Oh wow, poor Mayura..getting involved with the whole supernatural stuff.

I feel bad for her considering how she's one of the friendliest of the cast and shit happens to her. What a transformation too. Fight is decent, Rokuro and Benio has some good connection with each other and synergy. Glad to see they got her back to normal though.

Well holy fuck...the anime actually got something right. XD After how awful it's been so far, with the filler and the padding, I never imagined they'd handle Mayura's Kegare corruption in a single episode. I thought for sure they'd at least milk it for two episodes, maybe even more with filler, but no, that was surprisingly quick and painless. It's no secret that Mayura's my favorite character in this series. And pretty much the sole reason I still read/watch. She's the kindest, prettiest character, with the biggest and most beautiful tits...well, except maybe that filler exorcist lady, but who cares about her? XD Anyway, considering she lost Rokuro to Benio from Day 1 just by the premise, I already felt horrible for her. When she got corrupted, which happens VERY early in the manga but got pushed back a ton by filler in the anime, I was legit planning on dropping the manga right there if she wasn't saved. Thankfully she was, and quickly. Thank you anime, for also making it quick, for not milking this. You did good this week.

With my least favorite part of the story now outta the way(solely because Mayura suffered so much, I actually loved that she finally received so much attention though) I can relax and enjoy what's left. XD

Best episode till date, I really liked it compared to most of the previous ones which were mostly average cause of all the fillers.

It was sad to see Mayura being corrupted, But her corrupted form actually looked really cool.
Though I didn't understand how the Kegare corruption happened out of nowhere without any trigger.

Seigen actually got beat up :o

The purifying spell was amazing to see.
Rokuro crying at the end was really sad :(

That Seigen word about Rokuro's growth, it's just show how tough the enemies has become. And that twin tail stars exorcist need to do something to receive Seigen's approvement, FAST.
Damn I really suck with this action-involved triangle-love quarrel.

Wow, that was amazing... I can't even think clearly yet, it was that good... I mean, yeah, it played off the whole "power of friendship" trope for an amazing outcome, but I don't care ,that was really, really good.

Man, that alone was more than I could have asked for from this show. Then that clip at the ending, looks like it's gonna be a heated battle next week...

This episode was amazing after all the fillers and stupid episodes that delayed the main arc it was still possible that thing will go onto the right path.
If we think about it these fillers might have been to get some more chapters of the manga out so we could have a proper adaptation for those.
If this anime really gets 50 episodes which would make sense because adaptations are usually fast paced compared to the manga so maybe they were giving it time to get more of the original content out?
If this anime really gets 50 episodes there might be a big possibility of fillers since there isn't much original content if things keep going at this pace of about 1~2 chapters per episode, mostly 1 chapter per episode.

Mayura corrupted... I honestly thought that she will be killed too... Even after she is saved...... Rokoru still cries for prior loses... I felt that he did not care at all.... That's just my thought... Mayura Always cheers him and it seems she will still be treated as as a side character for ever by rokoru

Finally, an above average episode! All the fillers just made this episode even more worth it. I loved the focus on Mayura. She's the best girl and probably my favorite character in this show. It was sad to see her get corrupted but I was so relieved Rokuro and Benio were able to save her. Seems like next week there'll be a fight with Yuto. Hopefully this show has finally hit its stride and keeps up the quality!

Well I'll be damned, this episode was actually......pretty good, by this show's standards. If only the entire show was like this episode, then I'd actually consider this anime pretty decent.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords.

I was beginning to think that Mayura should just head on back to a normal life:
Blonde with big boobs in school...........sounds like easy life mode to me.

However, this episode showed that even the Easter Bunny can get corrupted. Now thanks to the Twin Emos, she got saved and cleansed. Even her "smokey eye" dad was impressed. Next week is back to old relatives and a new chance for big things.

I quite enjoyed this episode, more than the rest but the thing that kind of threw me off was that the kegare corruption just kind of happened. There was not even a slight hint that it would happen which did make it more effective but seemingly quite random.

Still I'm glad it didn't happen over 2 episodes as that's incredibly frustrating so good job show

yep. they could have used some episodes to show how mayuras jealousy corrupts her, but i guess thats a little bit too much to ask for.
i like the concept of the show, but it seems a bit too trashy. has something of a chinese anime.

Ah man this episode was great, when Twin Stars actually focuses on the storyline from the manga it actually shines. The anime handled the Mayura corruption part so well, and I'm even more hyped for next episode since its Seigen Vs. Yuto!

Mayura should have stayed corrupted. She looked hotter too.

I was never a big fan of this part, it just felt overall too plot convenient, the timing of her changing and the two being able to use the spell Seigen teaches them (in probably a matter of minutes) instantly after learning it despite being like 'the ultimate spell'.

Nice to see it getting back on track, somewhat...

Without a doubt, this is the best episode so far!
I was really waiting for this part after I paused reading the manga at this exact event and they really did a good job with it. It was really thrilling and exciting!
Seems that I will enjoy the rest of this anime especially with that next episode.
I do hope they reduce the fillers a little bit just to avoid spoiling the mood. :)

I don´t think this anime is a good adaption, but this weeks episode was probably the best one so far.
I never understood the reason for rearranging certain events and why they "split" the Yuto fight and included it already earlier, but as of now the anime is finally on the same level as the manga again and as long as this continues to stay so, I will deem neither the anime nor the manga order of events as better or worse.
I did not really like the first third of the episode. I did neither like Mayura nor the group chemistry/atmosphere they tried to set during the dinner, but the rest of the episode made up for it.
They did a good job on portraying the Kegare Mayura and the way she was designed was pretty good. The fight was was nicely done and at the end the anime really managed to catch the feeling of the manga imo.
I´m still having problems with this anime, but I just wanted to appreciate especially the end of this episode.
The way how Mayura survived still doesn´t appeal to me. The way how Kegare corruptions were always presented as unrescuable made the way how they saved her, no matter how natural this may be to the Twin Star Exorcists, just seem like cheap plot convenience.

Yep, at this point the anime is definitely better than the manga. They did a great job by making Mayura's character more likeable in this episode instead of letting her be a typical 3rd-wheel love interest like in the manga.

Great episode, which is surprising since this anime has been dime-a-dozen so far.

Mayura is clear best girl. In the coffeehouse scene we see she is stronger than other kids her age; her father tells her to stop calling him dad but she's totally unfazed. You get the impression that she's gone through it before. I don't understand her warm attitude towards Benio, though. Even for a character known for her kindness that's a bridge too far.

Mayura looked hot in the impurity mode

And that was the only positive. Also pierrot ffs can you stop copping out on every fight. That beautiful OP 2 is the only good thing about this series visually.

And finally, after a bunch of episodes who ranged from meh to bad, the show finally delivers an episode I genuinely enjoyed since the Kamui fight.
At first I though that Mayura's transformation was too random, but when Yuto appeared at the end I guessed that was probably something he caused.

KegareMayura! was actually very hot, kinda sad she didn't stayed in that form at the end, but at least she was saved. This episode also kinda developed a bit Rokuro, Benio and Seigen, hope they didn't ruin that.

It's kinda sad Pierrot milked this that much, since, based in the things I heard of manga readers, the source material is very good. In fact, the concept of the series is very interesting, but the studio screw it with fillers.

This after bearing so many ehh episodes feels rewarding. Expected best grill to die but surprised she got 'purified' and it finished in 1 episode. Obvious Yuto's behind the scenes of all the corruption the pres mentioned, targeting friends of the onmyoujis.
Action was good, Mayura dark design is great with the crab arms & black rose. Would be fun if she went to school like that. Hopefully Rokuro won't be so cold to her anymore.
