----------------------------------------
Wow pretty good episode here, lots of action in it and good to see Kazura using his ability^^ That mysterious that grabs Yukina sure isn't an opponent to take lightly :) I love the way Aoi fights, but it' a shame that the enemy got away.

I hope this doesn't take as long as the last to get subbed.

My impatience caused me to watch the raws instead.

From what I've understand based on my rusty Japanese skills, the enemy has something to do with Yukina's brother.

And Yukina seems to hold dearly on that pen which I assumed is given by her brother.

Kazura looks awesome when he uses his ability and Aoi, very wise to use chewing gum but your Chinese is still horrible.

On second though, that guy with the hat (the one who accompanies Sakurai and has no speaking role in the last two episodes) also has powers and he erased that Chinese girl's memory on what just happened. He reminds me of the Haitian from Heroes.

Same here, watched the raw. xxxholic_wing, thanks for the explanations.
So far this is my favorite episode, loved the action and supernatural abilities in combat =) Probably, there will be more enemies with such powers. Waiting for subs...

Well so now the plot is starting to get a bit thicker...not thick yet, but it's good to see that they don't plan to let this one bleed out like Sora no Woto.

So her brother is still with the Japanese military, even with the imperial fraction, so the question to ask now is wether he is on their side or being used by them.
I also wonder wether they need Yukina's powers for something or if it's just her brother's wish for her to be safe...good questions and I hope answers are coming.

The little girl was a bit cliché...being the only one who hid instead of running for an exit. But it was okay and it was needed to give a glimpse into hat-guys power of erasing certain memories.
And even though it's a bit cheap, at least it gives them the ability to pull of this setting without creating a whole 'different reality'...he can just use his technique and make everyone forget about the Sakurai group.

So next week it's about Kazura as it seems. At least it's about photography and he's the owner of the shop, so it's a good guess to assume it's about him. I wonder if Natsume will get an episode for himself, too.
Fuuran could also be developed...but that's totally optional. And I think Sakurai will be saved as either the mysterious good guy or the antagonist until the very end.

I too watched the raws and enjoyed the 3rd episode quite a bit. xxxholic_wing, that's a pretty good comparison; I had forgot about that guy. (blame the show)


If somebody can help me out with Aoi's ability, I guess he has to really focus if he wants to push it back; elsewise, he's on a timer and bullets will deflect away from him.

this show is getting better I guess.

This reminds me of Ghost in the Shell quite a bit with how they communicate and the way their organization is.
The department stores were beautiful and it was cool to watch them sneak around. The background animation is done really well.

Haha dude got owned : D

Anyway, I'm still interested in how time relates to these powers, and why only the 'good guys' seem to have a certain time limit, while this enemy dude could apparantly operate for a longer time.
Also, if it's "normal" (assuming that having powers is normal) to be able to have more than one of these powers, since the dude obviously had two, even though he said he could just use the second one a little.

when i saw the preview for the next epi i thought:
"superpowers+mysterious organizations+cat...can it be Darker than Black?!"

seriously, though, it's a shame this series is so short, it's coming along quite nicely.

Great action packed episode.

I liked this a lot. This is really fun to follow.

Well, this was a good episode. Better than the last two at the very least, and they were by no means bad to start with.

Anyway, it's good to get some light shed on what these people actually are, namely Espers, and i'm quite starting to like Yukina. I get the feeling she'll be one of the better developed characters over the series.

One thing I would like from this show, though, is some more info on Natsume. It's only the third episode, so there's still plenty of time, but it would be nice for him to get a bit more limelight.

I didn't like the first episode, it was confusing and kind of boring. This and the second episode was fun though, good to see the show is getting better :)

As it's been said, the show's steadily gotten better as we've gotten to know the cast better and the circumstances. Still nothing that really grabs me, but it's moving in the right direction.

Still confusing, and getting even slower and more formulaic as the weeks pass.I fear I have to drop this one now.

What kind of pistol was Aoi using? I've never heard of a gun that would explode if you stuff gum in the barrel... but then again, I've never seen anyone put gum in a pistol's barrel, lol...

Was the enemy psychic soldier using a Luger? It sure looked like one but I don't know if it was the 1905 model. The barrel looked like it was too long to be the P08 model...

I'm glad it seems to be getting better reviews here, because I watched it at this website, and it has a rating of 6, which sucks. I like this anime...I think its pretty good.

Yukina's telepathy is much more complex than the one I'm used to see on movies or other animations. Much more useful as well.

But Aoi's power is my favorite. He can practically fly! *-* Or not, but whatever, that scene was cool.

Awesome action in this one, and nice strategies.
