| Personally this is an incredibly short run series. So with all the bad comments it's getting I figured I'd watch past one eps.... I have to say this by far was my FAVORITE eps. I hope it continues from there. |

Nonon_Jakuzure said: I don't get why people think this episode was the best of the five as every episode of this trainwreck have been horrible. The episode was nowhere near creepy, but disturbing. 1/10 so far. I can't talk for everyone else, but I felt like there was a bit more of a story here than in the other eps. I liked it. |

SnackaryBinx said: KingYoshi said: Does anyone know what chapter of the manga this was from? So far every episode has been in line with the manga until this episode. Beginning-Mid Volume 3 Thanks for pointing this out, but damn, so far DEEN had been 'faithfully' following episode 1-4 through manga chapter 1-4 (volume 1 has 7 chapters), all of a sudden ep. 5 is a chapter of vol. 3, the lack of continuity is really disturbing, hopefully they provide some explanation in the future about the mother thingy. |
 |
| Wow, so Yume was already a monster even before she was born. Now, this is interesting. I can't blame her mom that she was paranoid and - WAIT WHAT IT'S OVER?! I have to admit this is the best episode so far. The anime is still bad though |
| pew pew pew |
| poor mother tsk, maji hiku wa ~_~ |
 |
| I understand nothing |
| Is a better episode but was any of this actually in the manga? |
 |
| Yume's eyes 0_____0 |
| Ugh, this was just deranged and gross D: At least it's short and we know some more about Yume's past now |
| easily the best episode so far pretty freaking creepy but still decent though that's not saying a lot i guess haha yume eating that bird was NASTY ugh ;_; |
| okay just as confused as everybody else, if she had it from a baby what was the point in the first few episodes with the butterflies being the one that infected her?! good job this anime is only a few mins long cos that just genuinely felt like a waste of time, and i rarely feel that |
| Best episode so far, but i can't get over the fact that she tried to kill a baby. Demon or not, you don't kill a baby. |
| enjoyable episode. i was laughing so hard when baby Yume was glaring at her mom. |
 |
| Definitely one of the better episodes, although it feels like something is missing. Hopefully the next episode will shine more parts on how Yume is a monster (with the exception of her teeth) and was born like that. Also quite disturbing how she tries to eat/suck that cloth filled with blood and the other part with being cut and attempt murdered by her mother. I really wish this series episodes were longer ._. |
KingYoshi said: Does anyone know what chapter of the manga this was from? So far every episode has been in line with the manga until this episode. Ha I think it's funny that the story from the manga sucks but when they show something not from the manga, it's actually good. Hopefully Pupa gets better and better. |
| I don't think she was really infected as a baby at all. That's why the mother is in the hospital at the end and why the brother was asking why she was being mean to his sister. Seems to me like the mother had PND and was hurting the baby because of it. |
| The first two episodes were complete shit, the third only half a turd, and the foruth and the fifth were okay i guess |
| Woah, that was messed up. I don't really understand the thing about Yume having been born different when it was shown she didn't get infected until later though. Although I guess that might explain why her brother had a messed up face before this all even started. |
 |
| This is the best episode so far by far. I don't really remember this scene in the manga though? Is this a scene that hasn't been translated yet? |

  |
| Best episode so far. |
 |
| So Yuma was a monster before she was even born, I believe it. Great episode!!! |
 |
| WoW, this was actually a decent episode I have to rise the score up. From 1 to 2! |

| Interesting. Felt rushed as always |
 |
| Looks like they are slowly explaining things. Very slowly. |
 |
| I guess this was the best episode yet! |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| I can't shake of the feeling that despite the episodes being a few minutes long, this anime is wasting my time. |

| anime with cute girls is my thing. |
| I guess they had time for a flashback. . |
 |
| It doesn't make sense and I'm confused as fuck... making a mystery anime a 4minute episode every week (you should subtract the time for OP and ED also) is just pure.... genius?.. fuck |
 |
| Sigh I am so sick of seeing all these hate comments, don't just jump into the bandwagon like the no brainers. It was a good episode, it was creepy, and the mother's mental breakdown. I wonder why did she think of Yume as a monster. Is the father actually abusive? Or what? |

| Wait what people actually think this episode is good non-ironically? I thought it was the worst one (also the most entertaining one). |
| The careful and intricate lead up to the mother's masochistic nature was flawless and masterfully executed. Had to fight back the tears, mainly because a lovely veteran seiyuu like Noto Mamiko was wasted on this series. |
 |
| Intense... |
 |
| like all the other's........this episode sucked, on the bright side, this episode didn't suck quite as hard! ^^ |
| Interesting... Me likey (: |
 |
| That was creepy, it did look like a red butterfly on the floor. But I thought she was only just turned into a monster now. Unless maybe Yume is just thinking maybe that to justify why her mother let her father hit her or something. I dunno. But from the 5 chapters of the manga I read that didn't happen, maybe it does later but it doesn't seem like something that would be in it. She was a creepy baby though, I was kinda terrified. |
 |
| This episode was hilarious. Stoner baby. |
