That was the end of the magician? Too bad. I was expecting more scenes from him.
Another awesome episode. Lots of cool fight scenes. OP was nice. Yup, ED sounded better.

Possible ways for Hei to get his powers back:
1) Reverse the machines mechanism (if possible)
2) Use the Meteor Core (If that will work)
3) Go to the "Hell's Gate' (Most Probable as it will act as a reason for them to return to Tokyo & it worked for "Havoc" before)

Also, I think Suou's necklace contains the Meteor core.

I was thinking that too, but wouldn't Hei realize/think that when he saw it? Still, you're probably right.

I don't want to wait for the next episode >_>
I was able to watch all of the first season at once since it was already out <_<
Now I'm limited to one episode a week. Oh the woes of watching a great anime while it is still airing XD

Let me correct this: I think Suou's necklace contains a fragment of the Meteor core.

In spoiler my anime list for now.

Good episode. As for the tone of the show, I kind of like that the comedy is incorporated into the main story, as opposed to the detective and having to waste time on him like in the first series. That was my major complaint, so I'm liking what is going on overall. I still feel almost completely in the dark about the show though, and I'm still not sure if that's the way I should be feeling.

All I have to say is that they better not have taken away Hei's power. Everything is going so good in the show right now and I do not want them to ruin it with such a stupid move.

So Hei's keeping his grungy look? He should have at least shaved. And ooh, Yin! I hope she makes an appearance much more than that. Her hair not tied would be a plus too ;) Kudos to Suou for those posters. That gave me a good laugh. That magician guy's kinda cool. And that woman Youko's remuneration was pure wtf. Intense episode. 5/5

Now that I have spotted the PTRD, I just want Suou to kill someone with it, then I can begin to like this series a whole lot more.

Oh yeah, I also want them to stop fucking up the gun physics, but no one seems to even give a shit about gun physics in anime. *sigh*

whats holding up hei's mask? seems to fall off easily.


I agree with the mask thing. He can do all sorts of acrobatic tricks with it, but it falls at other times :P. I think he uses suction cups, to stick it to his forehead.

I wonder why Hei joined the CIA. Like some people said, there may be a relation between what happened with Yin and the choice of Hei to join the CIA...but that's just speculation. For now.


I think that Hei works with the CIA beacause they seemed to be the only organization independent of the Syndicate in Season 1. So maybe he's getting protection in exchange for his services.

Another good episode. I'm still wondering what happened to Yin, and I'm looking forward to seeing what's gonna happen with Hei and Suo captured. I figured Hei must have lost his contractor powers for the time being, but I think he'll get it back somehow.

I've already thought that, but I want to believe that Yin is still allive and that the CIA has a relation between what happened to her and the actual state of Hei (Working for them). I mean, it seems to me that the CIA isn't helping him at all. And he has shown that there's no contractor that matches his power.

Heh there seems to be a decent contractor that matches his power in the manga story that takes place between season 1 and Season 2, currently up to 8 chapters ATM

YIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNN! I hope she comes back eventually. They're lucky they have this red head at the moment, or I'd be dead, plus she's cute too.

If his sister's star has disappeared, could that mean Hei doesn't have her powers anymore? Ohsnap! Meh I'm not really hating or loving this new set up, it's okay we'll see how it goes. I like that magician guy, he's pretty hot. Wasn't that Mao's voice in the beginning? Or was it that guy she bumped into, I swear it was Mao's. So he's around somewhere, POSSIBLY HER SQUIRREL THING ohshit.

Well, he's still one man up against an entire organization with roots everywhere. Maybe the CIA helped him get out of Japan or something, and help him hide. They do not need to help him directly, by sending reinforcements or something. Maybe they help him secretly, because the CIA is scared of the Syndicate.
It also explains why Hei needs the meteor core, since the CIA wanted it in season 1 as well. Ands why Hei is reporting to the CIA about him not killing the professor, since that would not help finding the meteor core

Hei will probably be most important character for connecting story.
but may be Hei will even help this girl and may be he will will even stay by her side, since meteor piece look like really important part.

Is it just me, or does August 7 (the magician) bear more than a passing resemblance to Cornelius Alba from Kara no Kyoukai?

Kinda sucks that April bought it already--I never thought I'd see the day when she got to actually use her power offensively without November 11's help, and when she finally does, she dies right afterward. :/

I'm loving the new characters and setting, and it seems like the fight scene quality has actually gone up--Hei against the ninja woman and April's stuff in the previous episode were absolutely phenomenal. All in all, fantastic so far, definitely worth the long wait.

I still cry about how Hei looks like homeless old man now. TT.TT I totally loved how he could be really scary, emotionless, good looking and yet cute when playing Li. Now he's just creepy. :( GIVE ME BACK MY AWESOME HEI!!! TTATT

Well, I can hope that he will shve and cut his hair later in series but still, in opening and ending, he is still looking horribly. So I don't think they would change, so I really think he will stay like this.

And Also, why the heck they made second season with hyper looking red haired tsundere girl as main character? Man, that sucks. I loved atmosphere of first season, where Hei always played cheerful Li and then changed into cool and emotionless Hei. Now they could make an awesome season like the first, and they made THIS.Well, it would be good anime if it wasn't connected with first season, but like this... Aww man, this sucks. TT.TT

And also, what happened to Hei's beautiful emotionless neutral voice? If same seiyuu is voice acting him, then what the hell is with this super deep voice? I just don't like it. :(

Oh, and I also hate that hat Hei's wearing. XD

So much happening in one episode!! o_o

One thing is certain though, these fight sequences are INSANE. I was impressed with the action in the first season, but they're really pulling all the punches this time. Ninja girl and Magician's fights with Hei were so crazy.

I'm very concerned about what has happened to Yin. Please don't let Yin die. TT_TT

I am curious of how Suou is going to fit into this storyline. Her twin brother is significant for some reason (where the heck did he go off to though? and why didn't Suou go after him?).

I'm sad that Magician is dead already (it looks like). He had a really clever ability.
