| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- i think this episode was good! the emphasizing of the relationship between watanuki & doumeki is always a plus point XD. especially when doumeki tried to look for the solution to get back watanuki's eye and watanuki prepared food for him. it was damn funny when he lied that they were leftovers. lolx ^ ^ |
 |
| Great episode, that makes the second in a row, and my expectations are rising for this show, I liked the first season too but I think that kei is a big improvement thanks to a less episodic yet darker scenario. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| another great episode ^^ |
    |
| lol watanuki's attitude is far too random but its always to the point and where it needs to be. even when hes being stupid, it serves its purpose. Yuko can be sooo sexy though. that outfit is just too hot. even for an animated character. i think its about time they explained watanuki's place and his purpose. hes supose to be some important famous person in the "spirit" world or whatever but they never say why. |
kisami said: Yuko can be sooo sexy though. that outfit is just too hot. even for an animated character. Indeed, Yuko was so hot this episode, in all her outfits (I personally go for her street clothes, probably because its more of a rarity). Well, these first few episodes have been going as planned, nothing really different from the manga that I can recall (but I really wasn't paying that much attention for the details). |
 |
| Another awesome episode. The Doumeki/Watanuki interaction is great, and I love how protective the Karasutengu are over the Vestal Sprite. |
     |
| mmmmmmmmmmm yuko! |
 |
| Is it too much to hope that Watanuki dies and Yuuko becomes the main character of this series? ^^ Interesting, though, after watching Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, I noticed that the Vestal Sprite is actually a "Zashiki Warashi" - I was kind of confused why they were drawing from greek mythology in the first series, but now it makes a lot more sense. |

I was getting confused because in the actual manga they just refer to it as a Zashiki Warashi. Ah well. Great episode, I'm really enjoying this arc. I wonder what this lesson that Watanuki needs to learn is and what he's going to do about his eye... Doumeki and Watanuki moments! I'm loving it. |

kisami said: Don't hold your breath :S The manga hasn't even explained that yet. When we find that out, I think the series will be over.i think its about time they explained watanuki's place and his purpose. hes supose to be some important famous person in the "spirit" world or whatever but they never say why. LolitaDecay said: Me as well.I was getting confused because in the actual manga they just refer to it as a Zashiki Warashi. Ah well. I'd forgotten about the book worm! I think they're doing a fantastic job with this one. Looking forward to next ep :D Edit: Apparently I can't quote correctly...sorry kisami |

| Watanuki is just tsundere when it comes to Doumeki. Everybody sees it, that's why they tease him. Always raging at his face, but then making him food and looking out for him (saved him several times now)... very stereotypical tsundere behaviour. |
| xxxhoic:Kei placed slightly more emphasis on the comedy while still maintaining the supernatural feel. No complain from me about that though. I especially liked that Code Geass reference Watanuki made in the earlier scene. Heck he even sounded like Zero in the later half of the refence/parody both are voiced by the same seiyu) Wacthing Watanuki being tsundere was fun too. |
kisami said: i think its about time they explained watanuki's place and his purpose. hes supose to be some important famous person in the "spirit" world or whatever but they never say why. not gonna happen any time soon (we'd all love to know) another great episode (((: though watanuki's behavior is a little exaggerated in anime... i like emo watanuki way more than overly cheery watanuki well he'll get emo soon enough preview for next epi looks great that are some of my favorite manga chapters |

| I liked this episode better than the first one for this season. No you yaoi fangirls, Watanuki and Doumeki is not going to happen romanticly no matter how much you want it lol I wonder if Himawari is like evil or some really bad luck thing or whatever, probably is. I never liked her much anyway, she is such a ditz. That cat girl is pretty cute X3 And yeah the vestal sprite is cute too and will show up next episode obviously, yay ^^ cant wait, well ok I can wait but if its longer than a week I will be pissed a little lol XD |

| I just finished watching this episode and I rather enjoyed it! Like most, I really like the camaraderie between Doumeki and Watanuki – it's rather funny watching funny man Watanuki against straight man Doumeki. While the bookworm was an interesting watch to see animated, I am far more excited for next episode, I'm really looking forward to seeing the Zashiki-warashi. =) Kineta said: Totally agree! I would like to know too! The suspense is killing me!kisami said: Don't hold your breath :S The manga hasn't even explained that yet. When we find that out, I think the series will be over.i think its about time they explained watanuki's place and his purpose. hes supose to be some important famous person in the "spirit" world or whatever but they never say why. traed said: If the opening sequence is any indication, you will eventually find out what Himawari truly is. =PI wonder if Himawari is like evil or some really bad luck thing or whatever, probably is. I never liked her much anyway, she is such a ditz. |

| FINALLY got time to watch the second episode. And as I expected, it was very enjoyable. This arc is definitely the best one in HOLIC so far. |
| Woaaaaah.... duude.... beginning of episode when Watanuki-"sama" went to visit Doumeki... is it just me... or was that a total Tamaki (Ouran High School Host Club) move?? o_o YAY!! I love Shinsen subs!!! (watched the first one with subs by oher peoples.... biiig difference) WOAH!!! 3 episode arc!!! New xxxHolic record! Poor Zashiki-Warashi... I think I can guess what she did... T___T I can't wait to see how this arc will end. *on edge of seat* O_____O!!! Oh and I hope they eventually tell us WTH Himawari actually is... I was waiting for that all first season! ;_; |
     Sig WILL change soon~ |

 |
| I wonder why, if Yuuko knows that Himawari is evil or such, she would let Watanuke hang out with her all the time.. ...then again, she does have this 'People can wish for strange things, even things that will harm them" , and she grants even some of those wishes too is the implication. |

| I love this arc. I loved XXXHolic so much, but I'm actually thinking XXXHolic Kei is an even better series so far. I, too, cannot wait to discover the truth about Himawari. It should be coming up soon, I think.. |

Agreed :3 But anyway, cool episode, and I also see the bonds between episodes became stronger in Kei. |
| Yay, 3 episode arc ^^ Pretty good arc (so far). Let's go watch the conclusion |
     |
| Who exactly is Himawari-chan~? Always thought something was up with her... Looks like all 13 episodes or at least most of it is about the eye |
| Whoa this was good. Watameki FTW ^_^ love seeing those 2 together~ OI. Wonder what's the real deal with Himawari-chan... Can't wait to find out more abt his eye! RANDOM GOLDFISH IS RANDOM |
 |
| Nice episode.This series getting better and better.Wondering what will happen next~ |
    |
| ALl this mystery around Himawari is killing me. |
 |
| Another great episode really nice that there's a vast story in this season! Lets see what's next! |
 |
| An even better episode and even more questions come to light. What is Himawari really? How was this lady's capture Watanuki's fault and what is it Yuuko wants him to learn? Not everything can be fixed or something? We need more anime like this. |
 |
| I think the outfits of Yuuko so beautiful. |
 |
SatoTM said: The Catgirl is Cute :3 Rawrr~ indeed >///< The cat girl is actually wearing a uniform from the high school in Ukishima in Blood-C. Pretty strange since that high school wouldn't be founded untill at least a decade or so after xxxHolic Kei. |

| Another Nice Episode. Loving this season so far. |
 |
| Liking the longer arcs this season. Adds more depth to the plot imo |
