| It was painful to watch the girl getting attached to Hei when you know how he is. Finally,the girl from the OP make her appereance. I was like "Is that you C.C. ?" |
 |
| Feel like I have to re-watch the last 2 episodes over again since I'm so lost on what happened. No more multitasking while watching this show. Gotta be 100% focused while watching since this seems like a show you have to watch a little bit more interpretatively than thea average anime |
| I guess I was wrong, Mina didn't die. Weird ending to this arc...Well at least we got a little bit of insight on Hei's past. |
 |
| The more answers we get the more questions it raises, this stuff gets trippy. |
 |
| guess i have to admit it but i didn't understand what was going on in this one actually. all i can say is that the soundtrack and atmosphere used in this was superb. furthermore it looks like all events happening there have to do something with the fact that the hell gate can give people what they want from it if an equal price is paid for it. another point to mention is that i faintly got the imagination of nick being the same person as li only with the difference in his outer appearance. maybe he's the li from a parallel universe or something like that. this could also be connected to the gate as i've mentioned already. |
 |
| Not understanding something in this show is a completely different feeling than not understanding something in Peguindrum. This arc was good. The indian chick was kinda useless though |
| Hope they explain everything that has to be explained so that I can reminisce this arc back and put it right back to my understanding of the show like a puzzle |
 |
| Didn't think the Indian chick would survive this arc tbh Girl from the opening is finally making an appearance? |
 |
| Kind of slow paced. Not my favorite episode/storyline |
 |
on 
| 'She found what she has lost, now her renumeration is completed', maybe finding love was the thing she lost because she said she never met a contractor/person like Hei before |
 |
| I love the scenes with the falling stars and the rocket. It's beautiful. So the gate makes people see what they had lost. Makes this episode feel rather bittersweet. |
| I'm so confuuused, what's even going on here T^T And why is every single lady having hots for Hei? I was hoping we'd get to know him a little better, but now I know he has a big sister complex, and that's about it. Sigh. |
  |
| the music in this ep was really sick. wow |
 |
| quite a confusing episode, lots of questions, complete with C.C. from Code Geass, and featuring a blonde Shinichi Kudu |
| this was the first time a contractor had pupils, normally you could recognize them by having totally different eyes (without pupils), but nick had some, so... also, i HATED meena in this episode, she was so clingy and whiny and literally shaking every time she said anything, behaving 100% irresponsibly. this whole whiny shaky crush behaviour was just standing in the way and making everything more complicated. just focuse on the job girl edit: ok maybe they did have pupils, at this point i'm not sure anymore :( |

| Very nice conclusion. I loved watching the friendship develop between Hei and Nick - all of the parallels between them. It was nice to also see a contractor like Hei who apparently has retained some of his emotions and dreams. Maybe in another lifetime they would have become friends. cyruz said: And maybe I'm going in too deep with this, but somehow I think Hei's dark, dull blue eyes sort of represent a night sky without stars. Stars seem to play an important role so perhaps this isn't totally off ^. I like that thought. Loved the surreal imagery within the Gate especially at the end. I wonder at the deeper meaning of it all. |
  |
| Wait what, i feel like i understood the episode as well as not |
 |
| Maybe I am simply used to shows that have a bit of a WTF factor but I thought it was all pretty clear to me. Mina has regained the ability to love and fall in love (hence her standing there at the end crying for having lost Hei), Nic probably dissolved or died and while doing so regained everything he had lost (his dead sister, his joy and innocence), in the case of Hei I am not sure but we will find out |
| Interesting ending and nice to see the girl from the OP (seems like a potential interesting character tied deeply with Hei somehow) but I found the episode itself to be pretty boring, the show's surprisingly inconsistent when it comes to its entertainment again as this one felt like it took forever to get through this episode. The show's had a couple good arcs, couple bad arcs, nothing spectacular really halfway through. At least the dub is solid and the music is good, although Yoko Kanno's done a lot better imo. |
| Seems this episode hard to digest. Hei just need to check what happened inside. Some of scientist know Hei. Idk either what they are working for. A piece of meteor just work fine well. I don't see any intense fight in here. |
| Man, Hei sure knows his way around the ladies. Of course, the guy who doesn't care about women is the one that gets along with them the best. It felt forced as to how fast Meena seemed to become attracted to Hei. I mean, her having a crush felt normal but going from that to jeopardizing the mission for him was just unnatural. |
| LMAO, that rocket scene |
| Well Nick got his wish granted, but at what cost...? |
| `Because you're the kindest people I ever met` Can't tell if the Indian woman is just horny for Hei or there's other thing she looks at him |
| Who's Yin?? And why did Hei thank her at the end. She didn't do anything aside from showing up there and saying nothing. This episode was confusing as well, but seems like the first "cour" is over and that girl that's in the second opening has appeared. I guess the memory fragment also has its powers since it did something to Nick, sadly he died. Those two were very identical after all, so Hei's wish to kill that scientist wasn't random. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| It was obvious that Nick was behind it all... |
 |
| Eeeeeh... can we please get that detective back again? |
This green bitch Li getting out alive when Nick shot him was asspulled outta nowhere. Can't understand what is going on at all, its more boring than geology class. Dropped |
 Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate. I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death. |
Reply to Sandgolem
I have no idea what was going on...I was following the story fine up until the blast. Where it got really really fucking trippy. I have no idea what that indiana woman's power was, let alone her rumination, and I have no Idea what Yin did besides look at Hei through the puddle.
| @Sandgolem Same Story telling is ass and can't focus on what each character is doing. Its like they forgot there was an audience watching and just went on a drunk spree improvising. |
