| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Great episode. Ah Lady Koko and her bitch slap.. Oh snap sensei. Some ideologies just don't mix well. Lol, it's not a fireworks but I have to admit that sensei fights pretty well. Koto...she should value her life a bit more and listen to Myoue imo. |
 |
| She knows immediately that she's the cause, and she is taking care of it. The world was made by force by Ishida-san's character? The existences of mother Koto is like fake just because she gave the power to her? SuzuKen's character is the one who woke her up. "WHAT?" @ the end. |

I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| It's not your fault, Koto... I really love Koto's character. She's definitely one of my favorite characters because she is amazingly strong both physically and mentally. I can't wait for what she'll do in the next two episodes! The preview just makes it harder for me to wait for the next episode, though. |

| See what you can do in 23min? Good job Toei! I have to find some place to squeeze Kyousogiga in my top 5 favorites! I couldn't help myself but feel so excited throughout the episode! That slap was so original! Inari's character is so interesting! In fact, I like every character in Kyousogiga! |
| Dat preview. Koto getting depressed, then snapping out of it. Quite a few things cleared up, but Mama Koto's location and how Bishamaru somehow connected to her is still a question... and what exactly is Inari's goals? Can't wait for next episode. |
| Koto is such a beast, threatening to end everything all together. I was dreading the end of this it was such a good episode, can't wait for next week. |
 |
| So many reveals! - Inari confirmed as a god and his previous history with Shrine(though the latter needs to be elaborated on a little more especially what being an Observer entailed which the preview for next week hints at) - Koto inheriting the powers of the Bodhisattva - Shrine's role of the universe along with the Mirror Capital This episode also reminded me how much I loved the art style of this show Also Koto being Koto with the scream and her declaration before the ED X D Only thing I was confused about along with all of the other characters was how Yase got amnesia. Fucking Inari "Oh it's already happening to her?" Stop keeping us in the dark dammit! |

| Things got serious at the end there. Those punches from Koto and Myoue must've hurt. |
 |
| damn so Koto is a fusion of a god and buddha but is their a difference between a buddha and god? lol either way the story is about to be concluded now, great ride! |
| I was amazed by Lady Koto's slap to Inari. Classic. Then that punch. Haha. Glad to see the human form of the other familiars. |

Quite a few things cleared up, but Mama Koto's location and how Bishamaru somehow connected to her is still a question... and what exactly is Inari's goals? Can't wait for next episode. I discussed this in the last discussion forum, but basically Bishamaru works by counteracting the magic imbued in the RAW, or the hammer (if you want a better explanation, message me). It was revealed that the hammer and Inari's sword both have the ability to open up dimensions, so I think Bishamaru acted as an artificial gateway between the Shrine Central and the Mirror Capital (which is revealed as the "thirteenth parallel" in this episode). As to why Koto ended up where her mom was is not entirely clear, but my theory is that the gateway was "well-hidden," because Inari was trying his hardest to hide the Mirror Capital from being discovered. Hence the gateway's all the way out in space and not on Earth (where I assume the Shrine Central is). As for Inari's goals, we know so far: 1) He's trying to save Bunny Koto (but the anime has not yet explained how and why Bunny Koto was trapped on the moon) 2) He's trying to protect the Mirror Capital, because he said "do you know how important it is to have someone by your side," and he's probably referring to Bunny Koto as well as his children. Since life in the Shrine Central is boring and lifeless, Mirror Capital means that much more to Inari |
| I'm not feeling it. I probably expected too much from the stellar first 5 episodes, but the last 3 really just don't feel like they've been cut from the same cloth. It's not bad. Just definitely on a lower tier compared to what came before. |
 |
| It all makes sense now yase t.t Dat ost... I'm not getting bored w/ the ost lol |
| Myoue seems more like the main character than Koto. |
| Pretty damn well episode. Inari is still acting so cold despite his affection and love towards Lady Koto and his children c': Yase has amnesia ?! WHAT. That's unexpected. inb4 , aren't Inari a god ? A god can do anything ... right ? 1idd0kun said: Kentaku said: Myoue seems more like the main character than Koto. Are you serious? All Myoue did was help Koto regain her confidance. Overall he's pretty irrelevant to the plot. It's all about Koto. She's the main character. That's why she gets to decide what to do to fix things up and save the world. Myoue x Koto. W-Wait , would that be incest ? |
"Children of Japan. And those who were once children. Listen! This is not a dream. This is not fiction. In reality, your superheroes were always fighting. To teach viewers courage and the meaning of justice! No matter how many enemies there are. No matter how strong evil is. Just remember. Does any another country have so many heroes? Has any another country been protected by multiple superheroes? Stand with me, friends! Remember when you used to watch your superheroes! Once you may have given up this dream. But today, you can be a hero!" - Kaname Jouji , Red Axe |
| I think Inari spilt his heart/the pomegranate into half and that became Myoue's heart, then after that he spilt his pomegranate into half again and that became Koto? Because at the end he said, 'Koto, my other self'. Though I may be wrong >w> 2 more episodes TT~TT I hate it when anime ends. |
Will you make a contract with me? ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼ |
| so koto is the reason why the mirror capital's falling apart (and also the reason the shrine found out about the mirror capital?) inari hid the mirror capital from the shrine and now koto wants to destroy the other dimensions too if the mirror capital and her family won't be saved. wow, probably the first time while watching that everything connected and made sense! haha :) |

It's all about Koto. She's the main character. That's why she gets to decide what to do to fix things up and save the world. Woah there. Kentaku was prolly only saying that because Myoue has helped out Koto so much, from letting her live with him, protecting her from harm even if it meant fighting his own siblings, helped regain her confidence, etc. So Kentaku was probably just stating that Myoue is without a doubt one of the best supporting characters, so much so that he has as much impact as a "main character." As for your statement, I disagree with Myoue being irrelevant to the plot. I mean, Myoue is THE Myoue. Myoue has part of Inari in his body, so he may very well be a part of Inari's big plan too (the anime has yet to explain why Inari needed to transfer his powers to someone else, when I feel like he didn't need to). And not to mention during the episode, the Head Priest guy was surprised when Myoue shook off all the little spirits with his beads. So Myoue's power is not to be ignored in the grand scheme of things (or in our case, in the next two episodes). |

| Awesome episode. Many of my questions were answered and I'm very satisfied. I'm definitely rewatching all the episodes for Christmas after it ends. |
 |
| Confirmed for best show of the year. |
 |
| Kind of devastated that there's only two more episodes. |
 |
| This is great. Questions are finally being answered. Koto is also a part of Inari O_O I don't know what Lady Koto's powers are though. Oh well, Greeeeat episode! |
| pew pew pew |
| Wow, new characters... the lady could even control those little demons (but why we have four instead of just two?) A lot of destruction but somehow I got a bit annoyed with dad Myoue keeps being evasive with explanation and even gives insensitive remarks of all the mess happening around, including the loss of memory of his daughter. And of course the jinja master just stood there and gave the younger Myoue all the time to talk to young Koto and rouse her spirit lol And the solution of the younger Koto is just the usual impetuous unthinking brute force approach -- I will destroy everything if I don't get my wish lol If the jinja master was right in saying that nothing can be helped to keep the artificial world, then all Koto can achieve is just more destruction, right? But of course I'd expect some miraculous solution would come up so that Koto does not have to carry out her threat lol And still we don't know what happened to mama Koto after she left the artificial world. Wasn't she supposed to give her body back to the Kannon-sama? So why could she sustain her human form? And what happened to papa Myoue after he left with Koto? Did he leave not just because of Koto's departure, but also because he could not stay away from the real world forever due to his Observer job? |

| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| Wow crazy. Good episode. |
 |
| Best episode so far imho. I loved the OST during the Shrine's entrance. Also finally we understand a lot more. But there is one thing that I don't understand: Why is Nase losing her memory? |
 |
| See, that is how you get things done. Threaten to destroy all of creation. |
| Good episode mostly. I know I'm missing something though. Just don't have good enough memory |
 |
| Disappointing(rushed and dragged at the same time lol) episode overall but the end was fantastic. And about Kami(神) thing, it's pretty much pointless as saying "Dragon and 竜 are different". Far-East-Asians perceive G(g)od(s) all the same as 神 and don't care about such difference. It's just Americans who put too much weight on the word "God". |

Just definitely on a lower tier compared to what came before. I completely agree and exactly with that count of episodes. The episodes from when the mother came back have been surprisingly weak and I'm just not really feeling it. |
| Dat Koto and Myoue at the end. |
| Tutturu ~ |
| best episode, depending on the last 2 episodes i may be giving this a 10, i love how so much of the series makes sense because of the explanations this episode. Koto's developments in addition to that scene myoue were just phenominal, music is 10/10 worthy as always, animation was gorgeous and the emotions conveyed in this episode were just something else Riez said: considering koto is the only one of them that is actually lady koto and inari's kid, though isnt myoue like years older than koto....and already in a relationshipMyoue x Koto. W-Wait , would that be incest ? |
Immahnoob said: Jizzy, I know you have no idea how to argue for shit, tokiyashiro said: Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| i can't help but love the ending of this episode. Gutsy Koto. Time to find out how everything will be resolved. All of reality depends on it! |
| This show has completely blown my expectations out of the water and is quickly becoming one of my favorites. Can't wait to find out how they end up wrapping everything together. |
| I've come to notice that any scene which features song number 38 from the OST, 世界の果てまでも, (Roughly translates to Till the Ends of the Earth) instantly becomes fucking epic. The car bashing scene from episode 00, the lightning scene from episode 1, and then Shrine's entrance scene in this episode. Holy shit I came from my eyes and ears and then rewatched that scene like 10 times. Still VERY happy I was able to pick up a copy of the OST in Akihabara. |
Achieve your mission with all your might. Despair not till your last breath. Make your death count. |
| I want a familiar (or two), even if Shrine-thugs can turn them against me. |
| Well that "sort of" explained things. Lots of fun destruction this episode. Way to go Koto, you broke the multiverse. |
  |
| So how was that woman able to control Aa and Un? |
| ooh, so good =D |
 |
DawnJ said: it's pretty much pointless as saying "Dragon and 竜 are different". The two are in fact different. It's two words from two different languages and culture. Think of each of them as a set. There is an intersection between the two sets. However, the two sets are not equal. |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| Another impressive episode, things sure are going to get quite interesting in the next coming episodes! |
