@NirvashX1 No anime is scary tho. Dark Gathering, besides the characters, has an interesting story and really cool ghost system, and although I also don't find it scary, it does manage to be creepy, even more so in the manga, the art is just *chef's Kiss*

Another great episode and graduate vs. graduate level fight. With two s-rank haunted areas conquered I wonder what's next but before that I believe Keitaro needs to be cured from that dehydration (or whatever it is) curse that he got by being inside of the boundary w/ that imprisoned martyr graduate's ability.

Btw, it looks like Eiko actually got traumatized so I wonder if she'll be more careful of what she wishes for. Lastly, I completely forgot about Ai and it looks like she's returning based on the preview.

I feel like there needs to be a better explanation of how Yayoi can control the murderous intent of a ghost but only does so on that one.

Anna is such a shithead. I sort of empathize with her motive while also despising her mentality of dragging others down. I guess Eiko with her being shook she is having some Stockholm syndrome going.

Isn't Imprisoned Martyr a little too op? Dude's got immortal body and broken ass abilities.

A bit but I assume he can be killed in the third stage. He did say he was weakening himself. So anyone against him has to survive that much and overpower him unless i assume wrong.

When a spirit possesses something, they feel whatever the thing they're possessing feels. In this case, the Old Old F Tunnel spirit possessed a doll that had nails driven in. This means that the spirit felt those nails and was in pain. Yayoi drove a nail to the doll's head, and the spirit felt that nail being driven into its head. It lost its desires because of the pain it felt.

@InNeedOfAName
How I interpreted it wasnt pain it was only the nail she drove into the head which is suggesting a nail through the brain implying she lobotomized it. I was basically saying it kind of needs better explained why she could do that with this one but not the others that might also be difficult to control.

Another good episode, there were some close calls here, but they all escaped death with a bit of teamwork. At the rate Keitarou will end up dead by the end of the season. Now that we're in spooky month, it really is great to watch a horror, it just feels right.

Big sad for the soldier.

Eiko seems to be very dangerous. Not only does she give backstabbing vibes, but also stockholm-esque behaviour. Feel like she might prove to be lethal or close to it to the team someday.

Thoroughly enjoyed this episode, definitely the most sinister of the spirits so far. So I guess after they visit all the major s-class and higher spots, they'll challenge the god, and after acquiring him, they will either go after the specter or challenge that other one that they had to run from previously.

I wonder how close this is to the manga? Pacing wise this feels like it can be in the middle of the story

Ay Sugimoto the immortal spirit can speaks clearly. While im still surprise about that, the old old F tunnel s-rank spirit get voiced by Yoshitsugu too? No wonder that scream recognizable lmao. After HanaKana, Hayamin, now him? Ok olm...

Fights was cool. More weaker, more stronger the martyr ended up. Needs third stage and flashbang to take down the old old f tunnel meatbutcher spirit. But i can see how martyr immortality works well against the typical fast attacker like that.

Anna unexpectedly turns out clinging to Eiko. While she almost giving a shock to the gang, but at the end welcome to the proxy protector party, you youtuber. Keitaro also turns out have a better reaction. Ofc he can't even avoid that one single bad omen. I blame the author for that xd...

We get a chance to see ANOTHER graduate! This particular spirit was epic, definitely fitting for its history and seemingly unstoppable. However, I think we're gonna see each one go all out on the last fight.

That was one heck of a ghost fight! The Imprisoned Martyr is how you make the best out of a terrible situation. Sucks that Keitaro got caught in his starvation range and now looks like he's on the verge of death. Lastly, Eiko is kind of a saint for still thinking highly of Ana even though she just tried to kill them not even a second ago.

I guess the show is trying to keep the fear and horror up by having the characters always seem to be almost defenseless vs spirits...but seriously, the characters should be making weapons that affect the spirits so they can defend themselves. Like they show salt working, why not carry more salt and freely chucking it on spirits? They got ropes that can bind and touch the spirits, why not weaponize that and smack spirits with rope, or lasso them and drag them around? Or make better weapons, take those spirit ribbons given to them, wrap it around a hammer head, then hammer the crap out of spirits.

There's so much they could be doing to not be totally screwed each episode, but they don't, so they end up almost totally screwed each episode.
