| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- That was a bit of a mess of an episode. We get teased with some action, then we keep on flashing to some no-name kids who are running to the funeral. Then we get some quicky flashbacks, and then some out of place humor, and finally Teito wakes up and gets himself possessed for no good reason. I'm getting disappointed with the increase in idiot plotting going on in this series. I had hoped that it would improve as Vampire Knight did, but it is going the opposite direction. :-( |
| Kuroyuri vs. Castor? I would hope that Labrador would fight against Kuroyuri (both my fav. characters, so cute). Edit: I forgot that Labrador was fighting against Haruse. I think I heard Paku Romi's voice for that random guy in long hair. (Thought so, Wyda? was Paku Romi's character) Wait, was it in the manga? Kuroyuri letting Haruse drink his/her blood (basically kissing)... I really love Hakuren & Teito! lol @ Frau & Teito. lol more @ Castor & Frau. Teito's "possessed" because he's saying opposite to what he thinks. Kuroyuri got Teito and Hakuren, who went to save him. (is this part in manga, too? I basically forgot most of the middle part! Or is it anime originated because the series is almost ending?) dbaranyi said: then we keep on flashing to some no-name kids who are running to the funeral. Those kids, I think, are just random students of the church in the beginning, and Frau's past, too, after getting the power to purify Kohl (I know I misspelled it, sorry about that). |

| Well if anything, we got confirmation that this is shounen-ai. I really don't see this as hints anymore. These boys are all in love with each other. Besides that, after 19 episodes, Teito finally leaves the church, but not of his own accord at all, and he's headed back to the church. |
| Castor, so full of win! I don't remember Haruse and Kuroyuri 'kissing' in the manga... Did they? Am I crazy? The extra bits, the bits with the two kids (I can't remember their names) running around, bleeehhh. Unnecessary. As is much in this series. Uh, lessee. Oh yeah, Hyuuga! Got like, two seconds of screen time. That two seconds though, has millions more win than Kuroyuri's three episodes. Sorry, I don't like Kuroyuri. Next episode, should be interesting. It at least LOOKS like it's got some real action in it, but they'll probably gloss over it and cut to some scene of Teito crying. I shouldn't make fun of him, but DAMN. I hate how I sound like I don't like the series. I love the series, but this anime is up there on the Kuroshitsuji level. Bleeegghhh. |

| Aiya...what is there really to say? Really? I have no idea where any of this is going. And like NoteD has noted (sorry for the horrible pun, this is how iffy I am), they're all out of the closet by now. Which is a shame. I should have picked up the manga when it first came out. Then again, perhaps like Kuroshitsuji, I'll appreciate the manga more over how faulty the anime is. The comedy in this series...shouldn't even be called comedy...it's just...horrible. Basically on par with Bleach's comedy...which is to say, forced, corny, and best left excluded. -Sigh- I agree with Uskaro though, this reminds me of Kuroshitsuji, lovely artwork, awesome concept, horrible execution. Six more episodes left and I remain unimpressed. |
| hmm... according to the subs...Castor called Kuroyuro as "boy" so i guess... he's really a guy? :X and i like their use of the narrative devices here, it leaves a more dramatic impression on me unlike those straight, chronological ones most of the time. |

| how complicated ... oh well just watch it |
| I read the manga after 17 eps of the anime..and it's far easier to understand..and those boys aren't no name..they just haven't had much screen time yet. Teito got watking by the Wars because he felt depressed etc, even if just for a second, cause it was still inside of him. and the flashbacks and following the students was just to explain Feist and his powers so you know when Castor fights, I think it served it's purpose. Now Ayaname and his Black Hawk crew are heading towards the Church to pick up the Eye of Mikhal and Teito Klien. whats so confusing? :o (i admit i was confused too..manga helps all) which just makes it sad because you shouldn't have to read 2 sources to understand the plot, just makes it sloppy story telling. |
| oh my, i don't remember kuroyori 'kissing' haruse in the manga. oh well, does not matter, yes i have to agree the plot is a bit of all over the place but since there's is ~6 ep left, i might as well finish it. |
| all the "confusion" on this episode, it actually looks great to me. the use of narrative devices where great, and kt sort of added to the cool directing of the scenes. i love the part where labrador sort of foresees the future and the whole visual zoomns into towards ayanami and his fleet, then to kuroyuri xD and yeah, this episode was full of gay :X |
dbaranyi said: some no-name kids who are running to the funeral I liked that just because they told you indirectly which god is Castor, the one who ties people bonds: that's why he uses those "strings" to fight, I suppose. Except that, the pace always leaves me negatively speechless: action, comedy, wristcutting... Average if not nice by themselves, but all badly tied together. Dunno. |
LostArticulation said: Six more episodes left and I remain unimpressed. lolz same here and those boys at the beginning could hint their later roles? setsunarensa said: and yeah, this episode was full of gay :X lolz |
| 6 more episodes... wonder how they're gonna wrap it up. Well I guess that's a lot of time, since there have been many times series have been wrapped up in 1 or 2 episodes... Kuroyori and Haruse... ^_^; and plenty of other rather big hints of shounen-ai going around as well. |
| 8DDD Oh my. KuroyurixHaruse. Though somehow I think Kuroyuri may be genderless like Crona from Soul Eater. I think Kuroyuri's more than likely to be a boy, by the way he/she talks, not to mention their voice sounds very shota-ish and they have NO BOOBS. Then again like I said, similar to Crona if anything. &Teito's like..this huge clingy, emotionless cry baby. He's just a wreck throughout more than half the series. Not that I hate him. It's the angst that makes some series what they are (IE Code Geass, Gundam Seed). I like how he just nailed Frau xD That was epic. But I'm scared D: Are Hakuren and Teito on Ayanami's ship now? Or are they outside the church's somewhere? I know Kuroyuri and Haruse were still around there..so maybe it's just that Ayanami and everyone else are coming to get him. Damn this is intense. |
| Oh i love Kuroyuri. So cute. <3333 Once this is all over, i think im going to read the manga. Im curious about those boys..and i love Kuroyuri.. |
| those boys...sort of remind of Haruse and Kuroyuri :X idk...maybe it's because of the hair :X |
| I think the recent episodes are the best ever! but I wish they follow the manga storyline and do it properly instead of ruining the image of 07-Ghost. Episode 19 is great. It's got action, its usual bittersweet moments, suspense. The episode doesn't drag as much. What I'm worried is that they skipped the exam altogether. Unless they gonna put that in in the wrong order. I've a feeling that the anime will have an open ending. uhhh, they've only just scratched the surface of this great manga. Why can't they just animate it properly! |
| for someone who didnt read the manga, i'm enjoying the anime so far. frau's porn is really everywhere. and lol at the "the cigarette must be medicine" |
| Castor finally gets some action and he owns (Labrador gets a little bit too)! xD Aside from the somewhat unpredictable pacing, I thought it was a good episode. I didn't think that the Black Hawks were ready to go pick up Kuroyuri and Haruse in the next episode ...I thought the bishop exam was first and I am really looking forward to that exam. Can't remember - I'll go double-check the manga. |
| Whens the next episode out? This episode lefty me wanting more :D |

I always thought everything comes out on Thursdays...for some reason. Or maybe that only applied to certain series and I've heard that somewhere... So...how do you even know which series is released on which day? |

So...how do you even know which series is released on which day? The subs from DB comes out every Wednesday =) Anyway, I really want to see the bishop exam (hope deen animated it). Considering there is only like 6 episodes left, I guess there isn't much hope of seeing Castor's past and such. (I haven't read the manga yet but I somehow spoiled myself by reading all the information in Wikipedia >_<) |
| I love this anime, it's sooo adorable. This episode was fun! Frau rocks the screen as usual. Is this series yaoi or do they all have just extremly close relationships between the same sex but still remain straight? 'Cause they say I love you so easily somehow but still have interest in the bodypart of a woman which straight males tend to notice best (chest*cough*) x__x Doesn't matter though, it's adorable!! |

| Okay episode but I was expecting the confrontation between Castor and Ayanami to be a little more interesting. That Kuroyuri and Haruse escaped so easily after getting thoroughly owned was annoying, and Teito suddenly getting kidnapped was maddening after everything in the last few episodes. Loved Frau dropping his porn and smoking the cigarette. He's awesome. Hopefully things will improve next episode with more Ayanami. It's safe to say this show has failed to live up to its potential, though. |

(I haven't read the manga yet but I somehow spoiled myself by reading all the information in Wikipedia >_<) Thank you much! And haha yes! I've done that before too...the wiki thing. Not the greatest move but at that time, I didn't think I'd be picking up that series (I did in the end though!). |
| Those kids have a meaning, as they also appear in the manga. I personally loved this episode, even if it felt rushed. Castor was awesome. My guess is that they'll end this series with Teito's result of the Bishop's Exam... I guess the question for now is if there's going to be a second season or not. I do hope so. |
| Dutch anime blogger with a love for Ikuhara's antics and proper storytelling. |
| This episode is pretty cool. Hmm not much say about this episode. ( I think ) Kuroyuri and Castor was awesome in this episode ( I think I'm start like that kid Kuroyuri ) Though I was hoping Labrador get some action. Well I uderstand why he isn't get much action. :\ Poor Frau got beating up in this episode. He will never learn. lol Loved the hugging scene between hakuren and teito. ~R.I.P Bastien. :( Now next week I'm really looking forward to seeing. :) |
| The Teito capture seemed rushed, can anyone who read the manga confirm? Castor is definitely my favorite, throws in a touch of badass at will. |
| -=Dear gravity don't let me go, hold me like the winter holds the cold=- |
| I thought this episode was an improvement! We get to see some action this episode! I don't agree with others how this was a messy episode. It's probably the best among the others. i lol at the numerous times Frau got beat up. |
| good diversion on frau's part with the mags and cigarettes; and it looks like teito has finally been captured, and with an invasion force on its way too! |
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures |
| There were some episodes that left me wondering why I'm still watching this. Now I know the reason was Castor. That is all. |

| LOL @ the sisters thinking that Frau was one of the ghosts until they saw his porn collection and lighter. Good job Frau. XD |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Second best funeral of all time because Mamiko Noto was there. I'm a little disappointed that Frau didn't choose her when getting the chance to hold hands with one of the sisters though. |

| Ah that must have been such a painful experience for Frau. I think Castor-in-action and Labrador-in-action didn't get enough screen time xD Sheesh those sisters NEARLY blew Frau's covers. |
| Nice episode. Wonder what will happen next. |
| This episode made me realize that I reaaally enjoy this anime! * w *; It's one of the few animes that has many original and likable characters. I'm so not ready for it to draw towards an ending. |
| I actually really liked this episode! Yeah, the humor was a little out of place, but it was still enjoyable! |
| I wanna see more Ayanami! Especially in action! |

| The show is very mediocre, but it is fun and entertaining. That is all that matters, not everything has to be a masterpiece! There are two characters in this show that are above average: Frau and Kuroyuri! And I have to admit I got hyped at the end with the sudden kidnap, the pacing went up and some fast action! It is now a 6 for me, which is fine. If the last 6 episodes are great and action packed it will maybe be bumped to a 7. We will see! |
