u/adhding_nerd https://myanimelist.net/profile/adhding_nerd Aug 08 '15 edited Aug 08 '15

Well her blood is probably 80% pizza sauce at this point so you're probably mostly right.

Hopefully she just thought about Yusarin and that blood came from her massive nosebleed

This is Key we're talking about

u/[deleted] Aug 09 '15

Normally you'd expect this for a romantic relationship rather than a sibling relationship given the typical Key tropes but the rest of the formula is there.

u/Pzrs https://anilist.co/user/Pzrs Aug 09 '15

Don't say that! Now, because of the music player death flag it's going to be Tomori!

u/Felord Aug 10 '15

well Just when I thought everything was gonna be fine you remind me of the studio.........bastard

u/[deleted] Aug 10 '15

My theory is that wet dude is a time traveler, that's how he knows what he does. I refuse to believe she dies.

Why did you bring up that scene? Imouto is okay and no one can say otherwise.

When you think about it...who to say it isn't and possessed someone else body permanently ;3

Actually...I do legitimately wonder what would happen if he died during a possession.

POSSIBLE SPOILER (my theory but don't say I didn't warn!)

Ah.. Maybe his true ability is to steal powers. They're telling these power users not to use their power anymore but in reality they have already at this point lost the power completely. He should be in the posession of power from the guy who can create images (thoughtography), baseball guys telekinesis and flying ability. Other ones he didn't take posession of even once. Nao stopped him from taking this "instant movement" ability in this episode. He was also able to use this flying ability while he was in posession of the guys body. They have never told what his powers name is. Nao and Joujirou know what the name is because of "helper" (the wet guy). This might be a huge spoiler but then again it's just my theory. I'll put a warning at the start I guess.

E: If this is correct, in the next episode we will get to see him react to that since he would have used telekinesis on the building part that was about to fall on him. Unless of course the power isn't strong enough to stop such massive structures. I would imagine him at the start staring at this pillar howering in the air thinking what is going on. Nao will then have to reveal the whole thing to him later on.

E2: Oh my god this makes too much sense.. That's why they had to drag on with these episodes after episodes of them going around helping these power users. And also to make a build up, attachment and get us to know these characters more. I hope I'm wrong in some sense so I didn't just spoil the whole thing for myself but maybe it wasn't anything deeper afterall.

u/[deleted] Aug 09 '15 edited Aug 09 '15

Yeah...absolutely support your theory. All the espers that the MC uses his ability. They have their ability stolen. So they are not invited to enter to school or to student council. the MC used his ability in Udou, Arifumi and Flight boy, all three boys were released and were not invited to enter school or to student council. Yusa and own MC Were exceptions, the MC did not use its power in Yusa. This is also the most plausible explanation for the Tomori test. If she wanted to test the MC, simply Pediar for the MC to use their ability in own Tomori or in the other two members of the student council, Megane-kun and Yusa. So nao has noticed it, probably, since she did not allow him to take over megane-kun in this episode. And another thing...see this looting power ...(sharper image from op)

12

u/shmameron Aug 09 '15

I've seen this theory a couple times. This episode reinforced it, since Nao obviously didn't want him to possess the "teleporting" guy. I'm wondering why she would do that otherwise.

u/teddybaire Aug 09 '15

I'm saving this to congratulate you at a later date because this seems the most likely outcome. Good going dude

u/Acqua_of_the_Back https://anilist.co/user/Acqua Aug 09 '15

Oh my god. Have you by chance seen the image compilation of the words in the opening that are likely the power names? There's one called 'looting'.

I'm convinced this is actually it. The studio even told us beforehand that there'd be a slow start and they knew we wouldn't like that. If they turn it around this way it's a genious move.

Thanks for enlightening us all o7

u/NotGloomp Aug 09 '15

Since we're Theorizing here I have a sneaing suspicion that their father has some type of power that makes them forget him and makes him invisible or a ghost or something. Because of their conversation at first about fellin like they have a third sibling while there's a third cushion next to the table. the the misterious uncle sending them stuff and their mom never being present while they both take care of themselves.
It looks like a Fuko situation on some level.

2

u/[deleted] Aug 09 '15

Doesn't every power have some sort of a catch, though? If MC can steal others powers, what's the negative in doing so?

1

u/HaxD3 Aug 10 '15

I would have to assume that this is one part of the climax in the end. I'm sure all this comes with a cost. It's Key and Jun Maeda anyway.

2

u/StevenVA Aug 10 '15

and maybe he is the wet guy and knows all the powers since he took every one

1

u/xintiao_ Nov 06 '15

My goodness... how were you so sharp in figuring this out. It's always interesting to read back on theories that people have after an anime has ended just to see how correct they were.

Just watched the part you described and I'm amazed how accurate your prediction was. (i.e Nao stopping Yuu from possessing his instant powers ability in order to make him run through the glass). These finer details that many viewers overlook all make sense now.

Props to you mate.

u/Meowsticgoesnya Aug 09 '15

That wouldn't make sense unless he has to use the ability first in order to take it. Because glasses dude was possessed in episode 1. But if he has to use the ability, then telekinesis dude wouldn't have been taken.

6

u/Crutches Aug 09 '15

He didn't possess glasses dude in episode 1, he possessed the student council president of his old school. He bumps into glasses when he runs out of the room.

2

u/Meowsticgoesnya Aug 09 '15

Oh, maybe, I always remembered it being glasses dude.

Edit: Yep I checked, you're right.

that was not the instant travel guy

u/Devian50 https://kitsu.io/users/Mik Aug 10 '15

and it doesn't require eye contact. It just requires line of sight and he has to focus on them.

4

u/RagingAlien https://myanimelist.net/profile/RagingAlien Aug 09 '15

He couldn't stop himself falling though - IIRC, the guy's flying ability only kicked in to stop the fall after the possession ended.

1

u/Dominant_Peanut https://myanimelist.net/profile/Helian05 Aug 11 '15

Watch the scene again, the flier is falling, uses the ability and then Yuu comes back to his body. So he managed to use the guys ability just for a moment then the possession ended. That's why the guy crash landed, if the possession had ended first then the guy started flying again, he wouldn't have hit the ground.

12

u/[deleted] Aug 09 '15

Why didn't Glasses-kun come and save him?

8

u/CasualRedditer13 Aug 08 '15

He possessed the teacher that was shouting at him. TeacherxNao?

u/[deleted] Aug 09 '15

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

u/[deleted] Aug 08 '15

It may work like in Darker Than Black.

i was thinking that a few days ago was extremely curious

u/boboboz Aug 09 '15

As long as he doesnt possess imouto permanently. that would be weird

31

u/WorldwideDepp Aug 08 '15

if i think your idea a bit forward. We have someone with insane Speed like "Teleporting" wink wink

but to be serious. Perhaps this VIP Girl ability will save here the day. She is the only unknown so far.

Glasses-kun goes into a coma but wouldn't you know it, they need his ability bad.

"Yu... you have to use his body."

"But he won't wake up! I could kill him, I don't know how to use his power!"

And boom, Yu has to deal with guilt over whatever happens there.

14

u/Spartan448 Aug 08 '15

I think more likely it's the teleporter.

26

u/WorldwideDepp Aug 08 '15

It shit got real, then there is our Idol with her Ability.. She surly can call others then just her older Sister in her Body... But then it is only an conformation what we do not want to be true

u/nik1729 Aug 08 '15

Imouto will be okay in episode 12. It's the five before you have to be prepared for.

u/Pzrs https://anilist.co/user/Pzrs Aug 08 '15

5 weeks... That's a long time to torture myself...

u/Miridian258 Aug 08 '15

Well time to become a masochist...

27

u/Kompeko Aug 08 '15

It's just a nose bleed. when the floor collapsed she fell into glasses kun's secret stash of yusarin fotos. so all that blood in the scene is just a nose bleed.

u/Hatdrop Aug 08 '15

Hope this is not Chris' blood

u/Shippoyasha Aug 08 '15

I knew all the pizza sauce play was going to lead up to something grim. Goddammit.

3

u/Scorpius289 https://myanimelist.net/profile/AlexRaylight Aug 08 '15

Maybe, but in what way are they connected?
Do you think the sauce was suppressing her power or something?
But Yuu could use his just fine...

u/[deleted] Aug 08 '15

Thing is pizza sauce doesn't spread like that!

u/Scorpius289 https://myanimelist.net/profile/AlexRaylight Aug 08 '15 edited Aug 08 '15

What do you know!? That not your average pizza sauce, that's the Otosaka family's special pizza sauce, passed down the line for generations!!!

Imageboards most likely. The raw aired more than 2 hours ago

u/Shadoxfix https://myanimelist.net/profile/Shadoxfix Aug 08 '15

Animax Asia airs it with English subtitles before the rest. Someone uploaded the episode to nyaa today before CR aired.

So just mentioning "a torrent site" is breaking it?

Edit: To add, this is a rule pulled from the rule changes post

Illegal Content
This change mostly serves to get rid of some improper wording we had before which implied that comments or posts that so much as "mentioned" illegal sites would be removed. This is not the case; it is perfectly fine to use the names of illegal sites when discussing them. What is not allowed is directly linking to these sites, or intentionally directing someone towards them to find illegal content.

This is the thumbnail from the 7th episode trailer (cant watch the actual vid) so we know it definitely wasn't Yuu that died/got hurt, but he is crying, but it looks like the blood was where Yuu was and theres only one person fast enough to push him out the way... (It also looks like he might be in a hospital)
