She is then joined by another girl, Mao, and the two quickly befriend Yuki. Fortunately, one girl (called Hinata) whacks Kousaka on the head, shutting him up. This boy, Kousaka, tries his best to ruin Yuki’s prospects in this school as well, talking loudly about how Yuki left his former classmates to die. However, there is in fact one person from his old school in this new class… and for Yuki, it couldn’t have been a worse person. He doesn’t recognize anybody, and is pretty introverted to begin with… but he also realizes this is his chance to start again and make new friends. When Yuki arrives at his classroom (a different class to Yuno, unfortunately for her), he is understandably nervous. Two weeks after the incident with Rei, the kid’s sudden disappearance, Yuki’s mother’s injuries and the state of the house have been covered up with some help from Kurusu. Yuki is finally able to go back to school (a new school, what with his old one being blown up by a terrorist and all), but Yuno warns him not to use his diary there again – that’s what attracted so much attention from the other owners to begin with, after all! On the way there, Yuki notices a boy staring at him from the other side of the road, but when he tries to point him out to Yuno, the boy has vanished. Deus seems to find this idea intriguing, and it makes things more interesting for the viewer too for the first time, we won’t have any idea what a diary owner looks like before they’ve made their appearance.

Then, one of the owners (whose silhouette looks and sounds like an elderly gentleman) makes a request – he wants to transfer his diary ownership to someone else.

The god points out that a third of them have already died… which works out quite well, since the series is about 1/3 of the way through. This pacing is certainly keeping each new episode exciting, because you never know what the next episode will bring… a new diary owner? Something involving Minene and/or Kurusu? A hot springs episode? I wouldn’t put anything passed this series!Įpisode 8 starts with another get together of the surviving diary owners’ silhouettes at Deus’ epic meeting place.

Every time Yuki and Yuno face another diary owner, it’s all over and done with within an episode or two – by then their enemy has either died or retreated. Mirai Nikki is certainly a fast paced show.
