| Hmm, I wonder how did Shoko know Satou actually living at room 1208? In episode 7 Satou only bring Shoko to room 305 to meet her aunt isn't it? |
| Newbie :P |
kokomomo6 said: Agreed. Lame conflicts just for the sake of plot and tension. Most info are just dumped in your face without real development or build up. But the stupidest thing is how unreasonable everything is. The show thinks that having everyone be a psycho is cool. It's not. Well said... I’m in complete agreement. |

| I kind of enjoyed Shoko's death, since it's still a story and the creator did this for a reason. I do feel sad since their friendship is now completely destroyed and how it hurts Satou. Anyway I think killing her was a bad move. Now there's probably going to have an investigation. There's a lot Satou could've done to deceive Shoko. Shio is obviously very close to Satou so she could've said something like she was protecting Shio from Asahi or just anything and that would've been believable. But of course either way an investigation would be started I suppose. I'm just confused how Shoko was outside her apartment, which she shouldn't know where it is, and how her phone camera was open ready to take a picture so that she can catch Shio hugging Satou outside. That just doesn't make sense. |

| .............damn, it's now official that Satou is beyond saving, that ultimate betrayal 0__0 Satou has fully embraced the dark side. |

| And there goes best girl... Screw you, Satou. |

| Probably the biggest episode so I'll write a longer post than usual. I like the show better than I thought I would. Asahi & Mitsuboshi's scene was good. Paced well, executed well, Mitsuboshi's meltdown was consistent and believable. Asahi's monologue after that was even better. Asahi & Shouko's scene wasn't that good, despite being cute(and sad) as fuck from a shipper's perspective. Felt rushed, overdramatic(unrealistically) and all in all a bit jarring. Satou & Shio's scenes from 11~18 were decent, could have been better but functioned well as buildup scenes. Shio's lines on the couch about baking cakes were rhythmic and meshed well with the music, impressive moment Shouko's arc(as in the past few episodes) was handled well. Remember, she isn't a sweetie sweet innocent girl, I read her character as another one who desperately seeks love and attention, and needs to be in control; and in her case she attempted to pour love and attention to get her portion of it in return, first to the boys, next to Satou and finally to Asahi. The former didn't respond satisfyingly, but the latter did, or at least she manipulated him to do. Not a particularly complex character, but her character shift and actions are all easily rationally acceptable in the viewer's perspective, and credit should be given to the author. Not to say that the scenes this episode were particularly impressive. Creative screenwriting that does leave an impression, but not sure that was the most effective way to work the story. Song was mediocre at best and the narration wasn't as powerful as the producers would have liked it to be. |

Also, the teachers might call home before all that when she doesn't show up to school. The walls are indeed closing in around Satou |

| R.I.P Shouko, you were too sane for this batshit show. |
| Wow, the only likable character gets killed. RIP. I didn't think we'd actually see the scene of how it happened tho. Curious to know what happens next! |
| oh my goodness I CAN'T BELIEVE SHE ACTUALLY DID THAT?!?! Shoko is such a sweet friend, I really thought she would be the one to help Satou through this if anything but to think Satou really doesn't give a single shit about her "BEST FRIEND" is insane...at least she was able to somehow send the picture though but still..that death scene was way too much for me, im so upsettttttttttt! |

AhmedHan said: But I don't understand, exactly at which moment, Shouko was able to send that message to Asahi? If she sent it while she was still outside, was she lying to Satou-chan all the time inside the house about not going to the police or about how she was her best friend? Notice that after taking the photo of Shio and Satou... Shouko was pushing buttons really quickly on her phone, just before Satou grabbed her. |

SquishyAngel said: Am I the only one who was genuinely happy?? I'd like for this anime to have a Satou x Shio happy psycopath crazy end as wrong as that is I was happy too. Shouko was a good girl indeed, but she was trying to do too much for her on good. I don't know why people hate Satou. She treats Shiou super well and she rescued her from whatever was happening to her at the time. She could give Shiou to the police, but it's not 100% sure that Shiou would have a better life if things went that route. Everyone that Satou killed until this point deserved and Satou is very hard working. So...why the hate? People here are as crazy as the character they say they hate. Shiou's fucking brother is broken too. How the hell her life with him would be better? It doesn't seem he has a job so i'm pretty sure her life with Satou is much much better than it would be with her dumb brother. I doubt many people here thought about this. Shiou's mother couldn't handle her abusive husband and the children suffered because of it. I have the impression that she was not treating Shiou that well too. I want to know how the mother died too. imouto said: oh my goodness I CAN'T BELIEVE SHE ACTUALLY DID THAT?!?!

People are talking about Shouko being Satou's best friend, but Satou said it herself...she didn't see Shouko as anything important. Shouko was NOT Satou best friend. She saw Satou like that, but Satou didn't reciprocate the feeling. Shouko was just another workmate for Satou. One that's more close thant the others, but she seemed to be just someone she hung out together while going after guys. Shouko had her chance to prove herself to Satou, but she failed and at that time Satou said that it was better for them to just keep being friends from work...that's how things were between them. Shouko tried to cross that line, but she failed. |

| Am I the only one that genuinely liked this episode? It was crazy, it was uncomfortable, and it was unsettling, which was exactly what it was supposed to feel like. It was shown how broken Asahi is and how Shoko tries to be nice to everyone she likes. I'm shocked people are rooting for Asahi to get Shio back when its been shown just how crazy and broken he is and how Shio is so much better off with Satou atm(I know that sounds crazy but here me out). It's been implied that the mom did something to Shio after their escape, the very fact that Shio doesn't even want to remember her past proves it, they even showed just how hard it is to live with their father back then and whenever she tries to remember her past all she feels is fear and is nausea. If Asahi gets Shio back can he even raise her the way he is now, can he even give her food? A place to stay? Basic necessities? Is it right for him to get Shio back? Sure, she's his family. Should he? Idk, like mentioned above he probably can't take care of her. Does that make what Satou has done just? Hell no, she's a criminal there's no changing that. Should she have Shio? It's morally not right since its basically kidnapping but its heavily implied Shio was better off and more happy with Satou than with her family which basically caused her trauma and in a way Satou probably saved her. The main attraction of this show is the contrast between morals and rights. Satou is fucked up but we still root for her cause she's genuinely caring of Shio and doesn't really try to kill everyone unless they REALLY have a chance of ruining her "happy sugar life". Then there's the contrast where Asahi who should be with his sister and is trying so hard to find her to the point that he became broken but at the same time is just incapable of giving her the same necessities and happiness that Satou is giving her now. Also Satou is actually somewhat a decently developed yandere compared to how others are just one because they are Then there's Shoko. Did she deserve what she did? Nope, she's a genuinely nice and caring girl(also normal, the normal part is pretty important, seeing as she's the only one). Did she had it coming? Satou gave Shoko a chance and she just blew it, she then works up the courage to try and redeem herself but it was too late and the way she did it was retarded(I mean taking a picture and standing there? Really?). She tried to try and get too involved and in the worst possible way she can. When the scene played out, I actually was completely satisfied she died just because the setup and flags were there and the points above, would be disappointed otherwise. I know that makes me sound crazy but I'm watching this show 9 eps in. You know what you signed up for the moment you finished ep 1. |

| In a world of lunacy and pyschos, normal-chan was the only girl that (most) people here could've at least somewhat related to. This status as a likeable character was only increased when she kissed poor brother-kun - one of few moments of light in such a miserable show. Her direct attempts at reaching out to shio threw her en route to her own coronation as Best Girl of the entire show. but then shio slit her throat rip seriously it's a huge shame because i really liked normal-chan. the relationship with normal-chan and Satou was really the only one I cared about because it was the only one that had potential to be brought into the light. weird-teacher-fucko no one cared about pedo-fucker was slightly better but neither did i care about him shio's ""aunt"" is hot but hasn't appeared to be of any significance (her seduction of the police guy was fucking stupid lmao) brother-kun's only interesting relationship that was starting to prop up was w/ normal-chan (who is dead) dynamic between satou and shio is obviously important and of note, but doesn't get past the basics of "wow satou is really really really really really obsessed with shio and would do crazy shit to protect her" as far as I can tell normal-chan's death is the most disturbing event of the entire show so-far, partially because she was someone you could've kinda cheered for (I certainly was). Her death demands for blood, the results of her death better be more than just moving the plot along and notifying brother-kun of who has shio, otherwise the notion that this show is indeed garbage will only be cemented Wishender said: Shoko's death...their friendship is now completely destroyed oh, lmao you don't fucking say??? |

Yes, I know what I signed up for, but that still doesn't mean what Satou did was right or that it left me "satisfied" rather, it left me disgusted. |

Shouko didn't deserve to die, you know that. I should have worded it better...i meant to say "until Shouko". She was good girl and was trying to help, unfortunately she saw what she shouldn't. But we can see that in the end Shouko chose Asahi over Satou. She not only took a picture of Satou and Shiou (like wtf?), but also sent it immediately regardless what consequences Satou would face from this. So she was not that GREAT FRIEND that everyone is saying. She was totally going to side with Asahi simply because she liked him even though he is broken and has no condition to take care of Shiou. I'm happy she actually died like that. I like how Satou doesn't hold back when it comes to Shiou and she stays true to her character. @DodeDagon Agree 100% with you. Read my post above and you'll see that i said the same thing about Asahi not being a good choice for Shiou and Satou taking good care of her. |

| She was worried her friend was going down the wrong path and took it upon herself to investigate the matter rather than get the police involved, the wrong move on her part. But she obviously could not have predicted her own death, since Satou had no violent history that she was aware of, there's no way she would have expected Satou to get stabby stabby. |

Yes, but she took a picture and sent it immediately. Se CLEARLY was more worried with Asahi than Satou. People are making it sound like she was so pure and was just trying to help Satou, but it's a fact that she liked Asahi and she clearly was siding with him. If she didn't die there she totally would've tried to help him get Shiou back. Don't doubt that...that's why Satou killed her because she knew Shouko would not keep her mouth shut. There was no other outcome since Shouko saw Shiou. |

Like I mentioned, what she did wasn't right at all. Also she took a picture first before even talking to her or anything, she wasn't really being innocent nor was being worried for her friend the top priority for her, it was giving Asahi a sense of security plus this happened right after she rejected her so she kinda had it coming. Don't get me wrong tho, I don't think she deserves to die, she just sorta "unknowingly" set it up for herself. |

| OH MY GOD! she really did it! Satou KILLED Shouko by slit through her neck! This is so shocking but at the same time understandable with all the psycho characters in this show! That's the end of your line Shouko! Shame her kiss to Asahi was a good one! everything is starting to go down!!! 5/5! |
 |
| That might possibly be the most disturbing murder scene I've ever witnessed. (Though I don't tend to watch too many things which have murder scenes.) Kudos to the director and animators. |
| I see there's a lot of discussion around Shouko's death... but can we talk about Shio for a second? She knew Satou was going to kill Shouko and did nothing to stop her. She knows that Satou has killed people before and hasn't said a word about it. Say what you will but I feel as though Shio's just as terrible as Satou. |
| I was almost inclined to say that this was the worst episode since not so much new happened after Shio's brother was sent the wrong way. The ending made up for that, big time. I still think the show is underrated compared to other summer season shows. |

What evidence can you give me that Shio knows anything about Satou's murders of the 3 men? She was never shown to be awake and acknowledging painter man She was never awake when the two bullies were pulling her by the hair And she was in a separate room when Shouko was murdered. There is no reason for Shio to suspect that Satou would have murdered a random girl since Shio has never seen Satou get violent before. Interesting bit is what will happen in the next episode, once Shio sees Satou covered in blood, the hallway floor covered in blood and a dead girl lying on the floor. |

| I gotta admit that Shouko's death was really well done, it gave me the chills. A much bigger impact than its manga counterpart had. |
  |
| first off, love the unexpected kiss even though i dont understand why she did that but i like to think that they make a cute couple. i thought that it was dumb that Satou killed that girl. Because how is she going to cover up another murder ?? theres alot of people out there that are in her business and alot of people are going to retaliate since the girl died. Especially her mom that calls her every 5 mins lol Loved the visuals though. I liked how it zoomed on her hands scratching Satou's while she is being stabbed. Then showing the red pool of blood and her dead eyes.. Very good visuals. This anime is pretty interesting. I love how it focuses on the mental and emotional part of being a yandere character, and all the other mental issues the other characters suffers from. |

BUT you cant help but question Shio chan's actions. She knew some kind of shit was about to go down when Satou threw Shouko on the floor like that. She knew to go into another room to leave Satou alone. And she knew to cover her ears when things started getting loud.. I found that to be like a "hmmm... thats pretty odd." Maybe she is in the wrong like Satou, maybe she's not. But how she acted in this episode was quite strange and I believe they will show more on that next episode. Hopefully. Still in the dark on how the both of them even met. |

Idk why the hell she took that picture with the sound on lmao but just by her doing that, she was spying. And she tried to talk her way out of it. And then, how she tried to leave the house like everything is going to be alright was also suspicious. She was being too cool. You can tell she had something up her sleeve. So, of course Satou was going to get rid of her and the visuals for that death was pretty great. I also agree with finding the enjoyment seeing an anime with a psychopath as the protagonist. And people may think I am sick or sadistic or something but this anime is pretty good because it doesn't focus on gruesome deaths with a bunch of action or whatever every time compared to other animes. It focuses more on the mental health of each character. It gets in the mind of each crazy character in the anime. So, i rather enjoy all of this. Its different. |

| wait did I miss something…why was the episode 9 exactly the same as episode eight… and I haven’t seen people talking about it seems like I am going insane… Is what I thought first until finally I found the episode… damn the episode was something.. lots of thrills here and there … the last scene though. |
