Damn so thats what the Kuhouin family is about, just to keep it "pure blooded", you know in the old days royalty did do that sometimes so this is somewhat believable.

messed up family is messed up. The conversations Shinkurou had with Benika and then Murasaki were really good. Very sweet.

Somebody care to explain to me Shinkuru's patheticaly feeble resistance... isn't he supposed to be a monster sworn to protect Murasaki or sth? I just couldn't feel sad with that episode, because it was basically trying to force me to be sad with lame storytelling... and that rarely is a good idea.

I'm not going to hold Shinkurou's stupidity against him just yet(By going back to the apartment), after all, he never realize who and what he's messing with.

But the fact that he didn't draw his blade does annoy me... If you really want to protect Murasaki at all cost, draw them.

Poor Murasaki.

I wonder with all the incest how can they produce children without major genetic disorders...

Yeah it looks they the production Company gave no thought about that fact.
So the story setting feels some kind of invalid :(

Too late to complain. i re-watched episodes again after a long time and still it make no sense at all. why the hell they returned to that apartment. it was like COME AND GET ME IF YOU CAN. if he really wanted a farewell with others. just invite them to airport and apologize.

also when those two kyouhin memebers came to shinkrou in-front of his apartment and asked about murasaki, a seven year old little girl. That also make no sense at all. its like we already know your place, so please get out of here before murasaki brother come and get her .

if i was writer then i had write something like this, Yayoi noticed about two Kyohin members are following them, so she reported to benika and benika arranged their passport and other things, but information leaked to Kyuohin somehow, about going to other country and they counter them in the way to airport. then they took murasaki from there. that makes alot more sense than two kyouhin members asking shinkrou about murasaki and shinkrou coming back to apartment and get beat so badly without using blade.

Fuck you.

"As she said so herself. She is a woman fated to give birth to my children, as I am her brother."

Like isn't it obvious?

Yeah fuck you Ryuji guy.





Man, this episode is so sad :'(.

Wow. I have real cognitive dissonance from this episode.

"Zomg! They're, like, ubar powerful and dangerous! Will I be okay against them?"
"I'll trust you."
"Okay, cool. In that case, I'm gonna go over, drop my pants and moon the hell out of 'em. I got a good feeling about that."
"Suit yourself, I believe in you."

I mean, what on earth is bonehead thinking? Got to go say her proper farewells? Screw that. Get the hell away. And those two chucklehead neighbors don't help matters either.

"Stay inside girly, girl!"
"Okay, I will. Unless, of course, your neighbor comes by and tempts me with a trip to campus. Or the fair."

These characters don't freakin' LEARN from their mistakes. Drives me insane.

Sure, big Bro is all creepy, but the whole lot of the "good guys" deserve to be thrashed by him just because they're so irredeemably dumb. Gah.

Okay, I love Shinkurou and all, but he needs to suck it up and use the damn blade.

"I don't want to use the one thing that can actually protect Murasaki. Instead, I'm going to get the shit beat out of me and have her taken away to live a horrible, confined life with a bunch of incestuous pricks. But at least I'll be stronger!"

I was literally yelling at him when he was getting the shit beat out of him to just pull out the blade and go psycho crazy on their asses. But do 2D fictional characters ever listen to me? NO THEY DO NOT.

Can't wait for the next episode :)

Me too, but judging by the preview I'm guessing we will have to put up with at least one episodes worth of Shinkurou being all emo about not being good enough to protect Murasaki, before he gets off his tail and actually goes and rescues her from her pervy family.

That's definitely what it looked like. That, and it almost looks as though he tries to forget her or something.

He seemed so confident that he could protect her, so it's kind of strange how she got taken so easily. I was also disappointed that he never pulled out that arm blade... Did he not think the situation was dire enough to warrant him using it?! Seemed like a great opportunity to use it... ._.''

Anyway, it was still a great episode.

pedo kiss


dont think it was that kinda kiss, it was more of a sweet or friendly or family like kiss, for Shinkurou at least. thats what i think.

I took it that way, too. It just seemed like a familial sort of kiss - even more so with Murasaki's explanation afterwards about her mom giving her lots of kisses.

Since we only saw Yayoi be awesome for about two seconds in the very first episode, having her lose to that smirking woman more makes Yayoi look useless than the smirking woman especially fearsome.

This is actually pretty stock stuff going on, but I find it's working as intended; I want to see Shinkurou beat that woman, possibly smash Murasaki's brother one in the face for good measure and rescue her from her family who have quite effectively been made out to very vile indeed.

Annoying episode. Shinkurou went back for almost no reason at all and put Murasaki in danger. What an idiot.

Nothing but plot induced stupidity here.

I don't understand. Why can't the Kohouins actually have children with the women they marry?!?!? Why the HELL is there forced incest? fucking disgusting. someone kill that Ryuuji creep. and WHAT THE HECK KURENAI, sitting there and getting your ass kicked, when you could easily kick all kinds of ass, as we've seen. I agree: plot stupidity.

Very disappointing. As far as his desire to protect her in his own strength, whatever, man... if you want to protect someone, you use the tools at your disposal, unless they are tools that should never, ever be used at all. He's already shown that he's willing to use the monster abilities sometimes, so his not using them when he really needs to is just annoying.
Your mean should be an even bell curve only if you watch every show that comes out. Having a high-slung mean doesn't mean you're rating improperly. It can also mean you're selecting shows well to watch mostly things you enjoy.

That episode was annoying me to no end. The anime is a good one, but I can't stand the main charakter at all. I mean if you have to protect someone and you know that you cannot get shit done than you don't go to the most dangerous place in the city for some kind of goodbye and by doing so endanger all people around me, even those who have nothing to do with this whole mess.

Then this "I will protect you". Wtf, he just got his ass kicked and is just one kick from dying, but he spouts such nonsense. Well I think I speak out of frustration, because weak main charakters who make dumb decisions just tick me off. The anime is still a good one, but with such a main charakter it isn't enough to make a very good impression.

That's a very disgusting and disturbing family tradition you have there Kuhouins.. and the current leader knows that so why are they still following that sick tradition? Do they believe that a curse will befall them or something if they didn't?

Shinkurou is a complete failure.. first he wanted to go back to that shitty apartment to say goodbye to those terrible women knowing that the Kuhoins will come for Murasaki and now that they really did he failed to stop them and protect Murasaki... you have your bone powers, man use it you useless piece of shit.

Well that was a terrible episode. He can go all blady when it really doesn't matter yet can't get it up when the kid is in danger. Piss poor writing to be honest. Or the studio is after a plot holed emotional scene. Either way it's crap. Not sure I want to watch anymore.

This was just stupid. He could easily beat the living hell out of them with his arm blade, but instead he just sat there allowing them to beat the crap out of him. Hard to take the drama seriously when it's his own fault for being a little bitch and not using his blade.

It's your own stupid decision to come back to apartment. And now you're crying like a baby because you can't protect her. LOL here.

Pedo kiss and incest.

What the heck is going on? So, the show is going downhill from here due to the melodrama, which becomes silly!
Numbuh 3, you've got to get off the couch, you cannot sit in that tree house, girl you like Rainbow Monkeys so grab your little shit and then swing!

Shinkurou acting all cocky like "Let's go back to the apartment, I'll protect her no problem" and Benika being ok with it. Yeah, everything was those two fault.

Also, why didn't Shinkurou released the fucking blade from his arm? He was pathetic there.

Btw Yayoi is weak af lol
