| Turned into a detective story, loved all of it, OP and ED are good too. |
| Even a vampire is shocked to see Rindou is only a head lol. Rindou and Shinuchi is is fun to watch especially their interactions. Really liking this show so far |
| Badly written transition from episode 1 to 2. Feels like this detective thing with synergy and all just popped up outta nowhere. Could still be a nice show though. |
| . |
| I was extremely engrossed in hearing Aya Rindo's deduction of the situation. Very nice. |
 |
| Love a murder mystery and bonus because it has to do with vampires! |
| It's gotta be the vampire right? People can't twist off a lock or erase their presence.. Can't imagine the little girl did it.. And we haven't seen much of the older looking brother.. The blond guy was kinda shifty to begin with so I'm betting either of those two.. |
Undefeated  Bahamut |
| Im loving the relationship between Aya & Tsugaru, they are so fun and always seem to be on the same page. And to add to it, the mystery seems great. |
| I also felt that the jump from episode 1 to episode 2 was not exactly smooth. We left the protagonists as having just met and now we meet them again after they have become something of celebrities in Europe by solving several mysteries. Could have been written better, I think. For the rest, it's still intriguing, the direction is good and the two main characters work well together, thanks to an inspired voice acting. This shows basically saves the season for me. |
| Vampire Murder Mystery, interesting to say the least. But when are they going to focus on finding her body back. |
| I kind of wish we didn't get that timeskip and saw how they exit Japan and stuff, 1 episode had passed and they've been going around solving cases for long enough to be well known detectives now. |
| even without body this head so pretty and sexy for me |
| Lol I really like the dynamic between Aya and Tsugaru xD they are really destined to be true partners. Shizuku is also the type of character who doesn't like nonsense and gets straight to the point. I'm looking forward to seeing her back in action! (hopefully) Oh, and Tsugaru's pose at the end. Aya must have known who the culprit was, and to be honest I kind of suspected the husband too because he seemed very uneasy when he was asked questions by Aya (either he's the main culprit, or he's part of the masterminds, or he actually already knows who the culprit is but because it's someone close to him he's trying to cover up the case). His wife was smiling calmly, as if she was willing to be killed so that whatever the killer's plan was could be achieved. So that's why I feel like Tsugaru's pose at the end was like mocking the husband (:p) |

| Detective stories. Love it. As a long-time fan of murder mysteries, and having tried to solve the secret before the book could reveal it (with having made 3 A4 papers worth of detective's notes) let me embark on this journey to figure out what's going on! SO! Here's what we know: 1. It's an insider job 2. That's it. Literally. That's it. Some of my conclusions: 1. The younger son is sus as heck, for real for real 2. The culprit is definitely NOT Lord Godard nor the Butler 3. The sword was used in the murder somehow/plays an important role in figuring out how the murder was committed 4. The actual act was committed by a vampire 5. Lord Godard is being sus too but likely doesn't know anything Let's talk about the camera shots. There are multiple weird shots that seemingly serve no purpose scattered throughout the episode. A lot of them are regarding the younger son, but there was also a shot focused on the swords when Lord Godard talked about how silver wounds take a long time to heal if inflicted on a vampire. No idea where they're going with that, but it probably means something. The shots centered around Raoul are:
Now, the thing I find interesting about his hand is that... it's clean. There's no wound. But we know for sure that there is a wound on the killer's hand, and that they used their right hand when going stab stab. Why is that? Because of the blood marks on Madame Hannah's robes. They questioned the fact that there was more blood on her left side than her right, and there's a simple explanation for that: the killer is a vampire, and bled from their right hand while stabbing Madame Hannah. I can't think of any other reason why there would be a mismatch in the amount of blood when she had been peacefully sleeping, with no sign of struggle, since the show decided to point out this detail in particular.But what does this mean for Raoul? Does this mean he didn't commit the murder? Maybe. He's still very very sus and I don't know what to think of that, but what we know for certain is that Butler Alfred and Lord Godard had nothing to do with it; that's because of the way the lock had been brute forced. Another sign that the killer is a vampire, as no one else would have the power to break the metal, unless they used some kind of tool. The swords are way too big for that. The Butler and the Lord both possess keys to the storage, so there'd be no reason to simply not open them with the key (unless this was staged? but even so) Another piece of evidence is the book that was open on Madame Hannah's table. I ran the text through a google translator and did some digging, and it seems to be a French poem titled "Mort, j'appelle de ta rigueur" or "Death, I appeal to your harshness" The poem translated: Death, I appeal to your harshness, Who stole from me my delightful mistress, And yet were not sated Until you see my languishing: Since then I've had neither strength nor force; But how would it harm you - if she were alive, Death? There once were two who shared a heart; If that heart is dead, that power is deflected, If so, I must live without love Like those statues, in my heart Death! Idk, just seems like another sign that the Lord is being sincere and is not the culprit. Madam Hannah was said to have been a human previously, so it could be like a past lover who came to get revenge or something. Would explain why Hannah didn't sense them. They also kept showing the ring around her finger, twice at that. It's a possibility. Funnily enough, Butler Alfred is the only one wearing gloves consistently throughout the episode, so it could be a wild possibility that he was Madame Hannah's previous lover, somehow turned vampire, and killer her to get revenge? lol. That's a bit too much I think. The bottle of holy water was empty at the time of the murder, since all the dust it collected was on the inside. Not sure why it was left there, other than for staging a fake crime scene. Or maybe Lord Godard and Madame Hannah planned this together so that they could achieve peace? idk Well, I'm tired, so that's the end of this little analysis. I'm sure I'll find out next week~ |
| I'm a bit weary of Raoul since he keeps his right hand in his pocket the whole time, but it might just be a distraction. While not of many words, Shizuku may be my favourite. Her ready to kill vibe with that uniform keeps me looking for anything. |

thehornedrat said: Wtf are you smoking dude. This show is not trash by any means.Gosh this show. Trash but delicious trash that smells and tastes great! |
| They quickly moved it towards a supernatural mystery after the first episode, without wasting too much time. And they made it show their relationship after 1 year, with Rindo and Tsugaru having good banter between each other, whilst getting on each other's nerves, and the maid having contempt towards Tsugaru, but gets the job done when needed. |

| Kyokou Suiri vibes.. |
 |
| Bro this episode went by so fast! 😭 I need more! I'm already loving the worldbuilding, and I love these characters! This may end up being my favorite of the season! |

katakumplat said: Oh he absolutely did it lol it's either him or the lord of the mansion (can't remember his name 🤦♂️), or maybe a mix of both? Idk but I seriously need more! Aya and Tsuguru are such a good duo too!I like how this series is going so far. I'm guessing the butler did it but we'll see and it's funny to see how Shuninchi listens to Rindou they're such a good duo in resolving cases. |

off-season said: My thoughts exactly. Didn't expect a detective story all of a sudden. This was quite deflating. What happened to their objective? Why is this suddenly a detective story? The guy sprint-tackling a deer in the intro was pretty fun. Is the butler gonna be the killer, I wonder? Would be lame if that's the case. |
| Well that ended rather abruptly... I do love a good mystery. It seems the clues are indicating the classic "the butler did it" trope, but I don't think it'll be that simple. |
| very abrupt ending... seems like the culprit is someone who knew the victim |
| While the transition from the first episode to this second one was abrupt this was nonetheless a great episode since it went so fast. I'm guessing that Tsugaru and the 2 ladies have allready been together solving cases for at least a year since the vampire lord heard about them. I did like the setting for the episode although I did not realize this was going to be a detective show (Sherlock Homes anyone?) They also mentioned Dracula being killed and when the vampire lord held up the candelabras I thought about Castlevania. Anyways, I was kind of hoping they would find the murderer in this episode but then that may have been a bit rushed. At this point I'm not sure who did it but it does appear that it was an inside job, or that at least someone from the inside was involved. |
| That was fast, I need more of the duo! That vampire hunter at the end looked cool, specifically the hat. Reminds me of cypher with and without the hat. I wonder how bad this show would've turned out if the staff wasn't good enough. |
| A vampire murder case first thing and seems like it was done by one of them? |
 |
| Interesting episode and damnit have to wait through a cliffhanger. I feel there is no point in guessing who did it since we dont know much anything about these characters. I like the little sassy comments Tsugaru slips in |

| Is this series going to be like episodic by like 2-3? Ngl it feels like it. In the mansion, I believe there's a secret involving one of the sons. It might be a hidden dungeon where the hunter and others end up. If it's the second possibility, there are these creatures called thralls who become stronger by drinking vampire blood. Since Dracula is a real thing, we can refer to his ghoul or thrall, Reinfeld, as an example. This means that the culprit could potentially evade a vampire's detection. |
| Finally opening on Spotify! Waiting for ending |

| Oh so they already in Europe and made name for themselves. Vampire murder case...huh pretty intriguing but it's a little funny and weird how the vampire being a monster is surprised at a sight of talking head |
| Wow this is a good ass show. Competently directed, good atmosphere, leads with actual chemistry. |
 |
| This is turning out so interesting. I never thought I'd ship a romance with a severed head. Tsugaru gives me some serious mad-hatter energy. He makes your skin crawl but is cute at the same time. |

I really liked this episode. Right into it. |
