| Victorique is so pretty when she runs. Glitteryyyyy~ |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
-Lunacie said: AmberFebruary said: -Lunacie said: Ugh, the reasoning behind some of the culprits is too narrow, and I hate how Victorica can just suddenly get so many answers without any real investigation and only a little deduction. I prefer mysteries that lead up to the solution and build on suspects and evidence, not just a detective blowing on a pipe and suddenly knowing all the exact specifics. oh you may be watching a different episode because nothing has been solved yet, the METHOD OF THE CRIME has been explained but nothing has been answered yet, and the solution to those methods has been deducted by Victorica due to EVIDENCES GOT FROM GLAVIEL'S INVESTIGATIONS, EVIDENCES INCLUDES PHYSICAL OBJECTS OR THINGS USE FOR THE CRIME, TESTAMENTS FROM WITNESSES AND ANY OTHER INFORMATION OR BACKGROUND REGARDING TO THOSE INVOLVE IN THE CRIME. BUT ALL VICTORICA HAVE DEDUCTED ARE JUST THE METHODS AND ARE THE CULPRIT OR POSSIBLE CULPRIT, NOTHING HAS BEEN MADE CERTAIN YET DUE TO THE FACT THAT WE DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE MOTIVE AND THE IDENTITY OR CHARACTER BIO OF THE MURDERER AND THE VICTIM. haven't you noticed, Kujo is always asking the question "WHY WOULD SHE DO THAT? twice, one in each case but is interrupted because the answer is not yet to be revealed this episode. IT'S THE SAME WITH THE CASE IN EPISODE 1 w/c only had been made clear in episode 3. TYPING IN ALL CAPS DOESN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN YOUR POINT. I understand without it, so stop. -__- Anywayyy, I never said anything was solved, and most of my post was directed towards the first part of the show involving the biker and also towards the previous cases. I think what -Lunacie was getting at was her way of explaining things. For me it's the same, she sort of always explains things in a "nothing but the truth" way. Like "It has to be this no matter what and I am absolutely correct". I mean sure her explanations make sense, but it does not satisfy me as a viewer because there is still room for error. For instance, lets take a look at the "corner of the eye" example. As an explanation sure it is valid, but how can one be 100% certain that that is exactly what it was and not something else? The human mind is complex and not always predictable, and to just use the "corner of the eye" as an explanation seems rather..well..bullshit. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, for I am not an expert in the field of psychology. |

| This episode sometimes made me feel I was watching something like CSI. |
Apologies, I just can't avoid to rant. |

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, for I am not an expert in the field of psychology. that was probably the one part that seems VERY unrealistic, but than again, if things are realistic, than it gets boring, (probably half the reason why were watching anime, lol) btw every single time i see her with the blowpipe, i always start imagining one of the phoenix wright songs, the "thinking" one specifically, lol |

| All these cases are just too easy. I'm not boasting myself but even I can solve the cases in this series. It just Kujou and Grevil that are too stupid to not figure out the crimes. I expected this series will be more Vic's psychological thinking against all these cases, some twists in the facts and reasoning but so far this series had let me down =( |
 |
| I wish I had teachers like this :$ |
| I really like the teacher! She's great! |

| The case was kinda boring but Avril seemed really suspicious. |
lanachan said: Maxim's body scared the hell out of me. Especially since I was watching this in a wide-screen monitor .___. Sameeee! >.< SCREAMERS. GAH. Avril is so suspicious. XD The teacher is so bubbly and nice. :D I'm pretty sure the bike guy head chopped off had to do with the whole Maxim case. LOL I think its the missing corpse? IDK. And Avril must have a relation to this too. And gotta say, I love the ending theme. : ) Like the song, not the animation. |
| The scenes in which Grevil lose important parts of the explanation whenever he enters the elevator are the best! |
Snowical said: She really is the Golden Fairy.. *_*;; ''If you're a gentleman, maybe I'm a goddess.'' ''My greatest enemy is boredom, but my second greatest enemy is commotion. I see that though you drive away my greatest enemy, you are my second greatest enemy.'' I see that Victorique is intelligent as always, got to love that. Oh yes. Those were my favourite quotes from the episode. Also, angry Victorique! (Jealous, perhaps?) |

| I must say, tsunderes certainly start young. And I still love when she pulls out that pipe! It's adorable! |
| Somewhere, there is an unplugged toaster sitting on a Coleman stove. Does it feel lonely? |
| Pretty good |
 |
| I really hope that Avril is the killer just so that she disappears. I really don't want this anime to turn into a love triangle or a harem for Kujou, which I'm pretty sure it will if Avril is innocent and stays... |
 |
| This episode was good. I liked how somehow the little stories all come together as one, like Millie Marl, the guy that someone (maybe Avril?) and the golden fairy all seem to be related. The thing here is that some of the many things that are happening are OLD already, is not that it's not interesting, but it's just not new. I'm just really hoping that the whole anime is not going to be about stories I already know. |
| My reaction to the bike scene : Seriously, the way he hitted the wall was so goofy and his pose in the air, then he lost his head... It would be too easy if that transfered (lol, so cliche) student was the culprit. She's probably related to another case. But her ''I fell'' excused is bullshit. SHe could have said at least, I cutted my hand while cooking or something like that... Soooo, that Millie Mark was a yandere? Just kiddin' I guess it isn't the end of that case though. Mysterious Victorique... She's so mysterious, that softie tsundere loli. |

| Most excuses would have been better than "I fell" |
 |
| Wow, Victorique is amazing *-* Why that woman "kills" the motocycle driver? I hope to see a continuation of this case. |
icerain5645 said: Hmm. I don't really understand why the crypt is there in the first place...it seems very abnormal for a school to handle the funeral. Wasn't this a prestigious academy for the aristocracy? It's not like their parents couldn't afford to have the kid sent back to them, and have their own grand funeral. Maybe it's customary in the country they're in or something, but I wouldn't leave my child on a slab in a room full of random former students and faculty members. Wait, wealthy nobles would probably have their own family crypt, right? Why was there even a graveyard on the school grounds, anyway? Hahahah tbh this was the only thing that was niggling at me from this episode too. I guess I'll just have to think of it as a strange custom in that imaginary country, like you said... |

| Yes, Avril is obviously up to something, but what? Why did she need the book she found in the crypt? Vic still has the best lines though. |
| How come the head is still intact until crush when beheaded? Plothole? 3.2/5 |
 |
| I actually managed to solve that mystery with the motorcyclist :P Avril definitely seems suspicious so far. |
| I wonder what is that book about, I hope that Victorique isn't in danger. |
 |
| The mytery aspect is poorly again, this show is saved by it's characters and presentation. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| soo a "mystery anime" which only gives you the necessary hints AFTER the case is solved by the power of plot is consideres very good? |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| well if you have a blonde fetish you are in luck MC because everyone in this country has blonde hair either way I am hoping the mystery aspect of the show improves. Pretty discouraging so far but its just the beginning. I'm not really feeling the characters tbh. |
| This story is even more interesting. Grevil's answer at the end was very weird, instead of the elevator going down at the worst time, now he got to listen everything Victorique had to say. I thought he would make a joke again, talking to Kujo instead like he always does. "Gray wolf" does sound very interesting, I wonder if its meaning is more than just him disliking his little sister. The case itself is also interesting with that. Is that girl's hand decaying and that's why she had it covered? Or has she reincarnated somehow because she looks somewhat different now. Only 4 episodes in and it's already intriguing. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| -> Daydream about having a blonde girlfriend -> Saw a crime & almost get arrested -> A girl with a blonde hair transfer into his class -> The girl gets friendly with him -> Got involved on a new mystery That's Kazuya "The Black Reaper" for ya, everywhere he goes trouble will follow... But he's lucky, because he have a gothic detective at his side. |
| so far the culprits have been quite obvious though the methdos havent |
