Liang Qi's batshit antics are usually amusing and funny to watch since it shows how crazy and fucked up she can be but I liked how it portrayed how sad and obsessed she really is this episode. I also felt just as sorry, if not more, for Cummings as he took the physical abuse from her but didn't give up until it was too late and he put her out of her misery. While I hope he escaped the facility before its final moments, I don't see any real future for his character now that Liang Qi is dead other than doing this-and-that for Alphard.

And Hakko....I suppose it was a fitting end for her? Imo, she ended up doing more harm than good so at least she can be at peace with Santana now.

Looking forward to seeing what Alphard plans on doing now as well as how Canaan interacts with Natsume in the future. Should be interesting considering Canaan and Natsume's little chat last ep and Natsume bringing out the Black Hawks on the facility this episode.

Still happy 'cause the Creators are not afraid to kill kewl characters... My my my I feel everyone deserved the death they received... Not that I'm happy to see Hakko death... but in the end she got what she wanted and deserved.... But man we saw lots of disturbing things this episode... Like Cummings (RIP) and Liang Qi S&M, Hakko's necrophilia (WTH!!!) and Liang Qi over the board craziness...

I still wanna know what's up with that Natsume woman.... She's... the mystery of the whole show... It's clear she's the cause of all this mess... I just want to know how she's going to end up... Canaan... back to basics... Good for me... Oh and Alphard-sama...Go get into the final battle versus Canaan... That's the only thing I'm waiting... And obviously I'm waiting for the TAXI DRIVER!!! XD

Oh poor Liang Qi.. such a painful way to die... And be ignored by the one you love... Poor girl... I just hope she rots quickly in hell (Let's face it... It's the only place she can be now XD) and lives a peacefully after that

Farewell, dearest Liang Qi! You have enriched us and shown yourself to be the wickedest wight. I will mourn you.

It was a fitting death. From the start, Liang was the only one who was going to bring about the end of Liang. Honestly, all three main character deaths thus far have been handled with a great deal of poetry. There are two episodes left. I hope the show plays this tragic edge we've been seeing lately to the hilt. Will this be a short and sweet anime with an ending like classical Greek tragedies? I've been silently begging for that forever!

What was most disturbing about Hakko's final act, wasn't really the act itself. Considering the show I'm not surprised something like that occurred. But, I didn't really think Hakko could fall that far. She seemed pretty stable throughout the show even after all the horrible things she went though in her backstory. Ah well, she was still hot even while dying...

OMG I hate theses emo breakdowns but Liang Qui dont deserved such a shitty dead ; (

If Alphard was the main heroine of this show it would have been much more interesting.

the ending part was nice

This episode was disturbing in so many ways,
Lian Qi's death had to be the most disturbing one of them all, I mean seriously the pills slowly making her suffer, Alphard slicing her ass up, and then Cummings delivering the final blow? Talk about a bad day for someone O_O

Poor Hakko, I could understand why she wanted to go with the love of her life...but come one screwing the crap out of him while the dude is already dead? Just wow!

I personally can't wait for the last two episodes. This has been one of the best anime series this summer in my opinion :D

This entire show is hollow.. characters included.
What a f*cking disappointing show.. Loads of fucked up things happen but they have no impact.

Mainly becuz characters are so flat/hollow..

This is not just My opinion btw.. it's a fact.. Those who disagree, are out of touch of 'reality'.

Things got pretty disturbing in this episode, and the direction was one of the less remarkable in the whole series. Strange developments too. Good thing that the animation is still top notch.

It is assumed that she has natural synesthesia and her abilities were probably enhanced by the virus....

Qi Liang in full crazy mode. She completely lost her mind and along with that her life also. I could never understand people that get so obsessed with others.
No one explained to us what that other Canaan was. Was it her sister a clone or something else.

By the way, that guy was walking around quite well after he took a few pullets in the legs.

Liang Qi, R.I.P.
You were such an evil, badass, trolling, sadistic-masochist bitch, but I dislike and like you that way. (orz xD)
Way to go, Cummings...that part just made me cry. v_v (I easily get touched by the smallest of things -sigh- oh well)
Man, I'm gonna miss him. D:

Nice save by Alphard~♥
It wouldn't be good if Yunyun & Maria died. I like those two, especially Yunyun. ♥

So hopefully, next episode, we see moar Alphard x Siam x Canaan? :'3
Can't wait! ^0^
Moar Canaan x Alphard fight scenes, plz? x'3

It was true that Hakko sexing up deadSantana was disturbing indeed...but I can somehow understand how she felt...
Stupidly Accidentally killing the person you love, anyone would prolly go crazy over that...so her decision to stay with him is understandable. R.I.P. to those two as well.

(Anyways...taxi driver, where art thou? xD)

Finally, that crazy bitch Liang Qi is fucking dead. Dear GOD she was so fucked up it wasn't even funny. There are insane characters, and then there's Liang Qi. She has a category all for herself. She couldn't get better from ANY kind of help. I don't even know how Cummings could love someone that deranged.

Sorta sad Hakko died. She was sort of my favorite female character. I had a feeling she was gonna drag Santana somewhere and fuck his dead body xD Just seems that way with how he died and all.

ohh I thought someone mentioned that she had the virus, but I probably misunderstood, the subs go away so fast sometimes lol
but thanks for the info now i know :)

Yeah I cant wait for the next episode to come out, I deff want more about Canaan, Alphard and Sian, about what exactly happened, why did Alphard kill Sian and a fight between Alphard and Canaan would be awesome! but I dont want any of them to die though, they are both awesome. =D

I'm pretty sure she has the virus. Alphard was talking about how Cannan's powers are duplicated by taking someone with synesthesia, and exposing them to the virus. Since synesthesia is rare, they were finding a combination of drugs to mimic that. I think they all but said that she had the virus, and since she's from that village, I think it's safe to assume that.

Besides that, I thought it was a bad episode, too much Liang Qi, Hakko sexing up a corpse was just too much in a bad direction (seemingly just to get rid of her), and nothing really important happened, which is bad considering we're at the tail-end.

Hakko should have taken Santana's body and continued their "lovers talk" elsewhere.
with this in mind, I also wondered if Cummings had this similar kind of "talk" with Liang when Aphard left them XD

As for the episode, it was pretty much the best episode so far. Liang qi was twisted, I totally lol'd when she started to go "rambo mode" and began gathering weapons/ammo's XD

RIP Liang and Cummings, you guys will be missed (cries manly tears)

*sigh* would have wanted to see more of that sword swinging action though...
