And another Manga added to my reading list....

Clearly the dad has some major issues going: always wearing gloves except for when he touches his daughter, let alone the obsessive control. This episode actually provides a good base backstory for why Rea would be suicidal, and why she would have nobody other than the MC to reach out to.
Please don't feed the trolls!

A show about a necrophiliac and a girl with an incestual infatuated father. Still not really seeing where this show is trying to go. At least Wanko is nice to look at.

Now that was a strong episode. We get some development on Rea (may her father burn in fucking hell) and the ritual finally succeeds. Damn, that cliffhanger was a nasty one and left me longing for more. I'm really looking forward to see what happens next.

Anyways, felt like this episode was stalling. Though I guess it was important to tell us about her father.

Good episode,the fathers is a FREAK!!!

Great adaptation of the manga,the way the show what a freaking asshole freak monster Rea father is was pretty good,the extra scenes give it even better....

Just one thing,those who want the beat the shit of his father raise your hand!?!!


Well besides the fiend father little Rea was soooo damn cute!! All that Rea has suffer because of his father is unforgivable!!

Also people are forgetting of Wanko!! She was nice this episode and i want uncensored Wanko in BD's!!!

At the end the potion work on Babu and Rea drink the potion in a moment of weakness,so i think people already can see what is going to happen next....things will get even better after next episode.

Next week its going to be GREAT!!! Just wait!!!

As long as this show keeps up with its overall serious tone like it has been for the past two episodes, I'm thinking that it will undoubtedly become the "dark horse" of the season.

I honestly was never expecting Sankarea to be this riveting~

Clearly not a comedy, at least so far. As it stands, I'll need to make sure I watch something happy afterwards every Friday, cause so far it's worth sticking with.

What she drank was probably only enough to make her sick overnight.

(I assume you mean "her father"?) I've got a 12 gauge pump I haven't had a chance to use in a long time. He'd do just as well as a rabbit or a ground hog, though I doubt he'd taste as good.

Don't count on it.

Comedy and Ecchi are two of this shows genre. Once the show gets past introductions and the initial plot, it will likely focus more on comedy and ecchi ( Both of which I love :D ). Makes sense if you think about it. Many lawls can be had with a zombie chick. Not to mention the MC is a necrophiliac which fits right with the ecchi genre once the initial plot kicks off.

This is why you have to look closely at the genres of a show or you'll set yourself up for disappointment.

I'm liking this show so far, hate waiting a week between episodes though. This is the first season of anime I've ever followed, so it's going to take some getting used to. Marathon-ing is so much more efficient!

Sankarea is awesome so far...
Yep Everyone is in agreement...Rea's Dad needs to die for his obsessiveness.
I kinda like it feelings getting developed there...between Rea and Chihiro.
It reminded me a little bit of remeo and juliet with her taking the potion :'(

Damn! that hit close to home. The agony of having a freak for a father and lusting after a normal family is a feeling i definitely get. A great emotional episode.
I know what thread am gonna visit right after this. If i remember correct there was a thread called "anime character you will like to punch in the face" in the anime discussion main page. Well i definitely found my man. I want to kick his ass and dance on his head so badly.

Other than that Rea was really cute in her loli and normal version and Wango one more time was sexy as hell. That girl is smocking hot and awesome.

Also we have a zombie cat. I wonder if the zombie car will be trying to eat other cats now.
Rea also took the potion thing. She's still alive so what exactly will it do? I wonder if she will have an accident next episode and die while the potion is still inside her because i think the preview seem to show something like that.

Credit to DEEN since they have good for this and KZD. Yeah, you can rag about the director etc etc. but they have been cool since the past few seasons.

They portrayed the dad as a freak and creep enough that it is convincing. I even think it's better than the manga since I didn't feel that bad for her just like I did in the anime version.

Amazing episode, I'm really beginning to like Sakarea (both the series and the character). It was dark yet smart and engaging, and the direction flows just perfectly. Great one, which could turn to a 9 next week.

Im enjoying this more than I thought I would. Sanka Rea is kind of boring character overall but Chihiro Furuya really makes it worthwhile. I do kind of want her mother to get more involved.

This episode was so damn sad and so disturbing. I felt like crying. T_T

That guy is fucking scumbag who needs the most horrible death ever. Someone should cut his limbs off and feed them to cockroaches. and bury half of his body in the mud so it starts rotting with his nerve senses still functioning. /rage.

Yes! This!

The show has done such a good job so far of crafting the story behind Rea in such a limited time. It is so good that even someone like me, a person who really doesn't like the zombie trope at all, can understand Rea's willingness to do such a horrible thing to herself. All her effort was a desperate attempt to escape her sadistic narcissistic domineering father.

I'm definitely looking forward to the next episode to see how the story plays out with Babu and Rea both being Zombified from the potion.

Another great episode i was really hoping it wasn't the case with her father from what i first saw the op last week but it was.. since everyone has most likely said everything about it i will just say this hes a fucking scumbag and i hope someone gives him a good beating in the end (best series ever if the MC does it)and to make matters worst hes a pedo with power of money.


i hope after next week it becomes less depressing and these two episodes were to set up the plot


and on a side note great moment at the start when she tripped and for once the guy actually looked away and didn't get yell at lol

i just no words say about but still really what kind of father would do these kinds of "things" really this is so disturbing & nobody even tried to stop him yea what a total (bleep) that father is.

so wanted to grit those teeth punch him & feel sorry rea really cause of that no good father "doing" is still feel you want to help her.

look like the potion did works cause babu cat has flown jump away!!!

now with rea drinking oh wonder what next?

Wow I liked this episode a lot. Adapted from the manga very well. Some parts seemed new to me or maybe I just haven't read the manga in ages but it was still great. Rea's life sure is messed up. Her father's one obsessive pedo lmao. Taking nude pictures of her daughter each birthday since she was little, not cool. (puke) Still messed up how her father restricts Rea from doing/having anything.

Those Furuya and Rea scenes are simply awesome. Gotta love cute Rea is dammit! xD
A bit of fan service, Wanko taking a bath at Furuya's house lmfao. Babu finally zombified. :D Rea drinks the poison. :S

Really looking forward to the next episode. Omfg, shit's gonna get real now. :)

This is more than fan service for the manga readers like me, it really can stand on its own. so good is it. Both episodes made me want to re-read it and I can't resist anymore but it reminded how much I hate Rea's father. There will be a great climax to that, so look forward to it.

I actually like the music, I don't know why, it adds something to the feeling. We never get enough Wanko but she will have her moments. I love Rea's innocence and how she is getting closer to Chihiro, these moments outshine everything for me. Remember how she said she will probably not see him anymore at that place and later when she went into the thicket and turning around for Chihiro, I love that.
