Erased (2016, A-1 Pictures)

僕だけがいない街
Boku Dake ga Inai Machi (BokuMachi)

申し訳ありませんが、この記事は和訳がございません。

Satoru seems like your everyday guy with an average delivery driver job but he has a gift which he's named "Revival". Whenever a fatal accident occurs, he finds himself time leaping just to a few moments before the accident so he could prevent it from happening. It's happened so often he's become used to it.

However, one day he finds his mother murdered at his own apartment and he naturally becomes the prime suspect. Revival triggers but it was a much more powerful leap this time. He found himself back in the body of his 11 year old self, a time when a series of kidnappings occurred. They were all from his class and he believed his mother's death was linked to this incident. As he becomes determined to stop any of the kidnappings from happening and in turn, prevent his mother's death, he becomes attached to one of the first victims.

A lot of dark gloomy music form Yuki Kajiura in this show mostly but, it's a very moving show even though the mystery itself was very predictable. If you're tired of time travel/leap shows or Anime with the same usual high school kids, childhood friends setting then I'm sure this will not disappoint. There are some really emotional moments as you watch Satoru struggle to keep his classmates safe and well.

There's also a live action version that was produced for Netflix but I haven't seen it to comment how good it is.

Erased, BokuMachi
