Rather peaceful show, with the music and the natural surroundings. Although I guess the concept of losing an eye's not that pretty...

Yeah, this show is beautifully done. But not really to beat ef. LOL!

It's rather disturbing in losing one's eye. Yet, this show really gives interest to me. I love shows like this!

this was really twisted, but i loved it. this show seems really interesting. I dont know how you're getting the whole 'peaceful' vibe... but the mushi-shi guy is defenitely fairly calm.

yeah i agree with you there...
watching it makes me feel so calm, even if crazy things keep happening - like all the mushi coming out of her eyes. i want to learn more about Ginko *looks at character profile*

This episode was a bit more thrilling than the first one. It was darker too. And mushis seem to be neither evil nor good. I wonder if they have consciousness.

Very, very nice. The first episode didn't impact me as this one did. Starting to get interested in this series, although I would've kept watching anyway because of the lovely art and music...

It has a slow, natural pace, but it still has the weird, supernatural theme.
And the art+sound/music is just amazing!

I like twists. And yeah, this anime maybe is supposed to symbolize a lot of things. But let me watch a few more before starting to guess stuffs.

When I saw those Mushis came out of Sui's eyes I was like.. O_o

Again, a superb ep yet w/ calm sensation..

This gives more mysterious supernatural feeling than the 1st ep..

The "river of light" kinda leaves a psychological thought on me..

Ahhh ~ ~

Even better than the first episode. Amazing series, indeed.

I just can’t help loving how such dark themes can be handled in that calm way, without seeming overly disturbing or gruesome. I enjoy a lot the supernatural occurrences.
I think, then procrastinate.
Therefore, I am.

This episode is better than the first episode.I'm so happy to find out that one of my favorite seiyuu is doing the voice of Biki. No wonder Biki's voice sounds so familiar.

Yeah, I thought that was a creepy and kind of disturbing episode, but... the show is entertaining somehow. I love the music.

So he's not getting his eye back or morphing another one somehow? D:

Who said this show was relaxing?? It makes me feel uneasy. Q^Q

It's like the calm part before some monster pops out of nowhere and eats you...

But that ending piano piece was amazing, and the concept of this show is very original!

For some reason, I find the little kids more interesting then Ginko atm.

I love it~

It makes me forget about everything for a while. I'm totally absorbed while watching it.

This episode was simultaneously creepy and sad, often at the same time. I love how the music, animation, art, and sound effects combine to create this really heavy atmosphere. Pretty amazing so far.

This was a very well told story. The only thing I would have changed is that I think the girl should have stayed blind. I always tend to feel that short stories should rarely have a happy ending and people must suffer the consequences of their actions, but maybe I have read too much of Ovid’s Metamorphosis. I did like how giving the girl his glass eye, we learned a lot about Ginko in a noninvasive way.
