| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Alka vs wolves? Eh... Pretty rough episode for her to live in fear and shit. The fact that she has that tattoo constantly makes her a target like in this episode, sigh. [d]Damn, watching this episode made me feel cold. Anyways, still the same usual stuff except the ending. |

| NO BREAKS ON THE SUFFERING TRAIN |
| "My tables-meet it is I set it down That one may smile, and smile, and be a villain." |
| All of Aruka's memories of the people she has killed in the past are clashing against her. Looks like the two servants of Jin Varel are trying to do some ritual or revival thing to bring Jin Varel back. Didn't expect that ending with both the couple dying though that was pretty sad. |

Humza_96 said: Wouldn't there be 3 episodes left?With Jin Varel coming back from the dead I wonder how they're going to finish off the anime in 2 episodes. Or are they gonna leave it on a cliffhanger and expect us to believe a 2nd season is on its way? Anyway, I liked this episode but it could have been better. Alka always managing to get her self into bad situations :c |
IZEROII said: If you legitimately enjoyed this as a series then I honestly believe you need to reevaluate your definition of entertainment because watching tin foil blow in the wind probably is a way you kill time. SolviteSekai said: Lol wish fulfillment. It's always been my wish to be a greasy lolicon with a mullet who plays Civ all day every day. He got me. |
| Karen says, "Revenge really is pointless..." while relaxing with her husband's remains by her side. XD Though she later burns everything that's related to him. I wonder if she's coming back to her senses.. How come neither Hazuki and Roana say anything about the smoke? It must've smelled bad too! Felt a bit bad for the couple since they lost their daughter to Aruka and now can't really avenge her death by attacking her in an injured state. What a tragic ending that was.. More suffering for Aruka. Looks like Ran is in process of reviving Jin. Expecting her to come back stronger. Good episode. That white-haired philosophical guy needs to appear again. |

| you what's wrong with this episode it was good but the set up was bad in short time about what 3 to 4 episode including this to make her feel guilt i wish they just took there time. what are the chances of meeting the parents of someone you have killed and before she meet the wife of someone she killed i tell you the setup was bad. and i think everyone here said (get out of there Alka you gonna get them killed) and sure enough |
| "Happiness is like glass. It may be all around you, yet be invisible. But if you change your angle of viewing a little, then it will reflect light more beautifully than any other object around you." |
| Well, that was tragic |
| Tragic episode, that husband was an idiot. |
My Candies:     |
| The "people-who-befriends-Alka-gets-killed" streak continues. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| Bad luck always surrounds Alka. I mean, people die when she's around. Innocent people. Yes, Jin Varrel is still alive. |
| Everyone she develops a liking for just dies right in front of her eyes. :"l Well, curious to see how the anime wraps up, although there might be something like a cliff hanger to make us want to play the game, that sort of anime ;-; |
| so is alka supposed to be "feeling" now??!! she just looks like some one on meth o.O ... |
 |
| The first 6 episodes were pretty pointless, i wish the anime started out like this to give it more time. If we had 4 episodes with these characters we would have all been crying that they both died. But not we get half an episode of them and they die. |
| wow what an episode.. sadly the recent episodes and this one show why 13 episodes is not enough. this should be around halfway of the series with alka becoming human etc. but now there are only 3 episodes left |
| and that just happened this anime went from action to psychological in 2 eps |
 |
| Wow this episode was great,that old fool killed his wife then himself,and now they r going to revive Jin Varrel. Can't wait for the next 1. |
  |
| A lot of deaths in this Anime, but this episode hit me harder than all the other ones.. :'( |
| Godam, this episode had all of my sympathy. |
 |
| Fuck...3 more episodes. Just end. Just flipping end. |
| You know, this anime was good before alka started getting all emo and shit. Now, its just stupid. Its ending up to be just like all the anime from last season, started out great, but ended like shit. |
| Theirs no escaping it Alka;(. Another episode I liked. Ive honestly enjoyed this show overall. |
 |
| Poor Alka, having to bear a burden... |
 |
| Gotta give an honorable mention to the music of this episode. Taro Iwashiro did a great job. |
monokuma-k said: You know, this anime was good before alka started getting all emo and shit. Now, its just stupid. Its ending up to be just like all the anime from last season, started out great, but ended like shit. People are really hard to please. Before a lot of people were like "Give Alka some personalities, damn it!!" and now she actually has one there's still someone complaining. Is it really that hard to see that this anime was always about Alka being more human? I realized this since episode 4 already. Actually reading some of the comments here made me face-palmed, it's like they don't even try to look at the bigger context and don't have enough patience for the story to play out. |
 |
| 4/5 The evolving nature of his subjects, starting with Alka I'm liking, nothing great at the end, but the plot and narrative have become less dull beginning; who expected it. Drawings and animations just enough! ^ ^ I'm curious to see how the series ends. |
 |
| Is author trying to make me feel sorry for Alka? I mean, she killed dozens upon dozens upon dozens of people, most of them being guilty of something and well, I don't hate her for that. Even proprietress' husband was probably guilty of stepping on someones heel. But the person she killed here (in past) was almost a child. I get assassins do what they're hired for, but am I supposed to feel sorry when child murderer gets all emo over his/her past? I can't do that. Hell, at this point they've shown 2 of her past crimes, one being a guy that tried to run away with a woman he loves and another being young girl living with her parents, killed for God knows what reason. After all is said and done all I want is to see Alka suffer more. Much more. Let the bjatch suffer, everyone else did, why would she be an exception. |

| lol ok, this series is now officially hilarious. It's really trying to come off as dark and edgy by suddenly killing people but it's happened so often now that I'd be shocked if someone didn't die in an episode. Plus they only ever kill redshirts that were introduced that episode, I feel nothing for these people. I like that they're actually making Alka think about her past actions and the effect they had on people but everyone else are just sacks of meat that we're supposed to feel sorry for and be shocked at when they die. |
| Never seen Alka so worn out. Poor couple, but it was expected... Are they seriously reviving Jin >.> |
| I immediately knew as soon as that guy started feeling hatred towards Alka, he was gonna shoot her, miss, and hit his wife by accident. It's like whoever Alka follows, dies. Not to forget the ridiculous amounts of inhaling and exhaling this episode. |

| What a boring episode........ Wtf is happening here, jin back? >< Great job, only a few more episodes to go and it seems to be going with plot holes. |

| The feels train continues and now we get the revenge from the victims episode. |
 |
| *father shoots mother* *father kills self 4 killing mother* Aruka: "mission complete" thats wat i thought when i saw that scene |
| Talk about a strange twist of fate. I can see why revenge is pointless. Husband attempts to get revenge by taking Alka's life, but ends up killing his own wife instead. Poor Hana... I'm not to sure about what's going on in Karen's head. I'm don't think Karen's too sure either. Sent with Mal Updater |

| wtfwtfwtfnooooowhyyyyyy Again, this show is entertaining, but so messed up. |
~my list
| Dam that was pretty cruel. |
| I really cried on this episode TT^TT So much feels TT^TT |
 - barely alive - |
| Alka doesn't even have to try to kill people. Just meeting them is enough. They kill themselves. Certainly the most skilled assassin of all time, lol. nina4life said: Is author trying to make me feel sorry for Alka?

No the big problem here is that it makes no sense for anyone to hire a murderer and a especially i high skilled one like her for killing such a child of such peaceful folks. Seriously who wants such a child dead?It seemed more like a bad excuse so they can make another dramatic episode. On the other hand i enjoy such episodes and they seem better for this show that the previous action ones. |
| Okay episode, good it's only 3 more! |
 |
| This anime.. just.. why xD Every single person who is nice to her Dies in one way or another.. The Writers of this anime should justgo away |
