People change a lot over the course of time. A common thing that older people reflect on is how much more or less impulsive they used to be, for example. Or have you ever thought how your life might have turned out if only certain things did or didn't happen at key points? For instance maybe you asked someone out and they said no. What would your life be like if they had said yes instead?

Is there a place to get the novel translations or summaries? (Both if possible)
Also how many eps is this planned thus far, only 13? It seems like a good series.

Episode 3 was probably one of the worst episode I could watch for any series alike. Honestly, the change of animation direction was for the worst: very awkward animations (especially Tomo and Reishirou running), skipped frames, awkward design, horrible camera pan, and especially RANDOM and STIFF poses and "change of art".
Spoiler for episode 3, big rant:
*rant off"... at least the plot itself was moving tad a bit, and certainly brought some interesting elements regarding Reishirou faction and the Asura Machina/Shaetai matter. But the quality aspect of this episode ruined really everything... I certainly hope the animation direction will be set back to normal, because the ridiculous meter is reaching the "so bad it is funny / unlimited facepalm work" dangerous boundary.

I just started watching out this episode and it seemingly gives of the vibes of Chaos Head as an anime. I was pretty much thrown out of whack when he is attacked by a supermoe miko, a kinky looking senpai and a group of holey knights for no apparent reason over something called Asura Machina (Demon Machine in Latin as I figured).
The storyline seems pretty random and ambigious, but I shall continue watching due to the generous helping of a cliche filled harem. Schwarzchild Darkness : Has it got something to do with black holes? A Schwarzchild radius is when all mass of an object could fit within that radius, it could cause the mass to collapse upon itself into a singularity (i.e black hole). Is it just dark matter or what?

Looking on Wikipedia, I wonder if it has something to do with the fact that The third episode: 絵コンテ 演出 has 斉藤良成 listed.

Episode 3 ... urgh. While scene transitions were never this anime's strong point, episode 3 simply felt painfully jerky most of the time. And what happened to the animation, both quality and style vise, .... as already noted, it felt like SHAFT took over, and on a very bad day at that.
Spoiler for episode 3:

Though I wasn't really bothered there. (Actually, kind of liked it? ) But for this anime... Very obvious, not necessarily in a good meaning. Quote:
When you say it that way, kind of feel sorry for the guy. About what? The plot, the plot inconsistencies/odd parts, or the 3rd episode's incredible visuals?

I've watched the first two episodes of this, and I think it's fairly decent. Although, just as others have said before, the main character seems quite annoying, as he's your typical loser thrown in a situation in which he'd rather not be. I think I'll be sticking to this just for Misao, and perhaps for Takatsuki as well.
I'd really like some novel spoilers on this.

Episode 3:
Spoiler:
That was the first thing I thought of as well. I didn't find him annoying at all...until I saw the stuff he did in episode 3. I hope that was just an aberration. Many of the complaints people had for the first episode were the complaints that I had for episode three. Strange turnabout there. |

I haven't seen the lastest episode, but can Misao interact with normal things/people at all? I initially thought not, for obvious reasons, but she has been placing her hands on Tomoharu's shoulders/back during confrontations. Instinctive support gestures, I guess? She did ride on the bike in ep. 1 (could have just been floating along, though) and she blocked one attack in ep. 2, but that could be an energy thing.
