| I want more of the other vampires!!! Ichijou <3 (driving Kaname??) The ep was ok, a little better than the previous one but still awfully slow. The art unfortunately seems to get worse =/ |
 |
| Ok episode, i dunno what is it that keeps me watching but in this one it was the flashbacks. I like flashbacks and i dislike the animation :D |
 |
| I really can't see Yuuki ending up with either of them. She would either turn into a half vampire and risk turning into a level E at some point in her life which I doubt Kaname would ever want to happen. Or she would be a blood drink for Zero (unless they find a way to cure him which is doubtful). Realistically though, she has a better chance of ending up with Zero in the end...but I cant really see that happening since anime shows always toss in something random later on. The OP and ED are drop hints but can be considered misleading as well. The OP shows her drinking water that turned to blood which could indicate that she, at some point, will be turned into a vampire. It could also indicate that shes still human but trying to replenish her missing blood that zero took from her. The ED shows her as a lifeless doll (similar to the OP's ballerina with strings) and then the lights go out and her eyes light up like a vampires. This in its self could indicate that shes a vampire or will be turned into one. So its anyones guess how things will play out romantically for yuuki. |

That was what I was talking about since episode 1. The OP and ED are too obvious..... |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| i cant see how this episode was boring, it was one of the better ones. |
 |
| well.. since i'm a kaname yuuki fan, i guess you can guess this is one of my favorite episode so far, b'cause its shows a lot of scene with kaname and yuuki together.. not to mention, happy and sweet moments between the two... and i find young kaname soo cute.. as that red glowing eyes most people hate.. well i sorta like it.. for me, it shows how different they are from human,, and if its kaname's eyes that turns red, i take it as a defination as how powerfull and influential he is. i guess the reason why i just love kaname because he is a strong and pwerful character. he knows what he wants, and he make sure that he gets what he set his heart on.. and protect those who are important to him, unlike zero who sulk and retract when things happens that is out of his control. well i guess this is my personal opinion |

| This has seriously been the best episode of the series for me. It provided much needed character development and held my interest to the end (though the beginning was kind of odd ...). It doesn't hurt that there was so much love for Kaname in this episode (especially as his adorable younger self); he's quickly become my favorite, although I don't see him and Yuuki ending up together. Yuuki's hero worship of Kaname makes more sense now as well. Also, this show is ridiculously sexually charged, and it makes me giggle. |

| Kaname looked better last time. Yuuki too. Zero not much change though. |
 |
| I thought it was a good enough episode, I thought it was interesting to see what's happened. I hate Kaname so much though. mystik said: I'd so love to see Zero take down some vampires already, especially kaname. Agreed. |
 |
| Eh flashbacks...It wasn't that entertaining. Gah *falls asllep*.. |
     |
| Loved this episode =) The story was awsome |
 |
| hmm I think this episode is needed too But I don't agree with Yuuki and Kaname Iunno when you see in the past how he comes over he seems more like a father than the chairman, which made me laugh But I also agree with Senna, and I think Yuuki has more hero worship for Kaname, or maybe like the 'knight in shining armor' image most girls have after they read fairytales or books. But i think she should realize that she loves Zero!! Well...it seems like it to me:P go Zero and Yuuki!! |
Darkreaper70 said: Eh flashbacks...It wasn't that entertaining. Gah *falls asllep*.. Agreed. I can't stand flashbacks, but that's just me. I wish they'd got on with the story. |
 |
| Ehhh, backstory is good for character development, but personally, that's not my big reason for watching. Kinda dull episode. Also, has the animation gotten progressively worse, or is it just me? The characters don't look as pretty as they did for the first 3 or 4 eps. |
     |
| Yuuki was so gorgeous... and sweet. I just love that scene when she's attempting to get dressed. And we got to see why Kaname and Zero are so conflicted animated... well I liked it more in manga, animation is lately getting sucky. |

| the episode was okay...it was nice to see some character history...yeh it was a bit too much, i rather have them half episode FB, half episode story-continuation i'm giving this 3/5 |
 MAL list updates |
| yeah...i agree with you guys the animation is getting very odd, not to mention the manga drawings are beautiful and the anime seems kinda uncool! well anyways i figured out we would need this episode since there was no major character development.Either ways i consider the manga way better than this...it lacks something and i often get pissed by either kaname's comments or Yuuki's suppositions of kaname did this and that! Zerooo i love you even if you kill kaname...for me it's fine!! and is it my impression or is the anime just taking parts from every chapter and mixing them together? i don-t remember very well since i-m in the 39 chapter already and i forget those things really! |

I loved this episode. I've become a Kaname x Yuuki fan. But I'll take Zero for myself. :P Seeing the sweet scenes between them when they were young was great. And seeing the conflict between Zero and Kaname when they were young too was just awesome. I plan on picking this manga up soon. Oh, and I LOVE the red eyes glowing in the dark. Creepy! ^.^ |
 |
| I can't help being a Zero x Yuuki fan, even though it's obvious that she'll end up with Kaname. I love you Zero!!! |
| I'm confused. I like the show and am weak on the emo-drama crap, but well, just witnessing gloss'ed characters sigh over their sad existence isn't really satisfying. The show lacks a lot of information for me to be drawn into the story or sympathize with the characters. Kaname is very dull - there's just hints of hints of possible dark objectives- Zero is hot and is the most fleshed out of all the chars yet, but he's still way too passive..And well, Yuuki is your usual shoujo main char. I'm eager to see the plot that'll make all of them move and try to acomplish things and possibly solve all the mystery they packed up. I want to believe there's something else than "let's live together in harmony" about this school. |

| finally the flashback ep |
 92% of teens have moved on to rap. If you are part of the 8% who still listens to real music, copy and paste this into your signature. |
| Finally some background info. Ok episode I guess. |
 |
| Very good flashback episode, even more interesting than normal episode ;P |
kYem said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Looks like alot of flashbacks, finally you can understand why Yuki is afraid now ;) Too bad i only saw raw (crappy raw ;(( ) but anyway this one was great in character development kyaa! baka no vampire-tachi!! why cant they just get rid of their evilness like in Blood+... waaa... |
 |
| I really seemed to feel with my heart some in this ep |
| Wow, I really like the gunshot in the opening. \ & What the hell happened to that Kaname? The Kaname that was laughing and all, I really liked him then! Anyway, for an episode that was almost all flashbacks to the past and even some recap to previous episodes, this was pretty good! It finally makes sense now how Yuuki got to the current point of liking Kaname yet not completely returning his feelings. I'm sort of glad she saw Kaname and Ruka together, that allows her to be stuck choosing between him and Zero now. This still doesn’t answer the question of why Yuuki is so special though - if anything it made me more curious! |
 |
| flashbacks... hmmm... |
| Very informative episode. Yuuki is one confused chick, too bad for Zero, but he can feel how Kaname feels now. Lol'd at changing scene, chibi Yuuki is cute. |
 |
| Sweet! I'm still holding out for some Zero/Kaname. |
 |
| What an emotive episode.... I like it... |
Kittenia said: Lol, I wonder too XD Wth with the RukaxKaname scene D:& What the hell happened to that Kaname? The Kaname that was laughing and all, I really liked him then! This was a kinda boring episode D: But I liked the YuukixKaname scenes xD Cute. I want to know more. |
     |
| i loved the part where she tried 2 dress herself!!! i was laughing soooo hard!!! X3 |
 |
| I decided to watch this episode in english Dub. i got so excited when i found out Zero is the same voice actor as Edward Elric :3 i wont lie i had a fan girl moment... still not liking this anime though (never read the manga) the style of animation is just too weird for me. |
| Mini Yuuki trying to dress up was cute. :3 |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Am I the only one who thought young Yuuki looked horrible? Maybe I am biased because I do not like her, but stil, her eyes were freakishly huge. As for anime, its okay. Not great, not bad, just okay. |
| What a good episode. When Yuki was small she was so cute ^^ |
| kaname is starting to lure me to his team by being so sexy and just soo mysterious!! but i still love zero |
| Nice episode I do wonder if Yuki will ever confess her feelings! |
 |
| Good episode. The back story was very much needed. On other note: They're moving this anime pretty darn fast aren't they? |
| Hmm now we know the past :). |

| I am not sure why I am hating Kanami, he proved himself to be have the best attitude and he loves Yuki! Yet I really really hate him and I would be happy if he died as soon as possible :/ |

| Man. For a while, I was getting kinda irritated by Zero's angsty attitude, but now I'm starting to feel pretty bad for him. His family was killed by vampires, he got turned into one, and now he's having to take all the crap of being treated as the lowest rank on the vampire social tier. Kaname, in addition, is basically playing god by telling him he's allowing him to live for the sake of keeping the love of the girl they're basically fighting over. A whole bunch of this misfortune is nothing but bad luck, so I think all his sulking is justified. |
