This arc seems much better than the first one, I actually almost dropped the anime because the last arc was so confusing but this one will definitely keep me watching.

Also that opening was really good and made Kotarou seem a bit OP which is exactly what I want, and the episode itself kinda confirmed that :D


If you found Moon Arc confusing, you will need to rewatch it again. Each detail was important there to understand what is actually happening, why the world ended in Season 1, and why this is ultimately called Rewrite.


Rewatch episode 1 to 3 of the second season. It's very important.

Kotori as a kid is really cute, but her mind is very sharp though, so it's no wonder that her and Kotarou's personality clashed many times. Still, it was nice to see him rescue her dog and helped her feed him properly. =)

Speaking of cute, Akane as a kid was sweet when she could only say 'Papa' everytime Kotarou spoke to her. =)

The new OP was nice, but the ED song was simply powerful, even in 90 second form. I'm really impressed.

Other than that, it was a really good start to the Terra route.

This episode was pretty confusing to me and hard to understand completely. What was with that military thing at the beginning? and the whole thing with the environment and the loli girls. guess that's what i get for being an anime-only viewer

in medias res. Not everything has to make sense at the start. It doesn't take a VN Reader to know new arc + new OP + narrative dialogue + reintroductions = this is a new world, da capo, etc.

I guess something tragic happened to Kotarou, before he became a soldier at a young age on this timeline. I like the new OP and ED, fits the atmosphere on this episode.

Great episode and it was probably my favourite one so far. That OP was so freaking hype and the ED was also quite good.

As for the episode itself, it was nice to see how moody Kotarou was in the past and chibi Kotori being so savage as a kid. Chibi Akane was also pretty cute.

All in all, despite the quick pacing and transitions in this episode, they adapted pretty well the beginning of Terra. Can´t wait for more, especially in order to see Mr. Bond in action! ^^

I was initially disappointed that Rewrite wouldn't be the OP, but the new one is pretty good overall, so I guess it doesn't matter now. As for the episode, pretty solid and damn young Yoshino is way to cute. Great to see a face on Luiz aswell.

It doesn't matter if you're a VN player or not to be able to understand this episode. Just watch the last 3 episodes again. This arc beggins in the exact same way as the visual novel so you're basically feeling the same thing we felt.

A new timeline started?? and so Koutarou was 10 yrs older than S1 timeline and now I undrstand why in the 1st scene of ep14, Kotori said that the Koutarou she knew wasn't cheery but dark and gloomy......

Loli Akane and Kotori were the cutest kids.....also Yoshino became a fanboy. Still, Esaka-san quite aged a bit in 10 years!!!!!!!

And Just 2 Questions to people Who Know VN :
Kotarou Will Die In Every Time Line and Every time He will Save by Kotori ?
Does Kotarou Know Anything Or can he remember details from Moon ?

Pay attention to the last 3 episodes and you'll understand. Really, is not that hard to figure out that this is a new worldline. But now the events started in the past, before Kotarou got injured by Earth Kagari.

Yay! It was good again. And it's a condensed version of Terra. Nicely done, too.
Of course art is still garbage tier, and that OP song was f-n' awful. Not even generic, just horrible. At least ED song is better.

I watched 3 episodes I understood what was going on but seriously what the fuck was that military scene? How does it tie to this douchebag version of Kotarou? They found the solution and where the fuck is that? They went back to earth but there shouldnt be anything on it so dont tell me I didnt understand. It's because they are not telling anything.

You're not supposed to know what the military scene means at the moment. But in case if you want to know, here's a spoiler:

Pretty good episode. The first part with the military stuff surprised me and all of sudden, it came back to his student life.
It was interesting to see Kotarou's past and how he met the girl for the first time.

Little Kotori is so so so cute <3. I love how she talk and acts like a mix of kid and adult behavior.

I remember when I was afraid to watch the second season, but no, this season is definitely better.

Yeah, it feels that way because unlike Season 1 it's directly adapting its source now which was (IMO) very good.

We're in for a wild ride as long as they stay true to the VN, and it's just as interesting for those of us who've read it because it's still stylistically different even though the plot is the same. You see, there's a ton of Kotarou monologuing in Terra, and it's part of the reason this last route is so long. So seeing things actually happen instead of reading them through the protagonist's head is a breath of fresh air.

So is this just another alternate reality Kotaro and he already knows about all the other girls?

Still pretty confused about basically everything even though the Terra route just started. Curious how it will end considering I've seen a few posts saying "I hope my heart can take it" lol

Hm, this was a nice episode I guess. Maybe I'll put this on-hold and wait for it to finish so that I can binge it. But anyways, is anyone else just as sad as I am at the fact that Kotorou is no longer the same age as everyone else in the Occult Club? I mean I know it was mentioned earlier, but it's still sad...

Woooowwww... Serious Rewrite just ain't for me. Like, it ain't... too bad... but... I'm not really enjoying this all that much. I don't care about the characters enough to care about what goes on during these serious moments. I only enjoyed the first season because of all the time they spent goofing around, and coffee girl. Coffee girl was great. All I got from this was MC going the Edge Lord route and those ugly CG raptor things with character development. Not enough fun. Just ain't feeling this. So I'm out yall. Enjoy yall rewriting.

4/5.


Terra route/arc (S2 episode 4+) is like Kotarou's backstory or past (10 years ago), BUT it's not a flashback or a time travel, they are living like 10 years ago AGAIN because aurora bring them back to life in earth, and humanity re-evolved. However this time Kagari completed the Theory of life and something different can happen now.

Why is Kotarou older than girls?
R-
Kotarou was older than Girls all the time (yes, since S1). If you re-watch S2 episode 3 you see a short backstory about Kotarou, the same 10 years ago Kagari almost killed him, Kotori saved him using a Kagari ribbon in his arm, closing his wounds *, and he got in coma (Kagari ribbon has aurora attribute, a forces which help to create life, this is too the reason for Kotarou using different claws in S1), as side effect: it stoped him from aging. When he woke up (after 10 years) he didn't remember that well what happened and starts a "normal life" (school, etc... S1).

* Maybe Kagari ribbon transformed him in a Kotori's familiar (or called monster in anime) like Gaia monsters, Chibimoth (Pero the dog) and Kotori parents. If you watch S2 episode 1 begin with Kotori calling him a monster.

Finally my exam session is over and I can catch up :3

Aaaand my favourite route in Rewrite gets animated, woohoo! It's been like 3,5 years since I've played it though, so I barely remember anything. I absolutely LOVE cold and quiet Kotarou, not counting Tomoya he's my favourite VN protagonist. Loli Akane is too lovable <3 Loli Kotori on the other hand is just an annoying, arrogant brat, can't stand her, ugh.

New op song is decent, but definitely not my favourite. Animation wise it's poorly done too, which is really sad, usually even series with half-assed animation have at least nicely looking OP/ED sequences :v Oh welp, not in this case. Ending song is also kinda boring, but maybe both will grow on me in the later episodes, who knows.

S2 is at least acceptable until now, but the first season is a bad adaptation, however, you can't skip it and complain like "I don't know whats happening" totally your fault, so I gave a peek and saw that you have rated it ... I don't care, because Rewrite for me is a VN and not this anime that is lacking a lot of things (I don't even rated the S1 because I can't recognize it as Rewrite).

much better flow (excluding Bond part). So back on earth, Kotarou & loli Akane, Kotori & Yoshino seen in new reset. Supposedly Key returns to earth too, and Kotarou's emo vs cheery personalities clarified since ep1. He's cheery because Kotori made him so as a familiar when saving him.
funny Iko. Didn't know Akane was an orphan. No one remembers past lives, but Kotori being mean genius, maybe she recalls something.
Ojiisan group looks much younger now. Seems he'll join them much earlier than s1.

I thought Kotarou would reborn with his memories intact from his past selves. Sad he forgot about all of them :(

The new Koutarou and Kotori are pretty cocky XD
We're finally getting to see the past of Koutarou. Curious how it'll diverge from now on.

Also, the new OP is awesome. It makes Koutarou look so badass XD
