| Wow In a way like "Vegetarian" Demon, didn't eat Human? Nice Big Reveal about the World Lore... Holy damn it's been 1000 years since the "Promise" between Human and Demon... So It's still Earth and it split into half. So Human in the beginning of the "Promised" sacrifice other Humans to be breed in the Farm, right? Ohh that flower, in the first episode Season 1... Oh boy Yeah i can understand Emma struggle, we in modern society doesn't really hunt and kill the animal by ourselves.. |

I really hope the direction and screenwriting improves later on, because this episode felt much longer than it actually was given how uninterested I was most of the time. Nani??? How the Episode that reveal the World Lore become uninterested... |

How the Episode that reveal the World Lore become uninterested... I said for most of the time. The world lore reveal was interesting, but still just one scene, and even that could have been better directed imo. |
 |
| I'm confused, can't relate at all... Alright |
|
| glad to see the demons don't eat humans. i'm still a little wary but i hope there isn't a plot twist where they turn out to be bad. this is set in 2046?? i honestly thought it would be way further into the future. i've always been interested in the world tpn is set so it was interesting to see this explored. is it just me or emma looks a little weird at the end? |
| In my opinion, this episode was far better than the first, it goes more in-depth about how the characters were feeling after they escaped which the first episode didn't do. This is because the characters in animes for me are very important, for me, the show could be about fugging eating toast before you go to school and that's it, as long as the characters are enjoyable, I'll like it. This episode brought my rating from a 7 to a 9, an amazing episode. |
| I like these two vegan demons |

| First half of this episode felt so peaceful and comfortable. |
| I guess next stop is save the other children then cross to the human world, even if its probably not going to be that fucking easy =P I was right about Mujika. She is my little demon lesbian after all! And my girls dont eat other girls, she rather give the other girl a kiss,,YEEEEEEEES Most importantly my little angel/demon have psychical contact for the first time. Awwwwwww they are so cute. I think demon girl should romance with human girl,,,,YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! In my book,They would be the most awesome lesbian couple ever  |

| One thing that I learnt a lot in this episode is that Gilda can be surprisingly scary when she needs to be. It's always the quiet ones, huh? XD Anyway, we get a good introduction to Sonju and Mujika, who have helped Emma and Ray's group out a lot. Due to their religious beliefs, they don't eat humans, which automatically makes them heretics within the demon society. Sonju also went on to explain about how the humans and demons live on their own sides of the planet and how it's been like that for 1,000 years. They've done enough to convince me that they're good guys and the pair did a stellar job in teaching the kids how to prep up fruit and vegetables, as well as practice on using a bow and arrow. However, Emma wanted to go with Sonju during his scouting job, where she asked him her true intention, which is to hunt other living creatures, as she knows they need all the food they can get, meat and fish included, in order to improve their survival odds. You can see that shooting the bird down from the tree and them ramming the same plant used on the humans gave Emma some painful memories of the very first episode back in season 1, and you can see that clearly on her face at the end of this episode, too. Poor girl... |
I have my suspicions too, the poster makes Mujika look kinda antagonic IMO. |
Hahli143 said: I was thinking that if the other kids still have the locator in their ears, wouldn’t the demons be able to easily find them? Seems like a major loophole if it isn’t explained. Or did I miss something? Ray created a tool to disable these things. He used it on them during the escape. |
| Emma and Ray know the facts about the world, so, there are 2 worlds, a demon world and a human world, damn Sonju is a very good person |
 |
| To survive forward they must kill for food. I really like how the OP shows the dinning sequence with the eater becoming eaten. This show gives that kinda vibe. |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
kaip4 said: As a manga reader the episode was good. The only thing is I feel like the pacing is going a bit fast but its not a big issue. At this rate, we will definitely be hitting some very interesting parts of the series this season. How far in the story are we compared to the manga ? |
 |
| After an unimpressive first episode, we got some big revelations and developments handed to us. It seems that Sonju and Mujika do not eat humans because of their "religion" and are willing to let the children be safe from the demonic world they are in. Speaking of demonic world, wow it is Earth and it is divided between Humans and Demon World. Meaning that they are the descendants of humans who were given by the Demons as livestock. That was a big revelation, I am not shocked but I am surprised on what the world of Yakusoku is. Also big development for Emma as she tries and strives to become a 'hunter', and for the first time she killed a human being to 'survive'. That right there is brewing character development, and I am glad that she didn't hold back furiously from the life-changing challenge. The second season's arc is now rolling! Let's see how they would 'try' to escape to the 'Human' world and save Phil, Norman and the others from the farms run by Demons. |

| So...up to human world. |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| So they was saved by the Indu's from that world, lol. "BE VEGAN, THE ANIME" btw, i'm 100% anime-only. My expectations of plot-twists: - The couple of demons are lying about their diet, surely, maybe about the world. - If the "half-human" side is real, the fugitives from the demon side are not welcome (it is not a twist, it is just logic). - Finally, maybe the humans from the other side are eating demons now. |

| Such a curious episode. Actually the conversation they had about religion and the current situation of the world, although vague, ended up being very interesting to me. This is by far the most interesting point in the story, but I really would like the approach to be kind of different, although surely the problem comes because those who tell it do it so half-heartedly that it doesn't allow you to find out what you want to know and it feels like they were hiding the information on purpose which bothers me a lot. On the other hand, what happened with Emma was something hard and can add layers to her character, but I totally disagree with the drastic changes in an exploration that happened in a couple of hours, changes of this type usually take a little longer since they are gradual. I really want to be interested in the characters but it's because of these things that I can't do it. |
 |
| I remember watching the first episode and thinking what a cute anime with cute kids. What a long way this has come. Cute kids in a dark anime. Still interested and watching! |
 |
| i liked how they had to learn all of the basics to survive. must've been hard for emma to kill that bird in the same way her siblings were killed. i miss phil :( |

Parthj said: After trying hard to remember, I still don't remember how Emma and Ray come out with the number 30 years. The dates on the books I beleive. |
| Worldbuilding slowly kicks in more and more. Intersting so far. I like. Gives us a new goal, to look forward to. Emma's Moment with the bird is kind of thought provoking. Demons are not that different from us, killing and eating animals, every day. Hope that Idea get's disvored more, instead of demons just staying these "Evil" kinda one dimensional beeings. Sonjus and Mujika characters give me hope, for that. |
 |
| I swear the writing in this show is so strong. I'm loving how it is handling its character. We can see how killing that bird mess up Emma. She's my favorite so far. |
| I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon. |
| The art in this episode was so amazing. Some lore on the world of the show. Great development, looking forward to more! |

| Time to read the manga. Ugh. This season is good so far. I hope them kind demons are good. Huhu. I liked them already and I don’t want to get hurt. |

| those demons are pretty fascinating, I love Sonju's design a lot especially the bandaged arms |
| Always found the topic of religion among demons interesting, a pity that it isn't a topic used during the manga. |
