| I loved this episode. It was soooooooooo cute at the end, When Yin tried to smile. |
 |
| Very good episode. Kiko is just like me... we fall asleep after we do heavy drinking! Man, what a bad matchup for the lady against Hei. I'm amazed that he could recover that quickly after defribulating himself. And lucky for him, Huang was there as a a sniper. I'm so glad Yin didn't die. I was pretty tense. More Amber (C.C. to some folks) as well! And more Pizza Hut... yuck. Sandgolem said: I loved this episode. It was soooooooooo cute at the end, When Yin tried to smile. Cute and amusing. |

| Didn't like 13 that much, but 14 was pretty decent. Hei is once again, awesome. Shocking himself to keep his heart beating...that's hardcore. |
| Hope the annonymous guy subs and releases both 15 and 16 this wk... |

| Yup...I found them at animebreaker.com. There are lines of episode 15 that aren't translated (the sub is just "**"), but it's better than nothing. |
|
| I think I saw the same one, that just bugged the crap out of me but 16 was wholly translated. You can at least get most of 15. |

| beautiful ep, one of my favs. what wouldn't a piano do, uh? ^^ |
逃げちゃ駄目だ。 |
| Hmm... I don't know why but I thought it was hilarious when Hei fell when he was running towards that... plump contractor xD And the faces that everyone has when they're electricuted... those are pretty funny... I'm probably weird for thinking that though >.< |

     Sig WILL change soon~ |
| Wow, Hei recovers fast after shocking himself. Although,that was pretty smart of him. :D Aw...I love Yin. Her little bonding moment with Hei/attempt to smile made my heart melt. |
| I really liked this episode, one of my favourites. I'm surprised that Pizza Hut got this show too! How much money can they have for the sponsoring? |
  |
| Is it just me or is Pizza Hut becoming part of a regular occurring pattern in anime now a days? Did Japan recently get Pizza Hut over seas? Before you know it all anime's will ditch bento boxes and hit Pizza hut. Naruto will drop ramen and go for a cheesy deep-dish. XD |
 |
| Great end to the arc! Loved the character development/backstory, especially for Izak and Bertha, the Contractors from the FSB. It made the their demise in the 'moonlight' really beautiful and sad. But man, why do the people, in this verse, keep saying Contractors/Dolls have no feelings etc? We're seeing more and more that this isn't the case. Damn them for treating Contractors/Dolls like dispensable puppets!!!!! :< |
 |
| loved this ep. yin = <3!!! hope her and hei get together, but the chances are slim. |

| Very good this anime!!! Black Shinigami detonate! But, not understand the origens of power! Of stars? And the Doors? And what reaches he in the End? Many questions! |
 |
| Hm, I suppose Huang can get off the hook a little, since it seems like the syndicate is a pretty rough group to be hangin' around with. |
| I liked this arc as well. I'm really loving Yin. She is a cool character. I liked how Hei was sticking out for Yin. The next arc looks fun, looking forward to it. |
 |
| Awwww. Yin is a cutie patootie and I usually don't really love the silent types but she's such an exception. |
 |
| i hope they start explaining who these different groups are and what their goals are soon... i wanna know what's going on between all these people! |
 |
| i really liked the piano playing during most of the second half of the episode. + yin's physically forced smile was cute C: amber's up in the next episode, she seems like an admirable character. |
| That was probably the best episode for me so far. It was beautiful in every way!! |
tainteddonut said: This was a good ending to the whole Yin affair. I dislike Huang just a little less now since he stuck his neck out for Yin. Yep, me too. Her smile at the end was heartbreaking ;__; Hopefully, we'll see some more of that blonde girl next episode. |

| Aww, I wish Yin had a LEETLE more character developmen, as in, changing her outlook about the world or something. The whole unemotional thing is driving me crazy; is she a doll or isn't she? |

| the series is getting better and better x) |
smokes said: the series is getting better and better x) For sure! The end was great. <3  lol @this  |
| HAHA ... Yin very cute at the last part when she put a smile on her face xD |
     |
| I liked this two-parter. It's nice to have this sort of character development. The whole moon symbolism was neat, with the guy's poem at the end kind of tying everything together. I felt really bad for the poor piano teache.r ;_; Poor guy has been searching for Yin all this time, and in the end he gets the memory of finding her erased. Detective duo was good for laughs. I liked them better this time around than in the first 2-parter they were in. |

| The C.C.ish girl showed up again! Looking forward next episode. |
 |
| Much love for this ep, Kirsi/Yin is fantastic character. |
| Yin is so innocent ^^ |
 |
| I really liked this arc. Yin trying to smile was great. I hope she can one day return to normal. |
| yin is so kawaii, hei thanks for saving her and stay with her always!! TT it's awesome to see her more like an important character and not there like before n.nU |
 |
| She is just another Primula from Shuffle |
Beautiful arc  |
| Last scene where she put her fingers on her face and formed a smile, made me cry! It was soooo sweet!! This episode had so many emotions! i really felt for everyone in there! Amazing, just amazing! 5/5 |

LeaT said: She chose to stay with Hei hence chosing to be Yin. It had nothing to do with being a clone. That said, for all intents and purposes Yin is a Doll born after the gate affected the world and quite likely kidnapped by the Syndicate and reset into the Yin personality. The fact they wanted to reset her means they were afraid she regained the memories of her past, as she did. I mean, if she was artificially created, why the hell would they insert some random girl's memories on her.thatguy said: LeaT said: saxophone15 said: I really liked this arc. Yin trying to smile was great. I hope she can one day return to normal. What do you mean by normal? Yin is not Kirsi, she is a clone of Kirsi who just happened to possess Kirsi's memories. Exactly how Yin was created I don't know, but season 2 hints that some contractors possess abilities to clone people. It also seems that dolls can be manufactored, as hinted in later episodes. I never understood that. What dolls were I mean. If they were made or they were people who developed into Dolls like Contractors were people who got powers. One thing I learned was that Yin/Kirsi is from Finland from the production notes on the DVD. I thought the RUssian agents were interesting. It is mentioned several times that contractors are humans who failed to become dolls. This seems to suggest that it is part evolutionary. However, the introductory episodes also tells us that dolls can be created to look like other humans and then inserted their memories using the ME tool. It also seems to be that some dolls do not possess ghosts (like in the introductory episodes), and it could be that this is the major difference between manufactored dolls and humans who evolved into dolls. However, if this was the case with Kirsi/Yin, then Yin would also recognize herself as Kirsi which she doesn't, as shown at the end of this episode when Yin choses to be with Hei. This seems to suggest that Yin is a seperate entity of Kirsi who was simply mistaken for being her. |
