Great episode, not only did Shindou finally awaken but we learned that Saya has a phantom inside of her. With only 4eps remaining I doubt we'll have time to reach that far .

This is a super short series too!?!?! FUCK! Where is Bud with the intro to next season's anime thread, everything's ending, something will have to replace all this stuff.
Anyway, of course Shinou has 'Teh U83R H@X0R' demon inside him, but I didn't think they materialized the swords with their willpower like that...or that they could do projectile attacks.
I hope Saya will will get some fleshing out, but if the series is only 13 eps it's unlikely.
Aye, it was a great episode. But I had no idea this is also so short a series. That's very surprising considering how mighty slow this series has been to get really rolling. Well, I suppose that tells ultimately this wasn't a fighting anime in the end - if the fighting will begin only now with no more than a few more eps remaining.
Heh. The captain seemed just a little pissed off in the next ep preview. I'm guessing he isn't exactly thrilled at the idea of Shindou swithing to TOKKO. Yeah. That scene is certainly what I'm most eagerly looking forward to.
That's what I thought too. That's just teh_lame.Originally Posted by Yukimura
And after all, there does seem to be inconsistencies with Shindou's tattoo. In the last episode, he only had it on his forearm. In this episode, he had it on his forearm and a little patch on his shoulder. I don't know if this is intentional on the part of the animators.
Well, after that whole emphasis on "eat or be eaten" I was expecting some uber fight between that demon and Shindou. All it looked like to me was the demon awakes, Shindou sucks it in, gets a sword (with a cool tip =P), and then collapses. All of it happening within 15 seconds. Kind of a let down.... after all this build up to his "awakening."
From what I understood it was just a game of luck: Whether he had in waiting a Phantom that would take over his body (like had happened to the blond's brother) or one that would just grant him the kind of power the TOKKO members have. Maybe there are some variations, but I don't see why it would need to take hours (anime time) to decide who controls the body.
I figured there would be some level of internal struggle or something, but maybe they just didn't have time. We know Shindou's hard-headedness can beat any obstacle anyway so it's not that big of a loss, now we get to see what he does with his power.
On another note Shidou looked funny as hell in his TOKKO jacket, are those the half-demon versions of a decoder rings?
Wo, Bleach moment where he goes inside his mind and fights the bad guy and earns a sword (that shoots demons?). Now just like a gazillion more pieces to go.
I don't think the demon makes them evil in the beginning. There would be no reason for the demons to choose to protect them when they could just come to the real world on their own and not protect them from the other demons.

Sweet, Ibuki backstory, and more Shindou overpoweredness. I"m not sure why they throw in the nudity, as they could just as easily not, but whatever it's not a big deal, just don't watch it while your mom is hanging around.
It seems that Shindou isn't in full control of his demon and next episode Rokujou has to enter him. I think we saw part of that in the first episode.
As for the episode, we definitely saw Ranmaru's awesome new abilites.
Pretty cool episode, it really raised my suspicions about Ibuki's boss(the one that called her) and also about Muramasa. It didn't seem like he wanted to catch that car. Guess I really won't get my wish of seeing Saya get a demon . And I'm guessing if Rokujou's brother dies he'ss become a domon.

Anyone have the feeling that Muramasa is a bad guy? In the previous episode, he told Shindo to get in his car only to lose sight of the shooters. In this episode he personally drives Shindo to the demon boss's house. He's probably the one that dropped Shindo off at the Tokko office.
Well, was hinted at previous episode, and thought made blantantly obvious this episode.
The reason for the demon existance does interest me, Tokki 2nd div seem to just go with demons, however at the mansion old chap was going to go into some detail before Shindou lost temper.
I know their reason isn't going to be akin to saving the world, and they'll turn out to be the 'good guys', still nice to see some reasoning other than minions of evil.
As a Tokko fan I liked this ep a lot but as somebody that wanted some development I didn't really like it. It started out great since last week I thought Muramasa was a bad guy. I'm also thinking that the demons found out where Ibuki lived at from her boss. I'm thinking that both of them may even be demons. We know that if you eat enough demon pieces you start to look like one of them, maybe it's the same for if you humans. I really wanted to know what the old guy was gonna say .

Dunno if this has been asked before-- is Saya (Shindou's sis) a symbiote too? Since she has mentioned a "protector" before... and does that mean she'd also have to die in order for whoever to get a piece from inside her?
