Really good episode! The problem is that Ouri know what his brother does exactly!

Tomodachi has not announced any cancellation of the project. It just seems that there aren't good raws out yet...and there might never be.

Tomodachi hasn't announced anything as far as I know. cant blame lunar for quitting and for fear of legal reprisals but if anyone remembered the last time an anime was licensed at the middle of the series..the sub groups changed their names and "announced" they were not subbing it when in the next days they subbed the anime anyways.

A good example is linebarrels of iron which is a Gonzo production but there are at least 3 sub groups subbing it. (and on time).

There's a fan sub out for this ep now. It was pretty decent, but not the best. The previous 3 were all better in my opinion.

Best part is clearly when Ouri gets poked in the eye by Itsuki, what is that a cigarette or a pen or what? W/e she's pro.

the fansubbers really took their sweet time. by the time episode 5 comes out we wont need any fansub group because funimation will already have caught up

Too bad the animation dropped dramatically this episode, the concept was great and the writing is still as good as ever. Waiting for next ep now, in fan or pro-sub ;)

Finally, that took a while. It figures that it gets licensed just as the series gets good. I reckon these'll at least come out at a decent pace. And as far as I gather, better quality than the Funimation subs, soooo... I can wait. Someone'll finish this though, whether it's anon, a solo person sub "group", or one of the groups'll just change their name when releasing the series.

Good episode, glad Ouri kinda figured everything out instead of just having a hunch. Keisei is awesome too. Not only does he own, but his comic relief moments are some of the best. Easily the best episode of the series to date.

I don't think that was a HS girl that got killed and got lynched. Seems more like some OL that got destroyed. Skirt is a bit short and not pleated and the stocking looks like they're leggings or something semi-transparent.

But this is an anime, and it was a poor light shot. Just a guess.

Sometimes I have to wonder if Madhouse has it's special ed. team working on this series. There was a lot of inconsistency in the animation and some really awkwardly choreographed sequences in this episode. =(

That aside, the story itself seems to be shaping up a bit better.

Makina is still making speeches, Ouri's voice is rather annoying and Keisei is pretty cool.

Other than that, this was a pointless episode in which we learn pretty much nothing. It still amazes me this got licensed. I guess it's because dubbing it won't make it worse since the VA already suck.

For me, the disappointment of the season, unfortunately.

awww, that idol could have been such a cute character

*regains consciousness*
anyways, it was a good and enjoyable episode. i am starting to like hoshimura more and more.
i am wondering what kind of otaku was kessei (sp?)
yakuza and corpses really fit in nicely...
makina is cute.... when she is not killing away at shikabane.
a pizza girl with guns, there is just nothing out of the ordinary there.
yay for makina and ouri actually talking.
WAITAMINUTE, why is ouri being so friendly, and even hugging her?
and finally, ouri knows of his brother's doings...... now i wonder what's next.
the ending song wasn't all that bad.

Is it just me, or does Teki seem to be using an upscale? Their episode looks better when it's smaller than larger.

But wow...that was a crazy shikabane. Not just in the desire to sing, but overall, including her "song," I wouldn't want to be anywhere near her. I think she's better off dead now, thanks to Makina and Keisei.

I want to know what Ouri's role in this series will be. So far they are building him up to either be a replacement for his brother or get his own. They still havn't explained that cat. I'm guessing it shows he has supernatural powers, but than which ones.

This was a pretty decent episode. The animation wasn't bad, but seemed kind of off in a few places. I liked how Ouri now knows what's going on. Now if only we knew about that cat.

It was interesting that she says she didn't die but came back as a Shikabane Hime.. I thought that they brought her back after she was dead and completed some ritual to make her one, but it sounds like the process was a lot more natural than that -- Like she just so happened to come back. I wonder how kesei became her contracted monk and how common shikabane hime are.. since we know that at the same time the monk Honda under Kesei also has a shikabane hime.

I really want to find out about the cat as well. I'm surprised that it didn't lead him anywhere this time.

Finally, Ouri discovers the truth...





Still, it would had been much better if Osaki Kun had lived.. Maybe, she could form a contract with Ouri, since it worked for Makina and Keisei.

Nonetheless, it gets more interesting starting next episode.

Episode started off pretty well, but got incredibly cheesy towards the end.
I just HATE the main character. I hate his personality, his voice, his hair, just... EVERYTHING. God, I wish he wouldn't even exist, it'd make this incredibly mediocre show way better.

Really liked this episode. Hints of romance in this series? Kinda strange, but might be interesting. "Contracted Monk" meaning full explained now, but I wonder how Ouru was able to bring her back in ep. 1? And he finally learned about his brother.
I assume that one guy shown briefly is going to be the main villain, with the OP showing him and several other figures with numbers on them. Can't wait to see what's going to happen with that.

Agreed.
For some reason the quality seemed like it dropped a little bit.
But I still enjoyed this episode.

Great episode.
Damn, a great singer died. Her vocals is great, and way better than miku. Like the Ed song.
So, we learn that Makina's parents information past interesting. I like it.
Still hoping Ourin improves. Though some scenes are funny.

Aww, I love that ED song <3 So full of emotion.

Now we know why Keisei comes home injured all the time. And I have the same feeling you do. I get the feeling he is shortening his life force by continually healing Makina. I hope he lives though. He and Makina make an awesome team. I'd love to see them work together like this.
