Cliffhanger!!!!! My god that was a good episode. It was getting really creepy, to the point where I actually went to turn on the lights cause i was watching this in the dark. It ended right where the current U.S. release of the manga is at. I need more.

Aaaahhh...I think I'm going to have nightmares. Naru needs to come charging in, sword drawn. Or else Mai needs to wake up - pronto.

I can't believe we're down to last few episodes! I'm not ready for it to end!

Well, I hope they at least wait until there's more manga material before they do another season. I'd hate to see this great serires wind up in the world of bad fillers.

Second season would be nice. If they do plan on another season then they'll have to wait a few years. I don't think you'll have to worry about fillers though since they usually do that with shows like Naruto, One Piece, Bleach etc... However, if they end the anime in some spectacular way they I really wouldn't want one since i would be satisfyed. More sometimes is usually not a good thing *cough* Death Note *cough*

Huh, wasn't expecting this scene with Mai and Lin. I've wondered why Lin wasn't recognized as Chinese from the beginning though - perhaps he's a bit ambiguous-looking.


Ending was pretty crazy. One thing they always do well is making a tense scene in this show. That was creepy.

wow, that was one of the most accurate explanation of the whole "Dracula/ Vlad the Impaler" story i've ever seen in a tv show!!! everything Naru said about Vlad Tepes is real, most writers tend to go a little over board when illustrating Vlad and say things like he drank human blood or killed his family or things like that; he only impaled the ottomans invaders and notorious criminals from that time and he did it to make sure that others are afraid to invade Valahia and therefore protect his country! i know he is known as a really cruel leader, but throughout history there are hundreds of others who have committed worse crimes than him for much less nobler reasons and are considered "evil geniuses" rather than "blood-thirsty monsters"! [sorry i'm taking it personal, i'm romanian]

but this Ghost Hunt ep was crazy!!! really looking forward to the next one ;)...

All the other assistants were targeted. It's only a matter of time before it's Mai's turn. Coincidence?

Dx That was so creepy...I'm guessing since she said 'Uso', she really felt that knife on her throat, and knows it's not just a dream...?

This current arc definitely blows the season until now out of the water.

The "cliffhanger" has gotta be a dream though. There's no way Mai would just suddenly have a kimono. She's either getting a vision of the future, or she's projecting the final memories of a victim who died in the past.

Awesome episode! There's something I don't understand. Why didn't Mai tell anyone about her dream about the bath tub filled with bloods.. I don't hate Mai, but I could only say that its her own fault she had to go through something like that, because she didn't tell anyone/Naru about her dream.. I didn't say that she could avoid being in that situation if she told Naru or someone about the dream, but if she told them, they might solve the case alot earlier, then she wouldn't be in that situation, right?

Creepiest episode and moment yet. What a cliff hanger!

BTW, I just wanted to say that this is one of the very few anime or manga were I've seen a japanese character acknowledge some of their past crimes as a nation. Kudos to the writer to treat it in such a normal manner and not just brush it off as an anecdote.

Was the Lin drama really necessary?? I mean, it's good that they talked about it but why did they have to insert this in a middle of a crisis?

Exactly. She's hiding all this valuable information. T_T She knows that she has ESP, yet she hits all the evidence she has on her.

You might change your oppinion on this Vlad here. But as for historical one, yeah, he was a victim of black PR throughout the ages, because someone had to write a popular horror book and because he wasn't exactly loved by major powers in Europe, being a strong and charismatic leader, who cared for his people - so most monarchs would look bad in comparison. That's what I believe was behind his story - he wasn't the first or last ruler to be demonised.

Well, that creepy pretty fast. It's probably a dream, but it's also probably what happened to Suzuki and the other guy.

That Oliver Davis seem like a phony. Naru seem to think that too, with the faces he's making.
