First of all i recomend to watch episode 9 around 17:30 in the episode and try to understad what it really means. with the situation that Kanade and Otonashi new eachother and planned things out, but Otonashi doesnt remember and Kanade is just following the plan.

let me add this guys. The NPC that Yuri talked to doesnt really know anything so we cant take what he says as facts. Otonashi Is the Programer here is why: Otonashi wanted to stay in the Underworld because he wanted to help people to pass on, before Yuri and everyone else. Since he is a human he got tired of waiting and turned it self into a NPC and deleted his memories, why would he do that? well, so he doesnt wait forever and get tired of living. So he programed that whenever people try to exist in the world forever he would turn human and help them pass on, and thats what he did as soon as he got his memories back. the anime didnt show that bcz that would take the mistery out of it. Now you ask: why is Otonashi the programer, why him? well God game him the ability to do that until he is satisfied on helping others. Kanade and Otonashi have been in the world for a couple of generations. Kanade new it all along thats why she was so obedient with Otonashi. They had this plan that Otonashi would join the revels and become friends and show them the way to pass on and that is not so bad, with angel representing as an asset of "God" as a distraction and motivation. He also let Angel Player to Kanade to defend herself.

remember that in one part Otonashi suggested that he would stay by Kanade's side for ever when they were in the infirmary, and she replied to him "Tha never happened before". meaning that by doing that it would break the cycle

So everything was planned out.

the reason this was their last generation is because Kanade found out that he was the heart donor and she was able to pass on. Otonashi was never lonely because he had Kanade (who now passed on) and the computers running Angel Player were all destroyed by Yuri. and also he wanted to pass on bcz he been i love with Kanade and we wanted to be with her again.

once you re watch a couple of times, you can start seen the clues like the reaction and the way Angel reacts and responds

this is just my theory... but im confident this is how it is. I watched the Anime 9 times now bcz i like showing it to family and friends and they tell me their own theories (i usually watch it with them). and i been building on it lil by lil. and i think this is want makes sence the most  since it doesnt break or contradict any of the facts.

Just rewatch with any of the theories in Mind. and see what works
