Master13Major said: ColdBeans said: I was also wondering about that too. Didn't seem like the thing to do if he was trying to get revenge for her killing his brother. Hopefully that gets answered later.Wow Canaan is really cold-blooded. Didn't even flinch when she killed the boy. But I wonder, why'd the boy want to die? I also don't know why Maria found it so shocking that Canaan would kill someone, especially after she already knows about her past and that the fact that her apartment was littered with guns must have just slipped by her. Love the X-Men! you could say what he did was a form of revenge against canaan by making maria witness for herself canaans other nature that she hasnt seen before, thus canaan being able to sense the rejection. |

| sugoi sugoi xD maria is awesome. but the end was sad. i suppose maria will start to be scared of canaan now. |

| Blah episode. Lots of exposition covering crazy sci-fi stuff exaggerating real medical conditions, and the cat girl was pretty useless to me. I guess this episode exposed that there isn't much to the show besides visuals and fanservice, but hopefully they develop a compelling story light on fake science. |
| I really liked that boy. Whyyyyy! |

| Maria needs to die, woman annoying, "sugoi, sugoi, sugoi" I was almost crazy, moments of action in this anime is great, but in moments of Maria... |

Wrong person to blame, dear noteDhero, if you want to blame somebody, please direct your burning anger toward the MOE reporter girl who took 1/2 of the ep & fill us with her annoying trying-to-be-cute act (-_-) |

| Well, that is true, but since we have some history and connection with her (with that Utu or whatever virus), plus the fact that she got a big ol' reality pie in the face at the end of the episode...I excused it. What is cat girl there for? Then again, she could turn around and be some important spy in the next episode since I didn't think anything of the old man in the first episode who later chased Canaan around for a whole sequence in the second, and had a brother come out for revenge in this episode... |

I mean yah, I agree with the last half, but the cat girl was epic fail.. |
| If you die, troll your killer! Heh, now I know how it feels to be an NPC in 428... |

| Another series which managed to make killing, chasing and other stuff like that boring as hell. Well at least is slightly less boring than Tokyo Magnitude. |

maarika said: I don't get what the cat girls were all about but it seems a more character-driven story line would be interesting, even if it means less action. I don't care much about Maria at this point, and she's not that annoying to me (yet). I'm more interested in what Alphard and Liang Qi are up to. I liked how Liang Qi barely had any screen time in this episode but still managed to bring out her sadistic side. :D I can't wait to see her snap and go all psycho on someone. You are so damn right !!! As long as GODDESS Liang Qi is present, I dont care how bleh the ep is and still give it 5/5. Gahhhh, dunno what makes me attracted to her so bad... |

| I loved it, I feel like I'm getting the right amount of action, story telling and not so much fanservice but enough to make me smile and not get annoyed. I really am enjoying it. |

But seriously, beside the 2 main girls: Canaan and Alphard, as for good characters we only have GODDESS Liang Qi who got limited screentime simply because she wasnt MOE, the tall dude in the OP who doesnt appear yet and BADASS Santana who got less screen time than that piece of SHAT named Mino, Mito or whatever shitty name he has ....Damn it !!! |

| I liked it. It was the perfect revenge for someone whose brother she had put down so easily. He knew he couldn't go after her directly or he would end up the same way, so he spied on her and found out she had a weak spot, her one and only friend. So then of course he kidnapped her and waited for canaan to pick up the scent. I was a little surprised he didn't just kill her right away as that would have been the certain route, but what he did, while chancy (and likely not going to work in the long run) is even more evil. By telling her that he wouldn't hurt her and making canaan think he was going to, he forced canaan to become a monster in her friend's eyes which is what canaan saw at the end, her friend being even more scared of her than the boy who had just taped a bomb on her head. I doubt the separation will last long though. Canaan will probably try to stay away because that is what she believes Maria wants, but Maria will likely drag Canaan back because of her energetic personality. Also, the reason Maria said Canaan so many times was because she was trying to get Canaan not to kill the boy because he wasn't going to kill her. Before the fight, he had told her that if she said anything other than "Canaan," he would blow himself up, so her only choice was to keep repeating her name in a (failed) attempt to get Canaan's attention to her rather than the fight. The woman who shoots her aid with rubber bullets whenever she gets mad is pretty hilarious too. |

| Favorite show of the season. |
| so it appears canaan doesn't have death perception but eyes that sense colors... but shes pretty proficient with the hand knife. maria is a dumb character, sugoi my ass. thirteen episodes, they're sure taking their sweet time with the story. |
| I don't see how this anime relates to the game. In fact, this is a lot better than the game. This is most likely about... Mino-san And now.. Next episode... Not sure what to expect... There is terrorism involving guerilla fighers from the Middle East, scientific experiments involving iPS cell technology, American investors in China allying with the Chinese on some grand scale conspiracy, two journalists getting caught in-between and also all sort of supernatural strangeness happening from one place to another. Looks interesting!!! |

I'm not really 100% sure on everything, but Canaan's 5 senses are all directly linked together somehow i think they said. So it isn't that she can see colors, it is that her senses combine to be able to "see" smells and such. I haven't played the game, but as far as i know this series has nothing to do with mystic eyes of death perception (which are the coolest thing ever by the way). Canaan just has insanely good senses that are linked together from some mutation/virus/something, is extremely athletic and is very handy with a number of weapons. Having such good senses allows her to detect her enemies easily (likely linked to their mutations, such as that one brother having two hearts) and also probably to predict and counter what they do in a fight. |
| This episode explained a little bit about Canaan's eyes. For example, it detects life through the heart and can see the "colour vibes" of people. It was quite nice to see Canaan and Maria together; just like 2 any normal friends. This episode was really exciting as well. I can't wait to see how would Maria recover from her shock. |

Horo? O.o |
| Huh? What the hell do you mean? |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| Huh, so that crazy old guy really was his brother. |
   |
| huhu, and there was i thinking it was his crazy old mother :P |
| I expect a lot from this anime... Fake bomb... I never see one before! |
| Feh, I hate catgirls. For the first five minutes of the show I kept thinking 'FDJFNDJSFNJKSN WHERE IS CANAAN. I DON'T CARE ABOUT HER BOOBS ;_;' After that I found the episode somewhat enjoyable. Green-haired chick looks a lot better without the stupid catgirl getup imo. Sewer scene was pretty cool, but still left some questions. |
|Antanaru said: Huh? What the hell do you mean? I think he mean the brown long haired girl who look at the MCs looked like GODDESS Horo from S&M 2. Poor comparaison BTW... <_< |

| This little guy voice was so FAMILIAR!! does anyone knows who his seiyuu is? isn't it Kobayashi Yuu?? |
 |
| Awesome episode. The dude deserved to die though, after all he's the one who put up a threat. |
| In the words of Maria Oosawa "AMAZING!" = ) |

| That neko girl is so hot. The story is more interesting as it have some serious moments. I hope this series will have the answers later because I am not sure at some scenes as there’s few questions that needs to be answered in order to understand what the story talks about. Canaan is an interesting character, and I want to know her past and story more as possible. I really hope that end won’t destroy their relationship after Maria was afraid of Canaan, and I wonder If Maria is able to face to her when they bump each other. Canaan still reminds me of Shiki. Young Canaan <333 |

| The slow pace in the first half of the episode didn't make it too interesting, but the second half made up for it. A pretty interesting finale scene, we definitely know that Maria starts to fear Canaan and Canaan knows about it now (judging on the last words she says in the episode), which makes me look forward to how their relationship is going to go from here. It was boring at certain parts and if it's gonna keep up like this where only few scenes are interesting in an episode, I'm going to drop the series. Let's hope at least some questions will be answered soon, right now this anime raises quite a lot of them without no answers. 6+/10 |

| The boy's voiced sounds like Natsume (aka Oz in Pandora Hearts). |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| marias really scared of canaan.........it was sad when canaan cud understand the whole rejection thing, that little kid is just suicidal.....maris sugoi thing was cute...u know how kids repeat a single phrase a million times...its annoying when they do it...the water fall thing was just funny when the journalist was sitting beside the green haired women....anyways the show seems cool...waiting for alot of action from canaan...and the alucard women... |
