Phoenix51 said: Does having more shrine and worshipers make the gods stronger? I noticed that Yato is extremely weak and can barely hold her off even though she was weakened. But of course she does have more help Yes, it does. Having a shrine and worshipers makes you much more powerful. Also, Bishamon is a goddess of war, so it makes sense that she would be really good at fighting even when in that state. |
 Excuse me while I cry through all night, see you tomorrow. |
 |
| They have done great work with the adaptation. I really really love it!!! |
  |
| This season is definitely better than the first one. RIP Kazuma. Dr. Kuguha better die next episode. |
| I actually felt kind of bad for Bishamon despite how she kind of frustrated me sometimes with her refusal to listen to reason or anything like that (makes sense when you're blinded by revenge though). RIP Kazuma (unless he also becomes a Blessed Regalia like Yukine). Hopefully Kugaha gets his ass handed to him next episode. |

| Wow so happy to see Yukine is alive and not only that but pretty much got a Lvl up! Was an awesome fight seeing Bishamon continue to fight even though she was being corrupted and really just showed how fueled with revenge she was to kill Yato. But man that ending was pure feels...honestly feel really sorry for Bishamon after this happening pretty much the second time plus now Kazuma is dead? Crazy stuff going from one episode worried Yukine is dead now its Kazuma...geez man easy on the feels please. Here is my full review on the episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxrKrlBbquw |
| Yukine came back and won a new power o / Kazuma, I'm so sorry for you, I hope it all right; -; |

| Hm... I was actually hoping Bishamon died here (even though she's pretty much alive in the ova) and be reborn to be a much better God who can use her head and not be so oblivious of her surroundings. There better not be a third time. Poor Kazuma... having to guide her all those years. May your soul rest in peace... except he's not dead dead yet. |
| a legggggggggenddddddary episode |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
| I've really warmed up to Yukine's character so the Duel Blade evolution was a welcome surprise, even if my initial reaction leaned toward d.e.m. I'd forgotten about the reference in Ep2, so that's fine. But Bishamon's rage-induced vendetta and complete obliviousness felt somewhat overplayed (even if understandable from the perspective of history and illness), especially when juxtaposed with Kugaha and his pet T-rex phantom devouring her ragalias only a short distance away. It really undermined the emotional impact of Kazuma's sacrifice, to say nothing of her extended crying ugggh. Looking forward to Yukine becoming badass. |

It was quite obvious tbh |

| Seriously all the hate on yukine. Hes a kid that died. He obviously didn't have a good life. Now he can never rly experience life. He already done cleansed himself. Then he finally makes a regular friend and he dies. Hes been through a lot of shit. Hell yukine is my second fav. But opinions and etc. Anyway I don't rly consider yukine evolution dues ex. Honestly. It was pointing to that a lot. Plus the way taro and yukine "love" each other is pretty evident. |
 As of now, please try to refrain from looking at MAL. its a complete mess right now T-T People of anime have whooped, roasted, beaten, and tamed my ass. I have learned my ways and will never speak that horrible word. But, believe me, MY DAY OF VENGEANCE SHALL COME(please dont take this seriously, just "trying" to be funny lol |
| Lost my respect for bishamon. Man even if im not in the mood , watching this always gets me really emotional. |

| Fantastic episode, best one yet. Emotional and well done. |
 |
| Fucking fantastic episode! So much feels man, this is definitely my favorite show this season! |
| Loved the episode, this season is much better than the last one. I wish however that Yukine's transformation would happens in the middle of the episode. I feel that his transformation to Divine Regalia was very rushed. Props to him, he's not my favourite character, but at least he has development and has saved Yato. Poor Bishamon, she was delusional in her hate for Yato, but she has suffered a lot in the past and in the present. I hope that Kazuma and the rest of her main Shinkis don't die, I like them. Kugaha attack with that ghost was brutal. Too bad that he will probably rekted in the next episode. |

But she's been pretty annoyingly oblivious af the entire time so far. I mean...not even the slightest suspicion as the wielder of so many regalias? Part of the reason that she was oblivious (besides the fact that Kazuma never told her), was that she didn't want to believe anything else. She could only cope with the fact that she lost all her precious regalias by putting all the blame on Yato. If she acknowledged the fact that she was 'betrayed' by her own regalias, I don't think she'd be able to handle that mentally. That's also why she cried that much, because she finally realised that she was at least partly to blame for what happened. So being oblivious was a way for her to cope and protect her mental well-being - or maybe I'm reading too much into this. |

| This series is like wine Although it's plain torture to wait a whole week for 20 minutes |

But she's been pretty annoyingly oblivious af the entire time so far. I mean...not even the slightest suspicion as the wielder of so many regalias? Bishamon has always been portrayed as selfless (to a huuuuge fault), and it would be OOC if she started suspecting her regalias-- it's the exemplar's obligation to play "whodunit" (as what's happened with the old lady regalia from before). Remember that the main reason for Bishamon's obliviousness was because Kazuma couldn't bear to tell her the truth. Even more so, Kazuma's the one who told everyone to keep up with appearances; his selfish indulgence in Bishamon's dependence couldn't be kept up for too long when she and Yato would eventualy clash. Also remember that it wasn't Bishamon's wish to remove the blight-- but Kazuma's. Hence this is why she wasn't thankful to Yato. This further shows that she values her regalia's lives over her own. Still, we can see that hatred can cloud her judgement even further during this episode when we see a blighted Bishamon blighting her main force. Honestly, I wouldn't be thankful to a god of calamity if I was built up to care more about others far more than myself. Even still, Kazuma still needs to play the role of reminding Bishamon that she needs to put priority on herself first. Bottom-line is that nobody would have been in this mess if Kazuma told the truth. It's unfortunate that the truth had to be revealed during a time of crisis instigated by Kugaha. Kazuma is to blame, but Kugaha deserves far more punishment than what Kazuma really deserves. |
| Wow liking the second season more than the first. |
 |
| This is how you do a second season folks. This show right here. This, along with Haikyuu are my picks for best shows this year. (To be honest, there haven't been a lot in my opinion). However, Noragami has been blowing it out of the water. Amazing. A+ |
| Amazing he Evolved! I can't wait to see Yato + Bishammon vs Kuguha |
| Hi there |
| God bless this season. |

| Damn, Bones is doing a great job, it's fast paced but it works perfectly, really good episode |
| SCREW THE RULES, I HAVE MONEY! |
| Great arc so far, I'm loving it. Receiving a strong sense of humane-qualities. |
What am I supposed to do? |
 |
| Awesome episode, though I still prefer how the manga did everything. |
| This was an amazing episode. From start to finish, I was on the edge of my sit and my emotions were running wild. The cliffhanger last week killed me but to see Yukine didn't disappear and he ended up turning into dual blades; that was such a hype moment. Yukine is so loyal to Yato and trusts him a ton which made Yukine transform and he's become a lot stronger too to be able to withstand Bishamon's other regalias. Sadly, Bishamon became corrupted and went on a huge insane rampage. Kuga's familiar went ahead and ate the other regalias which worsened Bishamon's condition. Kazuma and Hiyori were finally able to break though thanks to Aiha. Biggest shock was Kazuma sacrificing himself to bring Bishamon back to her senses. That was such a sad moment yet so fitting. Kazuma finally told Bishamon the truth about him telling Yato to kill the regalias to save Bishamon. Bishamon finally cried endlessly. Yato, it's time to kick Kuga's ass once and for all! 5/5 |
 |
| Woah what a great. Yukine leveled up and became two swords. Kazuma moved Yato out of the way and dies. That doctor really caused a lot of trouble, can't wait for him to die. |
| Splendid episode. The drama when Kazuma sacrificed himself ;w; I can't even put into words how tense this episode was. I was simply captivated by it in every aspect and before I knew it - it was over! Can't wait for the next episode now, one cliffhanger after the other. I finally want to see Yato killing that asshole. This episode further proved why I think this is the best of this season. |
| I'm feeling thank you |
| Really loving this season. Another great episode. Yukine is back and now Yato is a dual blade wielder. Bishamon gone crazy. Kugaha is a real jerk. Please destroy him. |

| Another episode that makes this season stand out a lot more then the first. Really well done. |
  |
| See guys. This is how Yukine developed from S1. Epic episode. |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |
| Kazuma isn't actually dead, right? He's one of my favorite characters in this show, so kind and righteous but not to the point that he's annoying. All he wanted was what's best for Veena and to stay by her side. I realize he's probably gone but... come on, I really didn't want him to die. Another amazing episode, and you've gotta love how Yukine is apparently one of the most sincere and loyal Regalias. 5/5 |

Or at least I refuse to believe it until it's stated explicitly. |
| THIS ARC IS GIVING ME ORGASMS HOLY SHIT MORE I NEED MORE BONES PLS. 10000X BETTER THAN SEASON 1 |
Tokoya said: adapatations are not supposed to be carbon copies of source materials and until the anime community in general can accept that and judge an anime based on what it presents and how they handle every episode, these threads will continue to be filled with hate posts by purists |
| I have really enjoyed this arc but I will be quite glad to see the back of Bishamon to be honest her stubbornness over the whole show has been pretty irritating and I have never been a fan of characters that are way too vengeful. Also RIP Kazuma, one of the best characters in the show is now dead. :'( |
| Excellent episode. Seems a lot of the Yukine haters out there are changing their opinions on him after seeing how he evolves. Bones continues to do a great job with this each week. |
| Excellent episode, a great battle between Yato and Bishamon, especially after Yukine evolve, then start to happen the killing of shinkis and Kazuma intervened in the fight, I'm really looking forward to see the next episode and how it will develop .. |
  |
| that was one amazing episode . Yukine is so badass now , Dual Swords Baby ! I already hated Kugaha but now i hate him even more , seriously just how heartless can this guy be ? i hope Yato's gonna kick his ass because he surely deserve it . I wonder if Bishamon will still try to kill Yato or make peace with him because now she has no reason to kill him |
 |
| Yukine's a Blessed Regalia AHHH YAY! KAZUMA NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO T__________________T |
| They cut the good bits of the past :( But still great though! |

| As of 27/7/14 I have decided trap anime Sword Art Online II has more appeal than Mahouka. |
