| That was interesting. Nothing too outstanding but you could admire the art a little. :D I wonder who killed the woman though, seemed to have something to do with electricity but not with Hei. Next episode seems to be kickass, looking forward to it! |

| this was just confusing and weird lol |
Aokaado said: this was just confusing and weird lol Yes it was. There are still a lot of unanswered questions which I'm hoping will be answered soon. Next episode looks like it'll go into Hei's past. Hopefully it will provide some answers as to what is going on. |
 ...even a saint needs a soldier to do the dirty work. |
AnimusNathan said: Awesome. Next ep looks even better >:D. BTW I think the astronomer killed her. Mostly because of the shadow of the killers hair we get, but also because hes holding a gun in the preview. I think you're on to something there.. this ep left me totally confused.. no answers whatsoever.. which I think is really great! keeps me on the edge of my seat :D |
| The guards carried some Taser-thingie, so whoever is the murderer, he/she probably used one of those... But man, I want some more background story...just what have those gates done to the world? Perhaps they have erected some sort of field around the planet, causing the stars to "vanish"? I assume the stars can't simply disappear just like that... I want to know now...Why is there only one episode per week >___< |
| An alright episode. Nothing really stood out except for that thing with Hei near the end. Seems like we get to see some Hei backstory, looking forward to it. |
 |
| We got some MAJOR backstory to both Hei and to the entire thing. Here are the things I think about this episode and lil bits on info that made this the best episode sence the episode before the detective story. 1. We now know that sence the gates came up, nothing has been able to leave earth. All rockets launched go missing. 2. Hei was freaking out at that girl and she had black hair, I think it was his sister that he saw. 3. Am I wrong or is the reason this meteor is so special is because its the only one to have come through the atmosphere since the gates went up? 4. Stickers on your neck do nothing. |

I think you may be right about that girl being Hei's sister. As far as the meteor particle... remember, they also said in this episode "The last time something like this was found, South America disappeared!!" Something major is about to start going down, and Hei's sister will be involved. |

Something major is about to start going down, and Hei's sister will be involved. *Nods head in agreement.* It kind of started out totally out of the blue and actually took me awhile to figure out what exactly was happening. But yeah, definitely a lot of new background information about the series in general. |
| Ahh... Hei looked like he was about to have a spasm O.O" |

     Sig WILL change soon~ |
| Ooooh, noez, Hei was freaking out there! Was that his sister he saw? (covered in blood? not good.) O.O I like the astronomer person (Nick, I think?) but I'm suspecious of him at the same time. Not really sure why, he just strikes me as someone who could morph into a person with bad intentions. |
Loserkid said: I like the astronomer person (Nick, I think?) but I'm suspecious of him at the same time. Not really sure why, he just strikes me as someone who could morph into a person with bad intentions. Yes, it's always like that. When an extremely nice character appears and everyone likes him, the most probably is that he will soon die or turn out to be pure evil ;) |
  The best shape for an angel! ;) |
| An alright episode. Nothing really stood out except for that thing with Hei near the end. Seems like we get to see some Hei backstory, looking forward to it. |
 |
| Yeah, i do agree that it has to be the scientist. It's either the scientist or the Hei's boss. |
 |
| yes hei's boss. he seemed awfully irritated at hei, plus he accused hei because he "saw" him do it. bet he's just trying to cover up his tracks or another alternative: hei is going insane and doesn't know what he's doing because he's very close to the gate (or rather in it) still got my eye on that scientist. there can never be too nice characters in anime like this, they either Lailerosse said: soon die or turn out to be pure evil ;) |
| good episode! i wonder who kill the girl it seems that wasnt hei! |
| confusing ... but okay episode |
     |
| Interesting, I assumed Hei killed her because of the electricity. |

| Next episode, Hei's childhood, hummm... |
 |
| What was up with the sticker? A placebo for Hei? |
suicideducky said: What was up with the sticker? A placebo for Hei? :D:D guess so. :))) |
 |
| I can't wait to find out the full reason behind that gate and what exactly happened there. Next episode looks like it will have some flashbacks. |
| Confusing as hell, all I got from that episode is that the scientist is evil as f*** and that girl was Hei's sister. |

| Hmmm.. someone with the same power as Hei. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |

| apparently Hei saw his sister...:O I dont think it means much since they say a lot of people see things too. Not much in this chapter but some introductory stuff. |

 |
| i have a feeling that was his sis there. but did she say somthing?? |
     |
| Catching ending, I'm so watching Part 2! Hei proves himself as flawless actor again and again. I wonder if there is even one word of truth in what he's telling the others when he talks to them... |
  |
| it's getting exited :D who killed the girl? and why hei is shocking like that ? |
 |
| Great episode, stupid cliffhanger. The world outside the gate looked awesome with all that crap going on, I want to see more of that. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| this one was a mind fuck episode |
| It really looked like Hey killed that crazy girl. Or maybe somebody who have similar power? Anyway, the episode was really good. |
 |
| Great episode, very interesting progress lets see what's next! |
 |
| I am wondering who the killer was and she sure was crazy did she see ghosts or something?? I also think the girl was his sister and she was trying to tell him something only no idea what maybe he kilt her in the past or something. |
| "When a flat-chested loli hugs you, she holds you closer to her heart" "--I am a single bullet. It has no heart. Therefore, it does not think. It just flies straight towards its target."  |
| While watching the dub it looked like Hei's sister was saying "Help me, Hei" But that wouldn't make sense since this was originally Japanese. Unless |
 |
| What was with that Corinna girl? First she's so nice that she talks to Hei on the bus, then all of the sudden when they were waiting she goes insane...and at the cafeteria too. What is going on? I'm so confused. Poor Hei being suspected...that boss of his. And that ending when he seemed like he was hyperventilating D: |
| This episode reminded me of Planetes. xD |

| Hei is great at acting like a wimp I still don't know whats all the deal with the stars and the "gate" and everything else.. hope they explain it all soon |
 |
| I can't say I got 100% of the episode but so far I love it :P Excellent cliffhanger! I really want to know more about Hei's past... |
| yeah I'm pretty sure the astronomer killed her as well so he was seeing a flash back of his sister ???? with blood on her kind of confuses me btw since he doesn't know if she is dead why would the light make him see that ???? jsut his mind i guess since there both group up ( assuming of course she's even alive) idk seems like this Might be the best arc so far Inb4 we find out he killed is sister already and forgot about it |
 |
| At least they are clarifying the plot a little, all this heaven/hell gate and stars is confusing. But I do like the mistery, kinda like SnK. |
 |
| I'm a bit confused after that episode but curious to see the development |
 |
| If Hei wasn't acting when he was freaking out about that girl, then shit's about to get serious. |
 |
| Let me guess, Mina is going to die next? Nothing good ever comes whenever females interact with Hei lol. It's so obvious that Nick's the killer. |
