It looks like it's inside of the chapel to me.

It actually reminded of the chapel. I thought the book was a bible.

It's a chapel. Look at the windows and there are also benches.

Episode seems to be great if this stuff is legit.

[Halko]

Someone told me that...

Spoiler for regarding blondie:

Ushiromiya Leon(Blondie) is the son of Nappi and Krauss

Is this true~?

[Escargotage]

Spoiler for EP7:

I wouldn't put it past Bernkastel to work another miracle and bring back Natsuhi's son... again.

[Kitsu]

Spoiler for Episode 7:

That would be kind of awesome but.... somehow...weird. What does the character page say about him?
Edit: I checked and I'm shocked...I think it really is stated there.
Krauss and Natsuhi's first child... also that Jessica is the second child. Oh lawd if this is for real..it would be all kind of awesome and Krauss family side might become my favorite.

I have reason to believe that "Rion" is NOT "Leon."

If it were "Leon," then the kana of Rion's name would read れおん (Reon). That is NOT the case. "Rion" is spelled りおん with a り (ri), not a れ (re). The name "Leon" in Katakana is レオン. "Rion" would be リオン. Because of this, and based on what I have read on Wikipedia, the most plausible names to give "Rion" would be "Lion" or "Lions." Both are REAL Western names, just like the names of almost all other Ushiromiya-born people.

Spoiler for EP7:

"Jessica is my little sister. Is there a need to call for her...?"
"...No, it's fine."

[Mikachiru]

*still waiting for someone to come up with a screenshot that says Lion is a woman...*

Very hopeful still. And very much so in denial. ;~;

DAMMIT, RYUKISHI!!

DAMMIT, RYUKISHI!!

Spoiler for episode 7:

He is male, I'm certain by now... If he were femal it would have been said somewhere by now.

Needless to say I really want him to be Jessica's brother...I reaaaaaaally want this.

Added the image that quote goes along with.

And another cropped up, translation that is.

Spoiler for EP7:

"Excuse me, but...who are you? I am Ushiromiya Krauss. Agent of the chief mourner. This is my child Leon."
"Nice to meet you. I am Ushiromiya Leon."



"'Ri' from 'science,' and 'on' from 'to control.' It reads as 'Leon.' ...It's not a very Japanese-sounding name."
"......."

Don't ruin it for me Katsu.

I agree with you on the latter.

Well wouldn't "Rion" basically sound the same as "Leon" from the engrish?

According to what I can find The name Leon is pronounced Lee- ahn so I think it makes sense.

"a servant cannot be the culprit."



"cut it out. The maid isn't the culprit."

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Also, as someone who well doesn't go to 4chan, which boards are dealing with this stuff?

[Falsetto]

Spoiler for EP7:

S-Shannon?

[Escargotage]

oh, bah, photobucket must've deleted them. here they are, again.

Spoiler for EP7:

"Cut it out. The maid isn't the culprit."

and another translated screenshot.

Spoiler for EP7:

"...Even in this condition?"
"I've got no interest in anyone but Rosa, gah--"

[Halko]

The mystery is solvable in 4 episodes... hmm..

[Renall]

I'm still not entirely convinced it's not all fake, honestly.

In every instance the name "Leon" is said aloud in Japanese, its romaji was "Reon" (pronounced with a short "e" sound), not "Rion" (pronounced with a long "e" sound).

The way something sounds in English doesn't always denote the way it sounds in Japanese. Take "Beatrice" for example. The Japanese pronounce the name similar to how it is said in Italian, where the name was derived from the Latin "Beatrix," with a short "e" sound and a "ch" standing in for the "c." In English, it is pronounced with a long "e" and soft "c" sound. Similarly, Leon" is pronounced with a short "e" sound rather than a long one in most other Western languages where it became prominent, most notably German.
