Really scary episode. That ghost made me scared really bad. Shizuko and her suicide also make me wonder why would she do that when she has a nice kid named Shigeko. I also wonder if Shizuko has some incest problem with the way she was sleeping with her child to a point where she was squeezing him close to her face. I noticed Oba Yozo was bullied a lot and made fun of when he was young but there was this weird kid that was ok with him and that he helped, wonder about him. The boss of Shizuko from the newspaper looks really strict. The friend of the Oba takes advantage of him by taking money from people who interviewed him. The small detective guy looks really weird with his eyes and I don't trust him. At the end I am really worried about Shizuko and what Oba might do to her, especially with that ghost having a grin on his face that looks nasty. I also don't understand the father and his mask thing (is it to scare Yozo when he did something bad)? Did like a lot the hat design of the school in the old days and still liking the art design of the anime. Also like a lot the intro by that 3D guy. It is good info but do not get all of it.

I had the exact same thought~

"The small detective guy looks really weird with his eyes and I don't trust him."
I believe that was the butler (or so) who takes care of Oba.

"I also don't understand the father and his mask thing (is it to scare Yozo when he did something bad)?"
I think that was the image Oba has of his father(big, tall, strict, scary...), or so. Anyway it was his own imagination only.

Overall, the 2nd ep didnt impress me as much as ep1 did. I hope we will get a great conclusion in ep3, be it homicide or another suicide or whatever~

That is nice that we both wonder same things. Figured out it could just be the way things are in Japan at the 1930 time period.

Yeah it is, now I know after some subs for episode 1. He is but he could also be someone who reports to the father also.

Hmm.. cool story bro .. would fit in, except that the story is actually pretty cool xD
Although.. This guy's.. had a really traumatic life O.o

And his ghost/monster-thingy is.. really.. weird : / And slightly scary O.o
...wait.. Pretty much so actually..

This guy... is screwed O.O

Somehow, this story is great, even though it's really fucked up, gotta see the next episode : O

Another wonderful episode. I want the soundtrack.
The scene when he was in the room and someone watched him in from the door was scary.
The rating should be much higher imo. Probably kids that has watched the wrong show. And I know everyone has diferent taste. But this show is amazing. The characters, art, music, story etc.

This is such an amazing series. This guy has a lot of issues. I feel kinda sorry for him. Hopefully nothing bad will happen in the next episode, but with the dark atmosphere of this series... I won't count on it.

The monster was really creepy. :S

If Blue Literature continues to be this good, then it will easily be one of the best series of the year.

this show is getting better and i already thought it was awesome
to me its like mega awesome now
very dark and very interesting
the monster that Oba sees smiling nastily makes me think he is going to do something messed up and just after getting himself involed with a suicidal lady he goes to live with another one >.<;;
strange as well because she has a kid so why is she so deppresive?
and when she said "i have a home but its not up to human standards"
its funny cos he thinks of himself of a monster so he would live perfectly there
can't wait for the next ep :)

Dang, the image of that monster creature is stuck in my head. What is that thing, really. I shouldn't have watched this at this hour. Oba's just fucked up. And that weird kid who claims he could see what his true form is... come to think of it he's the one who started all these "monster" crap. Hmm.

He is similar to Kira or it's only me?(well if the author of death note is working on it it may be the case..).
This boy needs some insanity.If he gets it this show will be badass.

So much of this show reminds me of Mouryou no Hako. I want that to be completed subbing so I can marathon the second half of the show.

This is ok. I don't think that there is a strong enough characterization of Youzou for me to be particularly affected by his story. As it stands he seems more like a self child who convinced himself that he's crazy in order to keep from becoming an adult.

Overall though, I kind of like this show. I think I've now found about 4 potentially good shows this season which is 3 more than I expected.

I was hoping I wouldn't be disappointed after that amazing first episode. And I wasn't. I'm loving this anime, I find myself giving 100% of my attention to it while watching (which is rare, lol).
Same here.
Just like the 1st, this episode was great. Even if having a few big differences, this anime reminds me of Death Note more and more, but this episode also reminded of Ghost Hound for some reason.
The monster concept is interesting, and the story is always well executed, but I was disappointed when the monster smiled and the episode finished right away. Too short, I want more. D: I have the feeling that the next episode is going to be the last one of this arc, sigh.
I wonder if he's going to have sex with that woman too, I wonder.
His "friend" is quite a jerk, btw.

Thought this episode was more interesting than the first one even. Looking forward to the rest of it.

Does anyone know if they're sticking to this style for the other stories as well? Or will different people dominate the production of different stories?

i didnt want to see yozo cry though...its sad that he doesnt blame or is resentful over the women gang ppl who molested him....he tried to put the whole fault on himself....this traumatized him to portrait himself as a monster..he hates himself basically and fees he doenst deserve to live...but at the end he still has a little hope for himself....he actually wants to think differently but he needs someone for that...think his biggest sadness is his solitude...its sad...ofcourse loved the ep no doubt..this really tempts me to read the book...

thats exact what i am wondering...hes highly matured to be a school kid...dont know suddenly i find him kindof ahem...sexy ..ahem..ahem..
hes very much reminds me of light not only the looks..light kindof had a disturbing personality..and was hot too...^__^

It was quite ridiculous the way they introduced the new character with no background or whatsoever, although it's already pretty much stated that she lost her husband as Tsuneko did. Did I just saw a pattern there? I'm not really interested in this book, doesn't look appeal to me but I guess I'll stick with it until the next story comes up.

Not only that Linalee-Stratos she was also moving with her legs and I wonder it it was normal reflexes or a itch around you know where. I guess it was the depression in the end. Watch episode 3 and you might have a different opinion of her.
