D.Gray-Man episode 7

I just did a recap in episode 6, so we will skip that in this episode. Like always, beware of spoilers :). Heh, double blog post today!


The Millenium Earl remembers who Allen is, the one who turned his father into an akuma. Linalee gets there in time to hear this. Allen then has a flashback about a man who took him in when nobody else would. This man’s name was Mana. He was abandoned because of his arm, but Mana still took care of him regardless. When Mana was about to die (he was hit by a carriage) his last words were “keep on walking! Allen. Live your life to the end”. Allen was around 10 when that happened. The Earl shows up, and asks if Allen wants Mana back. Allen aks the Earl if thats really possible. The Earl laughs and brings out a skeleton thingy, and Allen calls out Mana’s name. Mana turns into an akuma, and yells at Allen “Allen, How dare you turn me into an akuma! I curse you. Allen!” Mana, slashes Allen’s eye, and the Earl tells Mana to kill Allen. Just then Allen’s anti-akuma weapon appears and, acting on it’s own, it attacks Mana. Mana’s soul accepts his fate, and Allen sees it with his eye. Cross soon finds Allen, and asks if he wants to become an exorcist. Notice that the curse turns Allen’s hair white, it was brown before. Allen goes on to tell them why the souls of akuma are crying, and says that the reason he fights as an exorcist is for the akuma. The Earl tells Allen that he should have killed him long ago(the Earl doesn’t like the fact that Allen can see the souls of akuma). The Earl procedes to fire at Allen, but Allen dodges easy. The Earl then calls in a lot, and when I say a lot I mean A LOT, of akuma. He believes that with enough akuma he can kill Allen. Linalee activates her innocence and joins the fight against the akuma. They fight for a long time, and basically nothing happens. A lot of buildings get destroyed and stuff, but otherwise nothing important happens. Finally, Allen activates a special ability - Cross Grave. It kills all of the akuma in one hit. The Earl escapes with the help of his umbrella, Marry Popins style (his umbrella is alive though). The Earl gloats that soon his akuma will evolve, and it wont be so easy. Jean sends a present with Allen to his father, it turns out to be an onion bomb, and it blows up in his fathers face. The father says that the kid isn’t ready for the science department. Allen tells him that Jean agrees, and it goes into a flashback.
Epilogue - To say plainly, this episode SHOULD have been before 2 and after 1. They seemed to have changed it a little though, when going to the anime version. Otherwise he would have just used his gun to attack the akuma. Anyways, they made it how they made it so it hardly matters anymore.
