THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------


A little talk between Master and Mea in the beginning there. I liked the bond between Yami and Mikan this episode as the two gets along quite well. Poor Mikan later though :(

Nice fights this episode and the OST.

A rare occasion of Yami smiling (and trying to make other expressions) !!!

I think the last time I saw it was when the flower of lust grows on Yami's head in one episode of Motto....
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

OMG, my heart.

Ah yes, a bitter woman who was shamed by Yami tried to get revenge using Mikan. Thankfully, Momo is there to save them and all ends well.

It will be interesting to see how far they took Mikan licking Yami's nipple when the discs come out.

Haha Mikan getting paranoid yet again about Momo and Rito.

These white blobs! GODDAMNIT.

Just realized Nana's seiyuu also voiced Sena from Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai.

Nice to see Run again!

Oshizu with the hilarious levitation technique.

That's cute of Mikan to give Yami a taiyaki keychain. Matching ones too.

And that drama on the streets. Naze!? Naze?!?!?!

Fucking cute when she was like "That was a lie." That ^___^ face was ridiculously adorable.

Bam, and Azenda storms in...with Mikan as hostage?!

Rofl @ the fight scene between Mikan and Yami. Mikan crotch-crushing Rito's face. Wut. And that whip...apparently it's a magic whip that only tears apart clothing (it isn't but that's what it seems like). Is Yami even flinching? Extending hands...ouch. Never heard Yami in pain before. That was a nasty 'scream'.

Man if those fucking beams of light didn't block that scene when she's lying on the floor. GODDAMNIT.

And Momo comes in with that black rose of doom. Am I the only one who thought Sailormoon? Only she can make flowers scary as fuck.

Loved Mea's reaction at the end. Pretty much on the verge of being yandere.

Can't wait for next episode. Gotta love Yami's "uso desu".

'What I want to do is kill you right now...just kidding.' XD Yami was superb in this episode in more ways then one. It's a rare treat to see her smile like that.

As much as I love Momo you will be asking for a death wish if you really get on the wrong side of her like that. XD

Great to see Run in this episode.

Really enjoyed it, always puts a smile on my face on a Saturday morning. =)

It was nice to see another warm moment of Yami & Mikan's friendship and it finally felt that after this episode that would spread to others too.

Momo once again kicking ass with her plants was more interesting this time round, cause I guess I took her more seriously since she had her killing intent out and all.

I think I said before in like the ep 1 discussion that I wasn't really bothered by the censors, well oh damn I take that back, these patches of white light are bloody more annoying that I had previously anticipated.

Wow, Yami smiles is so aww to me. I liked how Yami and Mikan got together. But dang, that whip abused the woman did to Yami. :S At least Momo went to the rescue.

And what a preview, Lol. That dog.

Btw, which chapter is this in the manga?

Agh! Those stupid white beams of light covering up all the good parts. I wished I could have seen Mikan and Yami's yuri moment.

I still loved this episode though. Funny how Mikan was pissed in the beginning when she Momo and Rito "talking" to each other only to find out that they were just playing a game. It was also really sweet seeing Yami and Mikan getting even closer and Mikan giving Yami that taiyaki keychain. Too bad the moment those two parted ways we knew that Mikan would be used against Yami.

And that fight was amazing. I lol'ed at how she crotch-crushed Rito's face just like at pro. Who knew that Mikan had those moves in her?

Momo once again reminds me why she's my favorite character. She's devious, perverted and if you mess with the one she loves, she's ruthless.

Yami is my favorite TLR character. It's so nice to finally see her smile like that. Her feelings for Rito is increasing a lot during the episode. It was also nice how she decided to risk her life to save Mikan. This episode was so emotional and sentimental. This may be favorite episode of the series, EXCEPT FOR THE DAMN CENSORSHIP. God, I wanted to see that Yuri scene. >.<

He looks a lot taller than he does in real life (by which I mean the first two series). Clearly he left an impression on that assassin.

Those blobs of light have done me in. I'm going to read the relevant manga chapters after every episode now, just so I can see what really happened.

This episode shows why it is absolutely right to make Yami and Momo the main heroines in Darkness... and yet we still get to see a bit of Lala, Nana, Kotegawa, Saienji and even Run and Shizuka (and of course Mikan). Absolutely no complaint (except the occasional slight sakuga issues)
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

Momo and Yami are certainly more interesting characters than Lala and Haruna IMO. I feel that Lala and Haruna are little more one-dimensional characters while Momo and Yami have more depth to them.

Yami is trying to find herself and come to terms of who she is and what she's done. Momo is doing her best to make Rito happy in her own hilarious and devious way while risking her safety to protect Rito.

I personally love the fact that they're the focus of Darkness since we now get an actual story instead of funny shorts. While I loved and thought that Motto was better than the first season, I missed having a story that the first season had. Darkness so far has the story I like while not having boring filler in it.

I'd say the anime would be more epic if it were more gruesome. Such as Momo being either a Yandere or sadistic in combat. She shouldn't have spared that hoe. Would have been nice to see some pieces of flesh lying around. Or if that rose was lethal and the hoe would go into sporadic spasms foaming at the mouth.

...I'm fucked in the head aren't I?

Epic maybe, but this is not what ToLoveRu is for. We do not watch ToLoveRu for gruesomeness or meanness. I expected that assassin to survive even though Momo seemed to say that she would not spare her. This is how the world of ToLoveRu works anyway. If we need gruesomeness, we can always watch Blood-C.

Makes you wonder if they will leave the manga the superior one?
