More yoite please!

It's going to be fun for those who have browsed through it. (love the art) I am exited to find out what really happens.

It has stayed pretty close to the Manga so far so if it keeps it up I can tell it will be thrilling, just from the images I have seen.

I will openly spoil all on one point-there will e more Yoite, that I can say for certain.

Oh dear, how does it feel to be exited?

Of course, there would be something wrong otherwise. He does seem like either:
A. Sub-Final/Final Boss
B. Rival who joins the party later <--Nanka... Iya...

So, from listening to it and finding the timings, I can say that episode 04 seemed to be really boring. No real fights or anything, just a lot of talking and random attempts to be funny. But, that's from audio, I could be completely wrong.

Well if they take the B path with Yoite, it will be curious to see what they do to redeem him. Right now I'd be happy to see him whacked several times.

[Niu]

To the the above poster, technically there is nothing to redeem for Yoite.

From my own guesses Fuuma is more likely to be the last boss more than anything.
Kotarou san, no one is going to believe you are a good guy, ever.

[eipu]

well, i do agree that one of the selling points of nabari is the action scenes, with their stylishness and slickness; but it cannot survive with just that. It seems a lot of people have been complaining about the rather lack of action in this episode. There's no problem with an entire episode of exposition, as long as the plot progresses with it. I've seen quite a lot of people complaining about it without actually understanding the significance of all the talking in this episode.

@ tworble

makes me want to take a tiny peak at the raw ^^

[Tworble]

I thought episode 2 was boring until I saw it subbed. A lack of fighting won't do anything to hurt my interest, however as I am more interested in the story and characters.

eiou-I just skimmed through the second half of the second Volume and it gets really exciting. I got it from here-

Maybe if we post under it's translator recruitement add it will get noticed.

Thanks for the link ^^

[Tworble]

I kind of see Yoite as a psychologically messed up soldier fighting a weird war. I don't think he is unredeemable- (but I can't tell you why darn it)

[eipu]

Episode 4 subbed ^^

[Guardian Enzo]

Is it just me, or does the headband guy look exactly like Cho' of the Ten Swords from RK?

[Tworble]

Loved this episodes, I don't know where people are coming from calling it boring...it did just what it was supposed to -set us up for the next chapter of the story.

I REALLY want to know the words that go with the Manga images I have seen of chapters 8- onward- so I am looking forward to the next episode.

Spoiler for what I'm looking forward to in the next couple of episodes:

I want to see why that pervert guy and sensei fight, watch Raimei kick butt, find out about that cat and why Yoite takes Miharu.

[Sinestra]

I guess the honeymoon is over looks the story is really going to get moving from here. I enjoyed the last episode after all the carnage that the previous 2 episodes brought forth. I have really warmed up to the series i think i will stick it out now although I still have my doubts about certain aspects of the series im going to be optimistic for the time being

[mikesince83]

That woman Saraba has a shirt that defies the laws of gravity. Maybe she keeps it up with some sort of jutsu.

[Tworble]

Like they say in "Soul Eater" ;"The prologue is over".

I'm just curious how much of the rest of volume 2 will be in this...

Spoiler for very slight spoilers:

I can't wait to see Yoite, but so much happens before he appears next that I don't know if we will see him much next episode.

Totally thought the same thing.

Fuuma-dono = made of win Kumohiro's reaction to Miharu's little mind game was hilarious XD Miharu's wings popped back up

Lots of talking but I liked it since I finally got a good idea to whats going on.

[Tworble]

I am still confused about the "Kind of Nabari" business and how that comes into play. Are they sealing it because he "Doesn't" want to be king?

I wouldn't mind seeing him as an all powerful god myself.

[LKK]

^^ I'm a little confused about that myself. But I think becoming Miharu becoming king of the Nabari is separate from sealing the Shin-whatever within him. I get the feeling that the Shin-whatever would be very dangerous to let loose. So they want to seal it in permanently. However, because Miharu has the Shin-whatever inside him, that qualifies him to become the king according to sensei. (I think. Not 100% sure about that.) So what sensei wants is for Miharu to become king with the Shin sealed inside him for safety. Miharu just wants the Shin sealed though. He doesn't care about becoming king. That's my understanding.

You are right. The hidden Shin-whatever is something in him which will allow him to conquer the ninja world (hence Nabari no ou). But even though he doesn't want to learn how to use the power yet, I have a feeling that Miharu will be forced to in future events whether he likes it or not. Maybe he will change and accept the power by the end. *shrugs*

I have the same feeling. I'd bet money it.

The real question is who will be in charge of that power? The shin-whatever? Or our diffident devil boy, Miharu? The shin-whatever strikes me as wanting to dominate Miharu (along with dominating the rest of the world). Miharu strikes me as someone who won't be dominated. I foresee an internal power struggle between the two for control of Miharu's physical form. The question is who will win in the end?
