Rhode put her in that dress.

Spoiler:

As far as the episode goes, the quality was amazing. They edited out a lot of things though, which was to be expected.

I found a blog entry that covers most of the edits from this episode, I though you guys might like to check it out:

Next week; the conclusion of this arc and Rabi! ^_^

Well I think it was just because Road likes to dress up people, thought I read it in the manga. Nothing special about it.

The censors were a little dissapointment in this episode, for us mangareaders. But otherwise it was a very good episode, maybe the best one so far in the series.

I knew Road placed Lenalee into that dress - i was just wondering if there was a reason behind it.

Deathkillz · 2006-12-13, 17:22

^ cause she has a fetish for human sized dolls? seriously maybe its just her habit of teasing with allen to make him fired up ~ "i messed with your GF hahaha!" kinda thing

My question was already answered by gsfreek. :3

The episode didn't have as much fighting as I thought would be the case, not that it was bad but I guess I was expecting things to wrap up the episode. Anyway.. the episode was Great! and the Animation was as good as its ever been. Getting hit in the eye with that candel must of hurt >.> Though lucy for him Miranda was there.

Next week looks Interesting, but I'm sure Allen & Lenalee wont get rid of Road for good, too early for that.

Loves this series to death XD
Been follow it up to ep 9 since i watch Shinsen-subs version and have just read the manga up to ch101.
What's wrong with all the differences in character's name. I thought it has been officially cleared up by the author. Check: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characters_in_D.Gray-man

For someone who read the manga, dunnot check if u haven't read the manga. Extreme spoiler.....

Episode 11 was quite amazing. Granted, the information about Noah wasn't all that informative, but I guess they would leave the juicier bits for later. Road's performance was great-If only they hadn't changed the left-eye stabbing so much. I thought getting her directly involved in that would have raised the chill factor a little more, but not everything has to be similar to the manga after all.

The activating of Miranda's Innocence was better than I expected in action and it seems to show a more logical view of things: That she is already starting to feel the strain of doing so even after several minutes of activation.

The action next episode seems interesting. I'll see whether the anime can arrange the little scene between Allen and Lenalee from the manga.

Friera · 2006-12-15, 09:02

Three volumes of the manga has been released (And I have ordered them)
The third volume, where is it in the anime? Is there a lot of differences between the manga and the anime?

It's around episodes 7 or 8 to 11 (speculated), I believe. No, there aren't a lot of important differences between the manga and the anime except for the censoring of some bloodier scenes and maybe downplaying any hint of relationships shown in the manga.

I've got up to volume 7 (couldn't get 5...sold out), and it seems that D.Grayman does indeed have the aura of shounen fare around its storyline and characters. The things Allen get to experience and see, though, makes you want to continue reading.

I definitely agree. This moment from the manga will be very good moment to end the anime. But we'll see what it's gonna be like. I hope whichever studio is going to pick this anime up won't screw it

Especially I think about the dark climax of the manga. Let's hope it's gonna be fine and wait.

Allen die...how?

Guido · 2006-12-16, 10:39

Spoiler:

I haven't read the manga as of yet, but I too perceived that some scenes were downplayed to a slower rate that ate momentum for the climax duel, however, it is made evident that this is done to build-up for Miranda's character for the next episode.

Spoiler:

ghostface · 2006-12-18, 11:46

I like the way Road is portrayed in Ep. 11.
One part annoying brat that wears your coat for fun, one part bloodthirsty sadist.

The animators really succeeded in showing how utterly devoid of feelings she is.
The only thing that can rouse her from this numbness is some form of excitement and that only works for a while. She even admitted that whatever she's talking about regarding God's will is total nonsense. Everyone in the world is scum that may be fun for her to destroy.

She's rotten to the bone ;)

Zishi · 2006-12-19, 09:14

I just saw that there is going to be 52 episodes of D.Gray-Man which makes me quite happy so its not going to be outdraged by fillers like so many other never-ending shounen stories. I dont know if people knew this ^^

Where'd you find out about this show being 52 episodes? Nothing official has been said about it.. so i thought it would just be 26.

Check episodes, well it might just be for the moment that I dont know, but usually they put real information there.

Deathkillz · 2006-12-19, 09:59

52 huh? tbh i rather it be 26...making it too long just ruins it if they decide to add lots of filler materials...

Rinslet · 2006-12-19, 10:45

Sometimes 26 episodes aren't enough, 52 is the ideal number for me (at least for D.Gray)

Owaranai Destiny · 2006-12-19, 11:08

Actually, for those who are following the manga, 52 is indeed quite the appropriate number. It's been already up to episode 11, yet the Rewinding Town arc has yet to finish. Incidentally, the arc ends *gasp* at the end of manga volume 3, while I'm pretty sure so far the volume's been released up to 9 or 10.

Guido Snobby Gentleman Join Date: May 2004 Location: Monterrey, México Age: 43	Miranda Lotho's Feelings Spoiler: Allen's near close shave he had with death, amounted with Miranda's past made me to sob, since I'm a sentimental guy to admit it. Road is what I expected from her- sadist and who is selfish to use her powers to quench her bloodlust and ill games; a contempt for all of creation in general. I haven't read the manga as of yet, but I too perceived that some scenes were downplayed to a slower rate that ate momentum for the climax duel, however, it is made evident that this is done to build-up for Miranda's character for the next episode. Spoiler: 1. The argumentative confrontation exchange between Allen and Road took more time, than Miranda explaining her past through monologue and flashbacks. 2. Miranda's Innocence manifestation of power took its time for to show the audience how it works to heal on Allen and Lenalee.
