    When I first heard the opening I thought it was some kind of joke by the sub group. Crazy to think that some Japanese company actually bought the rights to Duran Duran. I wonder how much they paid?

    As for the series itself, I'm not too sure about it. When the character was like "My secrest wish was to blow things up with my camera????" I was like, "Yeah, that's exactly what I was wondering." Not the strongest premise, and now he can't even work as a photographer (unless he uses his left eye maybe?). Anyway, I'll reserve my jusdgement until I've seen a few more eps.

    ep 6 by shinsen is out. Go get it at tokyotosho or baka-updates.com

    The diamond lady became an organ donor at the end, in a different way. Too bad we didn't get to see what the one guys powere really is, since they did not show what he did, it will be interesting to find out.

    Her spare parts are going to be used to make diamonds, therefore the reference to organ donation where they use your organs or whatever part of your body. Understand now? I was just comparing it to organ donation.

    I liked the car chase scenes in ep 6. But then, I always like a good car chase. I guess it's pretty obvious that Suitengu has some kind of powers too since he recovered so quickly from his gunshot wounds (what are they called in this series, ecstatics? something odd...) I suppose we'll find out what soon enough. And spray-painting the diamond so that the light wouldn't pass though it was a nice touch.

    Euphoria. I'm not really sure why they use it in that terminology, I guess becuase Kagura activates their powers by kissing them, the so called "Blessing of the Goddess."

    The spray paint was good, and I liked the shot throug the mirror to hit the rubber man just as much, simplier and no thought, but still very cool.

    For those who watch Shinsen, they released eps 7. I won't say anything for the benefit of those who dislike Shinsen for whatever reason.

    The biginning of ep 7 was one of the scariest in anime that I have ever seen. Gave me chills.

    That scene from Monster and the scene from Ep 7 are probably the most disturbing things I've seen in anime so far. Ep 8 was a bit freaky but not nearly as disturbing.

    It took some thinking (okay, it was like 2 minutes on google). I'm pretty sure "Speed Grapher" is a reference to the Speed Graphic, one of the most influential cameras until very recently.

    More info about the speed graphic

    I suffered through the load of crap first episode of this series... would it be worth it at all to continue it?

    Watch to eps 3, if you don't like it after that, then you probably shouldn't bother, it wouldn't be a show for you. The first eps is admittedly a bit weak.
