| This was an extremely good arc... Pretty sad that was the end of it. =s Oh and... KiriharaxHei<3 all aboard my friends. |
 |
| Kirihara is very bold to ask something like that. XD It sucks that the boss died but at least they got away. Overall, this was a great arc. It reminds of an episode from Samurai Champloo. |

| A really nice episode. I must say that I'm happy to see them escaped. The boss dieing was obvious to happen. |
 |
| Wasn't expecting that ending. |
| thank God.. I really thought that doll is Hei's sister... I like that Sakurai.. hes funny and very kind... I usually hate it when theres romance with the side characters especially when the mains does't have but man Sakurai X that doll was very touching.. also... Kirihara X Kei!! yeah baby!! shes the best for him IMO.. Yin is like a sister figure while Amber is a treacherous bitch. |
 |
| This is my favorite two-episode arc so far (coming right before Yin's backstory) |
| was a decent arc almsot feel bad for the brother,almost |
 |
| Really cool episode! |
| ... |
| I just realized this but LOL at Hei's room number being 201. Like ... really? It had to be that number? Guess I was the only one who didn't like this arc. I couldn't sympathize with Kenji or his Aniki or whatever. Couldn't sympathize with the doll either. The ending was so-so. It's hard to believe they managed to get away safely. Also why doesn't Hei move already?! His face keeps getting seen in compromising situations. It makes me worry about him :-( Hope the next arc will be better. |
 |
| Wow, one of the best episodes for now. 5/5 |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| devo forthat gangsta guy. |
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy." |
| I reckon that Misaki knows that something is up with Li/Hei. I think she suspects him or will begin to suspect him in the coming episodes. |
| The afternoon has gently passed me by The evening spreads its sail against the sky Waiting for tomorrow Just another day God bid yesterday goodbye... |
| Hei is becoming more and more "human" |
 |
| Hei's changing for the better. Loved this episode. It's only getting better. |

| Bad 2 Episodes , i thought that it was unnecessary and pointless , they should have continued the interesting events. this is the weakest side story in the anime , felt like a waste of time . |
| I'm glad Kenji and his "girl" made it out alive. The ending was beautiful. While he's gone, Kenji did leave a small impact on Hei's life by slowly humanizing him and bringing closer with his neighbours, something he avoided doing probably because of his background/line of work. |
 |
| Well what do you know, a happy end to this one. |
 |
| gangster arc finally came to a conclusion. the ending wasn't that bad i guess because there was actually a message behind this story. find something to stake your life on to protect. |
 |
| Another great episode for DTB. It was a slower one, but we go to see some development from all angles, such as with the dolls, and specifically Hei. He actually went out of his way to help Kenji. Loved that Yin came up to check up on Hei, and that she's worried about him. She's starting to be independent! I might be reading a bit too much into it, but when Hei gets asked if he has anything he'd like to protect, the cut shows him walking towards Yin. So cute! I hope Kenji and his "doll" lived happily ever after!! Can't wait for the next episodes, they should be picking up! #HeiXYin |
| "The most painful lesson one can learn is letting go, but everything in this world is connected and nothing's truly ever gone. She will always be a part of me." -Eiri |
| Nice to see Kenji actually got away. Doubtful we will ever see him again. Funny little reunion for Hei and that Misaki. |
 |
| I really liked this episode. I hope the mob dude and the doll share a happy life! |
 |
on 
| It is the dumbest excuse I've ever heard - buying underwear for your friend's girlfriend?? Be real! The last part was cute. |
   |
| Wow, that doll turned super emotional right there O.o Wonder if Yin can become like that one day? |
  |
| Hmm, this storyline didn't pique my interest the way the previous ones did. The mall scene was funny tho. |

| Like the previous episode, a fine one and it was nice seeing Hei try his best to help out Kenji and the doll, and see Yin go to Hei out of her own accord but still feel like a lot of these developments don't really amount to anything so far given the pacing and development of the show so far. There's subtle development but the actual direction the show's going is pretty much nowhere and at a standstill and that's what makes this show to be average at best for me despite not necessarily being boring or painful to watch. At least it was a pretty heartwarming episode when just taking the episode into context and not the entire show so far, and it was nice seeing Hei bump into Misaki Kirihara again and have a little moment there, albeit a tad awkward since he was picking out female's underwear to purchase. |
| I didn't expect that ending. |

| I did not care for Sakurai "falling in love" with the doll. It's actually kinda creepy if you think about it, which is a shame because I do like Sakurai, I just wish the writers handled it a little better. It would've been enough if he just did it because it was the right thing to do. Personally, I like the Jack x Misaki ship but Hei x Misaki isn't bad either. |
| Seems like they're starting to rebel against the Syndicate and will soon betray them... |
| Still questioning Hei's remuneration. Kind of a filler arc, they already showed us that dolls can think and feel. The most important information would be Yin's words. I guess Hei cares more about people and that's why she said he's different? There are still so many questions. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| lol at Misaki seeing Hei at the mall |
 |
| The parallels between Kenji and Hei with their respective "dolls" is noted here. I'm more in awe that Kenji actually survived, since I fully expected him to die. These subplots usually don't have endings that go so swimmingly (outside of Kenji's brother/boss getting killed). |

| Yeah it was a rather good arc for this show, wonder how those dolls are created. |
