| Definitely the best episode so far. Funny and sad. Simply beautiful. |
| This episode was insanely sad when he's so high up but he can't be saved because he has no voice :( Oh, and I loveddd Mai in this episode; for obvious reasons. |
 |
| :( it was so sad... |

 |
| Kid froze to death alone, huh? Tough way to go. Kind of like that story about the match girl. |
 |
| Awww this was a very beautiful episode! Love the ending. |
| great arc...maybe the best so far :) poor kenji at least he found his peace 5/5 |

| This one was emotional... poor boy... I shed tears at the end of it... T_T |
| Touching episode. Though I thought it was kinda dumb that when Kenji ran away after Lin yelled at him, nobody cared to follow him. -_- Also, I'm starting to believe that Monk has a thing for Mai. |
| Freezing to death, eh? Damn, what a way to go, poor kid. Mai was ultra cute. |
| Aw what a sad way to die for that kid... :( Overall, perfect episode, was very touching! :D |
 |
| How the hell did Kenji manage to climb all the way up i wonder lol! Love the ending and the ending song. Naru doesn't seem to be at the slighest jealous when Mai was all sticking to Rin. o.O |

These sad christmas themes always get to me ._. milkteh said: How the hell did Kenji manage to climb all the way up i wonder lol! O I was a bit speculating on that too, but there was part of the construction site that broke apart. He probably climbed his way up through that 'til he was at the top and that's when it fell apart. |
| What I loved about this episode was that even though Mai was possessed she didn't fall prey to any embarrassing moments. Everyone admitted it was kind of funny, cute and weird but it wasn't like how Masako pawed at Naru when she was possessed in episode eleven. I think they kept the innocence of the little boy visible in Mai's character. I liked the mystery in this one, too, and how the team figured it out, although I certainly didn't expect to find the boy all the way up there. It was sad but I liked the closure in the end. |
 |
| Kenji-kun... Gahhh ;___; He could see the priest looking for him, but couldn't ask for help... Jesus christ, this episode really broke my heart... |
 (THIS WAY FOREVER) |
| The story turned out to be even sadder than it looked to be in the first episode. At least if took only two episodes, I wouldn't like it to be any longer. Poor Lin-san :D Cenedess said: Also, Monk gained so many points xP Yep :D Btw: WTF, I'm watching shoujo, I never thought of Ghost Hunt this way(tho Mai isn't the ordinary MC, and if I think of it there indeed is much romance in the air). |
  |
| A really nice xmas story! Nice episode lets see what's next! |
 |
| Cute yet very sad. I wasn't expecting something like this from this series. |

| Sweet ending to the arc. This has to be one of my favorites. Poor kid, waiting for his father to come... |

| This episode made me cry so much. (Ｔ＿Ｔ) |
 |
| That was short, but sweet. Even though there wasn't that much of a horror factor, it was pretty creepy at times. If the next few arcs could be at this level, I'd bump it up to a solid 7. |
| Sooooooooooooooooo........... Ummmmmmmmmm............ They just gonna leave his corpse up there indefinitely?? |
| Very touching episode, but something bothered me. First of all when he saw those guys down below looking for him, he could have dropped his jacket, shoe, or any other clothing to catch their attention. Second, wouldn't his corpse give out a really bad smell? |
| this is like my 3rd time watching this show and i stilll cry when i watch this episode |
 |
| omg so sad that he kept waiting for his dad everyday :( even when he was cold |
aLooser said: Sooooooooooooooooo........... Ummmmmmmmmm............ They just gonna leave his corpse up there indefinitely?? I was thinking the same thing! At first I was crying because it's such a sad story, but for the love of humanity, SOMEONE RETRIEVE THE CORPSE AND PUT IT TO REST! |
 |
| The feels were felt ;_; One thing that bugs me is why Kenji didn't just throw his shoe down or jacket so they would figure out that he was hiding up there? I'm mean I know he's just a kid which might be why he didn't think of that but still :/ |
 |
| This ain't scary... this.. his corspe is... Kenji.... (TAT)/ So touching.. the story is so bitter sweet.. what do they plan for next ? |

| thats such a sad way to die… especially for a child. and it make it even worse, his skull was still there. anyway, this arc was really entertaining, but I'm craving another arc like the doll one 7.5/10 for this case |
 |
| This is my favorite episode so far. I felt so bad for Kenji. I just wanted to hug and comfort him. Lin-san is probably my favorite character. Although Monk always gets me laughing. It's funny how this series can first make me laugh and in five seconds I'm holding tears. This has been a good surprise. |
| "Oh, I wasn't trying to be funny.. I would've put a 'Haha' at the end of it." |
| That was sad, really sad. If the thing hadn't collapsed, he'd have come back. I guess Lin got kinda attached to him towards the end. |
 "No matter how far you travel, you can never get away from yourself." -- Murakami Haruki |
| Lin finaly snapped, they should see this comming, making fun at his extent. Not only Naru is proud here. Actualy, the whole bunch have their sore points, but they work together well. And I'm glad there are good male characters present, which is rare. Damn, this can make me cry. It's more sad, than if the father had abandoned him, but turns out he had died and would never come. |
Hell is empty and all the devils are here. |
| Undoubtedly the Best Episode so far. Poor Kenji I felt so sad for him. T T |
 |
| Woah, that kid was an hardcore hide'n seek player... The Chrismas atmosphere was well done. Too bad I never watch those king of episode during Chrismas. |
| «Time is passing so quickly. Right now, I feel like complaining to Einstein. Whether time is slow or fast depends on perception. Relativity theory is so romantic. And so sad.» - Kurisu Makise a.k.a. The Zombie |
| I'm pretty sure they took his remains down, they just didn't show it onscreen for some reason. Depressing way to die, especially since he was just a kid :( |
|
| That poor Kinji-kun kid. I wonder why his father dropped him off like that. Did he really intend to return for him some day? Or was he just a deadbeat asshole?? |
 |
on 
| On rewatching this arc I realized how many times they showed those statues...what seemed like pretty filler shots of the church was actually really sad foreshadowing :( |
 |
| Lin must've had a rough childhood of his own or lost a child way too soon to act that way towards Kenji. The way he turned back towards the church and imagined how cold and lonely the kid was up there up until his last moments must've been tough for him. The ending was really sad and it took my all to not tear up but at least he's with his dad now. |
 |
| ok it's kind of ridiculous that nobody noticed a child's corpse in the front of the church for 30 years, but it did the sad thing pretty well so whatever. heartbreaking to realize that he slowly froze to death all alone. I would have found the ending with his dad sadder if they had made the dad seem like a normal person lmao |
 |
| This story was so sad. |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
| An overall more lighthearted case than usual, but much more fitting with the rest of the show than whatever episode 11 was. |
| man that was just beautiful. RIP Kenji |
