How'd Himiko manage to throw that BIM off her with a second left (and unconscious?).

Know Sakamoto wasn't stupid enough to just get the stuff. How'd he avoid the blast though?

Anyways, looking forward to Sakamoto vs. the guy next ep.

The manga explains the "lolwut how you survive that explosion" much better. Maybe next episode they'll elaborate on it. Still an entertaining episode :D

Is this really going to be 12 episodes? At this rate they just hijack that chopper and it becomes anti-climatic.

It was cool to see both men fought each other... it was the husbands were fighting each other and so were the wives. Oda vs Ryouta and Himiko vs that other bitch.

That was pretty close explosion there Ryouta... now go fuck him up!

I don't mind them now explaining how Sakamoto survived next episode but can someone explain to me how Himiko was able to safely avoid the explosion?

Yes, I'm aware she said she threw it while panicking but I'm sure it would take way more than 1 second as the bomb itself still on her chest when the timer was on 1. From what I can see, timer bombs are pretty strong in terms of explosion.

So where did Oda pull out that remote detonator from? He sure didn't have it in his mouth the entire time nor did he have much of a chance to move to get it from anywhere with Ryouta watching.

Why does Sakamoto trust every single person? At least himiko knows he's trying to kill her.
The episode was good but not that great. Though Oda kicked ass.

My thoughts exactly. She would of had no time to throw it away with out at least being slightly injured from the explosion.

Btw, to everyone who's wondering how he survived at the end:

He simply escaped the trap before it detonated. It's also likely that he was suspicious of Oda the whole time. I know it seemed like an impossible trap to escape, but they just used a film technique to build suspense. The writers made it seem like Ryouta had died. It worked on me, for a second I thought he actually died!!

Great episode. Oda actually seems like an interesting character, plus he's voiced by Nakamura Yuuichi. I'm glad to see Himiko caught on so fast that Date wasn't to be trusted.

If you combined Himiko's lack of trust in people with Sakamoto's skills, you'd get an unbeatable player.

Sakamoto's trusting skill cancels out Himiko's lack of trust. Just look at Sakamoto, he already trusts the doctor guy. Though the trusting after helping wasn't the issue, trusting the second you met and telling how much of those green chips you have is.

That was one of the better episodes as there was no time to show too much of Sakamoto and his thoughts.
But wth is with this inconsistencies? Sakamoto wasn't moving after the explosion but still appears on the radar. But at another times - when it's needed for dramaturgy *cough* - people don't appear on the radar.. and that's just one of many flaws.

He had better thought until now. Yes, pressure here was pretty high, but I still think it was a bit too dangerous and a bit too stupid to make so unsafe moves. I'd rather kill that guy, but if Sakamoto did it, he would just show that he is a hypocrite. But he is alive, for me it's nearly impossible to live through this explosion, but it's classical for this type of anime xd.

Hope you'll get it, my english's weak.

You need to give it time to explain some of the char's actions. Sakamoto wasn't being dumb at all, it was all according to plan which you'll see why next ep.

hmm, pretty dumb episode.. Ryouta surviving that explosion in the end and that Himiko first believing that unknown guy.. and many other nonlogical things. I guess previous ones were a lot better so this is just drop back to standard of this anime.
Let's hope the next ep would be one of those better ones.

It's not plot armor it is better explained in the manga than it is in the anime. I don't want to spoil it so if you are interested go look it up yourself. It was poorly illustrated to say the least. I think they might elaborate on his "miraculous" survival the next episode.

Great episode, although the ending wasn't too great for me. How could he survive 3 remote-controlled traps when he fell straight into the middle of it without any injuries. I at least thought he would say how he countered it when he started with, "However,...", but he just said he won't lose.. Other than that it was a great episode, lots of action. I wonder how and when they will find out that guy cannot be trusted and is in fact an enemy.
Looking forward to the next episode, really great series.
5/5.

Even though the cool guy with the glasses is hostile, I still think he's badass and he should join Sakamoto's team imo. Himiko already knows what the Doctor is up, I hope she'll tell Sakamoto soon.

I think he used some trick to avoid the bombs, I don't believe that this show is lame enough for some magic armor that only the important characters have.

@All people saying how the fuck he survived. He knew it was a trick, lol. Sakamoto made him think he was moving towards the case, we saw this in Oda point of view, but in reality sakamoto wasn't there. >Regard this image

Am I the only one who thinks its obvious how Sakamoto survived? He stood directly on top of the the chips, bims because he knew that guy wouldn't want to destroy them and the blast radius of remote control bombs is probably low or something. (They didn't say that about the remote controlled ones. I'm just guessing.)

Maybe the explanation is something else but I'm pretty sure it's not just plot armor.

That girl is a bitch and Himiko is falling for her trash talking. Either way, Himiko's wariness around men might be an advantage in dealing with Date.

Nice one, Sakamoto!

This anime is way underrated , honestly .

Anyways , food wars at its best this episode .Seems like everyone is really hungry there after 3 days .So there's still a lot of persons left in that battle royale .

Seems like that girl with Oda knows some grappling skills ? And wow , how the hell did Himiko escaped that lock .

And when I saw that case just lying somewhere , I immediately thought "This guy is a dead man ."

Anyways , Oda already planted some of those remote controlled BIMs that fast ? Or did he just detonated those BIMs still in those bags ? And those ppl annoyed how Sakamoto survived that blast , well I dont blame you , even Oda got fooled by him . lol .

And the moment I saw Oda and Sakamoto running then jumping off that cliff to get the case , I immediately noticed that they gotta have something in common .They really seem closely alike .Looking forward to those last 3 eps .

AND THIS
MADE MY DAY . xD

Lol that grappling lady was over the top. When she got her in a rear naked choke and locked her legs in front of hers, I bust out laughing. xD So pro it was funny as hell. xD I liked how Himoko, knew that doctor was dangerous. And her will to live was romantic. =3333

I really loved how that other guy set off the trap with his teeth. Freakin awesome. I wonder how Sakamoto got away from that though....

Can't wait for the next episode! Hopefully they'll show how he avoided it. =o
