Now I must continue watching this, since it seems to have lesbians -- Ishu x Nakiami?
I'd fund it!

Gah. I think you're looking into that too much. There's probably quite a wide age range there. I think it'd be more familial love if anything. I mean, Nakiami did say that Ishu saved her, she probably raised (or dragged her) up. So I don't think it's really in the lesbian sense *yawn*.

I thought that the scene between them too was quite wonderful. Ishu's always such a tough woman so it's nice to see a more, maybe maternal, side to her.

The scene at the start of the episode was definitely interesting with Furuichi. It'll be interesting to see what he becomes. He mentions later on about the bus incident, but I don't think that it would have derived from that far back, would it? So maybe when he was in the military campaign to obtain the green soul stone. In the caves.

I want Haru's long hair back, sure it suits her, but the longer hair was so much better ;_;

I really can't wait to see Akiyuki able to fully control the hiruko. It'll be grand.

So it looks like we're heading the Tessik village, will be interesting to see the relationship between Nakiami and the girl in the photo. Don't look similar enough to be sisters, maybe chidhood friends?

Sentan island first. Looks like it's gonna heat up a bit this episode. Atleast he might actually meet his mum this ep. The poor woman must be going out of her mind with worry, the least he could do is write her too.

Furuichi was ridiculous. And I'm so disapointed in him being a Xam'd, he doesn't diserve it, he's such a wimp

I'm excited that Nakiami and Akiyuki are going out on their own. That's means we will see some new adventures and some character development from them before they regroup.

What a wonderful dramatic episode. Bones really has learned from E7 (whoda thunk?)

I feel sorry for Furuichi now. I really wouldn't mind a Furuichi x Haru pairing as long as I get my Akiyuki x Nakiami end.

I don't hate Furuichi that much now but I still think he will lose himself in the next episodes and become an antagonist that may or may not redeem himself at the end of the series.

I don't like this episode, especially the last part. The only part I like was only when they got down from that ship, now time to see some adventure and action.

Furuichi is still a jerk

Don't really like Haru's short hair, but maybe some progress with her and Akiyuki now.

And they're off! Quite a good episode, the last part was also interesting! But what's up with that dark spirit attacking Nakiami in the beginning?

Ha and now Furuichi is also a "monster." Karma's a bitch ain't it? Haru don't you dare get closer to him -_-

I'm on board with this.

Also, I really don't see it ending in Aki/Nakiami, since she is only interested in Xam'd.

Furuichi's been so fucking pathetic and despicable so far, but the end of this episode HIT THE SPOT.

AND BY SPOT, I MEAN MY NIPPLES

AND BY NIPPLES, I MEAN MY ANAL CAVITY

LOL Furuichi playing the victim card to get some sympathy from Haru. Man, fuck you, Furuichi. If this turns out to be Furuichi x Haru, I will be so disappointed. It just does not feel right. Also, I don't get any kind of Nakiami x Aki vibes at all

I don't really care about Haru or Furuichi at all. I have seen very similar characters before in other anime. So far they haven't been relevent to the plot either. I am hoping for some answers or at least some background info on Nakiyami in the coming episodes.

It's nice when characters communicate with their words instead of having dumb misunderstandings. Tho I don't totally believe that Furuichi came to his senses. But if he did, the story implications would be nice.

Bottling up your feelings and never releasing them always hurts you in the long term and sometimes in the short term too. I'm glad Ishu and Nakiami got to have that moment on the beach. It was very heartfelt. In fact they might as well has just called this the tears episode.
