Not bad I guess. Kurumi's character is fairly interesting. Just how is he gonna save her...
Shidou's sister is also a spirit? So what does it make him be? Will they ever explain his healing ability?

Tohko is a bit undeveloped. She needs more screentime.

My Little Sister Can't Be a Spirit!

Otherwise great episode so far. Some scenes could have a bit more impact while others felt slightly rushed. I wondered who directed this episode.

So they are from two different companies or what? Is no one else trying to stop the spirits? O_O
Am I the only one who is annoyed by the lack of background informations here?

Wow! This episode was awesome :D So it seems like Kurumi has a LOT of powers, seeing as how she can control when spacequakes appear for one and also have multiple copies of herself! Dunno how Origami and Tohka defeated her clones but maybe she got distracted when she killed herself. That scene was SO GOOD, because honestly I felt a little cheated when she was going to accept what Shido was offering because it seemed kind of sudden ... then THE ARM LOL. I honestly thought they were gonna go in a "I'm haunted by an evil spirit" type of plotline but NOPE it was just her from another time coming back XD One thing that bothers me is they don't keep the "time" of her eye consistent to show how much power she has (and is regenerating/using with her powers) but I guess they are just lazy. I loved when she was fighting Mana and then it was like ... I'm not even using my artifact (I forget what it's called :P) yet XD Then of course, we gotta talk about Kotori and how she has powers too ... she's not a Spirit though right?! She just has powers I guess and an artifact thingy too?! It looks like Origami knows what's going on here at least :P Looks like next episode we've got the fight but it won't turn out too well because Origami gets into the hospital? D:

Kurumi is one naughty girl. And, what a reveal, I really didn’t see that coming.

This ep is goddamn intense!

I don't like how Shido acts as if he doesn't know ANYTHING about what was going on, though it's acceptable since he literally just saw Kurumi killing some guy followed by Mana killing that Kurumi and admitting that she's used to killing. But the fact that he seemed oblivious about all of these in front of her sister does infuriate me.

Kotori meets and talks with Mana... Just some satisfying moments all around, especially when each of them reveals the other's affiliation, each one of their reactions is good. So they are all basically are connected in some ways, albeit they're from a separate branch of the worldwide anti-spirit organizations. Kotori's branch seeks to find a solution through love rather than violence, which is why they didn't get those realizers. Makes sense.

Oh, corrupt organization modified Mana's bodies so she could store more magic! (Her name suits her) However, in return, she can only live up to 10 years, yet another revelation that may be connected to why her past memories are unrecallable as of right now.

Just as I thought Kurumi's power is already OP enough. It gets even more powerful!

Kurumi can basically live for hundred maybe thousands of years since she could use the time barrier to trap living beings and steal their lifespan for herself.
And wow, the Kurumi clones are actually herself from different points in time. She could not only avoid getting killed but can also adapt and change her tactics using this!
And finally... Kurumi could literally start a spatial quake whenever she wished to and even cancel it... Bruh damn OP!

Props for Shido's determination to jump off that ledge and convinced Kurumi, even though that was a waste of effort, it's a great shot!

Well, I thought that Kotori also got a spirit power of her own after knowing that Shido has a spirit power of her own. But damn, didn't think she's a full sledged spirit that could fend off a damn spatial quake!!!

Uhh, putting a "psychopath" into a generic ecchi anime really doesn't work, makes it feel forced and just edgy. Well, "suiciding" for her to stop, damn...

I wasn't surprised, that there are several Kurumis. It's a pretty useful ability and the downside doesn't seem to bother her.

Little sister #1 to the rescue. I like her appearance as a spirit.

I wonder how they will fix that dilemma.

...Kurumi's cheating. She doesn't have the right to be the fusion between two of my favorite characters (with one being my all-time favorite from any type of media). Not to mention she sounds like Lain. How am I supposed not to love her now ?!
No really, I'm truly surprised but she's actually a very good character, this show doesn't deserve her ! Now I'm starting to see what makes her so popular...

Kurumi just seems too op, guess Kotori has a plan.

Ever since Kurumi came to this anime, it just became much more interesting and better.
