Not bad. The first one was plain, this one was better. It's pretty clear who is who though and everything happens really fast.

I think that this is the case too. Where Kujo protected Victorique from the arrow in the hallway, that girl looked like she intended to do sth.. and then when the actor called back at them she looked a little.. annyoed maybe?

Kujo.. so condescending... Victoria is a girl so therefore weak and needing to be protected. Just die you macho pig. Die.


Whoa! He doesn't mean it just because "she's a girl". It's because she a weaker girl who's barely been outside in her life and therefore can't defend herself. The second reason is because he insisted on boarding the ship and he therefore believes he has the responsibility to bring her back safely.

I'll be disappointed if that's what happens... It would be way too predictable. Especially now since this mystery is one step above the last one.

The series is now moving! A lot better than the first episode I must say. That dude Maurice is retarded lol I bet the gun blew up on him. I'd be the one to kill him if I was there just because he'd be a problem for the rest

Just getting better.
Now she is more like Shinku to me. Afraid of something, proven by her shaken hands.

This is remind me of a manga where there are group of people who trapped in a mansion and play role as rabbits/bunnies/hares or wolf( only 1 wolf)

Maurice really is messed up, cracking that quickly. And I'm betting on the blonde guy as the "hare". Gosh, I must be stupid. I didn't attempt to solve the mystery, but I doubt I'd've been able to if I had.

Oh, and, this reminded me of Umineko.

Oh god that cliffhanger.........It's almost PAINFUL!
One thing I have to say, Gosick has one of the BEST endings I've heard, it's just such the perfect song for it! It adds to the chaos/mystery feel that's given after that glorious cliffhanger, I'm sure that effect will continue in later episodes too.

Victorique's laugh was literally a-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha. no caps because that's about how serious she was.

A murder on a ship that supposed to be sink 10 years ago, then suddenly all passengers started to kill each other, repeating the same tragedy....This setting just like that NDS game; 999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors

Even Kira's/Light's laugh cannot beat her laugh.

I hated Kujo in this episode. He's such a whiny boy who complains not getting food and being the stupid one between the duo. It will be great if he also quick thinking and serve Vic as her Watson. I do respect him for protecting Vic though.

This show is dumb.
Everyone is irational, stupid and annoying (apart from Victorique).

Why would you go on a boat just because you found an invitation in a dead persons boat. Something bad was obviously going to happen otherwise they'd be no need to avenge it. If killing the fortune teller was getting revenge then it means she had something to it and since she supplied the hares there's a good chance it was going to be related to the food. So why would you you immediately eat it. They didn't even talk to the people there they just ate in silence in a dark.

Very creepy. But I like it. I usually don't watch stuff like this.

Their dinner was...creepy. LOL

The girl is the hare I think. She resembles one of the children in the flashbacks.

Obviously, Kujo didn't die. He's the main character. XD

Victorique's laugh XD It's so monotone.

such a great anime, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

I loved the concept for thriller/mysterious anime in time before 2nd world war. It's original, I didn't watched something like this before.

Also, Victorique is cute, I loved her!

The end of episode was strange. Main Character won't die, it is just impossible ;)

Eh I'm not really feeling it so far. The "mystery" isn't much of a mystery its pretty predictable. I'm not liking either of the lead characters so far. Kujo seems like a standard, cliche, "I will protect the weak" character. Victorique is pretty obnoxious so far, her character design and tsun attitude is kind of killing it for me.

I'll give it a few more episodes I hope it picks up. This reminds me of Umineko but with less likable characters.

This episode was great, I like a lot how there was more action and mystery. The story was interesting but it wasn't really original, there are a lot of games, movies and stuff like this everywhere. Also, I'm not really sure if a boy would be willing to give his life for a girl he just met, but bleh maybe it's just me being negative about life.

You're absolutely right it's not that original but it was still very good suspense. I love these types of mysteries where one by one the people end up getting killed off. Sometimes I think I watch to many horror/suspense movies.

Let me guess, it was a trapped gun. It was meant to kill the one who would try to use it.

So Victorique is scared of water, uh? :P

Either the actor or the girl is a survivor of the earlier shipwreck. I would guess on the girl since she gave them a weird look when they were fighting in the corridor. It looked like she felt guilt since they weren't supposed to be there. She probably invited a lot of people who were related to the last shipwreck. She also could have the money for such a complex plan since her father is the owner of a mine.

I say the gun didn't misfire. More like it never fired at all.
My money is on either the blonde dude, or the women fired at that minister guy.
Something like one of them is a cop investigating. Or whatever.

Somethign that annoys me on this series is the need to make Victorique look inferior sometimes.
It totally crushes her image. I'm not asking for an character without weakness, but I could deal with some more realism and less sexism.


I totally agree. And I find Victorique’s fake laugh highly annoying. And I don't personally like her type of characters at all. I just find it boring when some people are too smart without any effort. And the way she's lacking facial expressions is just dull.

Victorique is a really fun character. Aoi Yuuki delivers.

When Kujo went on about how Victorique is a girl and he must protect the weak... I found that pretty cheesy. Also, Kujo would probably be more interesting if he didn't narrate all his thoughts. Narration can be fun when the narrator is an unreliable one or snarky, but Kujo is neither.



Yes, that makes sense. I think it was the narration that made it kind of cheesy for me.

I start to like the opening it's quite catchy. Myster on ship, that's a classic, but I disliked the stupid behaviour of some of the passengers.

Victorique is my favorite loli. Next time I encounter a horror scenario, I want to just give a fake laugh instead of worrying about it. That gunfire at the end could have been a blank or worse a gun that shoots the shooter(a gun that shoots backwards)


She can't take your bullshit.

I suspect the actor(Ned Baxter) to be behind this. Reason is no one will willingly give away the fact that he is scheduled to play a murderer in such a gruesome scenario(This is similar to an episode in The Mentalist, where
). Second is that only an actor knows of the theatrical tricks used to reproduce a wine bottle and wallpaper. Third is he stopped the old guy from getting on board because he wants to personally avenge him. I think Victorique figured it out. There was also a blonde in the flashback and the actor is acting quite cool for someone who is in danger.



The lady couldn't be the murderer because she is isolating herself and making her a target. She is also reacting almost naturally.(Maybe too much)

Wonder who the creepy spec guy in the background is.(Never mind, he was just lowering the cables. And died soon after.)


Kazuya has a deep dark past too. Fuck Sherlock and Hercules Pierot. Victorique is the best master detective.

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.

Victorique is an interesting character, her enigmatic personality fits her well and her perceptive trait is on point. Kind of Sherlock Holmes but gothic female version.

I hope that we learn more about her background.

straight into action.
the red dressed woman is obviously acting suspiciously. could be a viewer bait though.
victorique immediatly knows whats going on which is boring(not sure what word would be the best) hope its explained why she would just know everything. how would you immediatly guess that the other room you havent been in is the room you actually were in first (actually shouldnt it be obvious? because the door they left was on the different side of the hallway than the one they came back to) and she immediatly knew the text was behind a wall paper. and what was that about paint smell?
