Well, nothing much really happened in this episode besides the revelation at the end with Chihiro. That was a little shocking as I was having a lot of difficulties deciding on who or what she exactly was. I figured that there might be some kind of a parallel world thing going on or maybe the Chihiro that Renji was meeting this whole time wasn’t actually her but just an image or something. This episode’s thrown that theory out the door though, of course.

Now how does Chihiro remember about her sister or Himura, though? I guess she sees or hears from them often enough to have it hardened or carried over to the next minute in time? Technically, I guess Renji could do the same if the two will forever be together but that’s a pretty lame solution so that’s probably not how they’ll conclude that arc.

We got to hear a nice violin track when Hiro was running up the stairs and I’m hoping that we’ll we’ll get more in the future. The ending theme got swapped with the track that’s played on the website although that’s supposedly the actual opening theme. This track is tons better than the ending theme that was played on the first episode. The animation sequence in question was also really cool. There weren’t too many artistic liberties taken this episode but that animation sequence more than made up for it. :)
