| I knew the Kon transformation was happening, but it's still pretty nice seeing for real. A pretty solid ending overall that I wouldn't have expected at the halfway mark. |

| There better be a second season. I won't be satisfied until Reiji and Shaver die...and stay dead. Hope Harutora makes use of that dead eye. Secret storage compartment in his eye socket? New eye with an ability? A talisman? Beams!? I really hope they do something, rather than just leave him blinded and eye-patched. |

Sotoz said: Muhey said: Awesome stuff there. Didnt expect Hishmarus appearence to be this stunning. Really loved the ending of this anime :). But i dont think there will be a second season anytime soon, since the anime covers the first 9 volumes and there are only 11 right now. Unfortunately baka tsuki isnt far enough with the novel, but my hope is still there. But i dont think the novel will last any longer, somehow i cant imagine what is going to happen now, since the identity from yakou is revealed and he has awoken lol. The question is, who isn't going to want to fuck with him now? We know at-least by minimum he'll have the agency against him, along with the world because you know. Yakou. If there is a second season it'll turn out to be like Code Geass and massively start killing off main characters left and right. Guess there could be a happy ending since he can basically create any magic system now to undo damage... Well yeah but that will be maybe one more arc or 2. But yeah it will probably last some years and im really looking forward to it. Especially the Ootome shikigami part. I dont think it will be similiar to codegeass, since the animes atmosphre is different than in code geass. But we still need to wait some years before an second season will be a topic for the producers (; |

Second season, not enough material and from what I've heard it isn't selling all that well. so the show gets a 6 because the material you wanted to see wasn't even published at the time this started airing? whatever, I'll set aside my bafflement. Enjoyed this quite a bit. so many questions though... hope the LN translation continues; it'd be terrible if the translator loses interest along the way |

redd530 said: So Kon really had a love-crush on Harutora ever since he was Yakou, and was waiting for his eventual reincarnation. She's so sweet~ I like her hair best when she first met Yakoutora. I agree, she looks best with her hair down. I liked her "middle" transformation when she was clearly older and taller with long hair but not fully "awakened" yet. |

| 9/10, loved the show! Kon transformation was just awsome! And that crying Suzuka, said it all! Just hoping for a 2 season . Does anyone know if there is a volume 10 translation ? |

But who knows, maybe they'll come through regardless of the sales. But yeah, it'll be a while before they even consider a second season. Probably like 3 or 4 years. |

| Ahhh its finally ended. I'm going to miss this. Hishamaru is too cute. Doman becoming Jin's Familiar. As if he couldn't get any more badass? I'll probably read the novels just to understand things better when they're finished translating. Only dislikes about this episode are that Reiji and Shaver didn't die and that nobody finds Genji's actions suspicious yet? If there is a second season we'll probably see a manhunt for Harutora since he's now a criminal. I doubt they'll get very far though. |

| I have really enjoyed watching this series. It was everything I wanted it to be with great music and fights as well. The ending was nicely contained whilst leaving parts open. Although any thoughts on a second season are a long time off, I hope that it does happen eventually. |
 |
| damn how they gonna do this to us?! if only this was were we ended off on the first half i really want a season 2 now this ending was a good build up and left me interested in seeing how badass yakoutora can be when that'll be who really knows! :( |

Yuzuriha-Inori said: wait.. I still don't really get the ending. Where is Harutora going at the end? So if Natsume is half conscious, does that mean she can't interact with the real world? Where was that white room, in Natsume's dreams, or somewhere in the real world? I'm kind of lost. Excatly what it says. The scene between her and Harutora happened, but she was only half-awake, so it came off as a dream from her prospective. JoshDmayuga98 said: Someone mind telling me what exactly happened in the end? What did they mean when they said that the Ritual "Kind of" worked? Where was Natsume? Just need a small answer nothing too far into the manga/LN... :S. It's just as Suzu said. She was revived with complications. You would need to read the next volume to find out. Otherwise it's this meant for you speculate what that means. herrickluk said: someone explain why he leaves in the end... To do whatever business he came back to once his memories returned. |

| I demand a second season of 13 chapters! the end was not bad 4/5 and 7 for the series. the ending leaves a lot of expectation. |
| So I really liked this a lot. The ending did bother me a bit but I'll excuse it as I enjoyed this the whole way through. Giving it a 8/10, need more kon goodness. |
 |
herrickluk said: someone explain why he leaves in the end... I'm pretty sure it's because the omnyo agency is after him for using "forbidden magic". |

| Harutora looks awesome with the Raven Coat on. Great ending. As usual the heroine is brought back to life, that's expected. Kon's cute as everrrrrr! Kon's form is so, wow. Kon, I wish you were shown more than just Harutora's familiar. The ending was a little off. I think there's something missing but I can't tell what it is. I'll give it a 8/10 because of the off ending and I didn't know what happened between Harutora and Natsume after they shared a kiss. It really requires a sequel because of the misconceptions. |

| I hope we get another season. I like the new Harutora better already, but I miss loli Kon :( This anime had its moments, was a good watch for the most part. |

| This series for me was a little bit of an up-and-down. It started off at 9, went down to 8, went up to 9, and now it's 10. The first half of the series isn't bad. It's at times humorous, but it was mostly just a series that I didn't drop. But then it got to the second half and it really became all the glory. Everything we kind of expected out of this series came up and exceeded expectations all over the place. Jin and Douman certainly helped. But toward the end every character played a fairly memorable role without it being unnatural, though I must mention that Suzuka and Touji ironically played increasingly smaller roles as the series went on. I also really liked Hishamaru's history. Clearly she became a familiar of Yakou when they were young and all this time she had placed a seal on herself to become Kon, presumably to be able to stay by Harutora's side without arousing suspicions. Perhaps most importantly, this series also become a drawn out silly harem play. Harutora and Natsume took their time, but finally confirmed their feelings for one another at the end and it was pretty sweet too. This series needs a second season just to keep the ball rolling. That's all I want to say. The best thing about all this is I don't think it's peaked yet. Harutora hasn't shown off his ability as Yakou, and in fact a lot of characters haven't gone all in yet. This has been a fun ride and I definitely look forward to announcement of a second season if it ever comes. |

No their after him for using TFR too, and Genji considers him a dangerous element if he not under their control. |
| Ending is meh, well this wasn't so bad, 6/10 |
| Wow what a final?! These last episodes were great! I will raise my vote to 8/10. Hope there'll be a second season. PS. Kon and Haratora badass mode on was pure gold! |
 |
| Ending was good in regards to the wrap up of the romance(KISS :D) but left me confused on stuff. Where is Harutora/Yakou going? A second season would clear stuff up. Also might have helped if I paid more attention in the middle episodes where there was a lot of world building. Still enjoyed the show |
 |
| The ending wasn't that confusing. Harutora looks like a pirate with the coat on and covered eye. This killed some time but was nothing special. |
 |
| There better be a second season explaining what the hell happened. |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| From the flashback, if they are following tradition, that means Hishamaru is Yakou's cousin isn't she ? How did she became a fox like that ? Head of the branch family married a fox spirit ? Or that's still part beyond volume 10 ? |
| Because of the "Chuu~~~~" scene at the end... I felt like I just had to increase my rating by 1. lol |
 |
| Wow, Kon surprised me this episode. Nice ending :) A possible season 2 perhaps? first half was 6/10. Second half was really good, overall 7/10. |

nseika said: From the flashback, if they are following tradition, that means Hishamaru is Yakou's cousin isn't she ? How did she became a fox like that ? Head of the branch family married a fox spirit ? Or that's still part beyond volume 10 ? Correct on the first part. :) Hishamaru has same condition as Touji (being under the possession of a spirit making her half human) except she was born that way in her case. |
| This was a good anime, the ending was especially good. Season 2? |
| ahhh i was satisfied with the kiss at the end. Doman becoming Jin's familiar :O Also Kon's transformation was pretty epic! <3 However, overall the anime was very messy/confusing and had some pacing issues, but it was still a very fun watch. I would give it a 7 but i'll have to stay with a very solid 6. |

| Best episode from Tokyo Ravens. I'd give that ending 10/10 but the rest of 23 episodes id give 8/10 |
 |
| So happy to see Hishamaru animated. The first time I saw it in the LN, I was already a fan XD Kind of sad that we have to wait a couple of years for the next installment (and that's a big IF) since there's very little source material left. But hey if Log Horizon can do it, there must be a way :p The ending was really sweet I was smiling the whole time haha. For the love of Kon, Suzuka and Touji I give this an 8/10. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| Grown up Kon? I can live with that. So what's with the parting? Harutora gonna become final boss now? TENMA NEW MC???? The ending felt kinda lackluster as it they didn't even try to put anything together before ending even though it was kinda expected with the novel still going. I'm glad there was that Natsume scene, expected more tears though. |
| SO been waiting for the moment Kon have a grown up transformation... and like the ending where Harutora became the "bad" guy. Might read the novels in the future to fully understand omitted parts and confusion. |
