| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- i wonder how many times Keiichi will die. XD |
| Hahaha! Nice question. I think you must first count the chapters in the series, then that will be the number that Keiichi will die. OMG with the first scene in this episode. It's just soo.. WhooO!! |
     |
| I assume the demon soul is now in Rena, rather than in Shion in the last arc :P |
 Damnit! Don't die without my permission! |
| They always start out the chapters so well o___o.... the first scene... wow >.< And I <3 kowaii Rena... I wonder who's gonna be the scary one this time =P |
     Sig WILL change soon~ |
| They must take turns to be the scary ones-first was Rena,then Mion,now again Rena...no matter that we know that Keiichi is a goner, this anime is still a cliff-hanger! ^^ Is it possible that the body the landlord found in the beginning was Satoshi's (Satoko's brother) ? I saw something blond... o.o |

| i wonder if all of the things are going to be linked at some point, since i dont see the point of the different stories right now and its hard to remember the things that are similar |
LOve the baseball part hahaha running with a golf club :' )funny creepy funny creepy make up your mind xD this anime is like a treasure hunt rofl always trying to find a puzzle for the masterpiece xP next ep !!! Grtz lsumi o(^^)o |
| Born to live Born to die Born to be, crucified Give our souls and take our pride Bleeding for the harder styles Rising up, from the seed Born to change, history From the streets we unleash hell Feel the power, decibel!! d(^.^)b |
| Hey, the bat makes an appearance again.:D |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| The point of the different storylines is that the show is based on a game where the plot can take one of many deviations, depending on your choices, and random chance. I guess the show makers just decided to pick the best combinations of series of events. |
 Higurashi: Retroactively asserting why scary and cute sound so similar in Japanese. |
| Although, the many re-tellings of the same story somehow still manage to remain interesting, I gotta say that the beginning of every arc now just seems so dull. You have all of this build up in the last arc and then its executed and just when you want more, it starts over. I can't wait for that explaination already! |
| We have to count the times someone gets in a mad psychoses :s Just look at their eyes ^_^ |

I guess we can rule out Shion as the mastermind behind that one... Rena! :D By the way, I just noticed the shoulder holster Shion wears... why does she carry a gun around? A hobby? xD |
| These Part 1 episodes always start out so wholesome and mundane, and then information is revealed and then we see psycho someone. Glad to see Rena the way she was, because she definitely is the creepiest when she gets that way. |

A hobby? xD I wanna ask about the gun oso... haha... it is even legal to own a gun and walking around with it. Im guessing it might have something to do with the plot.... The corpse at the beginning have nails in the hands which is exactly the same way Mion torture her victims. hmmm... is there a link? |

The corpse at the beginning have nails in the hands which is exactly the same way Mion torture her victims. hmmm... is there a link? It's never really mentioned as anything unusual. Her character page says its something like an airsoft gun. A toy or model really. The nails in the joints of the hands is a torcher(sp?) method. I haven't seen farther in the series but that's just a way to torcher someone. |

| Deiciding his life style by rolling the dice. |
| It's gettin' kind of boring though - like everybody dies and then next morning they are up walking again going to school. I mean how many times are they going to repeat this? macabre. I meant yeah I am hooked on it now but still think it's gross. |

| It was so cute as Rika said "patch patch patch" at minute 08:xx XD |

| Holy f*ck, I knew something was coming but the first scene still scared the sh*t out of me. xD |
| They found a dead body in the first part of the episode, so i assume that it's satoko's brother. Yeah, the coach is a pedophile. |
 |
| The only shocking thing is the coach/doctor's feelings for Satoko. First the coach wants to make the little girl his bride, then he acts like Mr. Nice Guy and says he wouldn't mind making Satoko his daughter. If I were Keiichi, I'd keep the number to child protective services on my fridge as a precaution. But it doesn't really matter, since I doubt Keiichi will even live long enough to dial a single digit :P |

| I was hoping that this arc would focus on the other two girls as the evil ones, but judging from Rena's reactions, I guess that's not the case :< |
| 1. Rena 2. Shion 3. Blond Little Girl... And there is still the bluehaired girl... I think every arc do focus on one girl's story... Yeah, the anime is game based, so they have to show all story lines... But the end will be awesome, I think... Btw, I think that dead men at the start is the main character after Rena killed him... |
fancyfox said: The only shocking thing is the coach/doctor's feelings for Satoko. First the coach wants to make the little girl his bride, then he acts like Mr. Nice Guy and says he wouldn't mind making Satoko his daughter. My exact thought, I mean how old is she 6-7? Though seeing this is an anime she could be 18 for all we know xD Wondering if that coach guy will have any significant impact on the plot or if he was just a filler. |

Sure, the episodes are enjoyable and everything, but if this shit never make at least some sense I will be very disappointed. |
| ABRA CADAVAR!!!!!!!! |
| Nice starting scene, ew. Lol. Pycho rena is back, ooo yey! XD |

Strange how the info from the previous arcs carries over into this one as well. Despite the previous failures, the show seems to keep building on the knowledge. |
 |
| Shion: Oh my god,they killed Keiichi! Rika:You bastards! :D i think's Rika&Satoko's turn this time to painfully kill keiichi xD |
Sayonara,papa! "Just how a mirror reflects you,people will also reflect your heart." ~Athena Glory,Aria "Whatever happens,happens" ~Spike Spiegel's thoughts on dying(Cowboy Bebop) |
| I wonder what the coach is all about. IN the first arc he was kinda part of the bad guys, now he is a wannabe pedophile.. So far the only connection between the arcs is the past which is assumingyl the same in all of them. So I think the answer lies not in one of the arcs but in fully understanding what happened in the past. Just my theory ^^ |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| Rika is gonna scare me, I just know it. |
 |
| when they showed the body in the beginning i first thought it was Keiichi's ... |
| OK I really hate it when the anime isn't following a plot. It becomes pretty confusing for me. >.< Keichi was funny when he was cooking. He was chopping the cabbage in awesome way XD About Rena and Mion - They are the same from the very beginning. They don't seem to act weird for me (weird means weird with respect to themselves). Idk... And I wonder how is possible the people form this village to live so... so... easygoing in it, while knowing about the horrible things that are happening there. |
| Looks like Rena's the demon in this arch. Anyways pretty cool episode |
 |
| I wonder what this arc will be about....It could be about Satoshi,but i'm not quite sure.. |
 |
| Again ? |
| Awe Sataco has a brother!!! her poor family!!! ='( and Rika was so cute X3 lol good thing Sataco came over or Keichii would have surely set the house on fire... good thing he didnt haha... and WOW Coach wants 2 marry Sataco!!! AWKWARD!!! i was like ew that pedophile!!! ahaha then he was talking about adopting her and that would be fine and nice but who knows he might rape her while shes sleeping!!! but yeah... poor Keichii came to the baseball game with a golf club... i would have been so embarrassed to XD good epi all in all =) |
 |
| so i find out that everyone is just a spaz all over again |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Sometimes Keiichi's head aint all there either. |
| Whoo psycho Rena is back. These 'normal' episodes at the beginning of each arc are a bit weird after the brutality of the last episode XD |
 |
| I can't beleive noone said anything about Shion!!!!! Think about the very first arc. Before keiichi batted the shit outta mion and Rena, he was asked by them if he really did like to play baseball. He hesitantly lies and says yes and so mion tells him wait for the manager to come. No matter how many times he asked who the manage was, they laughed hysterically and said "the managers the manager". Looking at this episode, it appears that shion is indeed the manager and just as what had been said in the first arc, shion says "a managers a manager" which definitely proves she is. What this entire thing means in questionable. I'm thinking shion is the bad one that is causing all the trouble somehow. But I can't piece together even half of a conclusion. It's a good thing this anime has been finished cuz I just wanna wath everything in one go if possible. Off topic but... I can't believe I'm watching this show on new years eve and even continuing till after midnight in which Its now a new year. Well I guess all I can say is happy new year!! Bring on 2011 (and 2012 if you beleive in it.....MWuauahahahaha *imitates Rena/mion*) |
  |
| Nice to see the link with the last arc-first proper appearance of the 15-nail torture. And I'm convinced that body in the first scene is indeed Satoshi, but could be wrong... Wooh, creepy Rena is back!! But Mion seems pretty normal in this arc, while Shion is the creepy one. Hmm... |
| "Ah yes, the demon drink...'Nature's Alzheimer's' they call it" |

Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| I was eating when the episode started xD |
