This was quite possibly the worst episode of the entire series, no exaggeration, I got nothing. Rinko is gorgeous? The music is good? That still doesn't say anything about this episode specifically just my God...

I liked that Falco's Saber Strike level 6 caused Birdemic :lol

I couldn't even appreciate this series flashy action because it was just cased in a load of nothing. I can't even really call it shit or get angry about it because there was literally nothing of value or worth in this episode at all, you could cut this episode entirely and not even have a one percent impact on your experience. At least the last episode had Haruto's first meeting with Wiseman, this had...wet Rinko butt?

But if you cut this episode, we wouldn't have been graced with this.

And god forbid we deprive viewers of this scene :p

Oh God that is true, retract my previous statement :p

I won't lie: that part made me jump a bit. At least we got a really creepy Phantom out of this mess.

This pair of episodes is completely skippable. I've been so tolerant of Shunpei throughout the series,but these episodes really made me question why he's even around.Rinko at least has her being a cop to fall back on,but what does Shunpei even do?

I also hate how inept the cops in this show are."Hey one of our fellow officers is chasing after our suspect she MUST be an accomplice.NOPE NO OTHER POSSIBLE EXPLANATION FOR THAT".Also,Rinko failing to catch ONE guy is reason enough to get her fired?

The one other time we had someone on the absolute edge of becoming a Phantom was Mayu and I was genuinely shocked to see that happen.Seeing it here with this perpetual well of unsympathetic self-pity,I wasn't sure what I was supposed to feel.And the overreaction shots from Shunpei and Rinko didn't help.Probably the worst episodes of the series for me.

I actually like this ep quite a bit. Rinko is as cute as ever and it's nice that she finally took control at the end and solve the crime. It's also hilarious that after all that the Gate still despaired.


Yeah the lack of plot development is really dumb. Enough with the Wiseman/White Wizard ambiguity. I want to know the truth already. And whatever happened to Maya (sp?) sister of Medusa? I want to see her as a Rider like last month. Grrrrr.

I enjoyed the bit where Nitou tried to use bird seed to catch the Phantom, but other than that this episode was pretty much garbage.

This...
