Synopsis
ERASED (僕だけがいない街, 2016), Season 1 — a 12-episode anime mystery you can watch online on iFILM. Satoru Fujinuma has a reflex he can't control: seconds before something bad happens, time snaps back and gives him a second try.
When his mother is murdered at his apartment, the ability overshoots — he lands in 1988, age ten, weeks before his classmate Kayo Hinazuki disappeared. The serial kidnapper is still out there, and Satoru has to earn Kayo's trust, identify the person hiding behind a familiar face, and move fast enough to change what already happened once. Every failed attempt burns time; every near-miss tightens the loop. The show parcels out its clues carefully across all twelve episodes and rarely lets you breathe.
Based on Kei Sanbe's manga, the series aired on Fuji TV in late 2016 and drew attention for treating its mystery as something personal, not procedural — the whodunit and the coming-of-age story run on the same track. Stream ERASED Season 1 online on iFILM, all episodes in good quality.
