| I went into this episode with a mindset to not take it to seriously, and I actually enjoyed it a bit more. This episode was pretty funny, Neko's antics and the robots never fail to make me laugh xD Neko was also pretty adorable in this episode compared to the other one's lol, I actually started liking her a lot more compared to earlier episode's. Anyways, looks like things might progress a bit more next episode? Hopefully? I'm kind of afraid of the next episode though, I afraid its going make up for the surprising lack of homo-vibes in this episode. |
 If you really want to fit in, just put Legend of the Galactic Heroes in your top 5 and have it be the only 10-rated anime in your list. |

Of course the only useful thing about the whole episode was the bloody shirt and it was right at the end. >.> The manga is actually quite good, why couldn't they transfer that to the anime. Manga has no Shiro and Neko, probably why it's good. The anime added its own protag and supporting character for said protag? Thats a pretty big shift lol |

| Argh... the plot is moving too slow. And, I feel like I was reading a visual novel here, you know, how Shiro search for his alibi from person to another. It was just annoying, like some kind of old RPG quests. Even it has BGM that sounds like in a game/VN. But, now I'm curious about how Shiro being the murderer (if he really is the murderer). I'm not going to drop this, at least for the next few episodes.. |
Waiting for next week anime gives me another reason to live. |
| For me,I think that it only have a 2 options: First: Split personality ( I think that he has a split personality where the other one is evil and that the silver king has had to do with this that's why he is stalking Shiro's every move ) Second: He lost his memories after that ( After the incident, he forgot what happened but since he is already attending school at that time so the possibility of losing his memories is kinda low ) So in the end, 90% is that he have a split personality that when he is in his evil side, he doesn't remember what he doing and I am sure that the Silver King has a big role in that This is just my theories or rather fanfic but: What if, Shiro has a twin older brother when he was a child and that they have the same power to be the next colorless king but because there is always only one king for a one throne, they need to fight to each other to see who is more fit and then an accident happened and the other one died but it's soul resides in Shiro's soul and takes control of him in a time and that's soul's of his brother is the one who killed Totsuka Tatara to make his brother suffer [ But still, that is my only guess ] ( I know it is nonsense ) ^^ |

| Interesting episode,Neko was cute in school uniform and that cliffhanger at the end. |
 |
| soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo wtf |
 |
| Nice anime even the plot progression is slow -_- LOL to Yata-chan at the end. "Huh?" |
 |
| i hope he really did the murder. that way, his character will be more interesting 3/5 |

| "Either Die as a Hero... or live long enough to see yourself becoming the villain..." |
| Another bad episode. Well, I think he has more of a split personality. |
| Hinting to a split personality? Perhaps. |
| ... Not sure but it seems like every episodes was constantly bad. There's no actual "plot" so far ... |
| While this wasn't a "good" episode, it was still much better than the previous three. They actually DID something PRODUCTIVE this episode. Although, now I'm curious. If he really is the killer, how was he able to get back to the school in time and how come he could recall all of the events that happened even though he was technically "killing some dude on a rooftop." I can't really tell if it's split personality or if there's someone deliberately out there trying to frame him. It'll be interesting to see it from that regard. I also thought the character interaction was much better in this episode. The school friends getting involved in this charade seemed to get things to flow better. I did chuckle quite a bit at Shiro's "wife jokes". |
| In my opinion i think Shirou has personality dissorder.... I have one question though .... didn't the corpse stink so many days in his wardrobe ? I like the ed song even more everz time :) |

| Episode 4/13 already, and the plot is only just beginning. Why do they waste so much time with this useless stuff? I think everything will get going in the next episode. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |

| At first, I thought it was Shiro's dual personality or Shiro's been controlled by someone that makes him a murderer. But, one thing that doesn't add up. At least he has a blazer to cover up the blood before meeting up with Kukuri at 12:30am, but how Shiro was able to shoot Tatara Totsuka and get back to campus within less than an hour? Unless Shiro has hidden power that can get back to campus in short time. |

| Woa, what a useless episode... -_- Also, what Wadoria said is not irrelevant. Even if it's just a bloody shirt, it would stink after a few days... |

| Split personality seems to be exciting to watch. I'm just wandering why so many people supports this anime? |

| I hope this anime gets a long run because I so far like the character development. It was a good episode with some funny lines. |
| This series really doesn't do anything for me. Seems like the characters are one dimensional, the plot is non-existent, and really a ton of time is wasted every episode on stuff that doesn't matter in the least. I hope it picks up soon because the only thing this has going for it right now is the high production values. |
| Was cool to see how he found that bloody shirt right after we all thought he was clear . |
 |
| I love the robots. xD |
 |
| Still wondering when we'll get some actual plot... |

| Can the pacing of this show be any worse? IF it were not for the fucking vacuum cleaners I probably would have dropped this by now. Come on plot! Please appear! |

There's no doubt in my mind that the action in this series will be something worthwhile, but excitement alone can't save an anime from a bad plot (although exceptions can be there, but I doubt that will be the case for this one). If I weren't a fanboy for good animation, I'd be bored of this anime too lol. |
kaykenner54 said: jxcy said: idk man I think we're just now getting to the good part. True, /more/ could have happened in the first four episodes but personally I think it's incorrect to say "nothing at all happens". I mean, it grabbed my attention before it was even released and its the first anime/mana that ever did that. I could see how one could think it could be better, but I don't get people who say it's disappointing This! I wish people weren't so judgy with K. It may not perfect, but it sure is better than some animes that have been released in the past. People are "judgy" will all kinds of anime's. Just watch, more people are bound to jump onto the 'hate' bandwagon. Personally, I think it's too early to make any broad claims like "this anime has not substance", we're 4 episodes in, give the anime a chance. There's clearly some plot in the works here. And if you don't see it, you're retarded. LOL. I actually found the episode quite interesting, not saying everyone has to like it. But still. |
| Meh liking it so far. Can be boring at times, but I'm laughing at some parts :P. Seems like something will happen next episode as well! |

| It is the best anime this season !! The bloody shirt found in his closet also gave me a chill and the picture where he staring at the hole while his coat in buttoned all over the top makes my instinct 99% that he is the killer [ Afterall, Shiro never buttoned his shirt and it is impossible that the Shiro in Kukuri's picture is fake because the real Shiro remember's that hole incident ] But I just wondering if Shiro is the real killer,then why he didn't remember it ( the possibility that after he see the hole while still wearing the bloody shirt [that is the real Shiro,right?] Then, how did he put the bloody shirt in his closet after that incident and still doesn't remember it] Or it can be based on his comment about the shirt (" No, It can't be...) [He knows all about it and disposed the shirt but he got shocked when he saw again the shirt that supposedly gone on his closet?] Sorry, I have many more theories but this is as far as I can go today ^^ I am really excited to episode 5 ( I really love anime's with many mystery, I always love to make theories ) |
| It's not a matter of talent. It's a matter of will |
| Bout time something finally happened... I think. |
| They could have done wonders with the premise. Instead we have naked nyan cat to pander to the male demographic and now BL to pander to the female demographic. I feel as if this show has as its only goal to stimulate one's genitals... Disappointed, disgusted and dropped. |
 |
| i think it's a good show and i've never thought it was slow at all |
| This show is pretty dumb. |

| Most laid back teacher ever also dat Neko! also so he did do it. |
| Anyone else get a kick at how apathetic the teacher was? He's like, sure, some dude with a sword and some random cat girl are totally on my roster... And that wife scene was pretty funny. I'm still curious as to how no one has questioned how Shiro's cat turned into a human, though. Everyone's gotten used to it, but the least they could do is wonder how exactly such a thing happened. ShoutaAzuma said: He's a king, so perhaps that gave him powers to do so. My guess is Neko's random turn into a human is a clue to his powers.Unless Shiro has hidden power that can get back to campus in short time. Erzaa said: The manga is based on/backstory of this Anime, so i don't think that would be possible unless they made an OVA out of it.The manga is actually quite good, why couldn't they transfer that to the anime. |
PrivateJoker1942 said: I swear if this show turns out to be yet another split-personality plot I'm dropping it so fast. The whole dissociative identity disorder / repressed memories plot line is so overused anymore. Come up with something original writers Im with you there I wont make my post long or anything like I did somewhere else but in all honesty if they go this SP route - No matter how much I love Neko she cant save this show - its going into the dropped section for me. |
| So yeah, I guess Shiro's pretty much labeled as a two-face now. I figured that would happen. I'm still curious as to how he got around to forgetting or forcefully making himself forget what he did. I'm also suspicious of Neko for some reason, no matter how cute she may be. |
| Lol the robots XD It seems that Shino did kill the guy but he doesn't remember it... Hmm, DID(Dissociative identity disorder) is what might happening to him but I don't know. |
| Hm... Okay I guess. The whole episode point was the last scene. |
