| I really love those Inori and Shu moments when they sit down with each other and the little light orbs float, it's so nice. I really can't wait for the next episode. I don't think it is fair that everyone turned on Shu, I don't see the reason why when they are out and it's the end that they would still want to turn on him. Even that girl shouted, "you think you can peak into my heart!" or something, but it's like lol, you joined the whole thing so you did give him the right. Also Souta pushing him, I don't think he turned on him. I think he is just really out of it. He told himself, "I'm not wrong" but you could tell that he knew it was, he was infected, Hare died, Shu hated him, he is just really far gone. I feel that Inori will help Shu, and I think it will be more in the way of Mana coming and helping Shu. Inori turned into Mana when she was going to kill Arisa, so I think Mana will come out again or something will happen to help Shu. The only thing about this anime is I just do not see how it could end at all. When all is said and done, what can it go back to? I really don't see a happy ending but I love an anime that has an ending I can't predict, usually I can always call it around the last few episodes lol. |
| o genki desu ka |
| Well, Shu got what was coming to him, but it still really sucks what happened. I guess you can say he should have learned something about leadership before he started acting like a dick just because he thought it was the only way. Anyways, this show has gotten so much better. Oh, and is this sort of a Star Wars reference just with the whole arm instead of just the hand? Also, Shu should be thankful that at least Inori is sticking with him. |

| Well, It seems SHIT has got REALLY REAL? While it was still half-assed few previous episodes. This time GC has brought some big guns Highlight: Arisa turned slut and Gai's entrance with Shuu's power literally ripped off. As for characters, This episode managed to turn LOVE to HATE and vice versa. Shuu: He was an asshole who get bashed Now people will at least symphathize him. And if he manage to rise again with some kickass power or some good mind, I might end up liking him. Inori: She was hated for going insane. Now she is only one beside Shuu which is to be respected while there's no one on their side. Not to mention character development that lets her have some expressions on her face now. Yahiro: He was acting as the manipulator all along and seems to be another asshole. This time he turns out to be a good friend enough to confront Shuu when the latter is going wrong way. Arisa: She was getting loves and symphathy last episode. Now she demolishes her reputation. I don't really hate her for what she did. But there's no way I'll like her anymore. Gai: It's complicated. He was.. maybe best friend of Shuu. And he kicks ass. And this and that. Now he turns to another side. I still like him, especially his entrance. But he chopped Shuu's arm off. That's.. WOW. I don't know if he will get hate for that, but for now, not from me. I sure hope Shuu will make a dramatic comeback next episode. Because he surely will not get killed. At his current state, getting killed sounds better than living with nothing. AH... I wrote so long. |

prismheart said: YES! Simply and easily. Inori is that Princess from there easily. It looks loads of stuff may be from Star Wars setup in anime these days just that it's hard to prove it's taken from there.Oh, and is this sort of a Star Wars reference just with the whole arm instead of just the hand? |
| Holy fucking shit.. Mind is blown. I.. I got nothing to say. |
| Are we really suppose to belive that either main (Shu and Inori) are in any peril? Not at this time frame anyway. |
 |
| Gaah I really hate Yahiro, I feel like he brainwashes Shuu all the time and them he says Shuu went to far. D:<<< This episode was just pure mindfuck and I don't really get what the heck is going on. This anime makes me feel just depressed. It's not cool to have teens dying and killing each other all the time... .__. The evil Gai looked so sexy, but WHAT THEY DID TO HIM? HE CUT SHUU'S ARM! I really don't know what to wait for the next ep... .__.'' |
| OMG!!!! What just happened there??? Gai....Shu...Inori... Can't wait for next week!!!!!! <3 Argo is alive <3 yokatta~ |
  |
| Man all the characters in this show are so unlikeable. Arisa was a good girl and the writers just have to make a her sell her body for information. Ayase and Tsugumi are the only likable characters and at least one of them is going to die probably. |
  |
| haha awesome. Gai cuts shus arm off and inori gets staked liek a little bitch. take this shu nuthuggers. Gai pwns. |
| Based on the comments I think I'll wait until the show has ended before picking this series back up. I stopped watching after episode 5... Inori crushing Shu like that was too nuts for me. Tried to get back into it, but all the comments made it seem like it got worse. The writers and director mentioned that they wanted to make a series with a plot, but I can't really see a good plot. Were they going for a bad plot? |
TsukiumiFanboy said: anybody else want shu to just go ape shit on everyone?? i wouldnt feel a thing if he just destroyed everyone. i dont understand the hate towards shu at all by the students and shit i mean without him they dont have a chance at survival and its not like he wants to control everyone when they finally escape. he"ll prolly just leave without saying anything. its just so stupid and the only solution is punishment for everyone p.s i gonna make a bet here that mana is going to fucking cray soon Yes please. Shu, turn into the monster they want you to be. You still had a conscience before this. NO NEED FOR THAT PESKY THING ANYMORE, my lad. Destroy all. |
| It will only be a matter of time until he gets his ARM on this. |

Were they going for a bad plot? they maybe tried to make a good plot but it all is way too forced and not good at all. besides that they tried to to force it into a mindfuck somehow ..but that didnt work out either. that just reminds me what a clusterfuck this anime is. |
| That's just Fing great. The only characters I liked that were still alive are now falling back under Gai's control who will actually end up being the real villain. "Nuke Japan and be done with it." this is what I now feel. (this is just in the context of the story, I love the real Japan) |
| Niiiiiiiice. It's somewhat satisfying to see Shu and Inori suffering. They may be poor developed and obnoxious characters but at least they serve some entertainment here. Good to see Shu getting his punishment. One only get judged by their actions and not by what lies behind the facade and Shu did enough despicable things to deserve all the contempt against him even if he initially had good intentions. And the action scene wasn't too bad either if you turn off your brain and ignore how nonsensical and suicidal their strategy against the Auto-Insects was even if it worked ( I mean seriously, who thought it was a good idea to put up students who are only effective in combat agains mechas with machine guns and a wide firing range accordingly). I still wonder why they don't just use Tsugumi's void ability to create clones to fight, it would certainly prevent casualties... At least the whole school sequence will be over after this episode (at least I hope so) and the ridiculous concept of Shu's "kingdom" will get abandoned. |

| Shu has it hard... Hated by everybody for anything he tries to do. Also, all the main characters are becoming annoying while Shu is becoming more and more a-okay. Well, time to go insane Shu. Not just the "badass" guy but the insane mothafucka who's gonna kill everybody. |
| Good episode,GAI!! Shu deserved what he got he became an asshole even that he had good intentions tyrants always get what they get sooner or later. I hated they made Arisa a slut i liked her now i hate her that he sell her body for info....hope she gets also what she deserve. Gai retuns!!! YAYAYAY and being more badass that ever!!! Even that i think he is being use is great seeing him back,now lets see what he will do with the void power. Soooooo Japan is getting nuke lets see what they will do to avoid it,also what will happen with Shu and Inori. Cant wait for next episode. |
| Probably the best episode of the show so far. |
minatojs said: Did Gai not think Shu was a great friend and someone he learned from? To go and say that Shu is nothing and then proceed to remove his arm and void powers was a WHT moment. I think he's Gai no more. Gai is dead. He might be a clone created by the villains and so be villain. minatojs said: Plus why is everyone against Shu, his mum, Gai..... pretty much everyone apart from Inori. For his mother, there must be a reason. |
|
| I still think that the Gai in this episode (Rey Za Burrel!!!) is the same Gai. I explained it in page two. If he really wanted to kill Shu he would've. Knowing him this is all part of his plan to make Shu stronger and free himself (actually die for good) so he can be at peace and crap. Would. Not. Doubt. It. |
minatojs said: True, it does seem like a different Gai. But who knows, its possible Gai was like this from the beginning. As for shus okasan, the reason must be really special to allow your son to face this. He looks like he might be slaughtered for heavens sake. Plus, love your profile avatar, such an epic moment in Another lol Pssh parenting who needs it... :| I kinda felt bad for Shu tbh but next ep is focused on Inori and Shu... Can't wait :) |
 |
| List of people that needs to die after this episode: - Arisa - Soda - bastards who harassed Ayase - CloneGai |

After having calmed my emotions. I will come out clean. Due to the following, Along with the other ones I made in the spoiler
That being said that’s how I felt. Shu was shit and received loads of shits from people. However maybe we should STOP! Look at what he suffered. Maybe it’s time to show Shu some compassion. Anyone noticed the big ass casualties? The first being in the spoiler However the second is where it got totally sick. The girl in the spoiler So the end is the following,  B2 bomber. Can have 2 nukes or more. Japan you are going down less you do something. So I am wondering how much people are crying for Shu and Inori? Also How the fuck did Gai get to pierce Inori if he had no powers before he got them from Shu? WTF plot hole? Damn! Shit hit me more than before when I realized some things Shu went through and put myself in his shoes. |
| Thank u GC... u have regained my full interest... 5 more eps. 2 go and they better wrap it up in style. Though i'm gonna rewatch the entire series.... season 2?? |
| The tables have turned! XPPPPPP Idk if this new Gai is a good or not... But Shu isnt a good guy either.. -_______- AND MOTHERFUCKING OHH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!! >:OOOOOOOOOOOOOO I FUCKING HATE INORI!!!!!!!!!!! SHES SO GODDAMN ANNOYING!!!! |
| What did I just watch? First off, Arisa became a slut and used her body for information TWICE. Soda- I mean Souta- snapped. Yahiro was actually being honest. What. Still don't like him. Kanon wanted to tell Yahiro something, but then the scene switched >__> The students rebelled and apparently everyone knew about it except for Inori and Ayase? Tsugumi probably knew about it, but she most likely didn't do anything about it because they couldn't? Gai is back with white hair. Cuts off Shu's arm. And says that he was ALWAYS the King. Then stands there as Shu screams in pain. I actually kind of feel sorry for him... He's actually gone through a lot. The scenes with Inori and Shu are pretty well-made actually. They're really... calming. Especially with all the chaos going on at the school. AND WTF IS HARUKA DOING. SHE MUST HAVE REASONS BUT SRSLY. And that dumb satellite is back. And Japan's gonna get nuked. Now everyone's screwed. Even worse: NO FRIGGIN DARYL FOR 2 EPISODES. IN. A. ROW. OR SEGAI. And what about Shibunugi? And how did he know that they had Gai? I have a feeling that the Funeral Parlor is going to make some alliance with the GHQ. Shu and Inori vs Japan loolll. AND YAY! ARUGO IS ALIVE. And lol at everyone crying over how Arisa "died" the last episode. Now everyone does wish that she died. Oh the irony. And how did Gai use that void BEFORE he got the king's power? Screams plothole. But who cares. Shu got his arm cut off. I think many people out there enjoyed that. |
| Shu deserved this. But I can't help but like him now. What a development. The characters are so f***ed up now. And how the heck Gai got that blade and stabbed it to Inori? This is the first time that I want Inori and Shu to be together. From the preview, I can see that they managed to escape. I wonder when will he get back his powers? Probably do the contract again with Mana through Inori to get his powers back. Now, I just want Shu to kill all that betrayed him. I want him to be a soulless killer. And just be with Inori. |

| あなたが...それでも何も変化に耐え...しかし... ...場合に前方にも一歩を踏み出すなら...私は感じの何かが変更されるている、と...何か良い処理が 行われます！ |
| WTF. That's the only thing going through my mind right now. I know some people are happy that Gai has come back (I like Gai, I mean, not my favorite but he was cool) but GAI is probably going to end up being the villain. I'm sorry but if you really look past how badass he was from the first few episodes to now, you know something is off. I don't care how much of a mercenary he was, I do not believe that Gai would have EVER cut off Shu's arm like that. As for Shu, as much as he might have been spineless or whatever, I really hope he makes a great comeback. This reminds me of Simon from Gurren Lagann, and without spoiling what happens, when one suffers a great loss and is a bit of a twit for a while, they always come back as a boss. As for Arisa, her character change was too adrupt. It's justifiable due to the circumstances but the pacing of the show made it really weird and awkward. That being said, I do admire what GC is doing but this show has plenty of flaws that are more and more obvious every episode. I mean, the pacing is just really awkward. I do feel sorry for Shu and Inori though. Though, I'm spectulating as to why Inori and Arisa changed so readily....is it because of Mana's influence. Otherwise, I don't even know what the fuck... Argh, wtf. |
| Oh my, the show just got so mad! I usually don't like status quo but the way they destroyed it now was crazy. Oh well, I actually liked it, I'm finally for once looking forward for the next episodes of this! xD And what exactly happened to Inori at the end, her Void just seemed to have been drawn across her body, that was weird... O.o |

| I am just glad this school arc is done. |
 |
| =.=.. Didn't Gai just use his own void to forcibly draw out Inori's void? You can see the other void-user (forgot his name) pulling out Gai's void beforehand so it's not a plot hole.. Anyway, I enjoyed this episode Loved the InoriXShu moments and just really loved Inori:). I love how in the episode previews it seems that she's the only one really there for him. I can't wait to see how Shu will get his new power though. Judging from the opening, Inori will somehow give it to him? |

Plot holes? Huh? Yuu drew a void from a figure obscured from view; we can safely assume, judging by the end of the episode, that the mystery man was Clone!Gai. Gai's void is a gun with the ability to bring out the voids of others. He drew Inori's sword with his own gun. |
Yumekichi11 said: Damn! Shit hit me more than before when I realized some things Shu went through and put myself in his shoes. Yeah, I guess I should have done that too. I did think he needed a wake up call but the damage to him might have been a little much. Haha, I guess you really need time to decompress after watching the last couple of episodes. |
