THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
The guy got out, with getting hurt.

The mirror with "another world", and made a duplicate self. She hurt duplicate to make more duplicates, so that Fear can awake her true self.

Class rep. in hurt moment, and the guy is mad.

lol @ those two dolls (but to the rescue!). The he/she doll can move Chloe and the mirror is broken. Now Chloe can move. Then they're gone.

Being human is blissful? The woman getting "Eaten" by strange doll... A man came, with another tomboy-ish girl. (Their family?) Alice's intention?

More dance. Nice end, but seems like there's 2nd season to it. (new battle on that doll family...)

The ending also shows the festival and family. Being doll or not, it does not matter.

Wasn't expecting Alice to live much less that man which is her lover that saved her being a cursed object himself.

Alice squeezing Kirika's organs was disturbing

Soverngnty's use of Kuroe was great and broke that mirror of doppelgangers.

The end may be an indication of a second season.

The episode itself was the best in action terms in regards to Fear in combat. A few elements to develop would be.

-That new tool to break Alice’s weapon looks pretty scary but I was wondering why it did not kill Alice since it dragged her inside.

-That girl with that small knife in the following,

that countered at the end Fear is mighty interesting to me. Need to see her.

-Unlike Hoppy, I found that lame ass annoying censoring of Alice’s clones being drilled by Fear was far more freaky with the way it was done. I despised those lame ass censor. This Blood-C all over being censored. Major BS.

-I find that french kissing that cursed cross was repulsive as follows in an avatar mode:

It’s like not only blasphemous but plain deranging in this series of anything like that. Think of Alice loving Jesus. That is disturbing but so was the gore among other variations of fetishes from leather stuff to classical torture doctrines being applied.

-Can’t really deny Alice’s fan service in the spoiler
considering it shows her breasts and ass to a satisfying exposition and angle.
Not sure like below of any details being added there just that manga has them. That’s all I can tell and know.


Seeing this end sure brings some mixed feelings. On one hand I was totally impressed by
http://myanimelist.net/people/6753/Oonuma_Shin
That guy was totally amazing and I pointed out many many times his arts and presentations that were such wins in EF and in this series as matter of fact.

Now going with this arc, I can say that Alice was far worst off than Peavy in many senses. The arc brought not really much closure but more of a season 2 transition. That being said the BDs should have upper ecchi with nipples and all for obvious sale as well as focus on the gore uncensoring. Minor touch ups too. The reason I mention the nipples is that the manga has them already.

That being mentioned this whole series failed in a sense that MOE + Gore despite having a good interesting mix up does not add up with some people. The reason for that is something that is cute but had killed before much or murdered much cannot be possibly cute for the things it has done are not. It totally goes against character but like I said this is what made the anime funny in a sense.

The fan service was fine loli wise and breast wise however Konoha’s breast fan service was getting old so fast it was insane. I shall leave as 8/10 with a open 9 for BDs if they make things better on average. That I shall have to see. Maybe more later.

BTW End art and one at the beginning in the spoiler
are Fear terrific. The end one is ecchi nice of Fear.

Only good thing about this anime is the OP themes and the action.

Objective Score: 3/10. It’s the irritating type of below average, it’s not good, and it’s not enjoyable. This show was actually one of the few that I fell behind on due to the incessant bullshit I put through while watching it.

Subjective Score: 3/10: It’s still shit. If you’re into tentacles, panty shots, incessant fan service, and boobs, you’ll probably like this. If you want a decent storyline, or even decent characters, you probably wouldn’t like this. The show is mostly fan service, and the plot itself is mostly ridiculous and only used to further develop the fan service

Maybe it's just me but this episode feels a bit rushed

Especially this...

Sovereignty shows up and destroy the mirror in 3 seconds

And this...

Kuroe was able to capture multiply of them instantly
(but Kirika wasn't able to do anything)


But overall, I like the battle scenes and the art.

Kirika's cursed item is nothing compared to the vast control and power not to mention rigid hair of Kuroe. Simply no match at all.

Besides that psychologically Alice would be the least in good shape to harm Kuroe at all. That 's why she used watche's power to immobilize her instead.

Ok... honestly i really feel if a different study would have picked this up... this would have been so much better. The fight animations where very blocky and it really looked just cheap imo. On top most of the time i felt i was looking at something that wanted to be SHAFT really hard but wasn't quite there (Well the director i believed did some work with shaft but the quality was just missing).

Anyways, things felt rushed towards the end, to bad it didn't ran for 24 episodes.

Solid 7, maybe an 8 with another season.

So basically,


The biggest issue with this episode was the standard enemy-explains-to-you-her-own-weakness shit that appears in every anime that has fight scenes.

Another thing that didn't make sense was why Konoha looked so exhausted before Yachi asked her to turn into a sword because from what I remember she didn't suffer any injuries prior to that.

Yachi forcing out of the handcuffs, Fear drilling Chloe's clone and Inchou-san's insides getting squeezed......ouch........

Shiraho's epic rescue was a tad too fast and overpowered I must say, but it made sense that Chloe disabled Kuroe first because she knew that having Kuroe in the fight actively would be game-breaking. Sovereignty was WTF.

Chloe also seemed awkwardly and artificially weakened at certain times. Especially when her mirror broke. I thought she would know better than to get distracted by the doll-duo and get her mirror broken. But I guess that was planned out from the beginning since she dug her own grave by giving a college-level lecture on her precious mirror.

Another plothole: If the replicas were 100% accurate, I bet that if the original Chloe was immobilized by Kuroe, she would do better than sit out the fight. Kuroe's shinzo mode is just way friggin overpowered here. So overpowered that the Families girl who cut her hair at the end seemed impossible. Iron Maiden was absolutely badass but it suffers from the above problem as well.


I AM SO LOOKING FORWARD TO SEASON 2!!!!!!!

Good episode,fuck you censoring.

The fight was not bad but it feel kinda rushed,the censoring was annoying and made it even worse specially when she was getting killed by the drill....that was creepy,Alice squeezing Kirika organs was fuck up also.

But also it was nice to see all the cursed tools fight together to defeat her specially when Sovereignty use Kuroe like that to destroy the mirror that made lol.The last tool Fear use was awesome and ya.....how the hell she didnt die??

At the end she is saved by her "family",crazy french kiss with the cursed cross and another loli yay,this just increase that there will be another season at least.

Now this anime has his big flaws but also had his moments they overuse sometime the same jokes and in some episodes the timing for me was bad,but still it was a fun anime,regular ecchi good gore(at least i hope i can see it in the BD's) and FEAR!!!! that is one of the cutest Loli i remeber,i give it a 7 and can go to 8 depending on the BD's.

Lets wait for the next season!

I give this series 6/10. The action was good but the story and everything else was average. Seems like we are probably getting a season 2.

It seems like every anime that had 12-13 episodes this season ending with a cliff hanger. Fate Zero, C3, Horizon, and i cant think of the others atm. lol

I give the series a 6 out of 10 as well. It made a great recovery from the deceiving episode 1. I loved the action in this episode 12 (Fear should have been using multiple punishments the whole time) and everyone fighting together was nice. Haruaki has honestly been pretty worthless but at least he did do something.

Peavy was still the best villain and no one else seemed to compare. Alice was close thanks to hear attacks and such (lovely lasers). I really liked Alice's voice as well as personality which fit in well with being a villain.

I just hate how characters are introduced in the last six minutes of the episode. I hope they give us a second season.

Because the body was bleeding out so much that Kuroha got totally brain fucked. She can't stand blood at all. Like nada.

You mean the following,

of whom I find the most freaky of all. The organ and drilling do not compare to the firght on that part but I don't think that is Iron Maiden at all. I though one of the last disks restricted Fear, the one before the doll arc to be precise. The one from Amanda.

Which BTW was the most emotional arc with Peavy none of the other BS arcs can compare to that. Amanda was the most T__T and nothing else was.

Dammit. Another great anime comes to a close. :( I really enjoyed this one, although it felt rushed. I think that the final battle should have been longer than that - at least two episodes. Pretty anti-climatic if you ask me.

New curses, new characters, new villains?! I smell season two! (Hopefully)

some difference from light novel.

Haruaki pulled his right hand from handcuff. some flesh from his right hand got scraped.
Blood was flowing from the wound, but he couldn't scream because Fear would snap again.
He said Kuroe to heal him later.
He then wrapped his hand with handkerchief so Konoha won't see the blood and pass out.
(in anime, blood was suddenly gone. and his hands were ok)

Konoha was vomitting from watching blood from Kirika's organ squeezing.
That's why she couldn't help much in battle.
When Haruaki was flying and slammed into wall, he found out sword was slient. Konoha was passed out.

#29 "the blessed virgin mary embraces you".
iron virgin mary statue has countless spikes on its front side.
it can squeeze its victim into spikes using its arms.
the statue flied straight to Alice.
the only thing Alice could do was holding cannibal cooker to block spikes.
then Fear controlled statue's arms and tried to embrace.
the statue squeezed and shattered the cannibal cooker into pieces... and made several holes into Alice as well.

(on the boat) After Alice used cross to reflect #5 skewer and Kuroe's hair, she lost consciousness.
Then Kirika said to Narrow-Narrow-Abyss "I am sister of Yamimagari Pakuaki. your family must've heard of that!. I am with these people now. you know what it means? if you touch any of these people or me, it means declaring of a war against the laboratory."
Narrow-Narrow-Abyss said "hmm... that's a big problem. I will remember."

Even though Kirika has quitted the lab, her bluff will cause very serious problem.
(so serious, it will span over next 2 volumes of light novel)

after boat was gone, Haruaki realized the pain on his right hand.
Kuroe wrapped her hair several times on Haruaki's hand. then she re-wrapped handkerchief.
Fear said she was sorry. then remembered the healing would speed up if wrapped area is in warm place.
Fear grabbed Haruaki's hand and placed it on the warmest place on her body, her breast.
Haruaki felt it was warmer than her hands.
Konoha transformed back into human form and tried to stop them. then she tried to do the same thing with her breast.
Kuroe stopped Konoha saying it's dangerous.
Konoha realized she was naked.

since anime omitted about 'the warm place speeds up healing' fact, above ecchi moment was cut.

later, #14 cat's paw and #29 virgin mary statue were sealed.

The iron maiden was really interesting not to mention freaky and all the abstract scenes to obscure the gore were quite creative.

Looks like the producers are hinting at another season with all the characters they introduced near the end but I'm not sure if it will happen.

Oh good, it shall be ecchi feasting time at its arrival. This will be a long wait since one Vol = 1 month wait.

Do wonder what the changes shall be in added scenes only. The gore/ecchi kind of expect it to be better already in the BDs. Remains to see how.

Alright episode, had some decent combat.
I probably won't watch Season two if it comes out, I've just found this series just to be mediocre and with no real focus on what genre it wants to see itself as, too many switches between genre's

If the episodes were like this one then it would not have been as bad overall, but the series was dragging so much lost alot of interest in the show and just watched to complete it.

5/10 for overall Series, 7/10 for this episode

Hmmm ... Well that was the end. The fight was actually pretty good but not cool as this bit** (forgot the name) at the beginning of the series, maybe it's because there was no Fear Killing Mod^^. Too many things remained unexplained. I liked the OP. Especially the second one. There were some good episodes, comedy, brutality, and madness. But there were also a few weak episodes. I give 7.5 for the entire series.
The second season, needed.

A couple of times during this episode's first ten minutes I couldn't believe what I was watching. It was just too stupid for words.

The last scene redeemed it a tiny bit, along with Shiraho's over the top entrance. She was embarrassed but she played it straight. I have to admire that. Enough so that I may re-watch the episodes she was in.

Overall, I have to say that the series sucked. It earned a 4 on the season.

The characters spent too much time standing around, waiting for their part. While fighting, they spent too much time blathering. The whole premise was a fail since Fear was introduced as being something an order of magnitude more horrible than anything else. But in the end, she was mostly a cute kid and not really tougher than anyone else. As such, nothing much seemed to happen when she fought with anyone. The Iron Maiden effect was well done this episode and the giant, spinning gear looked good although it was always rather ineffectual.

Kirika seemed to have some potential as a character but never really seemed to get untracked. If they'd paced themselves better (i.e. less standing around doing nothing or blathering), then they could have developed all of the characters some more. She would have benefitted from it.

Finally, I didn't get the point of all the gore and such. It didn't really add anything to the show but I felt it did diminish it. And given that the show wasn't offering much to begin with (although the artwork was often good), it would have been better using the time and energy for something else.

Not so bad, but also not very good episode. It's obvious that second season must be, because end of ane battle is start of another one.
Average mark?.. For first episode it was 6/10, for next four -- 9/10, for 6-8 -- 7/10, for 9 - 9/10, for 10-11 -- 7/10, and to last episode I can give 8/10 for the old truth: "If the tool thinking about her existion -- it's not a tool, but a human."
So, 8/10 on average: very good show due to graphic and story.

Crap episode, imo. At the start it was awesome, with lots of action, I said to myself "FINALLY A GOOD EPISODE!", but then, fan service strikes and fucks everything again. The fight suddenly finished, and Alice ran away with some allies that came from nowhere! This anime could be wonderfull... But somethings just fucked it up. Yep, fan service did.

You know now that you told me where is from, sounds rather familiar to a girl from Street Fighter games, I think it was from the 3rd one. Yup she reminds me of that girl exactly!

The gore. Something I loved about this series and its animators was its ability to show sadistic gore and violence without actually showing it. The panned out, changed color, well done shadows, silhouettes, or used a symbolic proxy to show what was happening without actually showing what was happening.

But when Fear jammed a spinning drill into the alice clone, we got very blatant censorship. I guess that'll be a BD extra, but I feel like it would have been nicer if they did what they had done for every other instance of twisted violence in the series
