| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Hmm it was pretty slow but next episode will be better. Just flashbacks and Shinkurou having a hard time deciding on what to do. |
     |
| I thought it was pretty good. We're getting to the end, I wonder whats gonna happen. O_O |
     |
| That conversation between Shinkurou and Yayoi in the park tore me to shreds. It was just so damn good. |

| Getting emotional here... loving this build up episode as I hold my breath during that convo. |
 |
| wow, that wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. In fact. I thoght it was great. Wasn't very emo, and the dialouge was still amazing. It definitely got me pumped up for the next episode. |
 |
| Pretty good episode. As slow as it was, I wasn't bored at all. I'm really just disappointed that this'll be over so soon.. only two left. |
| Wasn't as emo as I expected it to be. That hug at the end was hilarious ((: |

| Good build up for the finale. Only two episodes left T_T |

| I'm amazed at how adult this show is, it's almost too good to be compared with other animes. The themes and dialogues are amazingly mature and realistic, and I don't even speak about the character psychology and development, it's just... better ? |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| Awesome episode, the conversations and character development in this anime are so good. I really liked it, I'm looking forward to Shinkurou and Yayoi getting Murasaki back. Her brother needs to die. |

| Pretty good episode, we got a nice build up for the events that are going to happen. Really looking forward to the final 2 episodes, though I'll definitely miss this show. |
| good ep. |
| Livestream: twitch.tv/imoogle |
| Like usual with this show, some amazing and emotional dialogue. I think that's definitely one of the huge reasons I love it. Even when there isn't much going on, the dialogue really hits home with you. Good episode. Kurenai needed to wollow in misery before he could find his resolve to invade the Kuhouin residence. Should be a good two final episodes next. |
| Though a slower eps, I was not bored and it wasn't too depressing of an eps either. So a good eps as usal. Next eps looks like its going to be great... I hope the brother dies... I hope the whole family dies out (except Murasaki of course)... inbreeding bastards... |
| The next 2 episodes are going to be epic. Going to be sad when it's over though :(. |
 |
| I think the character interaction and development was really great in this episode. Yayoi's past also allows me to speculate a little more on the upcoming fight between her and the mysterious woman the Kuhoins hired. Maybe the thing that I find hard to accept is the fact that they are going to be fighting against some tough odds even with their fighting skills Kurenai keeps pretty realistically to life so I don't know what could happen its anyone's guess. |
 |
| 2 more episodes left, I kinda start missing the residents in that apartment lol. Hope the action scenes for the coming episodes won't be disappointing. |
 |
| This was a good one. Well like all though Shinkurou will get Murasaki back! Next episode I hope he kicks all of the Kuhouins asses! Did you guys see how pervert that brother touched Murasaki? I really want to get this guys ass! What I mean by this is that he just made himself a lot more incestuous with the way he was with Murasaki. I noticed his smirk also. |
 |
| Great episode. As it's been said, the dialogue is just amazing, and that makes even a slow episode like this very good. I'm looking forward to the final 2 episodes, hopefully there will be some great action. |

| does anyone else think every single character in this anime has this "cool" I dun care about life attitude, the story is really good but the way every single character speaks is making the episodes a little annoying for me and that song they played through out the whole episode doesn't help. |

     |
| Good episode. Next, we'll finally see Shinkrou kick some ass (well I hope so !) Only 2 episodes left, it's way too short ;__; |
  |
| Following the normal anime route, He even "trained" with that one chick for all 30 seconds. I think thats more than enough for him to kick the kouhoins asses. It wasnt as bad as episode 9, but not enough murasaki. ...i smell a loli reap next episode *_* |
  "What happens when we die?" I know that the ones who love us will miss us. |
| somehow i dont think this one will end nicely... this ep got kind a cheesey at the end...but it was good. oh well two more epps... |
| I loved this episode, even though all the snappy moments with Murasaki were missing. I honestly liked Shinkurou a lot this time around, and I'm so excited for the next two episodes. Big finale, here we come! |
     |
| this episode was like the calming before the storm. I expect to see some crazy fighting now. |

| Good episode, dialogue was great as usual. I hope Shinkurou whips out the bone sword on these perverts next episode. |
| I didn't think this episode was slow at all. Loved how you kind of see just how much of a role Tamaki and Yamie play in this show. |

Iriya said: Loved how you kind of see just how much of a role Tamaki and Yamie play in this show. Yeah they really are like family. I hope Shinkurou will not disappoint in the coming eps. Sad to see it ending :( |
| Great episode and good dialogue. This seres really grown on me. I'm looking forward to Shinkurou and Yayoi getting Murasaki back |
| Nice ep, fits to the series previous episodes. The question is, how will they finish it. I think a 'Shinkuurou goes in and kick ass'-like shounen type ending would crush the values of the show, and if you look back, there aren't many fighting scenes in the show, so a big fight as the climax wouldn't fit the series at all. However a sad ending is something i do not want. I hope they can make it well. |

However a sad ending is something i do not want. I hope they can make it well. yeah that's what im thinking of also. obviously, taking the kuhouins down is a pretty impossible task for just 3 people(especially when 2 of those 3 have been beaten up by 1 girl alone) who knows how many other people like that evil lady are in the kuhouin estate -__- but a tragic ending would then make us all wish otherwise -_- god i need to see the ending nao! 3 possible endings: -_- well those are just my guesses as of now..hopefully all these are wrong and they do a surprise twist that makes each of us go WTF?! |
 |
| Yeah, I said it in the previous thread, but I really don't see a happy ending coming out of this. Maybe a bittersweet ending which could be considered good, but certainly not a 100% happy one. |
| If it ends in Chinatown with Murasaki walking away from Kurenai, and into her father's car, I'll take back everything I said about this anime and give it a score of 10. |
"I'm starting to think mal is run by Xinil generating electricity on a bicycle." - idklol |
| A good episode that tells how much they miss each other. Although nothing really happened, this episode tells us of their feelings and how Murasaki wishes to be free and that Shikurou's life hasnt been normal since. Glad Shikurou finally resolved to kick some ass! |

 |
| This episode was great. A lot of good conversations going on throughout the whole episode. |
| It's funny how I keep reading all this praise for this show and, sure, the story is adult and everything, but I just don't see what everyone else sees in this show. |

| I don't know about you , but i feel like i've seen something like this before.Too generic , this show is nothing special , it is all predictable and somehow stupid. |
| Hoho,what do we have here? One more pathetic and ubah depressed shinji-ikari-like character.My inner self just starts raging everytime one of those appears in my anime. |

Some beautiful dialogue and the character interactions are stunningly good. This and this. The dialogue was indeed fantastic! Very, very well written. I'm definitely glad that Shinkurou decided to go after Murasaki... Murasaki's "family" is so freaking messed up, ugh. |
| Again, a well-executed version of well-worn plotting. An episode of downtime after a defeat before gaining a second wind is very common indeed, but casting Shinkurou's reaction as "accepting defeat" instead of simply moping made it somewhat different. Shinkurou and Benika's exchange was a genuine argument, too, rather than the hero just voicing his determination to a sounding board. The affectionate send-off from the comic relief characters was quite well-done, too. |
| Pretty decent episode, but the only reason this stuff happened in the first place was really stupid. Also, the main char is still annoying as of last episode and hasn't improved all that much. |
 |
| I'm surprised it took Kurenai the whole episode to realize that he can't just forget about Murasaki. I thought for sure that he would immediately go after her. Next episode should be interesting. Also.. I think Kurenai and Yayoi would make a really good couple xD I wish there had been romantic development between those two. & I freaking love that hugging scene with Tamaki and Yamie, really made me smile. |
 |
| That episode got me pretty hyped for this battle. Better be good! >:( |
