| Can we await after the next episode to start complaining about the hiatus please? So Natsuno got his ass beaten huh? Oh! well i never liked him much. Poor Megumi, how much gay staff does she has to suffer watching. And Natsuno is an idiot. He got out just like that not even taking a weapon. Well at least by going out by himself he spared his parents of a possible attack. Tatsumi plays his role perfectly. I so want to punch him the face. So was he dead or is he gonna wait for more bites before he dies? Maybe the doctor will save him. The only disappointing thing was that we didn't get one of those really creepy moments in this episode. I just love those creepy horror scenes. |
| I like the way they arranged the scenes.It reminds me a little of knk 5. Megumi is pretty one-dimensional.Still,her looks make up for it.I really liked her short talk with Tohru and her determination. Next week:looking forward to more Sunako and battle butler Tatsumi. |
| "This Forest isn't going to reveal all its secrets for the likes of you." |
| Atleast Tohru controlling him means he might not harm him later or not... |
| Tohru <3 what a handsome vampire I wouldn't mind getting bitten xD *shot* Made me sad when I saw him crying D: he probably really didn't want to do that ): |
| I agree that Natusno's parents are the brightest, but Natsuno getting bitten was partially his fault for going out and chasing after Toru... Not to say he wouldn't have been bitten had he stayed home... And just cuz he's bitten doesn't mean that he's dead or is a shiki. |
Jaymie said: I didn't want to believe the speculation at first, but now it looks like the opening DOES give away every major death in the series. I just hope Toshio will pwn the vampires in the end. He looks like evil incarnate in the OP. Better Tohru than Megumi... I was so sorry for Natsuno, but going out without a weapon was pretty dumb. Awesome ep, anyway. =w= Shiki is the best anime of this season. |
| intense episode was intense The BLness between Tohru and Natsuno is heating up. oAo fufufufufuffuuu I like it. c: Well nice cliff-hanger thar. I know what happens next cuz I already read the manga. c: btw, Megumi has a really nice rack. like really nicceee >3<// |

| Natsuno could have taken him on, if megumi wasnt called into picture. And yet hopefully Tohru still has his heart in the right place (if he has 1). By getting natsuno, he may just have saved his life. |
| I'm not a fan of this development. What is the show about really? Everyone is so exasperatingly stupid that I felt like Natsuno was the only hope for the village to be saved. Now, I see him open the window knowing exactly what was on the other side, and then run out the house. Not to mention not try to explain to his father what the charms and crosses were for and making more. It's as if he didn't realize how desperate his situation was and risk looking crazy. Now we're left with the dumb priest and nearly worthless Ozaki, and I just think everyone is doomed now. I hope something happens so that I can become reinvested into the characters and everything, but I don't know anymore. The atmosphere all but evaporated with this episode. |

The priest is useless, yes, but Ozaki kicks ass. He actually uses extreme methods to get out of this situation so from all of the characters he's the most useful. I guess Natsuno's following actions will answer all your questions as to why he did something like that. At least he didn't look that stupid to me once I understood him a little better after reading all the chapters about him lol |
 |
| The look on Megubitch's face at the end was priceless. This was even better than the manga with the music, animation and voice acting to back it up. Poor Tohru, being forced to bite his own best friend. I'm so torn between feeling sorry for him and being happy Megubitch didn't get to do it. |
 |
| Amazing, shit just got real. (Reference to Angel Beats episode threads again.) |

| well...he couldn't help make sure if the guy is really his best friend. so he opened the window. and couldn't help look for him to see him, and get his will, even if there were freaky guys outside. it's because Tohru-chan was virtually his brother rather than a friend, I guess. I felt Natsuno was, in fact, a more humanly guy than we were thinking. |
Iisan-kun said: You honestly think a weapon would make much of a difference vs. two (three) vampires? Since he already was clutching that wrench when he was at home, he could have as well left with it too. Even if it was going to prove to be useless, it would be better than nothing. |
| Crazy-ness is happening everywhere. Poor Tohru. Poor Natsuno. |
| Stupid parents are stupid. They killed their son indirectly. I didn't know 'they' still have feelings after they died. The only thing now is for Natsuno to rise up and bring down this organisation from within. |
| this has gotten pretty good after a slow start. man you knew he was going to die but it was still disappointing. I would of liked to of seen him and the doctor meet up. sad it was his friend that bit him. I've no idea how this will work out, what can the doctor and monk come up with? those other 2 kids are screwed. was stupid he went out there though. he didn't think much through. |
 |
Why will there be a hiatus for three weeks? That's way too long after making it so exciting! >.< I want to watch more and hope there will be more than 22 episodes for Shiki! |
| This anime keeps getting better and I somehow started liking Mizumi. |
| When I was watching the last part... I just "Whadda faaak!!" |
Laevantein said: Hmm am i to be consider as a freak for having a boner to Shimizu? I mean she is so hawt yet she is a walking corpse right.. ROFL no worries, I felt something similar everytime I saw Tatsumi (especially the Boss Tatsumi+motorbike+sunglasses scene was critical), so...yes. Tohru-chan...I'm sorry for saying this but it would be better for him to be totally dead. I so liked him when he was alive and seeing what a weak, pathetic thing he became...It is painful. And now throw the rocks!! |
noteDhero said: You do realize he kinda doesn't like his parents. They only think of themselves and what's best for them. Natsuno said that he wants to get away from them when he goes to college. That's why he didn't argue with his father for throwing out the charms and crosses. His parents believe that what they think are the right things and his father doesn't like religion and superstition. Natsuno doesn't think arguing about it to them would help since they won't listen to him. He may also think that he can defeat them by himself. That's just how he is, I guess.Now, I see him open the window knowing exactly what was on the other side, and then run out the house. Not to mention not try to explain to his father what the charms and crosses were for and making more. It's as if he didn't realize how desperate his situation was and risk looking crazy. As for opening and going out the window, I agree that he was stupid doing that. I don't have any argument about that. Just wanted to defend him about the charms :) |

| Now what? Natsuno will be a vampire too and make a revolution from the inside? |
Soffi said: Now what? Natsuno will be a vampire too and make a revolution from the inside? Meh, I think Tohru might not suck him dry, just pretend. This is so intense! I started shaking after watching the episode. |

Don't argue with the parents you hate for the sake of your own life. Maybe it's some residual Japanese respect that I don't get, but at that age, most high schoolers resent their parents, and if they threw out something they spent time on, there would be backtalk at the very least. And if he thought he could beat them by himself, and it didn't matter, then the logical thing would be to make more and not put them up until night. It's dumb to me because I thought he was supposed to be a smart and defiant person, and all that was swept aside so he could become a vampire. |
noteDheroSep 11, 2010 7:22 AM
| I think that Natsuno didn't say anything to his father, because even if he did, that wouldn't have changed the situation. He just didn't want to argue for something meaningless. The crosses and the charms were already thrown, then why make a commotion? It's not like his father will return them or change his point of view. He's just that kind of person and Natsuno can't do anything about it. That's why he acted calmly and just accepted it. There is no point in screaming and panicking over it. Аctually, he wasn't even sure if they will help him. I would have done the same and I don't think that's illogical or stupid. |

| Wha o.o That's so awesome xD Finally a protagonist with no Plot Armor, mwahaha. I wonder if Ozaki will save him...because if Natsuno becomes a vampire, I can't really see how he will manage o.o Anyway, I missed Tohru, and however weird that sounds, I'm glad he got to do it instead of Shimizu. Also, 'a blunder' is an epic understatement, Dad Guy. |

| ok, i think this was the first shiki ep that got me glued to it. i felt terribly sad for Tohru, damn! If Natsuno becomes a vamp, i hope he doesnt give up and kills them all, those damn vampires dont have any respect for human life, i hope they burn in a big fire in the end (except sunako and tohru). (no offense to fans). Cant wait for next ep;D |

| To all those saying Toru probably didn't suck his blood... well, unless reading the Manga has blurred into me watching the Anime, wasn't it stated once that their (Vampires) thirst was virtually irresistible? With Toru being just a Fledgling I doubt he could have resisted being that close to blood and not sucking it. Also I think the others, probably Tatsumi, would have figured it out if Toru didn't drink Natsuno's blood. Plus his family would still be in danger if he didn't. There, I said it. Read at your own risk. |

| WOW! But three week hiatus T_T At least Megumi got more screen time! <3 |

| Every time while watching the OP I always thought if the OP spoiling me something and YES this episode confirmed it. Oh, Megumi's face saying NOOOOOOOO was priceless. And Tatsumi's face saying YESSSSSSSSSSSS was awesome. |
 "A Legend is but a tale of a beautiful lie." |
| Natsuno's a pimp (I read Tayune's spoiler). Megumi, well she's crazy but I still love her. I really hope Ozaku freaking wastes some vampires in this series, he's so cool. |

| Great episode! This is the first anime that I hated in the beginning but then it became one of my favorites. Awesome series! |
| DUN DUN DUN! i reallyyyyyyyy love this anime. i dont know why ._. |
| MegumixMasao...that's what Megumi deserves for biting Tohru. |

| well.. i think natsuno comes back eventually . maybe as a vamp , but i think he will be on the good side eventually because of some strange happening like if he suddenly remembers something or the doc can save him or the priest with some sort of anti vampire spell.....i believe its not over for natsuno. (i didnt watch the spoilers so this is just a guess) best anime i watched in a long time^^ |

| Another fantastic episode. |
 |
| Extremely intense episode, I loved it a lot, though I'm kind of surprised that Natsuno also got bitten and I wonder if he's gonna change sides or what will happen... |
 |
| Oh shit, they're really not afraid to kill off every member of the cast hahaha. Or maybe Natsuno won't die? |
 |
| Can't really believe he got bitten...and now what? |
 |
| Does Yuuki have this some kind of see-through vision? or was it just a strong sense he has I THINK TOHRU WHISPERED SOMETHING BEFORE HE BIT YUUKI or maybe.. just maybe he will risen and take revenge that way To User who discuss manga here: |
