| Our protagonist is a shady guy... this is new |
 |
| Damn, all those plot twist... It almost made me confused xD So Juugo is in fact a thief that work with the same people that stole the liar gem. Didn't saw that coming, why were they anxious that someone had find their treasure first? Juugo just didn't warned them that he knew about the plan? The talk with his father was interresting too. He kept telling that he was unable to love someone. Is he some kind of sociopath? Because he clearly doesn't seem to have trouble caring for people. Anyway, Tenshi is still as cute and clever than before :P |

| Whoa.. an anti-hero! He doesn't give the atmosphere that hint this idea prior to this. I don't know if this is a clever plot-twist or what though. Mixed feelings. Hmm.. Tensai moments. Gotta love how Tensai deducted Juugo's background. And we also got hints of big development between them. yay~ But I can't believe Juugo easily forgave the president. I honestly don't see on what direction this series is going....and I probably already dropped this if not for the romance tag. |

| I don't understand overreactions about the twist... but anyway, I love how every character is being casual to each other when the business is over. And you know, this is a noitamina product. Don't expect much (except Tensai mai waifu). |

| Pretty good episode. I was a bit confused about the plot twist (haven't really familiarized myself with all the names yet) but I think I get it now...... |

| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| Juugo was someone important, huh... I want to know more of Ikkaku Shunjuu though... |
| I'm not sure if I understood it properly.. I'll just hope next episode will explain and clarify shit a bit more. |
 |
| If anything the only thing that's making me watch this series would be Tensai lol It was pretty stupid how juugo easily forgave the president...(where have we not seen something in anime where the MC forgives the guy that betrayed him??). Wasn't really a fan of all those plot twists, one could have been fine but damn that was too much for one episode. Overall it was a "meh" of an episode, don't really care for juugo at all but I'll still watch this for tensai and nanana |

| Woah that was a great episode and pretty dam solid animation :O! Tensai is awesome!!!! Might be one of the best female leads we've had in a while! Loving this so far! I don't get why so many people are confused and don't like this twist?? There were plenty of indications about Juugo's identity in the past episodes, I was expecting something like this from the beginning. Maybe most people are too used to the current state of anime where everything is spoon fed and explained step by step. |
| was a good ep with the fight scene being okay and I wasn't expecting a plot twist at all |
| Yo |
| So the secrets are starting to be revealed one by one. Things are starting to piece together. |

jiraiya_sensei said: That's taking it too far. The plot twists weren't bad, I understood them all but I wished that they revealed this more evenly than all in one episode. Juugo surprised me. I thought he was the sterotypical straightforward MC but he turns out to be different.Welcome Samurai Flamenco!! |

| wow a Super Twist episode :o |
 |
| A lot of that didn't make sense. Disappointing Isshin Yuiga wasn't even punished or arrested and he was given a large sum of money. |
 |
| Well I didn't expect a big fight scene. It's not like that twist is hard to follow, so I don't know what everyone on here are going on about. |
 |
| When I started watching, I thought I'd missed an episode or something... The fight scene seems incongruous with the last three episodes, and while the plot twist is interesting, it seems as though it was rushed a little. There's such a sharp twist in the tone that it comes off poorly executed rather than shocking - as has been said, it goes from drama to comedy and back and forth to the extent where it doesn't seem like it knows what it wants to be. On the upside, though, Tensai's still there being cool, so I guess I'll keep watching. |
| Oh wow. Juugo is a MC who's actually capable of something... And yet not OP. This show just got more interesting |

I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| WOW, this show is getting really good O_O That disguise certainly had me fooled ... who would've thought Juugo would team up with Matsuri? Not to mention giving them a FAKE ... would've thought she'd test it out at least XD (Also it's Satellizer from Freezing! Knew her voice sounded familiar ...) OK, so Yuigo wanting to rule the world WAS pretty cliched and funny ... well, he didn't know the limit on the Cane clearly :P So Juugo used his knowledge (from Nanana) to stall out the battle ... haha XD That was silly :P Then the third guy from the president's group comes along ... ONLY TO BE MET WITH A HUGE ARMY FROM TENSAI LOL WTF XD They do business after all eh ... OK, so Juugo just got a LOT more interesting. He was working with Matsuri after all ... FROM THE BEGINNING? Also what's with his dad? Seems like he got the Cane, so is he the guy that bought the Cane from Yuigo? After all it seems like he talked about Juugo "succeeding" him (Matsuri leader?) and then brought up him not trusting anyone ... plus he brought up Tensai when forced into that situation eh ;P Ah, too much new information at once >_< I guess the show's only 11 episodes long ... well, looking forward to the next one :D |
| wow, what a twist. was M. Night Shyamalan involved at some point? I feel like i've missed an episode at some point as they just dropped all that at once, Yes it was hinted at but a couple generic "who are you" comments doesn't mean good foreshadowing. Looking foward to more puzzles though, those are where the fun is in this show. |
 |
| What the fuck? I wasn't expecting such a tonal shift from this show. To make things worse, this episode's execution felt really convoluted and clumsy. Some of the conclusions seemed like a complete cop-out as well, like Juugo forgiving Isshin so easily. Really lame. It's a good thing Tensai is Tensai, otherwise I would've dropped this right here and now. Hope this show doesn't fuck up another episode like this. |
| 5/5 Episode valuable, so full of twists and turns as they did not understand anything until the end. Too happy with this turn do so sudden and unexpected. They are also happy to further mysteries that have been added to the plot. Also good clashes during the narration, who has not sinned in anything. Excellent designs and animations. In the next episode, maybe there will be the consecration would like so if you feel it is one of the best this season 2014. |
 |
| Weakest episode so far. The first three were fantastic but this one, I felt like I skipped one or two episodes and was written by a different author. It really doesn't sit well with me when the MC gets blatantly betrayed and someone tries to painfully kill him (I doubt burning, impaling and freezing where just threats) yet he still acts all friendly with the other party afterwards. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| Easily the weakest episode of the series so far. I like the idea of Juugo not being an entirely good guy, but the plot twist wasn't built up enough and felt kind of jarring. Plus, I don't think they explained the twist thoroughly enough. I was really confused by the twist until I looked through here. I don't mind it, in fact it could be quite interesting, I just think the presentation was weak. My hype for this show has been slightly lowered, but I'm still enjoying it. Plus, Tensai is still awesome! |
| Maji hikuu wa. That was terrible. Tensai was still cool, though (But it is starting to tread a fine line. I love how she is able to see through other people's BS and solve puzzles so easily, but having a character just /know/ everything can get old really fast). Like a lot of other people have said, it felt like there was an episode or two between three and this one. The twist was just annoying instead of exciting and it was hard to follow what was happening. It doesn't really matter though, since this is only going to be an 11 episode series. It was never going to go anywhere in the first place. |

| Really nice eps and a plot twist (and we're only in ep 4) Btw, whats the name of Juugo's father voice actor ? I'm really sure I've heard him in lots of places but I can't say where for sure (and no one added this character to MAL yet) EDIT.: NVM, found out after a little search in anime-planet, it's Rikiya Koyama http://myanimelist.net/people/113/Rikiya_Koyama He is Kagetane from Black Bullet, that's why his voice seemed so familiar. http://myanimelist.net/character/83505/Kagetane_Hiruko |

| wtf he fucking 4gave the prez i thought this was a puzzle anime but there was combat n hes from a family of master thieves a tone of plot this ep |
| This episode is seriously confusing,I have to rewatch the entire episode to have a better grasp of what the hell is happening.And why is Juugo letting Isshin off so easily?Im utterly confused of the role the characters play in this series,who is the villian and who is the hero?Except for Tensai who had an more define identity of being the detective. |
| you know one of the things I hate in anime? forgiving MCs.. an eye for an eye, bitch. I'd beat the living daylights out of that president Yuiga if I was him. fuck! I'm so pissed right now.. it's like the whole betraying thing was passed out as a joke. goddammit. and they added some mysteries in here.. I just hope 11 episodes are enough to explain everything |
 |
| Nanana can play even without looking, and still wins. and Mario died spelunking |
 |
| I actually liked this, man why isn't more of the novel translated?! I REALLY want to read it.... seems like I'm always interested in the series that aren't as popular... regarding what happened this episode - I could follow most of it, however, they didn't really show/explain why Isshin walked around "freely" afterwards (I thought Tensai "captured" him?!). And Juugo didn't seemed to mind when they were sitting next to each other on the bench, lol. Like just earlier in this episode Isshin was about to kill Juugo (or deal serious damage at least)... ô.o this anime has SO much potential (I really love the plot and the characters are all interesting as well) but the execusion of this episode was just....really bad |

| Uhhhhh... what the hell is going on? The show kinda lost me there, almost completely. Couldn't even keep up with all the names, which is uncharacteristic of me. I guess I'll just coast along with this then |

| Had to come to the forums and rewatch the episode to have a better understanding of this episode...i like the plot twist but that could have been handled so much better imo. |
| I wish that Juugo did punch the president in the face. |
| this EP felt really off for some reason.. felt like they condensed 6 EPs into 1 |
 |
| Another solid episode! :) |
| Owhh.. Juugo has quite the backstory there. But no reason to hold back that punch boy... man up a bit. |
