| Everyone would not be able to accept it so easily, if they were told that the culprits are vampires. I wonder how Masao will behave like now that he's a vampire? Would he see it as a chance to have his revenge against all those that he thinks they have mocked him or will he feel regret for having to kill humans to survive. Megumi on the other hand, doesn't seem to mind killing humans one bit. But Masao has been given a more complex personality, so he could be the one... Anyway, great ep just like all the rest. And oh look, yet another character with funny hair, Toshio's mother... But I got used to it already. I think it's about time the villagers start fighting back... Although there's probably little that they can do against such supernatural opponents. And what's up with Tatsumi being able to get out during daytime. Is he not a vampire? |
| Signature? I ain't got no signature! I don't need no signature! I don't have to show you any stinkin' signature! |

| They're getting closer and closer to the truth, so they probably'll be killed soon, lol |
| Why! why did that thing had to be one of those who can come back from the dead. I can't bare watching it. And did you hear that stupid scream when that vampire first bite him. WTF was that, you gay fagot? I swear my hair rose up from disgust. I felt like throwing up. The doctor will have his confirmation when he sees how the situation of that woman is progressing. Natsuno tries to find proof too. I wonder how it would develop in terms of telling the villagers or not. I like the fact that we got at least some explanation about how they are doing things and about not everybody rising from the dead. I wonder what is it that makes some of them rise and some not? garfield15 said: kodial said: I haven't read the manga or anything, but I was just assuming he was a Daywalker.And what's up with Tatsumi being able to get out during daytime. Is he not a vampire? That's kind of stupidly convenient. Just because someone decided to create "Blade" and call him a "daywalker" for some action and fun, are we now gonna have "daywalker" as an establish term for a new kind of vampires in every series?

Especially since Tatsumi knows they're going to dig up the grave ...and he can run around in daylight. He looked pretty serious about this vampire business. if tatsumi thinks smart...I predict he will put back the girl in the coffin, to try trick them into believing they crazy That isn't gonna work. Her corpse can't be there because when they open the grave the sunlight is gonna hit her. Except if they have some way of making a fake corpse. But that will seem a little too much. |

Also, Megumi died a while ago. Even if her body was there, it should be somewhat decomposed. If she is just in a coma-like state, that would also be suspicious. I am wondering how, with everyone so close to the truth, this will be 15 more episodes. |
| Tatsumi's hair design is win. :) I was like, "UGH"! when they came back with Masao. As everyone else said, thank God he isn't as annoying as he used to be. But I was laughing and nodding when this guy was actually afraid and owned for once. GOD I am falling in love with the opening and art. It's just amazing to me. This episode was short, but makes me gripping the edge of my seat at the cliffhanger. 'Can't wait for more! |
| He's back! OH YEAH! kodial said: I wonder how Masao will behave like now that he's a vampire?

Megumi on the other hand, doesn't seem to mind killing humans one bit. But Masao has been given a more complex personality, so he could be the one... My exact thoughts after finishing the episode. As a human he was rather weak minded(I guess you could say), so will this really change anything? Not to mention, he drank from the glass instead of biting that poor kid. |
| Masao will make the perfect first kill, and a vampire as well. That is if he becomes a bit less of a coward. Essentially the perfect villain. Vampire 101 but we learn the main family is special AND ruthless it seems. Oh and the guy i actually like didn't raise *tear* Waiting for another Megumi appearance! |
| why of all people did he have to come back? sigh.... at least the doctor has finally gotten the clues together. |
 |
| This series gets more interesting every week. Love how they explained how the people learn to accept they're vampires. But what's with the black eyes and them having to act creepy? Have they been hypnotized? |
| Somebody please cut off Masao head! xD |
| lightness vs. darkness Nani mo kamo wo hoshigatteita Mayoeru mono no chikai Mada miru sekai o tsukuridasu koto Kuchi hateteiku |
| Pretty slow, but good episode since it really explained something about becoming a vampire. Though I'd have preferred anyone but him/her/it coming back to life. Hopefully next episode has some progression on the human's side. |

Did you guys see his face when Tatsumi told him that his nephew died and didn't have a "splendid chance" to become a vampire? It was triumph, happiness or simple joy over the thought that the person he deeply detested finally disappeared. He wasn't scared of that death, it wasn't just dirty thoughts in his head, he didn't regret or mourn. No, he's not gonna become more "human" now. He's on the way to become a very best villain, I feel. |
| Amazing episode. So Masao died and then revive. O.o We're knoing more about whats really happening. Is really Megumi on her tomb? |
Kanade-chan said: Masao drunk his first blood ^^ but from a glass XD Good to know I'm not the only one who loled on that xD Meh, I don't feel sad or anything for Masao. Why can't he just die and stay in his coffin >:| Gah, the wait is killing me. |

| it started off really slow, but now it has become my favorite anime this summer xD I just hope it doesn't end like in the novel. But well the novel itself is quite different from the manga so... |
 |
SoraKuro said: now it has become my favorite anime this summer xD me2. I LOVE how it's paced and executed. |
  |
| The more I watch the more I love this shit. And what will be the worst scenario is that Masao having a changed of heart as a vampire T__T |
 "A Legend is but a tale of a beautiful lie." |
| If you guys are wondering where can they find from Megumi's grave, if its according in manga, what they find in the end is....*Shee...That's supposed to be a secret* |
 |
| Just awesome! The best episode so far, I'm dying to see what will happen when Natsuno and the others dig Megumi's grave. I almost certain that the next episode will be even better. This show keeps getting better and better, the atmosphere is great, I'm glad that I didn't dropped it at the beginning. XD |
... |
| This is still quite good. Not as awesome as I thought it would be, but... good. Maybe the problem is that i neither like the art-style nor vampire stories. |
| Interesting episode. Still can't stand that there Masao, urgh~ |

|
| i feel bad for kaori. :[ megumi didn't give a flying shit about her & yet she's being too good of a friend even though she's already dead. LMFAO i found it odd how masao hesitated to attack the kid. it seemed so out of character... he would've killed that kid like a hbic right away, man. |
 |
| I have to say, thy writer(s) did a genious job with Masoa... They tried so hard to make him as loathsome as possible; exceptionally selfish, stroppy, obsessive and fairly psycotic (no reaction to his attack, happy at his nephew's death), obviously, all this has been done on purpose, so the audience would disslike him and hope he got bumped off, however, as a shiki, he came across as somewhat inncoent, relectant to kill or do harm. Yet there's a good chance this was all simply shock and he'll go back to his creepy old self, only worst. Another character I find interesting in cat-ear-hair guy (forgot his name)... For one, he came across enitially as a happy-go-lucky young guy open to making friends, yet only we knew he was something dodgy, he later sets Megumi onto Tohru, then freatens Masoa, who has been converted against his will. I really want to know his backstory; why is he a special 'daywalker'? Considering the doctore plays a big part in the series, it's possible that Cat-ear-hair is exceptional down to a certian genetic make-up, yet there is also a monk in this series (who hasn't got a lot of attention), perhaps he's a high demon? This series can go in so many directions, it definatley needs more episodes.;) lunar_reim said: Jaymie said: The worst Masao clip was definitely him clawing at his throat and leaving deep marks. Gag. agreed. it definitely gave me a creepy feeling that i did not like. but the artist in me was giggling like a schoolgirl, dying to recreate that style and scene. :D Agree with both of you, this scene was gorss-out unnerving. Also, side with the latter; I may be reccreating this scene too; though I've seen it before, still, it's psycological genious. zimno said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- MA-MA-MASAO...  I love this still frame. For two seconds, Masoa was actually pretty. A lesson to us all; we can all look good in the right lighting.;) |
 |
| The dude died, why can't he just stay dead? |
 |
| I love that Masao's family was so obviously apathetic to his death that we don't even see their reaction to his dying. I liked the episode since people are starting to put two and two together and going under the (correct) assumption that they're dealing with vampires. I just wonder if it's too late at this point, and what can really be done to stop total takeover. |
| It was okay...I want to see Natsuno and the others dig Megumi's grave, but we have to wait it next episode. Why does Masao have to be "special" ? |

He's on the way to become a very best villain, I feel. Is it really that he hated his nephew so much? I interpreted as Masao being happy because for once he outshines his nephew and no one can take that away from him. It seems consistent with his attention whore complex. |
 |
| Hell Yeah, Masao is back! |
| This series became more creepy - with Masao dead |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| poor , i bet there are lot of people like him in Japan xD [joke] well some are nor revived huh ? i tough every one should be revived cos they have been bitten by a vampire |
 |
| YES ! FINALLY ! They figured it out that those insect bites weren't FUCKING INSECT BITES ... |
| Nice story on Masao . but that doesn't change the fact that his face is still ugly |
| Not as ugly as his voice and the manner he speaks. Blah. |
| poor Masao, no one loves him lol well, it's his fault for being annoying :/ |

| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
persona said: i feel bad for kaori. :[ megumi didn't give a flying shit about her & yet she's being too good of a friend even though she's already dead. She's just a really nice person. She'll probably die next. :P |

| Seems like only people who hated someone prior to their death have risen. |
