I saw a subbed episode 4, but I don't see a fansub group name nor a website link x_x so it might be fake or a raw. so I didn't bother to download ^^;

OMG! Ouri learning about his father! I want subs on episode 4 and 5 already!!!! xD

Well, that version is actually Shinsen-Raws raw. But I did see a Chinese sub for Episode 4 there. -_-;
I don't think I could understand that...

Ouri is the opposite of a necrophiliac, isn't he? He attracts the dead people instead.

Yeah that could be but it's a good thing. It might save many troubles for Keisei!

Wow. It's fairly difficult to tell who knows who, and who's friend and who's foe.

(I mean you can probably guess pretty well, but it does do its fair share of twists.)

The animation dropped in this ep and there was quite a bit of fanservice too, but the episode was still good. The concept of having pairs of priests/shikabane hime, with the later having to kill 108 corpses to go to Heaven is not that great imo, but GAINAX is proving once again that there is no bad subject, just bad direction, and this series is actually far better than its premise, precisely because its direction and atmosphere are right.

well, certainly not as bad as some claim it to be...

in terms of plot, it actually did keep me hooked up for a while (i.e. who's the cat and what's wrong with the shikabane himes according to the "betrayer" priest....)

hopefully this will improve

This was the best episode so far, not good, not bad. Finally something interesting happened with the other (badly drawn at the end) Shikabane Hime appearing. People are still making speeches though, who writes this dialogue?

I'm going to be honest; only reason I'm watching this series is Shikabane Hime. So, three Shikabane Hime in this episode = me happy. But other than that, this series doesn't do anything to me.

I kinda expected more from this episode... I hate the fact that Makina does al that crap without Keisei. I liked the last episode since they where working together in that episode.

I expected a bit more emotion.. That car was evil but I think they should of saved that thing for something other then this episode.

It was good that we got to meat that other Shikabane and the traitor!

lol, so, all shikabane himes HAVE to be girls... not that i mind, lol.
well, this episode was pretty good.
i am glad hoshimura and ouri are kind of making progress and kind of befriending each other.
i am also glad that there is more backstory on the contractor priests and that stuff.
lol @ a shikabane car.
the new shikabane hime was pretty cute. for a moment i thought that she was normal, then i thought she was a corpse, then.... i just couldn't think of anything.
it was kinda obvious that the new teacher and the student were connected though.
Keisei's father doesn't seem too bad natured. his shikabane hime is also pretty nice.
i am wondering why the new shikabane hime wanted to drag ougi along with her to destroy the shikabane car.
lol @ hoshimura leaning to ouri, and ouri leaning to hoshimura, and the new shikabane hime thinking they had a relationship
the new guy looks interesting, the betrayer priest that is. interesting how the cat ran away.
i am liking the ending as time goes by.

what had me puzzled is that the new girl seemed willing to kill oori and the other shikabane hime. i thought they couldn't kill humans.

anyhow i really want to know who the cat is. for some reason this anime reminds me of dtb.

The overall animation is not too bad, seems a bit plain until it gets to the action.Though not great, I still like the fight scenes remind me of flcl, Gurren Lagann, R.O.D, to me at least, guess some people didn't like those as well? I do believe its the style. Anyways Sweet seeing another Hime too.

Patience, you will all find out in the future episode, that' all I am saying because I picked this series up and watched ahead in the non subbed versions.

And yet you still watch it. ;3

To be honest, this episode was one of the best eps so far, so I dunno how people can say it was bland. Though I think the whole show is generally bland as is.

This anime seems to have some issues. The art is not consistent and looks horrible at times. Characters look deformed sometimes. Also I think with the main plot they have they could have made a better anime with a better director. I started this anime and rated it 7/10 but it's getting closer to a 6/10. I'll continue watching it since it's a very short series and I love hearing Fujiwara Keiji's voice as Keisei.

Interesting episode.
Wow, a new transfer student is a Shikabane. I thinking that she has like 107 kills, so she might go to heaven if she kills that man. Interesting new information by that.
Getting exciting by the next episode can't wait.

Ahh so shikabane himes actually have a goal other than being corpses killing corpses. I wonder what happens if they get destroyed before reaching 108.

Kind of weird though how Makina didn't realize Itsuki's dead O__o

I really wanted to slap Ouri for even thinking of getting in the car with Yamagami. Hello? Common sense dictates you do not get into a car with a stranger much less let them drive without a licence >_>

I thought Yamagami was behind the car murders but I was surprised that she is also a shikabane hime. Not much action but we've gotten some interesting reveals this episode.
