That thought didn't even hit me...
You are here alone again
In your sweet insanity
All too calm, you hide yourself from reality
Do you call it solitude? Do you call it liberty?
When all the world turns away to leave you lonely
They possibly couldn't ruin the series like that. An interesting thought, though, but in a horrible way. I'm more inclined to think Suou just saw a glimpse of Hei's memories and will understand he's not an emotionless killer.
A nice episode otherwise. Really shows nobody can be prepared too well for the future with so many contractors around and no way of knowing their powers and the powers of the factions behind them. Quite chaotic. Suou had a funny plan in any case and very courageous. Gotta say I appreciated the boldness of the move, even if it wasn't altogether smart.
The mere possibility of it scares me.
I'm already apprehensive about Hei's lack of screen time in the new opening, that along with this and no evidence of him showing his powers in the preview...
Wait, isn't anyone else panicking over what happened to Yin? She said goodbye, to Hei! I was looking forward to seeing a lot of her this season...
Still, it will be interesting to find out what happened, and hopefully her disappearance is not permanent, and we get to see her with Hei in the end.
Yin with such an emotional expression was interesting.
EDIT: The possibility of a power transfer (or losing it completely/temporarily) is quite large since the BK-201 star disappeared.
Peace.
This....well that and I'm headed to Afghanistan in 3 weeks. Might as well just wait instead of trying to scrape the episodes together overseas.
I just don't care >_>
Emotionless only goes well with CC, i'm faithful to her unlike you damn whores!
Now that is a reason to panic, but the star didn't disappear when the powers got transfered the first time so maybe they just subsided for a while?
Quite possibly so. It's about time someone developed an Anti-Contractor weapon.
Suou looks like she'll be sniping, if anything, so I'm not too worried about it. Hei's too central to DtB to just retire as an unkempt drunk.
I really can't say much about Yin since we saw so little of her. Plus, she was in like 0.2 seconds in the OP. I'm glad that Hei cares for, if not loves Yin.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
That's what they said about spoiler
@Buff - The show is practically titled after Hei after all.
EDIT:I am going for a harem ending.
Peace.
What now?

I'm inclined to believe you are more correct than I was after watching the first episode again. Tanya specifically mentioned that she didn't even want to have his children yet. If the translation is right, then she still feels pretty strongly towards Nika, she will simply claim his genes when she thinks the time is right.
I'm a uneasy toward their relationship after seeing the preview for next week however. Things don't look that great, and the FSB very well may have wiped her memories as part of "training."
------------------------
Concerning Hei and this episode, the evidence seems to support it being a Contractor Suppressor. Hei's power is derived from his sister Bai, who is the real BK201. If the power transferred or was completely destroyed, BK201 would either fall or still be there. Instead, it simply faded (as the lovely as ever, and still interested Misaki noted). In my mind that would indicate some form of suppression rather than transfer.
Personally, I like that Hei isn't the primary focus this season. I liked many of the side characters and bit parts just as much as I liked Hei during the first season. They were just as fleshed out in the majority of cases, and had their own views of the events. Hei had his series, and his development. I rather enjoy seeing how an "outsider" views the whole situation. Their perspective is as equally interesting.
I also very much enjoy that they added a real combat equal to Hei in Hazuki. Hei didn't have any true equals in the first season, he was able to use his brains and experience to defeat a number of other martial arts based contractors. Hazuki's ability counters a number of Hei's strengths in terms of his equipment with her infinitely sharp wooden objects, and her physical capabilities mirror many of Hei's own. Not to mention that her price is fairly low. They ended in a draw here, but I am very much looking forward to further engagements between the two.
It seems more likely that Hei and Suou will become partners.
While I found this episode very good, I would be massively disappointed if freaking Hei loses his powers...that is what made this show so good is Hei and the way he fights with the other contractors in the world of contractors. That little girl is quite annoying...please god dont ruin this show!
Anyway isnt this show supposed to be following the manga? Maybe I should start reading the manga.
No, it isn't.
I took that as meaning "Since I don't want to reproduce yet, you are not needed."
It's basically saying Nika's only value is in reproduction (if and when she needs it).I couldn't see any sign of emotion between Tanya and Nika.
If only Hei was a woman, Hazuki would be rendered powerless if they were isolated, and neither could escape the other. It was good that Hei couldn't defeat her in 30 seconds flat.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Found Suou's rifle in the OP.
A soviet PTRD anti-tank rifle.
Pretty nasty rifle. 25 mm of armor penetration.
Loved episode 2. Period.
Hiei is still badass. LOL at him molesting a young girl without knowing it...
^nice find.
so yeah, this series so far is like 10x better than the first season. i'm really glad i decided to watch this, because these fist two episodes have been awesome.

It doesn't really seem like a weapon for a little girl. It even weighs more than 17 kg empty and the ammunition must be equally heavy. The recoil is likely crazy as well, despite the rather interesting mechanics that page you found described.
On second thought, it's perfect for a little anime girl.
Or a strike witch...
One thing strikes me through - in first ep at the end two contractors died right? April and that speedy-guy. So why only one star has fallen?
Number of works of fiction that made me shed at least one tear: 3Thou seeketh soul power, dost thou not?TOX: 33524385841A92B08787EEBEBA2DB51ED293C4F15A2E292F3F C92165E82388281433A77EA8FE
So then, anyone else think Mao has possessed Pecha somehow since the death of that supposedly random cat in episode one? They sure went with an annoying little critter this time though.
Haha, loving the second season. Hei is more badass than ever. Just wish there was more Yin to go around.
It seemed to me like the transfer was heading straight to the orange thing Suou was wearing around her neck(Meteor Core/Fragment?).
I'm guessing Pai is gonna remain dormant for awhile or that the fragment/core will be giving Hei a power boost of some kind. I'm leaning towards Pai's abilities becoming dormant because after the credits, if anyone noticed, Misaki saw BK-201's star fade.
Fade, not fall.Thoughts anyone?
