They're taking this in a really interesting direction, where maybe Hiro was going to learn to be a better person, but now that's all going to change I think... They also made a point of showing us that for all their differences, Hiro and Inuyashiki have one big thing in common: they both struggle with the fact that they are no longer physically human.

Really interesting episode, I just wish Amazon Strike could get it together and have a fixed schedule like Crunchyroll, instead of making me wait until Saturday to watch an episode that came out Thursday... and of the top contender for AotS no less...

lol i had so much to rant abt w/ this episode and just the whole show in general but i'll just say the characterization is rly fuckin lazy. the idea of an old man as the protagonist sounded rly interesting but this execution makes him interchangeable with his younger counterparts from other anime.

and andou and all his fuckin crying is so annoying

Hiro won't get any sympathy from me. He's been killing people cold-heartedly and his love for his mom won't change that. Too late for change now.

Hiro only cares about people he interacts with on a day to day basis which is normal for most people. But most people won't go around and kill for fun.

TFW I just realized I'm fucked up in the head. I'd do worse than him if I had his powers.
villain feels more real than the hero to me smh

So did Ando rat him out!? Fuck and Hiro was totally about to change his ways (sarcasm because no way that crazy fuck was gonna stop killing people lmao) Also where does Hiro go from here!? He's probably going to get away, but what then, just start killing everybody, or live in seclusion in the middle of nowhere and hope he is never found again! hmmmmm

This was almost like a plot twist I can't believe he cares for his mother but seeing humanity in him is much better than that cold monster look. can't wait for the next episode I wanna read the manga xD


The fact he kept going to Ando's house showed that he has feelings for people he knows.

The scary part of Hiro is that he gives zero fucks for anyone he does not know or like.

He is a complete and utter sociopath.

This anime is simply to good, i freaking love it!
Naoyuki's crying part was such a strong moment, it felt so real.
The irony that coincidently Naoyuki is the one that will help Inuyashiki to train and fight against his ex best friend.
I think that watching his mom in that way made him regret what he did, but now it's kinda too late. I don't know if it was sub's fault but i thought that the TV said that the suspect was an old guy, for a moment got scared.
Now that he got caught i wonder how things will evolve.
A 10/10 episode.

Pretty good episode.

Andou and Inuyashiki have teamed up to stop Hiro. It was nice to see someone appreciating Inuyashiki's effort in doing good things.

It was interesting to see Hiro taking care of his mother and was willing to give up killing people for her sake but that doesn't excuse the fact he murdered innocent people. In the end he got caught and I'm interested to see how he will react.

Beautifully done - that was probably my favorite episode to date. While I do think MAPPA is following the manga a little bit too much down to a T, it's been a great ride so far. We were able to see so much more depth in Shishigami's character, especially when it's revealed that he secretly wishes to return to being human despite all the power he's accrued.

Poor Andou, I feel he's the one who's cornered and has all the burden lol.
Still it was a little cheesy how easily he came across Ichirou lol, and my god is he a sensitive fellow xD. Honestly its funny that for a guy who loves Gantz so much he gets easily sentimental lol.
Loved the ending of the episode. Consequences of Hiro's vile actions have caught up to him, really looking forward to the next episode.

I don`t think author expected us to feel sympathy for Shishigami, but... I like his development. Seeing him to regret his decisions a little bit is quite... "satisfying". Asking his mother and receiving such an answer was the best way to play with his mind. Seeing that his mother is the most precious person for him it was really well written.

"I suposse I will die with you". I really like this scene.

Inuyashiki is our hero! :D

People complaining about the show probably haven't read the source material or Gantz. Gantz was more graphic and way worse than Inuyashiki is. Inuyashiki is milder compared to the shit that happened in the Gantz manga.

Andou's room is filled with Gantz poster, talk about shameless self-promotion lol

Shion is called pubehead? Ew.

I find it interesting that they can still feel emotion, cry, etc. even though they're cyborgs. Hiro wants to kill for no reason but cries when he finds out his momma has cancer. He steals money and moves his momma into an upscale apartment.

Hiroya Oku loves making his characters cry. Gantz was also filled with bawling characters with streams of tears in their eyes and snot coming out of their nose. Andou is no different, tears, snot, the works.

I'm pretty sure Andou's the one who tipped off the fuzz. The way he side-glanced Hiro was suspicious.

Hirou was like, "I"m going to stop killing" then they come to arrest him. LOL We know how this is going to turn out.

That is what you get wrong. He never regretted it, his affection to those people related to him (Mother, Father probably, Could have been Andou) drives him further than his lust for dominance. He is clinging to that affection because he is afraid of acknowledging he is not a human anymore, but a robot killing machine. And no one who knew him would say otherwise, which is exactly the opposite of Inuyashiki. He might have stopped there, he might have kept killing people, even if to merely provide for his family - we will never know. His vile actions have caught up with him.

Understand Hiro wanting to look out for the people he cares about but you couldn't have listened to Andou and realize it was wrong before going on more killing sprees? Or think "hey my mom might not like me being a killer"? Ah well, let's see if Hiro will get some (pfft) comeuppance and (heh) redemption.

The hospitals in Japan sure have shitty security if an old man is allowed to just wander into the rooms of sick patients/children and fondle them.

If Hiro would've stuck to helping his mom and maybe playing stupid pranks like porn on the TVs in the store in the first place, he'd be just fine. I wonder how they managed to catch him or if they're going to be able to actually convict him...I mean, there's no evidence.

It's interesting that Hiro's mom says the exact same thing one of his victims says... "I don't want to die!" It does make me wonder if... if not quite regret, if he does feel he's doing something forbidden that isn't really worth it. Definitely seems he doesn't want to participate in killing anymore at the very least so he doesn't ruin his mother's affections towards him (because he genuinely loves her).

Hiro has made horrible choices up to this point, but imo not ones entirely unrealistic for a disconnected teenager who has been handled great, godlike power. Even if he is in no way innocent, it IS a bit sad to see him getting his comeuppance when he's decided to use his powers on his positive feelings (affection towards his mother), rather than the negative.

Part of me wonders if Hiro was (much) older if he'd be committing these same actions. Youth is a time of great growth after all.

Regardless, I feel for Andou. Andou's in a tough spot when it comes to reporting on his friend. After all, even if you think this friend wouldn't hurt you, there is really no way to fight back if he decided to.

his friend snitched on him like a bitch because he idolized some old guy why are people championing andou? I just don’t get what the problem was he was killing people but he wasn’t harming andou’s family or anyone he knew so why did it even matter so much?

The crying animation doesn't fit their semi-realistic face. Besides that, characters don't tear up. They suddenly start crying nonstop and leave a bold trail after that.

And still, Bill will live on.
He will befriend the next inhabitants of the earth, beings of light who revere him as a god.
And Bill will outlive them all... for millions and millions of years...exploring, learning, living,
until the earth is swallowed beneath his feet.
Until the sun is long since gone.
Until time loses all meaning and the moment comes that he knows only the positions of the stars
and sees them whether his eyes are closed or open.
Until he forgets his name and the place where he'd once come from.
He lives and he lives until all of the lights go out.

Ando tagging along and feeling so happy towards the things Inuyashiki did for the sake of those around him regardless of whether he knew them or not was heartwarming.

Way to think things through only when mother dearest tells you to after almost losing her, Hiro. He should very well know that murdering other people has consequences and getting caught by the authorities made him realize that he had decided to lay low a little too late. That might also lead to the government finding out about the existence of human weapons like the old guy.

Finally, a 'decent' episode after disastrous 4 of them.

So, we know that Hiro just lacks morals but he cares about people he interacts with on a day to day basis. Still, he would've realized something bad was gonna happen sooner or later.

Also, Inuyashiki got an ally.
