The fact that he survived all those gun shots and being drowned (it sure as hell seemed he like he sunk really far after being shot), is also ridiculous. And since Ein survived the shot to chest too… it makes it even worse. Meh… 11-14 were alright, but I don’t care for one major plot development; Reiji deciding to train the new girl. It just doesn’t make much sense. Oh well, I’ll continue watching it anyway.
Agree with most of this especially the scythe master-reiji bit and the gunshot-drowning bits.

Ein's VA Ayahi Takagaki is a good singer, liked her singing voice ever since she showed it off seriously in the one Special A episode. She's currently in the seiyuu group Sphere which did the OP for Hatsukoi Limited and now Sora no Manimani. She has also done a few more OP/EDs, another recent one being Fight Ippatsu! Jūden-chan!! which she sings with Kaori Fukuhara.

Hash/Karou Choujo would know more! Crazy Darkness is really nice btw.

But you see, by not getting involved it wouldnt be his problem. Its kinda like taking a stray cat home.


Whoever Cal turns out to be will be 100% Reiji's fault, whether Reiji himself intended it or not. At this point, Reiji himself knows that, which is why I feel he has a duty to protect her, even if it is from Ein.

Anyone would want to avenge someone so close to them. Reiji has turned into an enabler, and Ein, who shouldve known better by now, is out assassinating people and any witnesses(good or bad) that would bring forth the hatred of people like Cal.

So yes, Reiji needs to prioritize Cal over Ein. Nothing bad should happen to her.

Why would it be 100% Reiji's fault? First of all no one is ever at 100% fault. It's not like she's his doll or something, he doesn't have absolute control over her and she is the one that needs to make her own decisions in the end. She decided to take revenge for her "sister" so whatever happens now it's neither of Reiji's fault since she was the one that took the money and made the decision to avenger her, she should know the consequences. Reiji has a stronger bond with Ein, she was the one that trained him and he lived with her when he had no memories and no one to rely on, similar to Cal and her "sister" relationship I guess? Nothing Bad should happen to her? Of course bad things will happen to her, she choose revenge so bad things are bound to happen to her and Reiji will be there for her unless he decides to choose Ein over her.

Um, Reiji is enabling her anger to manifest itself and providing her with the ability to carry it out and hasnt done anything substantial to try and sooth it to this point.

If your arguing that noone is 100% at fault, that is vague enough to be true, as nothing is 100% in this world, but there are times when 100% is the consensus.

Are you trying to argue that because Ein has come back, and Reiji might meet her again, that he should abandon all responsibilities he has accumalated to this point in order to try to make off with her once again?

Now, if that had worked the first time he tried it, I wouldve liked it happening.

Let me rephrase one thing I suppose, Reiji should not let anything bad happen to her.

My argument isnt who I like or Id prefer with Reiji, I like both of them, my argument is that Reiji should have a sense responsibility to whatever happens to Cal because of him, and make sure she is protected before he messes with Ein again.

If he messes with Ein and it ends up turning Cal into some monster or something, or it ends with her getting killed or something. I am totally faulting Reiji for that.

Theres what im trying to say, if it comes to a decision like that, it should be Cal, even if he likes Ein more.

That's only your opinion. Since Cal arrived she only brought trouble for Reiji. Since I prefer Ein over Cal anytime I guess that's why we have different opinions.

Good episode 15 !

Cal is so energetic and brillant !
Like i thought Elen is back and she's always Scythe's toy ...
Dunno how McCunnen etc ... will be able to survive in the fight . But it seems there'll be some bloods and Claudia will be alive .
(Damn , Elen's shoots remind me of "Wanted" but less far away .)

Phantom will polarize the fandom into Ein and Cal camps

It is inevitable and probably intended by Nitroplus to be this way.

But I welcome this.

The only things that's worth mentioning about the episode is that SM is the most annoying character of the series and

It's like an abusive relationship. Elen/Ein just does not know how to get away from it, with the SM that is.

So what does a victim in an abusive relationship think? Oh well, she is very much damaged goods right now. Let's hope Cal does not turn out the same way.

So Ein is back I don't know it that is a good thing or bad thing. Episode it self was decent especially at the end. I'm having a bad feeling here, I think Cal is not going to be too happy learning about Ein, by the way the preview was presented.

In the novel I believe she was two years younger than Reiji, she is older than she looks anywho.

I've grown fond of Cal but I still like Ein. Argh, I don't mind if Zwei end up either of them at this rate, but I'm slightly leaning towards Cal.
