Toki and Nenene reunion. That was appealing imo and somewhat cute.

Overall, I found this episode to be meh but it was nice to see some of Sakura's history as well as more of Rui. Speaking of which, we finally get to see Rui's shadow technique! What a boss. That ending was sick also.

Yuuki's lost form = cat is so cute.

SuzuKen's character left because he cares about his sister more than his own father.

Wow, so optimistic about being adapted?! But she's so against someone being dead because of the past.

Interesting talk between Yuuki in lost form and that blue hair code:breaker, who lost her family when young, too.

Investigating ex-code:breaker, and the staff not believing the teacher agent just because she worked for ex-code:breaker before.

Sempai code:breaker is a traitor! She's so innocent and led herself got into trap.

You spin me right round, baby right round like a record, baby Right round round round


The Good:

- Rui is drawn very gangly in the anime and I think it suits the character better then how that Code:Breaker is drawn in the manga.

- The art is generally good and holds the same quality as in the previous episode.

- Heike's actions. It is Good because it changes something and makes room for some VERY big changes if they ever make a second season.


The Bad:

- Rui is as whiny as in the manga... if Rui could even be half as manry as Sakura I would be happy.

- What the hell was that scene with Nenene and Toki about? It makes NO sense since she shouldn't be able to act like that. Did they just change something REALLY important in the anime?

- Yuuki isn't a jerk in his lost form?!? (he always is in the manga when a cat)

- Heike's actions (more on this when episode 9 has aired).


The Ugly:

- Important screentime is wasted on filler material and it was mostly an 'explainasode'.

- Sakura's armpushing(?) with that member of her Yakuza family. He shouldn't have been able to push her arms back at all unless he has monstrous strength but here in the anime they seemed evenly matched?

- The Code:Numbers searching for Hitomi the normal way instead of Heike just locating him using Eden's Database seems very pointless.

Guess that's a nail to a coffin...Simply the ugliest episode so far for me.

I mean, firstly, they clearly CHANGE RUI'S PAST! Hitomi was the one who cheered her up!? And her "Shadow" ability. She can never block Heike's attack because she's holding the bridge and that car? Hilarious. Her shadow isn't that petty. She doesn't have the second name of "Graceful God Guardian" for nothing, dammit. Unless she lost her power, I don't see any reason why she wouldn't be able to block Heike's attack there. As long as she has some shadow around her, she should be able to ward Heike's attack off. >:S

Second, how Sakura was adopted is utterly...wrong...I mean, Shibuya was the one who left her with the Sakurakoujis. They decided to leave the whole thing about Shibuya out of the anime, do they?

Third, Nenene...I don't get WHAT THE FUCKING HELL IS THIS ABOUT!?



And...Heike...WHAT THE FUCK!


And as I thought, they throw Rui-Heike's interaction into the rubbish dump. Heike will NEVER compliment Rui, even under that circumstance. He hates her.

She might be lying. As for her powers to block Heike I'd say she would need ALL her strength.

Some English subbers seem crazy, they want to translate everything at the same time, but surely they can't take care of all those releases. In my native language it was subbed on Sunday.

At least Sakura isn't as annoying as she was in the beginning. If she were as annoying now as she was back then I would have dropped this show by now.

I felt that way after the 1st episode lol.

Come on! Why would she believe Oogami was looking for her anyway? I mean he left her in the first place (so he probably had a general idea of her location), he has never looked for her before, he was never concerned for her personal safety and why would he be concerned about Hitomi finding her if his power can't hurt her in the first place. Sakurakouji smh, a little doubt/thinking would do her some good.

Ya, I wasn't that much into this episode, but it's not bad at least. I'm thinking I might pick up the manga for this too since the anime seems to be straying off from it quite a bit.

Yea it really is getting weak at the beginning it was so badass but now it's like any other story plot nothing exciting is happening, Heike could have at least beat up Sakura a bit so their could of been some exiting tension between him and Ogami, so when they finally do fight there would be an even more dramatic battle.

Heike was expected/10

Neko!Yuuki was pretty cute. Is Rui a guy or a girl again?

Ogami tries too hard to be a badass. He needs to open up his heart a little!

Sakura is becoming less annoying actually...but then she ruins it later when she's alone with Ogami.

Wonder what's gonna happen next. Will Hitomi except Heike into his crew? Will the other code breakers stand a chance going against the original 1 and 2? We'll find out!

lol I suddenly came up with a random theory~
Code 01 and 02 betrayed the others because they would fight against the government and it's ways~ and the other Code breakers would join with them after learning this. xD

or Heike just lied and temporarily teamed up with 01...

Honestly thought she was just a girly looking guy, due to being either really flat chested or the coat covering up the titties.

Not a manga reader and still not liking the anime very much, enough to keep watching. I've kinda lost most motivation for the show. I've gotten to the point where I've started skimming.

Hell, I wouldn't be surprise if that dog that keeps following Sakura starts shooting beams from its eyes.

well suspecting the prime minister; whether his actions are truly correct---or not. i do not believe that heike's betrayal is wrong, i seem to wonder that code 01 hitomi actually has the reason to turn what everyone seems 'bad' when he actually realises that he is either: 1, being used to destroy the world or some sort, or 2, to prevent the creation of rare species or 3, the creation of artificial code breakers...argh!

Considering how whiny Rui is, it should have been a given. Not that girls are whiny, only that anime tend to make them extremely so at times. It makes no sense in her case either. She is supposed to be a woman that decided to be manly, but instead she is more of a "Nadesicco" type. She is way to emotional and not in a "cool way". In such a sense she is a faux action girl. Sure she can fight but she acts so boringly "female" I just want to strangle her. She's just fan service.

I mean why would they put a traitor in the group pic at the end of the ED?

I thought she was a trap lol.

First time I saw her I was like "Oh look, a trap!" ;D

Now I can rest easy whenever she's on-screen now though.
