| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Shit, that escalated. A group of guy in suits coming to ambush Ushio.. I feel bad for Tora as he got hit by some electricity and tortured (part of his plan though). I swear, the scientists in this series are just too damn cruel. Kinda creepy about the experimentation and shit going down there.. Thrilling episode. One more left for the season D: The action was pretty good seeing Ushio in action. Also felt a bit bad for Bal-chan.... |

| Thought this was the final episode lol but I really enjoyed this Those scientists are cruel but I don't think they deserve to die....Imprisoned yes though, and I feel really bad for Bal so I hope that they can save him Tora's entrance at the end was awesome |
| Those scientists are dicks, but from their POW, ghosts and youkai are evil and dangerous. |
 |
I'm kinda pissed that Ushio bothered saving those 3 scientists.  |

| Asako and Ushio got involved in a lot of trouble with those scientists who were up to no good (which seems to be quite common among scientists in anime). Lol at Tora's badass entrance at the end. You can always count on him at the last second. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| Those scientists are such scumbags, ugh. I also love it though when characters like that are designed in a way that shows it too, creepy looking lol. I loved how excited Tora was at the end too, he's probably just as hype as we are for next episode! Lol |
| Where's your science now?! XD F*Ck Science, supernatural all the way. |
 |
| Behold the Hakumen no Mono rock and the random youkai Asako met ! Ushio sure has some feels for the beast spear blacksmith and his family Asako's voice really doesn't fit some of her angry faces. It sure is Tora action time.  |
| Nice episode, those scientists are really annoying. I'd let them die lol. |
| The three scientist are cruel and that things, but I see why they act like that (that scientist woman's eyes are creepy as fuck, btw). Tora comes to save the day at the end of the episode! That was badass. |
 |
| A savior has come !!! :D |

| 4/5 |

| That old lady looks just as ugly as one of Hakumen no Mono's avatars herself, and the whole team reminds me of Nazi scientists. I seriously hoped that Ushio let them die instead of saving them. Those scientists were probably muted during Ushio's intensifying monologue because they were listing the chemical makeup of humans, since the blacksmith's body is literally the shaft. That would make sense for why Ushio got more and more angry the more they talked about their analysis of it. Interesting abilities never before seen that Tora used...never knew it also acted like a homing beacon. Overall, I'm glad Ushio displayed some decent spear-fighting by fighting off those men in black without activating the beast spear--finally shows he's not completely dependent on it's mystical power, and retained some experience unlike some pitiful displays in previous episodes. I fear we may not finish the series in time with Hakumen no Mono's defeat with only one more episode left...and if we do, it'll likely be rushed. Here's hoping they green-light it for sequel to really flesh it out. |

| Damn poor Bal-chan T^T , next week Tora action time baby ~ |
| Fuck those scientists |
 |
| Why do I get the feeling this show has something against science? I mean last episode a demon that looked just like Albert Einstein was eating peoples brains now these scientists are horrible and this stuff about a savior (Tora) will come makes me think there's some religious message behind all this. Also dammit Asako, You had 1 job nice work leaving it until the last second, Also you suddenly care about 1 of the ghosts because it looked like a boy? What about all the others that Ushio killed? Anyway this season is pretty much finished and Ushio is still pretty much useless without the spear and constantly gets beat and caught surprised Tora hasn't just eaten him at this point. |

Here's hoping they green-light it for sequel to really flesh it out. That's because it's split-cour. There'll be 13 more episodes completely dedicated to the endgame against Hakumen no Mono in Spring '16. |
| at this point i'm still wondering how Tora hasn't eaten Ushio yet , seriously almost each episode ( i'm exaggerating of course ) Tora saves him . just when i thought Ushio got stronger . and again isn't Ushio way too nice ? i mean dude these guys torture ghosts even innocent ones , they've captured you and the girl you love just to make sure you cooperate with them and you save them , seriously ?!

Totally the whole episode i was hypnotised by her creepy eyes . That woman is dead inside . |
 |
| Crazy scientists now. If everyone that wanted to take out Hakumen no Mono pooled their resources instead of trying to want to it out on their own, things wouldn't be quite as dramatic for everyone. |

| Damn this ep was sooooo good. We some more weirdos, good youkai's and a little of DRAMA. I've got to say, that stepping on the hair was a bit too dramatic imo, but it sure paid off when Tora came in rushing witch excitement. Too bad that theres only 1 ep left :/ |
| Sigh, the first cour's gonna end next week. It's been a helluva ride from episode 10. <3 |

In fact, at first I though that the woman was an avatar of the Hakumen until she showed terror for that spider-like Hakumen avatar. |
|
| This was interesting to see some government involvement and then with the scientist. That was a nicely timed yawn, and that was quite the entrance Tora made, with one pull making such a transition from being "I want to go home" mode to battle one. |
 |
| The most "high" is in the final episode gets along well together, beautiful drawings and good animations, I hope that in the next episode we gift a thrilling clash and closing off the season in the best possible way. |
 |
| Damn those scientist. This is a wake up call for them I guess Tora the Savior to the rescue |
| Weird episode. Felt like it almost came out of nowhere, with the scientists and the H.A.M.M.R institute(or whatever). |
| I didn't care about the first part of the episode all that much, but Tora is such an entertaining character to watch that it doesn't bother me at all. I love him <3. |
 |
| Tora sure has been bonding with Ushio's girls lately XD |
 |
| Given the prominence in the OP I figured this would be at least a two parter, although it was starting to look like they'd manage to fit everything into one ep, but I guess my first instinct was right. I'm guessing the third cour will start with The Sky Reflected in His Eyes. |
 |
| Tora gets all the epic entrances! Those scientists were awful in the manga, and they're awful here! |
Bum Bum Dum Dum |
| Tora is so powerful! It was so cool when he went like a flash to save Ushio and Asako. |
 |
| How could I have never heard of Kirlian photography before? Thanks for bringing that up with all the kirlian levels talk. Interesting episode. |
 |
| Why fillers now T^T |
| Tora's entrance was so badass. That why I like this anime. |
Duboki said: Why have we gotten a filler at the end of the season. This isn't filler, it was in the manga. -_- |
| Bum Bum Dum Dum |
| Tora has a lot of neat tricks that are suddenly appearing NOW when they probably would've been helpful much earlier on. I mean, he can make clones of people using his hair??? Surely that would've come in handy before! |

| Asako leg service was awesome. Btw, looking at Tora entrance i concluded that Tora seems more like the hero of the story that Ushio. |
| sigh-... this episode felt like one of those super-lame, super-predictable kind of movies you see for little kid's shows-.... i didn't expect that kind of thing from this anime, you disappoint me, episode 25 .3. ! i haven't even read the manga, but this episode feels like it's screaming 'filler' all over the place _xp |
 I like to comment Episodes as i Watch them. |
| People really think this comes across as filler? What? Seriously, what? I'm already looking forward to the next batch. I gotta see more about the past, China, the spear, and Hakumen. And holy hell, I just looked at the manga; there's like at least a 50 chapter skip between last episode and this one. Some of them look pretty critical to the plot... so I'm guessing most will be skipped, but the critical ones will be rearranged for the second half; there's no way they can cut those, I'd think. |

| Life can be cruel and unfair. At worst it can traumatize and cripple you. The desire for wanting things to return to the way they were can cost everything and changes nothing. The best way is to keep moving forward, struggle on. Anger can be powerful but can only get you so far. Let people into your life even if some of them leave you in time. Fight. Like. Hell. For everything and everyone you love. Always. |
| Damn, I hate those scientists with a burning passion. |
 |
| Dat crash. They shot Ushio. Of course that piece of HnM would become a monster. Bal got absorbed. It's over 90,000! Tora moving at the speed of light. |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
