| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well.. that was strange. It seems that Yuri's Borg died and turned into highly lethal hair. Got to admit it creeped me out. Remember, "Aliens sucking your head is the best!" |

insan3soldiern said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. [looks at the sign above, restrains] It was due to overdevelopment of Bogu but I wonder what the teacher wanted Yuri to do instead of her usual fearing and crying. A hairy situation it was... |
Hell is empty and all the devils are here. |
| She is not fit for this kind of work! And what is up with the teacher allowing her students hair to turn white.... |
| The last 10 minutes were the best. Nice gore and induced reactions from the rest, them eyes, them eyes. That reminded me of Higurashi. : ) |
 |
| This sure was pretty interesting, quite impressive ending I quite liked the intense fucked up way that hair killed everything around it! Let's see what happens next! |
 |
| I really thought the main girl was going to die. Onwards to episode 3! |
 |
| that was mildly disturbing, and I liked it |
| Never seen a girl cry so much in one episode. |
| The gore scene was coool. |
 |
| I thought this was going to be a cute show from the picture XD this is kinda messed up lol. I don't understand how the alien head thing turned into hair?? And why it killed the other girls aliens. I'm confused but hopefully I will understand more with the nect episodes. |

| jesus christ does all the crying towards the end get annoying. Besides that this show is feeling way too disjointed. |
| Damn, I feel so freaking bad for Otani. Being forced in a situation like this can mess you up :< I'm also bummed out the borgs are supposedly dead. I guess the next episode will clear that bit up, since I'm sure the girls need them to keep fighting. |
 |
| Ootani cries so much for so many different reasons that she sounds silly most of the time now lol I'm surprised that she was the oldest. That part where Kasumi was trying to convince Kumi to go to Ootani's party with ceaseless nyanning was adorable as fuck especially that victory nya ♥ Megumi likes playing with her feet oh my~ Those boys were weirdos introducing themselves and putting that squid on their heads while speaking at the same time but them ganging up on her just because they were bored crossed the line big time. They're so unlikable '^' I have a feeling that Megumi was the one who removed the aliens from the ship because of the email and gave it to the boys beforehand so they can target Ootani and let her reach her full potential but it backfired badly with months of alien raising reduced to a bloody mess. Her Borg turned white as a self-sacrifice protocol and died. It even killed the other Borgs ;-; The last preview was a lie because I didn't see two hamburgers in this (or is it the alien bulls lol) |
 |
| I'm at second episode and this main character already seems unbearable. |
| This anime feels so surreal. I wasn't expecting it to get that brutal towards the end. Those poor borgs. Also the animation is quite good. |
 |
| That was kinda fucked. Pushing a twelve-year-old to her breaking point and creating an alien carnage scene. I may take back what I said about this being a good fit for Toonami back in the day (it'd still be manageable, but I think they would've gotten complaints...this is more Adult Swim material). |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| This isn't bad as a psychological horror, there's so much suspense in the air and the scene where Yuri went berserk was exactly what I was waiting for. |

| I liked the first episode but this was just far too weird for me and I like weird stuff so that's saying a lot. |
   |
| Jesus, this really is unsettling. |
 |
| weeeird... i like it tho, but this is very very strange, i see why some people might not like it. still, direction here is top notch |
 |
| I have a feeling she will start to attack humans also and not only the aliens. |

| Really confusing episode, especially that ending...I hope we learn the details behind what's going on. Stuff's just happening but I wanna know why The borgs are so much cuter than the giant hair of death :( |

| So Haru's Borg has turned into hair just like Megumi. I'm pretty sure Yuri would replace Megumi then. I wonder what's the purpose for putting her through this and making the Borg die like that. Oh and RIP Borgs:'( What the fuck was with those guys. What caused them to wear those aliens and get possessed? Looks like the next episode will be even darker. Starting to feel bad for Yuri. |
 |
| A stronger episode over the first one. Teacher's plan backfired so hard, now she has absolutely zero aliens. I guess her plan was to recycle those on the head of those boys to make Yuri get used to the aliens.Now, they don't even have a borg, unless..... |
| definitely seemed darker than the last ep. the combat reminds me of parasyte with the screws/bladethings flying around when they have the alien on/in them. music/sound design was strong this ep too! Also I feel like I find Yuri's Bolgthing cute lmao, in fact they all are on closer inspection, guess we just see the most of Yuri's. rip my guys. |
| I have a third testicle that gives me psychic powers |
| My opinion of this show has kind of 180’d in recent memory, but if there’s one thing that I still hold in high regard, it’s got to be the dub of Yuri’s breakdown at the end of this episode. The scene itself is pointless and the performance is somewhat downtrodden by the cringe voice overs and the ringing in the background, but I’m still floored by just how raw and believable the acting is. My favourite dub moment. It sucks that her voice actress hasn’t really gone on to do much else in anime because I can tell she had a good thing going here |
 |
| HOLY SHIT. I had some good time without a horror anime actually scaring me. It was so sudden, yet I knew it was going to happen eventually. That reminded me of Houseki no Kuni. I like it when the armor plot is minimal, yet... it feels like the author has some kind of fetish with girls suffering. Man, even I was tense all the time, first with Yuri's crying and then with ALL of them crying and feeling genuinely. It seems like the borgs can transmit the feelings of each other. |

| What an odd anime. So many scenes consist of the girls just pacing around aimlessly while crying, and there's still very little context or explanation for anything that's happening. I dare say the crying is approaching a level of obnoxiousness, with how frequent and unprompted it is. Yuri's killer alien hair is choosing the wrong targets. The aliens locked up in the cages aren't behind her troubles, the boys and the teacher (who appears to be the mastermind behind the aliens on the campus in the first place) are who should've been impaled there. |

| reading manga instead |
| Episode 2 really makes the viewer feel for Yuri. None of the adults or people around her listened when she said she could not handle the job. She has no way out. She is being pushed far beyond her limits in an attempt to get her over her fear, but it is done so carelessly that it naturally ends in disaster. |
| This shit is unbearably bad. The main girl is so goddamn annoying with her crying and whining and random shit just happens without explanation. Like why the hell were the other 2 girls chilling out quizzing each other in the other building and then after a few minutes it cuts back to them and they and their borgs are freaking the fuck out??? And what's with those little shit boys???? |
