So Shion took a blue pill, eh?


Err, wasn't it supposed to be the red pill? Red pill wakes you to the real world, blue pill lets you remain in the illusion. Though they were both on the run, Neo at least get to choose, Shion was forced into taking the red pill because there's no blue pill at all, or maybe that what's happened to the dead guy at the park and Yamase in the office.
You see there's no need to wonder where your god is,
Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy.

I really liked this episode, the plot goes really fast but I like it :) I do hope they'll start explaining next episode, damn only 11 episodes so 9 to go! :(

Seems like Sion himself has been infected by that weird... insect thing? Since his neck had all those brown marks etc... Guess that's the reason his hair turns white (which I really want to see!) later on.

And I loved the Mezumi-saving-Sion part ^^ But it makes me wonder how he controls/gets the rat to help him

I bet Nezumi x Sion awoke hundreds of fangirls with this episode :P

I'm liking the anime more than i was expecting to. <3
Guess Shion will dye his hair white so he won't be recognized by the police?

i think Mizu will save him and during that his hair will become white.. because others who died also had white hair tho.. Im remined of Allen Walker for some reason.. haha

And wtf are they going to do now in that ugly city ?
Some happy-happy stuff like in the ending song video?
Imo that Mizu guy totally ruined the brownhairs life. D:

Can't really say I'm surprised about the military state and the doom and gloom outside its walls, nothing special there.

The straight forward question from Safu was lolz worthy, btw to the novel readers:
Are we going to see her again, soon?

Also I'm guessing this will be healthy regular bromance and not turn into gay romance?

Btw, the fact that he asked for two years most probably means that this show will span over two years and at the end of it all we get some happy ending? This show doesn't strike me as a dark one.

I was surprised when Safu asked, i expected her to ask for a kiss or something like that, but she is just like that. She's all scientific, like with the stress, other people would have let it be, or said "you'd be sweating" or something, but no, she goes into great details about how the body works when stressed. She was like this in the first episode, too.

So she did not ask him if he loved her, or if he would sleep with her, she askes for his sperm first, and only explains further when he does not understand, or at least if it does look for her like he would not understand.

That he was only slightly shocked on the other hand is interesting, too. Maybe because he knows her for so long, so the two of them got awkward situations regulary.

I think it's obvious that Shions hair will turn white due to the infection (i wondered if they would just ignore the part where the bee came out of his colleagues body when they skipped over to the interrogation, as if nothing happend), but how will they stop it in time? Maybe before the final phase starts, and his hair turning white as after effect, or just in time (though that would be stupid, it happens within seconds).

And the thing about the real world reminds me of Ergo Proxy (or Wolfs Rain), too.

Also, just because he asked for two years doesn't mean it works out that way. He didn't expect to get infectedo, interrogated and having to escape from the city for example. Even if they meet again in two years, same spot, thats not a guarantee for a happy ending. One of them could turn down the other, or one could get shot or whatever.

Obvously, a happy ending is not impossible with the current course of action either, but we'll see soon enough anyways.

I have my concerns over making something with elaborate of a plot as No. 6 into a one-season show for Noitamina. I've seen similar shows like Jyu Oh Sei, Fractale and C suffer quite a bit in their overall quality because there just isn't enough time within 11 episodes to explore every nook and cranny to the world of such titles and thus far, No. 6's pacing seems to be a bit rushed. I admit the premise seems interesting enough with the distopia society. But I doubt 11 episodes will be enough at telling a good quality story with how elaborate No. 6 appears to be passing itself off as.

Uh you probably won't see her for awhile and why should it matter if he has feelings for her or not? That is not the core of what this series is really about.

I think it's waaaay more interesting now, I wouldn't watch this if all the guy did was to live is normal life in that wicked society...anyway, it seems that Shion already had an unresigned soul, but without Nezumi he wouldn't have been excluded from wherever he lived...well maybe it's me, but...I'd rather freedom in a ugly rotten tent than a diamond prison, figuratively and because it's sth beautiful to say, in practice I'd shut up and eat just like everyone else.

busters said:
okay i know i mentioned this already last week, BUT JFC THE SIMILARITIES BETWEEN THIS SHOW & 1984 SCARE ME LMAO. government being a creepy-chan & stalking its citizens, yep.


Though in 1984 he went with the girl...XD But 1984 was worse (as far as I know...ep 2, I can't really tell)...there was no outer world...no way out. (Ergo Proxy has an ideal city and an outer world, kind of the same concept (though I know nothing about no.6 yet...)).
1984 is one of the most scary/horrifying things I've ever read/seen/imagined...so...(don't mention it again, please...just kidding XP...


I was not expecting such a direct girl, I blinked twice.

Siva said:
Not bad for an episode, but the episode shed no light of what the heck is going on or where the heck are we going. On the other hand, they did time-skip without give a damn to viewers I was like " Didn't last episode he was still a kid and now he is a big boy, did I miss an episode or something? "


^^ I have to agree with this...(though I, personally, loved the episode...I was like ohhhh :( when it ended...)

And again...shounen-ai isn't yaoi...damn. Somehow, I can understand love between humans without gender restrictions (*cries* it's so beautiful...)...so I don't care if it's shounen-ai, shoujo-ai, "normal" ai...This story seems interesting, I'm 99,9999% sure I'll stick with it.

My main conclusion: uh uh Nezumi is AWESOME!!

Anyway, im still really liking this. The episode had a nice mix of comedy and drama.
Although, at first I thought the sperm line was a troll sub lol

Well, im looking forward to seeing what happens next.
Looks like that wasp is what changes Shions appearance.

This show just threw me a curveball (girls asks guy to have sex with her)


From one side we have people shouting that it's not about gay people and yaoi but on the other this show throws staff like that. It's like the whole thing was put there so he can deny her and make him seem more gay. The same about the conversation about the other dude seeing him naked.
It's disappointing that they throw this shit like that and can't leave it be a story about crazy people control, lack of any kind of freedom, lack of human rights and people in power abusing authority.
It can have such a strong message with the world is build around, that trying to play with our heads about having yaoi elements or not seems such a waste.

The episode was nice though and lets hope that they will keep focus on the plot and stop trying to throw any further sexual innuendos like that.

It's called fleshing out the characters and gives the characters something to do when not fighting against "the man."

You'd be better off hoping for world peace. The only people's heads that are getting messed with are the ones unable to grasp or deny the emotions presented in the story between the two characters. It's not the writer's fault some people are not mature to accept what is being told.

Surprising that Safu may leave city even though it's ruled this way. She should stay there actually for her safety.

I was wondering what Safu will ask for, but when she told him "I want your sperm." my mind got blown up. Well, I guess it was OK considering she loved him since years and now, when I came to my senses, I love this scene - she was so honest with him, really kawai!
About what happened after - Shion lost his access to the city, probably for ever from now on. How is he gonna' date Safu now? How is he even gonna' meet her after being considered a rebel and when he lives in the harsh reality out there?

Okay. So, I'm liking this anime a lot so far. But I just have to say, and sorry to be rude, but I HATE Safu. Like... what? Seriously, what???????

When I watched the part where she asked Shion... that thing... I was like... uh.

I mean you can't just go up to a guy and say that!!! You just can't!! Plus, she's annoying. WHY DID HE AGREE TO DO IT WHEN SHE CAME BACK?!! He'll change his mind, he has to. Or she'll mysteriously disappear forever. Maybe he was just saying that to get rid of her, and inside he was thinking HOLY GOD WTF DID SHE JUST ASK ME NO WAY SISTA DON'T YOU KNOW I'M GONNA RUN OFF AND HAVE A BUNCH OF MAN BABIES WITH NEZUMI

That's what he was saying in my mind anyway, and I will continue to believe that. Because honestly, jokes aside, Even after just the first episode I thought the relationship between Shion and Nezumi was just too sweet. He looked after him and didn't turn him in, even tending to his wounds! And when they held hands on the bed... omg... even people who aren't fans of shounen ai can surely see how sweet it is? <3

For being a Bones show, the animation and art is rather weak at times.

While there are Yaoi undertones I doubt it's actually going that way, can't believe people are actually dropping this cause of that.
