| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Actually not bad episode. You get your motivation for 'the future' or rather more of it - You get more glimpses into Rose (especially) and some bit on LP's That and I enjoyed Ai - all around an enjoyable episode. Though I wish the battle was a tich longer. |

| "Doors 7" That was actually kinda funneh. But really, they should stop this, I don't like how they introduce a new great character, and then they're like "herp derp now we're finished with that one, bai bai". Maruga and Ai are like, a thousand times better than Eriko and Rose, and what do they do? They scrap those two after their respective arcs are finished. |
| Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile. Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(ﾟДﾟщ) Nope™, probably not. |

Thats the problem with this type of series and making it into a 12 episoder.. Rather than a 24ish .. Remember when 20+ was the norm and 12-14 wasnt? sigh |
| So Ai wasn't a victim of racism she was just thought to believe so by her master. Who had fallen pretty low even considering her to be a pet and even experimented on her, and he showed no remorse for her till the end. Luckily for her she still has someone to return to, her father seems like a man who would take good care of her. Tho i wonder what happened to her mother. Ryuji is very noble tho a bit naive and i wonder if the Society is really such a good organization as it claims to be. I also wonder if the wont exploit both him and Rose for there capability's. |
| I don't know why, but watching this makes me remember "Asubi ni Iku yo" looks like biting can be really effective against those black rope things |
| Well, where to start? Hmm, the first half of the episode was promising...but the second half, I felt as it was disastrous. They were like teleporting all over the place. Maybe it is just my opinion but it felt extremely rushed. In only 10 minutes, Ai finds out she was betrayed all the time, escapes with Ryuuji, she finds out that she doesn't have wolf blood, how that guy managed to put 5 Lost Precious in him, a little battle and his utter defeat after a stoic "I want to protect everyone I love" and "Help everyone in need" speech by Ryuuji. Anyway, after this episode I'm quite disappointed with the show overall and I really hope to make a comeback in the next episodes(because I'll be watching it to the end, anyway...) |
| aw.. I was going to mention "Doors 7" also but you beat me :P, I also wish the battles were a bit longer, but, I still love the build ups I imagine Ryuji will get more jobs because he will be the "good" level 10 Breaker Anyway, episode made me think of how evil that one guy was and how much I wanted to kill him for lying to Ai.... |
Oosran said: "Doors 7" That was actually kinda funneh. [...] Yesh. Episode with lots a clichees :/, anyways much Ai. |
| Lol, so the bad guy was a combination of Dr. Octopus, Gaara and Blackbeard =O Damn, would be 100times better if Ai would stay with Ryuuji -.- |
 |
| I actually quite enjoyed that episode... I also think that the characters they introduce, then get rid of after 2 eps, are much more interesting than the main characters. I <3 Ai. :/ Good bit of story.... not bad. |
  |
| That would just become a harem anime haha . Joke but seriously. Well it was quite all right. Ryuji decide to register in society of a level 10 breaker. |

They let the best character of the show go while keeping generic Rie voice loli #4534. Maybe it will improve later on. Who knows. |

| Limited script, rushed rhythm and forced developments. That was a really average one. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |

| How convenient that he was left with one Lost Precious and that particular LP provided the perfect means to escape... Aside from that, a nice arc. Interesting that Ai(ka) turned out to be human with LP embedded in her, which means she's actually a high level breaker too. |
 |
| I want see More Ai she so beautiful i think good episode i dont hated,only bad guy he is fusion of the others bad guys rsrs |
| Here I thought Ai would stay with them (sigh). Anyways nice episode and most definitely can't wait for the next episode. Jeez, I still wish Ai would have started living with them. |

| Hm... nice episode. Nice development at Ryuji's character. Kinda interesting how his name is Ryuji and he has engaged with a Dragon. |
| Only 5 eps left and Ryuji now decides to register with the society as a breaker? *smh* |
 |
| This really was a great episode though I wish that the fight dragged on a bit longer... I felt that it was a bit too short me!!! Waaahh please don't pull another Maruga on us, Ai err... Aiko was really starting to develop well and we were just about to get to know her better. And I was kinda hoping that she'd stay with Ryuji, guess not huh? BUT what are the odds that that dude would have one last lost precious on his body? And I think there shouldve been more Rose though that's only my opinion T___T anyhoo, loved Ryujis speech about protecting others... but that was to be expected (in my opinion again) oh and I don't get the whole darkness thing that Ryuji was going through when he was captured by that dark snake thing, was that a flash back or something??? I dunno... All in all, great episode and I can't wait for the next!!! |
| I wish they would follow the cliche of all the girls staying with them. Ai better visit again before the end of the season...or if they make another season have all the girls around much more often. |
| Looks like Ryuuji is turning into Touma v2. |
| Nice episode. I feel sad for Ai knowing she was used her whole life, but at least in the end, even though they didnt show it, she got her family back. |
 |
| Ai, you will be missed. |
Spirit_Sempai said: Lol, so the bad guy was a combination of Dr. Octopus, Gaara and Blackbeard =O Rofl, yeah, an epic combination xD |
| Ai <3 I'm going to miss her... A LOT, she shouldve stayed with Ryuuji >w< |
| Quite good. I hope we see Ai again :3 |
 |
| Bah, this gets more and more lame with each episode. |
| So Ai is that bald guy's child? Didn't see that coming. But man, Furumori. Those lost precious in his body gave him some really nice tattoos there. He was a bit of a jerk back there for capturing her to be used as a pet. She believed in him, whom she thought believed in her. Then again, society can partly be blamed for letting his girl die, driving his urge for revenge. (The cliche's... They burn) But more importantly, I think one of the production crew must be a huge fan of Spider-Man (Villains). I mean, just look at Furumori. He's got powers from Dr. Octopus, Flint Marko and even that shadowy thing which isn't exactly but kinda reminds me of Venom's. |

| Rose has a berserk button, hurt Ryuuji and you die. |
 |
| To bad Ai's gone, I kinda liked her, she was so cute :| |
 |
| A good episode, Ryuji is definitely a straight forward, honest type of guy. In the end, this enemy wasn't a terrible person either, although he definitely did some bad things. Spirit_Sempai said: Lol, so the bad guy was a combination of Dr. Octopus, Gaara and Blackbeard =O When I saw his arms, I instantly thought of Dr. Octopus. I part of me wants to go watch Spider-man -_-' Spirit_Sempai said: Damn, would be 100times better if Ai would stay with Ryuuji -.- At first I thought she may stay with them, but it turns out she isn't going to. I really hope she visits at some point, I would love to see her again. |
| I loved Ai i'm going to miss her :( And I agree with And1c Ryuji is a boring character! |
 |
| Meh, if i knew Ai won't appear anymore at all then i'd drop this shit now, but i can't be sure so i'll go with it... D : |
| レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |
| I want to know whether that guy was telling the truth at the end when he said Ai was just a pet. Ai doesn't seem too devastated over his reply. |
| :| needs to be a 24 ep series. |

Ai doesn't seem too devastated over his reply. I bet this is what he said "I love you, treat me as your pet!" woof <3 xDD Anyway, lame episode is all I could say... couldn't stop facepalming... but this doesn't mean I hate this show, just didn't like this episode(they get rid of Ai)... I'll wait for the next one xDD |

| Ryuuji why do you always fight for someones sake... The fight was alright but it was sort of expected that Rose come to aid him and Ai. Sort of feeling sorry now how Ai was used even though she had a family else where, it always better to hear the truth rather than lies. |

Agree that they should keep characters around, though I like Rose :3 Eriko can leave, keep Rose and Ai around and I'll be happy. Oh well, honestly I wasn't expecting to enjoy a DEEN shounen this much, and yet this season has two DEEN shows I'm following and enjoying (the other being zombie obviously, not starryblah). |
| AI was great, I think this really should be a 24 episode series. I like how the True Love lost precious works especially the "she's a cute girl I want to protect her" moment. |
| I finished watching episode 7... Oh Man, it left within me many thoughts. At the beginning we see Ai started to have doubts of what she's been so far after she betrayed Eriko's hospitality and kidnapped Ryuuji by her master orders, she started as individual to think about the just of the things she's been doing up until now and was it right to treat back Ryuuji's kindness with such a way as much as kidnapping him. Now with all these doubts inside her heart comes the artefact "The Love Tears" and reveal some of his hidden agenda, to find that the person who was like a guardian to her, the dearest person to her was nothing but an illusion, that thing alone caused her reality to start crumble! To make things worse, Furumori revealed all the truth to her when she escaped with Ryuuji, that made poor Ai go into a mental blank shock status, that she lost all her reality, Now some might think that's not that big deal of an issue and its not calling for such a reaction. But if one were to see things from her perspective, She is a innocent girl who is been raised or rather brainwashed by Furumori and that dude has been doing all kind of experiments on her since she was 7 or 8 months old [I don't recall the exact age when she was kidnapped] and augmented her body with the artefact The Wolf Fang just because she is a level 8 Breaker that doesn't change that fact she was still just a baby.. Whatsoever reasons was behind Furumori twisting personality, to be putting 20 people into coma, kidnapping and causing a baby to undergo a mutation all for his experiments sake, I can say one thing for sure he is the worst, that's all. So such a guy has been making her believe that all this was for the righteousness and he is her partner till the better end, turns out to be nothing more than a a freak twisted scum. Normally that would put any girl like her into a heavy emotional shock for who knows how long will last for example Hinamori Momo and Aizen case [sorry I can't think of better example at the moment]. Fortunately, Ryuuji was by her side, pulling her out from that state, that girl deserve some praising, don't you think so guys? |
 |
| Cliches are everywhere and felt rushed. I hope we can see Ai again some time. |
| Huu, i enjoyed it but that doesn't mean it was perfect at all. Can't really argue against the points of introducing characters that disappear, or how it feels a little rushed. I guess, i'll just admit, i like the cliches they pulled. Always liked righteous male leads that get stuff down other then the failure ones. |

 |
| Pretty nice episode. even though it all was a little cliché at the end, the whole arc around Aiko really interested me. At the end her master said that he never loved her and she was only a pet right? He must've lied and he actually felt more than that because the earrings rang. ^^ Shame she isn't joining the crew though, but as someone here already stated; it's also good to break the cliché of every saved character joining them.
