Oh boy, the tense feeling of the show returns again in this episode.

Tbh, I felt bad for Takuya and Yuki this episode considering they had no involvement with some of the more controverisal events. Then again, this anime puts them into tough spots so I'm not surprised. Souma is no pushover.

While it took some time its nice that the older brothers attempts to protect his brother was finally known. So Souma's main reason for his resentment is because Yuki tried to shoulder the burden of family and protect him huh talk about being ungrateful. Still at least they were able to get him away from the agency. Hopefully Yuki will be able to repair the strained bonds that's between them. Its nice that the PD's were able to finally meet with Takuya. Looks like all paths lead back to the light of hope academy after all. Overall a decent ep that managed to resolve the fight with Souma decently while also expanding upon the Tama Shi. Looks like the loss of Souma is only a temporary setback for the agency though. Im rather curious about Suzuna's powers though and i hope that she will get much more of a role rather than just as a lackey.

Decent episode.

So they managed to get back Souma. It would be a problem if the agency managed to get him.

That was a good episode in terms of plot, especially the story of Tsubasa and Yoshiaki. As a big brother Yoshiaki was impressive in trying so hard to protect his little brother, especially when they were younger and also was able to protect him when he was a tama-shi. I guess this episode depicted the importance of siblings, Yuki demonstrated this when she saved Souma regardless of the attack and that he might've killed her tama-shi Akira.

Next episode, Takuya's backstory and past.

I feel like the anime's starting to die out...the plots in each episode are just getting more and more boring...I probably drop it soon if nothing interesting starts happening.......

Actually, a good ep that I enjoyed a lot. They manage to get Souma from the Agency and the flashbacks were perfect.

Are people hating this anime just because they don't like animation ?!

I personally liking this anime a lot. I did not like early episodes, it was little confusing. But those last episodes have been decent.

Souma has been rescued from the dark side, hopefully he will become somewhat sane

Intense episode. I wonder if Akira will ever return.

Everything ended nicely. I'm glad that Takuya and company are gaining more allies. It makes it seem like figuring out the mysteries behind the Agency aren't just a pipe dream, especially now with more people on their side.

I would have let the annoying brat die, Souma is not a good antagonist and his actions are ridiculous. Looks like the Agency was testing kids for abilities related to artifacts. Regardless of that, the powers are so poorly explained even after 6 episodes.

The rooftop battle concludes with both artifacts that Souma had being destroyed, and Yuki saving Souma, taking him with them. Pretty bold to snatch an enemy, lol.

The moment between Tsubaba and his younger brother was touching. It raises the question of whether the artifacts contain the souls of Tama-shi instantly or do people have to go find the souls and then possess the artifact.

Takuya has some connection to the Agency and the Lacuna run 'Light of Hope Academy.' This part has got me intrigued.

I hope Souma doesn't become an important character in the story from now on because he really is one of those unpleasant characters as hell
