Holy fucking Klaus was GAR. Loved his quote about how others are do not change what you yourself believe in / who you are.

Welp, I'm sold. That was awesome. This show knows how to play onto its bizarre wackiness without turning into complete nonsense, all the while becoming nothing but. It took some adjusting but once I opened my mind to the absurdity and just accepted everything as it came, it really did become infinitely more fun.

Kekkai Sensen has also established that it has no intention of spoon feeding or hand holding the audience. It's got subtlety, absurdity, and wit all jam packed into one big clusterfuck of fun.

It's crazy how he lasted 99 freakin' hours lol. I wish I knew more about the "chess game". Seems pretty interesting.

But still... 99 freakin' hours. I don't think I've even played a hour long chess game before.

And honestly, is it safe to say that the soundtracks in this anime is top class? Like arguably top 10 ever?

That could have actually been intense but there's no friggin' context for the game at all. They could be mashing buttons for all anyone could care. I mean, you couldn't even tell if he was winning or losing because of the lack of dialogue.

Super cool animation.

That game looked way hard, I couldn't play any game for 99 hours. I'd be bored by about 10 lol.

Cool song near end.

-this show reeks of Gintama lol

Arlelelle? where do they get these names man.

More complex than chess? the way they play, they just drag random pieces across the table lol. At fast pace at that.

Anyway this show is getting kinda confusing, Maybe because it's been quite a while since I watched the first two episodes but.. well I'm kinda used to it. This happens a lot to one-cour shows like this.

This game seems to be the type of game where you need 3 hrs to explain all the rules to everyone and they'll still make plenty of mistakes and ask you to tell them the rules again.

I found it funny how Klaus actually started to bleed. It was really nice of him to spend 99 hrs to save a man who wanted to have him killed. There seems to be some nice vibes betweeen K.K. and Klaus too (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧ .

Just what............?!?!?!?!?!

Three episodes in and I still find myself always thinking "What in the world is happening?!" and though that may sound like a complaint, it actually isn't. True, a lot of things still confuse me with this anime but I can't say I don't like it. If anything, I enjoy it overall... in a weird way that even I can't really explain. lol I suppose there's just something (*shrugs*) about this show that's keeping me interested.

Anyway, on to the next episode!

I don't think this was a great episode, and it lacked the momentum of the previous episodes, but it was still entertaining. The eldritch location was kind of neat.

What we learned: Klaus has DETERMINATION, K.K. was introduced and uh... well, that's about it. K.K. probably shoots blood bullets out of finger, judging by her "boss subtitle".

So the name of the ghost is Mary. Must be pretty boring for her not to have any person besides her brother where she could talk to. Leonardo seems pretty happy :D

Haha that scene with Zapp at the beginning where he sat on Leo's face.

This game prosfair looks crazy and Klaus played it for 99 hours straight against someone who plays it since 1200 years? wtf O.o

At least he was able to rescue Ulchenko and got the informations he needed.

These OST's are so awesome, can't get enough of it. <3

Looking back on the series, one can also appreciate the greater clarity that was not so evident in the narration before. The hymn to joy in the background of the match between Klaus and Don Arlelelle Eruca Fulgrouche, makes Klaus's words more epic. KK enters so quickly on the scene, that there is almost no time to wonder who he is and what he is doing, even if certain aspects of the relationship between her and Klaus are evident. But when was Chain presented? I do not remember it.

This (At the Gates song) is totally different then the song used in the anime...It's got background drums and generally waaaay too much noise that cover it's awesomeness. Where can I find the song used in the anime ? Or at least what's the producer/composer ? Any hints ?
Btw, the song is from episode 3, it starts at about 07:12 during the episode.

I'm honestly so confused as to why people are confused. yes, I know that wording is ironic. But ... seriously? It's a little fast paced, but this show isn't confusing at all. You don't need to pause the screen 50 times like people keep saying. Hell you don't even need to read the descriptions of the characters that are given, you can just pick up context clues with the dialogue.

.... honestly guys this isn't confusing at all

beethoven's 9th symphony 4th movement, in other words, one of the best compositions ever composed by a human. It sounds different because it is an orchestra.

Sorry mate but, "Kekkai Sensen OST - At the Gates" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccJXevHX-js) has nothing to do with Beethoven's song :). I was just looking for the original, "clean" audio version used in the anime without the background drums.

allright. well it is the 9th symphony that plays at the moment the mentioned but I didn't understand. I didn't hear the music that was playing at the same time I think or I didn't notice! (probably because of my love for beethoven(did I mention I love beethoven?)) anyway interesting story.

The beauty of this episode lies in getting to know the head of the Libra better and deepening the aspects of the context in which the events of this story are told; the character of K.K. I like it a lot, because she's really funny. Drawings and animations, excellent. Ditto the backgrounds. The mysterious girl still remains a mystery.

This series really gives me Hellboy vibes. So Prosfair is chess but advanced, man Klaus is pretty amazing to not only have some crazy physical strength but also the mental strength to continue the chess game without losing for 99 hours.

In exchange for information you can't get anywhere else, you play a chess game on steroids with your life on the line, huh. Sounds more like a deal with the devil more than anything else.

I'm looking forward to the drug raid and to seeing how they'll fare against Angel Scale users if they'll ever decide to show that.
