| Jeanne being in love is probably the worst kept secret in this franchise by now lol. It looks like the episode returned to its more lighthearted mood this time. Silly Jeanne. Domi's role this episode was also hilarious. I find it amusing how these larger than life characters behave like lovestruck girls in this particular episode. |

I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Is suppose to be a happy episode with everyone enjoying their love feelings, but then I remembered that, Ruthven at any moment can rain on everyone's parade. At the end I dont know if I do a FMA reference or an Assassins Creed one. |

| I must say... while I am disappointed that they somewhat rushed the Géuvadan arc, I am really excited to see this one animated. This episode is probably the best one so far during season 2, in my opinion. I really hope to see them add the scenes they cut in-between the previous arc and this one, but I honestly kind of doubt it since they even cut the build up to this arc. But perhaps they will find a way to fit that in somehow. Even if they do, though, the fact remains that there was no build up, which is a shame. Buuut, I am so excited for the next episode since it will most likely adapt my favourite chapter in the whole series so far. My excitement about this next arc aside, I think they did a great job with timing during this episode, something I have felt was lacking previously. I especially loved the Vanitas talking to Roland and Olivier moment; Vanitas' reaction to Roland saying it's love was on point, and Roland and Olivier's reactions in general were great. Then we have Domi, Jeanne and Luca, and their talk was also well-done. I also really enjoyed how they did the first and last scenes in this episode, the lighting was great. One other thing I am disappointed by however is that while Noé said that he "didn't like Vanitas" in the manga, he was thinking about Vanitas telling Roland and Olivier "how could anybody love somebody like me", which has some interesting implications. I am not surprised they cut it, since they did something similar during the episode were they danced in the first season, but I am nonetheless disappointed that they didn't include that detail. Nonetheless, I hope they will deliver in this next arc. They did well in the Noé flashback episode during season one, so I have hopes that they will do well with this arc as well. |

| Despite how Domi-starved I was, Jeanne stole the spotlight easily, no contest. She's officially B.G. now. Possibly even this season's B.G., on par with Marin. Loved how she said she was willing to bang him if she saw Vanitas then and there. And she's going to try hiding her feelings lol. Speaking of Vanitas, he was cute to watch as well this episode, what with with him unsuccessfully using the "I'm talking about a friend" trick. Now that he loves Jeanne as well, I'm not worried about him dumping Jeanne just coz she loves him. Overall, this was a fucking amazing episode. 5/5 |

Nooooooo, Dominique, what happened to you? I'm gonna cry |
| This episode was very funny, I laughed a lot in some scenes. What happened at the end of the episode was quite unexpected, I'm curious to know what's going on. |

| Cliche episode for both Vanitas and Jeanne to realize their true feelings for one another HOWEVER this episode was comedy gold! I was laughing for the entire episode. Jeanne is such a peach she was so freaking adorable. Normally i felt like she would deny being in love...but nope she accepted it and is actually quite okay with it as well! I dont think Domi got stabbed at the end, the way the emphasized her hair my guess is Home Boy chopped it off. But man we come back and Domi is getting done in Dirty but this trash kid. Hopefully this next arc is better then the last. |

| Pretty light hearted and comedic start to the episode. Jeanne was funnier than vanitas. It's clear they have strong feelings for each other.. But ending was rather dark. I hope domi is ok. Also the next episode title is worrying but hopefully vanitas can do what he does.. I am all in for vanitas and Jeanne.. Jeanne is the type of woman who isn't the one to hold back when talking about her feelings with her friends but vantius does as he doesn't think too highly of himself. |
 |
| Also the anime background art makes Paris look even more beautiful than it is actually.. I had to change resolution to 1080 to screenshot them. Love the setting of this anime. Really brings out the story even more.. Vampires are so rich man. They all Live in houses meant for kings and billionaires. |
| |
| Of course now that the arc ended we're back to love teasing and romance, they took a long time to realize that they're in love with each other lmao, it was nice to see Domi back but that end is sure worrying for her :S |
 |
| Lovey-dovey episode until the sharp twist in the end. Still I cannot ship Vanitas with Jeanne. It's been many years since I passed the point of no return and where possible, such as here, I'm shipping the two leads--- Noé x Vanitas. :D Their bonding is on an another level though, such as when Noé tells Vanitas what he actually needs to hear about himself being fine as he is etc. Still hoping for some development though! :D |
 |
| Damn this episode was great, Jeanne and Vanitas really becoming one my favorite couples of the season. Just 4 more episodes to go, and it appears to be the final arc, can't wait for next week. |
 |
| wow, great episode. Love is in the air! |

| Love was definitely in the air with the entirety of this episode till the ending portion. Jeanne's reactions and mood this whole episode were on another level, too much for Dominique and Luca to take in, especially considering her feelings are really passionate and not subtle whatsoever, and it's for someone like Vanitas. She definitely carried this episode, alongside Dominique's reactions too. |
| This was honestly my favorite episode of the season. It was hilarious to watch Vanitas and Jeanne realize they are in love while everyone else reacts to it. The comedy in this series works so much better when it has its own sectioned block in an episode rather than being thrown in during serious moments. |
| OH BOY IS THIS A ROM-COM EPISODE LOLOLS, GREAT! The boys are back in Paris, where Noé freaks out about Vanitas's sickness...which he thought that it started from Jeanne. No boy Vanitas, your incurable "cursed" disease is that you're being lovesick because you feel pleasure that Jeanne bit you, and now that feeling can't be stopped. Even Roland and Olivier are on their resting stint talking about lovers and stuff, and Vanitas is there to receive some romance experience from them. And he literally shared his enitre experience with Jeanne with them...it's the lovesick disease that cannot be cured. He thought that he shouldn't be loved, until he contradicted himself in the same exact way. Jeanne is back at Dominique's residence having a regular tea break, and she spilled the tea on her affection for Vanitas, which sent her on a beet-red love spiral and Domi towards confusion with that confession. Also, the way that Jeanne understood love from her parents...er haha, it's not the stereotypical way of love and romance, and every advice taken from Domi only backfires even more to the point of absurd hilarity. Vanitas is so distraught to the point that he'd never thought that he'd love a vampire like Jeanne, and Noé brought up an interesting comparison between him and Astolfo, coerced during the Beast of Gévaudan arc. Everything was peaceful..until the final moments with Domi...and this kid whom exterminated her, he will be the central focus of the next arc. The best episode so far, and I can't wait for the next arc to come around. |
 |
| Dark days are coming... I really hope they capture the tone and mood of those chapters. They have rushed the Gevaudan Arc, so obviously they must have something good up their sleeves hopefully. Nice episode, loved the voice acting. The old-fashioned rom-com parody was great and the chills of the end was well executed. So who voices that kid again? |

| Well everyone's in love I guess. About time we've an episode like this coming, though those last few seconds did change this lovey-dovey atmosphere real quick. |
 |
| mostly a vanijeanne ep lol. and honestly i enjoyed it a lot. i didnt really like their "ship" before bc it was just lowkey sexual vampire bites-sudden cute moments n dates-highkey sexual vampire bites and repeat. but they're growing on me now. i wonder if roland's interested in vanitas romantically? bc if so that'd be sad for him bro wtf😭 vanitas' "i cant imagine why anyone would love me" was .. Woah. noe's words at the end there were perfect tho. who tf is this kid that keeps calling domi onee-chan ill KILL u |
| I am so happy I finally got to see this animated! Jeanne and Vanitas figuring out their feelings for each other, Vanitas taking advice from Roland and Olivier in one of the funniest and the most impactful scenes for me in the manga because he starts to talk more openly about his self-hate, and of course, Noe telling him he is fine just the way he is. Definitely one of the favorite episodes so far. Hopefully they will now give Domi's story the spotlight and I hope they won't rush it. I expect the directing to be top-notch for that one like with the Noe's flashback. |
| Noir… It is the name of an ancient fate. Two sisters who watch anime. The peace of the newly born, their black hands protect. |
| My cheeks fucking hurt, I couldn't stop smiling or laughing this episode. This episode is probably the reason I ain't really that mad that the pacing for the Beast of Gevaudan arc was kind of not good lmao, because I got to see this episode animated. Plus, it's a given that the manga is better overall, so I'm just accepting the anime for what it is now. Good to see Domi back, and she's already in pain, fuck. Let's see if the pacing for this arc will be better with 4 episodes left. |
 |
| best ship ever jeanne x vanitas !! jeanne is too adorable and pure !! |
| Comedy was hit-or-miss, though it's not like I wasn't somewhat entertained by the hijinks with Vanitas and Jeanne having this physical revelation and reaction to love; honestly I just couldn't care much for this episode as it felt like nothing particularly productive was happening this time around up til the last scene. Seems like they're rushing into the next arc without much padding to work with. What a shame. This adaptation has run itself to the ground too much to where the damage will not be mitigated enough, and I sense an anime original ending from how things look so far....*sighs* another Pandora Hearts anime situation. |
 |
| These slice of life/chill episodes are always enjoyable for me. Both of them are cute but the cliffhanger with Domi was very unexpected |
 |
| mostly of this episode is hilarious comedy about Vanitas & Jeanne realizing about falling in love with the other lolz! 5/5. |

| Tbh this anime works the best as a comedy and romance. Who needs some weak action when we have this lol |
| Vanitas is in denial while Jean is boldly being proud about it lol. decent episode that end kinda killed the vibes though. |
kazziam said: I got a question and it will be great if someone can answer . Why cant Vanitas cure Jeanne ? It is not told outright, but from the information that we have got so far, we can deduce that: 1. Vanitas does not know whether or not Jeanne is a curse-bearer. We don't either. 2. Vanitas needs to know the True Name of the vampire he cures. But Jeanne doesn't seem to have a visible malnomen (if she is a curse-bearer), and because of Ruthven's curse, she can't tell Vanitas her True Name (aaand she doesn't know Ruthven cursed her in the first place). So the situation is a bit more complex than "Vanitas should just cure Jeanne". I hope this helped! |
|
| Vanitas at the table w/Roland and Olivier was priceless. WTH is happening to Domi! |
| This was so cute and funny omg xD Love the love relationship between Vanitas and Jeanne, who dont know anything, they're so cute <3 |
| What’s going on with Domi |
 |
| Love That pretty much sums up the episode!!!! It was funny seeing this whole new side of Vanitas. He was flustered the whole time, as it's his first time experiencing something like this!!!! Anyways it was really fun watching the two of em. The ending was interesting. Can't wait to see what happens next!! |
| Vanitas x Jeanne is so forced even the characters themselves can't understand it. Overall, a so-so episode for me. Comedy was indeed good but if I'm being honest here, I only cared about Domi since I have missed her a lot. Oh, and screw that kid, btw. |
what a smile ، i'm in love more than ever  |
| What a cute episode. ;u; I'm still lowkey shipping Vanitas and Noe, but this is fine too. We'll see how it all goes. These characters are all cute as hell. |
| Poor Vanitas. Jeanne's a beast. Why Domi gotta suffer like this. |
 |
| That ending, though! Did not expect to see a white-haired and even shorter Edward Elric here. |
| The poor shota getting unrequited love |
| Inhales oxygen |
