Man this episode is also no good. Especially yura, her voice is kinda little bit off and weird.

I just hope the next episode we can finally see rikuo in some good action with his night form !!!

God Yura is a rude bitch. Inviting herself to the house of someone she doesn't know, walking around and doing what she wants, etc. It's unfortunate she wants to exterminate yokai, too, but I'm okay with that cus it's a good plot device. I just think she's way too fucking rude.

Annnnnnd I tried to resist, but the ED is growing on me a lot. ;_;


basically this. i was thinking the exact same thing throughout the entire episode. :T i would've probably tolerated it if she were close friends with rikuo, but it was her first time there, lmao...

that aside, i think i'm the only one who feels bad for the yokai. ;A; TOUGH LIFE, MAN.

A lot of changes from the original source... some are good (with these changes, we will sooner reach the good stuff) and some bad (Tsurara meant it when she said that she won't leave Rikuo alone, Rikuo's fear of Yura in the house was a bit weird (in manga he already knew that she was an exorcist)... not too important but I am kind of person who finds little details like these important). Still, the least good episode of the three IMO. Next one should be good tough.

New girl, Yura, is really cute. Things are starting to get interesting..

I think Kubinashi gets more adorable with each episode!!

Best part of the episode was the one line at the end of the preview, in Fukuyama Jun's deeper voice. Me needs more Night Rikuo just for his voice <3

Whoever said it's moving slowly, it's a smegging SJ series, how many of them start with a fast pace?

And here comes Madarao. It was probably the best out of the first three episodes, that's definitely a shonen that I'll follow for a bit, even if there's always this Kekkaishi aftertaste.

Really how can you blame a teenager who want to be normal when his house is like that? How many of you who wouldn't want your friends to come over to your house because of your family? That's peer pressure for ya.

I wish Yura would look more lively, she looks that she's bored to hell!

Koyasu-sama! Too bad he's playing a minor character.

God, my thoughts exactly. He's such a derp.

This episode was just plain silly. And the action's animation made me lol.

Huh, I've had no problem with Rikuo or Yura. I think they're both rather interesting characters, and I see some really interesting possibilities, considering Yura's a youkai-hunter.
I like Rikuo's group of friends--they're an interesting bunch.

So in defense of Rikuo and Yura:
Of course Rikuo's not going to be excited about all his friends coming over when it's full of youkai--he's trying to be a normal human after all. What teen growing up doesn't want to fit in at school? It's completely normal. And he's the master of the youkai! He's supposed to tell the youkai what to do. What kind of master doesn't tell his servants to do anything? They can afford to hide themselves for ten minutes.
As for Yura searching the house--well, she was kind of dragged along herself--it wasn't her idea to go to Rikuo's house. And she sensed youkai everywhere, which she believes are bad (and they often are). You have to look at this from her perspective--if there are youkai sneaking about and she senses them, then of course she's going to look around for them! She doesn't want the youkai to kill her new friends. Sure it was a bit rude, but she can afford to be a little improper for the sake of saving her friends' lives.

The main character is actually very cool, I would say that he's the second best character in the anime after he's grandfather, what happen is that this is just the beginning, just wait until the good stuff happen.

That was awesome actually. How come they came with such an idea? I immediately said "WTF! Durarara! ending".! I didn't even realize it was the sub group that made it. I thought it was a joke from the produces of the series.

Anyway not much happened in most of the time but i don't know it wasn't that bad. Shounen staff are slow at the first episodes anyway and the ending was very exciting.

as opposed to the typical protagonist who "accepts" their fate and gets all powered up to save the world from some evil?

the fact that he doesn't even remember his youkai self helps with his desire to be human. also he IS a kid you know. but of course he will come to embrace his youkai side and fight the good fight like the hero he is.


Quite true, he doesn't just accept his destiny, this is something about fighting with our own destiny( which shouldn't we fight againts)

*fake gasps*
No, a 14 year old boy who's 3/4 demon and only 1/4 human, and doesn't even have any knowledge/memories of his demon form (at this point in the show at least) doesn't want to be a demon king and live a normal life as a human? So I suppose it would be more "realistic' if this 14 year old boy (who probably at that age hasn't even gone through puberty yet I'm not sure) wanted to be a demon king? Geez everyone talking about how selfish the boy is are idiots. It's obvious that later on he will learn more about his demon powers and something will happen where he will finally take on the responsibility of being this demon king/leader. It's only the third fucking episode you pricks smh.

Just after the good 2nd episode they had to bring in that annoying Yura girl or what is her name? I can't freaking stand her, just how rude and antisocial can you be, to just wander around in someone's house, opening rooms and touching -valuable- stuff? She isn't even friends with him, hell, they've barely talked and then she's acting like some rude btch in his house. I wish she would go away but guess that ain't going to happen >.<

But to be fair, he should just stop them if he doesn't want them to wander around, grow some balls and speak up >.< If my friends were to wander around my house I would get really mad at them, especially if they wouldn't even listen to me after saying "no" for the first time.

So much hate for Rikuo. I half get it and half not. He is pretty much a wimp who can't say what's on his mind. Even though his friends were abnormally pushy, he could've said that 'it's really not possible today' (although then the events of this episode wouldn't be able to happen, or they could've rescheduled it). But you can't blame him for wanting to be normal (he IS mostly a normal kid, after all) and asking the youkai to cooperate. Besides, he is their future master too, so of course they would do as he asked.

And I know that it's just an anime, but am I the only one who finds it unacceptable for Yura to act the way she did? She barely knows Rikuo, and then she acts like she owns the place. I would've kicked her out.

This episode gave me a laugh. First angry Lord Zen. Then telling grandpa his candy is terrible . And then at the very end telling those yokai thugs, "You smell bad."

Glad that rat wasn't Yura clan. Wonder how things will work out with this Keikain girl being stound now.
