My first episode i've picked up in over a year and i still remember everything about this show. Proof of how great blood+ was.

This episode pretty much tells everything also so its a good pickup point as well ^_^
So much suspense for such a big show its so good!

This was a pretty good recap episode. It told us most of Sayas past, most of which we already knew.

I am so happy everything is coming together so well--the back story, where Saya and Diva came from...
Haji must have been so heartbroken during Saya's break down, we finally found out what happened to his hand too. I'm surprised that Saya didn't really react to the fact that they selfishly and prematurely woke her for the Shield's own means, thus resulting in innocent deaths and Haji's injury. I still wonder why his hand can't return to normal though, and I wonder if I'm right in thinking that the promise involves someone dying... :p

This is definitely going to be one of my favorite animes ever depending on the ending!

Side note: did anyone else feel really bad for Kai when everyone was on one end of the street but him? I think that visual representation will be really telling for how everything plays out...The characterization in this story is amazing xD

Crap...they really did purposefully raise them differently as an experiment. Joel I got what he deserved...

I don't like that promise that Haji made though, I think I know what it was...
Please don't feed the trolls!

So all of this is basically Joel's fault. The Diva they fight now is the product of Joel's sick experiment.

Almost everything is unraveled, and yet the story hasn't lost its captivating touch. Now that's what I like to see in an anime. I think I might end up giving this series a perfect 10 at this rate.

Wow this was a really good episode. That diary pretty much summed up everything. It sucks that Diva lived her life as an experiment rather than a human being, which explains why Diva is the person she is today.

Berserk Saya was awesome!

Episode in which the plot is all time in the past, very interesting.
The narrative is almost focused on Saya and his flashback, it remains only a question mark; Diva will have to do what? I do not quite believe it because so far, has not mentioned anything about the event. In addition it must be said that Anshel was the one who was devoted to Diva, very suspect this thing!
Intense, no doubt about it! * _ *
Designed quite well, the profound message that this show is always the same: Men are never their cabbages and should ask themselves before experimenting with a reasonable period of time, the questions in advance about the issues and not after! ^ ^ "

I dont' know why she went berzerk, but at least now I know how.
That chiroptera carrying two eggs, which spawned into perfectly human baby-girls is weird, but perhaps it's because they had been fed human blood. And thus they developed into seemingly human organisms.
I don't get why humans, injected with serum turn into monsters, yet.
I have to commend this show for keeping equaly paced plot so far. Even eps w/o action are intense. No filler or fanservice is also refreshing.
Hell is empty and all the devils are here.

I can't feel much more than pity now for Diva, She wasn't chosen to live a happy life, instead, she was chosen to be an experimental toy... I don't even want to think about what horrible things that she might have gone through at the hands of Joel, her resentment for humanity and well, her mental instability most likely stems from what probably amounted to torture...

Yeah, everything was a bit confusing before, but with this episode it finally clicked.
