That story about Sasaki-sensei, his sister and Natsuko was really good. I enjoyed it a lot. It could've been a mini-series or drama (like those Korean dramas that have an abundance of fuck-uppery going on such as incest, etc.) and I still would've watched it.

I think, like others have mentioned, that Sakurako's obsession with Radius' bones (and bones in general) might also be linked to finding out her brother's death. I don't recall vividly but I think he was murdered?

I'm liking Shoutarou in this arc. I hope he doesn't display anymore please-notice-me-senpai behavior that I hate in both underaged girls and boys vying for the affection of a much older love interest.

shoutarou finally does something to help solve the case, but this was hardly relevant or important so meh, barely improves his position. at least he's learning the more than 1 truth which might make him be better, which I doubt.

and cant he fucking stop with "sakurako-san" scolding? he keeps on saying it, as if sakurako has been offensive. yet since the beginning til now, she HAS NOT been offensive to anyone, or at least they hardly feel bothered. exception being the detective, but thats more on him being a douche than sakurako being bothersome(heck in the first place, he should be listening to her to just in the odd case that she has a point, and its been established to him already that she's an expert in the field).

sakurako has even proven him that she's correct nearly every time, yet he still seems to think she should back off as if she will make things worse. there was even the festival where he used the lost child to call her, claiming to be the guardian. same thing last ep, he immediately left his class after sakurako went out. like would it kill you to be not by her side every fucking time? sakurako's childish in some parts but thats only concerning bones, otherwise she's a functional adult. cant she just go around and experience festivals by herself?

its like he thinks sakurako is gonna go and steal anything that looks like bones for no reason... when in fact, thus far she's only taken in bones that either dont matter or she owns them in the first place.

I cant ship them or even like them as partners as others have, that its still quite boggling that they're still together. the show makes it so that shoutarou cant seem to really trust sakurako in anything on her own, even though she has shown otherwise every time.

Oh finally some manly talk Shoutarou.. that's using your brains.
The mystery this time was good.. very dramatic and unfortunate sigh.
There's quite some puzzles from here and there so far.
Is the main plot coming now ? I can't wait for it.

At first, I was like " Shoutarou stfu" because he kept scolding Sakurako even though, she was partially correct.. However, he finally did something useful instead of being a cheerleader!!!

I have been telling you all this!!! Sakurako is in an ''ARRANGED" fucking marriage which means she has no feelings for the fiance. An let me dive a little deeper, she was not social at all where it qualified for getting a boyfriend nonetheless getting married voluntarily. Until, Shoutaro comes along and BAM!! We see Sakurako interacting with people, showing emotions, and showing interest instead of concentrating on Bones..

*sigh* I have been saying this for a while now, but... yeah.. I won't say anything to offend anyone (I will keep it to myself)

There wasn't much in the way of "mystery" with this short story, but its emotional prowess kind of made up for that, I think. In short, that old woman's selfishness and irresponsibility ruined the lives of both her brother, Sasaki, and her caretaker, Natsuno. I could only imagine the immense guilt she's carried all those years.

Nothing short of a tragedy.

I knew last episode there had to be some connection between Sasaki and Sakurako. I expected them to be related somehow, but him being her teacher makes more sense.

Perhaps the series in recent episodes has found its shape, giving the idea of what he wants to represent. Melancholic narrative and quite complex, a bit hard to see everything if you do not follow good dialogues, however I enjoyed it all. Drawings and animations of a good standard.

Sakurako is so good! Really, she figured out the true about the old lady so fast.
I hope we see the fiancé until the end...

Shoutaro finally being a useful detective, proactive footwork to the memorial hall, observation skills, backstory on Sakurako & relation to Sasaki sensei & two poisoned cats.
Tragic double forbidden romance with the four related to the merchant family, and a misunderstanding of false half-sibling. Lots of the story is connected now, but still have the fiance, poisoning, & unsolved case files floating in.

Bit of a slower episode but not that interesting to me. So Natsuko wasn't the mother, Sasaki's sister was ... to be honest, not quite sure how she figured that out from the vertebrae bone and her talk about the two "breasts"??? Didn't follow that one lol. Sasaki kept the former's bones because they loved each other ... and Sakurako used to go to Shotarou's school and had him as a mentor. What interests me is the fact that her cats were poisoned! O_O Also who that guy in the hospital is ... man IDK but like, it better be really good >_<

Wait! Where were the baby bones? That box had very few small bones. It wasn't the skeleton of a baby so am confused why they said they were in the box.

Shoutaro stepping up in this episode, didn't expect that... though he was just being nosy.

Darn. I wanted incest story.

Two cats revealed.

I was about to say that was Masaaki Endoh on the radio.

Could this MC even possibly BE a bigger loser? I really enjoy this anime, but I can't stand this kid. Honesty is great, but there's a point where common sense needs to take over to help you determine what is and isn't right.

He's a legitimately bad person, who thinks he's the opposite, and he's dense as hell too. 0 out of 10 for this kid.

So this Sasaki person also taught Sakurako about bones. Interesting episode, though I wasn't really immersed in the story like the other episodes. The mystery and reveal weren't really that important.
The mystery Sakurako wants to discover is probably something else which is what I'm curious about. And these endings always get me, she keeps pointing at how she will die, so I really can't wait for these final episodes. Also, what happened with Isozaki. The opening showed his past but we haven't seen anything about it and since we haven't learned anything big about Sakurako's past, I'm afraid that the Isozaki part was made up and isn't really true which would be a big let down for me since I was really interested in it.
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones!
