Tatsumi's one-piece hoodie is officially the craziest get-up I've seen in this Anime. It even one-upped Chizuru's dress made out of strips of red tape.

They crammed a LOT of chapters into this episode. Woah. They're definitely going to cover the rest of the series in 22 episodes now. Next episode contains stuff from Chapter 36, which is amazing considering that Chapter 37 only came out a week ago.


I don't get this. Aren't both the anime and manga derived from a novel? It makes sense then how the story in the anime will soon overtake the manga.


The Shiki Anime/Manga are loosely based on the novel. In the novel, Natsuno stayed dead, for example. So it wouldn't make much sense if they suddenly went from adapting the manga to adapting the novel.

LOL They obviously wanted to show that Humans are evil too. What's with the scary look ?



Although I wanted some vamps to die, this is really sad. =[

What I really wanted is some interesting story. And I'm sure that the previous ep, 18 was the best ep in this whole anime.

19 was the 2nd best ep.

I wonder what will happen to the girl who gave her mom blood. It sure felt scary more than vamps waiting outside. lol

So sunako falls into sleep because she lived too long ? Will she eventually die too ?

I expected that the vampires will at least hold on for quite long but they just are just escaping. =[

Maybe it's to claim that the hunted became a hunters. Killing, the other way or another in order to survive is inhuman and "evil" in both cases, isn't it?

I almost choked myself with my dinner, when I saw Tatsumi's costume. It look so.... *facepalm* . Character designers must have had a lot of fun with this.

Doctor went evilish, Senhin went emo and Tooru went histeric enjoyed his breaking voice very much, ima a sick sadist to the core.

The story is finally going to the final arc and I'm eager to see how this all going to end and if my predictions are right (on the other hand I hope it won't be so mellodramatic as I think ;p)

I think they are trying to switch it around so that viewers feel bad for the shiki. Maybe all Sunako wants is a place to live where they can fee on humans all day... wait, they are still the bad guys. I still feel bad for them though.

The shiki war has begun!!
Yes, shikis have a right to feed, but humans also have a right to defend themselves against being someone's dinner. I guess Sunako didn't think about that.
Tatsumi is just the epitome of beefcake, but his fashion sense is just...O_o
I'm glad Chizuro is dead...now if someone could just kill Megumi...
I can't wait for the part where...

Same here. The only thing he has is the looks except that he just a suicidal bloody priest with loli + sucking fetish.

So damn proud of Okazi.
No Natsuno this episode T_T
Wow Tatsumi...the shorts look good ..surprisingly.
Loved the blood spree specially Chizuru's stake scene.
Its same both ways; humans and Shikis killing to to survive.

There is no such thing as right or wrong in this situation. It is just a matter of from which view point do you see it from. Kill or be killed.

If it wasn't for him this will be just another of many Vampire VS Human shows. I think this role will be play more in the next episode where they will explain why did he want to kill himself which led him to join Shiki instead.

Im sorry but i still cannot agree. Allow me to say my opinion (again, i do not wish to offend the fans).
If it wasn't for him this would be another Vampire vs humans show? with him or without him, this is in fact a vampire x humans show, and a great one. one single character would not change the show, its takes at least two to make a difference.
until now the most exciting scenes were the ones lead by other characters, specially supporting ones.
Also,a person who really wishes to die would not join the shiki, because obviously, there would be 50% chance of becoming a risen.
I do not blame his wish to die, but even Natsuno that also "wants" to be killed like he mentioned before (kill all shikis including himself), even him at least is doing something. The monk limited himself to say philosophical things without explaining the reason why he wants to die, a reason that surpasses the bond he had with his best friend Ozaki, and we still got no clue why he joined the shikis.
Pity for Sunako? maybe. But then if it was for that, i will dislike him even more, because he didnt feel any pity for humans and when his best friend needed his help he turned his back on him. Iam wrong?
Im still hoping he will at least redeem himself with Ozaki. Otherwise ill keep my opinion that he is indeed useless.

But thats only my opinion, and ofc, we all have different opinions...

There was that part towards the end of the episode where Sunako and Seishin were talking about Seishin's book and that the brother had killed in order to live. I think that statement was the "theme" of the episode, if not the whole series. The shiki kill humans in order to live, and now the humans are killing shiki so that they in turn won't be killed. Basically, it seems to be one big killing cycle that raises a lot of moral questions and obviously makes for an awesome storyline. :D

Yeah, I've had enough of Seishin. He's done absolutely nothing throughout the show except give opinions on the situation. I can't believe he chose to side with Sunako instead of his best friend, Toshio. Like you, I am also hoping he will somehow redeem himself in these last few episodes.

Didn't Sunako basically want to wipe out a village and replace all the once human villagers with Shiki villagers? That doesn't sound like killing to survive, that sounds like murdering for an ambition.

Mmhmm. We definitely need someone to give him a good kick in the face every once in a while. "Let's run away together"? Lol, not on your life. Also, Sunako and Shimizu wear such awesome clothes. They really need to give Tatsumi some advice. These last two episodes he has not looked good at all. :P

The war starts. I can't wait. There's only 3 episodes left - is that really enough to finish this off well? I hope so. If not, I would love a second season, but I doubt we'll get one as it seems we'll have a rushed finish for this one. Anyways, it's an amazing show, and I'll miss it when it ends.

I enjoyed seeing the many diff characters and how they are affected by this "purge"...

Ozaki is the MAN. The animators may be trying to get the message across that there's 2 sides to every coin... by drawing the villagers so severely... I don't feel sorry for the shiki though. at all.

How is this going to end?!

Considering Fuyumi Ono's degree is in Buddhist Studies, it would not surprise me one bit if Seishin is a bit of her own criticism of some of the core buddhists beliefs.

That said, yet another awesome episode. My favorite part was probably Megumi roundhouse kicking Masao in the face.

Sigh. People who hate Seishin clearly do not understand him. Too long to explain, but nice episode.

We finally start to see the "beast-like" side of the humans, to show that there isn't a single difference between the humans and the shikis.

So Seishin's siding with the Shiki is his choice. And form a neutral POV there is nothing wrong or loathsome about that.
bla bla bla
The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

I think Natsuno has him in hiding, maybe. That's how Tatsumi seems to have taken it, and he has a good reason to think that.

Seishin looks like he is on his deathbed as it is anyway, so he'll probably die one way or another, maybe. He doesn't appear to have any strength to fight back at least.

No logical, rational explanation of Seishin Muroi can ever explain his irrational, stupid behavior. Might as well divide by zero.

This is not "beast-like" behavior by humans. Not everyone are forced to kill shiki. In the shiki's case, they have to drink blood lest they die.

If you play Fallout: New Vegas, humans in this show are the NCR; the shiki are Caesar's Legion. Both have their faults (the NCR also have that Bitter Springs massacre) yet they're worlds better than Caesar's Legion.

I feel like I must be one of the only people who actually like Seishin. I mean, if your a suicidal monk who's had a suckage life and a go with it type of personality, chances are if you meet a loli who can actually sympathize with you, you're gonna join her vampire brigade. :x

And I absolutely love Tatsumi's wardrobe. At first I was like WTH. And then I was like AAWWW YEAAAAAHHH! YEAH TATSUMIIII!

payback time you shiki bastards! finally, most of the village fights back. crazed mob mentality. poor Kaoru though .... after everything that poor girl has really lost it. as much as I hate Megumi, seeing her make fun of and beat up that creepy idiot was great.

I have to respect and like Ritsuko for being one of the few to not give in and sending that other nurse in there to be her victim? that's just cruel and there's no way she'd do that.

where is Natsuno though? he must plan something as I'm sure he's the only one who can really fight the other 2 werewolves.

I love that badass old guy and Ozaki though and I really really hate that cowardly monk. really? your a monk and you'll just sit back and do nothing but condone your village being slaughtered for "survival"? what about the survival of the innocents. I hope someone does kill him. what a pathetic character. I know they want you to feel some sympathy towards the shiki and him but I don't.

Kaori is badass. 'Nuff said. After Akira going missing, and the rest of her family dead, she went crazy but stayed strong.

Megumi is bleh. And so is Sunako. I realize she had a missing past, but if you realize it, she's just being selfish... Seishin is grr...I can't stand him.

This is a great series. Especially, when you feel a bond with each character. That's what makes this series so epic. xD

Oozaki is just awesome albeit a bit heartless... >.<

If they were just living dead not killing humans, I'd feel sympathy for them. But they are killing people and tearing families apart. Them doing that is much worse than the avenging by the humans.

Vampire logic is flawed anyways because what happens when a whole community turns to Vampires and they have no more blood to suck?
