That girl came to visit Dalian again and bringing fake beard. lol~ so cute!

She prefers a bear doll instead of dangerous book...!!

The girl's jealousy is scary enough to kill a guy (Kakki?) just because she saw him with other girls, with that dangerous book. Fortunately he got revived by Huey and others after she gave it to Huey.

So I heard there will be 12 eps. for this anime.

More yangire women, Dalian is so cute reading next to the bear doll. I'm glad that man got revived he didn't deserve the nice boat just for talking casually to other women. Camilla in a beard is full of lolz.

funny ep. can't believe camilla started with a paper clip from huey and ended with the bear that dalian thought was the most cutest in that auction book =p. had my suspicions that camilla was planning on that when i heard about the phantom book she bought. that girl over thinks armand's actions when he's just having a normal chat with a girl or helping a girl up. good thing he got revived but funny how he rebounded by asking camilla out and saying big breasts are better rofl.

Bleh... the episode was fun by itself, but when linked to the last one (where Fionna tragically died) it makes you wonder why the hell didn't they use the underworld book back then... I'm not dropping the series yet, but this was really disappointing.

... Maybe there were more conditions, but left unexplained is just as bad.

Actually, she started a paper clip from huey and ended with a bunch of oranges... the bear was exchanged for the book.

Well, guess in the end she obtained Dalian's friendship, that's probably worth more than a huge fortune, maybe Camile isn't as foolish as they think.

Huey did not look very surprised when that guy's hand shot a bunch of flammable veins at Dalian and Camile.
Woah, Lianna is one envious woman. Although I don't think she deserved being tricked like that.
No Flam this episode either. ):

I believe it was already explained that they prevented her death once when they were at her mansion. Therefore, her life could not be prolonged again.

First half was kind of meh, but at least the ending was cute. Second part was really trollish. I was really shocked that they just let the poor man die, but they revived him in the end, so all's good.

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

That is indeed correct, you can't be revived twice through a "Phantom Book"

that was an entertaining double episode lawl the first part was kinda meh though, the quest to barter for a teddy bear ._.
this anime has a lot of uhh yandere women .__.; Armand x Camilla might actually make a decent pair (somewhat) but i cant believe Lianna believed Armand's death when his friends are all standing there watching his death LOL
....that book.....is dangerous for all guys if the book only believes what women feel LOL

I would think that saving her life and reviving her are different things, but seems like that's not the case. To me it's not that clear, I guess I'm stupid.

I worried that Camilla should be involved in an incident judging from the serious conversation between Dalian and Hugh. But nothing happened at all.
Although Dalian usually has a pale complexion, Camilla found Dalian's face brightened up with joy at the end of her gaze, and Camilla's smiling face had Hugh smile. The happiness infects, probably, even to you.

Well, the oriental folktale mentioned in the episode is called "Warashibe Chouja (Straw Millionaire)". Since it is a popular Japanese folktale, you will be able to find English translations somewhere.

By the way, "gate opening ceremony" wasn't appeared in this episode. Is this often the case?

Funny. I heard the same quote in Angel Beats.

I laugh when Camilla put fake moustache in Dalian. It suits her! lol

Damn that was one jeakous woman! Her Jealousy rate is over the top.
I don't think he deserves it thought. He really loves her and he just had
a normal conversation with other women. It had me thinking that I should
be very careful not to date a over jealous girl as it could be very troublesome.

I though they let him die, and I was like, "WTF!?"
Until Huey mention of reviving him and he really came back to life.

Glad to know he's alive again as he can make a good comic-relief in the series.

Just as a quick note, although they credited Mother Hecate with the revenge magick the first book was focusing on the hapless Armand, She was also deeply involved with the Eleusinian Mysteries--the subject of the book by which Armand was brought back to life.

I suspect the book of Twilight might not have as much to do with the current teen vampire flick as it will with either the Celtic twilight of the otherworld, or Norse Ragnarok.
Please don't feed the trolls!

Camilla is awesome and she's just so sweet.

Whenever Armand appears, you can expect some idiotic but funny stuff to happen. Damn that Lianna sure does get jealous easy huh. Helping someone get up >.>? And she ends up burning the guy she loves because he talked to their maid. Haha

This was a good episode.

Yeah, there is no overarching plot ... the protagonists just kinda wander around, meet interesting people, find a book, and someone dies. Maybe at some point Huey reaches into Dalian's DFC and pulls out a book. Then next week they repeat it all again.

I was raging at the characters for letting the poor guy die ... even though they brought him back once the crazy bitch left, he didn't deserve to be tortured by thorns and then burned to death. Death by fire is one of the most painful ways to go, even if you wind up perfectly restored and sitting on a couch within five minutes. It also bothered me that the crazy bitch was in no way punished for her actions; they didn't even take her Phantom Book away, she gave it willingly.

Are Japanese women known for being this psychotically jealous? I see the trope exploited a lot in 'comedy' too, and it aggravates me just as much. Wanting to kill/beat up your lover because he's *talking* to another girl? Those are some serious fuckin' issues ...

Aw Camilla is a sweet girl, going to such lengths to acquire a teddy bear for Dalian.

I was shocked when they allowed Armand to die. The girl must be blinded by jealousy, I mean doesn't she get suspicious when they gave him up so easily?

OK, the Book of Equivalent Exchange episode was rather benign. And the Book of Relationship episode continued the trend of beautiful, yet deadly women created through Phantom Books. Overall, a rather weak episode. I have a feeling some would even call these episodes filler given how little progress was actually made.

Same reaction here, those three were not even shocked when he burned to a crisp right in front of them. O_o

...and then they revived him just like that! The Elric brothers must be jealous of their resurrection "alchemy". LOL

This episode was quite funny but at the same time serious. Amogn the funny thigns is the following,

Dalian with a mustache! :D I laughed quite well indeed. Although she did not like it too much I did.

The other thing I loved is Camilla in the following,

her blush there was cute but she was much more cuter in that magician's costume. So we meet Armand again with a female problem in regards to Lianna Scholes.

I have in inquired into the R&D to bring this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hecate
Hecate exists however the book of Resurrection is nowhere to be found so I find that book questionable. Lianna is a very possessive woman and jealous a lot. Hecate was very similar. Coincidence? Why of course when you have a magical tome of hers. You tend to become her. In thee end I am just happy Armand got brought back because that was totally unfair indeed.

BTW Image Stitches are done in the spoiler
Lianna and Camilla are nicely done there.

Dalian wearing that fake mustache was simply hilarious, that look of Dalian after Camilla did that was also golden.
The BGM when they were searching for Camilla was very good, it was a sort of a remixed version of the OP, but with some parts completely different.
The last part when Armand started talking about Camilla was also funny.
Maybe Dalian should start saying "No.", because only "Yes." is beginning to be boring and too predictable.

Wow, easily one of the best episodes of the show. It's better at being a comedy than a mystery show now that I think about it. They let go of the Fullmetal Alchemist book relatively easily, but that's my only problem with it. Although I must have made some weird faces when they let Armand burn to death. "Even death can't cure idiocy". 4/5.
