Darn you Shuri and Nia for killing the mood. I love how much they paired Tomo and Takatsuki in this episode. Koala with flashlight eyes is awesome though.

Bismuth can touch appear from a helicopter and put its hand on it and not put any wieght on said helicopter. Pro.

Tomo is getting really annoying, not calling Kurogane and all.
I'm just going to guess that it's not his brother but the past Tomoharu.

The enemies from season 1 appeared.

Tomo doing part-time job and broke plates.

Takatsuki and Tomo moment *blushing* and people staring at both of them.

Conversation showing Tomo is popular, even the girl that considers his childhood friend (not good at names) is, without expression, probably jealous. Tomo said something that made Misao pissed.

That guy with the girl who knows Shuri is one of the enemies? Satomi?

Shuri called Tomo's cellphone. It seems like Shuri and others are near where Tomo is, which can see the smoke from a mountain faraway.

Misao sensing him hiding something to her, which he's afraid of telling her. She's jealous that Takatsuki knows about it but not her.

Tomo's friend found a place that only later afternoon can show. He's trying to pair Tomo and Takatsuki up. Tomo told Takatsuki about him not wanting to tell Misao about "that". Takatsuki and Tomo moment, and Shuri and others disturbed them. The place they were finding was here! Mia shows her intelligence.

Misao also came.

Satomi was there! But even before was "Kagakagari" there. He took Mia as hostage.

Shuri also had a hidden skill she didn't show!

Tomo is hesitant to call for Kurogane.

Someone made explosion. Wonder who.

Liked the humour at beginning when Natsume got curry all over him because Misao had the volley ball pass through her. Takatsuki's breast bouncing thing is whatever, don't care. Bismuth is a nice machina...it can absorb magic and has a drill lance but what else can it do? Satomi Kyomu is ruthless to get Kagakagari because he kidnaps Ania to use as bait to get to him but Christina is not a demon contract with him it's the blob unless that is dead already but might have forgot. Why does Natsume not tell Misao about his dream that he kissed her and told her he loves her? Why not even tell her about Aine and what happened? Don't understand why not. It was funny the ruins were right next to their vacation spot. I also liked the feeling exchange between Natsume and Takatsuki before they entered the Kuremizaki fortress obervatory. The action was great especially at the part where Shuri uses that big weapon. The beta Castas Machina were nice too but the best is at the end when Natsume's brother saves all. Too bad have to wait till next week.

He was there in S1, yes, although I'm not too sure of who he was, apart from him being friends with the girl who looks like a guy and who knew Shuri but weren't really on good terms (quite early in S1, I think) He's a jerk though anyway xD...
Hmm say.. did they slightly improve the animation after last episode's failure? Or was that just because last episode was pretty much a filler episode anyway?

Anyways, if Natsume's woried about Misao dissappearing, wouldn't maybe Asura Cryin' be a pretty useful solution to the problem? Since that way, the demon's and the machina's power will go back and forth while multiplying in strength, which technically would mean that the machina wouldn't drain away the rest of Misao's soul, right?

Ah, at last, cool guy nr. 1 makes his appearance xD

Zero_r2 - Who knows what the director has in his mind?
However, there is a hint in OP - Tomoharu's left eye turns red (after a blood rush?) and something creepy pops out of nowhere.
It may be only a coincidence, but in this ep we can see one of his eyes turning red, but in this case it's a right one - most probably just a normal sign of anger, easy to spot in almost every anime series, cliche ;)

...Wow. The way Tomo tripped into Takatsuki was so on purpose it wasn't funny. What a fake way to land on someone, and terribly clichéd.

I'm tempted to say that this is even more boring than season 1.

You're not the only one. I also have a hard time understanding who the real villains are sometimes. It seems like whenever a "villain" is introduced, they turn out to not be the real villain....or at least not the one of concern at the moment.

Why would you need to understand who the villain is? Why do you even suppose there is a villain? The writing of this show is not exactly sophisticated (haha, understatement of the year), but at least it shies away from clear-cut villainry and goes for shifting allegiances after how characters act.


As regards to the episode, it had Shuri in it so I'm okay. The rest? eeh.

Now, now ..

This ep was rly something!

finally a decent ep from a long while >_>"

Natsume & Takatsuki moments

Misao's Jealousy (Ao(Tomoharu's friend) too, maybe?)

Shuri & others disturb Tomo's & Takatsuki's moment

Satomi appears (one of the GDs, if I remember correctly)

Tomo isn't responding to Misao telling him to summon Kurogane, basically cuz' of "that" ..

Shuri falls, Ania is kidnapped.

n Finally, a mysterious person appears with Tomo saying before falling unconscious : "Brother..."

I would say as a first thought on this s2, that it has a lot of potential! n hope it can meet my expectation! the plot pace is starting to be kinda good.

5/5 ep indeed(Well, we still have the drawing issues, but bleh.)

Looking forawrd for next ep~ (even tho, I don't rly think we'll c Naotaka this early on the show "just guessing in here" n it was Kagakagiri on the preview -__-)

When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.

I always wondered how Misao can change outfits. Is the a cloth shop for ghost?

Wow An really looks cute there. That stupid ribbon she wears doesn't flatter her.

Heck of an episode. This is continues to get more interesting every episode. Cliffhanger there. I wonder who it's going to be? Probably not his brother, that would be odd for him to show up now. I hope they show him, or explain him, at some point. Maybe he's the past Tomo, and his brother isn't real? Who knows.
