Another intense episode.

Their world is just never safe heh...

I was kinda curious to see what other beasts there will be but so far, they don't look pretty. It's also good to know some of Kaisar's side of the story. I thought that was neat. Zombie infestation~

Kaisar has gained his own companion. Not sure which duo I like more, but they're both great.

Another good episode. Best anime of the season with Yona for me. I begin to play at the game. A new character with Rite.I thought she died, so good, she will follow Kaiser everywhere.

Pretty good ep once again :)

Liked Rita quite a bit. Glad she'll be staying as an undead :3 Should be a fun addition to the cast.

Nice to see some of Amira's backstory along with all the sides that will be playing a role in this series.

Also love the fact she can kick ass even without Demon mode. She was cute chasing the duck XD

And seems like Favaro found his info source for Helheim I guess XD I was expecting him to react to Amira having 1 million on her head :O He'll be sure to want that XD

Poor Kaisar ^^
Got tricked by that little girl.
This episode felt like it was way too short! The background story of Amira was pretty cool.

This is forming up to be AOTS material. Exposition is shown not just told, the implications are subtle and they give out the hints in a perfect manner (Rita in a nutshell).

Yeah, definitely great series so far. Hopefully it will be 2-cour, but it seems that it will be only 13 episodes or so. Anyway, I'm really enjoying the animation and the characters so far and we also got a bit of hint of the overall plot in this episode, that is the return of Bahamut. Next Monday can't come soon enough!

So the balance is starting to crumble eh...

We got to see angels at the start of the episode and demons later on, nice world they have there XD.

Their world sure is filled will all kinds of weird monsters.

So Kaisar was saved by a nice lil girl called Rita eh.

Aha, Amira is the one that has the God Key in possession... and she's actually the key since she merged with it lol.

Rita's older than Kaisar eh... I kinda sensed something was off with her and her family...

LOL, I was freaking sure Favaro and Amira would prove to be the so called "trolls" that were going to attack the village XD.

Okay... I wasn't expecting a zombie village...

Poor Kaisar T.T

Good for Kaisar that Rita is well... kinda... alive I guess lol...

What a blast to watch each week! The scenes in the god's domain are a little weird, but pretty much everything else looks phenomenal. Mappa sure knows what to do with cinematography and colour.

So Kaisar has a companion of his own now and Favarro and Amira are slowly becoming acustomed to each other, which is a nice development!

Pretty awesome, funny thing is I thought the target was her and not the book, I liked that switch. Also liked that they gave us some back story as well as showed us the implications for amira taking the key. I guess that contract dude is going to either take them to Helheim next week or tell them how to get there.

Hmm, apart from the beginning, this felt a lot like a filler episode. It's nice that we found out about Kaisar's past but he's just not as interesting as Favaro or Amira. And I don't like how we didn't get an explanation of how Rita didn't become a zombie. Or is she one now...?

Hopefully next episode will refocus back on the main duo.

All I have to say is...

"You know nothing Kaisar Lidfard"

I can see him becoming an exact, anime alternative of John Snow. The story about the family and all. Ahh cannot wait for more episodes, will watch them as long as this type of atmosphere, storyline, character&plot development continues. SnB has some potential of being one the 2014 greats. Pretty awesome episode in general

Probably has something to do with that umbrella with the skull on it.

Personally I think it is, it definitely has better designs that's for sure. I remember someone complaining about the bikini armour in the first episode, I thought it was a legit complaint until I saw that the angels and Jeanne all have golden armour or full body clothes.

As for animation, it certainly is cleaner than FSN.

A much slower and much more animeish episode. The revelation with Kaisar's past was sort of anticlimactic. But we haven't heard how Favaro ties in the story yet.

I don't know if I like Rita. It's good that Kaisar got a level-headed partner, but I hoped that he would join Favaro and Amira, also I am not sure that this show needed an undead loli.

And I must agree that I start to worry about the main plot. It's time it kicks in.

So Amira is one-winged not because she's some kind of half-blood but because she simply lost her wing in a battle... but it still doesn't explain how a demon could use techs only a god is supposed to be able to use.

What a great episode. I don't even care if it felt somewhat fillerish, there's probably going to be more little quest-type things happening, at least we know the series is shaping up to be something much more with the god key and such.

Kaisar gaining a necro loli as a companion, can anyone predict what's going to happen with this series? :D Entertaining stuff, again, I'm so glad I picked this up.

Amira literally being the God Key was somewhat unexpected to me, but I should have seen it coming.

Good episode that establishes more of Kaiser's backstory and gives him a traveling companion to boot.

Next episode: Reunion at Ysmenport, so I'm hoping the four of them finally team up.

The scene where she's talking about her mother in episode 2 clearly shows an angel cradling her.

Hands down yes. The animation and character design is far from the norm and very unique. Their design is something you hardly see everyday and such. Can't even explain the jizz material animation.

Wow! Three weeks in a row this show has been consistently solid. I'm so impressed, I'm officially not worried at all about how the show will turn out

Wonder what Kaisar and Rita will do together. I still think there's a chance all four of them will unite

Another solid episode from the surprise of the season. We now know what Amira has done and why she's being chased (we don't know why she did it though).

I love the contrast between Favaro and Kaisar. One takes everything very dramatically and the other doesn't take anything seriously at all.

So the reason she was able to steal the key is that she has Angle blood in here, and Probably knows some Techniques, too.

TBH I enjoyed it but I continuously feel this show is falling short every episode. Each one seems to have a ton of potential but never seems to realize it. It's the little annoyances here and there which prevent me from thinking this is great.

I'm hoping that this is a problem just to the first 3 episodes and that things start improving as the action and tension starts ramping up. Either way, I am still looking forward to next weeks episode.

Rita clearly that the only way to terminate a zombie is to cut off his/her brain (or damage the brain). Kaisar didn't do that.

The demons, humans and the gods! Quite the tension there already.

Amira's became the god key after taking it! To be able to use a god's power while being a demon.

The village Kaiser got into xD I knew something wasn't right with a girl dragging Kaiser in.
All the potions around, burning of the bounty, the food and just further hints Rita gave out.
The town being filled with zombies and Rita as the necromancer. Favaro came to destroy the book, Rita protecting her zombie parents but then was bitten. Really liked Rita's attitude ^^

It was nice seeing that Rita is going to be a traveling companion with Kaiser! She being a walking dead which is kind of interesting too.

I'm surprised that I am the only one so far that didn't like this episode at all. I don't think a serious tone fits this series.
Honestly, whenever they try to introduce parts of the lore or flesh out someone's backstory, it feels unnecessary and out of place. I just hoped for more great action and silly sketches with the characters.

I'm kind of let down, but the new zombie girl teaming up with Kaisar gives me hope for the next episodes.

So if a young girl appears in an anime, she's a loli? Really? Rita isn't even sexualized at all.

Great episode as usual.
