He had such a feeling~

Well I am not surprise the guy with the two red eyes is Yakumo's father, but I wonder where did his mother go and why was she trying to kill Yakumo?

Poor Ishii he got transferred because he thought Gotou had supernatural power, but discovered the one with power is Yakumo. I wonder if we'll get to see him again.

Yeah, it would be nice to see Ishii again. He's kind of a fun character. It was an enjoyable episode, even if it was a little cheesy with the way Haruka was captured and then later rescued. Somehow I think whatever ending we'll have with Yakumo's father will be... disappointing. They're trying to make it climactic every time they show him, but I'm just not feeling it. Oh well. I still like this show a lot.

i really like this show. i hope its climactic enough for being a 13 episode series. i didnt even mind the rescue scene. i thought it was cute. i love harukaxyakumo~ anddd i also totally called that douche being his father. so predictable. next week doesnt really look like anything exciting though.

Another good but not great episode. 4/5.

It was pretty obvious that there was going to be some relation between Yakumo and the guy with two red eyes. I also get the feeling that his mum isn't going to be as bad as she seems, something like the dad controlled her to attempt Yakumo's murder.*if 1 eye can do what Yakumo can do I wonder what 2 can do*

This was a nice episode, a killing doctor really sounds like irony with a job like that.
Haruka being relieved by a ghost and eventually saved by Yakumo sounds very romantic.

I think the blond woman is his mother, but i am also having my doubts.

Yeah. I had exactly the same thoughts as well. Since his father has two red eyes rather than one, he could probably control his wife (probably by requesting a spirit to possess her?) to try and kill Yakumo.

I think the manga ended long ago and that the plot is different as well.

The manga is over and it holds very less info for a resource material. The show is primarily based on the novel.

Agreed. So much for a suspense right *yawns*

Good episode. The doctor is on emo crack.
Yakumo's mother should never return. Hope she is dead.
Yakumo's family drama sure will be interesting to know.
If only the show would have been a shounen....

Another good episode.
I am starting to like the relationship between Yakumo and Haruka.
I should have known that Yakumo's dad was the man with 2 red eyes.
Yakumo's family is truly...disfunctional!!

Mmm... nice episode... so sad that Ishii got shot down in a way... I loved the awkwardness between him and Gotou XD
And that the guy is his father... *fake gasp* who seriously didn't see THAT one coming... big cliche there... *rolls eyes*
I'm starting to not hate Haruka too :)
I still REALLY like Yakumo's Uncle... XDD he's so kick ass in his own serene i-do-no-harm way... >.> if that makes sense at all........

This is my favorite episode yet. The pacing was perfect and the reveal about the possession was great, had an impact that the cases have been pretty much lacking up until this point.

I was thinking that the guy would be Yakumo's father, he kinda looks like him. And about his mother - maybe she was posessed or sth like that?... We'll see.

I know i just woke up, but i seriously didn't see him as his father. Oh well.

While i forgot who the heck Andou was, thus leading to confusion, the episode had good flow and built up for the end there. I actually thought the intervention was good; felt a little emotional when he told the dad he was killing his daughter over and over again.

As this series proceeds, it becomes more boring.
So far, everything is so predictable. Only good thing of the anime is Yakumo; His personality is just great.

I really like Yakumo & Gotou's interactions with each other. (Though the bit about almost everything being the reason Gotou's wife left him is getting old..and maybe a little mean.)
I lol'd when Gotou was asking Ozawa how she came to be at the river, to which Ozawa said her friend asked her to, and then Gotou was like, "To drown in a river?" XP Not unthinkable, considering how annoying Ozawa has the potential to be. J/k. ..Mostly. XP

Also--and maybe this is just me--but I was laughing at Andou/Reporter Woman's weird possessed-y noises and whatnot at the clinic.

And finally, what was up with just casually dropping in revealing the red-eyed guy as Yakumo's father?! To me it really felt like it was just 'Oh, and by the way, that guy's Yakumo's father.' There was no real emotion to it, no buildup or anything..it was weird. But maybe that's because the red-eyed guy only appears onscreen for like a minute or two each episode--and most of that is spent standing there, staring.
I am curious to see why the red-eyed guy wants to provoke Yakumo into darkness so badly..Does Yakumo have special, secret evil-y powers to awaken? I hope so. lol
