I am loving Akise, he seems pretty damn awesome. This show definitely deserves its high rating, it is freaking amazing. I know, Akise is a Beast. Disappointed though on how shallow Yuki is. |
| Ok, this is getting out of hand. Are ALL the supporting characters supposed to be so much more likable than Yuki and Yuno? I swear... But yeah. Loving Akise. OP mentioned how he's like Accelerator, which now that I think about it may be why I like him so much. I really hope he sticks around for more than another episode or two, but judging by the average lifespan in this show I wouldn't be surprised... Also, I lol'd when Hinata called Yuno Yunocchi. All we needed was some widefaces... |
  |
| I don't know why would Yukiteru expose his secret so like that. He's too easy to manipulate. =,= I hope that Akise would bring spice to this series. |
razisgosu said: I agree with this but I remind also that this is no Slayers genre so I did not really think of it. I do admit though the Xellos's personality shines in Akise. That's 100% for sure.Can't believe you forgot that Ishida Akira is Xellos from slayers, that's one of his most prominent roles and also fits the characteristic of strong but rarely shows it. |
| Holy shit everyone in this show is a nutjob lol. Didn't expect there to be two diary owners. I wonder what Akise's diary is. |

Sakebi said: am I the only one who really disliked this episode [and the whole anime too~], and thought it felt stupid, bad directed and edited and seriously not surprising? No, I totally agree. The thing is really poorly written. I thought I'd give it a chance because of the AMAZING opening, but no. The dialog is unconvincing and ill-timed. Also, killing off a character immediately after we meet her isn't shocking or innovative, it's amateurish. If you want a death to mean something, the character should be remotely significant and not somebody who gets three minutes of screen time, if that. Beyond that, this anime lacks direction, and it seems like details are thrown in on a whim. Interesting premise though. |

(right now I remember yuki's question to hinata(or whatever was her name): "Why do you care about me so much?") let's leave aside yuki, who's become the lamest character ever made... the scene with the dogs surrounding the house - it felt like I was watching a kids' show... we see them all running towards windows and blocking them, and then "the dogs fled." much like Dora the Explorer... asking the viewers to help her and boots blocking the windows from the dogs... by us saying "left"/"right" (in israel dora teaches english ;p) and what about the shallow jokes? the pulling down of the skirt was really a joke for first graders. I think this series has a good potential, but it's poorly made. I don't know about the manga, but the anime is probably not that much off. love this comment<3 |
Wegenbarth said: helensan said: is there going to be something original in this anime? so far all characters are just copies of someone, ninth chick = Cirucci Thunderwitch from bleach, akise guy = Kaworu Nagisa from Eva and everything else in Mirai Nikki = Deadman Wonderland Mirai Nikki Manga came out befor DW. Well, its nearly impossible nowadays to create a character who doesnt RESEMBLE; or is a COPIE of someone else. DealWithIt.jpg Ok, but this anime is FULL of copies. I saw every character somewhere else. Maybe it's intencional ( since Kaworu and Akise are even dubbed by the same person) but I don't like it at all, nothing suprise me in this anime. |
| that Akise man, shit is getting real haha great epd. I'm very happy with this whole adaption thus far, everything is going the way it should. |
| This episode was great! One of my favorite shows this season! |
| another mind-blowingly amazing episode - it was very lame they tiled the dismembered arm - censorship is on it's way to getting as bad in japan as it is here in the u.s.a. (except in the u.s.a. they can show endless violence but no sex - sort of the opposite of japan) - scary!!! this episode had so many plot twists and new characters it was like a roller coaster ride - exceptional... |

Sakebi said: completely disagree - this show is one of the best mind-bending thriller/mystery/supernatural/twisted-paranoia-freakouts since death note - every episode has been better than the last!!! anyways, how can even say "a normal person wouldn't say such things" - when do events like these occur in the real world? am I the only one who really disliked this episode [and the whole anime too~], and thought it felt stupid, bad directed and edited and seriously not surprising? some dialogues felt really unreal and out-of-place... a normal person wouldn't say such things...

There's still room for improvement tho. |
| Everyone complains about fail!plot, but I'm just glad to see Akise/Accelerator/Kaworu/evil albino. |
| loving this show! |
| Oh god, Aru-kun, I love you! And thank god Akira Ishida voices him, it fits perfectly! Now I have one more couple to ship (YukiteruXAru) xD Great! I really need to start reading the manga >///< |

| Ugh I knew Mao was a piece of shit...and Hinata. Knew it the second I fucking saw them. |
 |
| When I first saw Mao I thought she was Yuno in disguise, their faces really do look alike though. I wonder whose body it was in the forest since Hinata still seems to have both arms attached at the end. |
 |
| DEM eyebrows. |

| I was getting really annoyed at the first part of this episode, "so fcking lame" or so I thought. However the second part made up for it, because I wasn't expecting it. Still, kinda the worst ep so far. |
 |
Sakebi said: Diarist said: "a normal person wouldn't say such things" There are normal people in 'Mirai Nikki'? stupid yuki considers himself normal, I believe... and leave that aside... who cares if they are normal or not, what he said simply felt forced for the plot. like, "We need to find a way to make him feel like they are his friends... oh! let's make him ask an unfitting question!" that's how I felt about it. and it was just an example that had popped into my mind... there were some more annoying sentences I just didn't recall... i know of people that would ask that IRL |
VanisherNov 29, 2011 11:33 AM
| oh maybe , the fact that he believed that they were his friend so easily is kinda lame , but yukieru is lame himself so... |
| Is there anybody on this board who actually feels either Yuki or Yuno are actually in danger? Perhaps I have just seen it all, but this series fails on the 'main character in peril' method of suspence. Decent ep - but everything that occured was highly predictable: - Yuki not being able to have friends - the new characters are badies present simply to kill off - the mains in a sticky situation we know they're going to get out of (maybe I speak for myself) The best thing about this ep' was Yuno's consistancy of Yandereness (messages in the dirt whilst looking pleasant from a distance). |

Lestrade said: When I first saw Mao I thought she was Yuno in disguise, their faces really do look alike though. My thoughts exactly :) I was already wondering why she had disguised herself and then I realized: "Oh, that's someone else!" xD Well Aru made up for the "mistakes" in this episode imo ;) Despite him resembling kaworu an aweful lot xD |

| What the hell did Eighth think when he devised his dog troop?! "Yes, let's give dogs teeth of metal, but instead of having their shape, let's give them human teeth. Because the teeth of a species habituated since the discovery of fire to eat tender foods are far more effective than the ones belonging to a carnivore!! Canines aren't worth nothing beside the incomparable strength of little, not pointed teeth!" |
| Not a bad episode, i relly liked it. Come to think of it, i found a favorite character at last, Akise. He is really cool and i like detective types for their power of deduction. It give some action some brain hardening to the anime. 5/5 |

raxius1230 said: Btw just this. My babyyyyyyyyy ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ He was (and still is) my favorite male character in Mirai Nikki ♥ (the female being Minene) I was fangirling the minute he came into the screen. Thankfully his voice suited him very much ♥. Looking foreword to the next episode. |
| Akise Aru is such a creep, ugh. After a crazy girl now there's also a crazy guy interested in Yukiteru. I don't think he's a diary owner though. Looks like that guy at the kennel is responsible for those dogs with metal teeth and his daughter was the one who got hold of his diary. Now Hinata and Mao both turned on Yukiteru. I wonder if they'll stay his enemy forever or see that Hinata's father is doing evil. The epilogue with Mur Mur was also pretty funny. Instead of a hospital she wants to go to an amusement park. =P |
 |
| Watching this show and reading the threads week by week after having already read the manga is the best thing. |
| Kousaka looks like Jintan from Anohana LOL. Anyways I liked the new characters, was pretty good overall. REALLY liking Hinata and her design, pretty much everything bout her. |

| Akise's just pure reincarnation of Nagisa Kaworu !!! |
Lestrade said: When I first saw Mao I thought she was Yuno in disguise, their faces really do look alike though. I wonder whose body it was in the forest since Hinata still seems to have both arms attached at the end. It was hers. She was laying on top of her arm. Next question is where she got an arm real enough that needed mosaics... |
| Hinata/Mao ... I am satisfied. Until the next episode. :3 The fandom might be overrun by yaoi fans, but I'm satisfied with my yuri. XD |
| This might have already been answered, didn't read everyone's comments, but why are people thinking Akise is a diary user? I didn't see anything in the show to say he was. The only thing that might hint at him being one is a scene with Murumuru but, unlike the others, not a single thing was said about a diary. Unless I missed something. To me he just seemed to be exactly what he said he was, an aspiring detective. He didn't seems to show any diary level knowledge, anyway. As for the episode, don't have a lot to say beyond that but it was pretty great. Akise seems like an interesting character and good addition to things. |
| Akise just rocks my boat. As for Akise being a diary holder...let's just say he's a very smart guy...very observant too of certain people... Also I couldn't help but turn away knowing the part that Yuki was going to be betrayed. I feel for Yuki man. :P |

Dusk252 said: Tanrim said: Probably because of what Hinata said at the end of the episode: "Just to let you know, Amano wasn't my target from the beginning. I was only after one thing... The Future Diary that you hold... Akise Aru!" Really, did you miss that?This might have already been answered, didn't read everyone's comments, but why are people thinking Akise is a diary user? I didn't see anything in the show to say he was. The only thing that might hint at him being one is a scene with Murumuru but, unlike the others, not a single thing was said about a diary. Unless I missed something. To me he just seemed to be exactly what he said he was, an aspiring detective. He didn't seems to show any diary level knowledge, anyway. I don't think he is one, though. Well, no, but I didn't pay it much mind. Seeing as how Akise hasn't shown anything beyond what a reasonably intelligent detective would have been capable of so far. Also, I could be wrong but none of the shadows seem to be a fit for him. Don't know why Hinata is assuming he has a diary. Could just be something like guilt by association, he must have been watching Yukiteru, or could be something else all together. Will probably see in the next episode, though. Don't think he is one of the 12 myself, either, but if the scene with Murumuru meant anything he could still be involved in some way. Regardless, I really hope Akise doesn't have a diary. Would be nice to have a capable person that can perform on the same level as the other holders without having future knowledge fed to him. |

| wonderful. I was impressed. Can't stop watching. Super combination of humor and serious moments. in waiting for a new episode |
| Shame on Yukkiteru for actually thinking he should and could establish friendships in a middle of a deadly battle royale. I know he isn't stupid, he just wants to connect to people. Something I can relate to to a stunning degree. But Yukkiteru should've immediately Great episode, and Akise feels like a deus ex machina (the plot device, not the character) made form. God knows its either the wolves (well, dogs this episode) or Yuno. |
Otsdarva said: Great episode, and Akise feels like a deus ex machina (the plot device, not the character) made form. God knows its either the wolves (well, dogs this episode) or Yuno. Well, when there's a character in the show called 'Deus ex machina' you know that the plot device will pop up eventually. As to whether this is it or not, who knows. We'll see if Akise is truely that miraculous or not. |
