....Maybe it's cause I've read what's translated of the manga but this is getting crap. I've been feeling doubts since the recap episode, that was pointless for a 13 episode series. It seems the only thing it's got going for it is the ridiculous amount of boobs, which is really just stupid now. Don't get me wrong I'll still end up finishing this show, but I can't help but feel like it isn't what it should be.

yes that was what I was worried about too, not to mention that this part of the story was supposed to be further ahead

this means they will definitely create a shitty original ending, I no longer like this show, but will watch it just because I like Saeko, also the blog is full of shit now, and the preview is crap, this episode was supposed to be 4 eps away, right now there was supposed to be the arc when they are all in Takagi's house, and after 3 episodes they were supposed to leave and separate for a day with Komuro and Saeko, I'm not spoiling anything, I will not say how it was happening and what did happen and why, but the order of events is totally wrong, at this rate they won't even get to the mall at all in this season, they should hang the director by the balls and rip them off, this show is turning into way too much echii, even for my tastes.


I'm glad they didn't open a forum for this series (the official) it would be so full of flames right now.

Just re-watched this episode using gg's version. And am I the only one that thinks the original MX International subbing was superior this week? I noticed a number of translations that were not exactly correct from the gg version.

And the series has taken a turn for the worse.
They turned the events upside town, not even the circumstance about house <=> temple/Takashi and Saeko together but they also turned events upside that in the "Takashi/Saeko" time... They even failed to draw the sharp edge of the katana correctly when Saeko drew it the first time...
And is it just me or did Saeko not have the katana with her when they entered Saya's house? If so, then the series is really only bullshit with tits, nothing more. Why did she leave the katana behind? Or why did the idiots of producers decide so? Only for a certain scene still to be able to be shown? FAIL!

I knew nothing of the outside world. I was just a frog in a well.

for once newy, i feel the same, they completely demolished the story and made shit, unless they plan on remaking this show in the correct way, this won't sell very well, i am VERY disappointed about how they are doing this, and yes she did not have the katana with her.

I think they initially wanted to do this differently but teh stupid director changed plans and it went shit, I don't recall in the manga that Takashi grabbed her breast and yelled at her, if i recall correctly they talked things out in the shrine, and she simply went all out, and that leaves stuff happened after some specific event, it looks like they did want to follow the manga, but due to directors change of plans they had to improvise and change some scenes, I'll only keep watching for Saeko's sake cuz I really like her, but if they keep fucking this up not even DVDs will sell well enough.

I dont know but I think the fact that they made it a 12 episode was budget? Iono since most series that have plenty of episodes you can see all the "sponsors" right after the OP. . .we have 9 episodes and I havent seen any sponsors yet. . .
if we can get Mcdonnalds or someone to sponsor we might get another 12 episodes ;D
:P

Oh they did it alright...
(click to show/hide)
I pretty much gave up in trying to make sense of this anime.

Thats not the responsibility she's referring too,Saeko enjoys a kill,when she is incharge,the thought she knows she can kill her enemy easily is like cocaine to her,komuro told her to be her true self in order for him to survive also so that she can stop worrying about "What if i lose control of it,"read the manga.She's telling him take responsibility for the K.I she is gonna be releasing from then on.
I Repeat...Read The Manga if you wanna know what responsibility she talking about.
And dont give komuro so much credits,if he really was a man,he would of banged Rei from the beginning...seeing he hasnt makes me know he didnt do Saeko.

She is a woman but this episode is more fucked up than a crackhead doing coke.They got 70% of it wrong from the buggie,to the sword,to the order the events happened,and according to this episode,it seems komuro did do saeko in the shrine.I hope they do this episode the right way...but i must say im happy komuro did show a sign of being a man grabbing her breasts like that but i hate the fact he used her just to stay alive -fucking coward-.Imma wait to see what they do to the rest of the series.

Yay I'm back! No one cares I know. :'(

First off, for those who were wondering my modem died last week and I couldnt go on the internet for over 4 days! My ISP send me a replacement today so after plugging it in the 1st thing I did was, of course, download HotD. Even tho I dont like that they're not following the manga anymore I still couldnt wait to watch it and I wasnt disappointed.

I think it was the best episode so far, big shock I know, Saeko's just so amazing. All that wetness and zombie ass kickin, I jizzed in my pants.

I dont have time right now but later tonight, after rewatching it, I'll be sure to read all your insightful posts.

Seeing the comments here and being one of the people who follow the manga I'm not looking forward anymore to see episode 9 ... already been disappointed too much with the latest Nurahiyon no Mago, don't think I can take another "let's buttfuck the story and make it incoherent" today bleh

I'm disappointed in this show. It could have been great. I don't think I'll be bothering using my disk space to house any more episodes of this shit.

Meh, I came for the badassedness, and I'm staying for the badassedness.
This is the first time that fanservice has actually made me visibly angry, though.

This kind of dissapointment happens when you read the manga before the anime. . .same thing with books/movies

everyone that read the harry potter book they were like "dude the movie sucks" . . .I personally haven't read any of the books since I dont find it interesting, Ive seen the movies tho and I think they're good in their own way. . .same with LOTR.

now someone mentioned that someone in this episode (I wont spoil) used the "take responsibility" phrase and what it could mean about being knocked up (I dont think she'd know right away anyways) . . .but I think Funiguys translation of it was better cause they translated it to as:

"You'll stick by your words right?"

which if you take into consideration the words certain someone had just said, it pretty much makes more sense. . .
and thats another reason why its good to watch both sunday's night version and monday's morning version ;D
plus that boob grab was SOOO censored.

oh! and about the humvee, IIRC the "police" or whatever they were said "we'll get the car later"

Good lord guys, we're talking about zombies! You'd think that Salman Rushdie was writing the script and you were mullahs, the way you are over-reacting.

And yes Havok, you spoiled the next 4 episodes twit.

I think I should be spelling Saeko's name Psycho from now on. And that I think is the reason for the

eh, I liked the episode. I think it brings new intra-character dynamics to the show.
