....The episode was surprisingly adorable and fine...until the flashbacks ended. I keep forgetting to mute my headphones at the biting scenes. the just sound so damn disturbing. ._.
I was actually hoping it would stay with the flashbacks to explain a bit more.but i guess they really wanna have just that bit or time to torture yui in EVERY episode until the end huh?
a lot of you are saying that this showed us how horrible the mother was to them...here.
Though, the flashbacks in this episode alone didn't have..I don't know how to explain this.
The flashbacks here, in this episode, were not abusive enough to make out the mother, to reflect they way the boys are now. they just weren't good enough reasons to explain their current behavior.
yes, the mother gave one of them the mentality of having to be perfect. but maybe if they showed time skips of how it evolved up to currently, because she had to have done something else to them other that JUST telling them that they are worthless.

with the way that the guys treat yui currently? has to be don't by something other than telling only a few of them that they have to be perfect or their worthless. I was expecting A LOT more mental abuse(like in the previous episodes with the 5 second flashbacks..except worse). the flashbacks in this episode did not show anything of the sort.
These guys, have to have had MENTAL TRAUMA to act they way they do now.
I'm just gonna guess that this episode was suppose to show that they had a "decent" childhood at some point.

Hoping the rest of their pasts can make sense of why they became the way they did, I really don't want to believe that all they have under their sleeve is "waaa mommy was so strict! waaaa!"


They toned down Cordelia.



Speaking of Subaru, when will he get a scene? He's barely there.

Now THIS is what I was looking for. I new their abuse was sooo much worse than the anime was showing.
I'm also watching this only because of subaru.. ._.

"Well, for me, this episode felt really rushed and fast paced that made some scene looked kinda awkward. I mean, Yui would just be flipping through here and there without letting me finish feeling the character's emotions. I didn't enjoy that end scene either."


THIS ^ Hoping to see more for subaru

Cordelia's abuse was very bad which only affects three of them.

Just when i thought this show is improving after watching the first half of it, the biting scene just had to ruin it for me. (i kinda wanted ayato to "save" Yui from Raito's bite though)

No away, Ayato only cares when he's jealous and possessive. However Shuu saves Yui a couple of times in Reiji's route from Reiji. By reminding him he can't kill her.

No they are entitled to be assholes because they are superior beings. If I were some supernatural being that could just dominate humanity Id be treating humans like shit too. Cause for me they would be nothing more than annoying bugs. Thats what people dont get. Do you fret when you step on a bug? Why should a vampire care about some human then?

FINALLY SOME FULL FLASHBACKS! ;-;
Raito, Kanato & Ayato's mom is kinda a huge "b*tch-chan" -__-
Chibi-Shu was so refreshing and cute! ^^
All their childhoods seem so depressing though...

when's it gonna be subaru's time to shine?!



Including this part :
"You are worthless to me unless you are the best. Worthless boys must spend eternity at the cold, damp, bottom of the lake, all alone where no one can help them."- Cordelia to Ayato

Made me sad ,poor Ayato :(

I really wish this would have been a longer series, and instead of a reverse harem "romance" (?), make it an actual horror show. It legit has some creepy and suspenseful moments. Not to mention the atmosphere, art, and soundtrack are marvelous.

I still can't decide if we're supposed to like the guys, or if we're supposed to hate them.

I thought if they showed their childhoods, they'd at least demonstrate Renji's behaviour and attitude towards Shuu... o.o
And with Yui's reactions, she will hardly "end up" with anyone in the anime. In the game, even if not near the end, she at least smiled sometimes (although I suppose no normal person in her stead would). She only makes sad or pained expressions here... Then again, exactly that was bothersome, so I won't complain...

So their mothers were cruel and so in turn are they. Well, that explains a lot.

Then Ayato and Leito tag teamed then double teamed Yui! D: Oh to be her lol.

Great episode. We get to see some very interesting info from this flashback. Like Reiji's complex of not being the 1st son, how the 1st child has her mother eyes and why Subaru seem to be the most damaged from them 6.

I wished for all 3 Cordelia's sons to appear in the underground but Kanato didn't make it..

Scarred for life. I can't watch Free! ever again without picturing Raito in Rei's voice. ._.

He talked about butterflies too XDD.

Am I the only one who laughed their ass off at the biting scene at the end? It was hillariously dumb. xD I wonder if we'll get to see all 6 of them sucking on Yui at once :D

Man, that Raito's preview was sexy o///o (despite his awful personality I just can't hate him because Hirakawa Daisuke + he's really hot ;3)

Nice flashback, it had a good atmosphere.
She is running out of blood


Can she even run out of blood? She should be dead on the floor by now ...

The flashback was finally interesting even if the last scene was the usual og yeha vampires blood let's eat like there are no other human beeings around there.

I just hope I get a few answers to my questions in this anime or watching this is really useless since it did not really hook me in the anime.

doesn't really change how i feel about them but this was a pretty decent episode although 15mins is kinda short to get into their back stories

also seeing how they toned down a lot on cordelia this episode does feel rushed

that ending was way too rapey -_-

was ayato's voice always this deep? i must've not been paying attention lol







but i’ll probably remember over and over again
you were there and everyone else was there

Revisiting this, I definitely underestimated how sinister & warped the brothers' childhoods were. At the time, I didn't really understand the severity of emotionally abusive mothers and the impact it particularly has on little boys.

Maybe I'm developing a bit of Stockholm Syndrome right alongside Yui, but I can better understand how broken they really all are. And as vampires, it only magnifies that dynamic to monstrous heights.
