| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Dat talking cat. This arc just keeps getting more and more weird. For Suzuka though, I think she should appreciate people more. That bath scene was priceless though. |
 |
| That ending! Finally he knows! Masaka indeed! I hope things can progress between them now. I've been waiting for this since the 2nd episode... anticipation can be good! |
| Finally ! Things should get really dark interesting from now on. |
| Awesome episode.Can't wait for next one. |
 |
| That was quite the serious ep. I thought it might just be comedy or something. So nice to see the plot and characters moving :D Natsume and Harutora's reactions to seeing Suzuka was so lol XD The familiars doing chores was lol XD Suzuka was so cute throughout the ep. Esp the hotspring scene. She's already found out about Natsume=Hokuto and is even being considerate for her. She's such a tsundere. Acting all tough but actually caring about Natsume's feelings. Suzuka is so much <3 Loved Suzuka's conversation with Touji. Nice seeing Touji having complete control over his first phase of the Oni mode. Interesting to know it was Suzuka's dad who controlled this Oni. More indicating it's not a normal Oni. Youjo loving senpai was so lol XD...Loved how Harutora was provoking her with Kon hahahaha...Kon was so kawaiii <3 and how she totally gave up was really funny XDXDXD Nice going there Harutora hahaha Natsume was really cute in the bed scene with her bakatora. Anywa, finally Harutora is on the way to figure it out. At last. I wonder how he'll interact with Natsume nxt ep. Or will he keep it hidden for now? Touji and Natsume listening to Kyouko, Suzuka and Harutora's conversation about Hokuto was a nice touch too. Loved Touji's expression. Well I keep hearing it's gonna get awesome from here on. Can't wait :D |
 |
| Woah all of those familiars doing work. Took Harutora long enough to figure it out. |
 |
| Hopefully, this shows that he figured it out, for a dense guy he is. |

| I don't think Harutora actually knows yet, he's still doubting himself. Being as dense as he is I doubt he'll actually find out unless Natsume tells him the truth herself. I wonder when we'll get the reveal where Kyouko finds and Harutora was the kid from her childhood. |
 |
| well took him long enough lol also seems like things are about to get serius ;P |
| Like robots? Then watch getter robot :D |
| I'm glad the idea finally cross his mind :3 |
| You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams~ |
| I see that no one started this topic so : 1. The conversation between Kurahashi and Yasuzumi ...Kurahashi said that one of his (Yasuzumi) familiar took care of one of her students ,so in my mind can mean only Touji so here comes, Harutora's dad it's actually Yasuzumi's familiar :|. 2. If 1 is true then who is Harutora? is he really from a branch family? who are his parents ?? Edit: I just thought that he can be a real familiar like Harutora but if he is not like that :-?? |
 note: Psychopath is my name on a Game so this sig is mine . no copy/paste :) |
| Another good epiosde All dat foreshadowing. It's interesting that it was Touji who asked Suzuka about her father and Two Horn, but it makes sense considering what happened to him. I really like how Suzuka's development is being handled here. Now we have a new element here Yakou's Raven Coat which can somehow identify who truly is Yakou. If Natsume gets this she maybe able to clear her doubts. Fiji said: Hopefully, this shows that he figured it out, for a dense guy he is. Is he really that dense? Everyone in this episode stated they found hard to believe anyone could control a familair like that. Harutora's reasons for not knowing Hokuto is pretty legitimate given the circumstances. Furthermore unlikely your average MC he learned about mid season on his own opposed to the end of show. His doubt isn't unwanted since aside from a few traits Natsume and Hokuto really don't act much alike. |

| Wow, I feel like baka-Tora. I didn't realize until this episode Natsume was Hokuto. I thought Hokuto was just Natsume's dragon in human form. |
| Oh, Harutora is finally starting to catch on. Great episode!!! |
 |
| Oh dam, that ending, about time. Suzuka is still best girl. |

| Wow Harutora is dimmer than a 2 watt bulb not to realise Natsume was Hokuto. |
greebo said: Wow Harutora is dimmer than a 2 watt bulb not to realise Natsume was Hokuto. The funny thing about this statement is a lot of audience didn't realize the truth Hokuto either despite fact unlike Harutora their have omnipotent perspective. So what does that say about them? |
| Man I'm reallyl oving this series. 10/10 It's 2-cour woot. Baka Tora finally figuring somethign out. Also Natsume X Tora OTP pls |
 |
| Dairenji was cute this episode. Lawl he finally noticed. |
| It's about time Baka-tora haha :D The exchange between Baka-tora and loli senpai was hilarious. Senpai wants to take Kon home ahaha. Well Kon's adorable as always. Who wouldn't want to touch that tail?! Ahh Suzuka was cute. More dere please. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| I'm happy about Harutora, he finally realized it about Hokuto and Natsume. Next episode will be new story arc Black Shaman ASSAULT and it looks like the next episode will be aired on 7 Jan due to holidays. EDIT: removed my remark since the original spoiler post no longer exists. |

| It finally happened. Bakatora finally realized. |
| Awesome episode. Harutora is finally putting the pieces together. |
| Wow, he finally uses some brain cells. :D |

| Pretty good setup episode, just like the balance of the comedy and drama in here. Those familiars look quite difficult to train them. LOL they are relief that Suzuka is not going to that training camp, until she arrive ahead of them XD. Needs more information about this Twin Horn Syndicate and Yakou stuff. Looks like Harutora finally realizes about the ribbon Natsume is wearing... |
| SONO MASAKA, Harutora-kun.... |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| Next week means no more X-encounter. :( |
| Well this episode answers more about my questions about Suzuka's feelings for Bakatora. Looks like Natsume may not be the Yakou descendent. And after 11 episodes Bakatora finally realize who Hokuto is. |
| The dense guy finally figured it out. |
 |
| Bakatora finally realizes it. Oh god.. what took him so long? Mod Edit: Removed quote of a deleted post. |

| to confess or not to confess ive seem enough anime o know that isnt a question :| and it only took him about a dozen eps to notice the ribbon thats anime dense MC progress |
niknasr said: Correct me if I'm wrong but I heard there is 4 more volumes of light novel to cover? Is it true? Yes you're correct. Episodes 1-12 covered till volume 5 of LN. Episodes 13-24 will cover volume 6-9 and it looks like each volume will be covered in 3 episodes. Next arc is Black Shaman ASSAULT. Good news. Looks like someone translated part of Volume 1 LN. First 2 chapters of Volume 1 is out on Baka-tsuki. I hope the translations continue in a long run. |

rraannddoo said: finally, took him long enough, as Natsume's familiars name wasn't obvious enough and the same phrase they used. Probably don't know how she feels even if she confessed to him straight on. Um did you missed the episode? He told Kyouko that he knew Hokuto liked him from her confession, but didn't know if he himself felt the same way. Harutora had also already asked Natsume about the dragon and she told a half-truth. He trusts her a lot that's why he took her word for it. If Harutora was really that dense she wouldn't have to go this far just to trick him. |

| No matter how cliche this anime, I rather like it. And too slow Harutora. |

RazorRamona200 said: I wonder if that "Partnership" that Touji was referring to Shizuka about was that he wants to be her familiar? He wants her help in dealing with Two Horn. |
| dat end !! aüdkcoawömawic,kymfah´0vriaw0fcjhõafahw0nõaw!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Harutora I hope he realized the truth or will find out about it.. really hope Harutora and Natsume will hook up.. |
 |
| Gosh, it's about time! Seriously!! Took him long enough to get that simple idea! SUZUKA FTW in this episode! She was beyond cute here! Still rooting for her!! Come on, she and Harutora had their first kiss with each other! Might as well get together! lol |

| Suzuka is a little out of hands... On the other hand, hell yeah for my loli senpai. I like Suzuka x Touji even if it is unlikely. Bakatora is not bakatora anymore... Thank's God, he realized... |
 |
| Harutora bravo. You have broken the norm of dense protagonists. Seriously bravo |
 |
| Decent episode. And finally after reaching half the show, Harutora used his brain. |
 |
| This is honestly one of the best episodes thus far in terms of clarity and content. I agree with someone's speculation above that Harutora is the real Yakou. After all, it was Harutora who saw memory fragments of Yakou when Suzuka's spell was broken up way earlier in the series. Given that plot is usually not straightforward anyway, it makes sense for the author to bait the readers with a presumable Yakou (Natsume) while holding off the reveal. But as the plot unfolds, I'm looking forward to Harutora figuring things out with Natsume. Sure, Harutora is kind of dense, but he certainly isn't dumb. |
| I found Natsume's ability to reduce and grow her boobs at her will very fascinating... Anyway, good episode, looks like Harutora is not that much of a idiot after all.. Also Touji is by far my favorite character so far, not only he has a great sense of sarcasm but he also looks extremely baddas in ogre form... cool as fuck if you ask me |
