Tenacra said: Agreed.Well this show just stepped up from its first episode. Seems like the majority of the population hate the very people keeping them from annihilation and with the way those police officer dealt with that stray cursed child really brings up the question about who are the real monsters here. Kagetane is proving to be quite the worthy antagonist as he doesn't seem to be around just for the evils plus he's just so damn fantastic. His methods are pretty extreme though. |

| Loved the darker theme in this episode. It was what I was expecting at the start of the series :) Only small complaint is that it sorta felt like a cop out when the girl survived the headshot. Would've been more impactful if she didn't survive. I sound so cruel LOL. She's probably play some kind of role later though, so we'll see! |
| Wow that masked man is badass |
 |
| sugoi sugoi!!! more cursed children, more anticipation on a big fight B| |
 |
| Damn, Rent even brought Enju's umbrella at the end. Fucking gentleman shit. I respect you now. |
 |
| 5/5 Episode better than the last, not because the former had to be thrown away, but now there is less narrative and more substance in frivolity. Plot that knows already seen from a mile away, but being insistent rhythm does not dwell much. Rentaro I do not like the protagonist, does not differ from the average guy from high school, not that it is a serious stain, but in an anime from time to time should propose realistic models but with a behavioral profile different from the crowd, then when they are want to make the pivot point of the story. A little better the character of Enju which follows the usual loli but has a different attitude already. Not bad the enormous amount of characters, I can not wait to discover them all. Technically and graphically the work of the Kinema was a bit lacking at the beginning is better after, even that of Orange does not look bad, I'll have to keep an eye on in the future. Colors and scenarios not bad. |
 |
| I really liked this episode... Felt sorry for that girl who was shoot. I still don't get what those 'regular' people have against 'cursed' children... And about Kagetane, I don't get why are Rentarou and he enemies... I mean they have the same goal , right???! So in this episode they receive a special assignment from the government to prevent the destruction of Tokyo from that Gastrea. But, wasn't that always their goal kind of...?? hmm.. |
 |
| It's pretty horrible how they treat the Cursed Children... |
 |
| I'm really hyped up for this shit now. What the "evil guy" is trying to do is probably not evil, just in the wrong way perhaps? Time for moar. zachfoss said: Damn, Rent even brought Enju's umbrella at the end. Fucking gentleman shit. I respect you now. This, so much! |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| Hiroku did mention about how Satomi's authorities are lying to him, who knows what that means. Maybe he actually is a good person? I reckon it's some sort of lead on for some sort of major plot twist later on. |
| Why do they treat those children like that ? I hate it -_- Nice eipsode. |
 - barely alive - |
| My word, this is silly. |
| This series just got more and more interesting,the part where the copp tried to kill the cursed child is seriously depressing as if they are not regarding them as humans,i wonder if the curse child possesses the power to defeat a gastrea,why couldn't she retaliate? The last part where satomi talks about how him and enju met brings so much feels although it's only 2 episodes in. Great episode! |
| love the masked guy |
| Damn, this is picking up fast. The masked fellow is one badass, looking forward to see more of him. And it looks like he's taken an interest in Satomi. Also wondering why something so dangerous (the item in the suitcase) is wandering around and not in the hands of the authorities. |

| Hiruko is a boss!. It's depressing to see how the Cursed Children are treated. I liked seeing how Enju changed after meeting Rentaro. The ED song was nice :D |
 |
| A lot more answers to questions from ep1, but now a lot more new questions. Just what is Hiruko's agenda here? The melodrama there at the end better end quickly next episode. |
~my list
| This is getting better and better. I like the connection between Rentarou and Enju. Those cursed kids sure have a hard life. ;_; The huge metal pillars remind me of the walls from SNK. I wonder what is outside of them. A post apocalyptic environment? ... that would be cool. |
 |
| awesome villian.. calling it now.. Rentarou is cursed as well. The masked guy is actually a good guy trying to rebel against the hot chick in TV all by himself because of some hidden ugly truth. Enju will almost die in the end (ie. virus taking over her body b/c she has to save Rentarou or some shit). Then Rentarou awaken his curse, which is actually an anti-curse and saved her. The TV chick (bad guy) gets away and the masked guy stay a loner and season 1 ends. in b4 i get 90% of this right after only watching 2 EPs. |
 |
| Have this people met 10 year olds? It's like extremely rare to find one that has any sense of logic. So how exactly are this girls so obedient and doing their job so well or talk so much like they understand perfectly every situation? Btw this show is the epitome of the meme "it's dangerous out there, here take this" but with a loli, lol. RazorRamona200 said: Man, why doesn't that masked man take off his mask? Because without it he wouldn't be the masked man. SweetKotomi said: Back to Enju, since her secret got leaked out she couldn't stay in school because she would get discriminated for being cursed. How her secret got leaked out is left to speculate but I have a couple theories: - Someone from Enju's school saw her fight the masked man's girl and they leaked her secret - One of her classmates got her mad at school and she accidentally showed her red eyes. Cursed children have red eyes when fighting[/b] I think is none of the two. Probably the masked guy told one of the children parents or told it to some children so the rumor can spread to her school. He did threaten the main about that happening when he told him "Visit her tomorrow at school and see what happens" xchee said: Was I the only one who got a bit alarmed when the Elder was revealed to be an old man? A part of me was like "wth are you doing to those little girls?!" I think it would have been a gentler scene if it was an old woman *shrugs* Wow! aren't we quite the sexist! |

| Wow I barely felt anything in this episode, which I think should evoke some feels, either it's damn rushed, or it's just badly written. I am leaning more toward the former after hearing things about this adaption. The gun to face scene was damn cool in the manga and here it was meh. However the masked dude's power is pretty cool to see animated. |

| Well, this is one of those anime you need to make sure you watch a couple episodes to judge if you like it or not. The second episode was a lot better than the first! |
 |
| Well its already a known fact that cops are scumbags. |
 |
| Awesome episode, I really dig the current pacing and development and well I really wonder what's next so without further ado let's find out! |
 |
| Kagetane Hiruko IS THE MON!!! SOO what I want from a whimsical psychotic powerhouse anti hero/ neautral villain type. Finally...the anime godz have listened to me. ^~^ |
| episode was much more serious and darker than the one before. Liked it pretty much. Masked man's daughter is sort of interesting. Can't wait to see her again. |
 |
| Show got dark quick. I feel like this episode was a bit rushed. Just alot of events compacted into one episode with not enough depth for anything. I hope it slows down a bit and explains a bit more about the world and the characters. |
| Damn the soundtrack is so good! This episode was not that great though, why would Enju let him leave like that? |
| Seeing Full Metal Jacket right before this really kills any sense of emotion from watching BB. |
| so the masked man is so strong .... so enju run away from rentarou ... those poor infected girls |
 |
| that girl he helped will probably come into it later on. too bad i'm hearing things about this being a shitty adaption. |
| What a shock, more racism in Japan. |
 |
| I feel bad for the Cursed Children being mistreated even tho they kind are helping basically keep Humanity going. That was short touching story about how Ren met Enju ;-; |
| That was so sad, I hope Enju will come back with Rentaro... |
 |
| Oh, man, what a shit police you had there, Tokyo. Welp, kinda classic for the villain reason, tho. I know the main point for his reason to make such a riot to the city government. Its all about the revenge, taking all kind of humanity into his ravage and madness without even thinking for the whole genocide. However, when the socio-politic in that era falls like that (examples with people on that mall and the police officer one), who can ignore the condition and gone rampage too? Fortunately, here again, some kind of guy, with a decent Hero logic and philashophy whom hesitate to change the whole civilization. Can he? I guess he can. Because, its classic. Beside my opinion above, i like this episode. A complete mix of nice action, drama, comedy, and dark-and-full-of-blood thriller thing. Nice direction too, overthere. I like this series even since the beginning. |

| That ending was sweet and heartwarming, story doesn't look that bad either. |
| Of course there's disparity between those normal ones and the cursed ones. And again Kagetane being the intriguing one he is. |
 |
| The meeting of the best of the best I say but only one notable, And Kagetane showed up and chaos after that Okay what the actual fuck this is getting a bit serious now, The fact that this exists shows clearly this series shouldn't be taken lightly Although Enju didn't fit well to society at least she has Rentarou who'll never leave her side and will always come find her when she's not by her. |
  |
| damn the kid survived 3 direct shots |
 |
| Cursed Children are durable. They must retain some of the regeneration properties of the Gastrea. Kagetane is a really cool villain as well. |
