Probably because of the sequence of the events.

I thought the second season was pretty interesting though. [And that last episode was an outright season 3 bait.]

2 words: Season 2.
The OVA is the real season 2 in my opinion. All the stuff with Suou that we saw was garbage. In fact, the OVA made the second season's plot look pointless beyond reason. I look forward to the remaining OVA episodes as they actually contain the feeling and sensation from the original Darker than Black. The preview for the second episode was an incredible teaser and more Yin is definitely welcomed given that she had an incredible lack of screen time in the second season. More Amber is welcome too, but I'm not getting my hopes up for too much of her appearance, if any.

On another note, what's odd about the OVAs is that they list the first season title: Kuro no Keiyakusha instead of Ryuusei no Gemini despite everyone calling this the Ryuusei no Gemini OVA....

Finally the first OVa is out and it was just amazing.
You could actually see that Yin and Hei both are changing and it was great to see Yin trying so hard to get nearer to Hei while Hei beginns to become more and more like he was at the beginning of the second season.

The fights were great too even though I really wanted to see the battle in the hotel because these two guys looked like pretty good enemys.

I heard there is only going to be 4 OVA episodes.

As for the supposed episode 13....didn't hear about that untilu said it and I checked anidb as well.....certainly weird.

so looking at anidb's site, there is supposedly an episode 13 that is suppose to come out today. In addition, checking the dvd/blu-ray release dates, it seems there are a total of 8 for a 12 episode series, this must mean we're going to get a lot of OVAs

Houston we have a problem. No more DtB.

The Yin = alive theory is as good as dead. Yeah, she's probably dead. Another thing that can support this is the last scene in the OP, where two stars fall. Probably referring to Yin and Suou [red and blue stars], or if that's wrong, Izanami and Izanagi.

Though, it should be noted that the director said that Yin "seems" to be dead and Hei "seems" to be alive. It's all quite ambiguous but heavily leans towards Yin being dead.

I also realized that Izanami dies giving birth to Kagutsuchi in the myth so yeah. She's dead.

Though, that's the only thing that changes.

Final words: Hei is alive, Yin is dead.

WHATS THE SONG IN EPISODE 10 WHERE THE MOM STARTS TELLING HER STORY????????/

Yeah, but don't rely on it too much. I could still be wrong about a few things, e.g. whether Yin is really dead or not etc. It's just the most plausible turnout based on the main plot element, the Mitaka Documents and the Japanese creation myth allegory in the show.

Thanks to Kit and Kael for your enlightening posts. Maybe I'll marathon too once the OVA comes out since I believe it's supposed to bridge the gap between the two series.
