I once spilled acid on my arm in a college chemistry class. Luckily, I was wearing protective glove and acid wad diluted but it still burnt like hell. I`d hate to be Shinichi in that situation….

Well, about 99% people seem to think that Tachikawa was dumb. I`m one of that99%.

Anyone care to be the Devil`s Advocate and justify her actions? I could and I can think of few ways to justify her action but I don`t feel like it.

There was a mass killing and they went back to school after a week or so with no mental disorders, depression or anything like that? Just forgot about everything?

Did it say "after a week"? I thought it said "eventually", so I was assuming two or three weeks minimum.

Did it say "after a week"? I thought it said "eventually ", so I was assuming two or three weeks minimum.

1. The mass-killing occurred.
2. A week later, a TV news is still airing stories about the incident, which are carefully falsified rather than just inaccurate. That is because the government has imposed a severe restraint.
3. Watching the news, Shin'ich wonders why they keep the truth secret and he has a talk with Migi for a while.
4. Meanwhile, some governmental people and a scientist have a meeting whether they should make it public or not.
5. They decide to keep most of they know secret so far and to make a plan to leak only a simple method how to tell the difference between the parasites and humans that the scientist found. It is never to be an official announcement but supposed to be just a rumor.
6. The rumor gradually spreads.
7. After a time, the school reopened. The monologue of Shin'ich didn't tell when it was.
8. He sees a strange greeting between kids on the way when he goes to the school.

Speaking of prospective PTSD or post-traumatic stress disorder, I understand Misiakk wondering if the students didn't suffer from mental disorders. I think it unlikely for people to use the building anymore because the place is now like a gate of the hell. But, when the original manga was published (it was around 1990 or more than 25 years ago from today), Japan hadn't experienced of something like school-shooting. So, I guess the author, the editor and the readers didn't take the consequence unnatural.
It was June 8, 2001 when Japan had suffered this kind of incident for the first time. Until then, school-shooting had been nothing but a rumor about somewhere far a way from Japan.
See also, Osaka school massacre and the list of attacks related to primary schools on Wikipedia.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osaka_school_massacre
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_attacks_related_to_primary_schools
The building was closed and they had to build a temporal school on somewhere else at that time because many of the children were very scared there and the parents wouldn't like to force them to go to the nightmare place. It was also reported that some of the teachers had remained in suffering of survivor's guilt for years. It was 2004 when they rebuild and opened the new school facility on the original location.

Good episodes. Quite intense.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Dauym, that throw was sick. Now that the goverment knows about the Parasites, this'll get really interesting. The ending scene was sweet.

I used to think that the OST was only decent, but nowadays I love it. Especially the weird 'choir' works well in the fight scenes.

Damn, that long range shot was badass.

Blood's all over the place. Shinichi doesn't have human emotions anymore, but he stills keeps on saving the people.

I like the piano version of the ED. They're finally talking again, glad he saved Murano.

Btw, I wonder what will happen if Shinichi pull a strand of his hair, will he die or something?

Another week again T^T

*Sigh* murano...

Cos jumping off 4 storied buildings is normal thing to do.

That rock throw was just epic, and loads of blood this episode.

I didn't know pain thinner would be so effective. But in a way, tachikawa is the cause of all this. She should have just told her brother about it and the kill count would have been much lower.
And that sensei going "What are you wearing in your head" xD

Good thing that the thinner paint saved her. Consequently, it costs lives though. But at least no more victims for Shimada.

Also, that jump & throw.

Can't wait for the OST to come out. ED in piano is beautiful.

Murano wanted to know if he was okay.
Murano didn't like to know why he was okay. That is all.

As far as I know, they two don't eat humans at all, or rather, their parasite parts don't need to eat anything to begin with. Even if they're not definite allies for humans, they are more harmless than members of any criminal syndicates you can actually see on a newspaper page or a TV news around you, I suppose.
Or... are you of the opinion that the government should kill them as the enemy of humanity?

Hideo goes for a killing spree because he couldn't think straight. This is your fault, Yuuko.

Woah, Shinichi just jumped from the third floor. And over a fence.
300 meters? That's one heck of a throw. Dat arm tho. It's just sick.

I wonder how the government got people to pull hair as greeting, lol.
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.

Great episode :D That throw tho~
And I'm glad that Hideo's dead and Murano is saved.
That Tachikawa girl is an idiot. She knew who Hideo was and still had the balls to confront him. I guess props to her for her idiotic bravery, but it was her fault that the massacre happened.

Some people are kinda annoyed with Murano which I don't know why. I think she knows of the existence of the parasites if she saw Hideo's true form and she probably has an idea that Shinichi is somehow involved with it. But rather being concerned of who he is, she is more concerned of his safety. It seems that she is what's left of Shinichi's human heart. She is the reminder of who Shinichi once was before Migi came along. He's cold towards her but he obviously cares about her. She needs to stay.

I want to re-watch uncensored before judging it.
Episode that does not give the emotions that so I waited, but still managed to carry out the plot.
Narrative is remarkable the fact of wanting to further characterize Shinichi, but I have some doubts on many points.
Some parasites want to expose himself as little as possible, then why not try to cover their tracks trying to stop those who go out of your mind?
Another doubt is that Shinichi behaves differently than usual, but apparently no one seems to ask why.
One other strange thing seen during the narration is the fall of Yuko, who seems not to have made even a scratch, I challenge anyone to do it and not even break a bone.
From today's episode also shows that Shinici not intuit the danger of working with humans, which exposes it to being life threatening for possible turncoats from them.
Pity that Madhouse has not given the usual quality seen previously for the drawings, a bit bland.
I await the next episode to make amends on the criticisms of the production, hoping that everything is possible.

So basically Yuko caused a school and police massacre due to her selfish stupidity, yeah she deserved to die...
She put other people's lives in danger instead of doing the right thing just cause she kind of wanted to bang the dude and thought he was hot. URGGGG!!!!!!

I'm so pissed with this show right now! The stupidity has gotten to a level that I can't even handle!!! Why was Shinichi walking around all slow and chill while people were being massacred??!! No really, WTF was he doing??!!!! Then all the time he wasted between rescuing Murano and going back to stop him, he could saved those police lives!

The hair pulling method was so dumb. Honestly, what the hell their brain thinking. To make you discover that the one in front of you is alien by that method is the same as suicide. What? the parasite will die or paralyzed after you pulled a strand of their hair? Of course not, they will eat you. They should really not being that idiot.

And that glasses girl really pissing me of, she still try to ride that alien's dick even after she certain that he is evil. Almost Sakura, indeed. It would be better if she die.

The hair pulling method isn't exactly a breakthrough it's suicide. Plus I'm sure they can control their cells, if they can move body parts around they can do anything.

Let's not reveal the existence of parasites but rather a way to distinguish between humans and parasites... That made me pull some hair out...

Oh damn. That was some large-scale ownage right there. And not too bad of a job by glasses cunt. I'll give her credit for the paint thinner being a lot more effective as a weapon than I thought. Although, it was due to the paint thinner making Shimada go apeshit that everyone else in the school got rekt. She should have just taken one for the team.

I was a tiny bit disappointed with how Shinichi dealt with the situation. I kind of wanted him to go OP with flashes of superhero swag. Rather, he mostly just let everyone except Murano get killed (aka thinking with his dick which I do respect). Though this was probably a more realistic depiction of where Shinichi still is in his development of facing off against the parasytes and being a brostar.

And Murano... "Are you okay? You jumped down from pretty far up." No shit Sherlock. Good lord is she a moron.


Every single detail i thought of about this episode has been expressed into words by you already. What great descriptions that i find 100% accurate. Nice xD

So much bloodshed. Hideo goes on a killing spree.

That's a hard fall for Yuuko. At least she's alive.

RIP to those who died.

Shinichi goes badass again. I love the scene wherein he rescues Murano.

That's an awesome shoot. That arm transforming reminds me of the body-building structure of titans in Shingeki no Kyojin/Attack on Titan. He must join the baseball team, lol.

So in the end, Hideo Shimada is dead.

The idea of greeting each other by pulling someone's hair is lol. So at the end of the day. the government decides not to make the situation in public.

Great episode indeed.

Can`t help but blame Tachikawa a bit for it. I mean she kind of was naive and talked to Shimada first and then dropped the colour thinner on him and he went all havoc at school because of that. She actually caused it. Not blaming her entirely but she should have told her brother right away.

Fuck. Was Shinichi always that stupid? At least run out of the fucking room before talking to Migi. Even would save time to talk to him while running. (On a sidenote -> that opening really destroys good moments. The song entirely removed the mood that was built up by the soundtrack before. And I don't even dislike the actual song. Just the timing could be so much better)

OHHHHH She isn't as stupid as it looked like. That "attack" more effective than I thought she could be with a bottle.

Damn Shinichi was back to normal for a moment :( At least act like you are moved by something like that instead of just shaking it off.

Nice throw. But wouldn't that rock ultimately lead to him by finger prints of his other hand? Well if they actually investigate why there's a hole in the body and a rock behind it in the wall.

Really good work by the police to find something like that out so fast.

The girl that Shinichi knelt down and touched...was that the girl that had a crush on him? The girl that also seemed to think Shimada was cool?

Btw isn't that guy next to Dr. Yui, with the brown suit, the person who Tamiya Ryouko was talking to in the darkness? Not sure what his aim is...
