THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------

This episode was a lot better than the last few episodes, both animation wise and story wise. The animation seems to have got better, which is good because Zero now looks more normal. XD

The episode followed the manga very closely, and if the next episode does as well, I'll be looking forward to it. :D

It was a pretty good episode, especially compared to the last few. I guess it wasn't just me who thought the animation was better in parts of the episode.

I also think that it animation was better but not best, I think it can be better. I want Zero to look more normal like in the mangaXD I liked that episode because I like that fiction and manga^^ Just as I thought, Shizuka Hiou's hair is pure white but I like her crimson eyes. And I think seiyuus are have difficult job. Because the voice of Aidou wasn't similar for me compared to Kei from Special A. But while Zero and Aidou were talking that sounded similar.

Don't you think that Maria Kurenai smiles irritatingly and always jumpsXD I'm looking forward for the next episode, there will be more action and eventXD I thought that Kaname tells İchijou to take care of Maria earlier but this episode I haven't seen him much:/ And did anyone notice in the opening theme that Maria Kurenai has appeared?

Agree on everything. Best episode so far, Maria is an awesome character who opens a lot of possibilities for the series.

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

Oh how I love Nakahara Mai's voice, that alone made this episode enjoyable!

But it was good overall anyway, I enjoyed it.

They already changed the opening a bit... At the end of the last episode Maria was wearing awesome red and black striped socks, but for this episode she didn't have them! I was so shocked, I loved them! Maria isn't as great as she was in the manga, though I did love her little theme music in the background. Shiki got a few lines, which also makes me happy and the animation was good for the whole episode. The chocolate pocky scene was funny X)

There is something i did not get at all about this show : Why do Vampires attend school?

Can anyone explain?

And with Maria things really start to get interesting. :3 Loved this episode, especially the three going out into daylight. Yuuki being mobbed was hilarious!

Zero looked tons better this episode. The animation quality could still be better, but it was relatively good this time around. And yay, some screentime for... Maria's friend. XD I don't want to spoil anything, heheh.

Can't wait for the dance... and what comes after. :3

Quit the nagging about the animation quality already >.> It's about discussing the episode and what happened, not discussing the animation quality.

Ichijou~senpai! =D He should appear more often. Liked the Aidou parts where he makes all those girls jealous xD How original, an transfer student who causes trouble ~cough~. More Kaname~kun, please! Looking forward to the ball~ =D

The animation is part of the episode, whether you like it or not. And this is a discussion topic, so people are free to express their opinions about everything that in this episode. (:

I really hate how they draw and animate Yuuki. It really makes her look plain and dumb. And she, first, shouldn't look plain. However, Maria is a pleasant surprise. She's even better than I imagined... animation, voice, look, everything. She's the first vampire that looks elegant, radiant and everything else mangaka intended.

I think the funniest part of the episode was Kaname's hair. I couldn't stop laughing for about 15 minutes after I've seen it.

yeah her hair is weird..is it like tied in a knot in front or something? @_@(from now on i'll refer to this emoticon as yuuki eyes lol)

i just LOOOOVE that scene where aidou refers to her with an impolite "omae" and she hovers toward him saying "ne, kimi..." god, that evil tone masked in an innocent question just makes me want to go rena on her. "omochikaeriiii!~"

I always like seeing the different vampire characters (Ichijou's adorable and Aidou's pretty fun), but Maria took my enjoyment of this episode down a notch. She's kind of annoying (especially that hairstyle ...). Then again, if the spoilers I hear are true ... well, I'll be looking forward to one thing at least.

Wow, that was a really good episode. I had thought Kurenai Maria was the woman that they were referring to in previous episodes, but it turns out that she’s not. I wouldn’t be surprised if Hiou Shizuka is the woman that Kaname is referring to in that scene near the end.I wonder what he’s planning because it sounds like he’s trying to lure whoever he was referring to to the school by gathering all those pieces.

And the person who looked extremely like Zero in the end, could that maybe be his younger brother? It just may be, :)

Humm... I liked this ep... it was far more alive than all those before. Maria might be an evil one, but she gives a better view over VK vampires... until recently, the only alive in the Night Class was Idou-sempai... also, aparently she maked things move a little, which can be only awesome. *heading for next ep*
