| That ending...I'm definitely going to keep watching now. |
| Wow, the suspense was keeping me on the edge and then finally someone died!!! I was having doubts about how they were presenting the plot, but this was great! Now I can't wait for next week! |
| shit's getting serious now! |
| This episode somehow reminded me of the book/movie "Omen" By the way, where does the censored release come from? I'm watching the HorribleSubs release and it seems less censored than the OP's screencap. |

| holy shit that was unexpected i was like 'oh gosh no no she's gonna die but i don't want her to die'. Then she died I feel so sorry for her that it happened and for the boy that liked her but looked like he didn't get a chance to confess to her. Censorship sucks! |
 |
Well that took two hours to watch. |

| OMG... hell what did i say!? i KNOW there was NOTHING under Mei's eye patch since they MADE SO MUCH fuss on it! and the end... OMG... i never saw someone DIE because of AN UMBRELLA going through their throat. never saw that one coming! |
| I am really surprised that Crunchyroll did not censor that... |

| This was a really good episode. I'm starting to become very confused over Mei's identity now - I'm not sure when she died or if she even ever existed. That ending, by the way, totally shocked me. I wasn't expecting Yukari to die first, or in such a horrible and painful way. |
| BRB, going to the toilet to throw up. GUYS, I WAS EATING JELLO AS I WATCHED THIS EPISODE. BAD DECISION. |

justinas said: onzeedge said: B) she actually sees Mei and freaks out. That could be the case. Maybe people see Mei right before they die? You're probably right. It could also be possible that all the students in class 3 will all die at the end, and maybe the same thing had happened in the past years that's why the students were so anxious on telling Koiuchi about the story. We just saw the first death and now who will be the next one? damn this is so thrilling. I like where this anime is heading. Im hoping for more disturbing scenes next week /droool |
| Why is it that the third episode of shows like this always end up being awesome? Can't wait until next week! |

| I was having my dinner when I watched this..... will never do that again! |
| YES! REALISTIC! -falling of the stairs, no broken neck (lucky) -umbrella reaches the floor faster than the girl -umbrella has a HUUUUGE pike on top -umbrella lands in THIS position and is even capable to pierce the girl Could be interesting if things wouldn't be this hilarious. XD Final Destination is more realistic lol. |
| I'm thinking thats why people are afraid of Misaki ordeal cause if they see her they will die shortly afterwards. Still I was like Holy Shit wasn't expecting glasses girl to die. xD |

XD Final Destination is more realistic lol. Thought the same O_o I can't wait to see where that anime is heading... But I'm kind of pissed of that Kouichi (main char.)...that attitude of him... I think you understand what I mean without explaining it |

| And so the fun of mayhem begins. ^^ |

| not bad, not bad at all =o some of the more recent horror ish animes ive been seeing have really been a disappointment (ie ookami kakushi and shiki which i personally didnt like) |

| Girl with glasses dies like it's goddamn Final Destination. It was stupid. Not so impressed by this anime so far |
| Come visit my town // I apologize in advance for my second-rate English Join my fan club // Improve the transport network |
| So a small deduction from what I've seen so far: I can't wait until I know WHY? Normally I'd find a summary of the manga and/or novel, but I can't find one.. So I'm waiting to be scared again in the next episode. |
| I was waiting to see how this would be animated since i've read the manga. Not too bad... |
| I'll never be able to walk of a staircase while holding an umbrella again. |
| Rather than realism, isn't the fun of horror garbed with immense suspension of disbelief? I don't think Sakuragi's death was stupid at all. If anything, it's a sign that (as Mei had said), "It may have already begun." I think they did well on the slow motion. Anyway, I won't spoil on the manga, but it'll all make sense soon. 3 eps isn't enough to judge the whole thing. |

| Or maybe she was freaked out about seeing Mei and her dying was just an accident from running down the stairs because she got scared. |

Gogetters said: Or maybe she was freaked out about seeing someone who doesn't exist and her dying was just an accident from running down the stairs because she got scared. Yeah, and if anyone can remember, she sprained her ankle in ep 1, right? If it's her clumsiness-mingled-with-fear, the world can be deadly. |

| Holy poot. |
x15 said: I think any one see Misuke will die.It somewho reminds me Final Destination " No one cheat Death" That's what I'm thinking. Dunno why she would be so suprised just from seeing Kouichi. Good epsiode, finally getting interesting. |

| NEVER AGAIN USING UMBRELLAS |

XD Final Destination is more realistic lol. THIS!!! Yes, it was disturbing and chilling. But part of me thought, "Christ, not a 'lets find incredibly gruesome almost impossible ways to kill someone' show". Having her crack her head open falling down the stairs would have been gruesome enough and much more believable. For me how she died practically ruined what was otherwise a really great episode. You can argue that how she died couldn't possibly be accidental and it would make it seem like there's supernatural forces at work. However, i think it would be much better if it continued as if her accident could have been merely bad luck coupled with her foolish haste. What a stupid ending to the episode. |
| And so umbrellas are your worst enemies now. Nah I'm just kidding. But seriously, that ending... |
 |
| I just died (ok probably not the best choice of words), my mouth was wide open when I watched the girl die, wow shit is going down. My neck feels somewhat strange now :( I think Mei looks pretty without the eye patch! Oh god I want next episode now, I can't and I won't predict what's going to happen next... |
As it turns out, living was a punishment...  |
| I knew she was gonna fall down the stairs, but I didn't think she was gonna get killed!!! I seriously closed my eyes when the umbrella popped open. Now I officially hate umbrellas. |
