Whoahoho said: So either Steven is Chain's token or those garbages were her token. The situations itself is her Token. The note was numbered 4, and it simply said "Steven A. Starphase suddenly visits Chain's room". Chain hugging the trash was simply her last second effort to clean her room. Since it's numbered 4, I imagine chain wrote up some "situations" she wants to experience, rather than being tied to a "thing" Jk9 said: Are there a real plot here? Or only case per case? The original source manga is actually episodic, the first season was the one that wasn't actually "faithful" to the source. The Black White overarching plot was an anime original. |

| CHAIN-SENPAI is awesome <3 |
| Kekkai Sensen is such a weird experience for me. On the one hand I don't get anything at all/i don't remember anything from S1.. But it still seems enjoyable overall. |

| Lmao Chain was hoarding some stuff is a token or the pure innocent maiden embarrassment. I don't wanna let my love interest to see my dirty apartment too. I thought she was a mature cool beauty until the priceless hugging face appears. |

| Awesome Chain episode, I hope we can also get a Zed episode |
 |
| A chain episode was long overdue hell of a way to be brought back into existance, but hey could be worse her token coulda just been alcohol. |
The secret of Kekkai Sensen lies in the essence and peculiarity of each script, character and background staged, in the abrupt changes of context.. These details make the big difference, finally creating a good anime. 5/5  |
 |
| I'm impressed on how awesome this was <3 |
 |
| I wonder if Leo can see Chain when she's that deep into causality. |

| STEVEN IS CHAIN'S TOKEN. That Pairing ! Interesting part when the Ex-communicated werewolf says, 'We could have been billionaires, if you only listened to me'. I'm guessing it had something to do with robbing who knows what. Goes to show Chain and the other operatives have a high sense of integrity. |

The original source manga is actually episodic, the first season was the one that wasn't actually "faithful" to the source. The Black White overarching plot was an anime original. She only has one thing that ties her to this world, being Steven, as you see in the car when they say, 100% unadulterated tie to this world (ie. her thing for Steven). The Casper 4 thing is merely her call sign, so it isn't 4 different tokens. That would make the token kind of pointless imo. |

But why so many other "tokens" in her emergency protocol? Was one copy not enough? My understanding is that it works in the same way a Totem does in the movie Inception, where in this case its a tool you use to pull you back to reality. And considering her affection has been hinted since mid-volume 2 (pic), , I would surmise that they either all have something to do with him, or its a difference between anime and manga.  |
| Chain is so awesome! reducing/diluting herself smaller than the molecular level! 5/5. |
 |
| Will this have any real plot development until the finale... ? |
 |
| I love Chains. Even if she is an alcoholic slob. |
| idk wtf happened in this episode but i know one thing. the ED is better than the rest of this show and probably the best ED of the season |
| Objectivity doesn't exist. Subjectivity is an excuse. Beautiful world of online discourse. |
| I really like the fact that they are giving more screen time to characters who didn't show us before that much, although the result isn't that different because the only thing that the staff show us of the characters is how powerful they are besides some vague characteristics of their daily routines. In my case, I found very cute the fact that, literally, the reason that Chain "comes back to life" is to live an experience of that kind with the man she likes, although this one is very intense to notice it. I thought it was a nice detail and the highlight of the episode. Thanks, I have a new ship now. |
 |
| Maybe it's too soon to say fairly. But I think this season's still kind of struggling to come together. It doesn't have a cohesive overarching narrative. And it's still failing to give even a fraction of its main cast adequate screen time every episode. That said an episode like this was long overdue. In the anime Chain has been an enigmatic wild card for too long. What are the extent and scope of her powers? What is her motivation and backstory? For gods sake what's her personality even like? This episode gave us some much needed insight into all of these. It was a little dumb. A little under explained. And I can't help but feel that this season has gotten even more fetishy in uncomfortable ways. Can't help but notice it's a man in the director's chair this time too. But the climax of the Werewolves mission was pretty great. And I thought the ending joke was solid too. Hope Zapp gets redemptive screen time where he's not a punching bag soon. |
 |
| We need to see more of Chain! Her group it's pretty good too...also, she is damn lazy girl, her room is like trash! lol |
 |
kaimax said: Yeah, it's really subtle that the universe was slowly replacing or undoing anything Chain did. -The white vase she bought, was suddenly changed into a different vase -the Burger dude, forgetting stuff again. -Even Steven forgot on why he was standing in front of her room for an instant. Also curious if her Tokens are different everytime, seeing this was the 4th token. Thanks. I didn't realize this, either, even though I knew something was up with the constant focus on the vase. Anyway, great episode. Chain is so cool! |
| Another rushed episode. Everything is so fast, for example, the generic villain. Still with lack of cohesive narrative, 2/5 |

Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Was the Chain X Steven thing ever hinted at in season 1?? I've seen lots of fanarts of them together too but to me it just seems to come out of nowhere? Or was I not paying attention lol |
| Did Chain and ice dude always have a thing for each other? I don't remember much about the first season. |
 Three things cannot be long hidden.. ...the s u n, the m oo n, and the tr u th. |
| We had to wait until season 2 but finally we get an episode focused on Chain (my favorite character) and I was not disappointed. It was cool to find out that the werewolves don't just go invisible they partially fade out of existence. Though I'm still a little confused about the werewolf thing. I'm pretty sure now it's just the name of her group and she can't actually turn into a bipedal wolf :p |
 |
| It’s nice to see Chain getting more screen time in this season. The team she is part of seems like such a rag tag bunch of covet operatives. And one that has rather unorthodox methods of completing their objectives! New is back! I’m glad that even after what happened in season 1 Nej and Leo can still have a friendship. Also nice to see they didn’t change! Didn’t know that Chain also had such a fun side but it’s great to see some character development! But she really needs to tidy up that flat xD Then the free fall infiltration was incredible! This power they have seems really powerful but now it makes sense why they need such a strong attachment to the real world. Thought it was all over when they were captured but Chain is unbelievable! Finally got to see her abilities in action - Existence Dilution - against a formidable foe. Thought she’d be lost for good to save her team. But nice work Steven ;) |

| A pretty random episode, but lol that ending! Let's see what's next. |

When was it ever that and how does it increase an aspect that was never there? |
 |
| Interesting choice of powers for werewolves, definitely taking steps away from any cliches. |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Haven't finished the series yet, but I'm pretty sure this is the best episode ever. |
| One of the most interesting episodes of the anime series, because it explains something about the elusive character of Chain and shows new characters that I would like to know much better. Intriguing and very funny narration, excellent backgrounds and the BGM. |
 |
| Great to see an episode about best girl Chain and her squad.... with their high accuracy shooting rate lol of 94 rounds and 0 hits. Interesting to know a little more about the invisible werewolf power, and to see who Chain has a crush on ain't that right lucky bastard Steven ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) |
 |
| Rip Zapp yet again. Chain being awesome as usual. I just hope that things start to make sense soon |
 |
| I'm loving this! More screentime for Chain, that's what we want. 94 round and they didn't hit a single shot? xD LVL 100 aim. Leo and our Mushroom man going out for Burgers again, the noises he made were too funny. |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| I don't remember this whole token/anchor system being explained before but nice episode. Chain is nice, also who wouldn't fall for Steven, he's so badass. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| amazing power she has!!! kekeke |
| Poor Chain, Steven being her token and him coming to visit when her place is dirty. She just doesn't have the time to clean! |
