Episode 2 is up at O-T. It's another good one, too. We get some more backstory to this year's plot (it's n ot that dissimilar from Makai no Hana: the broken sword was a lock that held a powerful Horror in check and the daggers must be recovered before it reawakens but they probably won't be and Ryuga's going to have to fight a giant naked woman). We got a few new cast members this week, too, including this year's new Makai Priest and two beloved returning characters from that movie none of us have seen (one of whom looks like she got lost on her way to the Shougeki Gouraigan set).

There's some good action this week too, including a really cool untransformed fight. All-in-all, a very good episode.

Thanks for the explanation of who were those people. And yes, my first thought was that the girl looks like a Surfer Jane expy (or worse a character from Onechanbaraa)

Fun fact, Hidezaku Ichinose, who portrayed the moth-winged Horror in this episode, previously portrayed Keisuke Fubuki, a member of the Elite Young Expert Squad (EYES) in Ultraman Cosmos

Isn't it the atcress who played Eiris (Last year's abino nude demon lady) from Makai no Hana?

I must say, after 2 episodes, I'm enjoying this one a lot more than that. I like that Amemiya's gone in the opposite direction in terms of this one being one big long story, rather than the abundance of standalone episodes last year.


Dammit, though, I wish the movie was more standalone.

Is she?

*checks TVN's cast page*

Yeah, apparently she is. And Amily is the actress who played the albino nude demon lady in Red Requiem. Cool to see them both get expanded roles.

dammit, Miki Nanri is just . . . HHHHHHHHHNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGHHHHH

i love her

Another good episode this week. Kind of sad, but it was really nice to see Rian getting more character development. I think we saw more development for Rian in three scenes than we did for Crow in all of Makai no Hana.

New priest really needs to start doing something, though. As it stands he is adding nothing to this series by just laying around talking to his puppet thing.

Episode 3's Horror of the week is none other than Sid from Gaim. Almost didn't recognize him without the facial hair and hat.


Anyways, I'm enjoying the show. Nothing else to say about it right now.

I knew he looked familiar! Thanks for pointing that out.

I enjoyed Episode 2 a lot. Ryuuga and Rian I missed them a great deal because seeing them again makes me really happy. Decade and the girl are intriguing right now and I like this whole storyline with Radan right now, I hope the pacing goes better than Makai No Hana's. The daggers are interesting, when I saw it with the sponsors names in the beginning of the first episode I was like this show will have something to do with them. I love the people helping Ryuuga and Rian they were a lot of fun, and I did like that they mentioned Aguri, Takeru, and Burai as well; I hope they all make cameos in some form or another in this show. The fight scenes are really awesome and I loved the finisher they performed together. I normally wait for TV Nihon's episodes because I have only watched their subs on GARO but with that ending I might not be able to wait.
