 adaptation of the manga with cinema tier production quality and a great soundtrack. It's hard to believe this was the studio's debut project.

>>281123504 (OP)
how

>>281125975
I liked the original story. So a near 1:1 sounds amazing.

>>281123504 (OP)
I knew this was gonna go nowhere and any resolution would be unsatisfying and unearned but I stuck around because it was just 6 eps. Good production quality, slop writing as expected.

>>281127320
I binge watched the entire show 2 days ago and I have had a pit in my stomach since then, this finale was so satisfying that it really eased me.

You should honestly kill yourself because your head is too far up your ass to enjoy actual art

Ueda did a fantastic job with the final cathartic breakdown

Deleted from my hard drive.

Beyond based.

I'm sorry for any time I ever said you had shit taste in anime /a/. I will endeavour to be kind like he was from now on ;;7

Was she going to kill herself before the last takopi time reset? It certainly felt like that with the ost and aimlessly walking around town with takopi and spending the only resource she had left on the bride slices.

>>281129753
takopi commits suicide
thats the original sin

>>281123504 (OP)
What I didn't understand, in the original timeline, takopi sees marina first, and she's upset because shizuka takes her bf.
But, without takopi's interference shizuka would've killed herself, so how is she alive in the original timeline? Did I miss something?
>inb4 he went back in time to kill her
he lost his memories

this anime cured my insomnia

>>281130619
this anime is good because it has a good plot.

>>281125319
yeah, the soundtrack, op and ed further enhanced the atmosphere

>>281132436
Shizuka's original suicide was a failure because she didn't have an 'unbreakable rope' i.e. the friendship string that Takopi gave her in the new timeline. Seems she didn't have the courage to attempt another suicide, which is pretty common.

>>281132523
ohh fuck i remember now, thanks

I want punpun anime now

>>281132523
Did they actually show this part or was it only implied? It's been ages since I've read the manga and I vaguely remember it being actually depicted but it wasn't in the anime.

>>281132790
I think they briefly mentioned that Shizuka failed a suicide attempt in the 2022 timeline in the anime

>>281132855
They did in episode 5, yes. But I vaguely remember there being a full scene paralleling the first suicide scene but with a normal rope instead of the happy one, showing Shizuka on the floor after the rope broke. Maybe the octopus is fucking with my memories too, idk.

More like adult actually noticed and did something
