    The short of it is, several people who can predict different pieces of the future need to kill each other.

    This has been updating recently, and it just keeps getting stranger. In an awesome way, of course.

    If you guys are still following this, there is one alternate version that deals with swapping Yukiteru with Akise Aru. He's the kid detective who has an idea about the diaries,who can change futures and dead ends, but doesn't have a diary himself.

    Also a prequel for one of the characters (Uryuu Minene).

    Can't wait to see what the 11th's diary is. Seems to have deadly accuracy so far.

    Updated. A bit disappointing, in that little happened. But it looks like the next two will be big.

    Sorry for the bump, but this updated today for anyone that's interested.

    What the fuck, time travel? I'm not sure how I feel about this.

    Looks like we're down to the last two or three chapters.

    I need more explanation about the how and why of the
    time travel
    before I pan the idea. It could work.

    EDIT: Don't know why the hell Yuki remotely trusted Yuno all this time. I can understand for most of the manga he needed her help, but all his other "friends" died telling him that Yuno couldn't be trusted, something he was questioning for the entire manga, really. Silly boy gonna' get axed.

    By the way, I get that Akise was a genius and all, but how the hell did he come to that conclusion?

    'cause at the end she was the only one left?

    Everyone else he knew had been killed.

    What I want to know is; WHy does him knowing about her being from a different world mean she has to kill him?

    Ok - I know this is the manga thread, but this thing isn't worth an own thread:

    The "OVA" is out. It was announced as a pilot, but I'd never guessed that they mean it's just 8 minutes long...

    http://mazuisubs.com/123

    It looks ok, but with just 8 minutes you can't say if it will be good or bad.

    I was actually excited for this, but then it turned out to be eight minutes long.

    I just don't see the point, really.

    Is it going to be serialized? Or is this just a tease.

    Many people are calling this the pilot episode, but it's hard to get an official word when all the information is in Japan.

    Yeah, it wasn't that brilliant. Though it was to be expected if you consider the last chapters.

    I actually was positively surprised when I thought it ended with him floating in space doing nothing. But then the author had to add a mushy happy end :(. Deux enabling both to together become his successor is contradicting all the manga stood for.
