It was a good episode, better pacing, good music. Wasn't suspecting Yakumo was dead (there's 3 episodes to go after this) but wasn't expecting this Nanase plot to resolve so quickly. But I liked Yakumo's mother coming out, getting some redemption. |

The ending of this episode was very touching and romantic. Haruka's mother seems like a nice woman and really trusts her daughter even sending her of to a dangerous mountain cabin. Yakumo's mother was nicer then expected and there where again some good revelations about her. And to love a child she got from such a event that's really impressive. Those two killers will have a harder time now the truth is out, i wonder what they will do next. ![]() |

For some odd reason it gave me great joy to see Haruka slap Yakumo. I also found it adorable when i found out that Yakumo's habit of his hand and his hair from his mother's fiance. Not to mention the connection between him and Haruka. And what i think when said how he didn't know of his mom's relationship until recently, he meant when it came to him and Haruka It was an awesome episode and i can't wait to see how the series will end!

Why the hell did she wait so long to untie him?! I mean, really, she had to go and give him a speech while he's unconscious before untying him? Given, yes, it was a very touching speech, but I just couldn't fully appreciate it since during the whole thing I was thinking, "Untie him already!" Despite my above complaint(s), I really did enjoy this episode a lot. In fact, I think this might be the best one yet. That's majorly due to the music. It was so awesome! Now I definitely need to find those piano tracks on the OST. I hope they play them again in future episodes. Only 3 episodes left. I wonder what's left? I guess I was right earlier when I thought that Miyuki was the surviving Nanase. I didn't think she was the murderess, though. Oh, and I lol'd at the English singing by Miyuki, too. |

Great episode. Having more information on Yakumo revealed was nice, and the scene at the end was very touching. I was glad to learn more about his mum and more importantly, Takeda and her relationship with him. The woman who kidnapped Yakumo is a psycho lady, looking forward to seeing her and the Detective duke it out. I'm a bit more interested in Yakumo's father. If Yakumo's one red eye gives him the ability to see, communicate, and feel spirits, does his father having two red eyes give him more abilities with the dead? If someone who reads the manga could spoil for me, I'd love it. Iilia said: Why the hell did she wait so long to untie him?!

Given, yes, it was a very touching speech, but I just couldn't fully appreciate it since during the whole thing I was thinking, "Untie him already!" My god I was thinking the exact same thing. Just sitting over him crying and talking while he's bound to a chair, seriously what the hell? ![]() |

So touching. A little too much, though it's amazing Yakumo have a nice personality and Haruka a strong one. :D Surprise me a lot. This is a good couple :D. And It smells like a 2º season, do you think this? |

Just sitting over him crying and talking while he's bound to a chair, seriously what the hell? i was also thinking the same thing. it ruined the scene for me. but i never liked haruka anyways so i probably wouldn't have been touched by the scene anyways. i did enjoy the part where yakumo said he wasn't dead though. lol. i think everything came together too easily and was predictable. - ishii and the reporter just happens to find the teacher in the files who just happens to remember miyuki and a secret room. and they're so positive that they would find gotou in that same room, and they did. - although takeda shunsuke told haruka to stay safe and wait for yakumo to return, he tells her where yakumo is anyways. and what does she do? she runs off to "help" him without any protection. - and to be honest, i thought it was weird that haruka's mom just let her go alone to such a dangerous place (if i was the mother, i would have stopped her, insisted on coming with her, or at least follow her to make sure she's safe). - the appearance of yakumo's mother was predictable as well. - i thought it was obvious that miyuki killed her own family. i knew it the minute i saw the kid back in episode 7. as you can see, i find this anime way too predictable and average. it's an okay watch since i have the time though.

"do you have to go already?..." - that line made me cry a little. Very touching episode, revealing a lot about Azusa's reasons for killing Yakumo. And I know I'm repeating myself, but I love the music <3 ![]() |

I'm going to be a contrarian here - but gawd, I hate idiot plots. The only good thing about this episode is that they didn't drag it out any further. What do we have here: - a ghost who helps the idiots find clues - a ghost who saves the idiots - idiot protagonists who run off without telling anyone - idiot psychos who waste time explaining things - idiot cops who not only don't carry guns but fall for the same trick twice in a row Essentially, everyone has to be a total idiot to make the arc come together. That is piss-poor writing. This could have been a decent series, now it has turned into brainless mush. |

After all the buildup, the actual showdown at the cabin was disappointing.... The mystery of Yakumo's mom has been solved, but the way every person is connected by the past is a little cheezy. Also, I want to know why killing Haruka in front of Yakumo would turn him to the dark side (is that what they called it?)? ...and what is the motive of the bad guys? Because right now they just seem random. I'm guessing that is where the story will pick up...? |
