Holy hell. I just saw Mirai Nikki, now this. My day couldn't have been better.

God. That Takako-girl snapped. Why are you doing this to my Misaki?
Lets list down the people who died.

- Kazami Tomohiko (accidentally killed by Teshigawara) (not confirmed yet)
- Hotel Manager (unknown, stabbed in the neck and burned)
- Mikami-sensei (the guy who hit her with the mop should die)
- The girl with the brother (fell down in that weird position)
- The guy who opened the door and faced the explosion
- And Takako Sugiura (you deserve this, how can you blame Mei without proof)

This is so much interesting. I knew that a battle royale to death will happen to the students of class 3-C. Who is dead? Can't wait for the final ep! Who is the dead person?

Our only guys left.
Kouichi
Mei
Akazawa (strong feeling that the dead person is her)
Teshigawara
Mochizuki

Not confirmed - it's really hard to kill somebody with a light blunt instrument -- unlikely one shot did it.

At this point I really wish I didnt read the manga as the suspense and thrill of whats going to happen next is just not there for me. I do love this show.

Please people stop comparing it to Higurashi. Similar horror elements obviously are prevalent but the depth behind whats actually happening and why it is just doesn't feel as emersive as Higurashi did. Those may be nostalgia gogles though. Anywho, can't wait to see finale.
I'll reconstruct the pieces of chaos so that you may know the truth.

Wow ... just wow this episode has me speechless for words. I just have to say I'm glad Takoko died because when the group was listening to the tape they're concern was not only if they could find out who was dead but if they could really kill that person, when everyone else hears it with a name off a couple "facts" (they are not aware of her sister) they go ape shit and get themselves killed ... serves them right IMO

I can't wait for next week for the finale, god I really dont want this series to end ... but it has to and hopefully it ends big.

man they should really stop releasing the new episodes at night, seriously for me it came out on 10:52pm late at night

i lolled when they were going to check on that guy who fell who was seriously injured and they just walked casually instead of running

dam so much shit is happening people are dying left and right, kouichi is pretty cool standing up for mei, that bitch got hanged and she deserves it trying to kill mei and going crazy, its her damn fault that so much panic was caused and the deaths occurred but it seems like mei is gonna go off to kill "another" to stop the curse and it seems like izumi is going to try to kill mei, next episode it will be mei vs izumi, i just hope kouichi, mei and izumi make it out alive, i dont really care about the rest

That was the most intense ep yet, one after another dying like that was just insane, and there was so much blood from everything including a hit to the head from a mop. The surprising thing abut this episode is that while Takako was convinced that Misaki was the extra she attacked Izumi when she met them at the top of the stairs.
Why did the manageress start killing people? And why did she start with the manager?

I felt like I was watching Higurashi all over again, which is fine since I loved that anime.
I really hope Mei isn't the dead one, I really don't want her to die. :(
Also, I'm really starting to dislike Akazawa because she made Misaki apologize and she said she was going to kill her because she thought she killed her best friend when in reality it was her own insanity which made her get hanged.
I was really sad when Reiko died. :(

Just a small correction (though I do like your theory): it was confirmed in episode 9 that Nakao died because of a cerebral contusion he incurred earlier that day in Yomiyama. It had nothing to do with the extra student being with them.

I know what you mean but dying because of hitting head causing cerebral contusion is highly unlikely as it heals overtime itself or isn't fatal. He could of easily survived if the cursed person wasn't there, and didn't make him swim. If he escaped the cursed person in time he might of become better or had a chance to go to the hospital. People die because of the extra person. If the extra person is there, he will die. It's really not a big deal if he died before leaving town or not what I'm getting at is that the extra one was with him the whole time, and the extra one is known to accelerate death and cause death to close upon people. His state gets worsened along the way as mikami was there the whole team and driving his illness on fast forward. Same as how people die of heart attack, or asthma attack, and randomly out of the blue the phones and the medicine are all just fubar!

That's all just conjecture. And it doesn't even make sense, considering that Reiko hasn't been present for almost every other death, and hasn't even been in close proximity to most of them. People die because of the phenomenon, and the extra person exists because of the phenomenon -- but that doesn't mean that the two are tied together.

My thoughts

Teshigawara - Haha it's just a flesh wound, it's not like you lost your leg there, I've seriously had worse
Mochizuki - You are awesome now, do not die
Sakakibara- You've really become numb to this now haven't ya
Maid - Roflknife, wut, I don't understand...
Asthma Guy - I haven't forgotten about you, I have a good feeling about ya
Kazami - I'm hoping you didn't die, you're in the op and the ed despite not having any appearances
Takako - What goes around I guess

Takako WHY?!!!!! i was expecting you to be dead but you were the most insane one this episode! guess that happens when you become so unstable i can only hope Kazami makes it out of this but shes gone crazy for mei just like everyone else :(, even though this episode was insane My two big WTF goes to why on earth the old lady started to join into the killings and why Mei Didn't tell everyone who the extra is!! she could have stopped all those deaths i really hope she has a good reason for not saying anything.

haven't spoiled myself even though i want to so badly i will suffer a week till the final episode!.

Ok.. So wtf did I watch?
That granny murderer popped up and started to go to hell. Also, those constant blood trails, who's were they? it was NEVER even mentioned who they came from. Things go berserk from here, yet the progression was just so shaky!!! That spectacled blue haired guy who was pushed off the terrace suddenly pops up with stab wounds? From the lady? WHY is that lady THERE?
Is the teacher dead? Don't think so though =/ Another is that girl who fell, how the fuck did she get that much blood when she didn't even hit anyone with her razor?

Most baffling question in here though is MISAKI, WHY YOU SO COOL WHILE DEALING WITH PSYCHO'S TRYING TO KILL YOU? her expression almost never changed, it's like she knew it was gonna happen.

Just how stupid a person can get? This whole episode, I was waiting for Sakakibara to finally ask Mei just who the hell the dead person is and he did what... geez.

And the way he and Mei acted when Teshigawara showed up... You can just guess he killed (not really) Kazami but all they're doing is standing there and calmly saying "It can't be...". lol what?

Not to mention when Maejima was bleeding there helplessly, they were all acting slow and talking. I was like "The guy is bleeding there to dead! Wrap his wound or something!"

To Sugiura, I'm not the least bit sad that you died. To Akazawa, girl I like you (even though you are my primary suspect of being the another) come to your senses. To Mei, fucking do something. To Mochizuki, don't die you are so cute and heroic (though I called you stupid when you didn't go outside as Teshigawara suggested). To Teshigawara, you can be stupid sometimes but you are fun and you mean good so don't die too. To Sakakibara, well I don't have anything to say to you at this point I guess.

And lastly, the-crazy-woman-in-the-butcher-mood-who-randomly-snapped... what the fuck.

Loved the episode but how does it look like Mei was going to kill herself? To me, it seemed as if she was off to get rid of the extra.

Honestly, the only reason for me to believe that the old lady would start killing would be because of the curse. As for Mei, with the exception of Sakakibara, the class probably wouldn't have believed her even if she told them. They'd most likely treat as if someone was pushing the blame onto another person to get out of trouble. Takako gave them a reason as to why she believes that Mei is the extra, so any explanations would probably have been disregarded as an attempt to escape death.

Are you kidding me, how stupid can these students be?!!! Thank god the bitch Takako was killed, I hated her with a passion in those less than 5 minutes screen time. I don't want the lovely Akazawa to turn into another stupid bitch but seems so.
A fucking huge fire in the dining hall and NO ONE notices it literally until a sudden exploison?!!
I loved the episode for all the tension but the things that happened are questionable and I have no idea who the dead one is, a couple of possibilities but nothing for sure. Looking really forward to the final episode.

You shouldn't never mess with a girl who is a brocon. Her love for her lovely brother (even if he was a shut-in) made her go crazy...

Complete NONSENSE!!!


And during all the senseless killing, WHY THE FUCK DID MISAKI NOT SAY WHO IS THE DEAD ONE?!?!?!?

Seriously, WTF???

She's literally witnessing people dying left and right and she just stays quiet....sorry, but she's FUCKING RETARDED....or the dead one...who the fuck knows.

Regardless, this anime took a turn for the worse in my opinion, this was just nonsense killing and all the scenes were incredibly illogical.

This better have a good finale, because this episode was a fucking disaster.

i swear seeing the women holding a fucking knife is not going to let me sleep at all tonight

also the "we're safe" and then open door to find a fucking face there holy

ok so glasses kid got pushed off, girl slipped and breaks her neck, guy opens door and get overcooked and girl gets herself tangled in i guess wires and got hanged.

This is all happening in August? right? nothing else happened and no one else died in the month before the trip right? thats 4 died so far plus 2 that were unsure of the asthma attack boy and the boy who got stabbed.

I heard that there was a certain amount of deaths in august

Anyway way the episode made me like freaked out which makes this an awesome episode. Next week the final ep.

Well the setting was stupid to begin with so it's nothing new I think.
The extra one, people getting killed for no reason, memories getting modified, Misaki being able to see death with her "special" eye, etc.
There are so many deaths every year and no one even tries to do anything about it. You can just close down that damned school building and destroy it to stop the calamity for example.

for the spoiler,


for everyone who thought Takako attacked Izumi first, you're all wrong.. she just seemed to be pushed because she's in the way (the scene was cut because it panned towards Mochizuki and Teshigawara's scene).. obviously, Takako pointed her weapon towards Mei..

for everyone who thought that this ep isn't realistic enough for their tastes, of course it isn't realistic.. having the curse take action on anyone to make them all work towards the path of being insane and make them unlucky would definitely look retarded in our eyes as that's what it meant to do.. a thing to point out though is that it really is quite ridiculous how the anime could abuse this rule.. convenient for them.. and this is the one i'm complaining about..
