| Yusa-san's character... he was with the mysterious boy during rainy day? Revealing of shocking truth about his experiments on the threesomes. Also, the mysterious boy was "Homongulus"? |

|
| Biased opinion ahead. As expected - episode focused on Debito = instant awesome. Every other character is more interesting than Liberta and Nova, it just happened that this time the spotlight was stolen by the best one in the entire show. |
| This episode was crazy dude creating humans sick bastard. |
 |
| Debito should really keep his hair down as well as the eye patch off, looks better. Shocked I like where the plot is going even if it became more intense and mysteryious, hopefully all feelings can be resolved |

| Debito psycho mode O_o |
Nothing ventured, nothing gained (Girls und Panzer der Film ) / from Nishizumi Miho |
| Best episode so far imo. I love Debito. <3 |
| Wow nice ep. |
| what no punishment thhis T.T Liberta and Nova were cute Debito looked awesome and Jolly is still annoying |
| Ahem, Debito. |
 |
| Cool episode! Wants more!! Had some funny parts like the cleaning around the church...that is, before Jolly came. Elmo a homunculus? Well I thought he was a product of Jolly's researches but didn't think of him as a homunculus. And it felt really bad when Jolly told Felicitá that Pace, Debito and Luca are being used as contractors to the Arcana by Jolly. I wonder if Dante had known about this because he stopped Nova and Libertá from interfering and didn't look surprised. That Pace vs Jolly was kind of a short battle. No punishment this time? T.T And why Jolly never gets punished?? I wanna see this. |
  |
| What the f*ck ? Homunculus ? Is this show turning into Fullmetal Alchemist or what . |
 |
| Not my favorite episode.... I knew it! Elmo wasn't human after all. (Yeah reminds me of FMA as well) Is the next episode gonna be focused on the Duello? That'd be interesting! Is it just me or the "punishment filler" thing at the end wasn't there? |
| DUEL FUCKING WHERE |
 |
| omg like 4 eps left i think its still going in a pree slow pace |
 |
| Whoa. Jolly is actually an alchemist. I was looking forward to the punishment omake (the sinner)... but they don't have it this time. |

| I liked episode 8 because mainly Debito is my fav character... And /lol/ looks like I wasn't the only one thinking it's kinda turning into FMA. Before you know it, that story about that monster story Debito told would actually relate to the 3 of them, that kid and Jolly... Idk, this anime is still lacking something but i still continue to watch this series maybe because im expecting something big and WOW later... |
| Debito looks like a total bad ass with his hair down :D |
 |
| I was hoping for an episode without Nova and Liberta, but of course they had to show up at some point ... |
 |
| Not really my favourite episode, but still I really enjoyed this one. When Elmo mentioned something about Jolly's alchemy books, I knew instantly that he wasn't a real human (homunculus > alchemy). Yes, I blame that on FMA. Anyway, Pace, Luca, Debito, and Jolly all seem very interesting together. And was the Duello mentioned in the preview at some point? |
| Jolly is a scumbag, what a dick. hope he gets his one of these times. |
| The Duello in the next episode ? Really ? Your not trolling me right ?! |
 |
SakuraRainbow said: I don't see how the fact homunculi are involved makes it similar to Full Metal Alchemist. It's not as if that show invented the concept. To anyone who's seen FMA, when you hear homunculus what's the first thing you think of? Its not like it's something common in anime either so it's only obvious that people would connect it with FMA. Though these are the only similarities that these two have. |
 |
| Lol, everyone went into berserk mode expect the main trio. |
 |
UnbornMVs said: What the f*ck ? Homunculus ? Is this show turning into Fullmetal Alchemist or what . The idea of a homunculus existed way before FMA's manga even began. It's been told in myths for hundreds of years. |

| All the tension is building up towards the Duello, but when will it happen? |
 |
| This is probably the first episode in this anime I truly enjoyed (first ep was too cliche for me). I really liked that we learn more about Jolly and his relationship with other family members (if they can be called a family). Maybe Papa told Jolly to play a semi-villainous character to make duellos more... uh... passionate? He looks like the type to be able to do anything for his superiors. Debito reminded me of Zero both with his looks with his hair down and way of acting. I don't like him... a lot. Actually, I like Jolly a lot more. Heck, Jolly, Luca and Nova are he only reasons I'm still watching this. (Minor FMA spoilers ahead, comparison of this homunculus and homunculi in FMA.) (short spoiler free version) In short, while this anime has a real and perfect homunculus, FMA NEVER had a real homunculus. FMA only used the term to describe artificial beings that had human looks to a degree. (Of course, I'm talking about manga and FMAB. In FMA anime they were zombies.) |

| Best episode so far imo... shit that was actually important happened... one word = DEBITO. Him, Luca, and Jolly are the hottest imo. |
  |
| No punishment game? D8 Debito, though. <3 |
| [insert awesome signature here] |
| debito looks way better with his hair down. good episode but i want duels for god sake. |
UnbornMVs said: What the f*ck ? Homunculus ? Is this show turning into Fullmetal Alchemist or what . Homunculus are often mentioned in mythology. It's not like the show itself is stealing ideas from FMA, but more or less drawing inspiration from pre-existing mythology as well as philosophy, and obviously alchemy. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/homunculus |
| ...I just realized somthing...i like the supporting charactors more than the main!! |
 |
| Well it seems next episode papa will explain why he created the arcana duello.. or maybe not. I love the bad guy of this series Jolly <3 why there wasn't punishment on this episode ;n;? |
UnbornMVs said: What the f*ck ? Homunculus ? Is this show turning into Fullmetal Alchemist or what . One more reason to like Arcana Famiglia! I don't think is turning into FMA, but I like the similarities! |
| Jolly is such an annoying character and Felicita is even worse for defending him, why are all those shoujo heroines so set on believing that everyone is good and has a pure heart and shit like that? Jolly is a mad scientist who expertimented on 3 family members and created a homunculus, of course he'd be a real sweetheart and innocent person deep down >.> |
| Debito, fawking hawt! |
| Honobono Log - best slice of life short -------------------------------------------- most kawaii loli overlord ---------------------------- Donquixote Doflamingo AMV - Control |
| Ok, this was the best episode yet, I just can't get enough of this anime at this point. And Jolly.. man, he's my favorite character for sure! closely followed by Dante and then Liberta. And the ED is surely one of the best ever! |
  |
| Debito always flirtatious *sighhhhh* D;> <3 I'm hit with more chibi versions of the boys. Cute af. Stupid Fel. Nova and Liberta sugarcoated her. Of course it's her damn fault =____= stop tryna force people to get along when you know nothing about their past. Some people aren't meant to be friendly with each other so leave them be. |
