This anime seems to be getting more interesting by each week, I hope it stays that way =P
I still wonder what kind of role Amanda's brother will play.

Pretty average ep overall. Action sequences were great nonetheless. Amalgan design this episode was, well, laughable.

Blassreiter started with some problems but it's been gradually getting better, imo.

@ kisami: Why watch RAWs when you can watch it subbed in YouTube? Plus, the quality is average-good and the translations are pretty good.

Fansubs? No one (that I know about) has picked ToD or Blassreiter to sub, much because Gonzo and BoshTV did the translation themselves. You haven't got much of a choice to watch either of those two ones.

Loving it! I feel quite sorry for Malek. I wonder how it's going to work out for him.

Trust me, you can watch most of the subbed versions in Youtube in High Quality. Or you can look at Crunchyroll for h.264 streaming versions.

I loved that Amanda's little brother(Malek?) took care of Joseph. All I'm waiting for now is to see what kind of role he will get in the series.

I will have to agree with this statement. Most of the characters were built up enough to the point were I can actually care for them some. It is also interesting to see how all the characters are tying in with each other.

I can't see it that well thanks to the quality but I still don't like the CG demons. To me they look out of place and whack but then again I wasn't the biggest fan of CG like this in the first place.

Either way I think I will stick with this show for now.

If we got 80% or higher let me know! :)

At first I didn't expect Gerd to go crazy on the heli too but I guess it fitted well, I was surprised.

The action is great! I love it.
And good thing that the little brother didn't accept that game from his so-called friend. People like him are assholes, they can't be trusted. I would've thrown the game and and kicked him in his nuts.

This episode to me is pretty meh, I personally think that they didn't do a good job at highlighting Gerd's emotion or anger toward Jil. Sure he tried to kill her before, but it's been like.. what, a few days? If they didn't show that Gerd raced with the other guy, then maybe it would make some sense, but.. I don't know, I just thought that the last part of the episode didn't make much sense, I actually thought that he went there to stop her, or maybe kill her if necessary, never would have thought he would attack civilians too.

I like where this is going, but I don't like how they are doing it.
