Mirai Nikki (Future Diary) (TV).

I recall the 9th attack following quite shortly after the premise of the game has been introduced, so I don't see a problem. The events in Mosaic would be entirely inappropriate to show at this point, because it distracts from the main characters and introduces an alternate interpretation that is unnecessary at this point of the story. If Mosaic is adapted at all, I would expect is to be in DVD extra episodes or a separate OVA.

A mildly disappointing second episode. Even more rushed than the first. I didn't like Minene at all. For starters, her character design is just dumb. Also, I expect these people to be unbalanced but everything about her from her character to her plan was just absurd. It didn't even make sense or seem remotely plausible. Keigo seems okay. I'd like to see more of him. Unfortunately, given the pace, he's kinda all over the place so far. I don't mean to be negative though. I still more or less liked it and I still think the show has a ton of potential. Just slow down for goodness sake. You've got 24 episodes.

There;s something you should know. The manga ran for almost 5 years. The anime HAS to go this fast to cover everything in 26 episodes. It should really be 39-52 episodes. For the episode restraints though, most of the manga fans seem to think their doing a decent job

And I don;t see what was so absurd about her plan. Yeah she;s crazy but she;s a terrorist. Her using explosives isn;t that much of a stretch, though I was sort of hoping she wasn;t gonna be introduced so early in the episode.

Well, if she is supposed to be some kind of terrorist then it at least makes sense that she might have access to and the ability to use complex explosives. Is she though? This is part of the problem. I remember there being some offhand mention of her being a terrorist but then I wasn't clear whether they just meant that in reference to this one event or if she actually had some sort of history as a terrorist. The fact that she's a teenage girl with big poofy purple hair and an extravagant gothic lolita outfit hardly makes her come across as a legitimate terrorist so I kinda assumed not.

Also, regardless, the idea that she's gone around and installed bombs and also motion sensors in every single class in the entire school and also somehow buried a whole bunch of landmines out in the court yard is just so absurdly over the top that it's totally ridiculous. And another thing: Blowing up a whole school full of kids is kinda a massive [expletive] deal. If that actually happened it would basically be the next 9/11. Future Diary or not, that is so not the kind of thing you just hop on a bike and drive away from. Plus, even if you somehow do manage to get away, is it really worth it to have to deal with being pretty much the most wanted person in the country for the rest of the game just to maybe kill one person? I gotta think there'd be a much better way of doing that.
