The first season was amazing, so it's not surprising the sequel's getting a lot of hype. Let's just hope it doesn't fail us.

Or that twelve episodes proves to be too short.

Not that strange. It's probably the only show with a serious tone this autumn.

Well, there's the Monster dub. And that show eclipses this one by far.

Who cares about a dub? And we are talking about new shows here. We don't care about some show played in US TV.

Well, that's just ignorant. Monster, even as a dub, is one of the best anime there are.

Honestly, I'm surprised, and it was a good surprise. The episode had a good pace, great animation and coloring, did the basic reminiscence of the anime story and had some good action in the end.

Good stuff.

Great first ep ^^. I missed watching DtB even if I only finished the first season like 2 months ago. I already like the new main pink-haired character, she'a kawaii and could turn out to be quite interesting o_O.

But what in the world happened to my beloved Hei??? :(((((((. What's with that long hair, I idolized his previous hairstyle!! I want that previous Hei back :((!

OMG I LOVED IT 'SALDF;S'FJF; I thought I wasn't going to like the red haired chic, since she was the other 'main' character and taking away Yin's spot was pissing me off, but oh my god she was adorable. I loved everything about this fucking episode! The pacing, music, it was just too interesting really. HELLYES NOW GIMME YIN!

Dang, so much happened in this episode. INTENSE.
I feel bad for all these cute kids getting their lives ruined by all this.
Sad to see all these people dying! Could that cat really have been Mao? I thought he died at the end of season one.
And what is Hei up to! He hasn't kept up with his hair at all. And he killed the poor girl's father, and April too. I hope he hasn't turned evil on us.

"Дикиэ птицы". It's the wrong writing. ДикиЕ птицы is the correct writing. And I think there will be more such mistakes. So everybody who know russian a little will have some moment to laugh.

Oh my, it's good to see DtB come back again but it seems to be that I can't follow the story line anymore, lmao. I got confused in the middle part.

Plus, Hei coming back was pure win. I loved his look in the ending. Aaa, those ferocious eyes. Wonder what's his plan now that he ran away from the organization.

I kinda liked Shion and Suou. I guess I don't mind if Suou become one of the protagonists since she's cute. Also, that scene when Nick was confessing to Tanya was very cute. >:3

You know what I think the BD makes this series way better in clear and sharpness. Compare with up being TV and bottom BD....I know it was much more clear and better to me and I also understood something of interest but cannot reveal it here since I saw all once before. I will say it has to do with the sudden stars dissipating.

I was wondering where is Hei, where is Hei..Suddenly i hear his voice..
And what 's wrong with his hair??He is like a cave man...He definitely needs a haircut..
And how did that guy with the hamburgers die?Because of the raindrops?I didn't get that part.
Anyway great episode indeed.2nd season looks much more interesting, despite the gap in the story.

He was going super fast so it was basically like running into bullets. Even raindrops have mass. Running super fast into a lot of them would hurt . For instance in space a tiny pebble can travel so fast it could penetrate an astronaut's suit. It would probably make a person's leg into meat. It's a similar type of idea.

Still though wtf Hei you killed April? Goddamn it. Bad enough we lost November last season. April doesn't even get a chance to shine. Fuck.

Wow this was pretty good.

To all the people thinking that was Mao... it can't be... if you remember what happened in the first season. Or at least, there's a really really small chance that the cat was Mao.

I watched the second series after watching the first eries, then episode 26, and then the Kuro no Keiyakusha Gaiden so i know that BK201 otherwise known as Li Shengshun/Hei is working with the CIA.

Haven't even finished watching this episode yet... but I loved that confession in the beginning of the episode :3 it was adorable. I love how the guy reacted after she said yes, *jumps around in snow and falls over* x3 But idk wth this has to do with awesome, hardcore darker than black... hopefully it didn't turn into a shoujo comedy xDD but I haven't even finished this episode yet so I'll edit this afterwords lololol

Alright well, sad when Tanya turned out to be a contractor :( ... and uhm Hei looks so different. Kinda vicious and savage (probably because of Yin, but I really want to know why they became so close before she was taken away, there were no signs of them being SO close except for a few Amber incidents in the first series). Poor Mao! D; Great episode, but really missing the first season. Liked it much better compared to what's happening now.

Stunning episode in imo all aspects.

This.

Just a great episode, I didn't see such a top quality coming. Hei's got a long hair? Wow, what happened there? Suou seems to be an interesting character, and by killing her father Hei sealed his fate as one who's gonna have hard time with her imo. We lost April, but it's not like I liked her at all. But she did great against Goran.
Did Mao die too? Well, I guess that the story can turn out on the different angle at any time, like he could've transferred into another animal. But if he died for real, it's gonna be interesting, you know. Like when you lose more and more of the main characters, the story's becoming more interesting, dramatic, sometimes even tragic and for sure - better, and one coming to an end.

5/5 for sure, but it's 100% assured that I'll watch the Gaiden episodes before continuing with this Season :0

Ok, I re-watch episode 1 after I've seen the OVA(I still haven't watched the other episodes tho). But now I guess I know why Yin isn't with Hei, because it didn't make much sense to me. That's why I decided to watch the OVA before continuing with S2. Anyway, Mao got shot... I wonder if it's for good. And we lost April... I hate when they introduce old character just to kill him right away.

..the introduction of Suou, who is a very likeable character was very well handled.
...
Very little Hei and no Yin, but that was to be expeted since the new characters have to be introduced.
Actually, more setting the stage than that. This is more Suou's story than a continuation of Hei's story... it follows chronologically, but Hei isn't the star this time.
