Sakura is adorable lol. I love her character chemistry with the others this episode.

That looks like a special kind of tea party for Nene. Very unique setting as I had expected from this adaptation. The only thing I'm bummed about is that they seemed to have skipped a volume (the Mermaid arc)

No comments and only 3 votes? I guess lots of people are having problems viewing it on the Funi app. Keeps giving an error message on PS4, but I got it working on my laptop.


Really like how the last 3-4 eps we've started switching away from the fun hearted slice of life episodic nature of the first few eps and transitioning to some really well written stories here. I'm really curious to learn more about Amane and his "twin" and their origin stories. Sakura is really cute too and I'm interested in learning more about her. What caused her to be indebted to the twin.

Was that a terminator reference behind that one door with the lava and the "I'll be back"? Lol.

Loved the Nene and Hanako moment at the end of the episode. I ship them so freaking much. They're adorable. Couldn't get enough of this with the once a week eps, so I picked up the manga last week and am enjoying it so far! Definitely wish more people were not sleeping on this.

Geeze, what's Nene see in Natsuhiko? Hanako is SO MUCH CUTER than him....actually I think Natsuhiko's the least attractive boy on the show but everyone's like "He's so hot" pffffff how? I find him kind of annoying tbh.

Wonder what that key is for...o.o

Post credit scene was creepy af.

Hanako-san, Hanako-san... are you there? I just wanna say: STOP MAKING ME CRY, DAMMIT.
Is this gonna be a weekly thing now, then? Silliness and hilarity, and then That One Scene™ somewhere along the way that just - right in the feels.

On another note...

Hanako-kun's got quite the booty??

Same here. By Hanako apologizing for the donuts, shows that have no interest in animating the Mermaid arc. But they still missing some dialogue that was important in that scene from the mermaid Arc


anyway back to the ep, I really love it. I really love how Tsukasa can be so childish to manipulated in an instance. The ending is adorable ( Hanako X Nene ). :3 Next ep

WHAT DID HE SAY?! I'm not gonna lie; I'm finding Tsukasa more and more terrifying with each episode. He's so fucking twisted and appears to have no emotion at all. He seems like the dictionary definition of a psycho!

I'm also ridiculously curious about what the key is for...

I really don't want to like Natsuhiko since he's with those 2 bastards but I couldn't help but warm up to him this episode. He's such a lovable idiot haha

Nene is close to getting her dreams of getting that relationship...but the guy (Hyuuga) kinda emits the vibe of a typical popular ikemen. Nevertheless, it's the first time she's known of the evil trio (Hyuuga and Sakura, much less of Hanako's twin brother Tsukasa).

And just like Nene, Sakura gave part of her life away with an Apparation. But the tea party is pretty much a trap that Tsukasa made for Nene.

I mean, the comedy is on Nene and Natsuhiko, but IMO it feels like a drag to go through.

And Hanako comes to the rescue again...except that Nene and Natsuhiko has to navigate their way out somehow through doors. This is where the comedy got good with the different door interpretations, especially the Arnold Schwarznegger skull lava, Mokke and monster-filled rooms. Welp, so much for showing off your manlihood-ness.

Nene took the correct course out, but saw the Hanako while he's still alive rather than the Apparation she knows now. What's the secret behind his backstory and the key?

Getting interesting with the build-up as always. And Tsukasa, as evil as he is and must be stopped, kinda wanna see how far he'd go with Sakura and Natsuhiko.

Tsukasa kidnapped Yashiro and tried to get rid of her... Sakura has no choice but to obey Tsukasa, and yet she said to Yashiro that they are in the same position, but I don't think so. Hanako doesn't ask Yashiro to do bad things. So, for now, I feel for Sakura. She seems collected, but she really doesn't seem to be the one in control. I wonder if she left Natsuhiko behind so he would look after Yashiro? Maybe she hoped that Hanako would notice what happened and manage to save her. I do wonder what happened with Natsuhiko after he was dragged like that by the way. lol Yashiro is really great though. xD I love how she tried to remain on guard, but failed to do so, and how she regretted, if only for a moment, not letting Natsuhiko kiss her. I felt that. lol A pity there was no Kou in this episode, but I guess it's fine. Hanako said that he is sorry for letting those donuts go to waste too. That was cute, but more importantly, Yashiro met Hanako as Amane in the past. I wonder what role that key is going to play. And Tsukasa is already plotting something bad again.

Boy this anime is shaping up to be even more amazing than I thought. It's gonna be really interesting seeing Amane and Yashiro's interactions from the past.

Natsuhiko is way too funny lmao, I love how indifferent he was despite being in mortal danger ever since he was tied up in that chair and then opening various dangerous doors. His interactions with Yashiro were really entertaining. Also that Terminator reference!!

Sakura's "contract/bond" with Tsukasa has me quite intrigued, being honest. The way she talked with Nene gave me an impression that Tsukasa might actually be the one who control everything and not the other way round. I might be wrong but since he makes contracts with the death, I wonder if Sakura is actually some kind of spirit who made a contract with him and for that reason, she can't really oppose to his requests...

Anyways, leaving that aside, this was another nice episode. Seeing more of Sakura and Natsuhiko as well as their interactions with gothic lolita Nene was quite nice and of course, the last scene with Hanako apologizing for ruining the donuts was super sweet too.

Looking forward to next episode! Really wondering what role Amane's key will play.

Alot of manga reader got a bit upset as how some of the arcs is being skipped

As a fellow anime watcher, I will say give them a chances to Improved and maybe they will fix the rating

and let's not forget with the current outbreak, they tried their best to sustained the anime and they all did with whats the current budget being held.

I hope we will get the same thing as how Noragami season 2 got improved

Edit: So then, Hell of Mirrors is moved forwards quite a bit, then what. Ep 11 is gonna be the Clock Keepers? Maybe 12 too? And then end on Yashiro's big bombshell?

Maybe when she was a spirit wished to be alive again and Tsukasa fulfilled her wish but with the twist

something like
Tsukasa - Sakura-chan, you are alive again! :D but now your life belongs to me. ;) :P

I know, right? She seems to be in a very dumb teenage phase I've seen a few girls going through where they fall left and right for every guy. And two, years later they wonder, why they had been so dumb. I hope it doesn't take her so long to recognize that or never realizes that lol

The doors and rooms were fun tho, but when she has seen past-Hanako and the hug, aww! ❤

Are they going to end with the Star Festival Arc? It seems they will adapting the Hell of Mirrors next, which will probably take 2 episodes. They skipped an important bit from the manga, so I don’t know how that would play out. This whole adaptation order is a bit wonky. Good episode, though.

Actually the hell of mirrors arc is going to be one episode since there is no part one on the title. How are they going to fit 6 chapters in one episode ? I just hope they end the season with manga source material and not an anime original ending ._..

Makes sense, but that’s a lot of content for one episode. Knowing them, they’ll probably adapt the Star Festival in one episode, if they adapt it at all. The Hell of Mirrors arc is kind long, so I hope they take 2 episodes on it. We’re only on episode 9, so 3 episodes should be enough for all of that. And yeah, I don’t want an anime original ending.

WAIT! Did we just stumble on something IMPORTANT?!
Did The fact that Nene appear in front of Amane (in the past) then end up taking the keys he dropped have something to do with him becoming "Hanako-kun"?? Oh gawd that would be ULTIMATELY CUTE if true.

And a slight rip-off of Kamisama Kiss but personally I don't really mind if so...

This episode was very boring and everything would have been avoided if Hanako-kun had prevented Nene from being captured in the first place.

But its ok nvm.

My heart hurting in a different way compared to the last ep. Hanako must have been so worried. My whole ass heart.
I wonder if Nene is the reason why he changed his future. Literally has the key to his heart. Also I'm not sure but wans't the date, a day or two before he dies? (Or a day or two before the moon landing, which is when he's confirmed to still be alive?) Maybe he kills his brother after getting locked out the house? Lol
I'm still upset that Hanako didn't eat the donuts... unless he's a ghost that can't eat things and they've kindly avoided the topic.
