"I'm going to buy vegetables" This sentence made me smile, who's watched this episode must have felt the same way, I'm really liking the way Hei and the girl relationship is developing.

Fortunately I watched the 4 special episode OVA prior to this season or else I'm pretty sure I would be swimming in a sea of uncertainty right about now..

The only thing about this season that kinda bothers me so far, is the magical girl transformation every-time the gun comes out, apart from that, this season has been living up to my expectations. I'm enjoying it as much as the first DtB.

The music in this series has got to be one of the most amazing I've heard in anime recently. Also the artwork reminds me a lot of Brotherhood!

Why would I care that goofy idiot Norio's mom died? Every second he's on screen it's a waste.

And is Suou apparently falling in love with Hei? She only has reasons to hate him. I guess it's just like in the TV series; Hei is a huge asshole but every woman falls in love with him for no reason.

PLEASE WATCH THIS VIDEO

it pretty much shows that hei/yin had a "relationship" or something along the lines....

ALSO, can anyone help me download it, please and thank you?


This is a preview of the side story of this season ( it shows how Hei lost Yin).


And it contains spoilers for those watching the series in release order, I suppose it's old, but for those watching the series now keep that in mind.

This season is bad! I mean, come on! Hei was so cool in the first season and now he's a drunk, he lost his powers, he doesn't shave, he seriously needs to have a haircut...
And thank god Yin is back because he was "this" close in becoming a pedophile...
I wish he snaps out of it soon... I really want to see the old Hei again!
I hate the word “fate.” Birth, encounters, partings, success and failures, fortune and misfortunes in life. If our lives are already set in stone by fate, then why are we even born? There are those born to wealthy families, those born to beautiful mothers, and those born into the middle of war or poverty. If that’s all caused by fate, then God is incredibly unfair and cruel. Because, ever since that day, none of us had a future and the only certain thing was that we wouldn’t amount to anything. - Takakura Shouma

I agree with you! This season doesn't suck! Well, it is bad, but not to bad. I hate how Hei is now! But he promised to stop drinking at the end of this episode.

Great first half, and really touching moments at the end of this episode; Hei and Suoh's promise, and the father/son grieving over the loss of mom.

Development at it's finest.

Really looking forward to the second half.

Suoh kicking that pole FTW ^^

When Norio yelled at Suou, he basically said the same thing Suou said to Hei in the second episode. She probably realizes that what she said before wasn't totally fair to Hei. Well Suou wasn't the one who killed Norio's mother, and I don't think Hei killed her father either, so kind of the same situation. Yay they finally realize it's Yin. I'm glad I watched Gaiden before Gemini. I like it when I'm not terribly confused about what's going on. And what was this that Mao said? Yin was Hei's woman? o_o It honestly didn't seem that way at all in the first season, especially one of the earlier episodes where Hei shook off Yin's grip...they definitely didn't seem like they were together romantically. Anyways, I'm loving Mao in squirrel form, mostly because he can do all these lazy human poses when he couldn't in cat form XD And once again, loving July. He gave Mao a lot of sugar.

Norio is such a annoying little shit, sadly I don't even think the death of his mother will finally make him stay away from Suou, in fact it might have the opposite effect >_<

Hooray for Hei and Souo getting closer. Now let's hope he keeps his word on putting down the booze for good.

Aww... sad ending already for the mother of Norio...
That ending almost made me shed a tear =( You are never prepared for the feels to hit you. Really, it's no surprise how people will hate contractors if this continues and it will be worse than keeping them in the dark, well, not that that's an option anymore.

Anyway, Hei... Hei is cooking!! And he will stop drinking!! Our Hei is slowly coming back!! YES!!

PD: That post ending scene... Yin... that's right, only contractors can see surveillance spirits...*Suou hits the pole* mmmm, I've heard Stockholm hits hard this time of the year.

Again, I have not found a single reason to dislike this season. It's so lovely I may even write a review when it's over.

Yeah but now he's got nothing, not even his star. He's no different from a normal human. Before he had the powers of a contractor but without the contract but he still had connection with the BK201 star.
I see it that way.

That hei couldnt see yins spirit was quite sad :/
I hope he gets his powers back. (On the other hand, he doesnt need them most of the time and I guess beeing a human is better then not?)
Maybe police girl will help him.

I really don't care for Norio and the trans-dad, they are so boriiiing >_> Hopefully we won't see them much from now on.

And uhh is Suo falling for Hei, really? I mean, I could buy that every single girl was falling for him during the last season, when he was acting all nice, caring and looked more handsome, but now there's literally no reason for that T^T

Yin's back. Good thing I watched the OVAs first since I do find her return to be remotely good, probably wouldn't have cared much if I saw this show directly after the first season due to how much of an afterthought she was for a majority of it except a few moments. Suou was also in Hei's shoes this time around, as she killed Norio's mother as a Contractor whereas only a while ago, she was chastising Hei for killing others as a Contractor. Probably was frustrated given what's happened to her for that to happen and her to change dramatically like that.

I really can't get behind Suou tolerating Hei now, especially since he spent 3 episodes being a massive dick to her. If the writers hadn't made him such a big asshole, this wouldn't have been a stretch at all, considering all the women in the first season who were thirsty for him.

Yin still communicating and helping out even in her situation. She's probably my favourite girl from this series at this point, with Carmine/Havoc following. Hope she's saved soon.

Leave it to Norio to somehow make a comedic scene out of mourning his mother. Still not sure if he has any plot relevance. Please don't tell me he's supposed to be a replacement for Gai and Kiko, because he isn't nearly as endearing.

Another episode that fully shows us that this season was made by kids & imbeciles, for imbeciles & retards. Once again the "jokes/gags" are flat/moronic. Enough with the squirrel/Tranny son, every second they are on screen it's a waste and super retarted.

Why should I care about some random chick dying? (Norio Mother). I didn't care one iota about her, her son and her "husband"

Why is it that every time the Pav chick activates her power we see a type of magic girl power transformation? Last time I checked I wasn't watching Sailor Moon or Cardcaptor Sakura.

Once again and idiotic attempt at comedy/pushing forward the idea that the Pav chick is still human felt completely flat on it's arse, the whole cooking herbs, them tasting like sh!t, even if July was eating his plate like nothing to it scene was stupid.

Lastly, Hei being a useless/abusive drunkard is annoying af. Off putting to say the least. 
Me every time I hear the word "reparations": 🤣🤣🤣
