| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- "Mayday, Mayday - We're goin' down"... Man, is this series ever going into crash-and-burn mode fast. Not only was episode 9 badly directed and poorly animated, they introduced yet another character for no good reason. What a shame - the premise for the series seemed to have such good potential. Oh well, only 4 episodes of pain left. |

| As long as I hear Takatsuki's odd voice, I'm content, but the episode was pretty boring to me. All I'm hoping for now is some sort of kiss, but I doubt that there will be one... |

| well i was wondering where this plot was going, so now they explain what the asura cryin' thing is about; so will tomo get together with takatsuki? |
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures  |
| o_o well ... its an okay episode ... some funny parts only and the rest not so interesting |
     |
| I agree with the consensus, but really...what is there in this show that would lead anyone to believe that the novels are any good? Especially since other people have come in and talked about the random time skips in the series being apart of the novels also. But at least they manged to deifine Asura Cryin...3/4 of the way into the show. |
| Oh snap! a cliffhanger ending. |
 |
| It was ok, all these characters are getting outta hand though. Soon Imma have to start looking over bios just to see who's who and their importance to the story. 4 epds left, doesn't look like this is gonna end on a high note but we'll see. |

I guess what you said, i have to agree 100% i mean each episode dont link together, each one being completly random. hopefully the last 4 episodes will be a bit better. |
 |
| This is starting to suck ass lol. It's getting less interesting, messy, corny and stupid face guitar. |
 |
| Maybe they assume that we the audience have already read the novels, so no need to explain anything clearly... As to noteDhero's comment I've read chapter one that Chihiro translated and it seems alot more informative and I'm eager to read the next chapter... |
| I just like how random it is :p Even the theme song which I love has lyrics talking about logic crumbling away. It will probably be the wierdest anime I've ever watched. |
| One positive thing is the guitar song. that caught my attention ^^ |
|
| Ugh...yeah, another character pops into the series with no explanation... This series is god awful. Where's the plot? Where the hell is it even going? I can't even follow its randomness. Thankfully only a few episodes of this is left. |
 |
noteDhero said: But at least they manged to deifine Asura Cryin...3/4 of the way into the show. God, now that I'm this far, I might as well see it to the end. Such a terrible episode. Highly frustrating to watch. Tomoharu is pathetic. |
Dsrtstorm said: Glad to see I'm not the only one who is thinking this show is crap this far in. yeah me2 =( I was hoping it would be good, but now most of the characters annoy me and the animation is weird, and the story doesn't make a lot of sense to me x_x |

Dsrtstorm said: Glad to see I'm not the only one who is thinking this show is crap this far in. i'm rather close to wanting to drop this show, but since i've invested too much time already i figure i should stick it out.... god how i can't wait for this show to end |
 |
| Nice episode, it's all starting to make some sense now, a little at least. They're are still some confusing things, like, what does the he-female that used to be Shuri's friend and whatever that thing that's with her is, have to do with all of it. But, It's actually seeming like they're could be a good ending out of it now, idk, just have to wait and see...Urahara Out!! Sent with Mal Updater |

What a shame - the premise for the series seemed to have such good potential. Oh well, only 4 episodes of pain left. I agree, it was pretty interesting and good intill like ep 6 or 7 it started to go bad, i really hate flashbacks. Soon after ep 7, 8, and 9.. were even worse than the last. this anime isn't going to finish well, to be honest i think they just got lazy. |
| What a bore... so much for the cliff-hunger from last episode. Tomo finally summoned Kurogane and it didn't do much :/ |
    |
| This series is going down like a crashing plane...damn that was a boring ep... i found myself skipping a few scenes, previous eps were better...also the story is soooo slow.... the writing in this ep is meh... it's not a habit of mine to drop a show but maybe.......... |
 Why don't you show me your so called "justice" - Hakumen |
| I was reminded of Spiral also...and I seem to be equally disappointed with the way this is turning out. |
| Why hasn't anyone died yet. |
| This shit is so bad that I have no idea why the hell I'm still watching it... God. |
 Felli disapproves of this thread. |
| Asura Cryin, I finally understand what it is.. As the popular trend goes, the light-element guys are unpopular and are considered as hypocrites, while the dark-element guys are the heroes. Honestly, I think Reishirou would make a better protagonist but.. I guess people are most interested in the ecchi journey of Tomo-chan as opposed to the boring idealistic quest of the Holy Council exterminating evil which seems no more than the work of a typical hypocrite as that Reishirou also uses an Asura Machina. There is going to be a second season? I am guessing that Naoto, the elder brother of Tomoharu will be making an appearance as another Handler, possibly an Asura Cryin. Looking forward to it.. |
 |
| was it really tht bad? i foudn it kinda interesting since they exlained what asura crying is. and so i suppose tomoharu will become one and fight with the other. |
     |
| waaa~omoshiroi~.yep,yep*nods* its getting more interesthing with every ep. i think that its not confusing at all now. |
 |
| Pretty meh again, this anime sure develops quite weirdly.. |
