Lol, the monster is not that strong enough to defeat another monster? I thought that monster really strong :)
| @YudiYusantoS Imo, because he tore out half of his inside (piece) and gave it to Yoshiki in the previous episode, so he's smaller now and even got hurt just by being pushed by his classmate. |
| like gaah that was so well done it's so unsettling like |
| π i just want gintama back |
| Is it just me or I'm just really scared of what will happen to Hikaru rather than seeing Yoshiki being targeted by that "headless-ghost or something"? It's somehow a bit thrilling (and terrifying?) that Tanaka and Yoshiki finally met, but my, that suicidal freak with a knife was superb, messing up my thoughts psychologically. This episode is so lit. |

| @Matchappie This dude probably just watched one episode and went commenting here like an idiot lol |
| Ayoo this is getting better for sure dawg. Very nice. Want them to keep delivering! |
 me and who? |
| it's also such a pivot from the last episode that was also a pivot, I love how I can't guess what the hell is coming next first you have one of the most disturbingly touching romantic scenes i've ever seen in my life, and now you have just the darkest most terrifying stuff happening around them like, this is peakest of peak every week, I'm scared and loving the ride. i don't think i would like to live in this anime world i think i'm pretty cool on that |
| π i just want gintama back |
| Great episode, I love the feeling of unease the anime create |
 |
| Creepy asf episode. Between the possessed naked dude waving and slitting his throat, the no-neck monster at the restaurant and Yoshiki showing genuine happiness while holding a pooping hamster, I was on edge throughout the whole episode. |
| Creepy as hell, the suicide was so weird |
| Oh my god this show is so peak, yaoi and horror, the creator really did a big one. This episode was freakyy, poor Yoshiki. |
 |
| i love how they animate the monster scenes... it actually looks creepy and i would have a heart attack if i was in the shoes of poor yoshiki. |
 |
| I mean, I loved the episode since we finally got the detective's proper manga debut, unlike how the studio introduced him right in the prologue. I think I can imagine what’s going to happen from here on out, the detective stalking Yoshiki 24/7 until hell freezes over, I guess. |
| The first time a scene came even close to giving me the same quality/vibe as the manga... Too bad it's been a slog to get this far. The pacing has been atrocious and the animation quality has been in the shitter. |
| Ohhh!!! Idk why this episode got me hyped lol, now that Yoshiki accepted this Hikaru already, we're getting more into solving the mystery of the village and what Hikaru "Nonuki-sama" is. The old village map was so interesting, it's shaped like a human and even the names are related to each parts, crazy details. ??I wonder if the creepy supernaturals are related to the village's name as body part?? like most of the things we've seen in Kubitachi so far involves the Head and mostly the neck??? (both from this episode, the one from the forest and the hair one from Yoshiki's home, and uhh the head? from the train crossing). The school scene was crazy ngl, that shit was creepy af. And it seems like Asako didn't lost her ability, her right ear just got damaged, she is indeed lucky for only getting away with that. "Nonuki-sama" went down from the mountains and now he's even more weakened, maybe these beings are now mass appearing because there is nothing to keep them in check anymore. |
| it changes the stakes and dynamic of the show so much having hikaru lose any power, like wow the show was creepy but now that there is that vulnerability it is terrifying |
| π i just want gintama back |
| Yoshiki fully giving up on the original Hikaru coming back but being willing to shoulder the sin of the new Hikaru even when it comes to the murder of strangers and potential friends in my eyes is a sign that Yoshiki has fully submitted or at least partially to connecting his being with the being. Him thinking it’s worth it either by his own will or the unconscious persuasive of Hikaru doomed romance peak ™οΈ |
| I was able to find all the manga in the wild today, I'm so psyched. Still gonna keep it anime-first for now though. I just get this tingly feeling like this is gonna be one of my favorite anime of all time and I'm currently being able to experience it, it's awesome |
| π i just want gintama back |
| Great episode. Many interesting things happened, the man with the knife and the spirit are all caused by Hikaru’s presence. Tanaka is now guessing in the right direction. Nonuki was revealed as a deity and it looks like Hikaru got weakened by giving that piece to Yoshiki. |

| definitely picking up the pace of the story, and some consequences finally. probably one of my favorite episodes this season |
| best horror anime EVARR |
| Tanaka is getting closer and closer to our boy Hikaru. ο»Ώ That last scene was something else. |
 |
| I didn't expect that hamster scene: Yoshiki and Tanaka laughing together so happily was a very funny break from the suspense. It seems like the hunter is about to take action. Hikaru is definitely weaker now without that part of himself, but fortunately that old lady appeared, who seems quite powerful when it comes to dealing with spirits. Poor Asako lost some of her hearing, and that was a hard blow. It's fascinating how they're unraveling the mystery of what Hikaru really is: the deity, the city's past, and how it all relates to his human form. |
 |
| what a ep. This is the best series this season |
| rip giving up half of your innards, I guess. Hikaru is now more human-esh. The death on school grounds stuck out for sure π And the map scene where they were lining up all the villages as body parts is weirdly fitting. Since we know body parts are particularly relevant in this show. |
  |
| I love this show, but I am kinda dumbfounded at how small a deal it is that someone just SLASHED THEIR NECK on school grounds?? |
| uh oh! |
| I like how "calm" it can feel with the investigation and then it suddenly switch to full horror, that last scene was too creepy. Also Hikaru is slowly becoming more and more human especially after giving a part of himself in the previous episode? |
 |
| so taking hikarus power is a double edge sword he cant kill human but cant protect his boyfriend. Its getting crazier by the episode |
 |
| Wow, this episode is better than the previous one. Hikaru is weaken... Yoshiki frighten expression after found out about that naked guy was so amazing. That naked dude is scary.... Smiling, waving, and then cut himself... The mysteries of those town.... interesting~ It is a great mystery and a horror anime... If only no BL element, I'm sure no one will drop this anime. But I'm okay with BL~ |
 |
| That guy with the knife outside the school was really creepy. All the villages together forming a body was definitely creepy too. Maybe Hikaru isn't Nonuki-sama but a fragment of him? Anyway, it's sad that the dead woman's daughter showed up. What a great ending to the episode! |

| I like how the battles between supranatural beings in this anime are so abstract and hard to define, opposed to the physical brawls we are usually used to. |
