| pretty nice episode, the part with the doc testing drugs and stuff on her was very exciting. Hope this keeps up like this and doesnt become boring like the last episodes again. |

     |
| Aww I felt sad for Kyoko right when she started whimpering. ;_; Why can't Toshio experiment with someone more annoying? Like Masao or Megumi. |
| This episode redeemed Shiki for me in one fell swoop. It was kind of slipping a bit after the hiatus but it was just building up in preparation for this part. Brilliant. Showing the regeneration up until the veins and blood itself was just great and outright scary. Toshio in that last part covered in blood just screams madman but I know he's still sane and hurt inside. Now how will they apply the knowledge here to defeat them. Excellent episode. Oh and Masao getting beat up by Megumi warrants this 5/5, even without Toshio's experimentation. Question though. Since when did Toshio start calling them shiki? Didn't he call them okiagari? I know they call themselves shiki but since when did Toshio start calling them in the same name and who told him? I forgot :| |

| And this is why I normally stray away from shows that are 'likely to contain lots of gore', because I want to spare my soul. Anyhow, watch it or not? |

I think that's just about it for the goriness...umm, unless you count another staking to the heart gory? what about desperate self defense from a shiki? I don't think there will be any goriness for a while though. |
 |
| WHAT THE.. |
| the fat nurse in bikini was the scariest part . But the expression on Toshio's face at the end was priceless. |
| He was so cold and aloof while experimenting on her, it was kind of scary. But not like they were very close. But now they know some of their secrets, so maybe they can slow down the slaughter in the village. |
| Which chapter in manga that cover the torture ? I wanna to compare. |
 |
JustRad said: also I laughed hard at this.. :D |
| Fantastic. Through all the slow moments and circling of events obvious to the viewer, this is where Shiki's commitment to focusing on the town's devolution through incident and overall uncharacteristically realistic approach to vampires pays off. This was a powerful episode, and I enjoyed it immensely. The doctor's behavior is very interesting. His move toward coldness was obvious, but the perspective he must have adopted to carry through with this is... something. It's not simply a matter of abandoning all love for his wife, enduring screams of torture, and giving everything to experimentation. You see, he heard her speak. This is key. Communication was possible. There were other angles to approach the vampire problem. There were important angles. He could have seen in what ways it perverted her perspective, how pervasive the need for blood was, the connection to her old life, and more. A lot could have been done with conversation. But no, the doctor has devoted himself purely to their injury and elimination. Giving up entirely upon the vampires is not fully unreasonable. He's seen family members attack each other and the death rate in the village is absurd, but it's not at all a trivial conclusion for him to come to. Anyway, this episode cemented my interest in the series. Hope the rest lives up to it. |

| Insane..... Like everyone else, I felt bad for her. How could Toshio do this? He lost it, seriously. |

| Autopsy on a vampire..... And Toshio is pretty hardcore... :D 5/5 |

Inarius said: crap...they didn't show when he poured acid on her...i was hoping they would animate that part godlike episode nevertheless  F*cking fabulous. Best friggen episode of this show to date... Did i mention that was awesome? (Masterpiece 10) When a episode actually makes me flinch in horroring disgust, that is a very good thing. I loved how he gradually became insane, and the application of the scientific process on live Shiki research. God that stake scene... O.o |
Yukari_Hiwada said: Awesome. SO FREAKIN' AWESOME. If it was human, it would be cruel but then his wife was dead. And he took good care of her before she did (or did he?). Killing his undead wife is actually the best decision. /end rant. Except the shiki still feel pain, emotion and have their memories intact. Other than the fact that they kill humans, drink blood and are dead, they are pretty much the same as humans. Excuse that they are not human is not really an excuse. This is deep into grey zone. |

mel-hime said: Same here. I felt really sad and felt bad just for watching that. Whole hearted depression, everyone dying, wife wakes up as a shiki, using her as a subject, killing her....its all so depressing.OMG.......the last scenes....with Kyoko...were...very disturbing and sad...i felt terrified at some point....very well done.5/5 |
 |
| That episode was messed up! Poor Kyoko... I love this episode though. |
| BRUTAL!!!!!!! |
| Like you all said it, the episode was truly fantastic! Quite disturbing and gory, but still really enjoyable. And I didn't feel sorry for Toshio's wife at all, she would have killed far more people, if Toshio didn't stop her. I can't wait to see the next episode after watching that preview! |
| I actually loved Kyoko and the couple itself, and seeing her being tortured like that was really disturbing. As we noticed, so far all the shiki haven't lost their true selfs, I believe that goes the same for Kyoko...:( he could have experimented on any other patient, why it had to be her.. ;( |
 |
| He had to do it, dammit! Toshio looks even more exhausted and he has finally lost it. I also loved this episode. |
| My god, my eyes were glued when Ozaki's testing started. What a man. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Oh my god. 5/5 I think Toshio managed to go through with it because he doesn't know that Shiki retain there human feelings. To him there just monsters. |
 |
| Best episode so far for sure. It's good that someone don't mind getting their hands dirty to defeat those Shikis xD |
| Godly episode. Few characters (in fact, only one in this series) could kill their own abomination-risen wife to help society get rid of such a threat, but this valiant doctor could. All hail Ozaki ! It was kinda sad since we now know that Shikis retain their old personality after death (and thus Kyoko was still the same Kyoko he had loved and wed), still, it had to be done and probably results in the only true good development for the human side since the beginning of the series. Clear, logical and powerful, it was a Hell of an episode script-wise (including the Masao and Megumi scene and the death of the kids' father). |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| holy sh!t. ... I have never felt sooo horrified watching an anime in my life... and I'm not feint of heart; I've seen gore-fests (elfen lied), psychologically f'ed up (mononoke)...etc, but this took it to another level... what was f'ed up?? -she could feel everything -she was gagged -she was repeatedly tested on -she was his WIFE -... and he didn't give a fawk... damn son! mind-blowing.... genius. this show is phenomenal. we're witnessing something EPIC people.

| It was about time that something interesting happened in the show. -Another scene of the man with an awesome beard. -Hell Yeah, Masao is back! -Awesome fanservice from the nurse(Dayuum) -And the best part, the experimentation on the Shiki. It would be amazing to see the rest of the episodes be as interesting as this one. |
| That shiki experimentation part gave me the creeps. The doctor officially lost his will to continue being a doctor... Ohhh, I don't know... |
     |
| Oh wow...that got a bit grisly. Oh....Ozaki is one cold ass bastard sometimes. I don't blame him for doing all of that, I would have too, but he didn't show any emotion during it at all. Also, I love that Masao hasn't show up for ages until now, just to be beaten up by Megumi. :D |
| Haha Toshio's expression pretty much the entire episode: =_= |
 |
| Great episode - probably the best one yet. I was shaking in m chair because I have a fear of dissecting stuff but that's what makes the episode awesome. 5/5 |
| Doctor's been redeemed in my eyes! Let's hope more episodes are like this and don't drag on with people dropping like flies and Megumi being her usual fucking annoying self. |
| OMG luved this ep simply disturbing although i did feel sorry for kyoko but ye i cannot wait to see the next ep kinda exited lol |
 |
Surprised no ones mentioned this creep.  There so screwed =( |
| |
| Oh, another good-looking nurse, yatta~ (But since she's got a terribly "normal" hair-style, she's a very low priority side character : <) Anyway, this is just getting better all the time. What it needed really was some blood and gore. Oh and moar Megumi. (As well as more of her hitting the creep, whatever his name was.) |
| Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile. Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(ﾟДﾟщ) Nope™, probably not. |
| Awesome episode !! Really disturbing and i was like o_O!!; Felt sorry though for her wife :( and LMAO at this post aki3chan said: ... Now I know that no fangirl would ever fantaize being doctors girlfriend XD XD |
| Ah, this episode was disturbing. But than again, I was not expecting anything else of the series. >.< Nice to see the doctor show some backbone and deal with the situation. His wife is probably better off now. He most likely saved a few lives with his morbid action too. Wonder what happens next, maybe Yuki is not cremented after all? Wonder what he is up to when he wakes up? O.o |

Them" ideology. You have to notice you don't have to always take the human side in everything. Impartially speaking, what the doctor did is no better than what the shiki did. They were all doing it for survival. However that doesn't remove the fact that it is in the grey zone. Obviously, unless your vision are tainted in black and white.... Based on your extreme assumptions, you can justify a lot of things you may never even think of. |

| HELL YEAH MEGUMI!! Finally someone slapped Masao :D Ozaki going nuts! I wonder what Seishin reation when his best buddy has crossed line of morality just to find way to kill shiki? |
