| Yukine needs to calm down. |
 |
| GREAT EPISODE Nice to see kofuku being awesome as usual. Also, anyone else notice the change in the opening? |
 |
| yukine is such an annoying character. I know it's for character and plot development but every episode is just him complaining. He is worse than those rich kids that complain about not having an iphone 5s |

xderaai said: Everyone needs to stop hating on Yukine so much; sure, he's an emotional wreck but if you were dead his age to see on the life you were missing out on, you're probably going to feel pretty messed up too. sigh, but alas people shall always hate the more realistic characters True, Yukine's realization he'll never have a normal life like those kids is crushingly sad, and his reactions are pretty realistic, BUT realistically annoying is still annoying. I don't hate Yukine, I feel sad for him, but in his current state of mind he's still really really annoying... |
 |
| Man that episode was really good, hopefully Yatto will be okay. |
| Still don't like Yukine...If you were the weapon of a God, you'd get getting over being dead real quick. Emotional wreck < Weapon of the God of War...Seriously???!?!? |
 |
| Kofuku was badass! and that ending....asldkjfa;sdgkn;aoweijpt I don't know how I'm gonna last till next week DX |
| yukine is getting kind of annoying .. oh well I really hope they stay faithful to the manga but they are adding a new character so.. eh Im assuming season 2 will have the |

Also, anyone else notice the change in the opening? you guys you should really read from time to time what others are writing as well 1) cause no your not the only one that loves Yukine their still much more and that yukine LOVE/Hate discussion goes on already for at least 6 eps threw it gets annoying -- besides after the next ep the scored is settled anyways on that question and the haters go back too kawaii yukine right !! 2) yeah many saw the changes |
| I really liked the serious kofuku xD And that damn yukine is so annoying here... poor yato :( |
| next episode looks intense |
| Hate Keeps me warm |
| Hoooooly shit. Dat face off between Bisha and Kofuku. I don't really get why Yato won't just release Yukine. Just find another Shinki, god. Who cares about him at this point. Poor Hiyori. I bet she doesn't know what to do when Daikoku put up the borderline. |
| I loved how serious Kofuku was this episode <3 http://screencast.com/t/wiDvZEkoSfUd Dat cliffhanger damn, cant wait for next week! |
My Candies:     |
| I personally hope Yukine doesn't get saved or something and dies and Nora becomes yato's shishinki. |
 |
| I'm getting real tired of Yukine's shit (even though I kinda feel bad for him too)... Hiyori as well, because I really hate those female characters who beat up male characters just because they're "perverts", when they're not. But I'm starting to like Kofuku more and more ^o^ Can't wait for the next episode~ |

crookedQueen said: Kofuku was badass! and that ending....asldkjfa;sdgkn;aoweijpt I don't know how I'm gonna last till next week DX well I think its awesome to can be as patient as some off u --at last now I would read the manga if I haven't done till now to make the waiting time shorter |
| Kofuku and Bishamon seem to get along quite well. Kofuku threatening Bishamon if anything does happen to him.. Kofuku's serious mode. dayum. She's pretty cool. badass performance. Manabu's story, bully/victim. LOL the bully pissed his pants Manabu made the right decision in the end, good for him. Hope everything turns out well for him from this point on. Yukine getting real angry, taking his frustration out on the windows of the school with a baseball bat. Yato getting blighted and facing a near death situation. Daikoku made a borderline, probably to protect themselves from getting infected by the blight or w/e. Hope they can help 'em out. |
 |
| I love how Kofuku's tone of voice changed when she was in badass mode. |
| Hope they don't continue this emo/sob story bullshit for the remainder of the series cuz this is seriously boring. All i want to see is stuff getting cut up and a ball gag in Yukines mouth. |
| Small changes in opening. Great adaptation. |

| best episode so far also i absolutely love the voices of the phantoms, it's so perfect |
| I love Kofuku this episode, she stood up to Bishamon like she's nothing... Can't wait to see the purification process next episode. |

| Loved this episode. The depth that it showed was great. I hope someone saves him. |
| Eh |
| Hopefully this will show Yukine that he does have a friend so we can move on with the trio at least somewhat meshing. The awkward pause with Hiyori peeking up Yato's shirt, and Yato's face lol. OST was fantastic as usual, especially when Yato's blight started spreading. |
 |
| I've been waiting for an episode like this!!! IMO this episode just pushed this show to another level. I really liked how the dove into the loneliness and despair that Yukine was feeling, as well as the struggle of being alone in school from that other kid. I still would like them to tell Yukine's backstory to us though. I'm now very curious to see where this show is headed, because I was beginning to think they would just be fucking around and doing nothing for all 12 episodes. |
 |
| Seems like Yukine finally realizes what doing bad stuff does to Yato and this will be the long awaited turning point in his behavior. Well I can't blame him for being angry/upset seeing all those kids carelessy enjoying their school life and hanging out together but as I said before, it doesn't excuse his behavior. I'm really curious how things will go betwen Yukine and Yato once they sort this out though, we know Yukine is a really sharp and amazing blade but I imagine he'll become even better if they are more in synch? :) |
| Goddammit Yukine. |
 |
| The three characters are in a family relationship. The father endures all the hardships for not being able to provide for his son. The mother tries to keep the family intact after realizing she is really powerless in the situation. The son goes through a coming of age transformation. This episode gives us a good insight into Yukine's mind. He is upset because he doesn't belong anywhere. He can't accept the fact he is dead and longs for the things regular humans have. If you are given the opportunity to become immortal but forever invisible to the human senses, will you do it? As the audience, we show empathy for what Yukine is going through because as humans, we always try to fit in somewhere. If society simply ignores you and becomes ignorant of your existence, it will take a toll on the person, especially if the person has an adolescent mind. We can't blame Yukine when he is longing for basic human rights. If you guys are bitching at him for wanting to be able to TALK to other people besides the same few, why don't you experiment and lock yourself in a dark cave and see how long you can survive without going insane. The world he lives in isn't filled with roses and sunshine, but with spirits literally looking to eat your soul. Refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Silverstein Still, I stand by my point that Yukine is the protagonist in this story. A protagonist has to go through a journey and discover his elixir. Yato and Hiyori doesn't change so much. |

As you said before "you should really read from time to time what others are writing as well" bye |

| Why did that guy put up the barrier at the end? |

xxdeathx said: Why did that guy put up the barrier at the end? So they don't get contaminated. Hiyori is also blighted since she touched Yato when she was carrying him over to Kofuku's. Yukineeee stop your self-pity shit :( jk, but not really. I understand where he's coming from though, and it's to bad that he can't handle his pain and anger differently. And tbh, I always thought Yato exacerbated the problem because he's such a harsh parent master in some ways. But still, Yato kept enduring the pain meaning that he has hope for Yukine to become better. |
| This was a really powerful and moving episode!!!! Especially towards the end! Poor Yato, also i know pretty much everyone does but for some reason i just can't hate Yukine! Yeah he sometimes is a whiny bitch, but its hard for him too and he has some good traits, anyway Yato better live or there is going to be hell to pay! |
| Yukine is such a little bitch, I really hope they just kill him. I'm actually hoping they can't get him the blight to stop spreading just so they can kill Yukine's bitch ass. |

Yato and Hiyori doesn't change so much. Oh wow, I didn't see it like that before but this sums it up pretty well so far not that I think about it. Hopefully Yukine matures more a bit in this anime adaptation with the events that came together from the latest episode. One thing I do want to mention about Yukine is that through flashbacks, he did pass away at an early age so he wasn't give a chance by mature as a human into adolescence. He acts like a kid and is a perfect example of one - a person who wants to belong and have friends. I think the 'bullying' part of the episode reminded him a little of his past. |
 |
| I actually feel sorry for Yukine it's not his fault he is like that :/ He's a realistic character given what he's been through and his age you'd expect him to act out, especially when he doesn't realise the full consequences of what he's doing. Now that he does know what's happening to Yato because of him he might change his perspective. |

| So is Yato going to die? Great episode!!! |
 |
| Only part I liked about this episode was Yuki Kaji's screams of agony.Something about his voice acting when he's screaming/crying seems very amusing to me.Another perfect example would be when he voiced Eren in Shingeki no Kyojin. |
| LOVE THIS SHOW! So do Yato and Yukine not consider Hiyori their friend? It seemed like they were kind of ignoring her presence, when they were having their 'I'm all alone' moments. Or maybe because she still has 'normal' friends in the non-spirit world that they don't count her? |
| good epi. Yukine is that kind of teenager who thinks everything around him wrong is somebody else's fault, never his. I hope he realize the mistakes he made and redeem hinself. |
