    One interesting thing: The special TOKKO people do have a pretty lousy job: They need to collect all the 108 pieces to get the whole box. However, all those special TOKKO people have also those shards inside them. So, when they have all the other pieces, will they also be themselves butchered to get the last ones? Or can the pieces be extracted without killing them? The tattoos and their skills demonstrate the shards have, to some degree, integrated with their bodies, so it's an open question whether they spend their days of retirement in a coffin.

    Well, at least Shindou will have a jolly bunch of colleagues when he joins TOKKO.

    If they have to die to get their shards out then they are all prob willing to die to close the gates of hell. Though I doubt they'll find all the shards in their life time. I liked this ep because last week I asked how many demons there were and Kureha answered my question , I still don't like her hair it just doesn't look natural. One part about herback story that I didn't get was that she said she was the same age as him but in the flashback her and her brother looked older then him and his sister. Is she basing her age before she was in a coma for 2yrs or was that attack on her parents at a later time since they already knew about their tatoos?

    They mention alchemists trying to create life... Homunculi as the main enemies again?
    Nah just standard demons.

    Maybe she just wanted to stress there isn't such a huge age difference. But what you said is true, though. It looked like there is something like 2 years. A good catch.

    And they probably knew about the tattoos because the other victims hadn't been in coma for 2 years, and thus they had had those 2 years to study the issue.

    So, he'll join TOKKO nowand fight. 108 demons and they have only identified 12 (excluding themselves), shows that there is a long way to go.

    well i've been busy recently so I hadn't been watching much anime but noticed that this show was getting quite a bit of attention here. After watching the first episode I saw that it had alot of potential, but after episode 4 I was sort of 'meh, whatever' on this show.

    But episode 5 was awesome. I loved the mad scientist (although I really want to know who those two were who sliced him up. They looked like other demons who could stay in human form) and Kunikida is the absolute bomb. Shindou is a pretty good main character, but sometimes he just says things suddenly, that the viewer knows isn't the case, and I would sometimes like to see more of his line of thinking that leads him to these thoughts...

    Kureha's past in 6 was also pretty good, and she's a pretty good looking anime babe, although she needs to do something about that hair...

    Why did she and Shindou dye their hair shock yellow? Any point? Is it just to show how 'similair' they are? Makes me wonder if he'll be put in a situation like hers, where Saya turns into a full-blown Phantom.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    At the rate Shindou tatoo is growing I wonder if he'll be the one that turns into a full demon like Kureha's brother. The end of the opening seems to hint that there will be a fight between him and Rokujou with her looking sad that she has to kill him. And what I met earlier was how did Rokujou and her brother know where their tat's were if they had just woke up from coma's.

    Well, Oyasumi couldn't much help it since there was a pause in airing. Taking that into account I don't know if it was any more delayed than any other series (except DB releases) these days.

    But man this series moves slowly and goes back and forth without much direction. If it continues like this, maybe Shindou will finally join Tokko in the last episode...

    Well, except for that detail, this episode was quite nice. It once again made the Shindou fight a demon, this time equipped with a bloody second-rate oar, and on the other hand it revealed some higher-ups are pretty wicked people, thinking perhaps to simply have Shindou killed to save some later trouble.

    There was a break until the 17th remember, then Oyasumi was just slow, but people have lives, and they were never particualrly fast if I recall.

    EDIT: OMG STOP POSTING SO MUCH WHILE I TYPE!

    EDIT2: Nice, Shindou has plenty of spunk, and next ep it looks like they might awaken him, go TOKKO!

    Is it just me, or has the tattoo on Shindou's arm shrunk significantly?

    Man, I love this shit, can't wait for the awakening, it seems it will be good.
    Next episode is going to be awesome.

    I don't think the tattoo on his arm as shrunk, I don't know, would have to look at the other episodes, it's been a while since I watched any TOKKO.

    I seriously can't wait to see them awaken Shindou, I hope the process looks cool. Did anybody find it weird that 13 seemed weaker then 12? They havent been able to kill 12 yet 13 went down pretty easy. Only thing that seemed stronger was his minions.

    It could also be that the 12th doesn't stick around until it's killed like this last one. When the 12th attacked Shindou, it also escaped pretty fast when the situation turned disadvantageous. But the 13th seemed content to fight to the bitter end.

    Remember that the number they have isn't based on how powerful they are, but when they come out.
