So Kurumi power are fuckin' overabused that's fine with me, Shido almost got her in the end but... heh she killed herself to prevent it.

Kotori is freakin' Kawaii and look damn powerful next episode seem that it will be filled with hawt girl fighting hard time can't wait.

One thing is, when Kotori arrive in her spirit form Tobichii seem either surprised of shock. Could Kotori have something to do with her past...

Omg that ending yes! Kotori finally showed her true form and wow she looks so fucking awesome. I just love how beautiful she looks in those spirit robes <3 and it seems like she is really powerful as well. Can't wait to see more of her next episode. I am interested in finding out more about Origami's past as well seeing how shocked she looked when she saw Kotori.

Kurumi was terrific too tbh. Damn it why are all the girls in this anime so great.

Epic episode! This series is getting better and better! Dat action!
And Kuromi is so violent (yet very attractive). And her lifespan is tied to her powers.
Mana has also short life given, that's very sad.

Great speach at the beginning during OP:

"It is something that everyone possesses,
yet it's something that cannot be bought.
At times, people waste it or value it or run out of it.
Can you guess what it is?"


Mana has also short live given... that is ver sad.

So Kotori is.. spirit also. And beautiful one I have to say.
But what about Kurumi, is her threat over or would it be resolved next time?

And that school-encompassing barrier - Fate/Stay Night refrence, Rider, anyone?

Aaah, and cliffhanger again! Let's hope next one ends without one or I would have to wait!

Real Kurumi she's dead? Which one is the real one?

Did Kurumi said "Zetsubou"? Together...*look up, look left, look right.. Zetsubou-shita... Anyone? xD
Well, that's a nostalgic one
Also I loved Kurumi's VA from stalker to Yandere :D

Next ep, wow it's Kotori's rape face!

Wondering if Kurumi will be saved or if Mana will just get rid of her. Not to mention Mana looks like a beast in her spirit form :)

And Origami looks shocked?

It's like.. 30 seconds into the episode, and was already annoyed by the male MC bitching. She freaking killed, and almost killed you, yet do you go around asking people not to kill her, who killed many? Sigh, at least the main character in Akumetsu admitted being a hypocrite. This.. is far beyond acceptable, sigh, which is why pussy MC is pussy. I don't think he could give out a reason as to why can't Mana kill Nightmare, except for his self justify "Killing is wrong", typical as hell.

Too fast.. way too rushed.
They skipped the entire fighting scene that happened before Kotori's debut.
Would've love to see them get squashed by Kurumi.. ahh too bad.

Waitwut? What a twist, I didn't saw it coming...

So Kotori is also a spirit. Now we could ask if she had hidden intention by manipulating Shido. Also, she have some crazy eyes in the preview :P

Damn, Kurumi is really OP xD
Seriously, she pretty much have almost infinite clones...
She's so crazy, I love her.

Ok so I dont get it. Since everyone loves kurumi, I'm assuming I am the only one who finds the way she talks absolutely grating. she makes me want to kill myself when she talks.

Wooow so Kotori is a spirit too :D And she seems very strong.
Kurumi is insane,Shidou almost convinced her but then she killed "herself".....
Mana is too gross,it looks like she don't care about what Shidou is saying to her and she kill spirits like nothing....

An overall good episode, but the twist with Kotori being a Spirit in the end left a bad taste in my mouth. No foreshadowing in the past episodes, hell, there wasn't even any in the moment BEFORE the moment.

Hopefully this gets explained in the next episode, because this is looking to be pretty messy.

Kurumi's everywhere lol

Mana was no match for Kurumi this time. She got pawned easily, but lucky for Shido his little girl, Kotori came to the rescue.

Kotori will have some explaining to do.

Kurumi is pure awesomeness, there isn't many characters like her around anymore. (Char design + overpowered powers and personality wise, she is at the top of the tier)

Not bad I guess. Kurumi's character is fairly interesting. Just how is he gonna save her...
Shidou's sister is also a spirit? So what does it make him be? Will they ever explain his healing ability?

Tohko is a bit undeveloped. She needs more screentime.
