2nd time I've seen Sagara to be so much angry! (1st time, in the first battle of Gauron on 1st season)..

Emotionless Sagara, to be so much angry, I'm so anticipated of what will going to happen next ep.

That haircut scene was really intimate and really sweet. I always get sleepy when someone cuts my hair, and I'm glad they showed that part here because the subtext is one of absolute trust.

Wow that really is something. I didn't even really think about it considering what was going on.

An episode that goes so well and then goes terribly wrong at the end. I can't blame Sousuke for that punch. It takes a lot to really piss him off, but that order right there did it. After such a great moment with Chidori he's being literally cut away from her.

This had so many nice moments too. I bet Sousuke was so happy when Chidori considered getting a weapon. It was like "yes! I've been waiting for this moment." You know it's true because he dumps a ton of stuff on the table.

That was the best haircut scene ever. It really says a lot that he let her do it, but also that he could fall asleep. For someone living the type of life Sousuke has that definitely makes clear how much he trusts her.

I really wonder about Tessa there. True it was probably going to be pushed forward anyways. But there was a lack of fighting against it even though she should have known Sousuke would be against it. Wonder if any part of her was thinking that this was a good thing. Sousuke would be separated from her main competition and she'd get to spend more time with him, win/win really. Though not saying that was her main motivation since that would just by selfish. Majority was probably just not feeling comfortable fighting against the suggestion.

Really good ep,
The haircut scene was perfect, and the sexual tension between Chidori and Sousuke is getting crazy!
The black mech was probably behind Sousuke's removal right? I mean is Mithril really that dumb because without Sousuke, I bet Chidori will just get kidnapped again...

the haircut scene was perfectly done. the script, lack of music, the tension...just very well done.

to top that off, the end with the laptop was the icing on the cake. Sousuke's reaction was very unexpected and strong, but very appropriate

my fav episode of TSR,

This episode was freaking amazing. That haircut scene was so perfectly directed, the tension was almost tangible. Like restore said, the lack of music really made a huge effect, the pauses, the dialogue, and everything else was utterly perfect. What a strange series this is, that the scene so intense that it makes me forget to even blink is a haircut scene.

Best episode so far and probably better than anything in the first season too. The scene with Sousuke at the salon was hilarious "towel towel towel towel..." and the haircut scene with Kaname was one of my favourite scenes in the whole series. I never expected Sousuke to snap like that at the end though, I wonder what he'll do in the next episode.

I really, really liked this episode. The calm mood is a nice change of pace (taking into account Sagara never really has a rest) And the ending made me drop my jaw... O_O

I'm pretty sure the one new guy guarding Chidori is the same guy that saved the group in the last episode during the car chase, whom is most likely Tessa's brother mentioned some episodes ago.

Wow, what an amazing episode! By far the best so far.

The hair-salon scene was, of course, absolutely incredible. Probably funnier than almost anything in Fumoffu, to be honest. But it really makes sense, considering Sosuke's history and temperament.

This, of course, builds to the single most romantic moment between Sosuke and Chidori so far in the series. Beautifully directed and animated. I was on the edge of my seat.

This is also a well-balanced episode, however, as we get the seductive twins using their sex appeal to disarm and then brutally slaughter a group of henchmen in order to steal an AS unit. Who is their sensei and what beef does he have with MITHRIL?

We also get Gates masturbating to videos of kittens!

The ending is powerful and shocking, and I think this will take the show down darker paths than it has ever gone before.

Oh, and I know she must have her reasons for capitulating, but still: Tessa, you bitch!

5/5 by far. Awesome, awesome episode.

That haircut scene was really well done. It had a great atmosphere to it and really shows how Kaname and Sousuke have furthered their relationship.

LOL at Gates fapping to videos of cute animals. As if we needed any further incentive to conclude that he's insane and looney as all hell. XD
