Everyone in the entire show is reaching insane levels of stupidity.
I feel like the only characters I can give a shit for is Mitsumunae and Masaki.

Beyond stupid. How dumb are these people? "SHE HAS TO BE THE GHOST LETS KILL HER". These controlling delusional shit heads can't find someone to blame so they just pin it on her.

Also I think she's a villager

Still filled with problems, but its weird not being able to laugh at any of the problems. Its finally taking on the roll of serious, yet its keeping its ridiculous and over the top story. Pretty good.

These people really are scum and stupid, I just want to punch them in the face with the exception of a few.
Also Mitsumune's past really was fucked up. How can people allow the mother to do that to her son to help deal with her loss. Get her help.
Also fuck that cliffhanger.

I can barely bear watching this. that was the worst episode so far
the characters and the storyline are so shallow. I like observing the crowd's reaction but there are ALWAYS lots of other characters' pointless lines yet Masaki can't say a word when it's so important. and they always finish the episode with a cliffhanger but the next episode turns out to be even worse lol well done

Interesting that Mitsumune was punched by his penguin, but none of the rest were hurt by their monsters. Or did he imagine that?

Also, really liking that intense song that was at the end of ep5 as well. Kinda reminds me of the epic-unexpected-but-totally-expected-plottwist-uh-i-am-secretly-a-boss-battle-that-you-are-going-to-lose-for-story-reasons tracks from the 'tales of' games.

i still don't understand why they just let lovepon do whatever she wants.
i don't understand why they pinned down the MC instead of the guy with the knife.
i don't understand why they think she's a ghost.
i don't understand how they just completely forgot about the 3 missing characters.
i don't understand why they went to find a "ghost" with rope, salt, and stakes.

this might be the best episode though. i didn't facepalm until the last 5 minutes.

That's fucked up, the mom's favorite twin dies because he's a retard, and then you make a little kid act as another person in front of his crazy mother. What the hell man, that got me mad. No wonder he left, Mitsumune's basically "dead" in his world.

Speedstar really wants to kill that girl, huh. I do believe she's got something to do with all this (hopefully that's what she's revealing next episode), but by now it should be obvious Masaki isn't a ghost. Fucking crazy people, man.

Speedstar seriously disappointed me. I liked that guy up until this episode where he pretty much became obsessed with Mitsumune and lost all sense of sanity.

I can technically say the same thing with the rest of the group since they are seriously willing to "take out" Masaki with barely any proof of anything. The heck?

Nanko and Lion though. haha Those two are the real MVP.

I just hate how each time Masaki is going to say something, she keeps getting interrupted. I can't wait till next episode to find out what happens.

This anime is still very exciting for me and I am anticipating every episode. It's not horror, but more psychological mystery. I love it.

What the hell is wrong with them? Is it XV century? Burning ghost?Killing ghosts with knives? How retarded they can be? I know they are scared etc but this is too much...
It seems that they are Ok when Lovepon is taking care of the situation? ffs guys she is sick.
I feel really bad for Masaki :/ But i still wonder how she passed through the penguin? Maybe because he isn't her fear?And she can only see it but she doesn't actually believe it.
Poor Mitsumune :/ Being called almost all of your life by a name that doesn't belong to you...
And now he is the only one who believes Masaki.
That ending!!! I was so happy to finally know her secret and them "bam" next episode...
I need episode 8 now xD

If you actually watched the video subbed for once, you would know that his mother wasn't very nice and completely erased his existence with his brother's so she could cope, making him realize that she never cared about him at all and it was always his brother that was favored. What's the point of watching anime if you don't even know what's going on half the time? Is it really worth being the first person to post for e v e r y s i n g l e a n i m e if you don't ever actually enjoy the experience?


That's something that I think you would be able to grasp even without subs. There were enough visual cues to know what's going on, I think. On another note, his statement could have just as easily been sarcasm.

I don't want to derail this thread with a pointless argument, but I will just say this. 1) People enjoy mediums differently, so I don't think it's fair to assert your definition of enjoyment as the "proper" way. 2) The only way to get good at understanding what's going on without subs is to simply watch them without subs. Even if you don't understand what's going on 50% of the time, you will eventually get better. You can't just wait until you're 100% and then start watching things raw because...that's impossible. A bit of a catch 22. That's why so many Japanese learners (or language learners in general) never get very good at it.

Anyway, apologies for slightly derailing the thread. I just found that attack to be somewhat unfair. Especially since others used it as an opportunity to "jump" him (although, I'd hardly call simply saying "agreed" "jumping"...). But I've made my case, so I won't derail it any further.

---

Anyway, back on topic. I think that I'm actually understanding Mistumune for once. He seemed so annoying, but now that I know just why he is the way that he is, I can appreciate him a bit more. I'm glad that I was able to see his backstory. Hayato is getting more annoying though. Someone needs to put him in his place. Just like Lovepon. Having a messed up past doesn't give you an excuse to just treat people any way that you want.


No one jumped on Stark, so let's clear that up right now, there were just people agreeing with Kurapikasass. What Kurapikasass did was point out how ridiculous it is that Stark has to post first for nearly every single episode discussion thread while clearly not understanding the episode due to watching it raw (Just to be first).

Kurapikasass never derailed the topic but literally pointed out how saying Mitsumune's mom was nice completely went against what was actually portrayed in the episode. I feel like you jumped in for the wrong reasons, god forbid someone point out Stark's bullshit for once. Anyway I'm done derailing the thread myself now :p

Plot Twist:

It was actually Mitsumune who died that day, not Tokimune.

Then, Tokimune started to think that he was Mitsumune, so everyone except for his mother started calling him by that name. His mother isn't the crazy one, he is.

He needs to remember who he really is if he wants to beat the monster.

I haven't read the manga or anything, so this is all just speculation on my part, but it makes sense right?

Edit:
What if everyone thinks that he really is Mitsumune, while his mother is the only one who realizes that he actually is Tokimune!?

In my opinion, the content of the episode was nice, MC backstory, some character development... but the episode itself was a giant mess

Like trying to make the Mona Lisa with a Paintball gun!!! It was like the producers noticed that they had 6 episodes left, but material for 12 more episodes, so they started throwing us everything they had!!

Unlike the other 6 episodes, this one felt rushed and more fast paced than it should, losing some of its mystery charm, and the bombing of scene after scene made it hard to focus on the episode.

Anyways, about what happened this episode

- Mitsumune backstory was quite sad, and explained a lot about him
- Apparently Hayato is a Gay yandere
- Everyone is acting crazy!!
"Hey, stop that guy! He's trying to stab someone! Hey stop that guy! He's trying to stop him!"
- A well used cliffhanger imo
- The dectective girl has some screen time

Anyways, the chapter itself was nice, but all the stuff that happened could fit easily and better in 2 or 2 1/2 episodes... and probably I left some grammar mistakes, but its too late and I'm to tired to check this and fix it.

P.S.: Was I the only one that felt the lip syncing kinda odd for the first 5 minutes of the episode? Or was my internet connection?

That name shit was quite stupid but at least it was interesting.

The two angry gits are very annoying. ...well actually most of them are but this week them in particular

No real comments on the rest...this is one strange series, but if the producers are purposefully making the cunts look hateable and dangerous, then they are doing well. It may conclude to some kind of social commentary on mob psychology or something

Which doesn't make this good but at least gives it half depth

That's... actually a good point

No, it's really not that much of a good point.
Urban legends and abandoned places are a huge thing in Japan, and not only do several TV-shows broadcast specials on such places, especially young people also like to visit them for fun, for tests of bravery, or out of actual interest. Running away to such a place is kind of out there as a concept, but it wouldn't take completely socially dysfunctional people.

Above that, the level of social dysfunctionality and almost schizophrenic behaviour these characters display, makes it highly unlikely that they would have the capabilities to take part in a trip like this.

Becauuuuuuuuse....the penguin was with his brother when he slipped and fell...so it's Mitsumune's fault because...he wanted the penguin and so...his mother...and...
Nope, I've got nothing...would have been more conclusive if he saw an aparition of his mother or his brother trying to eat him or something

It makes sense.

Mitsumune falls off the roof and dies.

Tokimune, blaming himself, starts to act like (and convinces himself that he is) Mitsumune.

Their mom, the only person who was around when it happened, knows that Tokimune is alive and Mitsumune is dead. However everyone else thinks that she is crazy.

I find it surprising that Mitsumune having a twin came as a surprise to anyone. I mean, during the first or second episode we had a flashback where his mother hugged an identical twin instead of him. As if this didn't raise enough flags, Speedstar commenting on his name and him falling head over heels for some chick who simply said his name was cool should've made it even clearer.

Wasn't 100% sure about him pretending to be his brother, though, but now it is confirmed. Also, the plush toy belonged to Mitsumune, not Tokimune, as I guessed wrong in the previous thread.

I think that all she wanted to say is that they are all dead.
She's the only one alive, like a guide.
And the village is some sort of a purgatory, where you will face your fears and deepest evil intentions and based on the outcome - either go through the tunnel into the light or will be devoured aka go to hell.
Dunno, just my speculations.

If last week's silicon monster didn't already prove to be hilarious enough, this episode was pretty amusing. Anger-management issues first tried to stop Hayato and then stopped Mistu from stopping Hayato was just bizzarely funny. Hayato is still my favourite character.

,@ TheToad

Also, why is it it Mitsumune (if he is the real one) sees the fence from first person point of view if it was Tokimune who climbed the fence and perished. Either Mitsumune is Tokimune or the two kids climbed the fence.
I really thought the mom liked more the obedient child at first, moreover their names are somewhat related - Mitsuko and Mitsumune. The "unruly" behavior in children is often related to attracting attention and Tokimune wouldn't "sorry" and cry his eyes out while unconscious if he doesn't feel guilt and/or self-pity. Bottling this down for years, might be indeed next to "explosion".

Anyway, true or not, it's a darker route and I indeed liked theToad's idea.
