So Kotori's space quakes are the cause of Origami's parents death cause that face of her said it all at the end. But she sure looked badass.

Kurumi's really stealing the show. You just got to love a psycho girl like Kurumi (still no Yuno though). Just love her teasing side and her seiyuu is doing one hell of a great job.

Tohka, don't turn princess in princess peach. She better joins the action and have one of the best parts next week.

When will you release Directors Cut episodes!, please let it be for all 12 episodes ;_;, also Kurumi completely destroyed everyone in the LN, I guess maybe its due to the budget, or they might release it in the directors cut if there's one.

So when will those mecha girls get more useful than just wasting ammo and trying to kill the undead ?
I thought Mana was better than that :/

These may be the worst subs I have ever seen. I think I'll wait to watch the rest of this until some decent subs come out. Even the font is awful.

This episode was hot! Thanks to Kurumi!
And also the flames brought by Kotori in Spirit Form!

Heard the piano version of the OP and it was spectacular!

Kurumi's transformation was magnificent.
Origami's transformation was good.
Tohka's transformation was okay enough.

Who knew you could hostage yourself?

Kurumi was about to be saved, but she killed herself. She's too OP.

And I'm guessing an awesome Spirit Battle will commence!
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.

I just love the narration from Misato-san (check Evangelion if you don't know what I mean) when the OP starts to play. A bit philosophical but always true, and coming from Misato-san makes it super-cool too!!
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

4/5

Not the highest marks for some deja vu that inevitably you can see, but that I give a little discomfort in this kind of animated series. Nevertheless, I must admit that until now I have not bored and the appearance of false imouo, I loved it. Curious to see next. The designs are always nice, too bad we're not taking advantage of this very good production.

Oh yes. Kurumi is even more charming this episode. And yes, Kotori finally revealed her powers. She is a Spirit! And it looks like she has something to do with Origami's hatred on Spirits. This is getting better! Although it feels that it is rushed.

Anyone found a better subbing version yet??? Because I can't seriously watch this episode with these current subs...

I did predicted this would have come eventually. Kotori wasn't the leader for nothing.. And I figured her red hair couldn't be just for show either. Although I didn't expected something as grand as this.

Well all I could say now is...

Dat Axe. My heart is ready for anything now.

This is getting perfect. Kurumi it's crazy as hell. I thought in this episode Shidou could make a change on her as he did with Tohka and Yoshino. But this girl is stronger is stronger than I thought. Such a badass, I love her. And Kotori as spirit impressed me a lot. She looked great.

Good episode. Psychopath girl is not over yet.
Tohka & Shidou relationship is getting closer & closer. That is great. But with someone who is not a human, will it be really work? I presume there will be some conflict involving this matter.
Mana is in fact a mole in AST. I thought she is from the same company. So far, there are 3 companies that involved with spacequake spirit. AST, Ratatoskr Organization, & DEM Industries. Interesting . . .
Kurumi seems to be the most powerful spirit. She can regenerate herself, control the time, & maybe other unreal things.
Kotori has a superpower? Nice. She has a kind of fire element power. Maybe Shidou has some superpower too(except seducing spirit).

Just like always, a power that shown later than any power, it must be the most powerful.

I agree.

Shidou already has a superpower, it's sealing spirit powers in him by kissing the spirit

Kotori with spirit powers? Wow. I love her fire form. The way she deflected that spacequake was quite something.

I had a feeling that Kurumi's Resurrection had something to do with her left eye. This episode proved my theory right. =)

For me this is the best episode so far. The rest were brilliant but this one had me on edge all the way through.

It's a great anime and I'm glad I picked it up. =)
