Another good ep, Shizume is pretty badass as she fought on par with Hei but what the hell did she do to him at the end? Suou, seriously with the tank destroying gun? It's going to be awesome watching her wield that massive thing. Hei totally destroyed August too in a take-your-magic-and-shove-it manner.

OP song = awesome.

Nikaaaaa, yusss x3 I was hoping he'd come back. Though I also hope there'll be no stupid Token Romance involving Suou and Nika...
Haha, I wish we could've seen Hei's face when he realised (cough) that it's a girl he's patting down xD

Animation, though...looked a bit off, for example when Hei was running to Yin.
Magician is dead? D: Nooo, I liked him...
And...lol, how about Hei's contractor powers disappearing/transferring to Suou due to the meteor fragment's power? Ahaha.

Kirihara...obsession, much? XD Get a life, girl.

This is somehow remind me of Ga-Rei Zero.

It is kind of interesting episode with a lot of nice action but at the same time it doesn't really tell anything much about the story. After this episode, it really makes me want to see the 4 OVA about the story between the first and second season.

Ew. I don't like August. Though if he's really dead then I'll be a little disappointed with how fast they're killing off characters. And it looks like I might have been right about Mao being in Suou's squirrel :D Too bad it's not as cute and funny as a cat.

Anyway this was an interesting episode. I really want to know what happened to Yin :<
The new OP is okay, I like the ED a bit more.

I somehow get the feeling both Hei and Yin are going to die before this season ends...

ps: Is Hei looking for meteor core to bring Yin back, somehow?

I hope they don't do that. Also after seeing it again, is Hei lying about the professor to that guy from the CIA? Hei said that the professor was already dead but it looked Hei killed him. Why would he lie? Suous poster thing was brilliant! "The worst lowlife on Earth is on the run for taking my sister's chastity and her savings" Talk about something. Russian names: Kozlov, interesting add ons. I suppose they were about to erase Nika's memory those guys. Hazuki must have it though with her payment.
Have real bad feeling for next episode about Tanya and Nika Lobanov. They might die and more character might come in but I like their innocence. This will suck when it happens. The battles of Hei against Hazuki and August 07 were great like season 1. That is a good thing at least.

its the CIA ppl searching for the meteor thing rite...and the star thing falling must mean heis not a contractor anymore...he for sure lost his power.....must prob the meteor core will give back his power later in the show...because they cant just banish the main humans character can they....
I hope more that the meteor core can bring Yin back but Hei's powers gone is still hard for me to swallow. I have no way to know how did it happen other than the mine thing that zapped his power.
Linalee-Stratos said:
most probably tanya is goin to die...now or later...suou might save nika with heis help in the next ep...
wanted to see heis face when suou called him a pervert...but the mask thing just got irritating....wanted to see the reaction real bad...it must have been funny....
I don't want Tanya to die and Nika either but maybe Nika is going to be with Suou but it might they both die like lovers sometimes do. I feel lots of emotions coming in #3.

Well, first of all, the power wasn't actually his to begin with, but anyway, that's of little matter I suppose.

He wouldn't get much of a surprise now, would he? Since he's a contractor and all .. But oh well, guess he would've felt something similar to surprise when realizing that it was Suou and not Shion

Well, he had the powers of a contractor. And his Messier Code was BK-201. Kirihara stated the star was BK-201. He's probably lost his powers or something similar now.

It's all assumptions and theories right now, so we'll just have to wait and see, I guess.

I notice alot of people mentioning Hei's hair.. I think it's pretty fine like that, although I think he should shave instead, it does not suit him to have some hair on his chin xD
Besides, his slightly longer hair makes him look even more ruthless, which in his case adds to his cool-factor x)

Wow, all the old characters seem to have dissapeared, aobviously something has happened with Hei, hope that gets explained soon, as there is a lot of confusion surrounding the anime already. I guess the only significance of the little girl is the meteor fragment, but why does Hei want it??? I liked the episode, it was surreal, the action was brilliant, especially the second fight, I love Bones and their animation, great studio.

Amazing episode! The fights were brilliantly constructed. I just wish Hei wasn't so good at killing people so the fights can be a little longer XD

Couple of questions and expressions
1. Everyone is looking for Shion, right? and they think Suou is Shion, right? Why does eveyone greet "Shion" by saying honey?
2. Sexy lesbian character! yay!
3. Hei also thought Suou was Shion, right? Why did he ask "Shion" to blow him? And when he felt a boob, he immediately jumped away. Is Hei....
4. I think they might be experimenting on Tanya. She could come out later as a transforming contractor with mini guns on her shoulder o_0
5. So it seems that there has been a transfer of power between Hei and Suou. Loli girl who has super powers and knows how to use a gun? WTH bones! horny teenage boys are not your only audience!
6. Misaki! yay!
7. did they say something about using April's brain for something? Like ghost in the shell? We can haz robo april nao?

that is all. Next friday is too far away!

As mentioned by some Hei isn't a real contractor. His powers come by using his sister's contract & he doesn't pay a price because:
1) It isn't HIS contract.
OR
2) Pai has lost her material body (Like Mao) & thus her contract doesn't require a renumeration anymore.

Hei's contractor like attitude is a result of his working as the "Black Reaper". So, his feelins are the same regardless of whether or not he has his contract.

PLEASE TELL ME YIN IS NOT DEAD!!!
I hope she's just be succked into some space created by a meteor core & Hei should be able to get her back using his power on a meteor core. Afterall he DOES have the power to create regions like dead zones if certain requirements are met.

Also the "Star" DISSAPEARED, it did not FALL, meaning Hei's powers are gone for the time being, he DEFINITELY isn't dead. (They show him in the next episode).

Hopefully, if the story ever requires for Suou to choose b/w her brother & Hei, she should side with Hei.

Seems like Hei was telling the truth about the professor already being dead when he arrived. (July says that Hei was the only one in the room - This happened before Suou heard the voices). Also this might mean that Shion has the power to affect people's brains (Cause delusions, communicate telepathically, steal information & even kill without any physical damage).

The Woman in black probably has the ability to alter molecular density of wood (Making it harder/sharper & phasing through trees).

ill be angry if yin is gone for good. it makes me sad. well kinda cool that Hei's star disappeared; it didnt fall from the sky. the fights are awsome too, but man contractors are dying like flies in this season! great fun, im very excited for how this will all unfold.

I really like all the new characters. Suou is so cute <3 & for now August 7 is the best of the new contractors, in my opinion.
I think this season will be really different from the previous one D:' & I agree, I preferred it when it was Hei-centric.

It was basically the translators messing around... -__- (AoShen was their name?)

1. They just kept adding honey, the characters didn't say that.
3. Hei did not ask for that... he asked for the meteor fragment.
7. Ahhhh, I had to listen to it several times because the subs were pretty bad. I believe they use the ME Squeezer to harvest memories (this is my assumption). Basically the guy says to put the bodies in the ME squeezer while they're still fresh (referring to the dead contractor) and then says of course his brain too because it's a great asset - I'm guessing he's referring to the professor here, because while he's not a contractor he could hold valuable information. I'm assuming they're harvesting their memories because when they used the term ME before it was always to do with memory erasing, so maybe the ME squeezer, 'squeezes' memories out of dead people's head. Although this would probably be impossible if the head was damaged.



Oh and while we're on the subbing the magician did _not_ say I'm putting on my robe and wizard hat. They're even using internet memes now...

Liked the episode btw. =) The opening as well, it seems to fit the travelling theme.

I think 16 is correct. 12 episodes that we're going to see and the 4 OVAs that are supposedly only appearing on the DVD/blueray when it comes out. The OVA is supposed to link season 1 + 2 together, probably where you get to see what really happens to Yin. While the two are kind of seperate they're both under the Ryuusei no Gemini part so I guess they added them together to make 16.

well i liked the episode showing the new contractors powers, im happy that mao is still alive i was devastated at the end of last series when i thought he had died, it must be because that his power was to shift his soul to another body and when the cats body died his soul left it and found the nearest animal body.

has anyone else noticed the change from obeisance to something else.
im not fussed about yin tbh however i feel sorry that hei is all alone.
and perhaps yin has been captured by the cia and that is y hei is working for them because i could have sworn that at the end of the last series he didn't intend 2 side with anyone.

i also think the star thing at the end was something 2 do with pai because she is somehow linked 2 the meteor fragments hei's powers origonally hers have some sort of connection and is it me or is that meteor fragment more amber coloured then the previous 1

Great episode. At first, I was a little hesitant on this completely new angle and story they seemed to introduce, but the plot is definitely thickening nicely. Seems like Yin died (*tear*) but can't wait to see what happens to Hei with this attack and if he and Suou end up getting along and work towards a common goal.

Another great episode. Lots of action and stuff going on, with many cool characters being introduced.
I like the OP song but the visuals were quite boring, needed a lot more action in my opinion, but it was still nice.
Love the ED though, abingdon boys school never disappoint and the visuals were superb.
I like Hei's bum look and his long hair. He looks badass.
And the magician contractor was awesome.

With the fact that when stars fall, contractors die, it is an easy assumption to see that Hei lost his powers since the star just disappeared. I find it weird that that sword girl was able to plant those underground electric things right where Hei would be. Hei can probably defeat his opponents without powers, but losing his powers probably relates to him losing Yin, or something else.

the new opening was ok, but not s good as the first seasons's second opening.

Another great episode for the second season. Opening is great stuff. They really left us with a lot of questions by the end... man I'm craving more episodes. It's too bad Hei is all depressed, it's gotta be over Yin who's mysteriously gone. There's some really nice abilities as well as odd renumerations this time around, how exiting! If the barrier Hei was caught in causes him to lose his ability or something, I'm going to freak out.

I want to see Suou shoot some stuff. Maybe like all those bad guys that keep mistaking her for her brother. Hei doesn't even realize it's Suou and not Shion until he frisks her and she freaks out, lol. People in this anime must be awful at determining genders.

I think he has a remuneration. Eating a huge meal.

Also after seeing the episode a second time i realized that the guy who turned in to a rock man knew she was a girl and also the last scene seems like Hei shared some memories with Suou. I could be wrong but it gave me that impression.
