Maya being kind towards a kid was a little surprising.
And helping the little poltergeist move on might be hard, kids can be hard to understand.
And it seems like she came from a troubled family, it must have been very hard for her dad to support her.

Now I'm starting to think there really will be a season 2 for this show, after seeing the preview for ep 10.

Even if the would rush everything, they still wouldn't have time to conclude the plot in the remaining 3 episodes.

This isn't the only anime this season that brings to mind that question.
HSOD and Ookami also appear to be to slow passed to fit into just one season.

No, now I seriously wonder how they'll end it. Doubt it'll be very nice, story-wise. They probably find the key coincidentally in the last episode and reveal that it was right before their noses all along. The end. >_>

Haven't seen much of this organization Bunmei came from. Not since episode one.

This is a bit random- But am I the only one who finds Mikazes interruptions just a tad to well timed? Maybe just me but she seems to interfere at the ideal moment each time, like trying to keep them separate.

Well unless they do have something planned up their sleve for a way to end this well id hope for a season 2, but I wouldnt put much money down if i was going to gamble on it. As for HSotD thats an on going manga , unless they plan to end the manga soon there would have to be a season 2 or it just ends at a cliff hanger aka Berserk style (only a bit more manga loyal then Berserk)

I was hoping that they'd get on with the plot with this episode. Maya doesn't really any more 'development' to make her more generic. Next episdoe better be a lead in into some development for the actual plot.

Even though it doesn't seem like the main plot, there could be a chance that it all leads up.

Aren't most of the problems involving the vice principal? Always spying on Maya like with the Mothman, and those green things, Cupracabra or something, and now she just summoned a spirit to create a new problem.

Someone that suspicious couldn't summoned the wrong spirit by accident o.o.

Ouija boards are naughty, don't try them at home, they're one of the scariest things you could be faced with.
(traumatised from primary school) :o

The little girl in red is ultra creepy (I thought so from the start); watch the film 'Don't look now' and you'll know what I'm on about. ; )
Still, pless her.

Old news maybe, aswell as a matter of opinion, yet the character design is very pretty within this anime, I have watched countless seriese, yet it's nice to get a break from dot noses, giant eyes and beachball boobies (present in most modern anime).
Even the males don't look like girls; Smile has to be one of the best looking anime males to date, whilst JK is cute in a pupy type way.
Still loving the facial expressions too.; )

Isn't Bunmei sick of curry by now?
Obviously he is, and his ladyfriend isn't a good cook. :p
(I have a feeling she's dodgy?)

Great episode, 5/5.
Continuation too.

I too am worried about this... hopefully it works itself out.

And I think Maya is definitely crushing ;)

It seems like Maya and Akari had a similar past of sorts; should turn out interesting (i think)

JK was so random (but funny lol) this episode. Fumiaki wasn't his usual idiotic self (though I think Mikaze still has too much power over him xP)

and I seriously hope they end the fillers soon, or at least somehow incorporate this arc into the main story.

Screenshots :D

I can't figure out why she's getting so irritated about him hanging out with the waitress instead of her....? It seems like it's more than him neglecting the Nostradamus key search, because she's not searching much herself.

It is more like, me and my issues are hell more important than some bouncy waitress behind whom you follow like a dog. Cannot imagine any romantic relation...must be a possessive friendship.

Most probably the father was bust at work whilst his daughter froze to death....or maybe something less cliche.

This episode may look like a filler, but I still cannot rule out the possibility of it being related to the main plot yet.

Maya and Bunmei kept saying that the spirit was nothing to do with the Nostradamus key. They did not even bother using the phone to take pictures like how they usually did. So this can easily turn out to be the other way around.

And there are only 3 more episodes left!! The plot needs to be advanced somehow.

Wow, she pronounced "ouija" how it's spelled.... lol

Omg, Maya smiled!

Akari is really cute.

"HNGAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I just figured it out."



And then, on a totally different note, I almost cried when she sat down outside her door and said "It's cold..."


Mikaze is annoying.

4.5/5 for this episode, but I really don't like that it's only gonna be 13 eps... they're kinda dropping the ball by adding a 2-part this late... especially since it has nothing to do with the plot : /

LOL... awesome. That part made me laugh, caught me completely offguard.

I don't know, yeah this doesn't seem like it's contributing to an overall plot but then again I thought the whole alien invasion, world's ending, search for Nostradamus' key was lame anyway. I much prefer what we've been getting the entire run of the series because I like most of the characters and the episodes have been for the most part entertaining and interesting. This is no exception, I was waiting for the shoe to drop when they brought the kid home and was not disappointed. Kind of funny how surprised the group seemed when they told the father "Hey, so we did a seance and your dead kid..." How the heck else is he supposed to react I wonder?

Mikaze is annoying, I second/third/whatever that. Everything with her seems like something out of a dating sim and she's such an empty character. I hope there's some payoff, like she's a flesh eating alien or something.

Bunmei is totally useless in this episode but since he done some petty job last week,I guess as a gentlemen, I should forgive him this week
Well at least this episode has a bit of character development on Maya herself .I wonder what happen to Maya in the past??It seem that Maya's past is somewhat similar to Akari's......Does this mean that Maya doesn't want the same thing happen to Akari as well??...but Akari is dead -_-"

Do I have to wait till the last episode for them to show the main plot.... ~.~

I think this episode is good by itself, but considering we are nearing the end of the show, I'm starting to wonder how this show is going to wrap up.

Didn't expected a two episode arc, although i guess i should have. Yeah, fitting all the plot into the last three episodes like usual. Abe-sensei is actually more annoying than a typical male lead at times but thankfully a lot more entertaining to watch.

Maya's jealousy is curious indeed.

I don't blame Akari-chan one bit. If given the chance, I'd be all over Smile too! LOL! Maya is starting to work a nerve. She HATES Bunmei, she should be glad that he's not around. Instead, she seems annoyed and jealous that he's choosing the waitress over her.

Only 4 eps left. I don't understand how they're going to wrap this up in such a short amount of time. They must be planning a season 2.
