THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Holy manga deviations, Batman!

Having Kannuki bear the whole spotlight of the villain of this arc made everything look so simplistic, and the Headmaster have much less impact than what I got while reading the manga. I usually don't whine so much about manga-to-anime adaptations, I'm usually all for original endings, but I'm so scared that they'll end up ruining the whole thing -_- (Bad, Bad Tsubasa Chronicles experience) The preview for the next episode gave me even worse "We're going to change everything lololol" vibes.

Anyway, Shinrabanshou was awesome. It looked even freakier than what I could possibly imagine. Although Thobari-sensei's "attack" to shut Miharu down didn't have the same impact - just a slap, instead of a kick? o_O

Aizawa was so spoooky <3

I didn't read the manga but it certainly is getting more and more interesting.
Aizawa is a sicko >< hes awesomely ruthless.
And that slap across Miharu's looked random, I would have thought the initial tackle would have been more effective?

As always, Aizawa is awesome, and Thobari is a damned moron. -sigh- Currently, he deserves every bit of pain he's feeling from Miharu "joining" Kairoushuu.

Oh, and I still dislike Fuuma, just for ever being born.

They left out Kouichi brushing the feathers out of his hair. Damn them, that was so hot.

WAIT, I just saw the preview. Are they not going to animate the thing with Kouichi and Shijima? Or was the 1 second screen of Kouichi showing that was going to happen?

Blargh.

I think they will. I mean, it's a huge plot device, they can't just... wipe it away. I hope they don't.

Wow! This was such a great episode! So much was revealed that was so unexpected! I loved the ending part where Miharu covered his ears right in front of Kumohira! The only thing that came to mind for me at that moment was "what a DISS!".

Miharu covering his ears was one of the best parts. The other was of course Aizawa!!! Holy crap, this guy is on my list as second best right behind Yukimi. I knew he had a secret agenda, but I wasn't expecting immortality. Wow. Good overall episode. I understand that it's not good for the Manga readers since it deviates, according to them. That would piss me off too.

maybe him asking was just a part of the behind-the-scenes (>,<)

anyways... aizawa FTW! he reminded me of 'V for Vendetta'
and the Shinrabanshou dominating miharu part was... freaky x3

Pretty good episode *nod*

Oh my goodness, Aizawa is immortal? O.o I didn't saw that one coming... I really thought he was done for good. One of the best parts, indeed, very creepy.

I love Shijima. She knows something, that's for sure. I'm yet to see what would be her role in the future

Miharu covering his ears was awsome

aizawa immortal is even better. it seems that there is a connection between the two silver haired characters. miharu was great like usual and thobari sensei just needs to die. also i feel as if the fuuma clan may actually be bad to some extent.

And here I thought Kouichi's "death" would knock some sense into him. Well, there goes that hope... As for Fuuma, that dude's always controlling everything. I don't know that he's any better than Kairoushuu's leader...

I was like, "Woah. That was so badass!"

After this episode, I have a newfound respect for Miharu and a newfound attraction to Aizawa.

So cute how Miharu just covered his ears while Thobari tried to preach to him, lol. I tend to do that, too.

Preview looks cute! Miharu wearing Yoite's scarf~. :D

I jumped twice while watching this episode - at Shiranbanshou and Kouichi XD
Both of them freaked me out for a second or two! Loved them nonetheless<3

I love Miharu, but I'm becoming fonder and fonder of Kouichi ;D Yay for immortality~ *was spoiled on LJ beforehand*

hmm...I was kind of disappointed in this episode, I guess the previous one made me expect too much of this one : I was expecting more action, more tragedies etc hehe ^^
Revelations were made, and a new light was set on Shijima and Aizawa (so glad the dude turns out immortal, even it makes him look a bit creepy ^^; )

What I didn't like was the usual anime-occasional-incoherence popping here and there : all these ninjas are super strong, Tobari sensei used fire magic once, and none of them can make a hole in a wooden door??? And it didn't even look thick at all ! >__<; I found that a stupid pretext to let them captive...I mean, they could have found a better excuse than that -__-; anyway I'm just whining

Miharu covering up his ears was touching, a bit sad : he's clearly showing he's not "carefree" or cold; it's precisely because Tobari sensei's words could have hurt him that he decided to do it, and to show he doesn't want to listen to him T_T
I think Toari-sensei should just give up and tell everything that happened in the past : he can't expect people to follow his ideas if he doesn't let them know the foundation behind that jeez -___-;

Loved this episode. Things are just getting better and bett in this show!!

o.O Didn't see that one coming. And also, am I the only one who thinks that Aizawa and that long-haired girl (the one who gave Miharu the book) are maybe somehow related or something? When Aizawa went craze on the peole it kind-of reminded me of her in an earlier episode...

Yeah, the slap was akward, but hey, it worked, right? A whole bunch more, but what most struk me was the end of the episode. With how Mihary covered his ears at what Thobari said... can't think of anything to describe it. It just sticks in my head - there's just something about it.

I think Miharu isn't pulling an act, tho. I had my doubts before, like "He's going to grant Yoite's wish, then leave" or something along the lies of that. But now I really think he has actually joined Kairoushuu.
Awesome episode. Can't wait to see the next.

This episode is the greatest ep of all. XD.
I think maybe only this one episode is better than the comic.

miharu awaken and kouichi is better in the anime rather in the comic.

It's like "screw everyone but Yoite!". UGH!
Also what's with the yaoi undertones? That shit better be toned down in the remaining episodes

Aizawa was badass, i didn't guess that he was immortal, but now thats two secrets out the way (like that women[Oda?] was mentioning.) now all thats left is Tobari. Also as much as they look alike i doubt that girl is Aizawa's sister, i think they have just been traveling for a long time together due to their immorality.

Anyway, Kouichi is a girl? Huh? The headmaster said "are you her?" to him when he saved him.

I actually kinda like the Miharu/Yoite relashionship. Mainly because I like Yoite, miharu is still an annoying brat though, except when he's being a little devil.

Aizawa was awesome, I still don't understand what the director told him when he he came to rescue him..that thing about the girl or whatever.
Tobari better back off; At first he was my favorite then he started getting all kinds of annoying.

4/5.

Hmm, my theory of using them for something to be able to make the Daya was right, though I was thinking that it will happen in the rooms. I hate when I predict stuff like this, it's like self spoiling.
Anyways just wanted to write that here, about this episode.. well it was awesome, except for the slap, that was kinda... umm weak. idk the following is a spoiler? anyways I'll tag it just to be on the safe side

Hmm, anyways those are my thoughts of it.

Kouichi Aizawa was very surprising in this episode ! Sure, it was strange That he hypnotizes and kills mens Easily, but learn that he's immortal change the situation. His other face more creepy makes it all the more interesting...
