So as the title says im confused about the anime darker then black. Does each episode follow the previous? It doesnt appear that way from ep 3-4. Shouldnt episode 4 have been that guy with the mask taking that girl to japan to see shion or something instead of that tahara episode? I don't quite understand it. Can someone explain how the episodes work and what this anime is? I really like it so far but its getting me confused

As you progress through the show the light shining over the plot dims until it is darker than black.

(assuming you're talking about Season 2 since you mentioned Shion) Yes, it has a chronological order (each episode follows the events of the previous episode). Season 2 adheres to Japanese mythology pertaining to Izanagi/Izanami & Kagutsuchi. Since you haven't watched the whole anime, I won't elaborate nor will I make any further correlations between the myth and the anime series; however, remember that the anime never offers concrete evidence expressly showing that Shion is indeed Izanagi (just some fruit for thought). Considering the final episode of S2, I think a third season is in the works. If you know about the myth, you would know why. If S2 truly is the final season, the myth coupled with DtB Season 2's storyline would be left hackneyed (though I contend that DtB did a rather hackneyed job with Season 2 regardless lulz) and unfinished.

[/quote] No, i was talking about the first season. I suppose the order is messed up on where im watching it. Could i possibly get a link for the first season with the episodes in order? Edit: at above, why were you expecting a "lolblackguy" joke? was it due to the thread tittle? If so and you was looking for one, sorry i got your hope ups?

Im guessing you were switching off from the first season and the second season. Shion is in the second season.

[quote] timmybitty : Im guessing you were switching off from the first season and the second season. Shion is in the second season. [/quote] I wouldnt do something so careless on purpose. I was watching what SHOULD have been the first season on animecrazy.net. In episode 2 or 3 shion was mentioned to be in japanese and bk201(?) Asked this girl if she wanted to go there. They then had a battle at a train station? Next episode, it didnt continue from there and was TOTALLY different as if it wasnt continuing from the previous episode. So as i asked before, could i get a link to the first season with the episodes in order? Im not sure which episodes are to what season and which order they belong in so me searching for it as i just started this anime would be bad.

sano4444 : Eh? There's no Shion in the first season though O_O Well, the same applies to the first season (though it has nothing to do w/ the mythology). That season also follows a chronological order -- each episode follows the events of the previous one. edit: Looking at your starting post, I'm fairly certain that you're talking about season 2. [quote] sano4444 : Shouldnt episode 4 have been that guy with the mask taking that girl to japan to see shion [/quote] This only happens in Season 2. Looks like you were inadvertently switching between seasons xD.

So for the third time, im asking people who has watched the first season, Can i please get a link to the first season where the episodes are in order for the first season only to watch?
