Koyasu Takehito! I'm loving this series so far. Can't wait for the next.
I don't really like the execution for this series. Too much over-dramatic ~posing~ and the characters stalk each other. Why did Kanata have to follow Yuki all the way to the bridge before talking to him. weiiird. Yuki is also so typically an uke who's ~yasashii~.
If you don't have an anime membership at Crunchyroll, you can still download Crunchy rips on anime torrent sites and watch them on anime stream sites like goodanime.net.
Anyway, the plot is still pretty interesting and the guys are still pretty pretty so imma continue.
Lind_L_Tailor said: Not a bad episode, but I certainly liked the last one more.
Also, Yuki already seems to be a massive Gary Stu.
He does seem like a Gary Stu. Everyone loves him, he's perfect. And there is alot of posing that isn't necessary and a bit overdone. It makes it really hard to even call this a shonen-ai/BL, because Yuki as a girl is everywhere, I'm confused about what type of anime this even is.
I can't say whether this episode is awesome or not. Maybe yeah, a little, 3/5 I guess?
Well, for Yuki I dunno what to say, but I like Toko and Tsukumo also Luka.
Yeah, I guess next episode will be better. Can't wait for it^^
I love how the music at the end was so hype and awesome but the content was like "Will you come with me to become a hero and save the world?" FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU...

Lol, exactly xD
Well, finally something's happening. Yuki is so very Gary Stu-ish...but the seiyuu cast may just make up for anything *__* Also, is Luka/Zess even human? Those claws (I refuse to call them fingernails) and sharp teeth make me wonder.

Not bad episode. I didn’t expect anything from this show, but it has good execution. Bishie limit for the week has been fulfilled. XD Yeah, I think I will be watching it because of that.
I really like the fact that I don't what the hell is going on. Ignorance keeps me going, or should I say curiosity?
Anyway, I really like the seiyuu cast. It was a thrill to get Koyasu in this ep. Hoshi's voice for some reason isn't bothering me as much as Sakurai's (the whole Cloud'ish vibe pisses me off).
So, Yuki has super powers and was a girl in the past life. What next?
If i actually had some idea where this is going i might be interested in what is about to happen next. I would be excited for some action except there was a lot of CG; the battle scene was non existent. They have weapons but it looks like they are getting chopped up with a sword every single time... Despite it never being swung. O.o
Plus there was a lot of broken glass in this episode... Orphanage...School...Street mirror.. All the demons...?? Somebody grab a mop. I am done 'flaming.'
This is starting to feel like vampire knight minus the awesomeness. Zess looks like a vampire in the opening, Zero Tsukumo has a gun, and takashiro gives off the same feel as the director. Not to mention Yuki and Yuki...
I really liked this episode. I don't read the manga so i don't know what's going to happen..It seems pretty interesting.This episode was much better than the first because there were new characters and the story started developping itself.looking forward to more......:)

I really don't know where all of this VK is coming from.
Oh my god, he uses a gun O_o" But at least, that makes him Dante from DMC, Marian Cross from D.gray-Man... holy shit, how many characters with guns are out there?*drop*
Not to mention Tsukumo isn't like Zero at all.
Same goes for Kaien Cross and Takashiro - they are nothing a like. I love both these characters, but except the fact both are elders to the main and have long blond hair, there are no similarities...
And how come the same name - Yuki - does even count as a similarity?*shakes head* That name is used so often in Anime...
Really, UraBoku can be fairly combared to X and stuff, but VK... thats something completly else. Except for the fact both of it is shojo
liked the episode :3 the animation is pretty and the seiyus are great ~
I am one of Hoshi's fans and i like his voice .. but for some reason i don't think his voice is fit for Yuki >_<
It was pretty awsome episode so much better than the previous one. There was a lot of development with the introduction of the Giou family. I'm sure we'll get to know them more in the next episodes.
The animation is just gorgeous, I can't say any bad thing about it, amazing...I hope it will continue to be like this or even better~
It is still over dramatized as for me, but I still enjoyed this ep. Especially the rain part.
I can't wait for Shusei to show up! My face character voiced by my fave seiyuu <333 What more could I ask for?
Don't hate me but it's just too dramatic for me. I also don't like the seiyuus that were appointed to the characters. Like Yuuki and Zess. =T It's just my opinion but their voices just doesn't suit them.
I'll probably keep watching it just because the manga scans are so slow but meh. I'll probably hate myself for doing so.
People, check the genres before watching something. It says "drama" so of course there'd be drama. Just like it says "shoujo".
Yuki annoys me too though, but mostly his voice. Ah well, it's the same guy who voiced Keiichi and his voice always annoyed me too, so...
On the other hand I really love the other seiyuus, like FukuJun, Ishisa-sama, Sakurai-san, (OMFG I DIDN'T KNOW HIS VOICE WAS THIS SMEXY SFHKSFLJFHL) and I see Miyano-kun, Kamiyan and DaiDai are in this too! 8D Can't wait for them to appear. ^^
Takashiro guy reminds me of both Soubi from Loveless and Souichi from Koisuru Boukun. A lot.
Ehmm it's okay so far but I feel like everything's too straightforward and fast. Like they could have kept things mysterious and kept the details for later but it's just so obvious now what's going on. Yuki is Lukas sister who was reborn or whatever and they're part of this 'special' clan and whatnot. It doesn't really draw me in wanting more.
And something about the opening and the show so far kinda bugs me. Don't you think that it's very similar, almost TOO similar to Vampire Knight? The main character's names are the same (Yuki-Yuuki) and they can both shatter things when they're angry or anxious.
Remember Episode 8 of Vampire Knight when Yuki makes the windows shatter after hearing the truth about her parents?
And not to mention the way the characters look. In the opening when all these bishies are doing superpower stuff, there was this dude that looked EXACTLY LIKE Akatsuki from VK. Like seriously I thought they were the same person. And anyways, not to compare or bash Uraboku but I think it's just really close to VK. Too close. >.<
Okay, I did the wrong rating. I *LOVED* this episode. I will only say that this is the part of the series where I realized it was gonna have some bromance content for fujoshis.This is the episode where a relationship begins to develop between the main character and another one. And they expertly staged the most tender and beautiful moment between them. Just go watch it! The plot also starts to pick up. But in general, the pace at which the animators staged the advancements of the plot and give information about the characters go "slow" (and by that I mean at a pace that is not too fast but does not leave you feeling bored). It is just right. Great episode; better in fact than the first one. Watch this one before you decide to cut it off completely. You will be glad you did!
