The most amazing thing just happened. It seems that Karas 4 aired on TV yesterday in preparation for the DVD release. I can hardly believe it's not going to be late... Again.

Just... wow.

Hah, I've been watching and re-watching 1-3 ever since their conception. Yes, Karas is THAT special to me.

Sad ol' me...

NoSanninWa · 2007-06-27, 05:21

Then would you be so kind as to post a short overview the important points from episodes 1-3 for those of us who watched it a long time ago?

Psychodragon · 2007-07-01, 22:15

Anyone want spoiler drop down's with this? Otherwise I'll just type everything I know and being "disrespectful" for the people that have not seen these episodes.

Sorry I don't check animesuki forums too often, but now that someone's requested some important plot points, I'll be glad to drop some info, soon. Have to go to bed now. I've got work in the morning...in corporate America. Gee I feel old.

DieH@rd · 2007-07-02, 05:12

You can write spoilers, but use spoiler tag.

Damn, no one even released RAW on the net...

Psychodragon · 2007-07-02, 23:35

Have to admit, Wikipedia has some good information. It DOES save me some time. I'm going to post what Wiki has. Credit goes to the people who actually wrote it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karas_(anime)

Spoiler:

Ep1) Eko is fighting and eventually killing a Karas. Three years later, Kure witnesses an attack on a film crew by a water demon and survives. He is sent to a new police department with Sagisaka and begins investigating the bizarre murders, which Sagisaka believes they are done by youkai. He and his ally, Kure, are also hunting Nue, because they believe he may have something to do with the incident in the subway restroom. Meanwhile, demon hunter Nue is on the trail of Suiko. His assassination attempt is interrupted by the new Karas. Otoha enters and engages Suiko in combat, and easily kills him.

Ep2) It is revealed that Sagisaka believes in youkai because his daughter, sole survivor of a brutal demon attack at her school, is one of the few who lived to tell about the demons. But she is hospitalized for mental/emotional problems caused by the demon attack, and her father is still waiting to get her testimony of the events. Kure and Sagisaka pursue Nue and run into the red car Mikura, which attacks them. Nue attacks the car, but is unable to kill it, and is injured before Otoha appears in Karas form and kills it.

Ep3) Nue and Otoha face off, and Yurine orders Otoha to kill him. Nue's yokai friend pleads for Nue's life, and Otoha is unable to bring himself to attack Nue because he feels that Nue isn't evil. Nue flees with a bad injury. Meanwhile, Eko and his minions move their plans forward; it is revealed that Eko is using another Yurine as a power source for his mechanised Mikura demons. Two of his minions, Tsuchigumo (a spider-woman) and Kamaitachi (A robotic blade-spinning freak) attack the city and Karas is forced to fight Tsuchigumo miles away from where Kamaitachi was making his move. As Karas engaged Tsuchigumi, Yurine realizes that Eko's true target was actually Otoha's human body hospitalized, "comatose" human form. Karas's fight with Kamaitachi is cut short once he sees his true body. At that point, Yurine lets her guard down and is abducted by Tsuchigumo. Without Yurine's aid, Karas loses power and disappears. Before Kamaitachi kills Otoha, Nue appears and fights with Kamaitachi, but is so weak that he can't transform into a Mikura when he runs out of bullets. Otoha awakens from his coma and kills Kamaitachi while in human form.

If any of you are confused on who's who, feel free to ask.
