I cannot believe how ridiculous this episode was....
1) How causal they were when they heard that Kazami had fallen two stories, they casually walked from their rooms like they didn't give a care in the world.
2) The whole fire thing...yes lets stay in a building where the dining hall is on fire. That's a good idea. And the fact that the fire didn't spread was unrealistic.
3) The dude who was stabbed, Sakakibara basically abandoned the guy to check on the room. I know he helped him after. But he should've moved him to a safe spot first.
4) Mei's reaction to the whole thing. I'm not sure if she's just not afraid of death or what but it looked like she could care less that people were dying in front of her.
I know it's a lot of complaining from me, but my god this episode was just bad.

I agree with you....this episode was utterly ridiculous!!!

The fire explosion was illogical, the deaths were beyond ridiculous, and Misaki's reaction to everything was so retarded, I was literally screaming at my computer.

I'm just hoping the finale is better than this episode.

how beta can you get? lol
unless there is a deep plot reason for that....like Sakakibara being dead after all and she doesn't want to kill him because she wants his dick or something.

Between the first and the second time the doors were open only a few minutes had passed.

I made a HUGE mistake of eating dinner while watching this episode. Now I feel sick.

Definitely the goriest episode by far. And while there were lots of suspense and horror, many of the characters went full retard. I'm pretty sure a fire that has consumed the whole dining hall would spread pretty quickly. I'm also pretty sure that you can sense the heat coming from the doors. And I'm also positive that no one would be stupid enough to open a hot door AFTER hearing about the fact that there is a fire. That part was so dumb.

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

This episode feels so rushed that its good in the sense that so many people are dying because of stupidity, and they're just accelerating the phenomenon themselves, by killing each other relentless. I can't wait to see how it ends. I know who the extra one is, and Misaki probably left in a hurry to kill that person.

The door was already open a little bit when sakakibara looked inside so oxygen was still flowing into the dining hall from the outside. And a fire of that size would probably burn through oxygen pretty quickly, so i'd say a few minutes would be plenty of time for a backdraft to occur.

WOW that was a good episode. Usually this anime is calm throughout the episode and has one epic crazy death moment, but this episode was crazy all around!

In the end, I thought Akazawa was the only sane one and was like "thank god", but then she thinks Misaki killed Takako and concludes she is the dead one and goes crazy... The only sane people besides Sakakibara and Misaki are Teshigawara and Mochizuki...

Then I guess ep 12 will be a reversal
epic crazy death thorough the episode and one calm moment (the end)

Also..I actually laughed at the conversation between these two brain-dead guys before one of them got burned

That was the only realistic part of the episode though. That actually happens in real life if you suddenly open a door to a room where a fire is blazing and is oxygen starved. A huge fireball will pretty much "explode" out of the room. It didn't happen when Kouichi looked in the first time because the door was ajar so oxygen was still feeding the blaze.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backdraft

FIRE SAFETY TIP #1: If in a fire, gently touch the door or the handle. If it's cool to the touch it's probably safe to open.

What the fuck? If my aunt died like that I wouldn't just shrug it off and walk away like I don't give a damn.

Reiko is Kouichi's aunt, and she is also Miss Mikami. She gives Kouichi advice on how to make it through Yomiyama through a series of "rules". One of them, is to separate the private life from school life, thus Kouichi addresses her as Reiko at home, and Ms. Mikami at school.

SO EXPLAIN SOMEONE, WHY THE FUCK DOESN'T HE CARE THAT HIS AUNT DIED RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM? Does he have no emotions?

OK, about the fire:

Here's why I don't think it was logical....

First of all, from the moment the door is closed (by Kouichi) to the moment it was re-open there had only been a few minutes, IMO, not enough time for a REAL backdraft especially as violent as the anime showed it.

Secondly, the character that opened the door only did so because he "Smelled something burning"....

From Wikipedia:

"Characteristic signs of a backdraft situation include yellow or brown smoke, smoke which exits small holes in puffs (a sort of breathing effect) and is often found around the edges of doors and windows,"

No where does the anime show smoke coming out of the door or the characters seeing smoke coming out of the door.

Finally, I highly doubt after a huge explosion there would be a "Flame thrower" effect the way we saw in the anime. (This is when the character that opened the door got literally barbecued to death, it happened AFTER the explosion)

So the anime has to explicitly show it for it to be occuring? lolk.

In case you didn't notice, they cut directly to the guy opening the door and didn't show anything else. No cuts of the door.

Like other have said before me, this ep was so Higurashi (and I fucking loved that show).

Best episode yet goes to ep 11. This is what I wanted from the get-go, but there had to be a build up (obv was necessary). Going swell so far.

On a somewhat unrelated note, I was watching it and it was so intense when like 17 minutes in, my computer decided to CRASH and made this super loud noise. To say the least I almost shit my pants. I am so on edge lol

No, the anime didn't HAVE to show it, but if it did, it would've been much more realistic than what I saw.

Why not show a 2 second scene where smoke is coming out of the doors to make it seem more realistic that the room is really oxygen starved???

Like I said, only a few minutes had passed from the door being closed, is that really how explosions happen???

Unlikely....it would probably take more time, more smoke.

The anime made it illogical, yes, a backdraft can happen in real life, however since this anime makes everything so illogical (I'm talking about the deaths) I'm left to question just how realistic the explosion was.

I've been avoiding pressing the spoiler button, and will still do so until the end of the Another. I'm now really curious who the "extra one" might be. Some suspects are already cleared of in this episode, but the prime suspect Misaki Mei according to the students still has something to her mind. One more episode to go and then I'll pick up the manga to see how different it is compared to each other.

1 more week, hang in there!
