| So much for close sisters. |
| It would probably hurt like hell, but it didn't look too bad as fingernails eventually regrow. I was more shocked by the fact that Mion actually let that happen. |
| Ironically, just watching this episode with its scary suspenseful moments I was biting my nails and then when it got to the nail ripping part I started biting my skin (lightly though, im not that crazy that ill tear it off xO) Wheres Keiichi!?!? |
| I cringed so hard and closed my ears.. That was horrible D; Wow, I'm surprised at all the similarities between Satoshi and Keiichi.. They really did a lot the same. And their confusion about the death of their victims were the same also. Also, the Mion in one of the other arcs is Shion, according to the phone call details. So confuzzling. |

| OMG ... Mion is a monster what Satouchi meant by" he does not forgive me yet " !!! |

loub31 said: I don't remember if they say it in the anime but she says she likes to study myths and such, especially dark ones, and she's pretty much studied up on the curse a lot. It's her hobby she claims, and you can indeed see she knows a lot about it during the second arc when they go into the storage shed with the torture devices.Leon-Gun said: loub31 said: Oyashiro-sama.

| Ah .. thanks |
| Jezuz!!! Poor frickin Shion! and what a complete heartless b!tch Mion can be I personally think Shion should have just grabbed one of the dozens of knives hanging everywhere and killed Mion... but i guess she would have been killed by everyone else in the room sooo... Why not leave and call the frickin police!!!! |
| What the fuck! I feel sick now. I don't think I'll be able to clip my fingernails for a while. |
 |
| The fingernail scene looked pretty painful, but after everything I've seen in this anime so far, that scene was pretty easy to watch. Also, the scene where Satoshi was dragging the baseball bat along the ground down a straight road next to a forest really reminded me of that scene in the first arc, where Rena asks "Why are you doing everything the same as Satoshi?". |
| Some parts of this post may be exaggerated. |

_retro_reactive said: Animation mistake. In The DVD release, as far as I remember, the body found isn't a blonde. It's not even supposed to be a red herring or something thrown in to confuse you, they made a mistake in the TV airing.traed said: I wonder what happened to Satoshi exactly.

| Awwwwww =[ |
 |
| I really couldn't watch the fingernail scene. Also Mion is unforgivable, I hope her and her family get some sort of "retribution" in this arc. |
 |
| Is it just me or is this screaming Shion swapped places with mion? Last episode She mention how she felt satoko was causing satoshi to feel sick? In episode 7 mion mentioned this as she shook the ladder and went into psycho mode. Now in this episode it shows the scene where satoshi asked her to take satoko to the festival and yet again in a earliar episode 11, when keichi asks Mion to watch satoko she talks about how satoshi asked her to do the same thing. am i missing something? |
| That missed fingernail looks very painful.. at least there were only three fingernails to remove.. |
| Oh wow. Now I see how he kills the aunt. Pretty much the same way he did to the uncle but slightly different. |
| OMG that poor thing. Ouch. |

| Nice episode, but the fingernail scene wasn't scary at all but it looked painful. |
| Now we know why Shion had such a grudge. Nice family btw... |
 |
| This is connected to the third arc, the one where Keiichi killed Satoko's uncle. It's because in that arc, when Keiichi was talking to Mion and she said she had this conversation before with Satoshi. We learned in this arc, it was really Shion who had the conversation with Satoshi! That means Shion was the one talking to Keiichi during the third arc! And in this arc, we confirm that Satoshi killed his aunt. To be honest, this whole twin sister thing is confusing. Sometimes, Mion is so strict, while Shion is so free and stuff. That fingernail scene was painful to watch. |
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling. |

| Perhaps it's just me, but didn't we get to actually see who killed the aunt? If you look closely you can see that it's a pretty skinny person with blond mid-long hair. Meaning that the killer most likely is Satoko, if my eyes are fully functioning that is. So that's that. As for Satoshi-kun, wasn't it already mentioned that he did run away from home? I remember hearing about it lots of episodes ago, and also that it was the reason Satoko moved in with Rika-chan. One murder, and one disappearance. That was the original formula wasn't it? Perhaps I'm missing something, but this arc seemed pretty easy to figure out.. |
| Ouch! Fingernail injuries are bad and hurt like hell... I know :( Man, they didn't show what happened to Satoshi like I hoped. |
| During the fingernail scene I was cringing but I was increasing and decreasing the volume at the same time, mostly due to my curiosity and pain. -shiver- |
 |
| This family is full of twisted delusional psychopaths led by the meanest grandma ever. Jeez I don't want to live in this town. |
 |
| Outch that looked painfull, I felt so bad for Shion (and she's one of my fav character that make it worse) |
| Oh god, I had to put my hand on my mouth and hold my breath during the fingernail torture scene. The scene was in my opinion one of the best of the whole anime because it perfectly captured the essence of it. It showed exactly two of the most important thing in that anime : the feeling of despair and impotence, and the stressful anticipation. We all knew that she would get her nail ripped off, but for some reason, we were maybe hoping that at the last second, they say that it's a joke or whatever. We all knew that it was going to happen but some of us might have denied it. That's one of the greatest thing in that anime, those horrible anticipation, the fact that the protagonist seem so powerless to their destiny. That anime is really fucked up. That's why I like it :P I wonder what happened to Satoshi. I'm sure he came back later in the third arc and that it was him at the festival. He must dyed his hair. The Sonozaki familly... I hope Shion go crazy and kill them all. I hate them, a bunch of freak circus psycho. Even Mion, who helped her during all this time, became so fucking cold during the reunion, probably just covering her ass. Also, there is a thought that passed during the episode that is not related to this arc. During the second, the third and the fourth arc, Rika died shortly after the festival. In the second, it was due to Mion and the third and fourth arc, it was due to a mysterious killer. But in the first arc, we never heard about Rika dead and a lot of time had passed between the festival and the moment Keiichi killed Rena and Mion. There is also something that I thought about the Sakoto uncle weird resurrection. Rika talked about ''pre-programmed'' death that are inevitable. What if Sakoto uncle was not programmed and because of that, he didn't die? Finally... I don't know why the fuck I watched this before going to sleep :P |

| Cringed a lot during that scene. And my hope, that deep down Mion isn't a total psycho-bitch was crushed again. |
