If i'm correct, then we can count this as the last episode... but i don't understand one thing: Are they planning to explain everything in one episode or will they announce another season? I don't see how 24 minutes are enough to make Hei confront the CIA and Hazuki.. only to have afterwards a nice conversation with Yin. It's too much if you ask me.

Also, the syndicate is still around and i don't understand Misaki's role in this entire chess game. I demand a S3 with a Hei+powers back+his mask and his usual ownage.... we didn't see much of that in this season.

I don't see how Hei can have a "nice conversation" with Yin seeing his intent on killing her. Mao said so himself that the Yin from the past and the current Yin are two different beings. Besides, we'll be getting 4-OVA episodes about Hei and Yin, so we don't really want this to turn into a romance series.

No series can cover everything up; some things are just better left in mystery.

^ Not literally a nice conversation but more like confronting her. Maybe i should've wrote that instead, either way he'll be the one to stop her but that will most likely take a lot of the episode.

The Hazuki and Hei fight will probably get cut short with Hei owning her. Suou will finally confront Shion once and for all and Hei will do his own thing with Yin. I'm expecting something like this at least....

Either way, my heart can't settle down till this episode airs.

Spoiler:

After a brief fight followed by a hot kiss, Hazuki overpowers Hei and almost kills him but stops at the last minute. Her boss explains that it was the CIA who killed Youko because they betrayed them. It seems I was right about Team Hei and Section 3 sort of teaming up.

Now some hot pictures...




July meets up with the magician who we thought was dead. He confirms he loves Suou, then grabs Suou and takes her to a dead Shion.

Suou blames Yin about doing something to Shion and July drops dead. *LOLWUT*

Henshin scene, Suou vs Yin. The meteor fragment suddenly starts glowing and breaks.

Hei enters, Suou exists. Yes...Suou died.

Hei comes to the rescue and stops a berserk Suou. Now we've got 2 dead bodies, July and Suou.

AND A BIG WHAT THE F***

I don't even know what fucking happened here.

Suou goes back to another dimension seemingly living a happy life with her family and I heard July's name mentioned.

Yin and Hei live happily ever after, probably.

Fuck my limited Japanese skills.

The End.

Naturally, actual opinions/analysis held back until I see it for myself, but for now.....

@#%%^&#$%^#%@#

Not exactly what I expected.....

So not only

Spoiler:

no season 3

, which is fine if the conclusion is well-done, but also

Spoiler:

Suou "dies"?! I thought she'd at least confirm what her feelings for Hei were......

Spoiler:

Her time gets reset or something. Then we suddenly see her living happily with her family and going to school.

I'm not sane right now. I'll wait for an actual summary with someone who can understand Japanese better.

But it's a WTF ending and I don't know what I'm feeling right now.

I know it hinted a July x Suou ending though.

Spoiler for spoilers:

What do you mean "Hei enters, Suou exists, Suou dies?" You mean she dies before Hei enters the room with her and Yin?

I think either that scene with Suou living happily with her family is just a dream or made a reality by the meteor fragment.

[Kanon]

BOOOOOOOOOONES !!

Ok, I have no idea what happened.

Spoiler for End:

I can't believe Magician-kun was still alive, looks like MI6 and the CIA were working together, with Genma and July as their spies (though July chose to stay with Suou in the end). Speaking of Suou, I really have no idea what happened to her or what Hei has done. At first I thought he rewrote the world but aside from Suou's whatever-it-was-we-saw, nothing else has changed. And it looks the being that was supposed to be born really appeared. This calls for a third season.

Btw, did I miss it or were we not even shown Hazuki and Genma's fate?

Posting the end's eyecatch because I really like it

Spoiler for Pic:

I love Misaki's new look.

Spoiler:

Suou was about to shoot at Yin. Hei suddenly enters the scene and hugs her, she blurts out something and seemingly dies along side July.

[Weils]

I see. Btw, where do u guys watch MBS channel? I couldn't watch it on Keyhole, much less a clear version.

[Aqua Knight]

I feel very guilty after reading the spoilers, though not watching the episode.
But the kiss scene really pumped me up. I like those kind of kisses.

[LightningZERO]

Spoiler for 12:

From the chinese forum, it seems that Shion uses the ME network to make a copy of the world. Shion is dead, July is dead. Others survive it seems. America conquers Japan and war starts. Suou and her family lives happily in another world.

Season 3 please?

[Ice Block]

OMG I missed the entire first half. Didn't know the ep was starting early tonight.

What I got out of the second half:

Spoiler for Episode 12:

Oreille had some kind of plan which involved making copies (not sure about this). They were in room with a big pink glowing thing.

There were two Yins. The black one was a copy apparently.

Oh hello, Mr. Magician. He has a short talk with July inside the gate. Suou finds them, and after the talk July takes her to Shion and dark Yin.

Shion looks withered, I wonder what happened to him in the first half (and how he got to the flower garden). The twins talk for a while, then Shion dies. Suou wants to shoot dark Yin, but then dark Yin somehow breaks Suou's meteor fragment. I don't get the next part (it seems the meteor fragment holds Suou's memories? or was that just a "life-passes-before-my-eyes" thing?).

Was that Amber there near the climax (when Misaki was running into the neutral space and saw a vision-like scene of Hei + Suou and July on the ground + a person confronting Hei)? She seems to be doing the same pose back in last season's final ep (giving/pushing the meteor fragment onto Hei).

Epilogue: Either Shion's copying power was used extensively, or that was some kind of alternate reality for the diseased held by dark Yin (Well, when the CIA approached her they had their "observer spirits" removed and sucked into Yin. I guess normal people have observer spirits too, only dolls can control them better.). Hell's gate is now safe to enter it seems, and I think the sky is back to normal? Well, I swear I saw a moon there somewhere, or maybe it was my crappy video quality.

Also, Genma died. He was killed by Hazuki. As for Hazuki, I failed to catch her in the epilogue.

[Lummie]

Is it safe to say that another one has entered Hei's harem after hearing the truth? I doubt Hazuki would've kissed him, even if it was for her remuneration.

[LightningZERO]

Spoiler for 12:

There's always some talks about Hei and Yin fuse together in this episode....real or not? I have no idea

Spoiler for 12:

I'd hate for Hei to disappear like that. I think he's just the child of Shion and Yin, as he was supposed to be. Or maybe Hei and Yin. But please, not a fusion

[Faerie]

.... I am so confused :O What has been going on with Yin then?! (never mind the rest. That sounds even more odd)

[fertygo]

Oh dude... I don't know what to say at this moment.

Spoiler for 12:

But WTF with this "Madlax" looks alike !!!???
with the clone world out from nowhere and etc.

will wait for the subs to decide will i love or hate this ending, but seems likely i will cries knowing my fave of series have a BS ending like this T_T
