I didn't really like the episode until a little after the half way point...up 'till then it was a generic fight scene with minimal movement with an enemy that we don't know too much about, and yet somehow doesn't create any suspicion to me :-/

This episode was pretty good, but did anyone notice the animation quality seemed a bit lacking this episode? A lot of the faces looked...wrong. And just in general the fight was pretty sloppily animated.

Well, it's about time Chaoji got some Innocence. He's been moaning about his lack of usefulness for ages. He still bugs me a bit, though...The new ending is pretty good, I guess. I prefer the old one better, and I'm sick of spoilers in ops and eds. Seriously. Dx Lol.
IMO, this ep was only okayish? I don't like the new Tyki-thing. It just growls a lot and kicks everyone's ass. Although, Allen and Lavi looked really hot at the end of the ep (I'm pathetic for commenting on that, I know), but besides that, the animation didn't strike me as anything fantastic. I don't really like how they animated the fights this time...

Ugh, I know. I could kick them for doing that. I already knew about half the stuff that's happened from the damn opening. And I can never resist watching new openings.

They really should stop it, or only use scenes that have *already* happened.

Or rather, use not so obvious spoilers just like they did in ED06.

I have the feeling that the producers want everyone to continue watching the shows to find out what are the spoilers supposed to mean.

EDIT: Oh yeah, they left a big spoiler too outside the OP & ED.

mmmm - I don't know either... what was the thing they were guarding? the heart?
Also - I never really watch OP and ED so I think I will have to with these to find the spoilers :D
-Edit-
I have seen both the OP and ED of D.Gray-Man and there were a load of spoilers. From the OP you could have guessed that Chaoji would have got some Innocence in the end...

aww, no one likes Chaoji D: Yeah, he's a crybaby, but I think he's kinda sweet... Glad he finally stopped being so useless, haha. Also, whoever said it above, Allen for sure is getting hotter...maybe he'll even surpass Lavi! (pff, yeah right >.<)

I've held off on reading the manga since I like being surprised when watching DGM, but wtf is up with those skull dudes? Next ep should be a good one, especially if "that person" is who I think it is.

Well.... the beginning half of the episode just... SUCKED :D
But I'm glad they made up for it with the second half, Chaoji finally got his innocence !! ^_^ I hope something nice will come outta that :) but GOD am I glad that finally something like this happened, with the whole Tykki thing. FINALLY an opponent that was supposed to be ''defeated'' came back and STABBED EM IN THE BACK , MUAHHAHAHAHA That's what you get with your sorry ass sympathy for not killing your enemies, this is an ACTION anime , not a romance/drama one ! :p That's what happenswhen you don't kill your enemies :D:D
But whoaaaa, I'm curious about those weird skull dudes... I mean... WTF is up with THAT :D

Chaoji was really annoying this episode... and lenalee a bit too, all she said this whole episode was either allen or lavi. Now that I think about it those have been her only lines these last few episodes havent it?

Ya from the opening scenes you should have known Chaoji was going to have innocence wasn't as much of a surprise as it was suppose to be..

Choji and Lenalee were anoying (¬_¬). Allen has pissed me off... apparently he became general? He can't even defat Tykki... With his sword he only make Tykki stronger! Hmm... And Allen want to win with Earl?. IMHO Allen is weak... This anime is slowly reach the bottom.

Tyki level up is far too strong to own them all at once. Aside from a few punching sound that kind of strange for me, it's a really great episode. The flashback was touching, Anita, Mahoja and the crew.:(
Overall, love it.

except for Chaoji's superior amount of WHINE throughout a most of the episode, he got a bit cooler when he synchronized with the innocence : D

yeah, Lenalee's seiyuu has had an easy job for the last episodes, huh?: D
and then, Allen: "I promised Mana that I would continue 'til I drop dead!" *boooom Allen gets overcharged with power* kinda xD. (no that was not exactly what he said, but it's still what he meant : p)

lol XD I know! It's like.."ALLEN-kun" "LAVI" *roll eyes* it was getting really tiring =.=
About the spoilers in the OP and ED...O.O maybe I'm just blind and don't think much but the only spoiler I saw is about Chaoji getting his innocence ^^;; I always watch them to sing a long hehe :3 It's so much fun! But I don't have a singing voice *cough* Oh, the new ED wasn't as entertaining as the old one XO Regret looks like going to be my fav ED for D.Gray-man :D
But awww I hate Tyki has been transformed into that thing <_< and I thought he could be human*sigh* Well, as long as Tyki doesn't look and sound like Tyki then I'm fine and will regard that thing, not Tyki~ fufu

Ah... this episode was "okay". Chaoji annoys the heck out of me, gawd. Maybe I'm just heartless. And seriously, Lenalee kind of annoyed me in this episode too, but not hardly as much as Chaoji annoyed me, since Chaoji has been annoying for a while now...

I guess this episode was only "okay" to me since there seemed to be very little progress... The Tyki thing just growled and beat everyone up and no one could do anything, so it feels less like watching a fight and more like watching the Exorcists get bullied.

What on Earth is up with the skull things? ._.'''

Next episode looks promising... Thank goodness~

It was a pretty boring episode, at least for me, even the animation was poorer this time.
I'm sort of glad Chouji got his innocence already, that way he will change a little and stop being a crybaby...
Next episode looks promising~ I want to see Cross in action.
I think, then procrastinate.
Therefore, I am.

I loved that Chqaoji got innocence- he was so annoying! I don't like this new Tyki! whats happened to him?! maybe something is possessing him? and what are these new gray things? I loved the look of Allen & Lavi at the end!! They work so good together :D
The ending song wasn't great but the pictures were awesome!

New ED with some really interesting looking characters appearing in it! The development of this episode sure was nice some great character and story development all together with a really interesting but confusing ending! Chaoji is rather getting a bit annoying though I do wonder what future role he will have! Lets see what happens next, things sure are getting good!

Yeah I agree Chaoji is annoying...But well at least he's making himself useful now. And as much as I like Lenalee, especially after that level 3 fight, I really wish the author didn't make her such a waste of space on screen. I don't mind that she can't fight, it's understandable because she doesn't have her power right now, but what in the world is the point of having her around right now? We already know that she wants to fight despite not having the power to, but there's no need to give her any more screen time of her doing/saying the same thing, that just makes a (possibly) likable character into an annoying one. I'm hoping there's a point to her being there at the end or something, otherwise her screen time is literally the same thing over and over again. I even feel bad for Itou Shizuka for having to say Allen-kun and Lavi so many times. Maybe it's not the mangaka's fault though, I can see the anime giving her more screen time than in the manga for "fillers."

Also the biggest question is WTF were those skull looking beings. I'm surprised only like one other person mentioned it in this thread. Or I guess half the people here had already been reading the manga.

I'm probably part of a minority, but I didn't like the episode at all.

That random ship guy is shouting this 'Anita-sama, Mahoja-sama, everyone!' dozens of times, even when other people are in front of him.
Thought it couldn't be worse, but he then gets that Innocence.. it's probably because I don't like the character but why him? Although it was obvious from the start when that fragment reacted some episodes earlier, but I rather hoped that something more interesting would happen.

At least we got some interesting stuff with these skeletons and Tyki.
Don't misunderstand me, I love this show, but this is just too much for me.

I can't for some reason post a new reply in the right forum some I'm just going to wait for some mod to move this there or until someone answers my question

In episode 90-91ish Allen gets to know that he can move the arc as well. Why is it that he feels nostalgic about the golden emblem other that the obvious fact that the Noah memory is inside of him,
Is Nea the second millenum earl half, "the good side" does he have good intentions? How does cross know mea so well
