Meh, the episode felt slow in the first half but was tearful for Juugo. The cute part was him and Nanana's bonding this week. Felt nice.

The action was okay I suppose. I wasn't actually ready for that per se. Juugo surprised me with his skills.

Shit! I don't know who my favorite girl is anymore >~<

Tensai overheard Juugo being the one to take the Nanana Collection XD Lol'd at how she made lots of spares XD

The conversation Juugo had with Nanana was really nice. She may seem to be naive but I feel that her character is way deeper than she lets on. Loved her tease of letting Juugo cry in her chest :3 Too bad it's a one time only thing :( Also the way she was trying to resist his bribe to forgive him XD

Yukihime was <3 this ep too >.< The fight was awesome. Juugo got owned XD But he used a dirty trick using the Nanana Collection to bondage her XD That was low lol Poor Yukihime crying thinking he betrayed her. Good to see them making up even though they don't fully agree on everything hehe ^^; Lol'd at the teasing about her not having a boy friend XD Her blushing face is so cute <3 Especially when she saying "Who are u saying is urs" XD And "U're my First love" XD

Lol'd at the Kiraboshi XD

Lol at Juugo for acting like a retainer asking his lord to forgive him XD.

I just knew it! Juugo did take the Nanana's Collection treasure from the hot springs ruins!

Awww, Juugo cried... thinking that Yukihime has turned her back on him.

The fight was nice I guess and Juugo can really fight, he trapped her using the treasure and said he can do whatever he wants with her body, even violate her LOL.

The conversation between Juugo and Yukihime was really nice.

So, Juugo really stole the Collection on the hotsprings. Well, there was too many obvious signs anyways.

Crap, Yukihime-neechan is kawaii when flustered. The Tensai boat is sinking for me slowly.. I'll board Yukihime ship when that happens lol.

SNS means social networking site or service, I think?

I kind of knew that Juggo stole the treasure at the hot spring ruins, since it was completely obvious in the previous episode.

So Juugo cared a lot for Yukihime, and he wanted to show her some attention. I didn't expect him to be a martial arts expert, though he did grew up with her and learned several skills. Just loved the bond between them, now I'm pretty conflicted if its going to be her or Tensai to be with Juugo. Yeah I don't about Nanana if she likes him or not.

We get to see some character development for Yukihime and Juugo :D. So if he finds the person who killed Nanana, then that means she disappears :(.

I kind of wanted to see Juugo cry like a baby in Nanana's chest, oh well.
So he got beat up again, not surprised.
But this time by Yukihime, he played dirty in the end though.
Doesn't matter really since he said what he had to.
Tensai really likes taking a lot of precautions, since she is a master detective and all.

If Juugo doesn't agree with the methods or philosophy of the Matsuri, I don't see why he doesn't just take over and then make all the changes he wants after that? Sure he'll make some more enemies and people will leave the organization, but at least he can mold it in his own vision.

It would also certainly help in his quest for the artifacts, without having his own people trying to one-up him all the time, and keeping an eye out for any more double-crossers in his club while he's at it, and a certain self-proclaimed genius detective trying to pin him as the ultimate villain on top of it all.

Yukihime: What am I to you?
Juugo: My first love.
Yukihime: *slap across the head*

...That was the highlight of the episode for me.

This show's gotten pretty cool. Most of the characters are less than trustworthy, which makes things a lot different than most anime I've seen, in a good way.

And Juugo is quite interesting, with how he obviously has daddy issues and how he's turned his back (sort of) on his former eager-to-save-the-world self.

On the other hand Juugo's untrustworthiness makes it hard for me to actually pin down what I think about him as a person. Take this episode, for example: he basically threatens to rape one of the other characters, and while I'm pretty sure he just said it because he was trying to get a certain reaction from her, I've been led by all of Juugo's past actions to mistrust him, so I don't really know.

And looking back at his speech to his dad after watching this episode, it seems a lot more likely that the only reason he's rejected the idea of helping others is out of anger towards Matsuri, although I'm not sure he admits that to himself.

I hope we'll get a better sense for who he is rather than who he pretends to be by the end of the show, but I'm not sure that I expect it. I hope we get a better sense for some of the other characters, too, because a lot of them seem to have unexplored depths. If we don't, I have a feeling that I'll feel 'left hanging' by the ending.

Decent episode. Juugo has a knack of deceiving people but seems to hate it when he is deceived himself especially by someone he is close to lol. Yukihime gave him quite the beating but nice to see the two back on good terms or does he have other ulterior motives!? We shall see.

Nanana's offer was too hard to refuse but of course, Juugo won't lose. So the bond between Juugo and Yukihime has gotten stronger after they resolved things, which is pretty nice. Juugo's first love! Oh yeah! :D

First there was the Tensai boat but this ship's sailing too. With only 4 episodes left, I wonder how this is gonna end... I don't think they'll get all of Nanana's Collection before this anime is over.

I think it'll be Juugo and Yukihime. They have a past relationship and now they basically promised to always be there for each other. As for Tensai he just looks at her like an annoying little kid and only wants to find closure for Nanana

That was a neat bit of misdirection last episode when it looked like Juugo got the money for the trip from Yukihime, but instead he got it by stealing and selling all of Nanana's games. No wonder there was all that anger coming from the next room when he got back. LOL

I'm really glad that the focus this episode was on Yukihime and Nanana - I just can't stand Tensai at all. She needs someone to bitch-slap her really hard in order to wipe that smugness off of her face. I hope that in the end she ends up being the true bad guy of the series so that she gets what's coming to her.

Yeah, it must be kinda hard for Yukihime to believe Juugo since he already broke his promise he made as a child. At least, he made peace with his hardcore tsunder-nee-chan :P

That treasure was pretty powerful. Isshin would have wet his pant.

Poor Juugo, he missed that opportunity to cry in Nanana breast :(

This episode was deep but it was sweet on so many levels. Juugo and Nanana bonding there was good, but Juugo and Yukihime definitely take the cake here, good fight with emotional level to match. While the humour was also nice to praise.

And WTF is with Star Driver here? LOL!!

I have no idea why or how Star Driver showed up in this, but it was awesome!

Not my favorite episode of the series, it did feel kind of slow. But, he was able to rebuild his relationship with Yukihime who was surprisingly cute this episode.

Juugo is an interesting character, he is selfish, and kind of a hypocrite, but he's not unlikeable in the slightest. He wants Yukihime to abide by the thieves code of honor, but he also kind of broke it himself...But its the contradiction that's kind of interesting in his character.

Still, needs more Tensai!

Kiraboshi!

Sadly, this anime is... Well, not as good as it could be. It still is great but I wanted it to be about searching treasures and finding more of Nanana's collection. All I am seeing is, betrayals, betrayals and betrayals. Once was enough. It is like, everyone is overconfident about their cunning abilities and are faking the whole buddy buddy persona. The only character, I genuinely like (more like, love) is Tensai. Nanana is also nice.

Juugo is so untrustworthy but I did like his confession to Yukihime.

Nice episode but pacing felt off at times. Animation was fab as always.

Ya know, I'm really not getting Juugo, at one point he may be this nice guy stealing the Nanana Collections to keep it away from greedy people, but there are 2 part where I kinda doubt if: is he competing with his dad who is the head of Matsuri or does he have some hidden agenda where he might be as greedy as those who seeks the so called "Nanana Collection?


4 more to go, so I wonder how will it end?
