Darker than Black: episode 16 “The Memory of Betrayal is an Amber-Colored Smile… (Part 2)”

I’m getting very excited with an ending like this—Amber returning to her ‘Evening Primrose’, and its purpose is still completely unknown to me. All I guess is that it’s probably connected with the disappearance of the gate in South America. The abundance of new characters in this unknown group also suggests that the finale will [...]

Darker than Black: episode 15 “The Memory of Betrayal is an Amber-Colored Smile… (Part 1)”

Oh wow…although I can’t say this episode is as good as the last, I’m tempted to do so purely because Amber appears, and just by seeing her makes me love her character. Not only is she an awesome C.C. look-alike, but she actually has a personality that I like. I never thought about this until [...]

Darker than Black: episode 14 “On a Silver Night, the Heart Does not Sway on the Water’s Surface… (Part 2)”

Nine point five, the equivalent of a 9.9 before I started rating things lower, and is basically the highest score I would give to an anime episode normally. This episode is truly beautiful visually, musically and story-wise. Well for me anyway. I have a strong desire to see Yin get closer to Hei, and her [...]

Darker than Black: episode 13 “On a Silver Night, the Heart Does not Sway on the Water’s Surface… (Part 1)”

Ah, I’ve been looking forward to this episode ever since seeing the preview for it. It’s not as strongly focused on Yin as I had thought, but with her being an emotionless doll, I guess following her walk around looking dumb wouldn’t be very entertaining. Her background story is pretty interesting though which makes me [...]

Darker than Black: episode 12 “Within the Wall, When You Recover Something Lost… (Part 2)”

I’m a bit disappointed in this episode. The last one got me all excited about seeing the conclusion, though in the end I found this second episode of the mini-arc to be rather lacking. Any potential for a nice fight was thrown away, but I guess Darker then BLACK isn’t about the action. Also, nothing [...]

Darker than Black: episode 11 “Within the Wall, When You Recover Something Lost… (Part 1)”

Finally, Hei becomes the focus character again and we get a tiny bit of character development from him (only a small amount since most of the time he’s just acting). His sister’s appearance probably means we’re going to learn some more about her, unless it’s just an apparition created by some culprit. I’m thinking the [...]

Darker than Black: episode 10 “The Pure White Dress is Stained by the Girl’s Dream and Blood… (Part 2)”

I had begun to lose interest in the series due to the previous 3 episodes, which I did not find as satisfying as I hoped they would be. I expected this episode to be of similar mediocrity as well (though perhaps ‘mediocre’ is a bit too harsh), and was pleasantly surprised to find myself enjoying [...]

Darker than Black: episode 9 “The Pure White Dress is Stained by the Girl’s Dream and Blood… (Part 1)”

This arc has proven to be pretty interesting, especially as it focuses on a main character, Misaki. I guess this episode’s major role would be to develop her background, and perhaps give a reason as to why she becomes a member of the police. However, even though she is a main character, her powerlessness in [...]

Darker than Black: episode 8 “The Gardenia Gives off Fragrance in the Early Summer Rain… (Part 2)”

Sorry for the delay, I had been waiting for Shinsen’s subs. I should be able to catch up pretty quickly though, as Darker than Black is pretty high on my priorities list. Anyway, this episode itself isn’t exactly bad, though I like this arc the least as it has little to do with any of [...]

Darker than Black: episode 7 “The Gardenia Gives off Fragrance in the Early Summer Rain… (Part 1)”

Although the humor is obviously more apparent in this episode, it definitely is not the low-quality, irrelevant-to-plot, not-very-funny episode I had dreaded it to be. It’s still another Darker than Black short story, involving Hei and others, though this time with some random detective as the main character. The young-in-appearance girl isn’t even important, so [...]

Darker than Black: episode 6 “The Red Dream of a Calamity Disappears in Eastern Europe… (Part 2)”

A suitable ending to another two-episode story, though the ending was pretty predictable in certain aspects. At around the 15 minute mark, with nothing much resolved, it became pretty probable for Havoc to be killed. There really was no other effective way to conclude the story, and this is excluding stupid and unbelievable endings. It [...]

Darker than Black: episode 5 “The Red Dream of a Calamity Disappears in Eastern Europe… (Part 1)”

This was certainly one awesome episode, one which is making me rethink about my placements of Lucky Star first and Darker than BLACK second on my favourite’s for this season list. But anyway, I really need to watch the entire series before I can be sure of any of my ratings and such. Anyway, this [...]

Darker than Black: episode 4 “The New Star Twinkles in the Dawn Sky… (Part 2)”

Well that was an interesting turn out to the school girl + mystery scientist dude story. So the scientist is actually the girl’s dad and used some weird seed thing to suppress her powers. However, when the seed wears out, the girl becomes a doll, before finally reverting back to a contractor at the end. [...]

Darker than Black: episode 3 “The New Star Twinkles in the Dawn Sky… (Part 1)”

I find this episode much more interesting than the last, mostly because it introduces a high school girl this time. It looks like all the stories will be in installments of two episodes, so the story of the high school girl should end next episode. As a standard, the seemingly disjointed episodes should eventually clue [...]

Darker than Black: episode 2 “The Star of a Contract Fell… (Part 2)”

How do these contractors or dolls obtain their powers? How do they find out what their punishments are? When do they have to start completing their punishments? What exactly is Hei’s contract and power? All these questions will hopefully be answered as the show carries on, as it is these mysteries which make the show [...]
