Clowns....Not sure what the manga readers are complaining about. I just watched the episode and read the manga chapters that got adapted and I think the anime adaptation was pretty good. Yes, some explanations about the world formula and some parts that shed a bit more light on Vanitas's character were shortened/cut-out, but it's not such a big deal that makes the anime "suck" compared to the manga. Please stop making such a fuss when Bones is doing such an amazing job compared to most other manga-to-anime adaptation I've seen. ...Anyways, great episode. I really liked the conversations between Noe and Vanitas and some of the comedy bits actually made me chuckle a bit. Didn't think Roland would make an alliance with our two MCs so quickly but I like his character so I'm looking forward to seeing more of him. Thought it was a weird way to end the episode, but well, it did make me curious to see what Vanitas is planning next lol. |
| So Roland is actually a funny guy 😅 Finally, we learned about some of Vanitas' past, that's why he was familiar with the pathways in the catacombs. Lastly, the hostage act by Noe was so funny 😂 |

| Nice little battle between Roland and Noe at the start wise nice to see, but somehow I expected more. The interactions between Noe and Vanitas never fail to amaze me, they are entertaining to watch. I love how Noe turned Vanitas' idea to take a hostage into Vanitas being the hostage, they make such a great duo. The way he threw him away, only to kick him mid air was pretty great. Just like that it was enough to make a proper talk with Roland and Noe's face of making a new friend was s. Now they will together investigate the doctor. |

DaPlane said: you could still have connections to a story but it doesn’t even feel like it’s going anywhere after the 6th episode I have mentioned the direction of the story through my episodic events. Unless you are the dense type, you should have figured out already how focussed it is to reach certain points, while not loosening down on character buildup and world-building. And I also mentioned how a story with apparently no direction can spew fire because it knows what it's doing. Sigh. Suit yourself. |

| It still makes me laugh how out of the infinite numbers in existence, Vanitas is called No. 69 lmao. Maybe there's a hidden meaning to it that I don't know of besides unga bunga sex. Great episode! A shame about the cut content though, there were some pretty important characterization in there. But I guess they can always just show it later on a different scene or maybe even flashbacks. Action was fantastic though, Noe vs Roland was great and Noe and Roland becoming friends was also great. Really looking forward to the next episode! Fuck that bitch ass Moreau. That was a beautiful cliffhanger though lmao. |
 |
| Not bad, but not my favourite, I liked the previous eps more. seeing how the anime adapts each chapter this will likely end up adapting chapter 23. |
 |
| Jeez, does every freaking character in this show have to be over the top? I don't mind the occasional funny face/shouting for comedic relief, but they were going way overboard in this episode. It's to the point where it was quite annoying. |

xspacedoll said: i felt like this episode just swept the serious back story of vanitas under the rug... so ganna for sure listen to everyone and read the manga. Wait till the anime’s done, then read the manga. The episode was pretty good after rewatching it. |
| Pandora Hearts is the best manga ever made and deserves an anime reboot |
 "Hoero, Zabimaru!" oh wait, wrong anime. |
 |
| someone said this episode had 18 animation directors!? w0w... well the action seems a bit sakuga?...i thinks... 5/5. lolz they well all through the mess but they should have said so in the first place in order to not let this mess happen...but y'know oh well...haha |

DaPlane said: Laplace_kun said: the entire story so far has been going point a to b to c with sprinkles of a story connecting them. With the show only having 3 more episodes i don’t see the show actually following through the events without a second seasonI have mentioned the direction of the story through my episodic events. Unless you are the dense type, you should have figured out already how focussed it is to reach certain points, while not loosening down on character buildup and world-building. And I also mentioned how a story with apparently no direction can spew fire because it knows what it's doing. Sigh. Suit yourself. Don't worry, it is scheduled to have two cours - so 24-25 episodes in total. Although since the manga is still on-going, we will have to wait if they ever decide to adapt more than that. |

| Vanitas, Noé, and their regular fights are so entertaining to watch. really liked the animations of that chain sword and the music. The hunters are after them and they're quarreling all the way. Number 69 :)) I like to see those Vanitas flashbacks (in the manga) but... meh... it's fine. |
| fav episode so far! |
Arshad-san said: In my opinion the manga is better in terms of information, art and pacing. But the anime has its perks as well, and both are great. So if you already like the anime, and don't really like reading manga then no need. There are some details missing in the anime that serves as extra world building/characterisation, but if you'd really like to know them later you can always read it then! Is the manga really that great? I mean I don't really know if I should read the manga because the anime is already enjoyable itself. |
|
| I really like Roland for some reasons. I dislike a lot of the characters in this anime so I'm happy about that. lmao Glad he's now an ally. |
 Life is a despicable endurance race |
| Man, Roland talking about God and shit while not listening to Vanitas and Noé sure was annoying. Good thing he kept his mouth shut the needed time for Noé to explain himself tho. Now they are BFFs. OK episode overall. More comedy-focused from what I was expecting but hopefully, things will get more serious next week. Especially since it seems next episode will explore Vanitas' apparently turbulent past. |
Arshad-san said: The manga is really that good. However the anime is a very good adaptation except maybe episode 9 but thats only due to cut character dialouges which the directors might have rearranged(I guess i overreacted.)(Art is debatable tbh I personally love the manga art more except for the fight scenes and some colourful backgrounds in the anime and everything so u can say they are pretty much equal but manga art is very consistent and impeccable). You cant really go wrong with either though if u appreciate little monolouges a darker atmosphere and more dialouge then yeah manga.Overall manga so far is > but the anime is still close with its music,couourful art and direction. Again i repeat you cant really go wrong with either Is the manga really that great? I mean I don't really know if I should read the manga because the anime is already enjoyable itself. |

Kobeanie said: Are you katy_potaty on Disqus? I just saw a reply in the comment section VERY similar to yours, if not the same xDThere were a lot of hints in this episode about how dark Vanitas's past was, from the reveal that he was a human experimentation subject, to the fact that he's mentally detached himself from that truth, to the way he views kindness as a weakness. I think Noe & Roland are gonna be a great pair cause they both have that child-like wonderment to their personalities. I just love how completely unpredictable this anime is. This episode took so many turns I didn't expect it to and that's something that happens every week. |

| Well, they outed Roland himself lmao. And they get him to join the team. Done obviously in the most fun way possible. Good job Noe on that part lmao. Now time for Dr and no. 69 (nice) reunion. |
| The music between the first fight was similiar to the Fate music. Atleast in my opinion. Good episode! |

| Vanitas as an experiment, oof, that Roland guy is sure a special one, and same for Moreau from what we can see.. |
 |
| What a weird guy, I like him lol. This anime is getting better and better. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| "If we explain the situation and clear up this misunderstanding.." (after the blonde psycho Captain said multiple times that no vampire gets out of there alive...). Noé is intolerably naive and yet -somehow- his naïveté was effective in that case. Quite incredibly it worked with the blonde fanatic. For a while I was confused and thought that the Chasseurs who were chasing them were all modified by Dr Moreau. Vanitas said that Moreau's 'Chasseurs' were enhanced humans and by that I thought he meant that green drug they injected themselves with before battle. However it appears all Chasseurs take that drug, so Moreau's 'Chasseurs' must be enhanced in some other way. Since one of them took out three dhampirs they must be quite strong. And Moreau looked like he had at least two of them. So the next episode will also feature quite a bit of battle. I think Vanitas wants to kill Moreau. Will he succeed? The battle scenes of the episode did not disappoint at all. |
 |
lmao the noise Vanitas made when he saw the two goody-goodies cooperating. Vanitas became the hostage when he pissed off Noe loool why does their chemistry just work so perfectly sometimes? Nice that we're finally learning a bit more about Vanitas and some of the reasons for why he is the way he is |
