Lyrs: The way I think of it, I see it a lot like Back to the Future, except instead of just time travel, they change dimensions.

I concur with what Lyrs said about too much "Teamwork and friendship" crap, but I was satisfied with the very end.
Spoiler :
Adult Rika somehow goes back in time and prevents Takano from becoming a bitch.
I enjoyed the ending to Kai, but if you ask me, I'd say that only the first season is worth recommending. The animation is more satisfying, and there was a lot more psychotic murder which I do love so much. If they ever continue releasing the dub, I'm not buying Kai.

Making Rei (third season) is a mistake. They should just leave it as it is.

Just finished watching the ending to Kai.Well,it was satisfying but truly,Kai left the psychotic stuff of 1st season.And,just like Ishbalan said,that was the major interest of 1st season.
3rd season - I really can't see anything new happening.Apart from the fact that Kai's ending was really weird...like an adult Rika.

I watched that a long while back. Keiichi's hand glew with an awesome power.

It told him to win poker.

I kind of interpreted it as...
adult Rika asking Takano whether she wanted to live or die, and Takano chose death so she died with her parents in the bus crash, and the rest is a happy dream, or heaven or something where she is still together with her parents. Maybe I'm wrong though and Rika made it so her parents simply didn't die or something.
I was like o__O

In all these scenarios, Rika is the default observer. Her actions and what she sees determines the course of the future possible worlds. However, since she is a part of the dimensional fabric, it is impossible for her to go back in time and stop the massacre at its root; the root being the death Takano's parents and her suffering.

However, as Hanyuu exists, there exists other entities outside of the fabric of dimensional space/time. This other entity is Frederica. She exists as herself, but she is also the cumulation of Rika's experiences in each dimensional fold. Rika's knowledge and emotions becomes Frederica's own through each of Rika's dimensional travel. It is Frederica that we see in front of young Takano. It is she who changed the passage of events and lead events to there peaceful ending.

Did you get that info from playing the game/visual novel?
