Oh wow, the ugly color filters only appeared for a few short times and otherwise left the fight scene alone, which is great because the fight scene itself was actually good and lasted longer than a few seconds for once. This sort of battle between wielders of indestructible everyday objects was what I hoped from the show's action scenes the first place, not magical noose summoning books or mind control horse whips. I like it!

When I saw Emily in the preview last week, I thought we'd get to know more about Yamane, mostly because someone at that age with killing goods could maybe serve as a trigger for her own issues. Seems I'll have to wait until next week.
Interesting, that Emiliy's killing goods are "made". Someone trying to use curses to strengthen weapons? How do you fabricate curses? (I always thought that, in Japanese folklore, cursed objects have acquired the intense feelings of the user via prolonged use.) |

Heh, it took me long enough to notice, but considering this latest episode...
"Byouin" means hospital, doesn't it? Sort of fitting killing goods for Byouinzaka, no? Makes me wonder if I've missed other things about the naming in the show. Heh. |

I did know, for example, that "Seigi" means justice (--> Rulebook), so I wasn't entirely unprepared. Quote:
Aside: I thought censoring Emiliy's breasts was ridiculous. If anything, it made the scene more racy, rather than less. |

I also think I've also seen blood censored to be made black on TV versions too. Maybe Emily's censorship was because of nipples? Who knows.

Really enjoying this bizarre, yet curiously interesting series. The characters in particular are ineresting for me, though I kinda like the art style too.
The back story of Emily was a touching to me. I wonder if she will become another bodyguard sorta person for the Queen or if she will die after uttering forgiveness to Kiri? Fave series of the season for me. :-)

You know, I’m gonna be pissed if this anime ends with a LOLWUT anime-original ending. If I have to choose, I’d go with cliffhanger instead of an abrupt ending. Still, an abrupt ending might also fit the weirdness of this series. I don’t know.
Emily: Fantastic! Now if you'll excuse me. I have to kill a certain white-haired loli coz I want to become his only daughter .
