I admit that the final, has mitigated my dissatisfaction created by the dwell of the matter in which the group of Yu was involved in mid-narrative. Overall the episode was very pleasant and the final melodramatic, does not that put the icing on the cake. Good as always the seabed, much less the drawings. Promo very interesting, Yu already shows its power? Exhibitionist! XD

Studio Wit never ceases to amaze me when it comes to their animation in this show. How high is their budget? 500$ per episode? lol All those non-moving pictures in the fighting scenes. But they moved some hair! Amazing, rofl.

Really don't understand Mika's attitude.

What's wrong with him getting all arrogant and hating humans so much.

Someone explain why he's even down for killing humans. Wouldn't he have grudges against vampires instead?

Why has he turned against humans? -_-

For me it's so counterintuitive.

He's arrogant because he knows he's powerful. Plus he's been around those vampires for 8 years. It's not his fault.

He hates humans because of something that will be shown next episode.

He has turned against humans because of, like I said, something that will happen next episode that the humans have done.

Mika has issues against both humans and vampires, it's not something exclusively directed to humans. It's just that he's stronger than most humans now so they seem to bear the brunt of his hatred.

Well.. I heard the manga is A LOT of better than the anime, I guess when I'll have time I should read it.
Anyway, I'm actually liking the story even thought I don't like vampires in general haha
Mika's attitude is pretty understable since all the bad things that happened to him.
I can't wait to see how Mika and Yu's reunion will be

Man they love taking their time in fights don't they? Who the hell talks that much in a fight? Would've been so much better if it had more action and way less talking :/

It was kind of irritating to see the effect of that back fist in slow motion, really takes away from the power of it imo.

And he finally stabbed Guren, I thought I'll have to wait another 5 minutes for that! Hopefully next episode will be better.

He says in the manga he hates both humans and vampires. He is a lonely existence because he hates both and he is a vampire but not a full vampire because he refuses to drink human blood.

I guess that's natural just think it like this: You survive to live with the killer of your entire family and are forced to live with him everyday. You go through hell with pain because you crave for human blood. You blame yourself for what happened and you suffer alone for years, you stop crying and you focus only in finding your last remaining family member. While your bff went away and actually got some decent parental figure (Guren) and friends, you got stuck with your enemies and you were always alone enduring pain. Your bff never came back for you but you dont blame him because you know he didnt know you were alive but deep down you feel sick with humanity because you know there were a lot of humans alive fighting against the vampires and they never once tried to save you or the children that live as livestock.
Although the reason stated for Mika in the manga why he hates humans its mostly because they did experiments on Yuu making him...well you'll see in next episode...
I'd say Mika has enough reasons to want to kill humans. Even though never once he did with pleasure like the other vampires. If necessary he will kill humans or vampires (you'll see in the manga) but if possible he will avoid it. Mika hates humans but he is able to protect humans if that means Yuu will be protected... (to see next episode lol). Anyway humans arent as innocent as you think...

So this one is turning into tokyo ghoul 2. I'm talking about that garbage animation and how the show's turning to shit. If I wasn't so close to finishing this show, I would have dropped it just because of the last 2 episodes.

exactly my thoughts.
How come a studio backed by Universal cant afford or are to lazy to actually animate fights instead of a bunch of still pictures. This is just a fucking joke animation wise.

That was better than last episode. Still, the action in it is... Well, at least it improved.

Honestly, I don't care about Mika and Yu's reunion, I must be the only one. I feel like it is going to cliche.

Most of this episode was sorta lame. Enjoy it to a point but they just kept talking and talking without really doing anything...
Fights were alright through most of the episode but what really stood out was definitely the last few minutes. Holy damn!! First one MC gets stabbed.. and the ANOTHER MC GETS STABBED!!!!

Did anyone watch CinemaSins' video on The Battle of the Five Armies? Well, they talk about how on multiple occasions, someone's about to get hit/stabbed/killed and someone else comes in at the last second (like, from nowhere) to save them, by blocking the enemy's weapon with his own, or whatever.

This episode was like that.

+The ending. My God.

-The animation. The scene with the horde of vampires versus the soldiers was basically static. What a strange choice.
-Too many last-second saves

I am looking forward to the next episode, though. It's still better than the manga... although, I haven't got this far in the manga yet xP

I think the manga is actually better, mostly because of what you say... the anime is not very animated. There are too many scenes in witch they do pretty much nothing but talking. You don't really mind that in a manga but in an anime is kinda boring.

You know, you may be right. I've been saying that the anime is better (and I still think that overall, mainly because of certain additions and pacing), but the lack of animation in this episode especially (when there's been so much in other episodes) makes me want to see how these scenes played out in the manga (I'm only three volumes deep).

I'll have to get on that at some point.

I want to know why he isn't just on the sidelines, munching on some popcorn and watching the two groups he hates kill each other. Why does he pick a team? Because no matter how you swing it, picking up his sword to fight humans and NOT vampires makes me think he hates vampires but still hates them less than humans. I mean humans experimenting on Yuu is one thing. Vampires killed his family, the director of his orphanage and probably everyone he knew as a child. One sort of outweighs the other. I know if it were me, I'd be kicking some vampire tail.

He can't practically just kick some vampires ass since we know that he is very dependent on Krul's blood which is the queen of the vampire in Japan. If he betrayed the vampire, he will not be able to have a source of blood and ended up as a demon, not also able to save Yu. In the end, it will be a big lost to him if he did that.

This is because of WHY he hates them. He hates the vampires for what they did to his family. But if he had to choose which side he's safer in, it would be the vamps' side. Why? Because
1) The humans experimented on his family
2) He genuinely trusts Krul and sees her as a sort of surrogate parent.
3) He's a vampire. He would be tortured if her was taken to the human side.

So far I like where this is going but I'm disappointed no one has died yet. I mean come on, someone always saves the day and 95% of the time it Yu.
Stop trying to make him look like a 150% bad ass, it's annoying.

This is a full fledged war and it's completely unrealistic that not one of his comrades have died. Even his friend gets saved from being coming a demon, so typical.


So far, average. Stereotypical and fan catering to the fan boys.

So much Mika dick-sucking in this show, its getting obnoxious. So many meaningless and unnecessary flashback scenes just to try to drive down even further how gay those two are.

Why are the mook vampires so pathetically weak yet are always smiling conceitedly, only to get killed in the next 10 seconds? And the boss vampires are apparently so strong, they can wipe out elite squads by themselves. The humans also seem to be so pressed for personnels, so why isn't this war over already?

They built a giant wall like in AoT. Even flying vampires and and vampires in helicopters can't get past it. It's a homage to the anti-pollution-wall in the simpsons movie.

-I still think Mika will ultimately betray the vampires, and that Ferid will ultimately attempt to usurp power for himself and become the enemy of both sides.

-Nice to see Yoichi, Mitusba, and Shihou being able to hold their own., but Yuu keeps bailing everyone out.

-Guren :O

-Still battle scenes make me sad.
