| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Things are starting to get pretty interesting now. I wonder if Tenma and Anna/Nina will get to the house in time. |
| Wow, that was intense. I think this show just might end up as one of my favorites. |
 |
| Yes this show is great, I think the will get to the house to find everyone dead. |
| great anime |
 |
| Fantastic! That whole episode had me gripped from start to finish and the end was so intense. I haven't felt this excited by an anime in a long time, I can't wait to watch the next one :D |
 |
| I enjoyed this episode a lot. Things are really starting to heat up. I am definitley going to continue watching this series. |
 |
| this is getting really intense. I wonder if her fake parrents and that journalist are already dead since we saw Johan at the castle. |
| No sig :( |
| I knew that it had to be a trap as soon as the reporter said the phone lines were cut. This is getting pretty intense. I wonder if the parents will be dead or not. Or maybe just kidnapped... |
| \ |
| Yeahhhh go Mamiko Noto go! She's such a strong character; it's too bad she lost her parents again... if I was her brother though, i'd want to take her away too... so I don't blame him. |

| Tenma getting his ass saved by Anna/Nina was lame!!! Also I don't see why the parents should be harmed..They didn't do anything bad.But who DO have to deal with a psycho.. |
 |
| ah nina was awesome still a little cracked up too though |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| I bet they're dead. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| I BET Tenma is going to get framed for both the parents and journalist's (he took his car after all) and for the creepy guy's deaths (because I assume he did not live long after Johan got to him; and he was tied with Tenma's tie, which means trouble for him)... |

| Big mistake. Tenma should've made sure the parents went along with him since it's easier to kill them in their own home. |
| Awesome episode, fast pace... I really hope her parents are alright but... I don't know. |
| Whew, I forgot how damn intense this series can be. |

Rockkun said: I was a little disappointed by this episode. For someone who's presented as an intelligent person, it was pretty idiotic of Nina to meet an anonymous stranger without accompaniment, or telling anyone where she was going. She's a law student; Stalkers shouldn't be a new concept to her. On top of that, deciding to bring Nina back to her house, right after the hired watch indicated that Johann might still be there seemed a little dim. lol agree so much with the idea that she actually met what was obviously a stalker, although she did tell people where she was going. Although I kind of want them to go back to see how bad it is (the scene of the crime that is). Also why did the parents all of a sudden trust what the guy was saying... and why did the newspaper guy lend, what should appear to be a "crazy person", his car. |

I'm also not keen about the hired thug who acted like a zombie, for no reason other than to scare the audience. |
| And here we go time event can Tenma save Nina / Anna's parents. About Episode: Haha that Maurer man seems pretty nice dude. His reactions to this case was funny and when Tenma prayed that he has to see those files I mean newspaper articles. Guy just put a lot of books in the table and said do what ever you want haha. :DD So collapsed Nina was fine again and talked that teacher to Johan and when she sensed that Johan is pure evil and bad guy and he is basically Nina's brother. Again another email. Let's meet in castle and knight will arrive there yeah right? It's really stupid to Nina's believing those emails and just why the heck she went to castle of course because she wanted to get her memories back who wouldn't. Why those parent's didn't come to castle with Tenma and that Maurer guy I mean of course it's dangerous but now it's pretty sure they are not there anymore. Only if Johan was so kind this time and didn't do anything. But I don't expect that because nature of this show. Oh Johan thought lesson what could happen if you fail in mission. I was sure Johan is going to be in a castle but again he hired some old man to keep watch on Nina. Seems like Johan has either good manipulate powers to control humans or there is supernatural events used here. Or another one he could hypnotize those thugs. That was just pathetic Nina's beating that guy and Tenma is just looking there... Good for Nina though she can use some karate to his brother later haha. Hope they can arrive in time. 5/5 Fast paced episode yay! |
 |
| So intense, love this show. |
 |
| Uhh.. maybe the phone isn't working because it is not plugged in? lol Anyways good episode, Nina/Anna seems to have some recollection of what went on in her past. I feel bad for the newspaper reporter.. I'm pretty sure he's dead now... I wonder if that type of thing is going to keep happening, i.e. Someone will give a sad backstory and then later die. It already happened twice so far. Rockkun said: I was a little disappointed by this episode.

On top of that, deciding to bring Nina back to her house, right after the hired watch indicated that Johann might still be there seemed a little dim. I think She thought she was strong enough to handle anything on her own, and maybe that city didn't have many killings, robberies etc. I remember when I visited my cousins in the US they never locked their doors and their kids could go out till dark. Even so, I agree with you, she was a bit naive. |
| Cliffhangeeer, uaaa! This series is intense, dat thrill! I am expecting the worse. Poor Nina! |
| People are picky with this anime. 5/5 intense episode, too bad theres 68 more episodes to get through. That's such a daunting task |
 |
| This is really getting intense. Also, can we assume now that Tenma has just given up medicine for the time being to pursue this mystery? It seems he doesn't even eat since that newspaper worker gave him the meal. Johan came out quick (or at least assumed to be Johan) once Tenma and Nina left the castle. Maybe that means his work is done at the house already? Exciting stuff |
| -Nothing can stay unchanged. Even so, can you still keep on loving this place? -Be still my soul; when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. |
| another excellent episode :) and wow just like the reporter, it seems Tenma hasn't showered in awhile now XD btw since he's the cheif surgeon, is this really okay to let him wonder on his own? what about the detectives? surely Lunge would have followed him? and wow when the reporter said he was at the crime scene on one of the victims, he said he would kill this person without hesitation. man that garderner guy is crazy! good thing Anna has got awesome judo skills :) and wtf as soon as they left it seems Johan is back to finish the garderner guy. please reporter-san and foster parents!! you promise to quit smoking and come back to your wife reporter-san!!! this is getting intense by the episode!! i wish we had more anime's like this!!! next episode!!! |
| Damn that was freaking good! I am now officially hooked. |
 |
| as the conspiracy slowly unfolds...just to realise that there's darkness within the darkness. |
| "If you reject me, I'll blast a hole in you!" Kanzaki H. Aria Just kidding.  |
| OMG. My heart. That was so intense. |
| I liked the reporter. He seemed pretty reasonable, and even believed Tenma once they found the parents. There were death flags all over the place, though. They'll likely be dead by the time Tenma and Anna get back. Hopefully Tenma won't get framed for it: He's been going this alone too much. Seeing how Johan will react to not finding Anna could be interesting. Rockkun said: I was a little disappointed by this episode.

On top of that, deciding to bring Nina back to her house, right after the hired watch indicated that Johann might still be there seemed a little dim. You have to keep in mind the time period. This is 1995, when parents still let their kids walk the streets and people were more trusting in general. The awareness of stalkers and danger-consciousness in general has increased since then. Plus, Anna is quite curious about her past. I find it to be pretty believable, even if it wasn't smart. |
Algirdyz said: this is getting really intense. I wonder if her fake parrents and that journalist are already dead since we saw Johan at the castle. I was gonna say exactly this. Great episode. |
 |
| oh my this is getting interesting. too bad the reporter guy has a huge red flag painted on him, I liked him. |
 |
| Sheesh why was that gardener so fucking nuts?! Seeing that the phone wires were cut, I have a bad feeling that the reporter and Nina's foster parents are gonna die. Seeing Johan slowly approach that tied up gardener was scary. Pretty good episode. Definitely felt flawed at some points but I still enjoyed it. 8/10 |
| Maaan, I hope her foster family and the journalist didn't die, although I am pretty sure they are dead already. Hard times are approaching to the poor Anna :( |

| Good episode! |

| Man, this show just keeps getting better and better and more intense with each episode. I love it! 5/5 |
 |
| Rip Nina's "parents" and that other dude. |
 |
| I like Tenma, he's so dedicate. I'd like to have him as a father. |
| this is getting intense af |

How else did Tenma find her? I really hope the parents didn't die. Mostly because I liked that news reporter guy cause he eventually understood the truth. |
| Meh, the rescuer get rescued, that felt dumb |
| Too bad that her foster parents are probably already dead because Johan is already at the castle to "finish" that guy. |
 |
| That was really smart of Johan to distract Tenma. |
