Summary(ep.2): Minene Uryu, a terrorist and Future Diary owner, holds Yuki's school hostage, having rigged its corridors with motion sensor bombs. By combining Yuki's diary's ability to predict everything happening around him and Yuno's diary's ability to predict everything happening to Yuki himself, the two manage to evade danger, until Uryu threatens to detonate all the bombs unless Yuki is handed over to her. Yuki is captured by his classmates, angering Yuno who runs down the corridors, causing several classrooms to explode on purpose. Yuki and Uryu are soon confronted by Keigo Kurusu, a police officer with a Future Diary cell phone that is able to predict crimes. Keigo, Uryu's true target, reveals he is not interested in the survival game and just wants to stop criminals. Working together, Yuno, Keigo and Yuki's classmates distract Uryu, allowing Yuki to throw a dart at her Future Diary cell phone. However, Uryu dodges it, injuring her left eye and escaping using her diary's ability. In the aftermath, Keigo forms an alliance with Yuki and Yuno to stop the other diary owners.
Summary(ep.3): Keigo sends Yuki and Yuno to an amusement park to act as bait for Uryu. When Yuki asks Yuno why she keeps following him around, she reminds him of the day they met, one year earlier. Yuki was depressed over his parents' divorce and, to cheer him up, Yuno offered to marry him in the future. Yuki agreed, thinking it was a joke. Although Yuki realises Yuno's still hiding something from him, she refuses to divulge anything more. That night, Yuno invites Yuki to stop by her house. While searching for the bathroom, he opens the door to a room containing three decomposed corpses, an act which changes the future of every Future Diary owner drastically. Terrified, Yuki runs home, only to find Yuno right outside his door. Meanwhile, Uryu finds evading the police difficult, despite her diary's ability to secure escape routes. Exhausted and cornered, she is approached by a mysterious man, who offers to save her and takes her to a hut in the woods. There, he reveals himself as a Future Diary owner, drugging and torturing her to get information on other diary owners.
Review: For episode two I really enjoyed the introduction of the new characters numbers 9 and 4 and also how they revealed the identity of number 3 the serial killer from episode 1. I would say that the story is starting to slow down compared to my initial thoughts of it being a little fast so far as the story line goes I still think there is a little more room for the story to slowdown though. Also, I have instantly fallen in love with one of the most crazy characters that have been introduced....thats right! number 9 Minene Uryu has caught my eye (no pun intended) I always go for the craziest ones no matter what the anime is, but I was kind of lost when she escaped the crime scene on a bike???? I mean where did that come from? At the end of this episode I was not impressed whatsoever by the way number 4 Keigo Kurusu had approached the other two into forming an alliance it really should have had more a dramatic sense to it or maybe have been held off after they had met a few more times, but in the end I guess this episode was good for the most part. Episode three is where some of the real "fun" begins it starts off kind of boring with just Yuki alone with his thoughts, but when Yuno joins him and they head off to have fun at the amusement park thats when things begin to get a little steamy for the two characters ;) I couldn't help but to laugh when a topless Yuno falls into the arms of a very shy Yuki while they are in the pool. Now don;t get me wrong there is no comparing Yuno to a Orihime or Rangiku (bleach), but the way it was presented to us viewers (or at least to me) it seemed as if they wanted her to come off as a sexy girl with a HUGE hint of crazy! :) Moving on now I was not pleased with how easily Minene Uryu was tricked by another Future Diary holder (unknown identity) however It was a good way to introduce another insane character into the show. What I did not enjoy was the Deadman Wonderland eye removal scene within this episode just watching it happen made me wince in pain, and pushed the level of crazy that I have seen for the show past its limit also I won't ruin it for those who want to watch it themselves, but from what I can see Yuno has one scary and sick secret that maybe should not have been revealed to Yuki (for her sake). For both episodes I would say that this is definitely an anime fans of "Death Note" or "Deadman Wonderland" should take a look at, and also for those who maybe just like those dark themed anime just a little more than other genres. :)
My Rating: 4.5 out of 5
