----------------------------------------
Gareki still badass as ever, nice.

Poor Tsukumo though. I feel sorry for her this episode with the way she is held hostage. Oh I feel sorry for Yogi too for being hospitalized now.

Hang in there Tsukumo ;.;

Damn it, poor her.

So that's how Tsukumo was abducted. It took a bit longer time to reach to how manga was shown.

Wow @ the cliffhanger at the end.

Is she dead? Oh Wonder if he can kill other members that easily.

Gareki x Yogi reminds me of Akira x Shirogane from Monochrome Factor though Yogi doesn't ask for kiss.

I rooted for Nai x Yukkin but he gave the snowman to Yogi. Oh well

Looks pretty dead to me...

If Karokou could kill other members that easily, I guess every junior member (with exception of Yogi who clearly has an abnormal body condition/freakishly powerful alter ego) who get inserted with a poison syringe in the den of enemy would wind up the same way because magic tricks or not they are normal humans bodies as far as we are aware.

But not many members would wind up in the same situation as her. She was caught off guard in both circumstances, 1st hearing that Yogi has lost it/Gareki might be dead and 2nd time mistaking Karouku as a civilian. Her inexperience, and kindness played a factor in her failure. I have a hard time believing that someone else like Kichiki who keeps her emotions separate from job and even Jeki who seems like a sly crazy prepared bastard would end up the same way.

As to the ain ep. best after episode 4. The first four episodes of Karneval were exciting, the next 4 rather slow and dulll. .It seems that the show has picked itself again from here on.

Good episode. It's picking up again as I expected and Karoku's personality makes me want to punch him more so than the Manga for some reason.

I thought it would be rather gratifying to know that the telepathic communication between Nai and Karuko is painful for him as well. He clearly didn't asked for Nai shouting Tsukumo Chan in his head when he was out there enjoying the party, though he didn't seem to mind it.

More random thoughts on this ep:

Silver Yogi was better this ep than the last. I am not fond of his intro, could have been so much better.

When will the sub come out? I kind of glazed over Akari's conversation on Yogi with Gareki/Nai in the manga, want to listen his explanation in the anime.

Tsukumo scenes were excellently directed, good music all around, her flashback of Hirato is my favorite scene of this ep, but why would they skip that little panel of kid Tsukumo looking at Hirato first time? Do they plan to insert it in next episode?

Karuko is hot. He really is. Love his theme, and that blue ring he wears.

Uro is badass, did he just swiped over two Tsukomu lvl guys in a blow? Could he be near Caption lvl?

I like the slightly more focus Izana is getting as compared to manga where he popped out of nowhere to be a noteworthy. character at authors convenience. It always looked to me that the makanga decided to amp up this character's importance much late after introduction, like I need someone, why not use this bystander I made, he's a good character design. Which in turn made me ask, who is he and why should I care about him?

I'm rather disgruntled at the less focus Akari Sesei has in the OP. Its more about showing flashy Circus fighters most of whom are more background support in the actual anime for now. Akari has more screen time & a little mini arc on him, yet he's the one in the background in op:-( What is this reverse thingy going on.

Well... I finished editing Karneval for Anime-koi like 12 hours ago, but the QC for script is currently MIA so it's delayed. It would've been out like 6 hrs ago.

I loved Silver Yogi's screaming laugh at the start, that was great, it was a shame we didn't get to see more of him though, but nice to see our normal Yogi back! Hope he recovers soon.

Wow, I hope Tsukumo isn't dead, I was really starting to like her. But the way she lay there with her eyes open and Karoku closing them seemed very final. I've not read the manga, so I'm really looking forward to see what happens in the next episode.

Booooooo. Let the anime only have there fun. Anime wise she looked dead which is very intentional cliff hanger for new viewers.

Subs are out finally. I loled hard at Akari casually referring to Yogi as that idiot. Poor guy, even in a serious situation he gets addressed like that.

Well anyone watching until the end will know that she wasn't killed, I mean who would kill a character from a simple injection. Also an injection won't kill you in a mere 2 seconds like what happened there. Only logical thing would be fainting.

Is Yogi a Varuga, or part Varuga? The Dr. kept mentioning Yogi's reaction to Varuga cells in the atmosphere and what not. Makes me wonder if that patch keeps him from fully turning.

Yogi is the king of Varuga ^.^ or a prince maybe !.! He's the ancestor of Varuga? Umm..he's a damn trump card for Circus either way.

Lol one slap of his can knock down two people, that's pretty powerful. And yeahh Karoku, you sneaky. Since I read that part of the manga so long ago, I don't even really remember what happened. I love how he's just casually standing there when Tsukumo rushed into the garden. And Naaaiii~ he's such a cutie ;__; sleeping by the window just to listen for Tsukumo's voice.

Yogi's an even better character than I thought.

Noo, Tsukumo! Not only did she get beaten up and captured, she was knocked out by Karoku! Karoku, you bstrd!

But I am having second thoughts about Karoku... Who is he exactly?
And there seems to be a weird connection between Karoku and Nai.

I want to know more about Uro. He's almost as mysterious as Karoku.
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

NO!! If she's dead i'll go punch a Karoku cosplayer!!

He grows more and more into being an asshole in my eyes!
And I', afraid Nai will do something stupid out of guilt later. If Gareki would just talk to him a little bit more i think that would help <=(

She probably not dead.(I'm anime only so I have no idea). Pretty good episode though I would have liked to see some actual fighting.

Technically from what they showed in this episode, it seems like Gareki killed Tsukumo. However, I know better...

Must be very shocking scene for anime viewers...

Looking very fine this episode, Akari-sensei. <3

I am very intrigued as to just what Yogi's deal is.

Smooth move with that ring, Karoku. Smooth move. But I'll be kind of angry with you if she's dead.

Uro's voice makes me happy.

I'm glad Nai is likeable and not just an annoying idiot. He's really sweet.

I really like this episode...

-?kind of spoiler?-

And about the Yogi thing... Maybe it's a possibility that the circus members have those powers because they had a treatment that was based on the varuga's treatment? A bit like DMW, freezing etc. did. You have a basic enemy that had a certain mutation, and by taking that mutation and changing it so that they won't turn evil to fight them or something... As he tells us that he has a balance ebtween his human and xxx-unknown- cells when, if varuga cells come in contact with it the balance will be lost he goes berserk, right? that may mean that the unknown cells are from a varuga, right?

Alright episode!!!

The transformation didn't last that long and Yogi returned to normal but I wonder what this allergy thing is and how it affects certain members of Circus. Tsukumo was captured by the Varuga and she was kept captive for a moment but manages to escape for now and is currently knocked by Karoku in that greenhouse.

Looking forward to the next episode!!

5/5

After all is said and done, it was lame of Tsukumo to get captured twice that easily. Girl wut? You are a circus member, not some damsel civilian.
