Wasn't really liking the previous episodes all that much but I've gotta say this episode was pretty impressive. The action scenes were just awesome to watch and especially so with Akihito's sick transformation scene and everyone trying to contain him. Damn, he's got some legit hidden power. The animation was great as well. Meh at Mirai's hug or blood saving him but oh well.

Dat ringtone.

All you need is love (all together now). Lol, magical hugs solve everything. All joking aside this episode was super sweet and I had almost to many feels to handle, although this did feel like something that would come towards the end of a series. I'm so excited for what's to come :)

You might not have seen the scene after the ED? It looks like someone stole it.
Indeed, Mitsuki's mom did it. She switched the hollow shadow's stone with a normal one in the confusion... but couldn't she leave at least a pricier one? talk about making a new meaning for "petty thief" XD
I saw this ending and almost went ballistic. I guess there is no honor among spirit world warriors. This stone would have financially set Mirai up for years.
What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about?

Well I changed my stance on Hiroomi. He's not an ass. He's pretty chill. That fucking ringtone! LOL! Very enjoyable show. Did't expect Akihito to go berserk. Damn he's powerful. Onto the next episode!

Mirai was awesome, and finally the statement of her cursed blood makes sense.

I loved the bit where Akihito was in the cage.

Okay, the action scenes were cool and all, but, let me get this straight...

A few episodes earlier she had no qualms whatsoever about penetrating him with her magical stick 4 da lulz even though he said no

But now, when he actually needs help, she's hesitating?

This doesn't make sense

What a load of BS

The episode was pretty entertaining... But... Hadn't she already stabbed him many times before? Why didn't his Youmu side show its face before then? They said he gets like that everytime he's severely injured :/

All I know is, fuck that black haired lady talking to that mysterious man who took the original shadow's hollow gem thingy. Fuck her and no, I didn't cry this episode. Hopefully they tie this up in the end.

The action scenes are epic. I hope they'll show more of Akihito's past. He seems kinda interesting.

Decent episode, I guess.

Wow, really don't understand why people are so worked up about the hug. It clearly wasn't the hug himself that got him back to normal: she was covered in her own blood, she literally burned him up, untill he reverted.

Also, pretty sure that shadow stone was not stolen for personal gain, but to keep the Society off Akihito's back.

Glad to see that it was the right decision starting this anime since even ghouls do appear. That aside this arc may be concluded with this and we can finally move past her having regrets.

Seriously, the animation and sound are so brutal in this anime. It really feels like watching a movie. It remembers me a lot the impact watching a Ufotable anime makes you feel.

Being honest I wasn't expecting Akihiko to have so much power, well, it's not like he can control it. In one way or another it had to be foreseeable since he's a hybrid, and hybrids are known for retaining the best qualities of both species.

The pacing was the same, fast but good.
The Sakura girl just disappeared out of the sudden, and Mitsuki's sister Izumi appeared and took the Hollow Shadow with her... after all that time the sealing team waited for her for some reason.

For me it was obvious... but some people...
I guess they wanted to complain and put attention in the first thing their eyes saw and then proceed to blame The Power of Love.

That ringtone XD
Nase family sure has cool exterminators. I wonder how that muffler thing works though.

That hug-brings-back-the-demon-to-his-senses was pretty much predictable.

Someone (izumi?) robbed Mirai of her deserved (and much needed) income. Not fair, I say.

GOD DAMN, that was outstanding.
Kuriyama has officially become one of the cuttest characters of all time for me, OMG *.* *.*



Love the fast pace, the plot and the thrilling scenes. Also, seriously, the detailed art of this anime is brilliant.
Love the relationship between Kuriyama and Akihito, its fucking adorable.

Wonder who is that girl who stole the Hollow Shadow's essense (?) and what organization is that.... Really looking forward to the next episode XD

Such a epic episode, I wished that this anime had a romance genre.
I think that old man in the ending was Akihiko's father.

The action looked flashy and all, but didn't reach me.

Same for the drama.

Didnt like how she was so reluctant to stabbing him when she did so many times.
Akihito is a strong Yomu, damn!

I liked the fight between Mirai and the Hollow Shadow though, looked really good.

Also poor Mirai losing the real stone for a mere 200 yen stone.

Finally, a decent episode.

I liked the part where her glasses lit up when she was trying to slay the demon.

For a halfie, Aki is so badass. I bet he'd be even stronger as a full demon *O*
Wish he beat up Mirai a bit more, but I GUESSSSSSS she made up for it a lil when she shared her food with him on his plate at the end >.>
If Mirai feels so guilty about killing Yui, I wonder why she won't let Sakura kill her for revenge? .-.

Best episode so far.

Seeing Akihito revealing his true powers were really cool, i hope there would be more episodes where this happens.

As for Mirai, this episode had lots of feels moments for her, altrough, her hesitation at that moment felt a bit forced.

Overall, an awsome episode, and i hope that this series will stay on this route and pacing.

So that Sakura was the sister of Yui who got killed by Kuriyama? The Shadow Kyoukai really had a strong power and ability. Kuriyama's almost failed to neutralize it. Fortunately, Kuriyama's power got boosted up and yeah, they success. The real shit is happening. Aki true form of Kyoukai really surprising. Kuriyama's realising her mistake and considering their fateful meet by taking more effort to her senpai. Aw such a sweet moments they had. Still, their reason toward each other really funny. Lets see how far their relationship after that incident. So close make it better!

Also, shit with that Mitsuki's older sister. Kuriyama and Aki both took that Shadow into defeated. But her sneaking way make fool of their hardworking and took that Kyokai gem by her own family. Damn, woman!

im glad the anime is starting to improve :D

okay, i can stress enough how amazing the animation is. imo it's just epic (★ ω ★)
great episode ^^

i was fine with the anime's comedy but not a lot from how much they overused it sometimes, although this episode definitely got the perfect amount <3

5/5 for this episode

And boi don't go stealing Mirai's goods; it's her property >_>

LOL I was right when I said Mirai got scammed in ep 2!
How naive one must be to believe that the reality-altering monster you defeated was basically a "nobody"???

Also, Kanbara turns out to be the REAL monster. Mirai can't even compare! LoL, maybe Mirai was right when she stabbed him in ep 1. Dude's a walking hydrogen bomb!

Omg, the endingㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

I really love Kuriyama and Aki, such a great episode I actually teared up when he was losing control and she realised how wrong she was about him. The ending is so cute too, they are on the same page now, they have great chemistry and I enjoy their little moments. I love Aki’s characterㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

I like how they don’t info dump and just let the worldbuilding unravel as the story goes. Very good episode♡
