| Why would you chase after the ball? Why? |

| Well... I was feeling sort of connection with Junta Nakao when I realized he gets carsick easy. I can relate! But we saw little of him, so I guess it was an easy person to kill during a generally more light-heart episode. |
 |
| okay, for most of the episode I felt as I was watching Free! instead of horror anime, but the action in the end... kind of lame for me, but on the other hand I didn't belive he would die ^^" |
| I could pretty much guess what he was headed for when he went after that ball. Silly boy, don't you know the rules of horror series? Then again, I thought the curse didn't apply outside Yomiyama. xxbluebirdxx said: the dead person must be one of them, which makes the curse work even outside of yomiyama? Aw shucks my bets on the red-head then. |
| Damn that ship in the end...xD I hope Matsunaga will tell them how to stop the deaths. Akazawa Izumi can't die,she just can't!!!! |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| I know how pathetic this is, but I have a thing for Sakakibara's aunt, she's just too beautiful <3 |
 |
| I didn't know watermelon juice can splash out like that lol. At the beginning when the truck passed by I was like.. Okay... is something gonna happen. The whole beginning of the episode was too clam almost like foreshadowing the death at the end. Didn't took me by surprise though. I enjoyed the fan service. Reiko looks really hot in this episode. Daring bikini choice by Akazawa and really kawaii swimsuit on Misaki. Another death meaning another elimination of a potential 'who is dead' student. I wonder who will he/she be.. |

| I felt relaxed and felt some tension in this episode like something was going to happen. Then there was that lovely boat. Anyway, loved the fan service here. Izumi looks hot and cute as always so is Mei. |

| this reminds me more and more of H2O footprints in the sand. it's going towards an 8 for me...very good anime nevertheless...i didn't mind the fanservice and i love the scenery and music |
Sayonara,papa! "Just how a mirror reflects you,people will also reflect your heart." ~Athena Glory,Aria "Whatever happens,happens" ~Spike Spiegel's thoughts on dying(Cowboy Bebop) |
| I freaking knew this was just a red herring! The truck scene was just painful to watch. Seriously anything can happen the moment that fucking truck was going ahead slowly in traffic. Reiko is definitely hot in that swimsuit AH AH AH :) Yay they found Mei out of nowhere in the beach ^^ Seems Mei is scared of octopuses, never knew she can be scared like that! Seriously why would you bother getting the volleyball in the middle of a sea, especially when your trying to break the curse? This is what happens when you let your guard down. And of course a boat comes out of nowhere and drills his body in half. This is some scary stuff. And i can't wait for more!! |
| Because every self respecting anime needs a beach episode..... |
   |
| sh1t just got serious again D: |
 |
| Pretty boring episode, nothing really happens until the end, and who cares about that guy ;D |
| holy shit didnt expect that to happen. but seriously omg is any anime exempt from having a fricken beach excursion. my friend and i were joking how funny ti would be to have one in this show then BAM there is |
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy." |
| DAT START DOE! |
| Wasn't expecting a death this episode, but I really should have been. The OST this episode was really gorgeous, the music that played as the class enjoyed their time on the beach was so fitting. Hoping they can find whatever it is Matsunaga brought back to the school. |
| I definitely saw a death coming. . . but this one is quite shocking. So apparently they're not safe anywhere? |
| poor guy is gonna have to wash his boat. |
 |
| oh come on now, they left the town!! And besides didn't anyone else think shark attack? Come on, anyone? The boat just wasn't as effective. |
 |
| Cause of death: Trying to get back the beach ball LMAO I'm glad the hot guy didn't die. I was kind of nervous when he went in the water to go save the guy who died. |
| Another one's..... My condolences. God will be with you, he'll take care of you my friend. |

| "yeah i know we're all in danger of a curse that is killing people randomly but i'm gonna swim out half a mile into the ocean and grab that beach ball real quick brb" |
| I knew that something would happen, despite the fanservice ! |
 |
| One of the more impressive episodes I've seen in a while. Another is shaping up to be quite the powerhouse.. Awesome Art/Animation this episode, the colors and atmosphere were really vibrant and life like. Definitely one of the best beach episodes i have seen. The fanservice was on point as well (seems a bit odd that the girls are so well developed as 9th graders, even most high school anime girls don't look half as mature). The romantic undertones were subtle but well done with the numerous possible ships. The Hero Matsunaga was cool, but the memory tampering has seemingly prevented him from disclosing what he figured out that would be useful for this years class. That was a long delayed death scene, where you can only shake your head in resignation to the inevitable death.. Easy 5/5 episode, the show overall has my top spot in the thriller/horror department, leaving Higurashi in the dust (if Monster is in the running then perhaps that changes things). |

| These kids cant get a break, they were having a nice day then bam someone dies. that death was really messed up. |
 |
| The watermelon thing was a nice tease. The episode was so light hearted and fun up until the very end... didn't see that one coming. What could that guy have left?!? |
| Nice Boat. But the watermelons were better. |
 |
| No one talking about the Akazawa x kouichi moment in the car???? I mean she literally rejected that other dude in the car to go be with kouichi, and then asked him what he thought of her. OTP confirmed. Also akazawa > mei. The actual episode was ok. Felt a bit slow but at least the fan service was in check. My best guess is that the extra one is They all seem a bit off. |
MsChii said: [color=#00A693] Another died.[/color] I think I just understood the title of this show. This was a pretty fun and relaxing episode, but it was far too obvious someone was gonna die. Akazawa is hot and Mei is adorable. <3 |

wheresthehandle said: hahahah, yep xĐ but it was a nice death and it served a purpose. R.I.P.Lol I don't even know who that kid was who died. |
 |
| I knew that someone would die this episode. Them being safe outside of the town turned out to be a load of bull, as I thought it would. Sadly we didn't get a shark death though :(. I'm also surprised the glasses kid didn't go with them, he seemed like he'd be a lot more involved in this. |
 |
| Well I liked this ep. But I have to say since I read the anime, that it was a pure fan service. Non of this is anime related. Kind of sad tbh. Even If I like the anime more then the manga. |
 |
| I can't believe this show straight out did an actual beach episode. It was kind of fun though, and at least someone died. |
| "This is a brilliant idea." |
| watermelon troll was good wouldve been my fav ep if that ending didnt happen though... o well moving on |
  |
| Knowing the curse exists, why did he go for the ball? |
| lol, at that death that came out of nowhere. Who was that guy anyway? |
 |
| I don't know what to think about this episode. I'll be honest, the first half bored me a bit, I don't like beach episodes in general and it just felt unnecessary. I know the kids needed to relax a bit, but frankly, I don't care very much for the most of them as they're not entertaining enough on their own. Hell, I only remember names of Akazawa (who is slowly becoming my favorite character), Sakakibara and Misaki. The death etc. was interesting and it came off as a surprise, but still, it doesn't change the fact that the first half bored me. It could have been written better, I guess. Oh well, the next episode is looks mighty fine. |
| I enjoyed this ep. Mei looks so cute in her swimsuit.  |
| I don't really understand why that guy died even though they were outside the village?... was it an accident after all? |
 |
| Byebye guy I don't even remember. |
 |
| Episode 08 - Hair Stand: The beginning was something, and we get some fan service, Teshigawara seems to like Akazawa and Akazawa have some interest in Kouichi (she wanted to have Kouichi ride hers cars with her, but then she rides Kouichi car with him). The hint is in the classroom, Nakao death was in the beach outside Yomiyama (so if the curse exist, it can happen anywhere). Why do not they close the school better, or at least class 3? Why the students do not change schools? Families are not worried about them? They have not even asked questions about the recents deaths? have happened five deaths (Sakuragi, her mom, the nurse, Nakao, the boy with a heart condition) 3 students from a single class !! and seems like the families are not really that worried...why? And now they probably are gonna blame Kouichi, when is the school that must respond, or even the authorities, but when they are? 4/5 |
