This episode was a text book example of how to "Make people drop a series". I normally never drop anything more than 80% in but I'm dropping this show now

Considering no one seems to stay dead in this anime i fully expect Harutora to resurrect Natsume as his familiar or something.

Damn, props for making me cry there. It hit me a lot harder, because it was so sudden and I never would've expected her to actually die... at least she got the reaction I thought Hokuto should've had. This episode, and especially that ending definitely bumped my rating up 1 or 2 notches. Probably gonna be at least a 6 or 7 out of 10 overall now.

And if it weren't for the anime being so rushed, and jumbled, up to the point of most of it being hard to understand, I'd probably go even higher. I'm sure I'd rate the light novel an 8 or 9.

Damn... i fell for it only after i read your comment LOL
Now i regret clicking it too xD
Dammit... stop with the temptations. >> Almost gave in myself. But I learned from last episode's discussions to stop doing it especially with this show, since so much has been spoiled for me with this show just by accidentally opening stuff I shouldn't.

Nah, give the LN a try tbh, it's much better, much better than the anime. The character interactions (which the anime always tends to skip) are cute and something nice to read in the LN too.

I'd really like to... I just wish I could find them all translated or could read Japanese, because the only place I know is baka-tsuki and they only have a few volumes translated. It's too bad light novels aren't more popular in America, because there's a lot of light novel series I'd like to read.

Well, just so you know, the TL is a boss, he translated vol1 in just a week and now he is halfway through vol5, I suggest reading the LN whenever you get time or when the LN has been translated till vol9 or 10. That said, yeah I agree, not only in America but these should grow popular in other countries too because there are tons of good LNs out there.

Oh okay Harutora was Yakou that was obvious enough after episode 17 but...They just killed NATSUME?!!?!?!? Seriously? SERIOUSLY??? Kiilling the best girl? ;___;

WTF is wrong with Takiko, what the hell is she to Yakou anyway? Suddenly showing up and then forcing the crow on Harutora. I just hope Harutora gets his revenge now that he has the coat. What was Yasuzumi thinking to seal his son and then using his adoptive daughter as a decoy? He's partly to blame here too.
God damn I wanted to see Harutora's real mother but they just didn't showed her at all.

This episode was 10/10 even if they kill Natsume. It gave me all those feels and that insert song. ;______;

Damn it...I hope Takiko dies now that they have killed my only favorite character..

Oh wow I just read something about Natsume in another episode discussion thread. Her real parents are still not confirmed (not even in the Light Novel)
Is she really a Tsuchimikado?


Well, Takiko stated twice(?) or maybe once that she was a descendant of Yakuo's "sworn friend"

On a side note... NATSUME!!! nOOOOOOO!!!
If there's no one happy, is it really a victory?

This is supposed to be a big reveal, and I have no idea what/who Yakou is, nor do I care. That shows how much I pay attention to this show.

Also, inb4 Natsume comes back to life.

Harutora now knows that hokuto is natsume but after that natsume dies wut.

Harutora as yakou seems cool. Hope that natsume be revived.

o Hokuto was not a different person but was Natsume from the start!? Damn Revelation!!!
I thought Hokuto was a familiar created in a different person but Natsume created her as a counter-part!!? and that counter-part (hokuto) has a different personality!? ahh shit.. so much for the Truth!! Dem feels like I cry for nothing .... Damn.. Mixed Feels right now... but now I understand it.... shit but the Feels is too much.. (that Hokuto the dragon was not the Hokuto in human because i think Natsume just named it after it.)
I also Feel like this a Tribute to Natsume's Hokuto!! It was really good tribute :"D

Ahh beautiful festival and fireworks scene!!
Its a Turning point!!!
That revelation kinda work out in some point.
Souma's familiar is good!!
The Truth was revealed!!!
I think the curses needs to be uplifted to have it as a coat.
HOLY!! so that star thing on his left eye was planned too!! shit.. so I was right all along.(correction I was half right i guess. That Star thing is half done. it needs to be completed in order to get the coat back.)
so the star needs to be erased at all. and its a kiss!!!
So many things rushed on my head....
That Ending!! I cried alot again !! damn.... it feels sad in a moment.. but I wish they'll do something like reviving her .. shit.. Feels is too strong !!!
Next Episodes are one satisfying one i guess!!!
This Anime is GREAT!!!

They got fucking cockblocked by Yakou himself LOL. That kiss was freaking contrived. Seriously, I'm not a big fan of biting my own lips before a kiss, but I guess it was for the ritual.
So, it's implied that Natsume passed out, because her death was never explicitly stated. I wish this anime actually made things explicit for once.

Nice story of Natsume at the beginning. Cool OST.
It's so obvious that Takiko will appear before Natsume say it. Harutora already knew though.
Noooo, Natsume please don't die.

Super glad they showed how she was controlling Hokuto and those flashbacks. Makes more sense for me now.

Damn it Souma! Why did you have to get in the way! That was more emotional than I thought. Harutora's screams really ring in your ear. Good job VA.

Holy shit! Did they really kill her!? Fuck! Right after her confession and Harutora finding out she was Hokuto too.

Still aren't Harutora and Natsume family? Incest?

Hokuto was copy of Natume but with different appearance & each time they met she how to say downloaded her experiences with Tora in to herself from Hokuto, or they were linked all the time u know what i mean like constant wireless connection cause Natsu always knew what they did Tora & Hokuto like its her memory so one of the options is correct

What's with festivals and people dying? Damn show is convincing me to read the novel(Which I will since it's tickling my balls), I don't understand crap. Like how do you die (I assume she's dead) after that? Did you lose all your life force for that spell? At first I was like No! but then you realize that this show has a thing with reincarnations. I'm sure she'll come back, but probably not anytime soon. If not, then big sad, seriously.
