Genre: Drama, Magic, School Life, Tragedy

Episodes: 13 Episodes

Synopsis: Special abilities occur among a small percentage of boys and girls in puberty. Yuu Otosaka, who has the ability to take transfer his mind to someone else but only for a few seconds, abuses his powers to get what he wants like, answers to a test or saving a damsel in distress. Then appears a girl, Nao Tomori, who has the ability to be invisible but only towards one person. Due to his meeting with her, the fate of special power-users will be exposed.

Opinion: At first I wasn't that into this anime because of how Otosaka abuses his power to get what he wants but I guess that is simulating how if people had special abilities, they would abuse it too. After a few episodes I began to get more into this anime but was ruin by the fact that there is time travel. Time travel is always a delicate matter because of how confusing it is and is usually just a way for there to be a happy ending where no one dies. The ending was a bit unsatisfying because of how rushed it felt like. I felt that they had enough story to extend it to make this anime a 24 episodes series. Overall I enjoyed watching this anime but I wouldn't call it a masterpiece.
