Nephenee said: I think his mother died because in her pendant there was a medicine or something, but since it was a puzzle Freecell couldn't solve it alone... and so he asked Kaito, who was a genius, to solve it. But he didn't show up and well, we know the rest of the story That's sounds good, better than "mommy died because of you" i hope it's something like that, i really hope it. |
| Freecell is more twisted than Rook... Though it is also Kaito's fault for not making the promise. Everybody is obsessed to Kaito! |

ownosourus said: His mother died because he was sad because Kaito didn't solve a puzzle with him...Give me a break, the plot is becoming ridiculous. Who the hell write this script? O_O Not that ridiculous to me, try to look at it this way: Freecell barely had any friend, was lonely and his mother was in sick condition. His mother proprably constantly worried about him, especially since she knew she hadn't long to live and that she'll leave her only son alone. Freecell, in an attempt to erase her worries, made a promise with Kaito to solve a puzzle together. By having fun at home and showing her he has a friend, he could let her die with that much less worries. Kaito didn't show up. Not only did this must have felt very bitter for his mother to see her son sad because of a broken promise, he left her with much more worries in the end and feel like Kaito is the reason his mother couldn't die with a smile... which would be the logical conclusion. More than the plot becoming ridiculous, the story just badly conveyed this bitter feeling. It's not just Kaito's fault but Freecell's reason for doing what he is doing is more than plausible. A bridge can break if it miss a single screw... a small event that doesn't mean much for someone can be the start of everything breaking down for another person. |

| I am not surprised by these melodramatic turn of events. Remember, guys, Kaito's parents were killed by a puzzle They were killed...by a puzzle. Do you understand how ridiculous that sounds? At times I can't tell whether this is a parody or not. |
Mormegil said: They were killed...by a puzzle. Do you understand how ridiculous that sounds? An Indiana Jones-type puzzle can kill alright. Nothing ridiculous there. I mean.... a bracelet that can conveniently enhance your brain waves? That's actually pretty ridiculous too. |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
Nephenee said: I think his mother died because in her pendant there was a medicine or something, but since it was a puzzle Freecell couldn't solve it alone... and so he asked Kaito, who was a genius, to solve it. But he didn't show up and well, we know the rest of the story I also thought it might be the case. Death caused by those puzzles of sadness (you know what I mean) sounds a little bit too ridiculous. But who knows, this anime has never been intelligent and directors may have decided to completely abandon logic. |
| Well, at least that should render Pinochle useless for the rest of the show. Typical "won through mindgames, that the main character won't fall for twice"-situation. Without a rival on Team "formerly Phi Brain", he'll be a free win from now on, I guess. Can't wait for Ana getting serious next (?) week. He didn't seem to happy about what happened to Kaito. |
 |
| lol seriously these are the worst villains ever. you didn't talk to us as a kid! you solved our puzzles too fast! my mom died because you didn't do puzzles with me! you promised to do puzzles, but never showed up! they act like Kaito is a terrible person for this crap ahaha. this plot has gotten so bad. I swear Gammon and the rest should just walk out over how absurd this whole ideal is. Pinochle somehow wins by trolling. So Gammon probably wins, that means useless Ana somehow gets a win to tie it? ehhh? |
 |
| So the entire motivation of the villains this season is BAWWWW HE IGNOREEEED MEE IN GRADE SCHOOL. You have to be kidding me. |
| "You made mommy die sad." I laughed so hard at that. The whole situation is retarded as is this anime. As laughable as I find it, I can sort of buy that Freecell really believes Kaito is responsible for his mother's death but the fact that Kaito accepts it just because Freecell says it is completely ridiculous. It's not like Kaito knows Freecell all that well or has any reason to believe his enemy. Sure the enemy knows a lot about him but it's obvious that they are twisting and manipulating information. Honestly though I don't expect anything more from this disappointing clusterfuck of an anime any more. Just boneheaded and uninspired writing. The puzzles are poorly done and are not entertaining to watch because the anime seems to discourage audience participation with the way the puzzles are shown. There is no way to try and put yourself in the protagonists shoes and solve the puzzle along with him because we're never really shown enough to do so. It's done this way because he puzzles are generally very simplistic and if we could see that it would take away from the fake genius of these characters. I know this is just a shounen anime but I was expecting something silly yet entertaining with this show. I didn't think it would be super though provoking but I though maybe there would be some clever puzzles that it would be interesting to see the solutions to. Instead I get a barely watchable mess of an anime. It's sad really. The generic writing, the shitty characters and the unimaginative puzzle design are all very disappointing. |

| Just like most of you, I think that was hilarious as hell. Let's just hope that there is actually something more about on how Freecell's mom died. Though I really loved the shampoo and how did Cubic knew that part. Gammon's reaction lol. And wow, Kaito lost against Pinochle. AGAIN. |

| Kaito didn't keep his promise because he was sad; that made Freecell sad, so Freecell's mother got sad and died. Sadly. Holy mother of unintentional comedy, that was just ridiculous. |

(Terry Pratchett, Interesting Times) |
| I don't think they meant it as in Freecell's mother died BECAUSE she was said. I think she was dying already, but ended up being sad while dying because Freecell was all depressed due to Kaito not showing up. It is ridiculous either way, but I just don't think they were trying to make it sound like she died from sadness. Pinochle just distorted and exaggerated it to mess with Kaito's mind. Also, holy shit. Sugita-sama just reached a new level of epic in my book. *fans herself* THAT VOICE, THAT ACTING. |
| Wow, it's getting more and more ridiculous. Didn't think it's even possible. |
| This season just went from bad to worse. Kaito forgot to play with him on Sunday, so he blames his mother's death on Kaito and goes nuts. Nice. |
 |
| *Facepalm* indeed~ |
 |
| Dat bitch slap. I had to facepalm myself this episode as well. I hope Kaito can get back to his damn game soon. |
 |
| Just got to this episode... Wow... I think this is the most retarded reason a villain could have. Didn't fulfill a promise to play with puzzles for day and the guy wants to fuck over the world because of that. /Plot. |
| Awkward thoughts are travelling in my head second bad male chara is telling us that Kaito is for him only.....oh god. Pretty weak episode based on childhood vague memories and complexes |
 |
| What the heck, Freecel's mother died because Kaito didn't come to play with her child?? *Pokerface* |
| Weaklings can't choose their way of death - Law |
| Decent episode, I am getting bored of this same puzzle though, let's see what's next though. |
 |
| Mommy died because she was sad... No mommy died probably because she was sick, anyways from what i read what other people speculated so far, the pendant is probably a puzzle and contained medicine and Kaito is the only one smart enough to have opened it in time.. Maybe if Freecel had asked for help instead of a fucking play-date then maybe Kaito would've actually helped. |
