FINALLY! After years of waiting, we get a new episode of DTB!!(Yes, the second season never existed)
And finally, we learn some stuff about Yin. it seems like some being was lurking around Hell's Gate when Hei left Yin alone and went on his "Dream adventure" with Amber. this being could possibly be Izanami.

I was also surprised to see Amagiri at the end. Dude owns.


Indeed, we all thought he died from Mai's flames.

Anyways, after talking with a few of my acquaintances, we came up with a theory. the theory being, this two below are one in the same!



I mean think about it. One of them could use illusion and other Magic. i know it's very unlikely but still, they seem very alike.


sorry if this has been said before but i'm also thinking of claude (or something) and the fake amber being the same person, i mean, they have the same powers right? manipulation and faking appearances... edit: and the same remunerations possibly, you saw him holding that flower

Nice rumeration there :D

Although I still don't get what beef people have against Season 2. Although I'd like to think that these OVAs will make Gemini of sense to more people and push it's score up. Seems a bit of injustice considering that S2 was definately no worse than S1.

This OVA is amaaazing. I feel that there is ''justice'' because of what they did with S2 XD Hahha.
I think the problem is that S2 wasn't really that bad but it wasn't as good as S1. I'm really happy that they made this OVA, can't wait until ep 3.

Now I really want to know what happend to Hei and Yin after S2 :l

Bulls**t reasons to hate season 2. Only plausible reason to hate season 2 would be that they didn't add flashbacks to the events they are now showing in the OVA, hence you never fully understood the whole Yin/Hei series of events.

As many have said, it was stupid of them to even release season 2 before the OVA's. It just added to the disappointment. That said, this episodes aren't that awesome either. They just have more random fighting.

Well, as I've found, most fans of DTB are in it for Hei and contractor battles and could not care a single bit about the plot beyond him (even when they pretend they do).

Still, I think this OVA could have easily been fleshed out and segued into the events of Gemini to create a 20-some episode season easily. It would have also given them plenty of space to flesh out the story properly AND add gratuitous fights. As things stand right now, even the OVA's look like a rush job at fixing some of the bigger plotholes.

Tl;dr Gemini lacked the awesomeness, and this ova lacks the deeper plot. (Yet I still like these ova's~)
Also, the plot in Gemini was just.. On a whole different level than the original DtB, but why am I saying this here? Might as well go ranting in the thread of the last episode of Gemini instead~

Weren't these episodes suppose to explain why Yin turned out the way she did in S2? So far we have only seen it actually happening but recieved no explaination for it what so ever.

Regardless, it's still DtB with lots of HeixYin service that S2 lacked, so I can't really complain.

OVA's should've been released before showing the events in 2nd season.
"Why is Hei's power gone? What happened with Yin?" ..and more questions popped up when I was watching it. At least we will get the answers now. ^^

You only get a vague clue during the end of season 1. As far as i can see it has to do with the gate (meaning something possessed her, much in the same way the little boy's bodyl in S2 got possessed in the ending).

As for Hei's power poofing all of a sudden, that's actually explained already. When Hei got caught in the anti-contractor trap his powers got killed and he would have died had he not been pushed out of it.

Yin's spectre ghost has taken a life of it's own. Why? Because of Hei? At least that's what she said. I know they had some sort of connection in S1 but the love angle seems a little stretched. I would definitely see it in a more sibling realtionship. Like Yin reminds him of Pai.

His friend Qin was kinda funny and cool I liked him. So were the Yin Yang Bros and their sexy sister. Nice action. Amagiri being alive was a bit of a shock though.

Now we see where Section 3 got the anti-Contractor weapon that was used on Hei. This shapeshifter is in league with Madame Orielle who I STILL don't trust. and Yin's specte is Izanami which explains the black and white versions of her we see at the end of S2.

These episodes are better that all of DTB's episodes to now combined. I just can't believe the level of quality here!

And as for the OST - the battle theme is one of the best I've ever heard.
There's no OP, but the ED is really great!
But the track which sounded at the end of the episode was just killing me while playing. I never expected this kind of track in anime, not to say Darker than black. Well, for sure animes continue to amuse me with the best music pieces I've ever heard...

This OVA series seems a lot pervy-rer than the first season. It also seems someone in the staff has a fascination with putting Yin in different outfits... Not that i'm complaining, but it's pretty apparent.

Also, why doesn't Hei just use his godly powers to destroy all who opposes him? That's what i'd do.

Also, Hei and Yin hug way too much, it's unrealistic. At least cop a feel or something to bring it home xD
