Ep 13. With the Coat

With the Coat is the thirteenth episode of the first season of D. Gray-Man anime series. The episode begins with Allen Walker, a charismatic yet inexperienced exorcist, trying to master the art of exorcism. Allen Walker is a member of the Black Order and his main objective is to save humanity from the evil demons known as Akuma.

In this episode, Allen is given a special coat by Komui, the Chief Officer of the Science Division, which is said to protect him from Akuma's attacks. The coat, known as the "Crown Clown," gives Allen enhanced strength and speed, making him a formidable opponent against the Akuma. However, the coat has a very dangerous downside. If Allen uses too much of the Crown Clown's power, he may be consumed by it and become a puppet for the Akuma.

Meanwhile, the Black Order is faced with a dangerous adversary in the form of a powerful Akuma known as Lulu Bell. Lulu Bell is a cunning and manipulative Akuma, with a unique ability to create illusions that can confuse and disorient Allen and his comrades. Lulu Bell has been sent by the Millennium Earl, the leader of the Akuma, to retrieve an important item that is in possession of the Black Order.

As the episode progresses, Lulu Bell gets closer to accomplishing her mission, but Allen and his comrades are determined to stop her. The Black Order launches a counterattack, and Allen uses his newly acquired Crown Clown powers to fight Lulu Bell. The battle is intense, with both sides using all of their power and skill to gain the upper hand. In the end, however, Allen manages to overcome Lulu Bell's illusions and defeats her with a powerful blow from his sword.

After the battle, Allen and his comrades are left exhausted but victorious. However, they soon find out that Lulu Bell was not acting alone. In fact, she was working with a traitor within the Black Order, who had been leaking information to the Millennium Earl. The traitor is revealed to be none other than Suman Dark, a fellow exorcist and friend of Allen's.

The episode ends on a cliffhanger, with the Black Order unsure of how to deal with Suman Dark's betrayal. The Black Order is left with many questions, such as how long he was working with the Millennium Earl, and what they should do with him now that he has been exposed. These questions will undoubtedly be answered in future episodes of D. Gray-Man.

Overall, With the Coat is an action-packed episode that showcases Allen Walker's growth as an exorcist. It also introduces a new and dangerous Akuma, as well as a traitor within the Black Order. Fans of the series will undoubtedly be left eagerly anticipating the next episode to see how this story arc will conclude.
