| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- OMFG i did not expect something so sad and horrible to happen in this show! That was a really dark episode and the way it deepened the main characters was excellent. I hate how underrated this anime is. If people would just stick with it through the first 3 eps, they'd find it's really awesome! |

| Good initial fight. Not sure how or why Ashura extracted a pellet from Indra, guess I'll have to rewatch that bit (I can understand Indra having earthly desires, but the pellet implies he ingested Vairocana's halo without noticing??) Aasha's story was pretty grim. Interestingly it also shows the vicious circle of meddling (would this had happened if Indra and Ashura had'nt helped in the first place?). |
 |
| Wow, this episode was a massive tonal shift, from the norm... Not that I’m complaining. It was actually pretty profound and heartbreaking. Reminded me a little bit of Dororo, actually. |

| That was a great episode, the backstory of Ashura and Taishakuten was pretty intense. Those villagers weren't merciful at all, hell I hate them for doing that Aasya. I admire Ashura's resolve in trying to save Aasya's soul from hell, but he is drastic in trying to kill his ex friend. I don't trust this Mara will make his wish come through though. This was a meaningful episode and the best one yet. |

| Finally the main plots are revealed - but they were all hinted at since first episode. I knew at some point along the way there would be an explanation. Ashura is truly a glorious tragic hero. I hope SOMEHOW he, Tashakuten and Bonten all get along at the end of the season... |

| Who, this episode was really painful. SmolOwl21 said: This episode really caught me by surprise. Sure, the tone shift was sudden, it went dark very fast, but I was caught off guard by what happened. Definitely one of the better episodes of the series so far. We finally have plot development! Agree. |
 |
| Best episode so far! I didn't like the fact that everything was in that sepia tone though. |

| lmao Shaka really said that people dont get preferential treatment just because they are a cute loli |
