I really like the interaction between the characters here. It's IMO, a pivotal point in reinforcing the theme once again that contractors and dolls ARE humans. The car chase hammers that point home by having those three work together and care for each other.
July's great!

Amber was the one that observed Hei's sister apparently was still within him. Whether it was semantics or not, we do know that the machine used to take away Hei's power is very significant. The last time when the syndicate tried to eradicate every living contractors by blowing up the gate in Japan with that particle accelerator, it was Hei who emitted some sort of power to disrupt the accelerator. If such thing is tried again by the syndicate, the only one who could get in the way was Hei. However, Hei doesn't have his power anymore. So the question is.... Is there another attempt coming up in the near future to eradicate the contractors? A very good poster pointed out to me that this season makes much more sense if S1 is revisited, especially the Amber arc from the point where they were blowing buildings and such before leading up to the conclusion. As for this episode, I've enjoyed it the most out of this season thus far..

My appreciation for the 2nd season increased by large margin after I've picked up season 1 for a rewatch. The story is making much more sense.

not my favorite episode this season but it was ok,
still even though Hei has lost his powers he still shouldnt be taken lightly. also after seeing this episode i am so convinced that for Hei to get his powers back it has something to do with the meteor fragment necklace. also im getting a bit worried that this is going to be wrapped up really quickly/badly or there will be a part 2 release because i just cant see them doing this properly in a 12 episode season.

Interesting episode with few plot advancements. The father is still alive and Shion is up to something....
More conspiracies. Wait...did the Section 3's head called Shion as "Izanami", isn't Izanami = Yin? I like the Suou throwing glass shards scene. Very brutal...And finally, Hei gets to kill somebody after few episode of getting his ass kicked Hopefully there will be more answers in the next episode. There's too many questions and too many conspiracies

At 06:25 the old guy ask if the info about Izanagi's father been already in tokyo is true. So Izanagi can be Shion or Suou. And they might think that Suou is Shion, so we have again the possibility that Shion is Izanagi.
Regarding Pólux, he was immortal, but not a god. His twin was Castor, who was a mortal. They are siblings from Helen (from Troy) and Clitmnestra. Then we have Pólux (who was immortal) and Helen, who are sons of Zeus and Clitmnestra and Castor, who are sons of a mortal man. Due to his immortality, Pólux was always absent minded, and during a combat his lack of attention cost his twin life. Because Zeus loved too much the twyns, Hades agree that Pólux trade shifts with Castor in the underworld, and by this way Castor come back to life. But it was a incomplete existence due to the fact that their relationship was too close. Feeling sorrow for that, the gods turned them into stars and cast them in the sky. |

My fav char in this show. Too bad she's gone. Anyways, commenting on the new ep, I guess they're going back to the theme that contractors have human feelings too. |

Yup, I'm starting to like where the plot is going. I can't say I've been entirely pleased with the development of the last 6 episodes, although I did enjoy them immensely. I echo popular sentiments when I say that I wish that Hei will eventually receive his powers back and go all GAR again.
The instances with July were especially entertaining. I laughed when he tried to stifle his shock at the freezing water going down his back. Ah, good ol' DtB. It's what I wait for every week. : ) |

Just watched the episode again and I thought of 3 things
-Suou like how Hei called her name but she has yet to use his name in the series -Suou still thinks that Hei killed her father since there has been no explanation on their side otherwise -Seem like the whole meteor fragment ordeal is forgotten from the time being since it hasn't been an issue since episode....3?

I'll also go against the grain and say that was an above-average episode. The most interesting element of this mythology for me is the question of the degree of humanity (or lack thereof) among the contractors and dolls, and we saw quite a bit of development in that area. For all the so-called rules about the emotional limitations of both classes, the obvious evidence is that they're flexible at best. Plus, July is fast emerging as the funniest character on the show so any ep that features him heavily can't be bad.
"Ow."
