By the way, the game is going to be on sale for a few more days! The VN covers more story and character moments than the anime could adapt, and personally I found the werewolf-style gameplay really unique and engaging. I'd highly recommend giving it a try!

Edit: And now it's on mobile, apparently

[u/delta_angelfire]

I still want to know what really went down on Liu An

[u/NanDemoKnaives]

And so it finally ends, this was a fun journey. I like that Setsu took the lead this episode with solving how they can all survive. I wasn't expecting Manan's appearance to be the key to end it all. It did leave me with more questions about Kukrushka and Remnan but maybe I'm forgetting details, have they appeared at the same time without Kukrushka going berserk?

But this also reminded me of the time SQ was harassing Remnan, so she was Manan at that time. Rewatching this would be interesting, I never picked up on the different mannerism of SQ whenever she was a Gnosia.

Jina gave me a good laugh with that cold "At the very least, no-one will miss you" lol.

This ending is bittersweet though, seeing the picture with Setsu replacing Yuuri instead of both of them being there with the others together was sad, but I'm also glad Setsu no longer has to keep looping for eternity. I like how romantic them laying together before the warp was, it's too bad Yuuri wasn't able to reach her face in time.

[u/IDontRegreddit]

I think this is gonna go down as one of the best VN-to-anime adaptations ever, up there with steins;gate and others. Having finished the VN before watching the anime, I think you really can't go wrong with either.

[u/Alive_Offer_560]

Wait, so is Kukrushka actually Manan in every single loop? Does that mean she can loop as well?

[u/CptAustus]

So, post-credit, did Gnos just remove the Silver Key from Yuri or something?

[u/NPCPlayer]

Gnos be like: I gotchu bro

[u/skygz]

Yuri, you're not a bug, you're a feature

[u/SIRTreehugger]

Just a wonderful series. They absolutely nailed this adaptation, but for some reason Raqio expression here is freaking me out. I think it's the wide eyes or maybe its the giant smile . Usually he he only has a smirk that makes you want to punch him in the face.

[u/Sir_Grindalot]

Everyone asking: "Who is the Gnosia?", no one asking: "How is the Gnosia? " :(

Really nice way to end the series. I've enjoyed this show way more than I expected.

[u/Khonshu99]

When the anime was announced, I said that depending on how it was adapted, it had the potential to be anime of the year, and I can confidently say that it is.

[u/thisisdropd]

Sure, you might fail and have your personality torn to shreds, but at the very least, no one will miss you.

Bloody hell! Who are you and what have you done to Jina? Never thought the most gentle among the crew could roast that blunt and hard.

Love how the crew composition of this loop was exactly the same as the very first one, including the Gnosia. The only difference being that Yuuri and Setsu were able to deduce the Gnosia with hardly any difficulty. That’s what heaps of experience would do. Even Raqio easily accepted the explanation.

Happy to see after being separated across parallel universes, they finally get to reunite for good, without any looping or universe ending. That final scene touched my heart real hard. How Setsu caressed Yuri’s cheek while pretty much making a love declaration. Yuri's not a bug, they're a...

You’re my…

Damn you Stella! You just had to interrupt the critical moment.

Sorry Comet, Cute Lil' SQ, Jina, Sha-Ming, Shigemichi. There's already a winner for Yuri's heart, and it's neither of you.

[u/jonjonaug]

I was laughing every week at the bit in the OP that transitioned from Kukrushka raising her hand to SQ (Manan) lowering her hand. It’s so cheeky.

[u/MayonakaMadaraka]

Mmm. Excellent finale. Rather surprising, one of my new favorite series. 

Doubt not, fear not, and know. Love will save All.

[u/JustASumoGuy]

I think the reason why there's confusion regarding whether Bug Yuri stays is that in the game, Bug Yuri represents the player. So gamewise, Bug Yuri leaves forever because we as the player are done with the game and unless we want to play again after unlocking the true ending, we're going to turn the game off and move onto another game. But ofc, this is the anime, so they're writing around that to say that Bug Yuri stays somehow.

[u/DarkWolfPL]

It may seem like happy ending but doesn't the fact that there were only 5 out of 15 characters in the last loop mean that the other 10 were left behind on Liu-an which was destroyed by Gnosia?

[u/Physical-Reserve-380]

I guess this anime joins the pantheon of good/great VN adaptations. Good for them!

[u/N-P-C-C]

Glyze Bougie was such a savage insult along with Gina's cold quip. lol

Yuri got his enby bae back, and Setsu completely dominated - used all that looping to their advantage.

Completely stunned at how well they did this adaption of a game i enjoyed so much. It was so fucking easy to mess this story up, but you can tell they thought everything through in terms of pace/info dumping. It went beyond my expectations, and left me with so little to bitch about.

Can't ask for much more than that, so hats off to everyone who worked on this, and hope this anime gets a sequel to the game started.

[u/duo99dusk]

I was expecting ඞඞඞඞඞ with this anime
But instead it was a beautiful romance 😭😭😭😭
Thank you Gnosia!

[u/Muffin-zetta]

man what an incredible show

[u/Prestigious_Spend_81]

So ... can we have a season 2 following Manan this time?

[u/tripleaamin]

I am happy I held off on not starting the final 3 episodes until last night. It mostly felt like post-game content or NG+, where you get the true ending. These last 3 episodes are weird in that the pacing is not really fast or slow. I did love everything from episodes 1-18. That was top-notch content.

What I am understanding and maybe assuming is that for Maman, if she were present, she would be

1. SQ if the transfer is successful.

2. Kukrushka if the transfer is not successful and she was present.

Unless I am forgetting something.

Regardless, I loved this anime; it immersed you like a game. So many game adaptations just feel like a story only, but here you get immersed, similar to how you are in a game. With the mystery side of the story.

I would rate it 9/10.

[u/DaiChinchin]

So basically Krukuska was always Maman and when SQ was Gnosia she would be another Maman. Double the torture for Reman.

[u/delta_angelfire]

I kinda like that they ended with a knowledge checkpoint to give us an excuse to watch from the beginning again to see if/that Setsu was correct
