remember the iron man episode? I found a strong resemblance in this Bonnie and Clyde Scifi picture  http://adonihs.deviantart.com/art/Bonnie-And-Clyde-2666-94592686

O.O

So during ep 14, Tome-san realized she was poisoning Chiko right? And she was bluffing with the Aunt about her tea being poisoned and bluffing that Chiko is super good at detecting poison? Or was the detection part true? I don't remember.
I'm not sure whether I'm doing anything wrong, but I'm not permitted to view the picture (I get an error page stating I have no permission to view it) - do I simply need a deviantart account, or something more/else to view it?

I don't know whether Tome-san would know about Chiko's detection/tasting skills, but the anime shows this from the very first episode - quite memorable, for me at least, because Chiko's behaviour seemed very strange until it was explained as her not eating her aunt's poisoned food - which she noticed by tasting it.
Seeing how Tome-san was shown with a second glass with similar pills in her hands, she pretty much must have bluffed instead of really poisoning Chiko's aunt.


It seems I had some information confused - I looked on the wikipedia article for the series (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Daughter_of_Twenty_Faces) and it said the manga was completed, but that there's a sequel (called Nijū Mensō no Musume Utsushiyo no Yoru) which is still continuing. I guess I got confused with other manga series (like Trigun -> Trigun Maximum) which switched publishers/went on hiatus and came back with another title but with a continuing storyline.

Thanks for the latest episode! The series does seem unique in some aspects, and in any case is definitely worth watching. Though I'm worried that it (and Nabari no Ou, which I'm watching, too - perhaps partly because the protagonist is equally different from mainstream as Chiko...) do not have completed storylines because the mangas aren't finished yet? Both are scheduled for 22 episodes - what's going to happen after that if the manga still continues? A TV only ending like Claymore (hopefully not)?

Oh, and the project status for Twenty Faces hasn't been up to date for some time now - could somebody update that :)? It's really useful if it's somewhat up to date.

Hi - I just wanted to ask about the progress on this anime series (I quite like it, although I never watched the Lupin animes or similar things, and I also don't know the manga by Edogawa Ranpo). Your progress was actually really fast until two weeks ago, so a short reply like "the translator is busy with other things" or something like that would be great (in case there isn't such a note somewhere already).

Obsessively visiting this website every day hoping there's a new episode becomes a bad habit quickly^^.

That being said, thanks for your great work! I've finished Shion no Ou and am currently watching The Daughter of Twenty Faces and The Rose of Versailles - all very enjoyable series!
