| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I'm genuinely quite taken aback from Grandma Ohana's character as a human, but also a Kemono specialist at the same time. But damn, Aya's life is pretty messed up with Shiki's mother being taken advantage of by Akio, with the late realization of Shiki being her big brother, all while protecting her all this while. What a fine family this is, that must be taken with great care. I'm not sure about requesting the 8-year old to sign a contract and work with the Kemono specialists, but that shit is funny. Even more so is Kon with that jealousy stare...Kabane, you're damn lucky to have 2 girls alongside you. Once again, another Kemono case regarding women face-pulling...but it seems more towards love and jealousy. The one that needs to be treated isn't so much the Kemono in question, but Kon herself and needing to make sense of being the "No. 1" in someone's life. The ship sailed has hit an iceberg with Kabane leaning more towards Inugami? GG MAN. Nothing can get away from the no-common sense kid. |
 |
| I'm so glad Shiki's mom is allright. That moment with Shiki, Aya and their mom was so precious. Also Aya's really cute and she's on full attack mode, Kon now has a rival lol. The catfight between Kon and Aya was amusing. Thou lol now they both think Kabane prefers older man. |
 |
| That personality switch though in Aya! Kabane is still as clueless as usual proclaiming his love for inugami and all! |

| I'm really happy for Aya, Shiki, and their mother being united once again after all this time. Looks like Shiki isn't gonna quit being Kemonoist. Aya changed her outfit quite fast there just as quickly as her personality. Lol. And she's quite reliable even at the age of 8. Kon is back again. And seems like Aya and Kon are gonna have a rivalry over Kabane. I love it. Already two girls? Good going Kabane. Loved the misunderstanding at the end as well. Lol |
 |
| Aya can finally live life the way she wants to, do the things she wants to do, it might be a massive switch, but it's who she wants to be, so fair play to her. Poor Kon, she's super cute when jealous, and seeing that tree scene at the end animated, so precious. Lmao Kabane please. |
| Kabane became a ladies man. I love Aya's new outfit, she's so cute. Seeing Kon cry was sad, I'm glad Kabane managed to calm her down. |
 |
| Kabane is confused as always, well, you can't really blame him. |
 |
| It was hard to see Kon dealing with the feelings she doesn't understand, luckily in the end, we got our little Kon and Kabane moment |
 |
| Shiki's family is reunited again. That is good for them. Also funny how Aya turns from this innocent girl to basically becoming a teenager even though she is 8. |
Friend Request? |
| She woke up! Let's go! Shiki has another family now! Oh for suck's sake AYA. What the fuck are you wearing? -_- Kon finally makes an appearance. I thought she was still waiting at that park for Kabane XD Oh fuck, tearing lips off and shit. I'm sorry Kon, it just ain't your day. That's some creepy love for you. So they gave her Shiki's mother's Webbing thing. Ah, poor Kon, shes down bad. Inugami got mixed up in this too XD |
| --AbiSa-- |
| Two IDIOT Kemono who do not know a damn thing about love but can confide in each other...God Damn I love Kon and Kabane so much. TWICE Kon coming into the office "It's a nice day, let's fight." So funny. Can't wait for Kon to join them. I wonder why Shiki's mother wanted to keep the Shrine hidden? I feel like they would have been understanding but whatever. Looking forward to more and Hopefully we get a season 2 announcement because it deserves it. |

| Omg I love Aya so much. Her comedic actions this episode were great. I’m so glad she and Shiki’s mom is still alive. After everything that Shiki been through, he deserves it. |

| Don't know if I'm more annoyed by the over-sexualisation of an eight year old girl or the fact that everyone here seems to find it fun and love her the look. |
| If that's how Shiki reacts to Kabane agreeing to go out with Aya, imagine someone joking about them getting married in future and Kabane becomes Shiki's brother in law. Just to point out, I'm all for Kabane/Kon. |
 |
max ship them!! Kabane x Kon!!  |
| It's really good to see that Aya, Shiki and their mother are not reunited, it's heartwarming, and it's fun to see how Aya acts now especially with that change of clothes xD She wants to go out with Kabane hmm that case solving with Aya, Kon and Kabane was also interesting it really seems like a love triangle is appearing with Kon being totally in love with him and wants to be the only one for him, it's understandable, but Kabane really never understand xD I hope she'll win to be honest, Aya is too young anyway |
 |
| Was good to see the positive conclusion to the Tademaru family. Aya with new clothes confused me. I first thought "What the heck Krul Tepes is doing here?", but was just Aya. Kon getting more screentime was great. We got Aya who is a healer, and Akira is still useless. Is sad to see Kon interactions. In a sense she cant express well. In a sense a road that Kabane would had taken if he didnt killed his feelings. This was the best episode for me. |
 |
| I'm usually not the type of person who would make a fuss about all the inappropriate stuff in anime because it's just anime BUT this is a bit too much. She's only eight. I'm one messed up mf but even I felt uncomfortable watching an eight-year-old, dressed up like some teen party girl, leading a romantic plotline... just why |

| Kabane and Kon's relationship is so sweet, I love them. I almost died of Shiki's reaction when Aya asked if Kabane had a girlfriend XD |
| Imagine how boring this world would be without Japan - a comment at youtube |
| Aya is a really nice addition to the anime. It's cute seeing Shiki acting like an older brother. |
 |
| Didn't appreciate Aya's new outfit considering she's 8... |
| Shiki's reaction to Aya clinging to Kabane is just LOL (What's wrong with having Kabane as an in-law? lololol) And just dang cute Kon's feelings towards Kabane has become so obvious. And lol figured that Kabane still didn't get the whole boyfriend/girlfriend deal. Aya's 8 but technically how old are Kon & Kabane supposed to be? Oh well.....hopefully this doesn't focus too much on romance cuz that would ruin it. |

Rei_Libris said: finally, someone says it. the whole episode I was scared to get the fbi in front of my house. why the fuck is she wearing the clothes of a cheap hooker from brooklyn? way too uncomfortable!Don't know if I'm more annoyed by the over-sexualisation of an eight year old girl or the fact that everyone here seems to find it fun and love her the look. |
| one piece episode 321 15:46 (or 16:33) you're welcome |
| Ew what kind of outfit is that for an 8 year old? Why would the author think that was a good idea? Her personality completely shifted as well just so they could force along a harem for Kabane. The monster of the week was also very uneventful. Not liking this direction of the anime. |
| Let Aya wear what she wants. She's her own person, she's allowed dress herself. Anyways, I hope we get to see more interesting sides of Aya, I'd be disappointed if she is only obsessed with Kabane, not getting any character development or having interests. Since she is 8, and Kabane is 13, I can't see this actually going anywhere. I feel Kabane is just happy without a girlfriend or boyfriend. He definitely has a strong connection with Shiki, of 14 years, I just don't think that's going to go anywhere either. They're just kids. |
Ryuk is somewhat relatable |
| I thought Kabane and Kon were endgame, but damn I guess Kabane loves Inugami more LMAO. For real though, even though Kabane does have trouble with emotions, it's nice seeing scenes like the one with him consoling Kon that shows he really does feel emotion, just in his own way. |
 |
| Ah, that's so relieved seeing Shiki's mother in a good term. But, when i seeing Aya also transformed into something to be like that, its truly arouse my eyebrow in one sec. That outfit. Kek. Shiki truly gave that little kemono too much trust which made her looked over confident. As the result, she came in and started the fight with Kon out as soon as possible without any shit. Wth with those kemonos? Why Kon suddenly arrived and done that dang? Then Kabane reaction just lol. Never expect him to start causing such a ruckus. Ladies man, eh, Akira? Well, i don't even care with this episode kemono jihen, cause, its just too well! I hope the next one shall get a serious note after this one episode purposedly as a break. Lets see .... |

| Aya is so cute lol. I love her dynamics with Kon so far |
 ManWild |
| that last part was pretty funny |
 |
| Aya is kind of annoying, and hopefully stays a minor character. I can see some people being upset about her style changes. We'll call it early rebellious stage, as she was locked in a basement. But, still, a little annoying. Love Kabane and Kon's dynamic, though. They're both extremely clueless, but that should make some cute interactions in the future as they kind of figure all this stuff out. Kon deserves all the happiness. |
 |
| Well to the people who are a bit annoyed with aya, remember she isnt a human and 2nd she was so confined and used to one type of clothing that she turned out that way. But i was a bit turned of with her clothing to though. But anyways she wanted to try she never had so thats the reason imo |

Rei_Libris said: Don't know if I'm more annoyed by the over-sexualisation of an eight year old girl or the fact that everyone here seems to find it fun and love her the look. I completely agree with you... this episode felt pretty weird to me |
 |
| Aya went from somewhat interesting to the most cursed existence in one episode everything regarding her character felt like some serious whiplash from what ive seen from this thankfully this case got wrapped up because i was not ready for a face ripper kemono |
 |
| Sugar daddy wins! lol. Though, I ship Kabane with Shiki. But, I don't want him to end up with anybody. I like him when he's clueless and endearing. If he falls in love, it would just mess up his character. Am I the only one who got uncomfortable by the way Aya dressed and acted? It's kind of creepy when I think about the fact that some grown adults drew a child like that. I knew she was going to change her dressing style when she said she didn't like the dresses, but I didn't expect something like that. Kabane shook Kon out of a tree as if she were a toy that was stuck there. haha I don't know why Kabane slept on the floor in the hospital even though a bed was empty. He's like a little cat, always living in his own world. |
| lol each day i'm loving kabane's complete lack of social skills and understanding more and more xd |
| Is this original anime episode? I can't remember this scene.. did they skip Kon x Kabane date for this?? >,< I like Aya but not for Kabane!!! they skip the most important episode for Kon x Kabane shippers T-----T |
| Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. |
| Welp, I don’t like Aya anymore lol. It’s not even the outfit change, it’s how mean she was to Kon and how her personality did a 180, don’t really like the direction they took her. Ah well, at least we still have Kon and Akira. It was a pretty good episode too, love that we finally got more Kon. That Kemono stealing facial features was actually a terrifying concept but sadly it was dealt with very fast. Other than that, enjoyed this one. |
| clearly another great episode! Shiki, Aya & their mother finally reunited like a complete family! that's very good! and w0w! for an 8 year old young girl, Aya is pretty capable and mature huh! but Kon is still the cutest most adorable of them all! especially if she's jealous because of Aya x Shiki. Aya is too clingy to Kabane huh...poor Kon! Crying Kon was a bit too much! Kabane should just hug her damn! 5/5! |
 |
| Don't like new Aya since I already ship Kon and Kabane. Her outfit is kind of revealing too... |
| Great episode! Shiki finally has his mother back and he's also got a little sister now. Aya is also finally free now from Akio, for all the shit she's been through she deserves this happiness. Didn't expect her to be all up on Kabane though lmao, poor Kon. That Kemono stealing peoples eyes, lips, hair or something was fucking disturbing and disgusting holy shit. Hopefully Aya was able to find those people she stole from and healed them. She's new yet she's outperforming Shiki and Akira already lmao, step up ya'll game. Kabane and Kon are so wholesome, their both super naive and innocent, their perfect for each other, though Kon needs to work on her over dependence on someone but she's in good hands with Kabane. Looking forward to the next episode, maybe we'll focus on Akira this time since Shiki's is done? |
