Well Moral, you're fucked.
Hopefully he'll get a beating that'll satisfy me.

Wow.
That ending.
Just...wow.

Also, I usually hate how tears are animated in anime, but they pulled it off very well

I was not expecting it to end like that. Nice better go kick Moral ass for that. Hajime snapped. Somebody gonna die next episode. It better be Moral.


I second this. He needs to die.
Poor Takahiro TTnTT I wanted to see more of him.

Ouch that ending, I was not expecting that at all.
Takahiro's mother was pretty terrible but seeing him explode like that was awful.

This series makes me all confused, sometimes I just hate how "filler-ish" it feels but then it brings these intense moments.

I have to say that Nice and Moral having a drink and chatting it up was weird.
I'll give them credit though for choosing to do that rather than a straight up fight and ass-kicking from the get go. (Which is the kind of situation you would see in other shows.)

Right now I am just questioning what Hajime's true minimum is. Does she have multiple minimums ? Or is this her full minimum power ? In any case I cannot wait to see the next episode.

With the series being lack luster, having a good episode is a plus. Episode 7 and 11 turned it around. Hell, it could actually hit the 7 rating. Which is hard to believe.

Will Hajime show a stronger power than Nice's?

damn this show is surprisingly gory lol
Last week: the guy got head shot with an ice cube lol
That security guard got sledge hammered in the face.
Takahiro asploded the doode's head with his hands.
Then the detonation
Pretty sure Hajime just went super saiyan at the end

RIP Takahiro.....

This was an awesome episode. Moral not only pissed off Nice-kun but also Hajime. I hope they get the bitch that has Art's body also.

That was one of the most brutal endings to an episode I have ever seen. Why wasn't the first half of the anime this good? I would have gave it a higher score if the beginning of the series wasn't so boring.

I think it's about time we really see what Nice can do, I hope he completely manhandles Moral next week. Feel bad for Takahiro.. He was a great son and I teared up seeing his mother accept him.

Honey is so cute! <3 Wish she was shown more..

Next week last episode! What's gonna happen??

I find it really funny seeing Moral and Nice together at Cafe Nowhere.

After seeing a bit of Hajime-chan's power, it seems to me that she is way stronger than Nice.

RIP Takahiro

If only the show had this darker tone all throughout instead of only in certain episodes (or in this case only at the end of an episode)

It's really all over the place and pretty mediocre but it uses these shock factor moments to try and make people forget about how incredibly average the rest is.

OMG!! That was just SO wrong!! Takahiro!! OMG!! I don't know if I'm crying because I'm angry, sad, or both.
Fuck you, Moral! And fuck you too, Nice for taking that bastard for coffee instead of killing his ass!!

RIP, Takahiro. You were a good son until the very end.

My mood has been ruined...

Man, fuck you Moral, I was on the verge of tears when Takahiro's mother was crying over him... but then I saw Moral crying and was like "Nope, I can't do this."... tears did not fall from this one.

The way Nice just walked into the bar with Moral was pretty funny... despite any issues I might have with the series, Nice and the character interactions are fairly decent.

Anyone else wondering how Hajime survived getting shot by the tank's turret?

Dat Gore though!! First with the hammer destroying that guys skull with the spurting blood then with Takahiro (transformed) crushing a person's head with his hand and then finally the explosion of blood O_O Shit that was brutal!!

You mean bloody, not gory. Maybe I'm the only one, but I actually find the way they censor it a little annoying. The worst it showed was that guard getting hit with a hammer. Maybe I'm just "spoiled" by things like Gantz and the like. But it is still a little surprising to see sudden over-the-top blood filled scenes in this anime. Although, when the big bad is a guy who extracts people's brains, I guess it should be expected.

Really? I've never noticed that in any shows I've watched. Even in America, it's common practice to take your shoes off inside, and most Americans I know disdain even sleeping in normal clothes in the bed, if any, let alone socks. I agree though, shoes in the bed would be pretty bad.

No one I know irl wears their shoes on their bed (at least their own bed, I've seen some pretty rude house guests) but it seems to happen all the time in shows and movies. idk if it's because they're set pieces and not meant for any real sleeping but it's still so gross

Why was this episode's attention turned to Takahiro when there's still that Art matter to solve?! Why did Takahiro turn into Nice's motivation instead of Art?!!?!?!? And then last episode is going to focus on Hajime? OMG, just gimme some Art-related screentime/drama already D:

A guy with supersonic speed can't even prevent a groggy attacker from hitting Takahiro's head with a heavy sledgehammer. Instead he conveniently wait until the attacker cracked open Takahiro's head before punching him.

If only this show's characters aren't so retarded.

I agree to what Nice agreed about what Moral said too :D!
Dammit! Why couldn't they just let that annoying old woman die >.<!!!!!!!

I know this supposed to be all dramatic and emotional but....nope. Not for me! ^^

The blood splatter at the end was a nice touch :P
So Hajime is actually the most powerful Minimum Holder?

Well he was doing fine, so maybe he did not interefere seeing how it would turn out. Once it was clear he was unable to fight any longer he interefered. Sounds pretty natural to me.

That end pretty much confirmed that this is one of the best ep of Hamatora for me beside episode 7. See, Hamatora. You could be really great if you tried! Takahiro though. ; ;

Was that a tissue-related power I just witnessed?

Tbh Honey is the only interesting character in this series for me. Hajime could be but she wasn't explored much. All I know is that she is a moe character who loves to eat but just coz someone told she is getting fat, so she is trying to slim down now for no reason. Oh and also, she cares for her comrades like every shounen character does... Well, That's not enough for me...

That blood surprised me... It suddenly got interesting near the end with Takahiro dead and a pissed off Nice-kun.

I just feel like there was so much wrong in the writing.. Wasn't the "mother" afraid of him seconds ago? Then now she's proud of him? Lol-worthy. And the death, I don't feel shit to be honest, because of the annoying mom. Then Hajime's reaction, and her outburst at the end, it feels meh. The blood spattering was quite the scene.. I feel bad for Takahiro.

P.S. Lol @ the beginning, "Let's have a cup of tea (or coffee) with the enemy."
