| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Miyu-Miyu finally talked (and talked a bit more!) Continuing from last ep. Doctor = technician to always repair whenever he's broken, and also not human. lol @ capturing the closet... Eh? Kazamori transferred in doll? Wow, AI knows how to "please" people... creepy. Father is the the one who created those AI, who supposed to be died? He doesn't want others to use AIs for "wrongdoings". Kazamori transferring back to real body... so "Kazamori" killed to "enemy" to protect real killer? |

| Robo-doll fetish + creepy old dude = disgusting case... Anyways Inga rules :D |
| My favorite character of this series was finally introduced. Good episode. |
 |
| Oh yeah, that was the best episode yet. |
| レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |
| best and favorite episode yet and the things i have written here "my analysis of the episode, not entirely though. so basically, Kazamori's secret is already known to Itoji and especially Kagihiko to begin with(you can see him interact w/ Kazamori, possibly the A.I. during the start of the ep), and Kigihiko's line "We didn't kill Kazamori. There's no way we could have killed him" caught our MC's eye on the way he said it not because it implies that there is no reason for them to kill Kazamori but they utterly have NO MEANS to kill him. Kagihiko is also telling Itoji that "they should tell him, otherwise they'll be.." accused of the crime, and that's were the surveillance cameras came into rescue that halt they're revelation about Kazamori. those also lead to our MC having Inga asked the question "Who is Sasa Kazamori? Whose face is under the mask?" one question is, what are the consequences for having Kagihiko and Itoji revealing the truth about Kazamori that they so hesitant to do so even after "the supposed to be Kazamori being burned alive" and one other thing is, WHO DID GET BURNED?" in ep.3 discussion board has been proven and answered w/c made me felt really satisfied. i find it kinda funny how Hayami dare arrest a refrigerator, and with handcuffs too oh, Shinjuurou's speech here is worth noting, and the end of the ep is just great Shinjuurou + Inga + Kazamori = pure win |

| Best episode so far! I hope next episode will be awesome as well |

Kazamori transferring back to real body... so "Kazamori" killed to "enemy" to protect real killer? Nope. Kazamori didn't kill anyone. The killer in both cases was the father. All Kazamori did was try to not let the innocent people take the blame. |
|
| Hhm, I wonder what Inga did to the men in the alley... Anyway, this show keeps impressing me with its description of its setting especially regarding politics and human instinctive behaviour such as the desire for violence and sexual satisfaction. Also, I certainly didn't expect the black-haired girl in the opening to be connected to this case not to mention to be Kazamori herself in the first place. |

| Eh. Better than other episodes. It's trying to fiddle with deep topics, like sexual desire and politics and what-not, but it's not doing a good job currently IMO. When it gets to Brave New World level, I'll be amazingly impressed. Well, but this is anime ;).. xD It's not a BAD anime, I just feel that their not executing their interesting ideas well enough to appeal to the audience. I'm sure this show is deep and amazing in the writer's head, but it's not getting to us as much, or at least, that's what I think. |

|
| I didn't like the episode. It seemed like it stood still all the time, and I have to say. I was bored. Hopefully it picks up again. |
| First episode was extremely bad. The ones following it was relatively crappy too. It seemed to get slightly better last week, not sure how this week will follow up. All I know is that Inga is a shit mechanic that shouldn't be implemented. On the side note, good art and animation, likable OP/ED themes too. Taking a few notes while watching: Being seduced by a panda doll? No big deal. "I can do with him as I like"- such an ambiguous term, considering the uses they had for the robots. Also, does anyone notice how similar his robot is to his daughter? that' s not oddly creepy at all. In unison with the quote above this, I think him being secluded for nine years was the safest plan for everyone around him. Overall the episode was decent, 3/5. It's just that Inga is such a shit mechanic, it's like playing a video game on hard mode with cheat codes. Hopefully it gets somewhat better. |

Thinking about it, this dystopia kind of intrigues me. Usually when we read about these things, we start from the bottom, the common people. We do see those people in some scenes, but each of the cases involves the upper crust instead. Edi: Well I just realized Inga is Yui. |

| Good episode finally.. ...and...that...that bear was....oh god...rape... |
 |
| Great show, didn't expect that after the first episode. Wonder how it all will end. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |

Note to self, Un-Go is actually a JRPG I'm kind of entertained how this show plays with gender. Inga is a young boy who is also a really sexualized woman. Kazamori goes from an AI pretending to be a man, to a rape bear, to a token loli girl. |

By the time Inga gets into fullgear Shinjurou(Rinroku probably has it solved be that) has already solved the case and only needs to present his evidence in order to make the guilty party crack. Inga's One-Question mode is barely a shortcut worth mentioning until we find out why she is attached to Shin. |

| This anime is only slated for 11 eps. right..... so BONES better start with shinjurou's background/past story because... it's getting really frustrating.. and BTW shinjurou and doll-fetish moment #weird.. nuff said |
| The bear molesting Shinjurou was so awkward XD |
| just rewatched UN-GO ep.4 and i can't help but smile in the end. I just love its mix of politics, conspiracy, mystery drama and philosophy, reminiscent of what i love w/ Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex,though they're utterly different. oh, and this came to me after waking this morning, from what i've seen, Inga feels an "irresistible need to feed" (thus transforming) when she's near humans who are feeling a great deal of emotional guilt or burden, like for ep.1, when she's near the victim's wife, in ep.2, when they are talking w/ the 2 of Yonagahime's, and in ep.3, when they are w/ Itoji and her family entirely different from her voluntary transformation w/ Kazamori in the car special1chad said: This anime is only slated for 11 eps. right..... so BONES better start with shinjurou's background/past story because... it's getting really frustrating.. and BTW shinjurou and doll-fetish moment #weird.. nuff said i don't think it will be explored entirely because they have this slated for that http://myanimelist.net/anime/11531/UN-GO_episode:0_Inga-ron |

The series would be slightly more logical if the character itself didn't exist, or the function of the character changed at very least. It's not very logical having the cheat code, while not using it. |

I think you're getting to wrapped up in the murders and ignoring the bigger issues like, the conspiracy going on with the government and why Shin always says female Inga is his boss. |

| Possibly because she is the boss, and she decides when and who to feed on. If the desire to feed is triggered by a heightened emotional state, he has to proceed far enough along the case to make that possible. What he provides is the right question to ask, while she is feeding (since sometimes the person to ask is not the perpetrator of the crime). Also it might just be wise to restrict his use of her abilities since it just might be possible that someone would object to an entity feeding on human emotions. I think that is a logical reason (or at least logical enough to pass muster for an anime). Also I think they made more explicit the comparison between the law in the anime that prohibited RAI, and the law IRL that was passed regarding anime and manga that featured unacceptable content. The arguments on both sides of those issues (fictional and real) have a lot of parallels. All in all, I think this is very well done. |

Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| Every episode I'm loving this anime more and more. This whole episode added a lot to the setting/background, which I think is the part I like most about this show. That and the characters, which we had some pretty interesting stuff concerning Shinjirou and Inga. That whole part in the car then afterwards in the alley was...interesting, to say the least. Also, is it just me or does it seem like the episodes in this series are shorter than other series' episodes? They just seem to be over so quickly. Perhaps it's all the talking. |
  |
| This needs more than 11 episodes.... At least there's the movie to look forward to. |

| Awesome episode. |
| Pretty interesting episode to say at least. I still find Inga to be a rather cliche reason to appear in this show. I mean what exactly the reason to make her appear in this show since Shinjuro can do the job perfectly fine on his own. I also find her one-question-must-answer is pretty lame. If I remember correctly, they stated in the first episode that she can only ask one question to a person and that person must answer it(due to her ability) and we saw her ask the same person more than one question. |
 "A Legend is but a tale of a beautiful lie." |
| Interesting conclusion to the arc. What I find amusing is that the scene where the RAI transferred to the girl-android boy still managed to surprise me despite it's pretty much the same from the previous ep. So I guess she's a recurring character now. Also, Inga is still mysterious as hell. He/she has another ability aside from forced-answering-a-question. I hope it keeps better. |

"Who is Sasa Kazamori? Whose face is under the mask?" but as soon as Yuuki mentioned "her sole question" the only thing she ask in the end is "Who is Sasa Kazamori?" and followed the same as w/ the previous eps and i kinda agree this show would be better w/o her ability, just the normal boy Inga, but still her "true role" hasn't been revealed yet so we can just truly judge after the series finishes but i guess, with or without her powers i'm pretty sold to this series. best for me this season. I love how its having "complexity and substance" beneath its mystery cases. |

mdz said: I'm not ignoring the bigger issues, just focusing on the main unreasonable issue. Is there any logical reason besides selffish pride on why he wouldn't use Inga initially for every case on every person once? Initially who that one person is and what should be asked by Inga's not known at the beginning. "Did you kill that guy" won't provide the Inga with the information she requires, truth about how humans behave. Solving mysteries is the vehicle used by Shin to give Inga what she wants. For any reason more specific than that and we'll have to wait for the actual mysteries, government&Inga, to unfold. |
|
| XD The bear "turning on" Shinji was like OMG....lol........and who gave the bear a tongue in the first place? I wonder if she's gonna follow the two around now every ep or only pop up once and awhile and/or help them behind the scenes). |
(My avatar is an original creation-please don't take it) |
| Once again an unbelievably clever and well-directed episode. I don't understand how the director of a series which could be as abysmally bad as Gundam 00 at times can do a show as brilliant as this one. And the setting is fantastic too, pretty close to Kamiyama's GITS:SAC (the tone also). Lestrade said: Hhm, I wonder what Inga did to the men in the alley... No answer to be found in the anime and that's precisely why the direction is sheer genius. You understand without even knowing and without having the need of being told. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| wasn't so sure about un-go at first, but it really seems to be hitting it's stride with this episode - i really have grown to love the different characters - interesting story line - i hope they do more of these two part+ episodes - the plot finally has time to develop... |
 |
| So Kazamori will be featured more in this series? She is a robot, which means she will inevitably be my favourite character. |
