Karura was awesome. Plus it was so cute when she made the necklace for Aruru and Aruru was all happy and shy. Karura is one strong girl.

Interesting new character, she keeps ya guessing. Karura's backstory definitely needs to get explained sometime though.

She puts Sephiroth to shame too XD

Not sure I'm really "in love" with the way this series is going, but it's definitely still entertaining. I kind of wish this whole thing with Karula/Karura had a bit more of a realistic feel to it, since she just seems too good to be true - especially since she appeared right when Hakuoro needs her, and she gets along with pretty much everyone but Oboro (who's overly-suspicious in the first place).

I suppose, though, that this is a fantasy series so... I need to ignore those unrealistic aspects. XD Maybe I'll end up really liking this after all... It'll be really interesting to have Karula/Karura and Hakuoro's backgrounds finally revealed, later on.

Hakuoro seems more quiet in the anime than the VN.

Anyway, my most awaited character will appear on the next ep!

While I really like all the characters so far I think I found my favorite with karura.I liked her interaction with eruruu.Also ether urtori and her have some sort of history or they have a thing for each other cause that scene was a bit werid and fast.

Crazy strength haha! I like Karura already. And omg Eruruu was so adorable when she was flustered, her ears were sticking up. Almost died of cuteness >__<

Think of her like Kagura from Gintama.

I love Karura, probably my favorite in the series. She's so chill and OP. :D

One of my favourite characters from the game, and the adaptation of this episode was superb since Karura's slaughter of the slavers happened off-screen in the game. This also showed a bit more of how she is won over serve Hakuoro. We'll find out more about her backstory and arc later, but she hasn't had it easy up until this point.
Please don't feed the trolls!

At first I thought Karura was some demon or the next antagonist when on the boat, but then didn't realise it was a girl and upon seeing her ears thought she was one of people of yamayura kind which was close. She's pretty awesome gladiator and a nice character introduced in the series which will be very helpful in combat.

Great episode, that sword weighs so much, unless she can glue her feet to the ground she'd be thrown off balance trying to lift that thing.

She's way too strong compared to the other characters we've seen so far. And as she is a gladiator, who I'm assuming don't become one of their free will, means that there even stronger people where she came from.

That was a cool introductory episode to Karura, and that sword looks cool. I wonder if there will be any one else capable of wielding that sword. :)

That is one strange looking sword Karura requested, if you can even call it a sword. May as well have the blacksmith make a giant club or mace :p
