| Nah I'm just out of line. Don't really mean he should die in the literal form; was just expressing my dislike for him. I don't really dislike him on second thought, just that I do not like him either. He's got quite a few episodes to prove me wrong. |

| Liking the character development in Shu, hope he thinks more for himself With the pen that Shu has, i hope the story doesn't go how I think it would go.. or it would just be another typical scene of betrayal of actually pressing the buttons, or just getting caught with what the pen can do.. Disliking Gai, he's only using Shu for his powers which he wanted for himself Not really liking Inori as much anymore from this episode, main reason i liked her from the get-go was because she can sing, but what she did to Shu was... heartbreaking, misunderstandings hurt alot.. even though she went against Gai's orders in episode 4, her actions and words this episode outweighs what she did in the last episode I still want Shu x Inori ending xD |

| I raged so hard when that chick barged into his room, screams at him for being naked, and despite being in a wheelchair decides to roll herself across the room so she can hit him for no reason rather than just close the door. I mad. |

I mad. That's typical in anime though... apparently it's funny. I would have wheeled that chick into a wall for doing that. |
| I kinda like Shu. Inori's probably going to end up falling in love with him, however. I'm not sure what to say about Ayase. While I'm glad to see any character in a wheelchair (or rather any disabled character) in a show, she's a bit too tsundere and prideful, saying stuff like "This wheelchair is like a part of what makes me unique." But she's still pretty refreshing and a hell of a lot better than Nunnally. |
| (◕ᴥ◕し) Hello! Did you know? Barnacles have the largest penis to body size ratio of the animal kingdom. |
| They should've just kept it at Gai and Inori banging each other in the room instead of Inori helping Gai to some blood transfusions. It'd make for some loldrama. Well at least Shu seems to be coming out of his pussy shell. Far better character than Yukiteru so far. And for the Leucocyte to make a crater like that only at 3% output. Scary to think what it can do at full power. |
 |
| Ughh Inori.... |
 |
| my heart skipped a beat when i saw Inori going into Gai´s room *A* It seems Gai has a secret illness? and i wonder who is the woman they talked about. I hope Inori is not a clone or something. I still dont like Shu, im hoping he gaves up of betraying the funeral parlor. Gai is the man. period. |

| Dude that was hilarious when inori walked in gai's room i was like.. wtf are they gonna do? but yeah good thing it was for some blood thing. |
| LET JUSTICE BE DONE; THOUGH THE HEAVENS MAY FALL |
| People don't get it : Shou is a pussy , but he has an incredible power and he could use it. But prefer to cry and embarrass himself. Yukiteru is a normal person, surrounded by psychopathic people and have no choice but follow Yandere girl. But in time of crisis, even crying, he would do the right thing (like in last episodes) It's pretty easy acting cool when you have the power to destroy a robot: it's little more difficult when your main weapon is a dart...... |
| Guh, really didn't like this episode. Putting aside the obligatory redhead tsundere nonsense, Shu's place in everything is so awkward. He's objecting to Gai in a ridiculously childish fashion when the real problem is the self important you must be blind comments rather than just #$%@ing explaining Funeral Parlor's motivation already. Yes, we've seen GHQ do some evilish stuff and abuse their power, but Shu really, actually has no reason to support Funeral Parlor. He has seen them do nothing but take lives in combat and draw the organization's ire. Sort of apart from that, I thought the ending made this episode such a waste. He spends the whole time training and finding he's not exactly up to terrorist snuff. Does this make him consider another path? Nope. Does he strive forward and improve? Nope. He just uses his power. Exactly like he did before. Exactly like he got into this whole mess for. The scenario was even described such that there shouldn't have been anyone present to grab a void from. That's not what they were training him for. Now I've got my own objections to them training him like a normal soldier instead of focusing on the miraculous ability that is the whole reason he's there, but with the rest of the episode being what it was, that ending was sort of awful. I'm sticking with this cause it still has some neat ideas and good action, but it's definitely not the high quality execution of common themes and cliches that it seemed at the beginning. |
| Ah man, poor Shu... I feel bad with what happened between him and Inori. |
| I actually hated this episode... Put aside the fact that Shu is an idiot for even staying in that screwed up place, Inori and Gai completely destroyed him. I would have left that very minute and never looked back. The one motivation for him to even join the group just told him that she did everything because she was told to do it. Are fucking kidding me?!!?! I would have left and, even with the tracker pen, would have called the GHQ and told them exactly where to go. If they sent Inori to talk to me, I would have drawn the sword to knock her out then tied her up and leave her in a park. Seriously, she's a goddamn bitch! You play with a guys emotions in order to get him into the group BECAUSE YOUR WERE TOLD TOO?! Then you have the gall to ask why he joined? ARE FUCKING KIDDING ME?!!? You just forced him into the group and you wonder why he's there? What the thought didn't cross your mind WHILE YOU WERE CONNING HIM!!!!!!????? There has to be a limit to what you can do for someone... I mean come on. Argh.... I can feel the homicidal rampage building. |
| Huh, I didn't realize Kenji was a kid 'til we finally see him out of the prison suit and wheelchair. And Shu's training reminded me of the movie Wanted. Protagonists have the same timid personality and yet are being trained to fight. XD |

| I don't understand why organizations in anime always expect a random person to be fully capable. Really, what were they expecting from Shu? I didn't like Ayase at first. She got a little better towards the end. |
| This was a step down from the previous episode. Shu has to be the wimpiest protagonist I've seen this year. Seriously, why the hell is he even staying with this terrorist organization and putting up with their BS? He doesn't agree with their ideals or anything. Plus, at least in his mind, he has lost the girl he was interested in. She and everyone else is just using him for his powers. Also, Inori has to be the most soulless lead female they could've come up with. I think her entire purpose in the show is to boost her VA's (or another VA's that's not doing her talking) singing career. |

| Shu has to be one of the biggest pussies in anime. |
 |
| I think that this was the best episode so far, not that that's saying much. Leukocyte is continuing the biology theme. I hope they start doing something with that soon. I don't like undertaker. They sound like a bunch of cultists or a really fanatic terrorist cell... oh, wait... Shu got a lot better this episode. Sure, he seemed pretty weak when he was trying to get Inori to leave the terrorists, but the important thing is that he avoided succumbing to Gai's bishonen, egotistical charisma. I'm sure he'll eventually end up another mindless peon, but, until then, at least he can still attempt to think for himself. |

QFT. The only thing that does Shu any justice is that he has 'God-like' powers... And the only thing that is doing this anime itself any justice are the female characters. Oh how I have like a good tsundere. You say no but your body says yes. :3 |
    |
| I totally got the wrong idea when I saw Gai and Inori enter that room together... I like Shu already! Him showing character development is very promising. Though other wimpy characters are still on my list of favourites, like Tsuna! Gai got attacked?! Though I don't really like him, I don't want him to die by the hands of the wrong person! Shu should be the one to take his life. Why Inori? WHY?! I was on a rage when she did that to Shu. Fantastic episode! Next one looks promising. |
 I’m just trying to be okay. Some days it’s harder than others. I hide away the most real parts of myself from everyone else. The emotions that I try to escape from. The constant pain I feel. The nightmares that keep me awake at night. It hurts sometimes... knowing that the world is continuing happily all around me while I continue to drown in alcohol and slowly die inside myself. |
| I like inori saying that to shu , but sadly its just probably a lie and she's probably gonna end in love with him. I also want shu to betray them. |
| I still think Inori like Shu whatsoever. Being betrayed is not good for the health of children I'd say :)) |
 |
| I doubt Shu will 'willingly' betray them now. He seems to be in the group and he actually seemed to like that praise he got for his mock battle. I may have harsh on Inori, but she does seem to have maybe a little feeling for Shu, though she doesn't seem to understand what that feeling is. She might have to him to stay away from her because she's scared of the feeling she gets when he gets too close. Also, she maybe a soulless bitch for doing that Shu, but in her defense... Well, she has no defense. She's a soulless, mindless, doll who can only do as told and nothing else. I might change my opinion if she changes her personality. ------------------ I doubt Gai is dead, but I for some reason I feel as if that chick that was with him on the mission is dead. What a massive twist if Gai went there knowing that the thing was going to fire and then left his comrades there as a way to get the rest of them fired up. I can actually see him doing that [since he's a twisted Mother****er that uses people's emotions against them]. I can even see a scene where Gai and Inori are talking and Gai mentions that the death was necessary for the plan, Shu hears this and Inori just stands like the robot she is [probably trying to think about something but not being able to since no one told her what to think about]. Just like I can see him acting pissed about Inori changing the plan like that, when it was all his plan in the first place... I watched that episode again and he seemed to be playing it up a little too much. Inori and him are really close so of course they would be the only two that know the plan to trick Shu. I wonder if they all knew about the plan to trick Shu using Inori, or if they are in the dark and think that Shu decided to come on his own... Anyway... About the girl. I really feel like that chick is dead, but I also feel like no one will feel about it. They'll most likely all be worried about Gai and forget about the girl. Shu will be sad and then Inori will be curious and ask him about it... Ugh! --------------- I haven't been this pissed at a manga/anime chick since the NTR arc in KNIM!!! |

| Shu is pretty realistic, which I really like about this so far.. Then again, maybe it's just the similarity between the Shu-Inori-Gai relationship and myself that I can appreciate.. <. |
| Love the characters. And please don't let Gai die. He's cool. |
| I read Manga in both English and Chinese. |
| There was some other show/game/manga where the main girl was "kept" by the enigmatic rival/boss dude and a big part of the plot was her developing her own identity and independence (which may or may not have been tied with her falling in love with the protagonist). Can anyone help me out here? I'm pretty sure it had the whole "don't get too close to me" crap too! That said, I kinda want to ship Shu and Ayase now :P |
| Ha-cha! |
| Good episode Shu joining the Undertakers now lets wait and see why and when he will use the pen. Ayase is tsun tsun but i like his dere dere side alot . Inori dont liking Shu is a lie there is something more deep problably about the person she looks like and maybe thinking that liking Shu will be like a betray to Gai but will see. Wait for next episode and what happen with gai after the LAZER attack. |
| YES! Inori's feelings are fake! As soon as you see a girl fall in love with a protagonist for no apparent reason, you know this is shounen crap. BUT I'm glad Inori isn't such a heroin. This relationship might still happen, but at least there will be some DEVELOPMENT behind it. But wait, I thought that in the previous episode, Inori acted on her own in spite of Gai's orders? So what's that all about? Also, glad to know that Ayase isn't just a boob-on-a-stick, well -- actually she still might be, but being in a wheelchair's definitely made her more interesting. Overall, Respect + for GC. |
| Certainly is a twist in my book, she only said those things because Gai told her to... Of course I think Shu deserves a swift kick in the rear for being such a panzy so he got what he deserved. |
 |
| What the hell, Shu. The heroines in this series are all pretty great, but damn, I can't stand the protagonist. |
| Can't say a lot at the moment. As far as development for some of the characters, this was a pretty good episode. Ayase fan base grew by the thousands in one episode.lol. Yeah she was definitely the highlight of the episode for me. Gai's sickness, coward with power gets rejected(tho you can tell she has some feeling for Shu) and dat ending. Seriously tho, death ray in my Guilty Crown?lol Overall: I actually liked this episode a lot. 4/5 for the episode. Next episode looking like more action:) |

Jourdal said: i agree for some reason People want him to be some total BAMF instantly While the series is not even half way done,i admit that he is kinda weak right now but with all this stuff happening to him i'm sure this there way of him slowly turning into a BA at least that's what i hope for.That's what i figured, it's all opinions after all, but we've seen this before, wimpy every day kid grows into a badass. This show gives me vibes of geass, Eva and Eureka seven atm. I don't really dislike any of the characters, it's only been 5 episodes after all. My only issue is that the dislike for shu stems from him being...essentially a normal person thrown into this huge mess and reacting "normally". Its why i liked simon...and why i wasn't a fan of Kamina. |
 |
| Ok episode... it wasn't as good as the last one but to me that was to be expected, but at the same time i just couldn't find myself liking this episode all that much, it wasn't bad but at the same time... Inori really pissed me off i mean really... Firestalker5 said: If they sent Inori to talk to me, I would have drawn the sword to knock her out then tied her up and leave her in a park. Seriously, she's a goddamn bitch! You play with a guys emotions in order to get him into the group BECAUSE YOUR WERE TOLD TOO?! Then you have the gall to ask why he joined? ARE FUCKING KIDDING ME?!!? You just forced him into the group and you wonder why he's there? Pretty much this, i mean honestly that question in itself pissed me off because it already gave off the vibe of where the conversation was going, she played him and she asks him why he is there... really? Shu may not be the BA Gai is, heck he may even be "wimpy" but some people here are acting like the idiots in Undertaker which is the second reason why this episode was so so for me, they expect a average kid to suddenly become the pro solider, like when that huge guy drops a big fucking gun on him and when he obviously can't carry it he says hes hopeless? Also another thing i didn't like in this episode is the Ayase scene when she opens the door and hes naked, yet she slaps him... when she opened the door... or when Inori was teaching Shu how to shoot and she gets close to him and then after realizing her position says don't get close to me.. both of them caused the scenario and yet... Well hopefully the show improves more to what the other episodes were rather than this, but more importantly since Inori is obviously the main heroine they improve her character, because at least Shu shows signs of development for better or worse, while Inori on the other hand... |
