Awesome episode, must I say.

Ah, so like our now-bad-guy Oishi said, "the dead are walking a lot in this case", aren't they?

Ms. Takano and Mr. Satoko's Uncle are examples of undeads.

This episode did a good job of me questioning just what has been going on. I'm no detective, so I'm having a pretty hard time figuring this all out. I guess I'll just have to wait until the next episode to see.

Anyway, this episode really threw me off track - at the end of the previous episode i was thinking along the lines that Satoko would just hate Keiichi and the girls would attempt to kill him because of what he did to Satoko's uncle (and hence, Satoko).

I think the doppelganger thing is a red herring - it would really suck if that was the real answer to these events, seems a bit cheap. Anyway, onto the spoiler speculation!

Spoiler for for the spoilerific:


On a sub note, a lot of eyework going on this episode, and i didn't really like Keiichi's eyes during the car scene with takano. It seemed hugely unnerving and random really.

I'm curious, what's Brovarin and Isomytal? I tried to do a Google search on these 'chemicals' but I've come up empty.

I was wondering what those two drugs (Isomytal and Brovarin) were too so I did a little digging.

According to a website chemindustry.com another name for Isomytal is Amobarbital which wiki had an article about. Amobarbital is a drug which is a barbiturate derivative and has sedative-hypnotic and analgesic properties. The wiki article included a list of side effects for an overdose which included: confusion (severe); decrease in or loss of reflexes; drowsiness (severe); fever; irritability (continuing); low body temperature; poor judgment; shortness of breath or slow or troubled breathing; slow heartbeat; slurred speech; staggering; trouble in sleeping; unusual movements of the eyes; weakness (severe).

The other drug Brovarin was a little harder to find. According to the same website Brovarin has other names of Bromisoval and Bromisovalum. I couldn't find either of these on wiki but on a couple of other websites it said that this drug was a sedative and mild hypnotic with potentially toxic effects.

Fun stuff. Wonder if Keiichi been slipped these drugs before.

This episode is easily one of, if not the, best episode i've seen so far in this series.

This episode was an eye opener o_O; Made me go, "WHAT THE HELL MAN? O_O EP 13 NAO!!!"

But I remember in the previous episode. Keiichi and his mom were talking about the perfect crime, right? Keiichi's mom said the perfect crime is a crime that never happened. So...
