| What's with this hindi serial-ish drama... Minato regained old memories then lost the new memories after falling from a bicycle...I can't even sympathize because it all happened so quickly. Reminds me of Haru from Super Lovers who keeps losing memories after getting into accidents. So, Minato is back to his old shitty personality. It'll be hilarious if he gets into another accident just to regain the Yamanami memories. |

| They overdid it with the amnesiac tropes. It is funny that Minato lampshaded earlier that if he regained the 3 years of his lost memories he might lose his recent memories, and that is precisely what happened. Of course that is either medically impossible or infinitesimally improbable; human memories do not work like the timestamped data of hard drives which can be deleted and restored within precise date & time ranges. Hence the earlier lampshading, in order to make the plot seem less ridiculous (read more how that works here, particularly those of you who write: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/LampshadeHanging ) I wonder what is going to happen next. I bet good money that Minato will hit his head a third time but this time he will retain both his junior high school memories and his recent memories at Yamanami High School. This will cause an internal conflict between the bad boy and the good boy inside him but eventually his two sides will be reconciled and he will balance somewhere in the middle. Even if the writers think it would be way too ridiculous to have him hit his head a third time I'm sure that Minato will have regained all 4 years of his memories by the last few episodes. Plot wise it's the only solution that makes sense. edit: Minato actually had his full memories of all 4 years after he regained his old memories and before hitting his head a second time, so he's already been in that conflicted state, even if it was for just half an hour or so. |

| Looks like the preparation for the tournament isn't going to be main focus as I expected. Kinda weird no one mention Minato was an asshole, that's super strange considering everyone reactions before episode 7. Also, the coach refusing him makes no sense. Original Minato is a jerk but that could be an interesting plot point. I hope this anime is conclusive since its original. |

| Worst episode on the whole series lol But the story need this somehow.. |

| "Wow, if I had a nickel for every time an anime pulled the whole 'MC had amnesia making them forget several years of their life only to get those memories back but instead lost the memories they'd made since first getting amnesia' thing, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice, right?" -- Dr. Doofenshmirtz, probably.. and also me And it's even weirder that both anime (this and Golden Time) suddenly take a nosedive in quality after such a forced and contrived plot twist. I felt like I was watching 90s soap operas with my mother again, and that's not a compliment. What a way to completely divest any interest I had of finishing this anime. And right as it was actually starting to get fairly good, too. Pity. |

| This episode was really good, and then he fell from his bike. Getting amnesia twice is poor writing and too much. Also, Minato is incredibly unlikeable now, even if it is done on purpose. At least the voice actor did a good job with the personality switch. |
