| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Mm, a lot of narratives from Kureha...and not only that, the amount of symbolism continues to follow in this show. Didn't take long for the others to make their move against the bears. SHOOT. That's actually a pretty cruel way to get rid of some of the bears tbh. Not that I should be surprised at the unorthodox methods used but really, a ray gun machine? |
 |
| I didn't see the ep because i don't find the raw but a ray gun machine? Lol where Edit: this was a quiet episode, i don't know why they in the official picture of yuri kuma they drawed Oniyama and not Oki...anyway a shock ending after the ED...i didn't expect, Kureha is in the S**t. |

| Lulu is jealous of kureha yet she helped kureha for ginko's sake & got banned from being a girl. Messed up 8/10 |

| That a gun tho O_O It's about freaking time that Kureha opened her eyes...Her moments with Lulu were very sweet in this episode :) But alas poor Lulu/Best Girl got the short end of the stick TwT Finding out what happened at the end of her mom's book was great....The ending of it was predictable but it was still cute That cliffhanger makes me feel like something bad is going to happen.... |
| Yet more hints at the "perception of the world" and what is a girl and what is a bear, because the separation between the worlds does not make sense in physical sense. Either way all comes back to the court of severance holding control over them both. Till that wall between "girl" and "bear" breaks, they will continue dictating the rules and making people chose. Once that "wall"("the Mirror") is broken , there will be only one world, one where its inhabitants can see and approve more than their own images of their own preferences and lifestyles. The show continues to carry a VERY strong message upon labels and prejudice. |
 |
| So... is it possible that Kureha once was a bear, but doesn't remember it? That way it would make more sense why she lost her memories. Her amnesia was the price. |
| Now everyone is after Kureha, wow! And Lulu is on the other side of the door of friends. I don't know if we will ever see her again :/ Kureha on the trial surprised me, i don't know what to think about that though. |
| Maybe it's actually about abandoned dogs :-D < /troll > |
| It was a good episode. The highlight was Kureha and Lulu, especially when Kureha was carry Lulu(in bear form) to the Doors of Friendship. I thought it was nice when Kureha hug Lulu and said "I won't let a friend be excluded!" But damn did she really have say no she's not her friend before Lulu went inside the Doors of Friendship? Maybe said that to save Lulu's life from being killed from the school girls or she really meant that? I understand she hates bears because Yurika was the one who killed her mother but still. |

| Loved the interactions between Kureha and Lulu this episode. From the bath scene until the moment she saw her off were really nicely done. Chuko was probably suspecting Kureha from the start, seeing how the bitch caught her off-guard. >.< Was the Ginko at the end, planning to eat Chuko? o.O Decent episode. Yuri trial for Kureha should be something interesting to look forward to. |
 |
| The interaction between Kureha and Lulu were very, very good and explained why Kureha couldn´t rememberd about her time with Ginko. The "Goodbye" - scene made me sad, especially because of the things Kureha said to Lulu. I know she did that on purpose, but still... ;w; Kureha in the Yuri trial now. I wonder what will happen next. |
| Holy Madoka! The Yuri is strong here! My Anime List  |
| These cliffhangers are killing me!! |
  |
| I enjoyed this episode, but some of the symbolism was a bit heavy-handed. I cringed at the whole "I've revealed the secret of how the patriarchy dictates if, and under what conditions, lesbians get to be normal girls; this is what 'they' hate the most, so now I can never be a normal girl again" part. The radical message, per se, doesn't bother me, but the delivery struck me as obnoxious. Still, I'm excited to see how things wrap up. |

| Hmm why was Ginko sent back in the first place? That's... not creepy at all. Yay, a happy ending? No underwear too lol, so daring Kureha. Everyone's feelings of each other seem to change all the time. The inconsistency is really throwing me off, making this anime even more confusing. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO oh wait, what? F*ck that's so cute and sad. Deja vu. Ouch, that was cold Kureha. Ginko will sav/e/at(?) Kureha! |
| Whenever I watch this...I just think: "Kureha is kind of a bitch". Like she treats everyone like shit, and is in denial all the time. Cant blame her class for wanting to exclude her. Piss her off and she shoots you and wont call you her friend. Seriously, Lulu went totally out of her way for her, even losing her ability to be a girl, and Kureha wont even call her a friend. I would assume bears can outrun humans too, so Kureha carrying Lulu didn't really mean dick. I like happy endings, but I kind of want to see Ginko eat her just as a form of karma. Anyway...so everyone is going up against Kureha now; the class, Ginko in the bushes...and even the Court of Severance?

Once that "wall"("the Mirror") is broken , there will be only one world, one where its inhabitants can see and approve more than their own images of their own preferences and lifestyles. Yea this basically means that Shaba da-doo is pretty much the true antagonist. They say they are following Kumalia's will, but they are the ones who dictate what is cool/sexy/acceptable. They are the ones who make people choose and sacrifice things to cross the wall. If the wall between "bears" and "humans" was torn down, there would be 1 world and the CoS wouldn't be able to dictate things anymore. Lulu would have had to make any of the sacrifices she made. |
| Ok, so maybe this has already been answered, but I still don't get it... "Death" = Exclusion....Right? So....where are all the people that have "died"? I mean, they didn't really die in the sense of their existence being gone forever.... Or are all the people that have died not really people but metaphors? Like that girl that "ate" Sumika....she was actually Ginko's "desire" or some shit like that? And Sumika is a representation of something too....right? But then.....ARGH....I don't think I'll ever properly understand all of this.... |
| Lulu doesn't get shot because Kureha save her, so who is that unlucky bear? If the judgement can turn bear into human, then can it also turn human into bear? Will we see Kureha with bear form? Also, does the judgement ever denied "yuri" ? |
| When kureha opens the door of friends reminded me Narnia. |
Xenocrisi said: That's it! I was thinking of Narnia as well. I knew that it reminded me of something, but I couldn't put my finger on it, haha.When kureha opens the door of friends reminded me Narnia. |

| Xenocrisi said: When kureha opens the door of friends reminded me Narnia. Yeah. the wardrobe in "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe". |

Piss her off and she shoots you and wont call you her friend. Yes, of course, because having her mother killed by a bear and then being indoctrinated and misled by the person who took over caring for her (who she trusts and believes) yet still feeling like the beliefs and views she's being taught don't fit her, being excluded by her class from well before the series started because of this, losing her only friend (who is also her lover) to a bear thus bringing back all the hatred and rage toward bears from when her mom was killed on top of what she's feeling from losing Sumika, and now having all sorts of things happen and vague memories resurface that are causing her to further question herself and the world she lives in just means she's "kind of a bitch". Are we even watching the same show? Jonesy974 said: Seriously, Lulu went totally out of her way for her, even losing her ability to be a girl, and Kureha wont even call her a friend. I would assume bears can outrun humans too, so Kureha carrying Lulu didn't really mean dick. I thought it was obvious, but that was a lie. Kureha told her that to hopefully keep her from trying to cross back through the Wall so she wouldn't get found and killed. Also, Kureha carrying Lulu may not have meant much in the incredibly literal way you mention, but it did mean a lot in terms of Kureha's character. She's come to realize quite clearly that Lulu and Ginko, despite being bears, care about her and that she truly cares about them. She's trying to protect Lulu, who both she and Ginko care about. That's a huge change from how she was before. There's also the clear parallel between what Kureha did for Lulu and what her mom did for Ginko. So, yes, Lulu may have been able to run faster than Kureha, but that's hardly the important thing in that sequence of events. |
Grungehamster said: So in order for yuri or kuma to interact without undergoing judgment, they were going in the (freestanding furniture) closet? Yes. The bears that come out of the closet are hunted and killed. |
|
| The mirror imagery has proved a very strong way in gradually getting its messages across. The Door of Friendship is just too clever lol. Fai's idea of the Court being a representation of viewers that dictate what is cool in yuri etc was strengthened by that "Rule is cool" line. Well and the fact that they are actively dictating the rules of interaction between the two groups. |
 |
CookingPriest said: Grungehamster said: So in order for yuri or kuma to interact without undergoing judgment, they were going in the (freestanding furniture) closet? Yes. The bears that come out of the closet are hunted and killed. But what does "Kill" really mean? Where do they go? Where is Sumika and the Mom and everyone else.... |
| Episode that brings clarity even on the few mysteries that still exist, despite the linearity of the plot, I still find it interesting history. Finally, we can also understand more about the court of love. Drawings and animations excellent, can not wait to find out how the story will end. Hilarious review Konomi version cyborg. LOL |
 |
| You know, this show would have been much more interesting as a deconstruction of both yuri and yaoi, and the similarities and differences in the tropes they use. As of now, however, this show is a cognitively dissonant mess. It's an indictment of fanservice while reveling in it. In its fantasy world only queer women matter in the slightest. There aren't even any men besides three humanized depictions of the patriarchy and one tiny brother who...is a humanized depiction of the patriarchy. But whatever, people will be yelling from the rooftops about how this is the GREATEST SHOW EVAA because Iku-fucking-hara made it. Fuck me. |
| Damn, almost cried. Lulu is such an awesome character. |
 |
| Kureha lost her mesmeries of Ginko because Gnko gave up her love for Kureha. Lulu is sent back to the Kuma to be protected. Kureha reanacing her mother saving Ginko Kureha being Judged???? |
| I really don't think i'm smart enough for this show. I feel like im missing ALL the symbolism. I REALLY don't understand Kureha's actions at all. |
| Be sure to message me if you quoted me and want me to respond! Just give me a link to the forum, because usually I leave my comment, then leave the forum. |
| You were amazing Kureha! protecting and saving Lulu from those swat girls/KMTG special whatever vehicle. So that garden was really a secret passage across Severance which serves as portal to the Kuma world. This time Ginko might be again the one to save Kurechin! 1st time Kureha seen those danzetsu trios! since its always phone on all the previous contacts (i like that specialized ringtone this episode!) |

| Lulu is best girl. 2 more episodes to go, and now Kureha being judged by the court. |
| Poor Lulu :( Hope she'll be fine on that side. AvatarJinzo said: But damn did she really have say no she's not her friend before Lulu went inside the Doors of Friendship? Could have been to prevent Lulu from trying to come back. I mean as you said she "won't let a friend be excluded". Wouldn't make sense to say it like that if she didn't think of Lulu as a friend. |
