As I feared, the conslusion seems to be a bit rushed, there's only one episode left and plenty of things to do for the protagonists. The ususal 26 episodes format should have been better in my opinion.

But at the same time, as everything is coming to an end, the script is revealing some very interesting themes and concepts and the characters have really developped a lot, so we can't say that the series is really missing something.

I can't wait for the last ep too, I hope it will be available on subs soon ;)

I don't think so, the Time organization was just fine in my opinion and the episode was awesome....

The preview was very creepy... I think the final episode will deliver an awesome end :D (and a lot of confusing talkin about reality in the ending, just like we know it from GITS <3)

Haha, Taro. xD

Good episode, and we got the confirmation that Taro was trying to call Miyako Mizuka, and failed in the last episode. The preview was awesome, I can't wait for the final episode. Though I wished it would be 24 or even 26 eps.

This episode was surprisingly lighthearted, I mean there was laughter in it, aside from Masayuki occasional joke, that has been a rarity as of late. I hope the typhoon is just in a calm stage (I know nothing of typhoons, so I don't know if there is a calm) because I want that to stay the backdrop for the finale. It does seem a bit rushed, but if it is good then its good, so I'm looking forward to it.

The ending was really good, I'm surprised it's already ending though. This episode didn't seem much like one that's before the last one, but oh well I still liked it! :)

Never has an episode preview left me so pumped. Bring on the last episode. I heard that it is quite rushed, but most of the questions remaining will be answered.

Well, because of lack of subs for Shion no Ou, it looks like Ghost Hound becomes the best Fall 07 anime for me. Depending on the last episode, I might bump the score from 9 to a 10.

It really feels like quite a different anime then when it started. I'm really interested in what's going on, but at the same time it seems like something is off.
I really agree that there should be more episodes. But I love what's been given so far. I hope the ending doesn't dissapoint.

Its interesting how everyones all meeting each other now and planning together. I'm not sure quit whats up with Masayuki and that one lady (whats her name) I think she said gomenasai as those silent words in the car but I'm not sure. Man just one left but it is about the right length for this show I think a few more than 22 would be better like 24 to 26, but whatever. Maybe their will be one of those ova extra episodes or something to add more stuff on later*crosses fingers*

So Masayuki does have a bad taste... Anyways, I'm afraid it might end a bit rushed up too, since there are just too many loose ends to be tied up in just one more ep. I'm definiely looking foward to the next ep, specially to see how Tarou will look like as a girl XD

Yeah, I feel like the series progressed very slowly and now everything's being rushed in the last episode.
But, maybe that will make for a good ending...or a lot of unanswered questions I HOPE NOT ;-; Possibly leaving room for a season 2, though I sort of doubt it.

I lol'd so hard at the end of this episode. Taroutrap was the very last thing I was expecting from this. XD

WTF is with Masayuki and that woman... That was one creepy moment in the car.

I'm looking forward to seeing cross-dressed Taro.

By now everything is just going awesomely! But I fear what might happen in the next episode since I feel like they still have some things to clear but since this anime have not let me down at all I will give them an oportunity of the end n_n

I almost had a heart attack in the preview!! Like seriously I was watching it all calmly and suddenly they start to shout! It was awesome and creepy of course :D

Whoa that was... light. Never thought there'd be a moment like this where main charas assembled and discussed about the next course like that. Felt like a shounen, lol. Sure, sure, so many things are gonna left unanswered but there's still hope they tied the loose ends of the main ropes; that is, Tarou's sista-problem, Suiten's 'gods' and whatever's gonna happen with the biooids. Honestly looking forward to the Tarou trap... cough...

And the preview was... scary, I really didn't expect that.

It's sad such a lovely mind twist's coming to and end.. sad..

I was actually glad to see Hirata again. Didn't think I would like him at the beginning of the series.

It got quite philosophical at the end and I had also to lol at the idea to dress Tarou up as a girl.

One episode left, I really wish for a satisfaying end for this great show.

All the spirits & bioids seem restless. Dragon god is coming?
Priest awakens but weird talk with Journalist, something on grandson of Amaterasu in Kyushu?
A big meetup to explain things sorta. Synchronicity & universe order quite interesting. So the Ogami sect/gang are planning something but mixed with coincidences, and dbi violated natural order.

Omg, that preview has to be the best one in this series by farrr. I did not expect that sudden change from the usual preview and then that horrifying line that Mizuka said, now I'm really looking forward to this.

Nevertheless, not everything is perfect. I still don't like how this whole cult suddenly appeared and now, out of nowhere, is very big. It just feels like a different series with the same characters.

Seems like Sanae, Makoto's mother, returned to her death face form, sadly. Another random thing is Kei. It feels like she was added in these last episodes just to make her somewhat important which made everything worse. And then Sanae and Kei have that weird out of nowhere dialogue at the end. And I was hoping Sanae has finally become a good mother.

Things do feel somewhat rushed in these last episodes and it's a shame given how many random scenes with no meaning appeared throughout the whole series that could have been easily left out.

Just as Dr. Ootori was saying about how she totally respected Masayuki's father, we get a shot with her holding a phallic symbol and a flashback to a foot fetish xD

Also, who's that Hazei mentioned alongside the old woman who took over the sect? I don't remember that name.

This episode feels a bit rushed, with a bunch of characters suddenly being painted as protagonists and comrades when they're anything but. The dragon god and bioid stuff also seems out of left field, especially since the spirit travelling and "ghost hounds" seem to have been completely sidelined in comparison, despite literally being in the title in the case of the latter.
