Dammit Yukio, you let yourself get influenced by your grandfather and now this! He has even gone full blown demon now. Let's see where this'll go. |

Lulexiaa said: Is it me or was the art REALLY terrible this episode? O___O It wasn't you. The art had quite a few horrible moments. I don't know this whole thing came too fast. The whole plot feels rushed. The developments didn't have enough time to pick our interest. That grandpa took authority from one moment to the other and in an extreme short time he already started the finale of his plans. |

Hah, it was expected that old man had some fishy plans, didn't think he'd try to kill Rin though. レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |

What the fuck is pretty much all I can muster. I really thought it would turn into brother vs. brother but honestly, I think it turned into something a little more stupid and I hate the people that deserve to fucking die DON'T FUCKING DIE. Yukio is a fucking moron, Rin really didn't know any better, and the grandfather deserves to have his face put through a deli slicer and feed his body to Satan. Is it bad that I'm rooting for Satan now because of this shit? |

I thought this ep was terrible, I was hoping they would leave the ending a bit open so that they could always carry it on if it ever rose in popularity but no. Quality's dipped big time, already ruining the characters and the show :( |

That's it, this anime ended at episode 15, such a shame. |

Wow, we've officially hit the wall today. This was one of the greatest trainwrecks I've ever seen in anime history, the plot suddenly stopped making any sense and everything was rushed like there's no tomorrow. I'm totally dumbfounded by this episode, it's just as if the production team planned a 52 episodes series and the producers suddenly cancelled the second season to make it 25 episodes less than one month until the last episode was produced and all the scriptwriters had been forced to rush an ending out of nowhere (and without having build up anything ressembling a plot up to episode 20). For now, the series is like : an introduction consisting of two (excellent) episodes, new background and new characters appearing in the following 3/4 episodes, 10 episodes of filler, 3/4 episodes of semi-development without anything from the main plot being revealed and then everything is thrown without explanation and planning on episodes 20 and 21, then the episode 22 changes everything, not once but twice in the same episode. It's just ridiculous. And what the heck with the Mononoke opening boar scene being reused almost word for word and shot for shot out of context ? That was extremely strange to say the least. |

People complaining about Yukio changing all of a sudden aren't making sense. This ENTIRE series we've seen that Yukio has had a SEVERE inferiority complex, all the stupid shit he's done is the consequence of that. Someone lying to him promising him power and the ability to protect Rin is EXACTLY something he would fall for... But oh well HATERS GONNA HATE |

I may well be alone, but I'm favouring Yukio at the moment; being the non-fighter, smart and trused by all makes for a genuien underdog, it's a change from the usual - typical, impressionable teen turned action hero in an instance. Plus I like the aniti-villian/anti-hero argument that's now present (or could have arised). Also, I liked seeing Yukio showing some naivity; it's about time he acted his age. |

Yeah, the boar-god was definately straight outta Princess Mononoke. I felt sorry for him, but clearly Yukio did not. Of course, he couldn't hear the boar's words ... or could he? By that time he seemed to have already mutated claws, so maybe he could hear them after all. Does the Evil Masked Pope remind anyone else of Joey Rats, our current Evil Pope? It could just be me... GOD Yukio looked so badass with Satan's flames reflecting off of his eyeglasses, and the horns coming off his head. I can't believe there's still 3 episodes left, this felt more like a penultimate episode. I predict a huge conclusion coming up that'll take at least 2 or 3 eps to complete, probably with Rin returning to life and the crew diving into Hell ... I mean Gehenna to save the world from Evil Pope and his Hell Bomb. AAA does need a serious ass-kicking, and Shura's just the girl to do it. She needs to stop calling him bald, though, or cut his hair off herself. The guy's got like 4 feet of hair! Episode kicked ass, I'm really enjoying the anime-original stuff :) 5/5 |

You people should read the manga.. I've started reading it and its a lot better... The anime is still good... but the last few episodes are so rushed its like holy shit. I still like Yukio sure he was an idiot but maybe this will be like a big slap in the face and he'll so something about it. |
