till ep7:
THIS SHOW JUST HOOKED me the lore and everything this introduced me that there was this game GNOSIA similar to amongus or werewolf like social deduction games
after completing:
omg the twist and twist that keeps coming the complete Story just hits right in the feel.
the ending thanks for leaving an afterthought
i wonder how it felt for the weekly watcher as there were credits on 12th ep as well as at the 18th ep normal ending. clearly messing with us
Review:
the twists were a constant punch to the gut and finishing it has left me with this hollow achea total book hangover. this was a hauntingly beautiful experience for me until those final glimpses which turned this into a soft landing changing the pain into something that finally feels right and whole.
the pace was perfect. how can there be like 75 of the show as a repeated game of social deduction and no hesitation or a sense of bore?
The OST is the heartbeat of the series capturing every twist and tear. I can definitely realize somethings gonna happen or not.
The music is a visceral trigger even a few notes of the Insert song Blue Sky Blue Star sucks me right back into that world it gives me goosebumps.
the placement for the songs or the Transitions is seamless.

ED ep 18 Blue Sky Blue Starhttps://youtu.be/zADUR0gT1CY by C.V Setsu the emotional impact of this is something else.
The show starts as a game of logicguessing who to trust and judging who the Gnosia is. But the transition from that cold social deduction to genuinely caring for the entire ensemble cast was something I never expected. Each person has a story that sticks with you. By the end you arent just watching the show youre thinking about every single one of them. Even though Yuri and Setsu are the core of it all and my main focus the whole crew becomes a part of that hollow ache when its over.
Everything happens on just a Single SHIP.
Normal Ending
Ive always loved huge intergalactic stories like Evil Lordhttps://anilist.co/anime/183274/ImtheEvilLordofanIntergalacticEmpire/ or GQuuuuuuXhttps://anilist.co/anime/185213/MobileSuitGundamGQuuuuuuX/ but GNOSIA used that space setting to do something much more visceral.
Setsus line:
N yuri.. watashi wa koko ni iru. Soshite kimi mo soko ni ierudarou. Sore dakede jbunna nda. Dakara arigat. Kimi ga soko ni ite kurete
Hey Yuri.. Im right here and youre right there arent you?.. Thats all i need. So.. Thank you.. for being there for me.
This strikes a chord in me that most stories miss.
The bond between Setsu and Yuri is my ideal vision of a relationshipits about a deep affection that doesnt need a label or a gender. The fact that Setsu is nonbinary and Yuri is undefined makes their bond feel so pure. Its genderless platonic and built on presence and being there for each other. It describes exactly the kind of connection Ive always wantedwhere just knowing the other person exists next to you is enough. As someone with ADHD who doesnt often feel these typical connections hearing Setsu say You are my precious just for existing alongside them really hit home.
True Ending
Overall this show was a narrative masterstroke that left a permanent mark on me. Its beyond words A rare gem so Im giving it a resounding 9.5/10.
Utagau na Osoreru na Soshite shiru subatewa shiru kotode Sukuwa reru
Doubt not fear not and know. Knowledge will save all.
