Yeah finally some good action. I was afraid that this anime would turn into a mainstream romance/comedy one. Luckily it didn''t =D

Btw did the producers leave a huge amount of background or the story out of this anime compared to the manga?

Cuts costs, looks "stylish". This is 101 in SHAFT animation rules and if I remember correctly the director of this series cut his teeth working for SHAFT (Silver Link can almost be considered a "new" SHAFT) much like Sankarea's director (who worked in Arakawa, Madoka Magica and Denpa Onna, all three being SHAFT works).

Really? I find it intensely grating and annoying. I know she's lonely being a ghost and invisible to most people and all but isn't she keeping Niya from having a normal school life? (guess not if he doesn't have a problem with it) I mean somebody has to notice him talking to himself or being dragged around by Yuuko...and think Niya's off his rocker.

Wasn't expecting something like this, so this is a nice surprise. Pretty interesting stuff.

Shadow Yuuko is finally introduced after appearing a few times in the background in some of the earlier episodes. Some of the content I thought was skipped appeared later here, apparently further reordering the content. Anyway, seeing those parts animated was great. Quite a visual treat for this episode, though I did find Shadow Yuuko's appearance to be less freaky than expected. Not black enough, perhaps?

Now that they've come back to this part, it seems to me they're planning to go through with all the Shadow Yuuko related parts in one go, hopefully also including those from the more recent chapters. The special ED visuals for this episode was also a nice touch. Looking forward to the next episode.

Oh wow something is finally happening! I think this is the first time I'm really anticipating the next episode..w

Oh shit so this is what the whole amnesia part is about. Wow everything is getting even more interesting now. I didn't expect the plot to become like this, hmm I like it.

Ah so that's what Shadow Yuuko meant when she said things are going to repeat itself again. Yuuko pushing her negative feelings and memories onto the Shadow yet again. Can't freaking wait for the next episode.

Wow, awesome episode. The way all the stories pulled into one was awesome. Kinda figured Shadow Yukko was her "dark side" or something like that, so that wasn't too surprising. Didn't see the very end coming though. I wonder what's gonna happen now? 5 episodes left; should be interesting.

I doubt anyone is gonna respond to this since I am slowpoke, but:

There is one interesting inconsistency.

Yuuko said that she volunteered herself to sacrifice herself in order to quell the plague. If that were the case, there is no reason why her leg should be broken. Breaking a leg prevents someone from escaping on their own; why do that to someone who volunteered. Me thinks shadow Yuuko will answer that.

Well, Yuuko wanted to forget everything, and she did, so I'm not surprised that she could have made that up just to take Teichii's attention.

As @Yankun said, when Teichii suggested she may have been a sacrifice she decided on her own that it was willing because that's what she wants to believe, or what she wants him to believe.

On the other hand, the broken leg doesn't say anything about that one way or another. She easily *could* have been willing, and "they" stood her at the top of the stairs and pushed her down, so that while falling and tumbling she broke her leg.

Soo yeah , it seems she put all her memories of hatred and regret into that shadow Yuuko . At the end of the episode I didn't see that coming ...

Wow awesome ep cant wait for the next one.

wow, that got sour quick...

sucked to see her jealousy building up, then it REALLY sucked to see her negative emotions completely retake her towards the end. :/

i thought teiichi was dead, until the end of the credits. thank goodness

i hope yuuko can get rid of her negative self and get back with teiichi, those two are just such a good couple

I'm really liking this show, especially this ep! I loved it.
Playing basketball with him was funny, to me.
Pushing him down the stairs was definitely unexpected.

The show isn't scary, but it can be a little creepy. I don't think any anime scared me, or ever will, but I think some shows can be creepy, and the creepiness went up a little, and I love it.

Poor Yuuko.

Awesome episode :D

Great episode. This anime sure took a while to get good. 7 damn episodes.

Now I know what pic I can use if I ever write a mini review about this anime LOL

Oh my god! This episode was amazing.

Lots of plot developments with shocking ending. It's really awful to see the destruction of Yuuko. Having her memories passed on to her shadow must really cause problems for Teiichi, although it could be a relief to start anew again.

Their confrontation with Shadow Yuuko stongly reminded me of the Persona series. Similar dialogue too.

Impressed with how they portrayed the final scene with the dramatic twist, Yuuko missing from the ED and then the reveal that Teiichi's not actually dead from a fall down the stairs. Love this show.

OMG you pushed HIM ?!?!?!?!?!?! now Sendo Aichi is going to summon his knights to fight you !
