Oh damn, it's one of those days when Akira decided to run off on his own. Having reunited with his older brother is also a special occasion this episode although it's not heartwarming as you'd think.

Neat episode and there's only 2 more left before this season is over.

Nice, it's finally time for some Akira's development, Kabané really shouldn't have said that he's useless, because of that he left the agency and met his twin brother outside, it really seems like he has something on his heart that makes him act like that, the ice castle is looking great but i'm worried for the other characters... he really froze them? damn, Akira will save them in the next episode I hope

Some Kemono finding Inugami...and more or less, Akira's twin brother. Regardless, the life of the Yuki-onoko isn't a pleasant one either.

Akira being a klutz is just his normal self, but for the non-common sense Kabane to indirectly offend him, that's just intended hilarity. Otherwise, everything is business as usual at the Inugami Counselling Office.

The way that Yui is treating Akira is vastly different from young, but getting locked up in the man-made ice castle...and another lifestone that brings about death, he is immediate trouble.

So...is Akira useful or not in the office? Yes. But he is the only source of help to rescue get Inugami, Shiki and Kabane out of this mess, so I'm looking forward to what he can do.

Following the arc with Shiki and Aya these past few episodes now we have an arc with Akira and his twin brother Yui. Akira has been a fun character to have helping on all these missions before. I've enjoyed having a lighthearted soul along to even things out from all the high stakes drama. Made me feel bad for all those things Akira tried to help with going wrong. Now we're getting some development and backstory to fill out Akira character. Yui arriving has certainly stirred things up! Making that giant ice Castle out of nothing, such raw power as his fingertips. I wonder that the ice marking on his chest could mean, it seems to be doing something to his heart to make him cruel as he was this episode. I hope the people back on his village didn't mess with Yui to get him to bring Akira back or something. Him freezing Kabane, Shiki and Inugami is big trouble!

Little Akira was so adorable. Akira is a good-for-nothing? I love how blunt Kabane was about this. LOL.
Got to know more about Akira's past and his twin brother. His brother is a little creepy but seems like a nice dude who cares about his brother but too overprotective if I should say. Something must have happened to him that he turned out this way.
And pretty powerful and Dangerous as well.

Finally an Akira development arc! I remember them touching on he and his brother’s origins earlier in the season, but it’s nice to get some more backstory on my fave.

You don’t miss your water until your well run dry. Once akira left, Kabane and Shiki realised he was the glue that held them together.

Something is up with his brother, I wonder who’s pulling the strings.. I think it’s more than him being a bro con. Looking forward to the last few eps.

Even though Akira is a bit clumsy, he is a good intermediate to handle and analyze group situations ^^ kabane was hitting where it hurts..
Yui is as cold as ice, turning those guys into statues without remorse. Wonder if his personality is because of the nullstone
Even though I missed Kon this episode. I really like the Akira and yui(brother) back-story and progress.

Actually good development for Kabane in trying to understand his friends a little better. Especially when it comes to Akira.

I honestly can not stand Akira but I can understand how he is a necessary fit for this anime.

I'm hoping we get a continuation and have Kon development after this Akira development.

The older brother oddly resembles Kabane.

Kabane totally roasted Akira with affection. lol

It seems Akira has been watching Frozen.

Mihai is such a mystery. He just shows up and does something totally random.

The Yuki-onakos and the Yuki-onokos are all probably related if they only have one male child every century. And, they need the two boys for their people to survive. Oh, god! The thing that they are implying is quite gross.

Since this looks like a fight will be taking place in an ice palace, I really want to see Akira being awesome. I hope we get that.

i swear when he made that house, i screamed omg frozen!
also kabane be like, it's not the first time you been useless but it's fine, it doesn't bother me( somewhere around that line) and even with a straight face xD
i always loved kabane but i love him even more now. Though i think i like mihai the most in this anime and i don't even know why. i just love him

Would it be acceptable to call Yui a yandere bro?
I'm glad Akira has enough sense to hide their plushie.
Kabane's bluntness reminds me of myself. I wonder if he is also neuro divergent.

Yui and Kabane have simmilar faces, but Yui has angry eyes.
I agree with the next three points, until the Yuki-onako family thing. Maybe they reproduce asexually. This is a supernatural universe after all. Maybe they're like the Amazons from Greek mythology, occasionally visiting male outsiders.
I too want to see Akira saving his friends awesomely.

Glad we’re finally getting an Akira arc, he got an episode earlier on and it was nice, but this is even better so far. I didn’t catch Akira referencing Frozen when he mentioned an Ice castle (if that’s what it was supposed to be lol) but very nice, I’m guessing the null stone thing Akira’s brother is using has corrupted him or something, I doubt he’s actually that much of a jerk. Also gotta love Akira’s reactions to everything.

Akira useless trope maybe annoying and look lame. However, since its amusing, i still respect much of Akira's role within them, there. But, looks like they already reach the limit, and made Akira left them out as a direct result. In short, they, Kabane first, realized that Akira also gave a significance contribution to the group, and decided to brought her back. However, its not such an easy task to be accomplished.

I see that the plot move on to Akira's case with his twin brother. The backstory of them finally revealed with all of its harshness as the only two Yuki-Onnoko for the entire village. Then, something bad might be happened to that dude, after leaving Akira alone. Something that changed his heart into a cold-blooded kemono, without mercy. What exactly happened about that stone? Also whats Akira do after encountering their friends ended up like that?

Kitsune fraction may come to help again after that, maybe Kon arrives too. So, lets see how well its progresses in the next episode!

Great episode! I feel bad for Akira, but Akane being blunt was hilarious lmao, he don't mean any harm though.

Damn, Yui is an ice cold overprotective brother. It's probably the nullstone that's causing Yui to become like that, hopefully. I love that leadup to the ED with the piano, that ending scene was wild. Looking forward to the next episode.

Smol Akira is cute as fuck though.

Hello, fancy party. I am a day late to the party, forgive me. XD

That day, where Kabane unintentionally hurts Akira's feelings unintentionally by telling him the facts made Akira cry. ;-;

That ice call was built in less than 10 seconds, Akira's brother is powerful with the Nil Calculus! Just how powerful is it!?
Oh no! It seems like Kabane, Inugami, and Shiki have been frozen by his brother, Yui!

This ep was pretty lighthearted but that end scene plus the flashbacks tell me things are gonna get really emotional - it seems like Yui would never leave Akira but he told him to head to Tokyo first and I have a bad feeling about why he did that.

On the other hand, it'll be interesting to see how things play out because this is the first time that Kabane has been bested by anyone. In other situations, he's always come out the winner no matter what... hopefully he can do it again this time and save anyone, including Yui!
