| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The animation is back to normal! I'm so glad. I really love this episode. We get to see more of Clear and hear him sing (yessss). The little fight between Koujaku and Noiz is nicely animated too. Mizuki disappeared. Tae-san, too. I can't wait for the next episode~ This episode is better than I expected. Really loving this adaptation! |
| OMG there's an episode this week?! But I still haven't seen 3 in good animation! Did it get subbed anywhere? Ah I thought they'd just reair episode 3 and we won't get 4! And it's more about Clear?! DOUBLE YAY #CantHelpFanboying |
 |
| Whew, the animation is a a lot better now lol. Oh and that scene with Mink just behind Aoba was so creepy LOL, AOBA JUST TURNED AROUND AND DIDN'T FREAK OUT OR ANYTHING JUST ASKED "WHERES MY GRAMS?" |
| yeah,they improved it this week...i am glad:3 |
| Animation back to normal, yaayyy! Oh snap that crazy popo from episode 1 is back. Didn't get a lot of screen time though. So Mink shows up? I don't know a lot of him or his route so I'll be looking forward to whatever type of person he is. |
 |
| Woah loved clear's scene! it was a really nice talk and they were cute. Felt bad for clear's grandfather.. And woah the series is way more serious now, but I still don't get what spirited away means >_> Is this show only 12 episodes? I sure hope it's more than that because the pacing seems really good and I would like this anime to finish the stories of the characters. Some nice OSTs here and there as well, Noiz vs Kouj was really nice. My favorite characters are Aoba Clear and Noiz, they're all really likable and have amazing design And the ending is awesome as usual :p I can't skip it |

According to the official site, the blu-ray box will only have 12 episodes + an OVA. (not enough dmmd for me, but at least there's the new game coming this October) |
| Ahh I am so happy with this anime now! The animation is far better, Virus and Trip look much better(: I loved the scene with Koujaku and Noiz fighting, and Mink!! Ahh finally Mink has arrived, I love him! ;w; |
[center] |
| Was so happy with the scene between Clear/Aoba! Clear is such a cutie, and his singing is beautiful <3 Really loved seeing all this scenes animated - the fight between Koujaku and Noiz, Virus and Trip (still hate them), and Mink's entrance...to be honest, I'm still not a huge fan of the anime, but I love seeing the game animated so it's worth it. Can't wait for the next episode! |
| As everyone else said, the animation is a lot better now, I'm really glad~ Scene with Clear was great, too bad that his voice isn't clear (lol), they made it "more realistic" by making it sound more like a gas mask... And I know that this has been since first episode but it just ruined a little bit mood to me in this episode. And I would be excited too about the coming game too but it's not gonna be yaoi, I heard ;__; 'cause it's only rated 15 and doesn't include that much smexy scenes, I guess |

Yeah, there is coming new dmmd-game in October (in Japan) called Dramatical Murder: Re:code or something and it's coming to PS VITA. |
| wtf is wrong with this anime, the conversation between clear and aoba about what happiness is gave me cancer oops dropped sorry not sorry |
| Oops, sorry about mistakes in previous comment, it's rated 15 and above NOT 13, thank god... sorry about that ^^U |
| Clear and Aoba's conversation was nice. Quite a philosophical discussion there. Members of Dry Juice have disappeared along their leader, Mizuki. O.o . Spirited Away, maybe? Koujaku is a hotheaded guy. Noiz was provoking him first though. Would've liked seeing their fight. Too bad, those cops interrupted them in the midway. Aoba and grandma are under attack! Who'll save them this time? :O Not bad. I wonder what was the purpose of the spam emails Aoba was continually receiving. That 2D game was pretty weird too. |
 |
| The Cleao feels came to me... Loved that the Jellyfish Song now has lyrics uvu |
| Came here to see if the animation was fixed before watching, glad to hear it is.. Will edit after I actually watch the video ;-P EDIT: Oh man, y'all were right. It definitely got better. It's not perfect or the best animation I've seen, but there were only a few derp faces instead of 30. Clears scene was cute (as expected.) Really dislike Mink so not too excited to see more of him, oh well. Wonder if they'll keep /that/ scene in. |

| This ep felt kinda slow to me. Was also really happy to notice the quality went up. They changed some things a little bit but as long as it helps the plot progress I'll be happy. Other than that I don't have much to say about this episode. We'll see how next week's ep goes. Looking forward to Mink goodness. |
| Glad it doesn't look like DERPYanimated Murder anymore! Clear is my favourite so far, I hope we'll get to see more of him in the future. |

[ note that I have not yet played or seen playthroughs of the visual novel yet ] Watching this episode made me question exactly what was going on with the animation in the previous. Well, it's a relief that the gorgeous art is back to normal! The first thing that struck me was, is Platinum Jail the actual translation for the centre that was created? It sounds like an incredibly ironic name, and I would imagine if that's the actual translation there might be reference to people thinking about how it might actually be a jail. I also noted that you would think in such a futuristic world, Aoba might have a nicer television...Oh, well, maybe that's just me being nit-picky and it doesn't really bother me that much. As for other technology, the emails from the kidnapped princess were eerie, and confusing. Does this have anything to do with the "murder" part of the name? I've heard that there isn't actually anything about people being murdered in this anime, and that it was just a ploy to attract people to it. Clear and Aoba's conversation was really nice, I did think there were some interesting musings formed there. As a character, Clear is adorable, but incredibly confusing. I hope we'll get to learn more about him- so far, I think he's one of the more interesting characters!  I just made the most inhuman noise. |

| The show is still a little bit scattered as to where the plot is going, but it seems we'll get plenty next week though. mmmmm the music during the brief fight scene. Just cant get enough of the OST |
~my list
| Jellyfish song! SO CUTE ahh Clear, you're too much. Virus is so frickin hot I can't get over it & YES THAT FIGHT SCENE I can't believe they actually did a good job animating it. Akushima got there too damn early. onoda said: Hopefully. I felt so bad in that scene. |
 |
| Forever cheering about more Clear. :) Watching Noiz and Koujaku arguing and fighting just has me going, oh you two get a room already. :P |
 |
| somewhat dissapointed that they changes aoba's ringtone =3= |
( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ |
| Clear seems like most interesting character so far, I really liked his scene with Aoba. Otherwise, this is still somewhat confusing to me... |
| OMG so next week Aoba is going to be tortured by Mink?! I CAN'T WAIT I CAN'T WAIT muahahahahaha. And glad the animation quality back to normal. |

| Ohhhhhhh... It dawned on me that this anime isn't going to be about that virtual game and instead it's going to be about Guy x Guy relationships o.o. Nothing wrong with that I'm just not into that kind of stuff. I guess I'll drop this. |
 |
| rape incoming... :3 |
| I was so close to dropping this anime, but episode 4 truly saved the day. I'm not watching episode 5 if they even attempt to imply the rape. The game was bad enough. |
| Apart from me fanboying over Clear x Aoba or Noiz X Aoba I still don't really get what spirited away means.. And Aoba still doesn't remember stuff from the past? Well hopefully we get answers :3 I'm really enjoying the anime but too bad it's just 12 episodes |
|
| Glad to see the animation's better than last week. So Mizuki has disappeared and it seems like the Morphine group is behind it ... or rather, that guy with the long hair. Not to mention Tae is gone as well ... hrm :S Gonna be tough for Aoba next episode ... Interesting talk with Clear (singing about jellyfish! :O) and the Noiz vs. Koujaku fight was interesting too (though super short lol). That spam email I thought was gonna be a bit more important but I guess not ... |
| *fangirls over hearing Clear sing* Also. Next episode possible trigger warning. hope they don't do THAT though. swaggahsaurus said: [ note that I have not yet played or seen playthroughs of the visual novel yet ] Watching this episode made me question exactly what was going on with the animation in the previous.

It sounds like an incredibly ironic name, and I would imagine if that's the actual translation there might be reference to people thinking about how it might actually be a jail. They say Platinum Jail in engrish many times in both the game and anime. it's not much of a translation, but Platinum Jail is the name of the not prison. swaggahsaurus said: I also noted that you would think in such a futuristic world, Aoba might have a nicer television...Oh, well, maybe that's just me being nit-picky and it doesn't really bother me that much.

I've heard that there isn't actually anything about people being murdered in this anime, and that it was just a ploy to attract people to it. i would like to point out Aoba also works in a shop that almost never has customers, besides those calls at the beginning. The more you pay attention to certain small things Aoba says the more you notice and realize...Aoba's poor (lol) As for the name of the game. 1. bad ends are nothing but GORE and rape o-o 2. there will technically be murder towards the end. 3. I think the writers wanted to be funny somehow and use the title in dialogue >_> ZoroZoldyck said: I still don't really get what spirited away means.. I believe Spirited away means what it says. Taken away without a trace and without anyone noticing. |

| Really love the moment with Aoba and Clear! For someone who has not played the game(I'm assuming) it's still a bit confusing for me, but I'm getting the hang of it! Couldn't help but to think he was a bit of an airhead at the end scene though XP |
| The 2002 Tokyo Mew Mew adaptation is not as great as you remember it being. |
| Hope to see clear's face one day |
| I love love love to hear the comments and thoughts about the people who haven't played the game! (: It's nice to know people are enjoying it because even though it was a BL game, it has such a great story overall as well as each character is interesting and unique. I hope the anime can do their stories justice~ c: |

XD It would probably take months for them to get it English subbed though... I must practice Japanese! But the episode was amazing the animation was on point and the story is going at an extremely good pace, it's not too rushed, but I wonder will they keep the yaoi in and will they have the true route or a combined route? lol :D |
haineko123 said: somewhat dissapointed that they changes aoba's ringtone =3= Me too I was hoping for that adorable ringtone XDD |
| No more complaints about the animation? Perfect. For those that were doubting that animation studios can derp and send out beta episodes from time to time (hoping back to episode 3 here for a moment), I was looking to download Black Bullet, and apparently one of the episodes was sent out in beta format as well, though the goof up only happened with one TV station. All the other stations that received the episode got the proper completed version. That was just last season, and a totally different animation company. Proof that mistakes happen right there. OrchidStarfire said: haineko123 said: somewhat dissapointed that they changes aoba's ringtone =3= Me too I was hoping for that adorable ringtone XDD Yeah. I miss the original ringtone. The new one kinda sucks, honestly. GOATBED, wat r u doing? :( BTW, Aoba's in-game ringtone is a 16-bit version of AI Catch (the game's opening theme, for those who don't know). 16-bit AI Catch is way better then... whatever ringtone they've shoved on poor Aoba now. |
| Sigh, I really want Clear to take off his mask, but man there in Mink's place now. -Rolls away- |

It's coming out on October 30 this year but it's only for PS Vita. It'll be called DRAMAtical Murder re:code. |

Poking around the site, I don't think re:code is actually a new game. It looks like it's just a re-release of the first game, maybe with a little bit more content. For those who doubt, look at the story page on the site and the character profile images. All first game stuff. And anyway, DMMd wouldn't be the first VN to get ported all over the place. While I would like to play it just for the chance of extra content, I would likely have to get a Japanese PSVita because of region locking, and it's not worth it for a single game. |
| WAAY better than I expected. Now we are talking, a nice adaptation with good pace and animation. Not bad at all! |
 |
| GRAMMA WAT Y DOIN lol da lil fight AND WHAT'S HAPPENING |
| If this is really just 12 episodes, I should have seen some semblance of a plot here- but I've yet to detect even the hint of one. So far all I've seen is the eye candy for the yaoi fans, which is cool if that's what you're into/after, but nothing here to keep me interested. Dropped. |
| Odds are I'm not going to find my way back to a thread after my first post, it happens on occasion but not often. So, if I say something that offends you and you feel the need to force your opinion on me because obviously everyone should have your opinion or none at all, feel free to post it in the thread that I'll probably never see again. However, if you are interested in intelligent discourse, feel free to message me. |
| Omg the end~ I fangirled a bit too much PinkPetals said: I wonder how "that" is going to work out ^^. huehueh I doubt they will include it but we'll see |
