| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I think the show is getting better now, at least it's fleshing out some storytelling about certain characters like Ririka. Felt bad for her past though especially since her happy days are far gone now. If only the pacing started this slow from the beginning Being an orphan isn't easy for her although she still had her "Bro" at the time. Bit of a creepy episode. |

| Honestly big-boobs does more for this story than anything else. No idea where this shit is going the boring exposition is hard to follow and the utter exclusion of the main characters are both a pro and a con because for one there are unbelievable annoying when there are present and the other supporting characters are completely uninteresting. The dialogue seems weird and out of place even when the message seems simple enough. The premise seems hesitant, I mean this is basically a supernatural mystery of some sort, right? But with the exception of some happenings it seems more implied than actually shown, which is fine, some stories simply express their features at later times, however the mystery aspect is, as in most anime, severely lacking. I keep hearing names and words that I'm sure represent something that exists within the context of the story (as "watch out for shadows" as said from a character in Babylon 5 didn't mean the phenomenon that occurs with the obstruction of light.) Perhaps I wasn't paying enough attention but if you're going to mention something, especially something of later importance, be it words, characters, names, stories or legends, there is a way to convey that so both the audience remembers it (at least when brought up again) and gives them some incentive to dedicate more time into something. This has turned that into a chore by wasting so much time to show the audience that there is either there is something off with one or more of the characters or there is a greater, perhaps sinister power at work behind the scenes. The amount of interest in this series closely reflects the current picture count and their subjects on Gelbooru. That's not to say a series is only as good as the hentai it has but there isn't really much grabbing my attention here. |
| An improvement over the first two episodes. I'm still not overly convinced this show will turn out good in the end though. |
| Surprisingly a lot better than the last two episodes!! I really did have high hopes for this anime, so I'm not going to drop it. Hopefully it gets better with the coming episodes, because based on what we've gotten so far, the episodes do seem to at least get a bit better each time. This episode was definitely an improvement. I really do like the opening, too. |

| AYYY LMAO Well that was a god damn great ending to an incest story. |
 "Your sight, my delight. Will you marry me?" |
| I liked the backstory about Aria, and the report at the end about the mass suicide was interesting, but other than that I didn't really care for the other things that occurred within this episode. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| I fail to understand what learning about this girl's brother issues added to the story. It didn't make her interesting. It has no ties to the main plot. It has nothing to do with the occult. It wasn't entertaining. You could have cut it out and nothing would have changed. On a side note, I just finished rewatching the first Danganronpa anime. Funny how that botched adaptation had more characterization and intrigue in its opening episode than Occultic had in three. |

| So far not dropping. Well, as long as it doesn't end up like Occult Academy, i'm fine with it. |
 One man is no more than another, if he do no more than what another does. |
| LOL I felt like I was watching a show about a incest-necrophilia relationship of a mentally ill little girl.The tranny guy looked a little suspicious when the boob girl left his club.Now I'm interested in the incident about that mass murder.That was better than the first two episodes. |
 |
| That big brother corpse though! I'm guessing everything will start making more sense as I continue watching. |
| Decent episode, Though I don't think there was any progression in the mystery, Either that or I missed it. There's a lot of stuff that's going on right now. I find the otaku detective to be a really fun guy, Watching him is fun. Ryotas and the cafe owner are affiliated to something. Interesting backstory about Aria, I actually didn't realize it was her until the very end when they mentioned the name change. That reality check and corpse change though. That demon appearing in MC's dream was kinda scary. xD Wonder where we head from here. |
 |
| This series just improves itself with each episode. If this keep up then 6th episode will be actually good. |
| "I'm the detective in your Manga". Oh yeah, that's right. Now the problem got more interesting. And now adding some other "Topic" about Aria's backstory. |

| More character's background story this episode. Gamon had gone crazy. (His voice sounded different when he woke up...?? Just like how that big brother voice changed a bit after Aria collapsed) |
| how the hell would you make a self-transplant of kidney all by your own? thats plain Lunacy lol as for the rest of the episode was pretty good, so it looks like Watermelon Airhead-Chan goes serious when needed... i wonder what was that call 4/5 |
| "We could make the world better, but it's easier to just shut our eyes." ~Blackwall |
| The detective guy was awesome in this episode. Gamon going crazy. That big brother corpse, wow that was fucked up. Other than that, i reserve judgement for everything else in this episode since it was basically mysterious phone calls, spooky unexplained shit and no revelations. |
| the hell, they already telling that brocon story on previous episode right? why we have to listen this again with different POV but pretty much have same story? And the mystery/murder keep poping up without any analysis or explanation. that hishigawa murder, chican disappearance and now 51 murder that the logical explanation I can find is the alien did that. |
 |
| Great ep, detective faces off against the art woman, more backstory on the brocon who is the curse girl and ryotas and bar master are definitely in some shady business :O The mass bodies are an experiment to form a spiritual connection. Gamotan losing his calm and a devil brings him back?  |
 |
| What is wrong with the noses? While everything looks just good, all noses are drawn just weird. Anyway, another great episode. |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| Okay, things are starting to come together ...I think? Kinda? No, still have no idea how the fuck this all pieces together. I know there are only 3 books of this series so far, but the anime better have a resolution that at least wraps up the main points. |
| So, she did not only nearly commited incest, but also necrophilia. That girl definetely needs Jesus. That kid at the beginning had some serious rape face. Poor Chi-chan :´( I wonder if her dissapearence has something to do with the assassination of the professor and those 51 corps who appeared at the end. Detective guy still best character so far. |
 |
| Dont know why people are saying this is getting better its a total clusterfuck. The Director should be ashamed of such shoddy work. Still here in the hope this confusing mess sorts itself out. |
| I am loving how creepy and messed up this series is lol and everyone seems to be more than they appear to be which I LOVEEEEEE The backstory for the girl that curses people was fucked up in more ways than one though and that ending was just insane lol....Also the bits with the detective and the dark haired girl was 10/10 Can't wait to see where things go from here and I am thoroughly enjoying all of the horror and mysterious events from this thing |
Daniel_Naumov said: Was supposed to make you sick looking at her, but well, different cultures different standards. She will not be the top winner in that nomination, that is for sure. And the whole show should have not had the ;, associating it with Steins;Gate etc. is a little... cringe inducing. I know what the purpose is. My question was why did this episode spend about 1/4 of the runtime showing me that? It's not connected to anything going on at present and it didn't make the girl interesting. Also, have you not seen any of the non-Steins;Gate semicolon anime? Chaos;Head? Robotics;Notes? Plastic Memories (not really semicolon, but it was written by the same dude)? Any of the Steins;Gate sequels? The shit of this franchise vastly outweighs the good. |

| Interesting episode. Argh that creepy smile at the start. Still wondering what happened to Chi. Shun is a pretty good detective. Slowly putting things together. That Ria/Arai flashback was really creepy with the reveal that her brother has been dead for over a year & she's been living with his corpse. Yuuta is getting freaked out. That Demon looked scary. WOW 51, maybe 100 bodies found in the lake. This is going to be chaos. |

| More and more it seems that whoever wrote this show was mentally ill... We got another mindfuck this episode but it slowly turns into clusterfuck instead. Storytelling is really messed up here and the director is doing his job very very poorly (still wondering myself how he could do something like KimiUso when this is such a failure... and no, I don't think that randomly putting in every occultic theme to let viewers talk about how this show is magnificiently deep, make it anything close to good. Or do people actually enjoy watching bad and incoherent trainwreck shows? Really, this will be even worse than Mayoiga in the end, mind my words. |

| Best episode so far-her backstory was pretty interesting. Wish they would do more of that kind of stuff and expand on the characters. |

Also, dunno why they even mentioned it twice, first in the previous episode and now here again.. messy production process or original writing I guess? |

I love the Monogatari series and would agree it's 100x better than this show, but compared to the last two episodes this was a lot more interesting. I still don't think the show's going to be able to pull itself together but we'll see...... |
| Quite a lot of talking again and most story lines progressed a bit but it's still very confusing. The storyline which I care about the least is the reporter one, I don't know where that one is going. I don't think the show has improved a lot so far but there was a Lupin III reference in this episode has that going for it. |

I agree, if I have to judge, this was the best episode so far, that's true (the truth is it wasn't even hard to be better but well..). But at this moment I really don't know what would need to happen to make this show shine in the end. |
| This is still a huge clusterfuck but at least it's somewhat more followable. At the very least, I find it somewhat intriguing and want to see where it goes. |
Daniel_Naumov said: Chaos;Head was probably the first animation I've watched deliberately by myself on the internet. It was not judged since... well. Robotics;Notes felt good as it emerged, but by the ending it somehow lost original space-shine and began to be a mere insane terroristic mechs, which still was not all that good. I still treasure it as a piece of Steins;Gate universe and a good science fiction man they could have done such a better work destroying the moon? Come on this is big pull it with THE IMPACT!!!... Plastic Memories was a decent teenager drama that did not really have anything outstanding but neither lacked in something. This... this is about how popular culture destroys originaly amazing things. Or so it seems so far. Regardless of whether you think those shows had worth or not, the point is Steins;Gate is the only one you remember and what everyone else remembers. Why? Because those other anime were so lacking and forgettable that no one acknowledges their existence. And even then, S;G hasn't had a good run of it since it exploded in popularity. First there was that godawful movie that was basically cheap fanfiction combined with sequelitis and now there's all these spinoffs that remind me of when Silent Hill lost all its dignity. Oh, and IMPACT is lost on me. I don't care and have never cared for the mecha genre. Mich666 said: (still wondering myself how he could do something like KimiUso when this is such a failure... I don't bother to look up who makes an anime until a couple of episodes in because that causes people to judge the product by the people behind it over what it actually is. |

| I was a little thrown off because they did show here brother to be dead for that long. That cafe owner is defiantly involved in something with how they were acting. |
| ---------My Profile------------ |
| this ep is another Bullshittery again are they gonna really ruin the hype of BF1 for this |
| The current game that i play: Azur Lane :3 |
| The pace is now quite good. Finally we reach the point of mass suicide. I didn't expected it to be happen in the 3rd episode itself. Good episode. Seriously, rating should improve. |
 |
| That clown mask scared the hell out of me. Mass murder :0 |
| Better episode than the previous two. This getting more interesting so far although a bit confusing. That creepy backstory of Aria, though |
 |
| Things continue to slowly come together. Detective guy is much smarter than he lets on, believing someone is copying that one girl's manga. She may possibly be a suspect, or perhaps even the key to catching the murderer. Another guy that knows more than he lets on is the son, I'm not sure what he knows, but because of his relationship with the victim he may be very important later down the line. Ryouka has a serious side to her, surprisingly. Could she be/connected to the voice coming from the main guy's bag? Speaking of the main guy, I'm really interested to see what happened to him after that cliffhanger. The back story to that girl was interesting, and it helps flesh out her character as to why she can see a ghost, who is clearly her brother, and why she acts the way she does. A very creepy and disturbing back story, clinging to her brother after the death of her parents; seeing him as a guardian, protector, and parent. It's too bad to see her bullied and sexually harassed by teachers. I'm excited to see her role in the story. Again, I think things are coming together in a much more coherent way than episode 1, but I think we need to start moving things along here. Unless of course this is more than 13 episodes, in which case the pace feels fine. Finally, you have to wonder where mass murder comes in to all of this. It's quite the curve-ball. |
