| they just loli’d the loli… DOUBLE CUTENESS Liked Tohru’s backstory, her dragon form was cute as well |
 |
| Nah man baby Kanna is illegally cute. Baby Tohru too. |
| Watashi wa a victim of cyberbullying. Everyday someone online calls me a "weeb" desu. Watashi won't stand for this. 26 percent of bullying victims are chosen due to their race or religion desu. I may look like a basic white boy, but deep down I am Nihongo desu. Watashi religion is anime. Anata wa bullying me because of my race and religion desu ka? Disgusting desu. Anata should be ashamed of yourself, racist pig. A baka gaijin like anata is probably jealous of my race and culture, cause Nippon is more sugoi than your shitty country desu. Watashi pity anata. You'll never be Nihongo like watashi. Educate yourself on nani a "weeb" is. |
| Tohru's tail as a massage chair sounds heavenly. I need one of those. Baby Tohru was the most adorable smol thing ever!!! Was nice to see more backstory on how Tohru has lived her life and how Tohru's father given her the freedom to choose whatever she wants to do. Festival next week! How in earth did they manage to find a Yukata that fit Ilulu? Seemed like an impossible challenge. |
 |
| Aw... kinda sad they never showed Iruru in the flashback sequence. |
| Aw, the spoiler only makes me wish for more of Tohru and Elma's journey. Well, the anime offers not much of a progression, but a lot of plots. |
Help! I need somebody. Help! Not just anybody. Help! You know I need someone. Helpppppp!  |
| Shouta's father always looks so sketchy. Was nice to get the backstory from the perspective of both Tohru and her father. And dragon Lucoa was awesome. She is massive. |
| Heh, Tohru's tail massage chair seems to be really effective. So, apparently, Tohru's father and Shouta's father are friends, interesting. A lot of insight into the history of dragons especially, Tohru. |

| They acted like diving deep into Tohru’s backstory was a huge development to understanding who she is, but it really doesn’t feel like anything changed. Not her character, nor the way I view her. I liked that we learned more about the Dragon World and what the other prominent Dragons were up to at that time though. |
| Emperor of Demise is actually a pretty decent father. Who would have thought? So... Kobayashi was able to touch and even remove a sword forged by a deity like it was nothing? Okay. Anyways, pretty nice episode. I was never really interested in this show's lore but the way in how it was told was quite fascinating to follow. Same goes for Tohru's backstory. I'm ded  Mod Edit:Posts must not contain more than one screenshot. |

| If there were a magic programming language, I think they could do better than Python. (You can see it's Python when they've shown the screens.) It's not a bad language, but not that special either. Loved this episode though. I think Kobayashi and Tohru both gained a great deal of understanding toward one another. It was certainly a heavier and less comedic episode than usual, but they really did it well and made it work. Also, I think Kobayashi understands Tohru's father a bit better. The chains hang as heavy on him as on Tohru, or even more so. |

| Tohru :Origins was good to see. How she came to be and how her journey with the others started was a sweet memory. Superismaeel said: Also Baby Kanna existed once, let that soak in.  Mod Edit: Posts must not contain more than one screenshot. Best of the bits. She can have all the attention she wants. |

When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| Interesting and very good chapter. Tohru looked adorable in her dragon mode xd |
| Didn't expect Serious Backstory Episode today... Baby Tohru and Baby Kanna. Cuteness Overload.. That's Kyoto Animation for you, there is no Single CGI on the Dragons at all. Absolutely Fantastic!!! I'm bit sad Next week is the Season Finale. But looks like we gonna get OVA as well next year (i read it on wiki) |
 |
| Fantastic episode! Seeing baby dragon Tohru while The Emperor of Demise was telling her story all serious and shit was so cute and hilarious lmao. I love that we're finding out more about the fantasy world, this some good worldbuilding. Kobayashi was right. that was really heavy. Emperor of Demise is actually a good dad though. Can't believe we got an even smaller and cuter Kanna, that's too much cuteness Wady Toohu. Now that I saw the scene where Kobayashi and Tohru met again, Kobayashi pulling out that God sword out of Tohru might become important later on. Looking forward to the season finale. Hope we get a 3rd season. |

| Wow i'm surprised Elma didn't take any offense to Tohru being direct or unknowing about things, But DAMN that dragon tail is not only helpful for serving dragon meat, but as a back massager as well?? Tohru as a baby dragon is just too cute ! It's good to see the good and bad intentions from both factions, after all, no sides are perfect, or perfectly moral, there will always be ups and downs. And this is way more realistic. Critical thinking on point! |

| the lore is too much for drama-slice of life anime. this lore definitely need spin off manga/anime, about Dragon life until Tohru meet Kobayashi, maybe with final battle against Gods ending. I still dont know who is the God who fight Tohru, looking on his trisula probably he is Neptune/Poseidon but why he throwing a sword (probably the sword is Damocles aka Tohru dad sword) or maybe can connect to Damocles lore where is The king is Tohru dad then the Damocles is Tohru |
 |
| this episode was peak fiction |
| y'all should watch haibane renmei |
| For a season 2 some were predicting to be a huge fail I'm pleased to find myself not liking this every bit as much as the first season but actually liking it a fair bit more. I think the show has barely put a foot wrong, and even the content some found questionable I thought was well handled and pretty funny. |

| I actually know someone who's a Scorpio and had to deal with a troll this week. I showed her this week's "Who's Rotten" and she was surprised at how accurate it was. |

| great episode for backstory and GODDAMN LUCOA IS MASSIVE i didnt know kanna could get any smaller lol i want to see more of the chaos vs god faction now too hopefully we do |
 |
| Interesting episode At times, I felt that some of the stories from this season were rushed, so I was kind of surprised that they decided to use an entire episode to do a backstory on Tohru. The story was good, but again, not something I expected from a penultimate episode of the season. Cannot believe we are down to one final episode. Going to miss this show so much. |
| This is probably my favorite episode of the series we finally get some backstory on Tohru and the rest of the dragons, but I find it very odd that we got this kind of episode when the anime is reaching its climax unless they have something special planned for the last episode. I'm still curious to how Ilulu fits into all this, but once again she didn't get any screen time. |

I just wanted to see more of her |

| In this days, I still wondered how the fuck Kobayashi removed that giant sword lmao |
| Another great episode again and this time its about Kobayashi's back and Tohru's backstory |
