Wow! This week's ep was made of pure win.
On the other hand it also was the worst choice for an episode title in an episode preview I have ever seen. Oh well, it was obvious from all the "Oh they probably want to give Asuma more screentime before he |spoilertag|!" postings, so at least that wasn't news to me.

No nanashi, your initial sentiments are dead on. That is the worst possible title for a preview, EVER. It completely gives it away, at least in ttgl, kamina's death was hinted at. Here, its literally telling you asuma dies. Now its just leaving it up to the viewer to find out how he died.

I no lol, when i saw that i felt really sorry for the people that don't read the manga. They've had the whole thing ruined for them.

Good point, Cross. *will spend the next week playing through various scenarios* :9
Oh - and the soundtrack during the fight at ~37:xx was great!
