| Just a quick thought about Yakumo's Mom trying to kill him and all. I don't think she did it because she hated him. I think she tried to kill him because she knew something BIG was going to happen to him later on when he was more grown up, and that is why he tried to kill him. To save him from misery, rather then cause it. xD Too bad for that plan. |
| And how exactly does Shunsuke know Haruka? /orz |
 |
| Decent episode, although it was mostly exposition that was only kind of interesting. I'm actually disappointed that the bad guy is Yakumo's father, seemed so obvious I was expecting things to turn out differently. Guess not! Hopefully things pick up with the next episode. |
| Somehow, when Yakumo's uncle crept up on Haruka like that, I was half expecting him to kidnap her or something for some reason. Must've been that knowing smile he cracked. Ahem, anyway. Nice episode. |
shanimebib said: I don't really go by any specific fansubbing group, but I did notice that the ones in this episode seemed unusually off. And I didn't read everything in that link, but the first sentence says people got upset with the racial slur from last week. I find that kind of funny, because people were cracking jokes about the "N-word" being used, not being all "OMG dem bad guys used DAT word." i am not following this show, however, just want to say that if you were following Nordkohl, you better switch to alternatives since they dropped it. just saying. [Edit: The episode 8 I watched was done by Nordkohl, so since the subs seemed off to me anyways, I guess I won't miss them for that.] :P Anyways... this episode seemed kind of slow to me compared the the last ones. It wasn't as enjoyable for me as the previous ones, either. Which is kind of weird, because this is the first episode I haven't found that much fun. Oh well. Next week should be good. It looks like we might get to see Haruka's mom, too. |

| i thought the episode was slow too and i think it was because yakumo wasnt there, same with last episode. the show just isnt "psychic detective yakumo" without yakumo and if u take out yakumo and goto then its just haruka......which is just.......bad |
 |
| I have tons of questions after this episode. What happened to Yakumo's homeroom teacher? Which one is the real father? Shunsuke Takeda or the bad guy? Anyway I love the development. :)) |
| This series' too short... |
| No Yakumo or Gotou this episode but they managed well without them. i thought the irony was sort of uneeded, they could of just had some other random person save her, and send letters. However we get another rape this season, poor Yakumo. I guess the moment uncle started wearing the red eye was that scene, wasn't very emotional though. (Fine 6/10) |
| The rape thing was..ugh.. Oh, Yakumo u.u I'm still for Ishii, though... |
| Now I want more o_o\ Hold on, Yakumo. |
| This show is one of my favorites this season and the plot is moving along nicely and I can't believe all the shocking developments from this episode. I can't wait to see what happens in the next. |

 |
| Takeda is dead and a ghost, but I have a feeling it is more than that. Haruka, I'm not surprised that she fell asleep; seeing how retarded her character already is. Just another stupid thing she did; she did jump into the water on her own. This episode and 7 were better paced, hope they keep it up. Still can't stand Haruka, but the other characters make up for it. |
 |
| :O I thought this was the most interesting episode so far~ Haruka can't seem to find Yakumo fast enough though... |
| Seiyuu Chief Miyagawa this Junko Minagawa? |
| getting more interesting~ |
     |
| Liked some interesting facts but the sad thing is how Yakumo came to be.. |
| ^ Lol Seriously.Haruka is soo stupid that she went to sleep when she knows she has to do something important and who the heck is that guy who wants to protect those two? it's about time Ishii is getting brave. |
 Love is filled with mystery |
| Getting slightly better woop |
| Late watching FTW Anyways, so ... another OK episode I guess. God, the whole story about their mothers and "tied together with strings of fate" or whatever? I HATE stuff like that -_-" If this wasn't a one season anime I'd have dropped this already >_< Plus, it's way better when you're not ONE THOUSAND PERCENT CERTAIN the characters aren't going to die -_-" That being said, mystery was OK ... that random Yakumo mom's fiance guy = wtf? Wow, is everyone super smart or something? I mean come on ... -_-" Hope this anime starts getting better soon, because the "mysteries" I signed up to watch aren't there |
| I was disappointed that they made Ozawa's mother conveniently rescue Yakumo's mother and become friends with her. It just seems too contrived. Lame. I have to say, I feel kinda bad for Yakumo & Gotou..Having to rely on the Scooby Gang to save them--that can't be a comforting thought. :\ |
 ~Heart & Thoughts With Japan~ |
| I thought haruka's been kidnapped in the previous ep~ O.o Ishii has finally become more useful~ Ooh that's it! YakumoxHaruka is fated ahaha XD The story is getting more exciting. |
mingling with each other are the flames of red and blue |
| The pace is slowing down which is good. Looking forward to the next episode! :) |
 |
| I thought it was boring. |
| I lol'd at those who complained about Haruka falling asleep, they sure never experienced not sleeping for few days huh.Back on topic, this episode is BOSS, its got a nice development and mystery, so far I am liking that Takeda Shunsuke dude, wonder who he really was.. |

| Is this... getting a plot?? This isn't about ghosts anymore. XD Yakumo! D: |
| Someone new, some past about his birth, connection with their mothers and more damn the plot really is thickening, lets see what's next! |
 |
| This episode was so amazing and intense ~~ |

GarLogan78 said: lol this was probably the first episode of Yakumo I found actually entertaining. I hope it keeps up like this. How stupid can Haruka be, falling asleep in a time like that? All she had to do was pick up the phone and call her mom. This pretty much sums up how I feel. I was thinking that if this damn show didn't get any better, it would be verging on a score of 2 due to flat characters and plot. I'm glad something is starting to happen. This episode at least bumped it to a 3 for me. |
 |
| Nice development here,good episode... |
| What a fate,their mothers know each others. |
 |
| Wow, poor Azusa. That was terrible! Nice episode. |
 "No matter how far you travel, you can never get away from yourself." -- Murakami Haruki |
| So why did Yakumo's mom appear as a ghost in the vid? Or was that all just bait? |
 |
| This was a damn good episode. This show keeps getting better with each episode. I love it <3 |
 |
| I don't like the "oh here is this important letter with important information I have kept for decades and never opened". I find it funny that it's implied the cops chased Takeda's ghost on foot for hours since it started when it was daylight and he finally disappeared at night. They must have been tired. |
 |
| A lot was revealed in this episode, and most of it either made me sigh or cringe. The show is really trying to force everything to connect, and it's painful to watch. A man kidnapped Azusa. No, just quit the surprise reveal and say her husband kidnapped her for 2 weeks, geez. I'm actually kinda surprised Haruka sleeps at all cause she doesn't bloody change her clothes, that's for sure. |
 |
| Honestly, this whole series would be much better if Haruka didn't exist. Her suddenly saying how she hasn't slept in so long makes no sense. We've never seen a hint about that ever since Yakumo was kidnapped and her eyes looked very normal. Besides that, you need a lot of strength to yell at a person and also run, which she did just fine. Even if she was very tired, the decision to jump in the bed in a dark room on her own when she knew how important calling her mother is which doesn't even take a lot of energy, was the most idiotic thing to do. I just can't stand her. Great episode otherwise, we finally get to know a bit about the past and Azusa's fiance might be the best! |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| Things heating up in this episode. Haruka managed to avoid getting in trouble for once as well, which is shocking. |
