Considering she's been stuck inside that tower, either it was incest, or it was the so called "immaculate conception" I guess... but shush...

Shion was not locked up all time in that house, she lived with her father and once died her father, she lived with human, she found a man who loved, and had Mary, most likely that once her husband died, return to her home with her daughter to protect her. Actually, Tsukihiko would have died when Shion was still a toddler. If Shion had a child as toddler, Mary and her would look the same age, but they don't. I remember reading somewhere that Shion ages every 100 years, and Mary ages every 10 years. |

I don't think there was any connection between Seto's relative and Shion. I believe it was just to show that members of their family has met before. |

pakoko said: So could the past version of Seto or that Seto look-alike that came to hunt the monster be the father? In which case Seto and Marry would be cousins/siblings? Wait, what? That was Seto visiting Mary about ten years ago. Seto would have aged about ten years present, and Mary would have aged about one. EDIT: Oh, okay, never mind. I misunderstood. Actually, it couldn't be. Shion was still a toddler, and would still be a toddler when Seto's ancestor died. |

| This (so far) has to be the best episode that I've seen. I learnt stuff about Azumi that I didn't know before. It was overall a great episode. Here's hoping that Mekakucity Actors, will end with a bang! |
kurosaki344 said: A nicely done episode, cover was made well too. I guess only thing that gave me some doubts was the black/white screen tone at the start. By the looks of it we might get Outer Science next week, since we heard Ayano's father do some rather odd explanations to "someone" in the preview. I feel like shit is about to get real, guess we'll wait and see. 5/5 Already been confirmed numerous times Any episode with Marry is a good episode. Pretty much all I have to say about this episode.

| Great episode about Mary. Pieces are coming together |
| nicely done though still confused with some stuff gotta rewatch to make it clear 4/5 |
 |
| Btw dat cover was brilliant. So good. |
| Great episode, Mary's so cute! I feel bad for Azami and her family, so much awful stuff happened to them ;_; people should just get to know them better. |
| wow gay |
| Mekakucity Actors is a very, very, very strange show. Its confusing in many regards, and has so many different plot threads going on. But, I'm loving it! The first 3 episodes I loved, and then it slowed, and my interest began to wane, but everyone is connected in interesting ways, and all of the many plot threads are incredibly interesting! They reveal a bit each time, and make you want more all at the same time. I wish each episode was an hour long, or more because I want to know everything about this world. However, I don't see anyway for them to wrap up the series in 2 episodes. Especially when the source material is still running. I hope we get a second season though because the intrigue is hard to handle! As for the actual episode, this was what I was waiting for. Marry's backstory, I've been wanting to know what's up with her, and with the exception of a few spoilers, I didn't really know. So I take it the snake is the one that is causing all the problems? Poor Kana Hanazawa and her snake issues... I really like Seto and Marry together, so it was nice seeing their meeting, particularly when the music took over as he showed her how to use the iPod. Wonder what we will get in the next episode? |
| It was one sad story after another. Azami showing off her powers was great, then Shion getting in on the action a decade later was tragic. I was excited when Mary made her appearance. Shion sacrificing herself to save Mary, I was not ready for that. Really enjoyed the mystery of this show so far, and it's sad that there are only two episodes left, as I'm craving for more character progression. Cannot wait to start on the light novels once this has finished airing. |
 |
| So we finally got some flashbacks of the monster through Marry her granddaughter. Great episode!!! |
 |
| I can say about this episode that I liked the development, but the doubts remain but only has two more episodes, do not know if all questions will be answered but I hope the anime explain more things sometimes I feel that the plot is left, but it must be because I did not know about the songs and LN I'm only concerned if the final will be good .. |
  |
| so how was mary born? |
| Hate Keeps me warm |
| So every single episode taking place in the present happened on the same day, August 15 of some certain year. However, at the end of this episode, the news announcer said it was midnight, making it August 16. I'm not sure if it was a mistranslation from the subs I watched, but this might be important. |
|
| I'm pretty impress about this episode, focusing on Marry's backstory, and how she grew up and survive through her past. Also the soundtrack and the story is on point on several places. Great episode Shaft :D. |
| Welp, time to know more about Azami and Marry. I think the Snake's voice was kinda like Mamoru Miyano? Idk, just a thought. Poor Shion ;-; |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |
| This was a good episode, but i was not expecting it to be that tragic. And does anyone know the song that was playing during the indecent with Tsukihiko? |
| Azami has a more powerful voice than I imagined. Loved her powers. Wait... did I just see Seto? Wait, that's it for Azami? That's why she left? I expected something more concrete... I honestly don't like Shaft way of doing things, it seems more like a play. Like the characters are just showing off their hair and all... Well, I am not the one to complain... I still think that this episode was the best so far. But it was super-rushed... God, why only 12 episodes? It is a massacre.. Did I just hear Kuroha? Oh, male vocals for Imagination Forest, eh? I think female ones would have worked better but I still loved it a lot. Tantan time! I felt for Mary 100x more in the song. Really. It is one of my fav. KagePro songs... Man, I want a remake. One which series deserves. Not this. Such a shame... They are gonna do Otsukimi Recital? Whoa. I really appreciate that cuz it's my faav. KagePro song and all but... can they really afford it? |

Milenart said: ShintaroX said: Alright episode. Imagination Forest being what got me into Kagepro I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed at this episode. It was good, but I just don't feel the same atmosphere that the song/video achieved if that makes sense? Anyway, it was still a good ep and the insert song was great as usual. I didn't get why they showed Seto with one headphone plugged in before Mary having both though.. Moon-viewing Recital next! Oh, about the part where Seto was with one earphone, i think he was explaining her how it worked o.o Like "You put it on your ear like that and BAM!", "hã????", *puts earphones on Mary's ears* Yeah I totally see it now, think I just had the PV in my head, so was a little confused (Seto gave the headphones straight to her in that). Well spotted though! |
| The albinos are strong in this anime. XD So many of them...! Oof... Not sure if I like the animation this episode... Felt quite lazy at points... And those freakin' ugly backgrounds... Wait, Past!Seto...? Lolwhut, what was he doing there?! XD Heh, that snake sounds an awful lot like a certain Mamoru Miyano... Nudge nudge, wink wink, ifyougetmydrift. ;) Seriously though, that snake is an asshole. XD Wait, where the heck did Shintaro go? Did he just spaz out and leave? Uh-oh, was kinda worried when Marry found Konoha... The pose he was sitting in looked awfully familiar... Yay Konoha is back!!!!! I missed the lil' f**ker... Adorably derpy as ever. I'll be your friend, Konoha... Hmmm... Preview doesn't sound very Otsukimi Recital-like... And that was Kenjiro talking, right? He also sounded like a certain Snake-san... *proceeds to do more nudging, followed by winking and ifyougetmydrift-ing* |

InTheOtherWorld said: Oof... Not sure if I like the animation this episode... Felt quite lazy at points... And those freakin' ugly backgrounds... Ugly backgrounds?? I thought the backgrounds looked amazing. They had a great pastel feel about them. Look at the different pressures of lighter shades applied throughout the background and foreground sure I have a softspot for pastel... but a lot of other people have said they thought this art style was pretty and the backgrounds during these parts were some of the best for this show |

It's just so unnatural and cold, and more than anything, empty... It just feels really flat and unrealistic to me, and not in the good way. And during non-insert song animation, the colouring style they use is just so bland and simple. And the lines are all so straight and perfect, it doesn't have any unusual quirks or touches, it feels all computer-generated (I know it is, but other studios use the same techniques and still make it look good). I mean, look at it...!  I like the backgrounds having a more realistic feel to them, rather than this abstract emptiness that most of the backgrounds in Shaft animes have. |

| nice ep. snakes everywhere |
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy." |
| Imagination Incest.... yay..... |
 |
| It's sad how Azami had to go for the sake of Shion and Tsukihiko. But hey, she was awesome using all the eye abilities. Poor Shion. She just couldn't take the toll of using her eye ability. It's good that Azami gave Mary her life back. So that's how Seto and Mary met. Nice to see that they're both alike in some ways. Pretty good episode. Showed a lot. |
| Best shot episode, many revelations (even now waiting them) and a dramatic charge to Key, Marry level gradually becomes the center of the plot, and once again the song the MV was too much, can not wait for the cd to download , _; |

Milenart said: For the people talking about incest, PLEASE STOP! Amen to that. It's unnerving. Before posting this kind of thing, think of doing such acts to your own family. XD Would you like to do that? No? Well, don't suggest it then. I think Marry's father was probably foreign, some kind of Westerner. I mean, she has blonde hair and an English name in a Japanese country... |
|
Milenart said: My guess is that after Tsukihiko died from age, Shion lived homeand had her little adventure outside, feel in love with a human, got pregant, lived with him until he died(there is a man besides Shion in the original PV when she is explainig Mary that they are Medusae), and then lived alone with Mary. Sorry for my bad english. And it's just my opinion, I dont think there was incest. Well, considering that: * The moment Azami went outside they were ready to kill her. * Even after all those years, the moment Marry went outside they were also calling her a monster while ready to kill her and Shion just because of the color of her hair. * Both Shion and Marry share the same color of hair. * Shion was made to never use her powers by Azami. So it doesn't look like Shion could stand even a peaceful day outside of the tower, let alone having a happy adventure with another man... Edit: That's why I said this before: DarkMoonWolf said: Considering she's been stuck inside that tower, either it was incest, or it was the so called "immaculate conception" I guess... So let's just say that Marry was born of "immaculate conception" and be done with it... Hell, you can even say that her snake went into the hole for all I care, but no one can deny that Shion was not able to leave the tower without being persecuted to death as a monster while not being able to use any of the Medusa powers she had to protect herself. Basically if she went outside, she would die!! I'm more interested is to know how did they get food and other supplies... even during Azumi time... C'mon were they growing them inside of the tower?? Making them magically appear?? We already know that when she went to the village people would try to kill her so... I guess she didn't went there many times. Even Tsukihiko went there once and was "secured for his own safety". There was no way Shion and Tsukihiko were able to go to the village after that since neither of them could use any powers (Azami told Shion to never use her powers). |

| I'm going to assume the Seto we saw in the beginning was an ancestor. It was most likely fanservice, considering Azami used the same ability that is later acquired by Seto. Thank god we finally got to hear evil Mamoru Miyano! I was beginning to think it would never happen. Souzou Forest wasn't exactly my favorite song in the series, but I think this is my favorite episode so far. 10/10 EDIT: Also, did anyone else think of Kano when the rabbit appeared? |
DarkhurJun 15, 2014 9:22 AM
| Great episode, everything was right this time. The moment when Marry and Seto was so touching, one of the best moments of the season. Plot also thickens. That's good for a change. |
  |
| Yay, Marry background! |
DarkMoonWolf said: I'm more interested is to know how did they get food and other supplies... even during Azumi time... In the fourth novel it is said that Marry didn't eat anything at all whilst she lived at the house, only drinking water. I can assume that the same is for Shion and Azami. Because they are not human they do not age the same, nor do they need to eat. ^^ As for Tsuhikiho, even if he were in a family of monsters I'm sure he would have been able to be allowed back into the village from time to time just to be able to get food. Not all of the village must have had a death wish for the Gorgons, and Tsuhikiho must've had family there that would supply him with food, I suppose. |

sheidesu said: WHUUUT. The snake's voice was Miyano Mamoru right? I'm sure. But Haruka's also Mamo-chan... And, Marry's eye color is the same as Haruka's... Hmmmmmmmmmmm... That part also got me confuse since he is voicing the snake... strange.. but anyway, glad to hear the evil voice of Miyano Mamoru again. Last that I heard of his villain voice is from Gatchaman Crowds in which he really voiced perfectly. |
