Kaho is so cute.

The ending was interesting, I never expected him to be nice to Kaho . What she said about the other Sousuke being warm while the Sousuke we know is cold was interesting.

Man I'm with you guys, I was about to lose my shit when Ao asked her if she was blind and it showed a close up of her eyes..hopefully that isn't foreshadowing anything. I really like Kaho already, and I think Atsushi more than likes her lol.

Surely the "one thing Sou wishes for" has to do with Ao being the one with the warmth. The numbness to pain was also a pretty big hint. How much does Sousuke actually feel? And if Ao is the one that can feel, I sense some tragic developments coming up..

Oh just another episode that has made me hungry, nothing new there. But it did turn out to be a nice substory in there. :) And I'm a little glad Shino slapped that boy but they were able to turn things around and be nice as a group. I was a little afraid for Kaho but glad to see that was fine as well.

When Ao appeared i was going to flip shit if he did something to Kaho, he just emits this eerie feeling when ever hes on screen that leads me not trust him.

Really cute episode! :D

And if i'm right. Ao is up to something with Shino in next ep x3
My life is nothing without my dearest guys in pain.
Love it, whatever it's a Banana made with Fish. It's BANANA FISH. My biggest favorite due to the pain. Pain is good when you want it to go away from your own pain~

Then there is Yaoi. Oh yes, Yaoi.
- Yaoi is best when your watching it in HD! xD

Asking myself the same thing. The main characters are Shino, Sousuke and Ao.

Like everyone, I also almost lost my shit when Ao appeared in front of Kaho together with that ost. But the ost became "happier".. so I guess Ao can also be nice and show a smile some times.

(Smiling Ao)

Nice twist! The food stand guy was a ghost.
I was scared Ao was going to kill Kaho.

Kaho-chan is so cute. :)
Hmmp, I really wonder why Souseke's hands are cold and he can't feel any pain.. while the Shadow Souseke's hands are warm. What if he's the real Souseke :/
Ugh..

One is warm while the other is cold. Interesting

Shino seems to be lolicon mangnet.

Kawaii Kaho, man I wish Shino wooped those kids assess for walking out on him.

Dead steamed bun owner asking Shino for some steam bun advice, looks like if Shino wants to he can open up his own steam bun business.

Well he wouldn't exactly take her eyes because she is blind, that it would only inconvenience him, right? Though I did feel some tension so I kinda expected him to offer her a week of being able to see in exchange for something but I guess he didn't.

Nice episode, a bit slow paced but in a good way. Seems like Shino keeps attracting supernatural stuff to him like ghosts. Also I'm very interested in Sousuke's wish, is it "becoming one" again with the other half of his soul or staying besides Shino's side? Or something entirely different?
I'm also curious how much pain he can feel, when he was stabbed in the shoulder he clearly was in pain but he could touch the fire without much of a problem... And what does it mean his hands are cold while Ao's hands are warm?...

Adorable episode, Kaho is so cute and Shino is so kind to her.

When Ao showed up at the end of the episode in front of Kaho with that ominous music I was so scared that something bad might happen to her but thankfully nothing happened and he managed to actually look kind without an undertone of threat.

What interested me most about this episode was the fact that Sousuke is "cold" and Ao is "warm" and that makes me wonder which one is the true"Sousuke".

Shino would need to find the shadow to take back what he stolen but i guess isnt need for that since the shadow follows Shino XD

I'm relieved that Shadow Sousuke has a kind side to him, I was frantically thinking about what he'd take from Kaho when he appeared.

Aside from this episode, when did Sousuke's shadow introduce himself as Ao??


Was this the first time or did this happen in the first season and I just missed it?! If that's the case, can anyone tell me what episode it was?

Koha is so cute I wonder when that one boy is going to confess. But this was a good ep i was thinking that Shadow Sosuke was going to harm her but then when he didnt i was like okay that isnt as bad. But i hope we see Koha again.

Wow, this is one of those series where the second season is better than the first...I'm really glad to see how they're patching the conflicts and purpose along.
I also love the fan service ;)

Kaho is so cute, she just gives off this feeling that makes me just want to protect her.

I really like the side story with the bun shop, the old man was looking out for his family even after death and wanted the business to be successful for their sake.

It was interesting when Kaho ran into Ao. Although he's probably up to no good, he doesn't seem bad or a villain. I also thought it was interesting when Kaho said that Sousuke's hand felt cold, yet Ao's felt warm.

It was hard for me to get into Hakkenden initially, but I'm starting to really appreciate and enjoy the slow and slice of life pace. At this rate I can easily see it being in my top 5 this summer.
