| dude that ending was creepy what is going on with eiko? |
 |
| Keitarou has gone through a ton of dangerous paranormal phenomena but it's clear he needs to stick to Yayoi if he ever wants a shot at a normal life. |
| That tape was freaky. Would neeevvvver be shown in school though. Keitaro is so innocent, thinking about making friends and totally oblivious that Eiko obsessively wants his D. What a reveal. |
StateofOhayo said: Normal Yandere thing, dw about it.dude that ending was creepy what is going on with eiko? At least she doesn't swing a knife all over the place like those overexaggerated Yandere. She's quite under control. |
Sharri said: Swimming pool make sense, but the goal is to bring the curse to her room so they need transportation. A bucket of water, swimming pool or even toilet would be OK, but they had to sprint in a car through the city... |
| Here comes the Yandere. It's getting more interesting. |
 |
| Damn that's some hardcore "bullying" to try to push someone to suicide like that. Shit like that does happen too though likely not so showy with self immolation. I knew something was up with Eiko. She came off like she wanted Keitaro reliant on her which I said previous episode. |

| Another boring episode. |
| even eika have two sides , im gonna still take it , because she is waifu material |
| Yooh she is sus AF!! She probably the one who cursed both Keitaro and herself. I wonder if Eiko got something to do with Yayoi's (mom) curse as well 🤔 |
| Somehow the girl looks like yandere type now :) |

| Looks like HanaKana's character from Happy Sugar Life is now reborn in the anime lol. |
| Ngl that VHS scene was scary. Bruhh Eiko WTF That ending scene give me goosebumps. |
 |
| Well things just got mroe interesting. I knew Eiko was putting on an act but fuck she is not only enabling Yayoi to put them in dangerous situations. She is getting off to the shit. Granted I wonder if she is letting an evil spirit take her over or not. She didn't get her hands treated like Kei does. I will say this though. I know Yayoi is the highlight of the show but fucking Eiko is always looking good. I love her outfits. |
| I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon. |
Ventus_S said: I think they have done a good job. You don't always need to make everything dark for horror to be effective. I love how it shifts to highlight how fucked up the spirits are. Also, I don't think this part is boring either as I have found things to be fun and fucked up from the start but I welcome if shit gets more crazier. I still think OLM is doing a good job with directing and animating this show. It's not perfect but I love how they are handling the horror aspect of this show. trampler8324 said: Lol so I was kind of right that Eiko has some mental problems. That scene with Kei being on recording was also a bit scary. Other than that nothing of note as I’ve yet to see where the story is going. DW the boring part of the story is pretty much over. (First 4 episodes) Now the story will only get more intense from there. All I can say is expect something like Jujutsu/ Bleach later :P But tbh I think the studio team are not rly good at drawing horror stuff. The color choice is way too plain and bright. It's the same studio from Summer Time Render but without the Summer Time render art team (they all left and join Zombie 100 team), and if Dark Gathering can get the horror feel of Summer Time render, it'd have been way better. Oh well... It's just like Jobless Incarnation season 2, there's nothing we can do about it but accept for what it is then... |
| I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon. |
| I hope this isn't episodic with this "curse of the week" thing, considering this is going to be 25 eps. |
Undefeated  Bahamut |
Yay! Nice episode 3:) |
| oh my god that was the best episode so far especially the ending. that shit was scary |
 |
| Keitarou is a magnet to evil spirits and yandere, what fun life he has |
| Kei-kun has no idea what kind of psycho Eiko is.....smh. Poor guy is worrying about saving her when she enjoys the darkness. |
| I feel like this is the first ep to particularly win me over, i like that the ghosts are actually bloodthirsty and Eiko being such a freak has me actually looking foreword to more. I just hope the tone starts to balance itself better cause the humor is largely a deteaction, itd be one thing if it were funny but its kind of in the way. I think what id like more going foreword is focusing in on the ghosts backstories like this did with the bullying. I just hope it doesnt start getting too actiony id like something more like the first half of summertime render. |
Immahnoob said: Jizzy, I know you have no idea how to argue for shit, tokiyashiro said: Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| ahhh Eiko noo you really were dipped in crazy still one of the most interesting aspect of this show her obsessions are both things kei-chan might end up stopping i at first i was like i would hate to be this poor kid hes so unlucky to have to suffer but at least hes got Eiko and now i'm oh god i just can't get over how early 2000s it feels it's refreshing |
 |
| Y'all think maybe Eiko's yandere tendency is the effect of the curse as well? I'm more creeped out with Kei's and Eiko's cursed hands to be honest lol... actually, I don't know whether I'm creeped out or disgusted lol. |
| Forum set + pfp by my aibou Rin. <3 |
UnknownGhost5 said: Another boring episode. ? All episodes were good though? The show actually takes it's time to introduce the watcher to the characters, develop them and their relationships and also explain the concepts of the supernatural world instead of throwing everything in your face and making them unlikable or shallow. To each their own though. |

| Btw , missing detail of the anime version: Eiko actually collect Keitarou's dropped hair too in the manga version. She even list the date of when she collected for reference of which age of hair is that. |
| I mean we already knew she was on the crazy side of things. Yayoi surely would've noticed her by now, so their goals are the same for now I assume. I get a feeling that at some point she'll have to confront Eiko, or maybe there's no spirit at work here and she's just crazy. |
 |
| I was expecting it to be your typical teenage horror with an MC getting into some shit, but it ends up becoming more and more of a new Another with "everyones is creepy" vibes. |
 |
| I'm really wondering if Eiko became twisted after being cursed or she was like this all along... but considering the pictures she had, I'm gonna guess she was always like this, and I think I'll go as far as to say that she was the instigator in getting Keitaro cursed, so we can say she's borderline Yandere and likely the most dangerous character in the anime so far. |

| WTF Eiko!!! I never trusted her but didn't expect her to come out as a full Yendere this early in the series. Imagine driving in a Japanese city at this high speed, crossing a red light, with a naked guy in the backseat and a child in the front!! |
Mcsuper said: With a literal child sitting there!!In what world can a teacher show that kind of video clip at a university? That's certainly some kind of spooky stuff alright. |
| I'm more surprised on this teacher making his students watch a freaking suicide video. |

Caller_of_Void said: It's inappropriate to spoil stuff in these episode discussion threads. At least put spoiler tags out of courtesy. vadoyager7 said: It's not. Basically, plot shifts once they encounter Kei-kun's second student in the 9th chapter. We might actually get to it sooner if chapters 6 and 7 take only one episode, which is actually probable.I hope this isn't episodic with this "curse of the week" thing, considering this is going to be 25 eps. |

Caller_of_Void said: It's definitely a spoiler, because I, for example, didn't have any context from the opening song or any other segment as to who that character was, let alone when he could likely be expected to enter the story. Just give people the opportunity to avoid it. These episode discussion thread topics are supposed to be only for the discussion of the series up to this point, other than speculation from viewers who are just guessing about something.WatchTillTandava said: I don't think that mentioning a character featured in both trailers and opening sequence counts as a spoiler.It's inappropriate to spoil stuff in these episode discussion threads. At least put spoiler tags out of courtesy. It's quite literally the first rule written in the red bar at the top: "DO NOT discuss the source material beyond this episode. If you want to discuss future events or theories, please use separate threads.", with "Do not" capitalized and in bold font. |
| yea i was just wondering what could be wrong with eiko and then show the last scene. it was kinda funny. i really hope kei chooses to remove the curse. also why didn't they just put all his clothes in a bucket of water and showed the video to the spirit? why take risks like driving fast and putting themselves and public in danger? |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
