Holy neko this was awesome!

Shinchii has got to be the most unlucky guy alive. First his momma is killed by a Parasyte, then he dies and comes back with Parasyte cells flowing through his blood, then he has to kill the Parasyte who killed his mom which also now looks like her, then his relationship turns sour with Murano, then the only other girl he wanted to protect, Kana, dies right in front of her with him unable to save her. Wow. That's a lot of bad luck for him. What's more, people are starting to question his humanity. Dammit this is just freakin awesome.

I feel sorry for Kana. First the guy she loved gets taken away right in front of her eyes, then she also dies even though she was so cute. I don't like it when cute girls die. It's so wrong.

The way Shinchii took care of that Parasyte, damn. He put his strongest weapon, Migi, on defense and took on the Parasyte with his bare hands and ripped his heart right out of his chest. Damn!

This neko is even better than FSN UBW. Way more badassery here.

Could see that coming the moment the episode started with Kana having that same dream yet they managed to show the kiss.

I am more sad because I will miss Sawashiro Miyuki's voice in the rest of the anime.

Care to elaborate why you find Murano annoying? Put yourself in her shoes and go figure what you would have done if the person you loved has had the same amount of change in personality as Shinichi had in a matter of days.

Shinichi this episode...wow, just wow.
I love you man :)

Kana dying however, sad, sad day for me.

Also, wouldn't her newfound powers, kind of, both help her and put her at danger.
We learned parasites don't go after one another, non purposely at the very least.
So by sensing their presence and avoiding contact she could've remained completely safe? I mean, they have no reason to change direction to go after the signal, right?

But yeah, establishing contact woule've been a death sentence soooo....
Still, I'll miss her. Or, well, I'll miss a hot girl in this show :p

It is naive to think that she is the only human with that power.
Maybe there will be a police force with people with these abilities killing parasites.
But Kana dying is not the worst thing that could of happened.
Migi could have saved her like he did with Shinichi, that would be worse -
-Migi would be even weaker,
-There would be a romantic drama in Shinichi`s life.

THIS exactly. Kana was not simply a stalker she was a dumb stalker and her death was her fault only. Even with her new special ability if she had only stayed more cautious and not go to dark, deserted, creepy places on her own(sic!) she would be just fine. Besides she wasn't even smart enough to learn from her own mistakes. Even in this episode she has mistaken Shinichi with some other parasite at least once, what the hell was she thinking just strolling after him later?

I don't really understand all those comments describing her as "interesting" or "best". Her only motivation throughout the series was to date Shinichi and her absolute lack of reason was almost unbeliavable. The only thing I was able to think about when she got stabbed was JUST DIE ALREADY. And even if I am a bit harsh on her the sad truth is that if you don't think fast - you die fast.

Boys like it when a hot girl is straight forward with her feelings towards a guy i guess its pretty sexy.
But lets be real here.Most of here (normal humans) would be paranoid as fuck if we knew that there were blood thrusty aliens in our town.Would i pull a hair to check someone and risk my life in doing so?Would i call an alien for a private chat?Would i chase aliens that i could feel hoping that i dont find those that will murder me?No ofc -_-

YES! I'm so happy the worst girl in the series is dead. R.I.P. stupid fucking bitch.

How many times did he tell her dumbass to stay the fuck away from that signal 5-7 times? Then she becomes a fucking stalker psyco who wears his hair on her finger like a wedding ring LOL. This anime went from 8/10 to 10/10 with her death.

Words cannot express how happy I am right now.

This anime is freaking amazing. What a killer episode, i'm kinda fanboying right now. 10/10 so far.

I was already spoiled Kana would die (thank you, MAL), but it still hit me where it counts. I honestly liked Kana. Sure, at first she annoyed me with obsessing over Shinichi and i still find her dreams kinda stupid, but i actually found it cute that she genuinely believed they were destined for one another. At least she still liked him despite the fact that he had a parasite in him. She liked him when he was shy and reserved and she likes him now that he's more calm and serious... all of this makes her infinitely better than miss "You-are-Shinichi Izumi-right?". God, why couldn't Murano go instead?

As the standard for this show goes, all highschool girls are dimwits. Of course she couldn't just wait for Shinichi, no... still, it was sad how she really thought she could sense only him.

Migi's starting to listen to Shinichi, i'm actually surprised it was going to reveal itself to Kana. Shinichi just flipped his mental switch, he really went in for the kill with no remorse, like a true cold-blooded killer. I still can't believe he took out the guy's heart. Kana's death scene was actually pretty emotional.

The end was also amazing. I knew Shinichi was going to take the beating, but i didn't expect him to fight back. He's slowly drifting away from his humanity, but he's still there... "for now". Overall, it was a very nice end of the first half of Kiseijuu.

6/5

Tamiya Royko's back next time, and i hope that mayor gets killed soon.

Thing is, there was no purpose to her character in the story at all. She could've been non existant and it wouldn't have change anything about the story. I feel like the author had no idea what to do with her character, so he just killed her off so that Shinichi could've realised he wasn't really human anymore.

Too bad for Kana and also Shinichi not being sure whether his humanity has already lost control of himself or not. I really like how this episode was produced as a whole.

This was yet another amazing episode. I hope it keeps being this good or even better.

Best anime of the season is back after a one week hiatus!
Kana's death was predictable, but still played out well into the plot progression.

And that character development... before it seemed he matured but still wanted to hold onto his humanity. Now it seems he's letting go of that ideal little by little. Amazing episode as always.

At least you can learn something from her behavior and stupid decisions:
1) Don't lie to your friends
2) Listen to advices from your friends
3) Give up on someone you love if he already has a relationship
4) Don't be a stalker

Nothing groundbreaking or extremely relevant to the narrative, but she's not completely worthless..

And was that a hint of excitement in Migis voice at the beginning of the episode? Getting more and more human, I see..

This is going smoothly, Kana's death was a nice touch for Sinichi's character development. Sinichi's strength is constantly growing but he is having his emotions drained. Looking forward to him reaching apathy and becoming a battle-god...not.
