| Great episode, but I hope we see Keiichi, Rena and the others kick ass soon, swinging the bat and the machete and so on xD |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| quite a boring ep -_- cmon lads,let's rumble already xD btw i realised that i feel pity for Miyo,and her stepfather hifumi also did not deserve to be treated like that :( too bad miyo is a psycho b*tch 4/5 |

| I hope everyone survives....seems like Takano can get quite scary when she's mad. |
| I hope Tomitake doesn't die...again. And Oishi was full of win again! |
 |
| "Here , Mr.Demon .Come out , come out , wherever you are ." |
| Takano will definitely lose it.. |
 |
| I hope Tomitake doesn't die. =[ I'm with Keiichi... I'm on the edge of my seat! Takano didn't see that coming. AHAHAHA. [/Nelson's laugh] I never thought I would actually like Ooishi. Tomitake. D= |
| Omg the end!!! I am dying to see the next ep. |
| Glad Takano gets her plans messed up by some kids :P And man is it getting more and more intense to watch each coming episode. |
| wow this episode is just epic. Reminds me alot like the last arc where everyone worked together. I hope Tomitake can actually throw a punch. Also, next episode doesn't seem very promising |
 |
| It's great to see Takano so riled up because people were betraying her instead of the other way round for once. I hope Tomitake actually survives this arc for once too XD |
 |
| TOMITAKEEEEEE!! CHAAAAARGE!!! Haha, I am really starting to love everyone. Especially Ooishi. OMG. He's so badass. <3 As soon as they found Tomitake's hideout spot, I was like, "Well, he's dead," and then when Takano ordered for Dr. Irie to be watched, I was like, "Well, he's dead too." I just figure Takano and the organization will dispose of whoever they find of going behind their backs and ruining their plans - after all, Takano's devastation, anger, and frustration is clearly getting to her. She's wearing her heart on her sleeve at this point. Heee, things are getting really edgy and exciting!! <333 |
 |
| lol Takano gets so upset X'D im happy but i feel bad at the same time... she just wants 2 avenge her "Grandfather" yet shes being screwed... and OH NO! Irie and Jirou! i wonder whats gonna happen to them! i really hope they end up okay! DX lol OMG it was SO funny when that man lied 2 Ooishi! He was like "It's the Sonozaki's!" and they showed up XD bwahaha! that was so funny and PERFECTO! good job Ooishi! ahh this was a great epi! I hope every1's gonna be all right! |
 |
| Ooishi! Do work! |
 |
| Huh, I wonder if Takano acted like this in Watanagashi-hen or Meakashi-hen. Rika was dead over 48 hours in those worlds. Even after rewatching this again, I keep wondering if Takano really develops Hinamizawa syndrome... She's starting to get a bit paranoid, but then again, she's justly paranoid. |

| OMFG!!! loved this ep, oishi showing who's the boss in town!! :D also, takano miyo seems to be tracking on.... don't want irie or tomitake to die... especially tomitake.... HE DIES IN EVERY FRIGGIN CHAPTER!!!!!! |
| another huge Ooishi fan convert here xDD I really hope Tomitake and the others live but I guess there has to be at least one death, seem more likely :< |
 |
| HOLY SHIETTTZZZ |
Sir_Lexa said: 9th-eden said: Oh sure they show me that Takano sleeps naked and they expect me to focus for the rest of the episode?... honestly. QFT! THIS. |
 |
| so much great plans are happening for Rika but yet it has been a while since I heard her say her cute catchphrase: Mii NIPPA!  |
| I'm so happy to see Takano pissed!<3 I'm scared for Tomitake now, but at least he finally didn't die on Watanagashi night. |
| I still don't get why does Takano need Rika dead? ;/ |
| @waterfaerie256 If I'm reading things correctly, Takano wants Rika dead so she can bring in the clause from the emergency manual that calls for total annihalation of the villagers. I laughed when I heard Keiichi say "I'm all fired up" It seems like Natsu watched some good old Higurashi and picked the phrase up :D Tomitake smash was pretty cool too :o |

Divy said: This pretty much. It's not Takano actually. The faction that hired Takano after Tokyo announced she was being laid off want her to erradicate Hinamizawa so they can pin the blame on the Old Faction of Tokyo and take their place as leaders of the organization. They promised Takano a head position as researcher and more money to research into mind illnesses and such.@waterfaerie256 If I'm reading things correctly, Takano wants Rika dead so she can bring in the clause from the emergency manual that calls for total annihalation of the villagers. That's basically it, Tokyo having an internal war and Takano working for one side because she was gonna lose her job without proving what her grandfather wanted to prove. |

| Hah ... if the Yamainu were watching Rika's house so careful so why they have not seen neither of Ooishi or Akasaka entered or left the house !! . And why they didnt tell Tomitake about the plan ... this is stupid . |
loub31 said: The Yamainu's main base is not in Hinamizawa so they actually don't do a 24-hour watch on Rika until some days before their operation (meaning until a few days before the festival) in order to not draw suspicion. They just used the hustle and bustle of the Festival to get Rika out and sneak in Akasaka, they just fail to show it. And Tomitake was in what you call a Communication Blackout in order not to draw attention to himself, hence no one could contact him. That said, the move with Tomitake was a little stupid since they kinda knew they were throwing him under the bus since Takano would suspect him first if something leaked.Hah ... if the Yamainu were watching Rika's house so careful so why they have not seen neither of Ooishi or Akasaka entered or left the house !! .

The problem is that Tomitake didnt know about the " 48 hours" plan ... that suprised me a lot ... imagine that he would commited a foolish act after hearing Rika dead ... maybe he would go to Rika house and spoil the plan ! |
loub31 said: Yep, that was the one thing I found boneheaded about the last arc both when I saw it and when I played it. But Tomitake is a pretty smart guy and shrewd too. The main reason he never suspects Takano in any other arc is that he truly loves Takano, even more because Takano actually shared deeps parts of her past with him. SO he felt he had to help her because she had a rough life. But in terms of intelligence he's actually easy to catch on to things, so long as he isn't blinded by love.Leon-Gun said: loub31 said: The Yamainu's main base is not in Hinamizawa so they actually don't do a 24-hour watch on Rika until some days before their operation (meaning until a few days before the festival) in order to not draw suspicion.

| Hoo Hoo Hoo, that bitch is getting exactly what she deserves! YES! :D But why do I still have a feeling this will end badly? |
| Oh my god, this is getting intense! Love this show! <3 |
| Great ep, the plot fired up pretty unexpectedly so i had to keep my focus on every word they said during the whole episode to undestand what was going on (now thats the kind of anime i like ! :D) Although based to what we know now everything should be settled, but there are probably some things we still dont know about like nomuras connection to all this (if thats her actual name) . Also i wanna see if Rena reveals something she only knows about oyashiro-sama and the curse , and if the maggots in her blood were real and not just part of her delusions. |

| Ahaha. What a great episode! ^^ Takano is really mad. And then that Ootaka :P Hanyuu is so cute at the end when she was singing~ |
| I am so afraid of something going wrong....so intense..... |
 |
| Ooishi was so badass in this ep! |
| Finally this season gets interesting, after it has been extremely mediocre for almost all the previous episode. Hope from this episode onwards, the last 4 episodes can save the season and maybe I'll give it a 6. |
| I want to see Takano with level 5 disease! Make it happen, drive her more into paranoia! But don't kill her (death's too good for her), asylum with level 5 syndrome is what she deserves!!! |
| I kinda wanted more of a close up on Takano's boobies..... oh well, this series is awesome! |
   |
| This episode was pure awesome. Takano's plan has gone to shit while Ooishi and crew just laugh at her desperate attempt to regain everything. Tomitake better kick some ass. |
 |
| 1. seeing takano in a panic was exciting, but she is very persistant. 2. tomitake surviving that 2-story jump looked so easy. 5/10 |
| Amazing episode. Ooishi was awesome. I also thought that their plan would commence on the day of the festival but this is much more interesting. |
| The scene with Ooishi and the Sonozakis was awesome! I laughed when the Yamainu-guy shouted "They got military expertise and know-how!" or something like that, when it's really just a bunch of kids who made the plan^^ But it looks like the plan won't go as easy as imagined, I sure hope that Tomitake and Irie survive the next ep! |
| THE EPIC BATTLE BEGINS! HOLY SHIT! Ooishi throwing that guy over his shoulder was badass! Naked Takano :O... Watching Tomitake jumping out that window and onto that car roof really gained him some badass points! Too bad he got caught anyways. When Takano's pissed, you know shit's going down. EPIC EPISODE! 5/5 |
