Well, here’s the heart shattering episode I’ve been waiting for. So, we begin where we left off, with Ayumi sick in bed with a fever. Yu leaves her to rest and goes to school, the helper comes into the room and tells them that another person with an ability has been found, the ability is called ‘Collapse’ which sounds like a fairly dangerous ability. The location of the ability user, the condo complex where the schools students are located.
Which limits the people it could be down to ‘students who are home sick from school’, well, whoever it was that commented last week that Ayumi might be developing an ability gets a cookie.

Yu is understandably shaken up by the possibility that it’s his sister, and with a dangerous name like ‘collapse’ for the ability. I don’t blame him in the least, none of these powers are perfect and there is no promise on how it will show itself or when.

So Tomori wants to go check up on it, and since Ayumi is a huge fan of Yusarin. So they throw Takajo out of the student council rooms window and go off to cheer Ayumi up.

The beginning of the episode is light hearted, fun, the girls have a lot of fun eating dinner together. Ayumi gets two nosebleeds from the excitement of meeting Yusarin. Ayumi’s friends from school come to visit her and wish her well. Though something is off, one of the girls seems pretty angry about something. At first, I thought perhaps it would turn out that she was the ability user.
I was wrong.

The reason the girl was glaring at her, was because the guy she liked had now developed a crush on Ayumi and she was jealous. Super jealous, WOAH YANDERE MIDDLE SCHOOLER WITH A BOX CUTTER JEALOUS. So basically, after Ayumi’s fever goes down, against her brothers wishes. She goes to school and is confronted by this yandere girl with a box cutter.
Who intends to make her feel pain for stealing away the guy she liked. Even though Ayumi turned him down, like, twice now. She chases Ayumi through the school and corners her by a door that won’t open.

The student council finds out that she’s gone to school and rush over to check on her, however, they and someone else. Another person who ran into the school, flashing some sort of ID badge got there too late. As Ayumi got cornered, she began to panic and it caused the collapse. The whole section of the building collapsed in on itself, with Ayumi straight in the center.
The yandere girl is fine, but Ayumi is dead? NO, you have to be kidding!? What about Yu? He runs into the wreckage and tries to dig around for his sister and the last thing we see before the episode ends is some rubble about to fall on him. Does Takajo save him? What does the scene after the credits with the helper mean?

What the hell is going on in this series? Who is that other girl who rushed in? Is there some sort of time travel thing going on here? I can’t believe that, well…I can, because this is P.A. Works…but Ayumi. What the hell? I knew from the story of Tomori’s brother that this series was not going to be a pile of roses, hell, from the minute i saw the company producing it I knew it wouldn’t be a happy series.
This is just intense though, I was starting to think the central drama of the series might be their forgotten brother or something…

I really like this turn of events, though it makes me very sad. I’m curious about a lot of things and really hyped for next episode. Now excuse me while i cry for hours.
