At first I thought I was watching some kind of SoL/Romance anime but they were just acting by the way I loved the music played during assassination scene.
I loved this episode

I have a feeling that ice cream lady is going to be their downfall. Or a target.

damn...I'm seriously loving this so far. The soundtrack is especially good.
It's sad to see Zwei's transformation...so much so that it's even scaring Ein..

The pacing of this is really slow but somehow working really well.

Had a feeling the way they were acting had something to do with a mission. I doubt that's the last they'll see of that blond chick.

I like how the show is evolving. At first it bothered me that we don't know nothing about Ein's and Zwei's past, but now it all slowly makes sense...

Oh dear so "Ein" can still feel after all. Sounds like a romance will bloom eventually.

Was running in to kill the grandpa in the middle of the parking lot a good idea? NO. Were there more practical low profile ways? yes...

So from what I understand, Ein has always followed her orders to kill, throwing away her life. But now, Zwei has come into the picture and is the same as her. So now she is seeing herself in Zwei in front of her very eyes and she is scared of what Zwei has become, hence, she is afraid of what she has become.
Did I understand that right?

Good episode since it was actually nice to see Eins und Zwei on the job. Wouldn't mind more of that with maybe an overarching plot going on in the backround.

While the first episode was really rough around the edges, the show has slowly started taking shape into a more cohesive experience. This episode was pretty great; I loved how it showed a 'regular' Ein and Zwei and we got some more great characterization.

Fate/zero is my favorite anime of all time and I'm really looking forward to how Urobuchi is going to handle this story.

Great Episode, as others have said it was super cute to see another side to Ein even if she was faking it. That being said ever since the beginning you can kind of tell that there is a spark of humanity in Ein that is yearning to be expressed more due to her reaching out to pet Zwei's hair while he was unconscious in a prev episode.

Here the signs are more pronounced and are getting stronger since Ein is spending more time with Zwei. I wonder if he's the first person (outside of Scythemaster) who has had prolonged contact with Ein ever since she became an assassin.

Zwei himself is slowly becoming more and more proficient, his instincts taking on a level that is fast approaching Ein's own talent. I think seeing Zwei's transition from innocent bystander to killer is shaking up Ein due it being a reflection of her own situation. She's seeing him lose his humanity bit by bit, and I think it scares her because it brings up a fear she's harboring deep down about herself (Maybe whether or not she's human, is allowed to have feelings, etc)

For a second I thought Ein got a drastic personality change and became a genki girl. Ein looks sexy in the swimsuit too.
The blonde lady showing up twice obviously isn't a coincidence. Feels like she's on to them.

Another great episode.

I was confused at the start of the episode but i quick on picking up on whats going on.

Love is in the air between Zwei and Ein.
