The return of the detective and his GA cosplay secretary =\. At least they didn't take up too much screen time. <3 the smiling Yin though


I wonder if they'll really go through with killing Yin? Huang was pretty cold hearted calling for Yin's assassination but he also looked genuinely terrified of going against the organization they work for.

Oh and the fat lady's remuneration is disgusting o.O

sudo hasn't put out their HQ release yet. However subtitles by anon are currently out as .ass files for both episodes 13 and 14. The files work just fine with the S^M raws.

Can't tell you about translation since I don't speak a lick of Japanese but overall the quality was fine. Subtitles a bit on the small side but still readable. No subs for the OP/ED and previews though.

saw it on Veoh, someone used the Anon subs. Poster mentioned lesser quality but as long as I could understand then it was fine. I loved the Death Note reference! Well Yin's character is bein fleshed out a little more. It shows a little in this episode that contractors aren't always "soulless" individuals although Hei might be a special case. Still don't know his real renumeration.

I didn't know Yin was actually blind. ._.

There was some nice action in this episode, I liked it. Though I noticed that the piano didn't have any pedals even though they talked about it before.

That onsen bit was funny heh, but I hate Huang for being indeed so cold-hearted about killing Yin.

Looking forward to more!

Gai and his assistant is doing a good job being the comic relief in this anime, love how Gai talked english lol! About Huang being cold-hearted, its expected. If i remember correctly, he said some harsh words about contractors to Hei too on previous episodes and in this one. Huang isn't treating them as humans. =S

Great episode. I liked Yin, before and I like her even more now. I liked how Hei pressed Huang's buttons. Very sneaky.

Great to see the return of Gai and his assistant, Kiko. That duo makes me laugh. Kiko's Death Note reference was amusing.

Also, Kiko's friend has some large breasts... with all the talk about anime and cosplay I had thoughts of Ohno from Genshiken.

ah, this was strangely one of my favourite episodes.. except I also liked the set of two before it.. I think DtB has been getting even more awesome as of late, if that is even possible..

Yin is absolutely the most awesome character.. but so is Hei.. so.. blarg, heh. This show is great.. I feel just an overwhelming love for it at the moment, and now I must re-give it a 10/10 instead of a 9/10 (did that with the gai episodes.. 9/10 is still a really good score though)..

Its sounds extremely famaliar to me. Im downloading the soundtrack right now to see if its on there. There is a track on there called "Yin no song". It could be it I guess. It could have been made for the show.

THE DETECTIVE IS BACK!!!

The need to have a slightly fluffier episode once in a while I guess... I kinda wish that the arcs connected somehow... but it was still a great episode ^^

I thought that Yin was a contractor till now... not a doll >.>

Lol, Death Note reference. xD
Huang is an ass, but it's to be expected. He's been yelling at Hei and treating him like dirt this whole time. As for the whole killing Yin thing, it looks like he's genuinely terrified...I doubt Hei will do it though. He's definately shown emotion before, plus he seemed pissed and Huang when he suggested it.
Whoo, more Yin backstory coming up!

Love this episode. Got to see the detective's assistant again and the death note reference was hilarious. Not something I would have expected from this show.

Huang came off to me as a cool guy that ran the stuff behind the scenes, but now he just seems like a tool. Maybe that'll change later on in the series.

Chewing cigarettes - not so much x__x

Haha, when Kiko said 'there has to be at least one', she meant fanservice, right? RIGHT? XD Lol. She's funny. And I usually tend to hate those cute, pink-haired girls o.O

Huang is getting on my nerves. Dude, get off your high horse, already! Hei>you. Mao>you. Wei>you (oh, how much). Havoc>you.
Hell, even the poem dude>you.

Nice Yin development.

LOL when Kiko is saying they have to go to the hot springs at least once, since "everyone is expecting it!" XP

I'm intrigued to learn more about Yin, since she hasn't really done much yet in the series. And even nice to learn more about the ugly guy that Hei works for (I forget his name - he never does anything).

I find it hard to believe Yin is going to die. Since we already have seen examples of Hei showing emotion, I find it implausible that he would kill her after defying orders, and saving her from collapsing rubble. Killing Huang however, could be interesting, especially since we know so little about the Syndicate.
