"Afterimage"

The queerats finally return to the forefront of the show, and they're making one hell of a splash with their brand new constitution.

(Yuki Hana)
"Snowflakes"

If this is the prelude to what we can expect in Shin Sekai Yori's second half, there's probably little worry about any drop in quality. This was a meaty episode that threw some really interesting game-changers our way.

(Saikai)
"Reunion"

I have my complains about the animation, but it certainly doesn't break Shin Sekai Yori's trend of delivering an engrossing episode every successive week.

(Yowai Tamaki)
"Weak Link"

Horrifying brutal and intensely tragic, Shin Sekai Yori makes me wish more shows could handle exposition like they do.

(Fuyu no Enrai)
"Winter's Thunder"

Its not a particularly standout episode of Shin Sekai Yori after the last twos double dose of awesome, but this will go down as the episode that gave me confidence the team knows exactly what theyre doing.

(Yami Yorimo)
"Than Darkness"

Youd have to be pretty cold-hearted not to feel the least bit sympathetic for Shun and Saki.

(Kaze Tachinu)
"The Gale Came"

Easily the best episode since the stunning premiere, 09 marks a brilliant return to the earlier episodes' atmospheric and suspenseful presentation.

(Yocho)
"Omen"

Time jumps! Who doesnt love time jumps and the way they change up the dynamics of a story? But, boy oh boy, I dont think I couldve ever been prepared for what Shin Sekai Yori was going to deliver exactly with this whammy of an episode.

(Natsu Yami)
"Summer Darkness"

The kids are finally reunited as we come to the end of a great first act, but the real problems for the kids are only just beginning.

(Tohiko)
"Getaway"

The episode title might seem to suggest one thing, but fact is this episode goes an entirely opposite direction to give us Shin Sekai Yori at its most action-packed yet.
