| Yukio's not going to die. The creator's inspiration for this series were the Grimm Brothers (was the Brothers Grimm). Although Yukio is a supporting role, I'm confident that they're not going to kill him off because that would change the premise of the series too much. I could write more, but I guess this isn't the area for speculation. I liked the episode. I'm attached to the characters enough that I don't mind a filler episode once in a while. The part where they send the cake to Mephisto made me laugh, as did the awkward exchange between Izumo and Shima,Paku (I really do think she just had something in her eye... not that they were going to kiss.) I'd always wondered how the whole "son of an exorcist is the biological son of Satan" ordeal worked out, and hopefully this series will explore that a bit more (the adoptive parents... how he hid it for so long... etcetera). I'm hoping they get a second season, although I wish they wouldn't have released it so prematurely. The manga won't be done for a while, will it? I like that it's going off in its own direction... that doesn't bother me. Although it would shut the people up who are complaining that this is a "filler arc" and that they couldn't end it in a different way. So yeah... I'd just like to see the majority of people happy, and I hope they're able to cover a broad section of the manga content in an upcoming season (because they're clearly going in a different direction now.) |

RyuKirin said: Wow, I missed that but must be a warning or promotion towards being aware that season 2 of Working!! is coming.Kyzix said: Haha, yep I lol'ed once I saw this xDHa, the restaurant Paku and Kamiki go to is Magnaria as in Wagnaria from Working!! |
| LOL when did this became a slice of life?? |
 |
| I wish my birthday was that fun !! |
 |
| Why would they have a random filler episode so late in the series...? Considering there are only 6 episodes left, shouldn't they be worried about getting through the story? I guess the title, "A Day When Nothing Happens" suited the episode well. Don't get me wrong though, I enjoyed the episode. It just seems like it'd be better as an earlier episode. |
 |
| Ah, despite the fact that this was a filler it's probably my favorite episode from the series. And considering how other anime like this go, it'll probably be filler until the last one or two episodes where it leaves us with some huge cliffhanger. But then again, it's already deviated from the manga to the point where it'd be awkward to try and get back on track with the most recent chapters. |
 |
| I actually thought the episode was pretty amusing and was a good 'calm before the storm.' With only 5 or 6 episodes left this is probably the last chance the crew will have to sit down together and be kids before the shit hits the proverbial fan ... which it no doubt did in the cliffhanger. The monastary's been attacked, o noes! Best part of the episode was Mephisto's reaction to the cake. "A cake celebrating the birth of God ... for a demon?" *takes a bite* "FANTASTIC!!!(in rainbow!)" This seemed like a mellow weekend for both this and Sacred 7 ... hopefully there'll be more action in both next week. At least Blade delivered the fighting, as always. |
| I make better looking cake than Rin. |
 |
| It was more or less a filler, but it was still nice, and it still had character development. Konekomaru still being a bit afraid or weird near Rin, but less so later. They have less problems working together now, Bon is the leader. Rin does not rely on his blue flames for everything (he can make cake without..), we saw a bit of Yukoi with his experiments.. It could have been more for sure, but it was not a filler in the way of having nothing to do with rest of the anime, they will certainly remember that party, and maybe it will even be important, like Konekomaru remembering that Rin thanked him (if they do a scence like when he had to trust Rin and jump again). Often such small details play a important role later, when people who skipped the supposed filler complain that theres no way they would never trust each other or whatever because they where not really friends or something, when they actually had a week long party in the filler. I don't think it's going to be that extreme here, but i often wonder why every episode that does not at least contain one major plot twist is automatically a filler. Especially if they already deviated from the manga. |
| It was a interesting episode. I thought Yukio knows their mother's name. i am very curious about her. I hope the next episode will be better. |
| Yeah i don't mind the filler with this show, i take it over the current Naruto filler any day! I think they need more of Blackie hanging with Rin moments since he is such a cool familiar. My fave eps would have to be the Blackie eps by far (broke my heart when he broke down in tears). |
| THIS IS THE BEST ANIME EVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR. Anyone who disagrees need to hang himself! AND BTW, Konekomaru is the best anime character of allllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll time! He's just the definition of awesomeness! >_____________________< |

| Don't read the manga but it was too obvious it was a filler which means it failed. :/ |
Sartory said: Shima X Paku was epic. However, not to be outdone, Mephisto's "Fantastic!" was FABULOUS~ Shima x Paku 4EVER!!!!!!! Lol when Mephisto gets a cake xD WTF is up with Rin flying in the beginning!? And Even Yukio did not think the Christmas cake was strange xD prismheart said: Rin turned into a rocket... my favorite part. This. |

| Sigh... damn filler. I mean, just three episodes ago, it was all epic anime is epic. Plot = GOOD. |
| Anyone know the song that was played when Yukio started talking about their birthdays?? |
 |
| Yeah it was mostly filler, but I think it worked well as an endpoint to the last arc (Konekomaru trusts Rin again, Rin has reintegrated into the group) and as a break before the next arc (Yukio's affliction, return of Neuhaus). If nothing else, at least it was entertaining (for me at least). -Rocket Rin (and Takara's non-reaction) -Yukio being oblivious to birthday cakes with Rin -Izumo's imagination running wild (Paku x Shima OTP) -Heartwarming little moment between Yukio and Shiemi at the end |
| Ha-cha! |
SerenityB3128 said: Same here. My score went from 9 to 8 because of the utterly pointless changes.But I'm stiiiiill not over the fact that they've changed the whole story. And this episode was a filler amongst fillers, which is saying something. The only saving grace was Mephisto and his 5 seconds of screen time, because eveninthose 5 seconds he manages to be simply FANTASTIC... |
| ったく、嫌な世の中だよ。 |
| two filters in a row?? thats a such a downer... anyways I think Yukio was putting his blood in holy water for his testing, which killed his blood in the last test tube. But I don't know what's happening here, we haven't covered it in the manga yet! *starts crying* plus I think they will end the season at the start of the Impure King I reacon >.< |
No matter how many breaths that you took, you still couldn't breath. |
th3_black_sun said: Oh God what did you use to make those by all means but a nice effort nonetheless. I am sorry, I was at work and had some life things to do. So I present you the crappy 128 color version one in the spoilerI don't think they can wrap this up in seven episodes, I think there will be a second season, or it will end suddenly like the death of Rin :( or something. i made 2 rin rocked gifs XD http://i55.tinypic.com/24qtpip.gif and a avatar just for fun.  |
| Nice light-hearted episode this time around. Seeing them all preparing for the birthday party while trying to hide it from Izumo was pretty hilarious to watch. Besides that it looks like Satan's powers are awaking in Yukio. And their monastry got attacked as well! |
 |
| Izumo centered episode = win. It was a filler but It was a good one unlike some anime >.>*Naruto* |
 |
| anyone here know what is the insert song for this ep when Shiemi and Yukio was talking about the past? |
| a little of filler, i worry for yukio, |
 |
| Enormous fail. Like the whole show, by the way. |
| that was actually a pretty good filler lulz, i loled so hard at the xmas cake and then being sent to mephisto which caused him to say FANTASTIC X3 looks like yukio's demon powers are awakening and that eyepatch sensei's gonna be the center of the next arc =I |
| That ep was very pleasant - one thing I liked is the fact it featured a lot of Izumo; I like her. Shiemi's "Thankyou for being born" statement sounded like the worst pick up line ever. |
 |
| SUPER FUN EPISODE, especially the birthday cake/xmas cake, "FANTASTIC" & Paku/Shima-romance lol; But I can feel the-soon-angst re: Yukio. You know the feeling of excessive happiness, then a sudden angst and gloom next episodes? /youcanfeeltheintensityworkingonit IMO |

TAT Please someone tell me the title of that insert song. Thanks! :) |
 |
| Ao no Exorcist has been improving a lot in the last 7 or 8 episodes. Even this filler is better than most development episodes of the first half-season. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| Meh.... the episode was just okay for me. :P I'm still wondering who the kid with the pink bunny puppet is. O3o |
Iwoto said: First of all you should all go to the official web site of this anime and try a translator like in Chrome to translate that page then perhaps there may be a part that tells of all the OST songs. Second sadly for me and all of you, that song will be most likely be in the OST 2 CD so it will take a while but then again I am not so sure what is out in the OSTs, if the first one is out then this one should come out too soon. |
| I like this episode even if it was a filler. It gave little hints of things that were confusing with still leaving them unexplained! (Like Yukio's arm problem, and the origins of Yukio and Rin's birth). It's taking baby steps. I want next week to come already! D: From the preview it looks action packed and it can go anywhere. I have this feeling that Yukio won't be talking much about his arm until someone rips his shirt off his skin. >.>; |

kikuchimera said: anyone here know what is the insert song for this ep when Shiemi and Yukio was talking about the past? From first OST, "Assiah Fantasia First Movement - Call me later" by Mika Kobayashi. |
 |
| Even though this episode was a filler, it was incredibly adorable. I find myself shipping Yukio and Shiemi more now. <333333 But with Yukio's arm, the birth origins of these two and the attack on the monastary, one can only wait until next week to find out what happens. ;~; |
| Not bad episode i guess. Nothing much happened but it was pretty enjoyable. So i wonder what;ll happen to Yukio now. Aldo damn gg or including that Bushiroad commercial at the end, it's killing me. <3 |

| Heh, all I've seen is the title, "An Ordinary Day", and I can only think of two possibilities: 1. Shitty filler. 2. Most definitely NOT an ordinary day. I WAS WRONG! It was epic filler! Yumekichi11 said: Were they always that big...? :3 |

| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
wheresthehandle said: Yeah well that assembly screwed up but Izumo's breast change size or she just grew more. Either they look more like the size of Shiemi and before it was not the case at all.Yumekichi11 said: Were they always that big...? :3 |
| Couldn't have chosen a better week to show this :) |
| This was a really fun and heartwarming episode. Even for a filler. I liked the fact that everybody had screentime and were in character <3 I already gave up on them following the manga now, so I might as well enjoy the ride. |
| Filler again. How have they deviated from the manga so far? (surely nothing in this random episode) |
