| What, this is a only 13 episodes anime? I never expected it rushed this much. Fk. The episode was epic nonetheless. I didn't expect the Level 5 Gastrea to die so easily really. Fk, not Enju! Yet another anime that's fast on taking victims this season :\ Not that I mind, but I'd have liked if Enju and Rentarou could be in this for long... |

| They're going at a fast pace but at least they're keeping to the story and not going anime original (like toriko :( Did my n!gga Hruko just die?! dafuq and poor Kohina :( That level 5 was called by the old guy right but Hiruko was trying to summon another one so would another have come if they didn't stop Hiruko. |
 |
| Rushed and shallow, *dropped* Will pick up the manga instead as people seem to claim it does a much better job. |

| That was one emotional rollercoaster for me They tried to cram way too much into that episode, it's definitely going too fast, especially since it's only going to be 13 eps long. I don't think it will be as good as I hoped it would But damn that OST!! |

| Even if you don't know the source material it feels rushed. I wish I could find the time and look into the manga, but that's not going to happen soon, so I guess I have to stick to the anime. The episode still had some epic moments, but sad to see Kagetane already die, he seemed like a promising antagonist for once. After Rentarou went all Fullmetal Alchemist and they said, that there is some kind of a problem with the railgun, I kinda knew, that something like this was gonna happen. Although I hoped, that he would shoot himself at that Gastrea, would have been kinda awesome. xD But I guess, it's not that kind of a show, where something like this was possible^^ |
| I was expecting too much from the villain Kagetane but everything felt so rushed... somewhat disappointed from this : ( |
| I'm tired of people thinking Kagetane is dead. HE IS NOT DEAD, AND HE WILL BE BACK, NOW CAN EVERYONE SHUT UP ABOUT IT! |

| can someone please clarify one thing for me : Was the masked man's goal summoning the stage 5 gastrea so that people would use them ( people like him and rentaro ) again and not disregard their existence? it felt like he was in cahoots with the old man or did they just want to kill off the initiators by using ppl like rentaro and the masked person :/ |
| Not again NOOOOOOOOOOOO T______T I didn't even get to see who the masked man identity?? New villains ??? |
| Ohoho so he is pretty awesome.I like how his mechanic arm and leg look like :) |
 |
| 7% left ... If Enju dies this show is ruined. |
 |
| what a fucking awful pace.. if it wasn't for the animation, ost and such I would've dropped that shit as fast as I did with mahou sensou |
 |
| It definitely does seem rushed though the episode itself was still enjoyable but I think we lost all that emotional build-up because of the pacing for all the fighting and the deaths. I guess I'll have to read the LN. |
Fiji said: My thoughts exactly, but i'm glad i ignored all the BS in this episode and gave it a 5Uhh. This is too rushed. The glorified villain Kagetane's fight vs. Rentaro has been rushed... Rentaro was on the verge of death before using those Gastrea injections. Also, wish they were able to have shown the backstory of Rentaro more in the previous episode than just a glimpse and summarizing his past by Kisara. Heck, we didn't even see Enju vs. Kohina fighting it out. The pacing is planned so poorly. >.< Also, the inside of the box is a kid's bicycle? Facepalm. Hopefully the explanation for that in the future will have a lot of sense. Really had high hopes for this, now it is ruined by bad pacing. |

| this was realllllyyy fast paced, like in-fucking-credibly fast paced. Got to see rentarou's true skills now which were pretty badass. Gotta admit those prosthetic arms,legs and even eye of his were pretty freaking cool. But really they got to do something about the pacing like it's making this anime which had a lot of potential to be great take a turn towards being not so good. |
| To hunger, but not gluttonous. To arouse, but not lustful. To tire, but not slothful. |
| 1. why didn't rentaro go cyborg the 1st time he fought the guy. Would've saved him some hospital bills. 2. I would be mad as hell that i almost died twice over some tricycle with no explanation either. |
 |
| This show is so cheesy and clueless it's actually amazing. |
 |
| I was so excited for this series up until this episode. Its wayyy too rushed! It was to the point where I thought this was the last episode until I saw the last 2 minutes of the episode. Its too bad since everything else about the anime is great aside from the pacing. Guess I'll be moving to the manga.. |
| episode with plenty of action, drama and questions unanswered Enju being the best loli of the season but the plot of the anime is going too fast and so might not realize how the series is amazing ________ episodio com muita ação, drama e duvidas não respondidas Enju está sendo a melhor loli da temporada mas o enredo do anime está se passando rápido demais e assim talvez não se perceba o quanto a serie é incrivel |
  |
| I haven't read the source material, whether it be the LN or the manga, but just from watching this episode I can tell that they really rushed it. I think this was supposed to be fairly emotional and revealing episode. But I only got a hint of both because things were moving too quickly and a lot of things were likely cut out. There's no way this should've been one episode. At least make it 1.5. |
| Aw man why did Senju have to die :( Also... nooooo Enjuuuuu!!!! Corrosion level too high, 42% ?!?!? please don't die. This episode was ok, things escalated from Rentarou's guts being blown out again and then using some kind of adrenaline Gastrea shot he lived and knocked the masked dude off his socks into the ocean and then went to a mega ultra railgun known as the "Heaven's Ladder" which shoots projectiles in light speed and then it HAD to malfunction not to mention it just happened to run out of ammo which then Rentarou pulls off his right arm (Does it even come off that easily?) and uses it as a bullet. Then it is revealed that the old geezer hated the Cursed Children so he tried to destroy the world using a Stage 5 Gastrea. This is seriously insane. Though it may be chaotic, it was a good episode. I think it deserves a 4.5/5 but i just gave it a 5/5 anyways. |

| i am a friendly guy from the neighborhood, ima just put the link of the manga here (which got covered by this episode...) read it, read it and see the major difference and how they have ruined it >_> http://www.batoto.net/read/_/214270/black-bullet_ch12_by_asdf-scans/1 hmm they cut out tons of stuff from kayo too, rather this episode start with few chapters before this http://www.batoto.net/read/_/201861/black-bullet_ch11_by_asdf-scans/2 choose one of the two |

| Damn that kick to the face was terrible. |
| This episode felt like it was the last episode of the season. So the little girls have a limited lifespan and the more they use their power the closer they get to their death. |
| Best episode so far despite still being rushed. So Enju's body condition is worse than told.Deathflag risen. |
| Rentaro was awesome at the battle with Kagetane (I only feel bad for his daughter)! The anime is moving very fast, 4 eps and it covered the entire 1st volume of the light novels... Anyway, it was a good ep. Want more! |

| its feels fast but still awesome T_T that girl :( So Saaad |
| I swear if the gastrea are created through the Children and it being soo predictable like that, Imma be disappointed. I don't like how fast this is moving, if things don't get explained soon I may drop. I never drop. |
 |
| wtf.. killing gastrea is so boring. I like Senju, why they have to kill her? T_T I think my fav cursed child is Hiruko, shes so psycho.. |
 |
| The action was just ok this episode. Nothing really stood out to me, except that ending. Where He lied to Enju about her corrosion exam. They better not have her die in this show, or ill be pissed ! |
 |
| Anyone else feel like this was a final episode for the end of the season? |
 |
| stop killing off little girls please T.T where did dolphin-chan ever do wrong anyway~ and Kohina should have just join their party T.T have to agree that the pace would have been just right if it's done in 2 episodes :/ couldn't really enjoy the whole thing properly~~ but hey Enju's cute :3 |
| didnt like this one at all except the ending which showed Enju's test. Otherwise there was a lot of forced drama. Killing the stage 5 gastrea was the worst... Even from 50km it was big as a barn it was barely moving and a projectile moves at a speed of light and he couldnt take the shot... really ? I was facepalming so hard |

| Jesus..... This series is so painful. EDIT: WOW THE PEOPLE HERE ARE NEGATIVE. Like the anime equivalent of people who whine on and on about "OMMMGG1!! the book is better than the movie omgmgmgmmgmg!!!1" Get over yourselves. They are separate mediums, with separate time allotted to work on them. Is it rushed? Yeah, if you read the LN or Manga or whatever before hand. But judging it as it's own thing, I think it's great. Just enough of everything. Just because you expected something else and now you're disappointed doesn't mean this anime is terrible. |

DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE." It's rushed, but the episode are only 13 and they had not much time to do the project. Simply assuming that they can't adapt properly without analyzing the predicament that the studio has faced is not a bold move, plus even already dropped the show at EPISODE 4 and mocked the studio and such? Ask yourself, do you think that you are capable of making a better adaptation that of what the studio are doing right now? No? Yeah, I forgot. Most of the people here can't even created a simple animation scene, eh?..I'd realized of my incompetence so no complaint from me, ever. Tremendous episode. |
