Nothing much to say about this episode though...
The thing that I'm most excited for is the one next week!!
But if they screw up that one, I'll just drop this for sure, rather enjoy the manga and pretend the anime didn't exist...

There were some pretty random things in this episode, but the mermaid's scaly feet and webbed hands were a bit disturbing. I hope that next week returns to some decent action.

This episode: BAD! What the hell happened to this series?! I was "wtfing" all the way through this ep! I'm tired of original episodes! Hopefully they decide to chuck the originals out the damn window, and get moving.

Next episode:


It looks like they're going to be getting somewhat more on track with the manga next ep though. Still can't say that I'm happy about them wasting 3 episodes on irrelevant stuff though.

Frau, Castor, and Lab (and Razette) still awesome though. Hyuuga and crew still awesome (though that thing with Kuroyuri... did I miss something somewhere?)

Well, at least this one was a little bit better than last week's. Still on the boring side, but the next ep looks like it'll be more interesting. *crosses fingers*

Errr, what happened to this series? Hell, this episode? You want the answer? Nothing, it's been pretty terrible from the get-go. Has anything really happened yet? Please, point me out if it has. This episode was no exception, either. I'mma sit around and stick this out because I'm a masochist and you guys keep saying it's going to get so good. Here's ta hopin'.

Also, I really hope that Teito will take his chains off soon.

More boring filler but I guess the series had to have some build up to Mikage's death... the story progression is still incredibly slow. Nothing has been explained or even expanded upon, so everything still has an ambiguous feeling to it.

Hahaha I didn't even watch this episode. I downloaded it...watched the preview in the beginning. I thought about it and figured I don't need to see another pointless episode, fast forwarded to the preview for next episode and.....

HALLELUJAH!!! It looks like it's finally back on track!!! I wish there was a picture to depict my utmost relief and happiness XD

Personally I don't like how they dragged on for TWO FILLER EPISODES. I see no benefit in doing that.



And the thing about Teito...I don't like how they are just playing up on the whole "main character suddenly gains inner ultimate power" archetype thing. It's just totally wrong.

I'm starting to really see how badly Studio DEEN deals with the suspense and mystery aspect of this series...which is really too bad because it's what really adds "umph" to the series.



So although I'm not going to watch this episode now because I'm just too upset with another filler....I'm looking forward to next week's episode. Maybe I'll be able to push my stubborn-ness away by then and just watch episode 7 XD

I guess in these last few episodes, they were trying to flesh out Mikage's character more as a build up to the next eposide? Oh well.

it was ok i guess? but really this episode didn't seem like it was needed at all. I'm getting sick of these random kor encounters just cause ayanami keeps testing him. It gets boring after the 2nd time -_-, the fights are so dull too. Nothing much happened this week, but looks like it may actually start developing the main plot next week so i actually really want to see how it will play out now.

well in my case the first episode made my expectations become quite high because it seemed like it had great potential which then it got quite dull after that ep... though i guess it's been ok and enjoyable in ways. Hopefully it's gonna get better starting next week.

First of all, what is with the previews of the current episode at the start each time? it seems like if you actually watch them instead of skipping them (i skip them), it would spoil the highlights of what you're about to watch (stupid).

I'll give it another episode or two. Sadly everything after the first episode (which i thought was good) has been downhill rather severely. We're talking about a show that makes To Aru Majutsu no Index seem like it has lots of plot/character development which says a lot. They're still in the church, they still haven't done anything, teito is still in the chains, mikeage is still in limbo over the family/teito thing, the anime is still emotionless.

The problem is that it is so easy to see other shows such as Pandora Hearts when watching this and they just blow this show out of the water. I can only see the same scene of them emotionlessly dealing with the new kor of the week before i get bored of it. It doesn't help that the fighting totally lacks life/action (come on, i know that it is hard to show effects like magic, but is that the best they can do?) as well. Add in static characters and it makes me wish i had pretended they canceled the series after the first episode. Although i assume teito will actually start to evolve as a character after the hinted at mikage death, maybe he will even break those chains in anger.

An ironic thought came to me. while overall it is impossible to empathize with the characters in this show for obvious reasons, i do empathize that Teito has been imprisoned in church for 7 episodes because i too have been imprisoned in this church for 7 episode :|

Bit of an improvement over the last episode, but far too familiar. Kor comes in, bishops learn this, bishops take their sweet time in dispatching it while Teito's in danger. The only thing different from the last one is Frau noticed someone was watching, but there's no reason that couldn't have happened with Ayanami's first test. The preview looks pretty interesting so hopefully things improve as I really liked the first several episodes of the show.

Imho this show sucks. Perios.

Can't they think of other opponents? Can't they draw better fights? Can't they put effort in blending CG into animation? I did not read the manga. But the show isn't up to anything, after 7 episodes I didn't get anything nice (except for Teito sitting on the very tip of a tower at the end of the opening, suggesting subliminally his sexual orientation).
I'm not gonna drop it for some kind of masochism already mentioned in this thread.

I'm not used to bash shows so bad, but I couldn't keep back this time, sorry.

Drag, drag, drag. D: My goodness, hopefully the next episode will liven up the series and keep it back on track. This series definitely has potential, but the slow start of the series is really taken a toll on its enjoyment factor.

Hopefully, we'll be back on track in the coming episode since it's "THE" part that most of us have been waiting to happen but gets drag forever till now. I dislike the way they animate the zaiphon fight too. It's just not too appealing...the sparkles are just well...overly sparkly...LOL. Studio Deen should learn a thing or two from Production I.G when it comes to animating the casting of spells in a fight. They did a pretty good job with Tsubasa Chronicle in that aspect....not full of sparkles...Lol. Really, I had to laugh each time Kor vs Teito fight came on.

somehow that army guy is able to see them without being there, why is that? and what exactly is that eye thing in teito's hand?

Do they ever plan to take off Teito's chains? This is getting annoying..
