Yepp ep 8 was great.
I was pretty surprised that they solved the problem with Kuesu that fast and that she could react like this. Its a nice twist, but I still cant see her as a real allie.
But I wonder why the other families want their two families dead. Ok Kuesus because they learned western magic and I think Yutos because they stopped beeing Demon Slayers.

@Nemingway: Yeah I wouldve wanted to switch with him too. I couldnt have restrained myself ^^

For information, episode 8 is out since 2-3 days and it is very excellent ! I misjudged Jingiji, she is very sensible and kind toward the hero (I always forget his name). She surprised me a lot in this episode, I didn't expect her to react in "that way".

I was also jealous when Himari had a full cat behavior. I wanted to be in the place of the hero. Having a nekomini saying "niaaaooow" and jump into you to hug you in your chamber.... What can I ask else? xD

Over all, a great episode ^^

According to the Keishou [KSH] site, the people who are subbing it, they have the raws for episode 7 of Omamori Himari, but they are still working on the translation, and then have to go through tlc, editing, timing, typesetting, qc, encoding, and then finally distro. So depending on how elite and fast they are episode 7 should be here soon.

I personally can hardly wait.

Its not like this is some groundbreaking animation, but it is always entertaining a little, makes me laugh some, and oh my God Himari's voice. Better than k-on or chu-bra.

And here I thought we would only see Ayakashi beeing on his side (at least Im pretty sure Kueu will be on his side judging from the OP). Its good to see another Demon Slayer.

The only bad thing about this anime is that there isnt really that much that surprises someone. I knew that Himari would get into evil-mode after seeing the training or that she says "so I will be the first Ayakashi you kill after becoming a Demon Slayer" (ok the sentence was a bit different ^^).

But still a good anime up until now.

I'm sure she has the ability to do that whever she wants since she happens to be a water spirit.

In any case as for his "Mental Training" I'm glad that they actually followed the manga there. I mean it really annoyed Himari to the point of where she decided to go full on catgirl mode against him for the next few days.

I can relate with your post. I really like the characters although for Himari itself is also a bit of a letdown. She doesn't have a feeling about her that makes her an exceptional character. Shizuku and Liz have much more radiance about them. Maybe this is due to the comedy factor. Even Rinko has a certain comedy factor which is fun to watch (the middle factor . that was one great remark ). For the interaction between Yuuta and Himari: it lacks feeling to my opinion. The last part of episode 5 was mediocre for me due to this.
I do hope they somehow get the girl of his memory into play. That could provide another funny story.

Okay, episode 5... Shizuku is censored, Himari is not. WTF?!?

I don't like what they did with the memory thing in episodes 4 and 5. The manga left it ambiguous as to whether the kiss in Yuuto's memory could have been from Himari or not (black and white and whatnot), whereas the anime actually made me wonder if they had changed the storyline to make the kiss come from Himari. Incase someone doesn't know who really kissed him and doesn't care about spoilers, the kiss came from Kuesu. The girl in his memory had black hair and purple eyes and even appeared just as cat-form Himari disappeared from sight. That's a bit different than I remember it, as though they're trying too hard to fool the audience.

I did not have this show on my watch list. I don't know why! I was a bit hesitant at first because from the look it was a big breast anime and almost seemed like a Kanakon. I was wrong!!

The characters are attractive, story while being far from believable is enjoyable. Comedy is quite funny, and the echiiness is not over done but find it tasteful and a nice addition. Shizuku is an awesome cold loli character. I am looking forward to more of her scenes and attitude.

Only complaint so far is the voice of Yuuta, It sounds whiny and feeble and takes his character down a lot!

If it follows the manga like it's doing then yes it'll drag on for at least a couple more episodes.

For some reason I get this feeling that they are skipping a few more chapters and heading into a quick intro on all of the main characters in this series. Well never the less I really liked seeing Himari in the maid outfit since it's been a long time since I saw a catgirl maid in an anime anymore.

Ep 3 was quite nice too with good character development for everyone and with Liz an interesting new character. I mean who couldve thought that the teacup was the Ayakashi oO

It was great to see how Shizuku made Himari & Rinko jealous. I wonder if they will drag that out, I hope so.
