I thought it was good, I didn't see it coming, which is always a plus.

I bawled like a little baby. I knew Terro(sp?) was going to die but I didn't know the village would be burned down. Well, at least he got to see everyone again(Elulu and them) and saw his wife and friends come take him to the afterlife.

Still bawled like a little baby.

I got to hand to Aruruu's VA, Sawashiro Miyuki. She makers Aruruu not sound like an annoying little kid. There's a hint of maturity in that voice and she really stood out to me in that scene.

What a great episode, and I'm really looking forward to the next one. So apparently Hakuoro's real name is Rak Shine, and he is a traitor/criminal, who is also married.

So, Kucca Kecca has a custom that people should wear those masks? Sounds fishy.

Traitor? I guess we'll find out about that

Hakuoro (or should I say Rakushain???!) finally shows some emotion.

Uh, whoa. An episode where Hakuoro's past finally starts catching up with him?! Awesome. I've been wanting to know more about him and his mysterious case!

However... this episode was so sad! I definitely, definitely did not see the destruction of Yamayura coming, or the death of everyone that lived there... I felt bad for Aruruu, and then Eruruu, too, for trying to be responsible. The grief obviously got to her too, though.

Looking forward to seeing where things will go from here...

My money is that this Kuccha Keccha or whatever they are called, are the US version in Utawarerumono, you know invading without a declaration of war (that, and minus the superpower status).

Shits getting serious now! I hope they don't give him a hard time just because of his past... xD

And another good character has died, that sucks, didn't see it coming to be honest. :(

Hy, finally something's happening!

The rebellion storyline was surprisingly dull and it blew two whole episodes on people sitting around doing nothing. It's about time things got in gear.

I knew the guy was dead and im guessing he didint want medical attention since he just wanted to be with his wife again.Im not going to lie I teared up when I saw him dieing and cross over and then the wake up scene omg.I cant believe they killed the whole villiage that is some brutal stuff.It seems we will now get some background on hakuoro.

Even knowing this was coming it was still not easy to take--once again they've adapted this section from the game exceedingly well and added even more feels through the animation. Don't make any assumptions about what has or hasn't happened or who Hakuoro is, as this really is a pretty complex story. We get our first sight of Touka as well, yet another strong female character in the game and the series.
Please don't feed the trolls!

I was not ready for this...
I cried so hard when Teoro was dying and his wife came and friends ;A;
Aruruu crying too, my heart can't take it T_T
Hakuoro finally shows anger, who wouldn't after what happened..
Hope those bastards from Kuccha Keccha get destroyed ;A;

Death scene was nicely done, can't say the same for the tactics they employed that got them completely surrounded.

The death of the village was so unexpected! I haven't seen a lot of death scenes being that unpredictable

Damn, rip Teoro :(

It's interesting to see Hakuoro show a sense of emotion in this episode. Looking forward to see how they handle his past here.
