Kurimu-chan said: This has been one of the best episodes. Why? Because Gai died. I'm sorry to all Gai fans, and especially fans of Guilty Crown, but this anime just keeps going downhill. With the way things are going, I wouldn't be surprised if a stupid Resurrection scene occurs just to bring him back to life. I can see it now. Shu: GAAAAI~ Inori: GAAAAI~ POWER OF TEARS Gai is revived. Yes, yes, ANYTHING is possible in this show. I'm serious. I'm sorry if I'm ranting right now, but this has been a disappointment up until now. Not only that, but they introduce Mana just to get on the nerves of some people. I'm serious. They're trying TOO HARD. TOOOOO HAAAARD. I SWEAR I'M REALLY RANTING ON THIS EPISODE RIGHT NOW. Apologize for rabid fans of this series :I they're going to have to try really hard to make this better now... Dropped the rating to 5/10 now. Current Reaction:  They still have 10 episodes left! WHO KNOWS, maybe they'll deliver something mind blowing that'll make me end this series happily. Maybe I'll even learn to LOVE it. GUILTY CROWN, CHALLENGE ME. BECOME BETTER. NOW. Yeah, I know. They're trying too hard, lot of new stuff happened. Like how the hell did Gai get his void out without losing consciousness, was it simply because he was holding Shu's hands? <_< Now Inori is created? That kind of explains her personality and all, but it's just another unexplained aspect thrown into the chaos. And what's up with marrying scene, it sounded and looked so cheesy. Lastly, incest, wtf did that come from. lol I thought the back story was going to be interesting, but boy oh boy, did GC prove me wrong. |

| The Ending was as fuzzy as Code Geass Season 2 with the proposal, new void and other stuff. It's still a great episode and final to this Arc. |
| Good episode but felt really "final" to me ... WTF is gonna happen in the next 10 episodes? O_O Shu's past ... I like Mana. Is her seiyuu the same as Inori? Well anyway, I wish they would have let her die and had Mana come back, now THAT would have been interesting! Instead, NOOOOO of course that doesn't happen ... OTL It was very interesting to watch his past though, although ... surely Gai's much older than Shu? He certainly doesn't look it in the past ... they look the same age there. Very odd O_O PLUS HOW THE HECK DO YOU JUMP ACROSS A GAP SO BIG LOL Also, lol incest XD Why didn't Gai pass out after his Void got drawn out? Contradictory to what happened to everyone else ... plus how long does it take that guy to put a freaking RING on?! Seriously! While they were reminiscing their memories ... he could have gotten away with time to spare but OF COURSE THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN -_-" Gai makes the "heroic sacrifice" and dies ... I honestly don't know why Shu was so broken up about him, he didn't even REMEMBER until this episode, don't you think he would have felt sad about his sister too?! Oh my god ... OTL Still, relatively speaking it was a good episode ... really liked the song at the end (not where Gai died) when they were fighting I think. Wonder what they'll do with that Yuu and Shuichiro guy ... hrm o_O |
| I'm just confushed that so many people found this episode confushing. It seemed pretty stright forward to me. |
| Well then, I wonder what happens next. The plot is shitty, it's not that it doesn't make sense, it's just that it's poorly executed and badly written. The only way that I'll like this show from now on is if Shoe mans the fuck up. |

| Gaiiiii! No. My fave character ;-; Triton was such a fitting name for him imo. I'm glad we learned so much this episode; Mana, Lost Christmas, and Shu's relationship with Gai... The plot can seem convoluted at times, but I'm enjoying the ride! |

duowolf said: I'm just confushed that so many people found this episode confushing. It seemed pretty stright forward to me. I agree. Maybe because it was actually coherent and planned out properly for once. And weabos aren't used to that? |
| The fuck.. ? |
 |
| Epic episode is epic. Gai, you will be missed :( |

| The way people are reacting to this Anime is so odd. I actually see nothing wrong with it but I see complaints everywhere! I dont see the hate. Cliche? Coward main? Emotionless girl? Really? Like seriously, really? LOL |

| That was random but kinda good. How come Mana and Inori look the same. |
| What the hell did I just watch? .-. |
| Gai finally died, it was about time. Now will Shu finally become a badass? With huge eyebrows guy gain my respect? I guess i'll find out XD. |

| I am confused about this episode. It is like the anime is supposed to end here... wtf |
| So it's not supposed to make sense? Okay, good. Just checking. |
 |
| wryyyyyy |
| What the fuck is happening ? |
 |
| Really amazing episode, the backstory was great and the ending was just beautiful... when Gai finally got a hold of Mana again was just amazing! In the end he managed to for fill his dream! Fascinating episode I must say totally loved it! |
 |
| Lol @ the people not understanding whats happening. |
 |
| The whole story with the sister... what a horrible idea for a plot. Lost Christmas happens because |
| beautiful episode, very poetic. I loved Gai's void. Unfortunately, he can't use it anymore T_T Gai's dead, but show must go on |
| GAI! NO! AND SHU KILLING- CHILDHOOD - AH - INORI IS SAFE - WERID BLOOD MARRIAGE THING - ACTION - AHH |
| This is just bizarre !!!!! I have no more words... I don't know what the fuck is happening. Everything in this anime is out of place... really unnatural, it doesn't convince me. |
 |
| Pretty sad episode, and no wonder Gai knew who Shu was once he saw him. Mana was a strange case but the question still is how did she get the virus? And what's up with scarface is he good or bad? |
| The episode was just all over the place. So is Gai like really dead this time? Seems like the guy can resurrect or something. The blade cut, the satellite hit, the gunshot when he was a kid.... |
| I have been loving the series. Some great characters. But this episode really was too much. they just rushed a shit ton of plot changes randomely with mana, the flashbacks, etc. i honestly had no idea what was going on for the entirety of the episode. Was really liking the series, but this episode was pretty bad in my opinion. |
 |
| Man, why'd they have to go and ruin it by making her his sister. Now he doesn't get the girl, just like Luke Skywalker. |
| I like Hentai, you like real life. Instead of complaining about my tastes, be grateful you now don't have to compete against me. |
| GYAHHHH GAI, WORDS! INORI, SHU! WHY? GAAAAIIIII!!!! KJLJLSDLJDSAJBDV SNJCEOIUEXRXFLKB LBEWLKFSLKVNBLK2!!! Kurimu-chan said: Current Reaction:  Using this gif totally against what kurimu was saying, but I feel very similar, though I still am enjoying GC. Goddamn terrified this will pull a Death Note and turn in to total shit, instead of pulling a Madoka Magica, and taking shit and making magic. Ohhhh, the anticipation is killing me! |

| Why didn't Gai feint when Shu extracted his void? I feel strange for actually enjoying this anime. I mean, I hear so much complaints about it but I'd take it over Angel Beats or Elfen Lied any day. |

ahin said: what the...? We learn that Gai and Shu are childhood friends. AND THEN, A FEW MINUTES LATER, HE JUST DIES? That was all way too sudden and rushed. The whole story with Mana and Gai. Sure, we pretty much got to know everything but it felt like they just threw it at us. So he was in love with Mana? And decided to die with her? I didn't get the big feeling of love from the flashbacks but oh well. AND NOW REALLY, WHY THE FUCK DID HE HAVE TO DIE? HE WAS ONE OF THE FEW AWESOME CHARACTERS AND NOW WE ONLY HAVE SHU LEFT. I like Shu but only him in the series will be less exciting :c but who knows, Gai's death may change him. Argh. This is making me so upset ;A; god fucking dammit dfghjkl WHY WHY WHY /tableflip  I understand your pain. I felt the same way! Ugh...I mean It is just so many Now without gai...shu is going to get on my nerves! :( |
| I'm the whisper in the wind... I'm the shadow behind you that is black like the night.. Don't tell anyone this but I am everything and everyone. Your never alone... So face it because all you need to ask is this question and You will foil my game of hide and seek... Because no one has ever found me but yet I do exist.. "Are you lonely?" And my answer will be yes... |
| my mind was full of wat. Too many questions, ughh |
My DeviantArt and Pixiv and still waiting patiently for a 3rd season of Spice & Wolf :'| |
| All this buildup and only now do we get a backstory? Who was that little evil kid, and why does he matter if he just showed up in the previous episode for the first time without any reason? The rest of the series up until this point was great. Then this episode happens. |

Vallaw said: Lol, it's funny. No matter how much the "good" characters try, they will still suck. No matter how terrible and psychopathic the "evil" characters are, they are still awesome. Segai and Daryl are the worst, Dan was actually a pretty nice guy. No one gives a shi* about poor Dan, but the fangirls are still praying for more Daryl/Scarface screentime XDEyebrows seems to be just like Segai, evil for the sake of being evil with no apparent endgame, killing off their own allies whimsically. Writers simply telling us "this is the bad guy, remember, okay? did you forget? here we will show you again" Seems like the only time one of the good guys dies is when another good guy kills them. Kyo, Jun, Gai. Hell even the bad guys kill eachother. I don't like this Good vs Good, Evil vs Evil thing. |
