Well this episode was kinda intense.

We got Rinne facing off against Kain, an opponent that I think proved himself to be quite worthy of an adversary. I like his character design as a shirushigami though and in fact, the mechanics about them is interesting for their roles.

Nice bits of action and details. Kain is definitely a character that is interesting.

Kain's appearance. He's so harsh, because he knows her truth. He especially hates Rinne because it involves Rinne's father.

Also meeting his mother. Seeing how Rinne's father tricking her tennen love for damashigami company...

Rinne's soul vs. Kain. Hmmmm... he's not added to ED (he is, but not as main).

Kain's reason to pick a fight against Rinne felt pretty contrived. Even after knowing that the cosign was forged, he still insisted that it was Rinne's fault. I guess they really needed to introduce a new "antagonist" since the show has been going stale lately.

Also, how stupid can Kain's mom get? Every "love letter" Sabato sent her was with the sole intention of borrowing money from her, but she didn't catch on at all. It wasn't as funny as it was just plain dumb.

Average episode. I was kinda looking forward to this arc, but it'll probably turn out to be a letdown..

Once again, everything that has happened is the fault of Rinne's father. Ugh! Oh yeah, and the mom's naivety as well. I wonder how will they resolve the father's issue.

Kain really needs to know where to direct his anger at... Also Sabato really needs to be imprisoned or something.

Forced drama in Rinne being blamed by Kain despite his problems obviously having absolutely nothing to do with him. Also, Rinne is a weak little bitch, which is starting to get annoying as hell.

Also: FUCK. OFF. AGEHA. She is the worst character in the show and sums up so many of the things wrong with it.

Finally some change, we're out of the confusion circle where Sakura mistakes the relationship between Ageha and Rinne..
Kain is actually so cool and the episode was so good, I kinda like how Rinne got a new opponent, even tho what Kain did looked contradictory to me, as someone who wants to prevent people from dying before their time to make someone change his lifespan to pay his dept is a bit too much even as a threat but that was the main reason why this episode is great and enjoyable. Love it

Sabato's love letters are all asking Kain's mom to get him some money. Kain's mom does not even notice that she is being conned!

I enjoyed seeing the sakura acting without getting running after the other out there (although I understand that's not for her to do much).
I found a good character that Kain, liked him despite that and another that blames Rinne whereas the guilt and Sabato

Well Kain show up and already going against Rinne and co.
Rinne's dad is such an ass...taking money from other people and using Rinne as a cosigner...
This show is too mess up and well, it's good as well.

So Sakura is capable of facial expressions and emotions!! =O #Breakthrough

Of course his Robe of the Underworld and Life Flame were hidden right there in the same room LOL. But why didn't he grab the Life Flame when he got his robe back?

That tic/mite joke was so random lololol

Rokumon's reaction to finding Rinne's body was hilarious xD

LOL because of her personality? xD I never made that connection but I see it now. I think her personality is more like the main girl from Humanity Has Declined though. But very close to Bella Swan xD

Kain you tenacious jerk. Must be because of all that grudge that got piled up for years.

And wtf Rokuman lol? didn't expect him to sell his master out so quickly. :D

I really hope this show continues with a second season, but I guess the sales are not going well.

This series makes me want to say "I don't really care".
I'm still keeping my opinion that it's one of the most boring shows. Seriously. I don't see why would I enjoy poorly executed jokes that are repeated I don't know how many times. It's kinda like some review said, it's like a spin-off to either Ranma or Inuyasha; IMHO it looks like a spin-off of the first one. Well, as I can manage to watch the jokes in Ranma, I just cannot do the same in this show. Guess I just can't get my head into it.
Oh, plus, I usually don't wind any show forward, really, but the last two episodes of Rinne? I could hardly stop myself from doing that.
The show is a tryhard. But I like Kain's appearance. His character prolly will be cliche so... I'm just gonna say that I like his looks.

I'm going to have to agree, the episodes are kind of getting boring and have no point.

Rinne's douchebag of a father is still a fucking asshole and I honestly don't find his character to be funny.

He's the kind of character that I would gladly watch die but too bad he's already dead.

I love the manga but the anime is falling a little too short. I was so excited the first couple of episodes but it's so budgeted and poorly executed that I'm not looking forward to it as much as before. Still, I'm going to finish it.

I hope the next time they adapt another Rumiko Takahashi manga, they'll be given a bigger budget and put more effort into delivering the episodes.

"To those who can see her, she's just annoying."

True dat. TBH the announcer is the best character in this show.

And once again everything is the fsult of Rinne's dad. They really should do something about that.

I know that this show is still supposed to be pretty light-hearted, but in this episode we have had a new character introduced that considers it appropriate to take someone's life as debt for something that guys father did to his gullible mother, we have said gullible mother which much like all other of Sabato's 'love interests'/victims is being made to look as dumb and gullible as humanly possible, and then of course there is Sabato himself, a father so god-awful that he makes Gendo Ikari look like Father of the Year by comparison. I'm not sure if it is still supposed to be funny because 'lol Sabato is such baad guy, haha', but with ever additional episode I just want every single character in the show to beat the ever-loving sh!t out of him, he's just such an awful character in every single aspect.

Same here.
Idk, somehow I didn't like this episode that much. I feel like I'm not going to like this arc. :/

Wow. Sabato is such an asshole. Even worse than he was shown to be before.

The sad part is there are victims like Kain's mom everywhere. I heard of this type of scam happen way too many times in the 2010s and before in my country where some foreigner would pretend to be in a long-distance relationship with naive people only to suck them out of all their savings. Idk how common they are these days but I think it still happens.

That scene where Rokumon thought Sakura and the others killed Rinne killed me. xD
