Quite an enjoyable episode. Vatler's evil laugh was awesome to start things of. The guy gave a villain aura of more than ever with all that blood over him.

My thoughts exactly. First she stops La Folia and now Sayaka. Yukina is quickly approaching Asia-level cockblocking and it's very annoying. =v=


This! Was hoping for Sayaka and Kojou to get it on since she was supposedly helping out Kojou's mom in the lab. Sadly that didn't last long.

Sayaka ♥
Seems like Nagisa is somehow linked to Kojou's vampire powers. Is she adopted or something, or why is she calling her family members by their names?


Wondering that too, quite unusual to see in anime an imouto not call her brother onii-san. Especially when they adore him like Nagisa does.

I was totally shocked at the beginning because I didn't see what happened after the credits last episode damn Yuma's mother is one evil witch. I can't wait till all the fighting starts and Kojou's little sister is really strong was not expecting that.

So......
Now there appears a kid that is Asagi's child.
So who is the father?? O_O

I'm rooting for Asagi x Kojou. ^__^

Quite the interesting episode, seeing Yuuma's mother, Kojo's mother, and little Natsuki(?) who are now the start of the arc and their conflicts.

I don't know why in Kojo's place, it's too "amusing" in a sort of way XD. Damn Sayaka never knew she go that far until Yukina just interrupted them.

Valter with his demonic laugh, and Kojo's sister... didn't expect her to have some powerful attacks.

Isn't Sayaka sexy? Then again all the girls here are sexy D:

All in all shit escalated very quickly here. Not only Yuuma's mother escaped, but has Natuski's self trapped with that Grimoire, but we have 5 top class criminals running rampant going on a manhunt over Natsuki? Not only that but everybody is not on the top condition to stop them? Oh hell.

Perhaps the most WTF moment was Vatler getting tail-bashed like that by a possessed Nagisa? Ok something is definitely wrong there, and it can only get worse.

Dunno, none of the girls do it for me besides La Folia. Maybe it's because I don't particularly like tsunderes. Dem feet tho. Nagisa is actually powerful. I knew none of the characters would die. Natsuki just got even more loli but why does she think Asagi is her mom? The supernatural stuff in this anime seems so convoluted or maybe I'm just not interested enough to truly grasp the lore.

What in the fuck, how did Vatler got snapped so hard, he even lost a teeth, isn't he supposed to be some high and mighty one of the top 5 strongest character?

On top of that, the girl who did him wrong is Akatsuki's little sister.

Pretty good episode this week, even tho we need more fighting and less stupid love stuff.

Good episode. Kojou's mother obviously knows everything and is trying to help Kojou and company behind the scenes. I'm not sure if the Fourth Primogenitor is still alive, but she certainly exists in some shape or form if she was able to absolutely wreck Vatler in one shot. This is a great arc. Finally it looks like there's a real sense of crisis going on. Also, I'm really not sure why Himeragi is the female lead -- Asagi is much more likable as a character.

Edit: I'd been suspecting this for some time, but I think this episode gives some evidence that Nagisa and Kojou aren't blood-related. First, there's that anime logic of adoption being a common bit. Second, the hair color matches for Kojou and his mom but not Nagisa. Third, while both Nagisa and Kojou's mom call him "Kojou-kun," Nagisa refers to Kojou's mom by her name instead of mom. Not that the harem needs Nagisa, but it looks like she'll end up as one of its members.

The mother is annoying. Another anime this season with a creepy mother. So why did they attack Vatler? And why is the mother living apart from them? And how was she able to use one of the fourth progenitors familiars.

Sayaka thinking that Kojou has a foot fetish was LOL.

I just noticed that MC's moms tend to be some genius in a particular field and has a screw loose but that's just my opinion.

Nagisa unconciously has the 12th familiar and looks like an OP Lamia.

Phew... so glad Natsuki-chan is still alive.

Ooh how did Nagisa come to possess the 12th familiar?

Haha how did little Natsuki-chan get Asagi's name if she had her memories stolen? But hey, see now even an amnesiac little girl knows Asagi's the best girl. You just can't forget about someone of her caliber :D!

Well it's good to see that they're both still alive...for now. I'd be flipping my shit right now if either of them died, or any of the girls from the show for that matter...maybe not the evil ones bent of destruction and murder.

I wouldn't mind being stepped on by a bare-footed Sayaka.

If you look at it carefully, Koujou is actually the weakest character here.. the strongest vampire, the fourth progenitor are all nothing but sarcastic titles.. (the inmates of that silly prison were not intimidated at him at all)

Nagisa calls her mom Mimori-chan...

too many mysteries.. one after another.. too many new characters doing something behind his back.. I seriously doubt this will have a conclusive ending

This episode was ok, Sayaka was cute but then Yukina just had to come in and fucking cockblock them.

Guess I'll continue watching this anime even though there's nothing really interesting about the plot (although what should I expect from a harem anime lol).

These random bursts of fanservice really aren't helping this show gain any bonus points... the misunderstandings are just silly considering all the serious aspects. I used to really like Himeragi but she's just annoying as hell now esp with her incessant senpai calls. This show would actually have a much greater potential if focused on the central plot a little more.

So, who/what the hell is Nagisa anyway? Another OP imotou huh? Or is she really an imotou? hmm..

Natsuki-chan was so kawaii (not that she changed her appearance)... but damn....

Lol'd at Sayaka. I didn't expect for her to offer her foot.

And is Himeragi always gonna interrupt every single good thing in this anime?

Another outstanding episode. Great twist at the beginning. Though I'm not a foot guy, Sayaka was absolutely delicious this episode. +1 for her, but still not quite matching La Folia. Hopefully she gets a bigger role in the next arc!

Pretty good ep. But not enough action.

The reason I think Natsuki thinks Asagi as her mother is b/c Pumpkin head said that Natsuki is her daughter and Natsuki just created false memory of Asagi being her mother. Remember right now Natsuki is a blank slate. Why Natsuki knows her name, ehh, maybe in the back of her head she still retains some memories.

Now here is a theory about Nagisa maybe she isn't Koujo's sister but the actual 4th, body and soul, and changed her body and made a new persona, then just changed Koujo's memories to think she is his sister. Or it could just be the obvious.
