The stories for the different episodes haven’t impressed me so far. They’re a bit one-sided and uninspired, and series like El Cazador and Night Head Genesis were much better at them. Thankfully, the detective-aspect and the main story of this series did turn out worthwhile so far. I like how Mayuki ad the others figured out what happened inside the train, and the cause of the disappearance of Shichiro.
It seems that Byakko used her hacking-skills to switch the final cabins of the train, where Shichiro happened to be in. While the story of the businessmen who want to stop the guy from winning his case in court is rather standard and unimaginative, I like how much detail has been put into Byakko’s plans. We also get some more information about the main storyline. It seems that the two women we saw in the first episode are nothing more than Mayuki’s two maids. Mayuki also finally confirmed that he’s not a normal boy, when he lighted up and all.
But please… that final scene of the episode was just too annoying. Creators, please develop this a bit more. I don’t think I’ll be able to stand 20 more episodes of both Minori and Yaya feeding cakes to an embarrassed Mayuki. Okay, I know he’s cute, but you don’t have to rub it in. I’ve also been wondering… wasn’t Shichiro accompanied by two other guys? What happened to them? Surely they wouldn’t abandon the guy for no reason at all?
