| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Jesus Christ, that cat girl just can't keep her paws off of Shinichirou, can she? Seems like the usual action aside from an interesting object that was delivered this episode. But as usual, it felt repetitive as hell with the pacing. Seems like this ended more or less of a happy direction this time around though. |

| Boring episode. |
| Oh god who are you people? |
chakracat said: Boring episode. ? I think it was best episode. |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| I thought the rule of knowing someone's true name to have control over them only applied to the specters only. It was never mentioned until now that it's the same for humans/mage as well. In that case, this is the perfect chance for Shinichirou to become an evil harem God. Just (forcibly) kiss the girls you take an interest on and that's it! Notice Shinichirou doesn't get flustered at all anymore even when a naked Tamako jumps on top of him. I guess he's used to seeing her shining Oppai and Oshiri. Dark Sakuya was admittedly quite awesome, at least in terms of battling. I actually prefer her over the normal one. Such a shame Shinichirou sexually harassed her and found out her true name. Below average episode. The endcards continue to be amazing though!  |
 |
| Best episode so far. Which isn't saying much, I know. Sakuya finally got some character development, and Shinichirou is actually doing something without someone to tell him what to do! |
| Now we know why Sakuya wants to be the head of the household, too bad for her Shinichirou is gonna be it. |
| Best episode yet, i enjoyed it. |
Shaniyaz said: The rule is grounded in actual Eastern mysticism. Anyone who knows even a little about it would be aware of that fact before watching the show in the first place. As such, for a Japanese audience, there was no need to specify that it works on people too - it's already a well-known and established belief. I thought the rule of knowing someone's true name to have control over them only applied to the specters only. It was never mentioned until now that it's the same for humans/mage as well. In that case, this is the perfect chance for Shinichirou to become an evil harem God. Just (forcibly) kiss the girls you take an interest on and that's it! As is par for the course, they've completely changed the plot again, so they'll be handling the entire Shimazu family completely differently. And altogether, the episode wasn't that good except for the portent of a potentially less-abrasive Sakuya. Well, and all the ramblings on why the kiss was such a big deal can go the way of the dodo. As usual, end card is wonderful and steals the show. |
| Better episode but still not that good. |
| They totally pulled a Persona 4, except in reverse :D |
 |
| This episode was amazing!!!!! more of this anime please sucks its only going to be 10 ep T-T ending was super cute |
 |
| DAMN! they combined so many things and chapters into 1 episode and still are able to maintain a good flow and pacing :O that it's actually pretty impressive XD 5/5 |
 |
| why would they open the package? did they know Jokiharu (I think it was a letter J)? the end of the episode felt like a show stopper with the pair being shinichirouxsakuya |
 |
| Still hate so much Sakuya but I guess this episode softened a bit my hate. |
 |
| lol, okay they got me, sakuya has a cute side :p |
| pretty good ep |
 |
| An okay episode.....finally Sakuya showed her attractive side :) |

| Best episode of the series so far, but the pacing still feels a little off with the manga (the manga is great) in comparison, that said, with only 4 more episodes to go i don't see how they can adapt this well enough to get a good enough rating for a second season, which is sad since i truly love the manga. |
| She finally warmed up to Shinichirou. I was getting tired of her being herself. :/ Her nice side is more suited than she was before. |
| 3/5. Waiting for more episodes |
 |
| Sakuya's back story was pretty intricate. I don't understand how marrying a western mage would lower the magic pool here... and plus, the whole in-breeding within the family be incest? Welp, thanks for ruining her life Shinichirou. Since you've gone that far, why not just help her out by marrying into her family and becoming the next head? Oh right, if passing on his powers requiring him kissing girls, then wouldn't a kiss on Suseri have the same effect? Then he'd be in control of both successors to the Shimazu family, no? Not a bad deal, eh? I say go for it. Then he'd have his super harem. |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| Apart from learning about why Sakuya wants to be the head, this episode was pretty boring Meh episode with more BD advertising |
| Well this made absolutely no sense whatsoever. So the fake Sakuya accuses the real Sakuya for "forgetting all about Mother and Father" only seeking to be the head to get revenge. Sakuya denies this, then the fake Sakuya turns a 180 and beseeches her to accept that vengeance and hatred for the Shimazu family. So in the end what did the fake Sakuya want? 話がばらばらになちゃったな。 |
| Is Sakuya's tsundereness going to be toned down now then? My opinion of this anime would instantly improve if that was the case. Although, I still wouldn't call it fantastic. |
| Whoa, I feel somewhat rewarded for sticking with this show. This has to be the first episode that I enjoyed for the right reasons. When Sakuya isn't being all bitchy, it makes the show better. The backstory was rather interesting and I do empathize with her a bit more now. Only a bit though. :P |
 |
| Hmm I don't know. In my opinion it was not as amazing as some people here have called it, however it is a good change to see Sakuya's tsundere level going down... |

Welp, thanks for ruining her life Shinichirou Welp, letting her die would be better I agree fo' sure. She finally warmed up to Shinichirou. I was getting tired of her being herself. :/ Her nice side is more suited than she was before. Rest asured - she will be back to her usual self next episode. This shit never learns from itself. So the fake Sakuya accuses the real Sakuya for "forgetting all about Mother and Father" only seeking to be the head to get revenge. Sakuya denies this, then the fake Sakuya turns a 180 and beseeches her to accept that vengeance and hatred for the Shimazu family. So in the end what did the fake Sakuya want? 話がばらばらになちゃったな。 Basicaly they tried to copy Persona and failed horribly. That was amazing - you SHOULD deny your feelings deep inside instead of accepting them and moving on because it will help you. Somehow. Yeah... Fuck that man. Also - there are 4 episodes left with no chances for a sequel. If they are really planning to wrap this up in 4 episodes than maaaan it is gonna be a marvel to watch xD |

| The mirror will show the dark side of whoever gets sucked inside. But for the sake for Sakuya's backstory this episode let's just give an evil Sakuya and mindfuck her while we leave Shinichirou alone. As for Sakuya's reason for becoming the head... why not both? She could just become the head, kill the rest of the clan and find out the truth about her parents. After all the bullshit Sakuya did in the previous few eps, this one dere-dere moment isn't going to help much. Still rooting for Suseri. L-Ryoshi said: Welp, thanks for ruining her life Shinichirou. Since you've gone that far, why not just help her out by marrying into her family and becoming the next head? Oh right, if passing on his powers requiring him kissing girls, then wouldn't a kiss on Suseri have the same effect? Then he'd be in control of both successors to the Shimazu family, no? Not a bad deal, eh? I say go for it. Then he'd have his super harem. I've also wondered about that. If anybody in that clan can't have their true name revealed, why does Suseri want to kiss Shinichirou so badly despite the fact that he can find out her true name and she can't be the next head. |
| I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN |
| Seems like Sakuya is now getting softer to Shinichirou... |
 |
| Wow, first good episode in ages! Though I suppose it may only be because I am comparing it with the other terrible ones ... XD So Sakuya's worried about not being able to become the leader now and the family is having a discussion about that as well. They get sent a mirror and she and Shinichirou get sucked into it ... I think that was an interesting way of getting her to look at herself and how she feels and then choosing to "accept" it or not. I was gonna be interested with her embracing her hatred, but Shinichirou intervenes and she realizes she's grown too. Clever of Shinichirou to find out the true name of the fake Sakuya ... but hmm, I guess he can control who he gives power to then? Otherwise it wouldn't make any sense and their opponent would just become stronger XD Seems like they finally get to first name basis and Sakuya's nicer side is showing. Some good character development ... even for Suseri, who said it wouldn't feel right to win that way. Hopefully it keeps getting better! On the right track for once! :O |
| A decent episode. We did see Sakuya's cute side, but still does not change or improve the way I view her. |
| Solid episode and cute ending! |
 |
| Ah, I love it when tsunderes act so cute :) |
 "No matter how far you travel, you can never get away from yourself." -- Murakami Haruki |
| Dam lol knew that mirror was gonna be like the darkness within her or something |
| Tamako is the best . She is the only one who cares about Shinichirou not his ability to know names by kissing , aside from Sakuya who is a tsundere so she doesn't show interest in him even if she kind of like him . |
| I would totally just open every package someone sends me if I knew that a mage was out there trying to kill me... really smart protagonists in this anime. "I let my guard down". No, you're just stupid. |
| So, they only needed 6 fuckin episodes to just completely changed Isuca personality into a likeable girl, now? No way, man. Even Kirino had more development than this copycat bland girl. Lmao. What else apart from the blonde girl personality were softened all of sudden because of that mirror? Suseri just gave up. Now the double MC officially became a couple. Was i care much? At least that Western Witch had an intrigueing story to be following up. I just hope she could give me a satisfaction instead having a mere hope with those goddamned MC. Funny, how Kousuisen actually powerful being, but so easily getting caught by MC, received the kissed and she just enjoyed it without any meaningful resistance. I mean, she was the first one that denied the MC kissing. But when they kissed, ah, what a bitchy spirit. Congratulations, MC, now you officially not as densed as some bland MC out there. But still, i don't quite attached with his appearance until this one. Even with their sweet moments in the end. No. Its disgusting. Lmao. Despite the plot point still horrible as fuck, the direction into the situations still worst than before, i can't this episode seriously. At least its a fine episode with the help of the reckless act of Tamako that just casualty hugged the forced male MC in nudity. Love you, my neko girl! |
