Re: Episode 6
Nyanko-sensei makes Natsume come across as a yankee or at least the spunky protagonist of a shonen manga. He calls out Jun from her class and drags her to a stairway only to tell her that she smells...

Re: Episode 4
It was fairly obvious who was going to die this episode, so the death didn't come as much of a shock. Still, too bad as I liked her and the deaths continue to be squeamishly gruesome.

Episode 4
What? Shinobu talks! Just as surprising is how talkative she turns out to be and she spends half the episode talking to Araragi in the bath (and naked). Tsukihi walking in on them and then coming...

Re: Episode 15
I knew more or less what was going to happen because of the game, but the King's Game still managed to bring tears to my eyes from me laughing so hard. Yu is suave.

I really liked the ayakashi featured in this episode. His unusual design (for this series, anyway) and honest concern for the humans he'd watched over make him one of the more memorable youkai we've...

Re: Episode 2: A Lonely Dog
I think Ririchiyo is part hannya (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hannya) based on the mask she wears around her waist. They're women who have turned into demons due to intense jealousy. Ririchiyo's...

Re: Episode 3
Yeah, the ship versus ship electronic warfare was rather anticlimatic and now seems kind pointless beyond showing that the ship is more than it seems (which we already know from last episode) and...

Re: Episode 2: Atsumi and the Everyday
Indeed. I'm hoping her appearance here means that she'll start getting more roles again. Whatever personal issues she's had, she's still a very good voice actress.

Re: Episode 2: Atsumi and the Everyday
That more or less sums up my feelings of the episode as well. If the central joke has already run its course by the second episode, and a three minute one at that, there's not really much reason to...
