| This episode was awesome, much much better than the first one. Been a while since I thought that the villain was cool in his own way. I am so loving the ED. |
 |
| Wow! Massive change from the first episode! That moment when Rentaro realizes what his farewell present is...and then it starts leaking out. *sweatdrop* But still, that discrimination. What did the Cursed Children ever do to them??? Except being exceptionally loli? Those memories between Rentarou and Enju almost brought tears to my eyes. :.) I still think Kisara-san is a better character, but it was still cute. :3 Definitely seeing what the next episode brings me! |
| I don't really understand why the society would be stupid enough to hate them that much. Though still, great episode. |
 |
| One of my favorite shows this season although I gotta say this will gonna be depressing to watch along with Gokukoku no Brynhildr. |

| Well this got dark fast, now I got kinda kinda interested of what will happen next. It was kinda hard to see the other girl getting shot, luckily Rentarou saved her, hope we see her again. Can't wait for next episode. |
 |
| I was sad when this episode ended, now I'll have to wait one week for more :\ Interesting stuff happened. Discrimination against cursed children, that sounds familiar but I don't exactly remember where I saw this before. Still, it's not a bad idea atm. Great episode overall 4/5. Liking the OP, second favorite from this season after Knights of Sidonia's OP. This and Mahouka are the two shows I'll be most hyped for in the coming weeks. |
 |
| For some reason I'm really getting into this more than I should when I look at it on paper. But who cares, I'll just enjoy the loli fighting system and the bad guy that vaguely reminds me of Hisoka for as long as I can. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| And ofc. It only gets angstier... |
 |
| Got some questions: what is the relationship between initiators and promoters? Do they require each other for some abilities or maybe the enhance each other's abilities? Does Enju need Rentarou to use her skills? Why didn't the Cursed Child fight back? She's the same as Enju, right? If she can survive multiple gunshots, to the head even, then she clearly has the superhuman powers. Why didn't she use them? |

Well, the initiators seem to have classes - "rabbit" for Enju with her flying kicks, "mantis" for the masked man's daughter with the knives - so maybe the fact that she survived multiple headshots means she's a tank and not a dps class, and so doesn't have the offensive power to just straight-up murder the po-pos. They also said that she almost killed the guard. My guess is she's too weak due to not eating and harsh life conditions and can't really fight. Honestly, Enju lives in a house and eats food everyday. That other one had to steal food to survive. |

| Kaji Yuki needs to stop SHOUTING. Goddamn. This show is terrible. Was going to wait for an episode count to see if I could stick around for 1-cour but yikes. wallflowr said: Y lolis tho because they won't be able to sell them disks if it wasn't lolis |
| more interesting episode than the previous one, but it still felt a little bit rushed.. |
| Saying that initiators are tools sure wasn't a nice thing to say, good job for reacting Rentaro! To learn that Kagetane was human was rather surprising, I was sure he was a bug that looks like a human lol. The policmen deserved to be tortured and killed for what they did to that girl honestly. I guess Kagetane made a point about the Tokyo Area being wrong. Although Rentaro's choice to refuse joining up forces with him in exchange for the money and w/e else was the right thing to do. Poor Enju ran away after everyone at her school learned from a rumor that she was one of the cursed children T.T |

| I liked the way the anime is taking! The discrimination against the cursed children is something that may have a very good emotional development at the characters, such as Rentaro. |

| I think this episode wanted to build up the relationship between Rentarou and Enjiu , more than progress with the story. Once again...the bad guy has about the same principles as the main character but different ways to show them. Well...I'm curious to see what Kagetane wants to do with the Seven Stars...I don't think he really wants to destroy the monoliths anyway... |
| if the coming episodes will be as good as this one I might just give this anime a 10! even tho this is just the 2nd episode I still got the feels, not many animes have succeeded with that on my part. I don't felt this was so rushed actually, all that happend was that we got to know what is going on in their society with the cursed children and that they need to find a suitcase, not so rushed now is it? come on people if you want to see an "not rushed" serie just go and watch Naruto or One piece that have around 600 episodes each, I know cause I've seen all episodes of both thoose series as of this date I'm typing this comment. |

| beautiful ED song |
( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ |
| I hope it only gets better from here. Better than the first episode for sure. |
| Well that was a sad ending. I wonder when they will become partners again. Great episode!!! |
 |
| Better than the first episode, that's for sure. |
| This should've been the first episode, much better than the previous one. Seems like it'll be a bit darker/more serious than I thought it would be. The art style is a bit too soft if they're going with the dark undertones in the story but it's a nice surpsise, it won't be another "action-oh-no-just-useless-fillerish-episodes-with-sudden-random-fights" anime :) Looking forward to next episode, hopefully there'll be some action in it and perhaps show the girl Rentaro brought to that doctor. |
| Getting hyped of this anime more and over and over. Can't wait for next one. |
| I love the villain so far. So creepy ._. Good ep though |
 |
| I wish they portrayed the scene where the cops shot the infected child for stealing. The way the showed that in the manga was so much more dark than the way it was shown in this episode. I also wish the anime was more dark, as dark as the manga. There's not enough discrimination towards the cursed children, THERE ARE NO FEELS! Okay, there's feels between Rentarou and Enju, that I can live with. Overall, fairly decent episode. Not sure but I think it's the artstyle that keeps this anime from getting too dark, which pisses me off!!! I like it though. |
| 06:08 nope, you're Kiritsugu 10:24 dat chibi 19:05 dat pedokuma 7.5/10 for this episode. |
| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| *sniffs* Enju should come back now to Rentaro. Its interesting how dark this episode is aaand how this two partners will be more baddass as the episode go by. But yeah, I find Rentaro baddass in the pointing-gun scene. Heck. |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |

|
| This episode was badass, but there is something off that does need to get addressed in the future and that would be the main villain stance on having humanity die out and a new improved type of humanity rise. In the first episode they said that only the cursed children are girls so how would the cursed children be able to reproduce if there is no sperm. They would die out too. |
  |
| Could you elaborate on how the cursed children would die out? |
| WOW .. this episode was much better than the first one that's all i have to say! |
 |
skudoops said: UsaraDark said: Could you elaborate on how the cursed children would die out? I hope you aren't being serious. I mean, who said the cursed children (adults) could interbreed with the human race? Who said they were they're own species. They're part human too. |

Your missing the point that the main villain wants all the normal humans to die out, meaning there would be no males to breed with. |
|
| Love the OP and ED. too good. More cursed children huh.. Can't stand how everyone is treating them. Must have been a huge blow to Enju too since she can't be treated like a normal child. Flashback of Rentaro and Enju was too cute. Hurry go back to him Enju!!! |
| That was a surprisingly good episode, I wasn't very sold after the first episode, but I have to admit the ending got me. |
 |
| kagatane's character is dope. (his mask is cool too) litte ojou-chan is cute at the end |
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy." |
| Too many loli, too many ... Anyway Kagetane is fucking awesome, I hope he won't disappoint me as villain. |
 |
| Better than first episode.... Plot seems to be Dark, Bloody and loli..... 3.5/5 |
 |
| It's really starting to pick up, now that Enju is missing and Kagetane is now a serious threat. Because of what happened to that Cursed Child I'm starting to care more about Enju and the other children. I hope to see more. |
| w-wow... Can the main dude and the masked dude PLEASE TEAM UP? That would be so badass. The villian finally winning, even though he's hardly a villian. Someone let me know if that doesn't happen so I can be disappointed now and not later. This anime is dark, sad, funny at times, deep, meaningful, and just so good. it's really taking a stab at the current worlds justice system and it's just so great. |
  |
| This episode was great, even better than first one. Masked guy is really suspicious... And these police officers, damn it, i wanted to kill them so much :| Can't wait for next episode, these series is my pick up of this season. |
| Good episode as the first one. I think it'll be the top anime of this season, for me <3 Also amazing OP, not in Fripside's style, something new =P |

| The worst part about this episode is that I have to wait whole week to get the next one. It was great none the less. I especially loved the revelations. |
