You know a show is good, if you’re still thinking about it days after it ended.

So blue butterfly boy actually answered my question pretty early in the episode. Seems like the reversion back to “normal,” is the person trying to retain their soul, to control their inhibitions. During the fight, there were a few moments where it looked like Yomi was affected/moved by what Kagura was saying. Though it didn’t prevent her from trying to kill Kagura, I’d like to think it was her trying to stay in control.

This time it was Kagura’s turn to hesitate and cost someone their life. The beast battle was pretty awesome, and Kagura’s dad was doing a number on Yomi, until she diverted his attention by attacking Kagura and sliced him in half. To be honest, I thought he was dead then and there. It wouldn’t have been the first time that someone was literally chopped into pieces by Yomi. I’m guessing the death stone at least kept him alive a little while longer.

Episode 10 comes full circle, right back to where we were in episode 2, with plenty of recycled footage to boot. Normally, that sort of stuff really annoys me, but I was cool with it this time around, because we’re now watching it knowing the full back story. For example, when I was first watching ep 2, I thought Yomi had been gone for a while, but knowing that these battle scenes happened right after she escaped the hospital (same night), adds a lot to the story.

The good thing about marathoning a series is there’s no cliffhanger you can’t overcome.

So apparently Yomi wasn’t dead. She was just horribly maimed. Also it turns out the BBB did have a nice little discussion with Yomi. Luckily, it explained quite a bit. Like why it seemed so much more powerful than Tsuchimiya’s Byakuei death stone, and what exactly that new Defense Ministry was doing.

Also, interestly enough, apparently once you kill a human who once had the stone, there’s no sign that they ever had the stone or were demonic in any
