Angel Beats 1-13 Complete

One of my All Time Top 10 anime, glad you liked it. When I watched it years ago, I think the plothole is that the Afterlife has no sense of time and therefore eternal only for souls to stumble there. Kanade mentioned that she lingered here because of her deep-rooted desire to thank the one that gave her more life from the heart she was given. It was pretty much destiny for her to meet Otonashi as he appeared later. Her passing on was closure for her lingered emotions and Otonashi's was his desire to help those in need (from his past life).

I think a way to explain the plot hole is that time doesnt pass in the afterlife the way it does in the real world, the afterlife is eternal, whoever is there doesnt age because they are already dead meaning their time has stopped so time could be stagnant in the afterlife, therefore just because otonashi died first doesnt necessarily mean that he'd go first into the afterlife because the concept of time there is different or is just not a factor at all. We dont know how much time had passed since otonashi arrived in the afterlife up until the end but if we assumed it had been a couple of months and then he passed on, it doesnt mean he reincarnated a couple months after he died, could have been years later because of the difference in the flow of time, so regardless of the order they died in the real world, the order in which they appeared in the afterlife could be random because it's not directly related to time in the real world due to time not passing at all in the afterlife or it not existing there in the first place...but hey that's just a theory

A sad little detail about Yui's character, she was introduced as being incredibly clumsy to a comical level, but the truth is more that she still just wasn't used to actually being able to walk again. That's part of why her backstory is so sad. She had more energy than anyone else, yet couldn't move her own body. Great reactions to the whole series though and I'm glad you guys seemed to enjoy it.
