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

Ah, so

I have to say, the VA for Otoha isn't very good. Especially the last when he chopped up the blade guy.

So why is there multiple people (Two others, one with pink hair and the other inside some chamber) who look like Yurine?

As I understand it ... Yurine is the Youkai priestess that gives Karas/Otoha his power. The other priestess like Yurine is, at this point in the story, neutral between karas and otou and the girl with her must be her human/warrior. I'm guessing they come into play a little later. And (this is just a guess at this point) the third one in the chamber is a priestess that Otou holds captive in order to steal his evil warrior powers.

I didn't think the voice actor (or seiyu if you want to know that I'm talking about the original voice) for Otoha was bad, it was the voice for Yurine that got on my nerves which is a shame because I like the design. =)

The dual gun guy is a pretty interesting character, and his entrance was epic! That last demon was creepy as hell.

Good to get more and more of what's going on, though still not enough. It's great to see that each episode is getting more serious.

Awesome animation as usual.

Cool action.

Story is slowly making sense.

I like that at least the Karas of the other city (or how they manage that, they talked about territory..) wants to help, even if the Yurine has her reasons not to. It also seems that Otahas Yurine noticed the other two watching,

More often then not, they ever never meet, they "main" guardian doesn't notice the other(s), or the hate each other etc.

I also actually like Yurine's voice.

This episode was a bit confusing again, with who's where and stuff, but nice to see they are making progress, with whatever they are doing there.

Man, what complex fight scenes this anime has! And things are somewhat clearing up, though there are still so many mysteries to unveil..

Dem bodies.

One thing I will mention in this show is the thrilling like atmosphere. The countdown during that nurse scene is one of them and I suspect this complex of a story plot to unravel itself soon.

People going on about things making more sense, but I feel like I'm more confused than ever. What exactly is Yurine? Who the hell is Yurine? Is it a title given to those girls who make people turn in Karas (the Kamen Rider samurai)?

If so, then shit's making more sense. There was also a "Yurine" in that big boiler which Ekou peeked into. Oh shit. It's making more sense.

Now that I got that out of the way...................



JESUS CHRIST THOSE FIGHTS HAHAHAHAHA
Fighting with a sword not enough? Let's transform into a mini FIGHTER JET. SHIT. It may be way cornier than HELLSING OVA because of the whole kamen thing, BUT THIS SURE IS BETTER BECAUSE THERE'S NO RETARDED SHIT.

And holy shit, I decided to check this Satou Keiichi guy. Turns out he directed Bahamut. Oh my god. Mythbusted.

I'm sorry but this shit is all over the place, demons, transformers, cars, gunbattles, jets and three omnious girls. Jesus, who thought this was a good idea putting into one series without any explanation.

I'm out.

dropped

edit: but the animation is damn fine!

great twist there with Karas having a real body, that's why the detective dude was investigating the hospitals, eko was hunting down otoha with the help of corrupt police chiefs. Yurine's voice is kinda annoying but the weird countdown is cool

The central story is starting to form, even though certain things remain confusing for me.

Well this episode had the best battle so far and was less confusing than the previous ones so that's a win in my book.
Still far from explaining everything but at least it didn't confuse me further by introduced more unexplained things.

Too much (dark and confusing) action in this one IMO. So the Eko guy has another Yurine powering him up. And the new girl as well.

Dang, that's one nasty way to die. It's a good thing he was in a coma when he was eaten. He only had to experience suffering for a few secs.

Cool ep. Lots of decent fights. He can transform into a jet and a batmobile. How cool is that?

Hmm, the other Yurine got taken away? oh, that's what that girl meant about another Yurine. Interesting.
