Blah - yet another idiot plot.

And Yakumo's dad is essentially super-powered... So who is going to power-up to stop him? (blah, blah, blah)

Oh well, only one episode left ( I hope...)

Yakumo's dad is dead, he did nothing. The uncle seems to have stabbed himself for some reason.
Myuki seems to have pretended (which is supported by the preview where we see her jumping around again)

And even if he did, this episode was focused on neither him not the uncle.

if there were no traces of the "father" possibly he could have been possessed to stab himself, just throwing out a random idea
If your going to complain that Yu-Gi-Oh! Mangas are on the top NY times manga best sellers, you must not realize how popular Card games are(as well as the fact that you get a free card).

After checking back every single day to see if this episode had aired, I finally saw it, and now I just want to watch episode 12! Lol. What does do the episodes air anyway? Is it Thursday like most other animes?

Such a sad episode.
Yakumo's uncle really is such a nice man. I really want to give him a hug now for some reason. Did he really stab himself that too in the prayer room? Seems unlikely for a monk to do so. (Please no Seishin reference)
Haruka smiling all the time kind of creeps me out. True she is helping Yakumo but still I cannot bare her >.>

I really feel bad for Nao :(

And i will never be happy if Yakumo doesn't cry at least once...he must let all those feelings out!

Feels like there is a lot of story left but only 2 more eps? ending may feel rushed.

I think the raws come out on Sunday nights or Monday mornings. The original people that subbed this show dropped it a couple episodes ago, so it's been getting subbed a lot later than usual.

I was kind of wondering if he stabbed himself too, but it doesn't seem like it's in his personality, monk-hood aside. And comparing Isshin to Seishin would just be an insult to Isshin.

I'm glad that they finished the hospital ghost story, because I was kind of confused about why they just seemed to forget about it last episode.

This show is almost over. It's been rather average but still entertaining. I hope they wrap things up well. Miyuki seems to be possessed by Yakumo's dad now, so I'm not sure how I'll like the rest of this.

tragical episode.. I was really sad, when Nao understood that her most closer person is in Dead Brain.. I almost cried, when her tear fall on the picture what she drawed..

I just didn't get it, how he is in Dead Brain, like he was pricked with a knife in his stomach, is that possible, because I'm not really sure..? or maybe it's from his sickness and the wound?

Nao is a pretty strong girl and she has people around her who care for her.
Still Isshin's death is sad he was a very nice man with a good character, it really is a sham he had to die.

Atsuko must be happy she gets to watch after Nao and she seems like the type that would make a good mother.
It's sad for her that she could not get any kids of her own but i think she is very happy to watch after Nao.

I wonder what Yakumo will do next.

Another episode that packs a bit of an emotional punch. I thought it was kind of odd Gotou, who has a record of getting his butt handed to him by everyone, stayed put in the shrine instead of ya know, maybe taking Isshin to a potentially safer, unknown place. These last few episodes have been sad but quite good.

Yakumo's father seems like a spirit who can break the "rules." On the one hand it's always cheap when rules are established in a series that are then broken but perhaps it has to do with his red eyes. This potential twist has at least revived my interest in the villain and his ultimate goal if he has one.

This whole episode was so sad I was literally on the verge of tears the whole time. I can't believe that this is happening to Isshin, he is such a nice person and poor Nao, you can see she's trying to be tough but she must really just want to cry her eyes out.. T.T

Blah to this whole episode. I felt a little sad with the scenes with Nao-chan, but that was it.

The whole thing with him being stabbed in his side and turning up brain dead is so unbelievable for me.

And it just felt sloppy all over, like there is more that should have happen but didn't.

I don't know why you are having a problem with the brain death. If you know anything about the human body you know that the brain needs oxygen to survive. It doesn't matter how you cut off the oxygen...and blood carries the oxygen. There's always the potential for brain death with massive blood loss, it doesn't matter how the blood loss occurs.

Damn brain dead... might we see a twist in that? Well at least I hope so although from the final scene it doesn't look like that tbh. But well his biological father is a ghost after all or what's up with that? The plot is really getting good and tragic at the same time.

I do wonder what the end will be like!

This is one of the few episodes that evoke feelings.
I suppose it's because of Isshin/Yakumo's relationship. Also, Isshin is probably the most deep character. The contact part was touching. But it is really annoying that Haruka is constantly smiling, even in a sad time like this... I suppose she's a character to always see the hope in things, but it's very inappropriate and damages the mood :/

I feel bad for Nao, but Gotou will take care of her.

They explained that already actually due to heavy blood loss.. So the brain got no oxygen and no blood.

So most likely he got possessed to stab himself. This is supported by how he was able to possess Miyuki to jump around like a crazed lunatic.

I cannot believe how useless the cop is. That's been like the third time he got knocked out, and this time was from a single punch from an older man with cancer.

The hospital ghost story is wrapped up for no reason (they did nothing and it turned out to only be an excuse to have them visit the hospital).

Even if Yakumo's father possessed Isshin, he couldn't have brought the knife with him (since he was a ghost) and Isshin didn't have a knife so this still doesn't explain everything. But considering the rest of the anime, I'm not expecting the answer to be interesting.
