I can see how this might link with the first chapter...I remember everyone in the chapter saying "no idea what your talking about" and stuff like that to keichi when he asked about a murder at that place....maybe keichi somehow forgets it completely?

My assumption is that this is another Question arch, therefore won't solve anything about the first arch, and that Kai will explain the first arch here. JUst what I think.

Anyway, Rena killing the pimp was outragously funny. =D

There was some awesome machete action. Sonoko's uncle finally got what he deserved... again. For a second there, i thought that Rena was going to kill Keiichi. There are 3 more episodes, so we might be able to see Mr. Machete again.

I'm all in for justified killings and those two really had it coming, loved the part where Rena smashed the head in on that bitch Ritsuko.

And cheers for true friendship, just hope Ooishi won't act all cool and ruin everything =/

Did she ever even contemplate TELLING her dad instead of just killing someone? Stupides. Anime. Logic. Ever. Not to mention the fact that everyone was so calm that she just killed someone.

I'm so amazed that no one is weirded out by the fact that they just killed Satoko's uncle. Again, greatest logic ever.

Tha chances of him believing her ain't the highest.
And even if he does, it is too late. The pimp already threatened her father.

And it is not anime logic. It is fiction logic.

But well I dont get why she just didnt go to the police, they would obviously know who they are, seeing that shions bodyguard knew about them.
Still, this way it was more fun ^^
I probably regret this post by now.

Murderous Rena's the scariest dan thing in this show. That was some no holds barred gore! Though I did feel this murder was a bit more justified. Some crazy evil whore & her pimp are trying to ruin your father, & then she tries to kill you?! Oh hell no! Beat that bitch with a pipe!

I can't believe you people are encouraging the group's actions. It's morally wrong and it actually makes them all accomplices. Just not right o_O

Edit: Then again, I was glad Rena killed those two...so who am I to talk about morals? u_u'

As much as this episode reminded me of Yu-Gi-Oh: The Abridged Series, I actually found Keiichi's friendship speech to be quite compelling. I had no idea that nakama also included helping your friend hide the bodies after brutally murdering two people (well okay, one of them was sorta in self-defense, but only up until she bashed Rina's head in). They really do care.

No, seriously. I'm just glad that creepy Rena has finally figured out how she can stop being so creepy. Instead of trying to kill your friends, simply rely on them more. And try to stay away from murdering people in general. And don't carry axes with you to the scrapyard. In fact, don't carry axes with you at all, unless you're going to be chopping wood.

I think that that speech was truly a Crowning Moment of Heartwarming.
Of my friend, I can only say this: of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most... human.

This anime is truly unique. That scene on top of the van where they all reached out to Rena was extremely well done. I almost completely forgot all the previous arcs and events and how much happened. Minus Rika and Satoko, the characters are all bat-shit psychotic. Yet even then, it was a heartwarming moment for all of them.

5/5 and I am looking forward to seeing how Ooshi becomes a factor in all this.

Oishi knows everything!!! its crazy!!! and wow i cant believe Rena actually killed them... if it was only the guy first... then her dad wouldnt have gotten hurt but its okay because now her dad knows he did something wrong. . . omg it was so nice of them 2 say that to Rena!!! wow i cant believe that one girl strangled her!!! i mean i guess it was okay for Rena to kill her because it was self defense right??? she just got a little out of hand in the end but thats fine because her friends were there to get her sane again =D wow and she was prego!!! that sucks!!! poor baby died 2 =( anyway i LOVED the epi!!!

-then followed by a true display of friendship

Well, despite being gory, this episode was also surprisingly heartwarming. Though I don't think I'd ever find friends like that... Anyway, I found it cool that Rena didn't get into "psycho-mode". She murdered Rina in self-defense (well, kinda) and figured she'd do the rest for her father while she was at it. Now I'd just like to know if/when this will connect with the first arc and whether or not the thing regarding the drugs will be answered. Either way, there's Kai next so... no big deal.

I was soooo rooting for Rena to kill that bitch! And I cheered when she killed that dude, too... and in such a bloody fashion. I LOVED IT! And Keiichi and the others were surprisingly nonchalant about Rena killing two people haha

It seemed a bit too soon for her to go into crazy sadistic mode, considering how long it seemed to take for the previous answer arc... so I was totally not expecting this so soon. O_o
As always, during the killing scenes, I had to cover my eyes and put the volume to 0.......but then for some reason I immediately have this curiousity that makes me rewind with the volume on 10%....just cringing. Of course, I just had to blink RIGHT when that 1 second shot of that evil lady's head bludgeoned like crazy appeared, and I'm afraid I'm going to have to once again, hide under my covers at night. It doesn't really help that the first day of school is tomorrow. >_<''
Ah well, off to the next episode. It's amazing how well everything is falling into place.

Honestly couldn't blame her. Justifiable homicide in my book.

Anyway, anyone else find themselves cheering when Rena was beating the shit out of her? And even more when she raised the cleaver above her head, about to kill him?
