Meh episode. It was more of a built-up with some reflecting on their current situation and Art.

Do some of the characters realize the potential dangers of facing the Minimum Users? I guess one guy found out the hard way.

It was a slow episode, but it escalated quickly near the end.

I wonder why their bodies are acting like that.

Poor Gasquet, should've known not to mess with minimum users... It's sad to see the old man go out like that, his last words were touching.

Even Art was struck by the loss of his former partner. If only Art and Murasaki made it in time...

Funny how Nice has turned from the looking like the strongest character to looking like a weak blob...

It's rather interesting what's happening to Nice and his friends after they use their minimums, it's like an adverse reaction to using them.

How easily Art told the weird bunch that now he just has to kill Nice because his plans require it.

We also got to see Theo and Rei this episode, long time no see since the first season if I'm not mistaken lol.

Poor Murasaki's personal life is all about doing the chores that Nice is too lazy to do and can't handle T.T

Gasuke-san nooooooooooo!!!!

Art needs to go down as soon as possible...

While I didn't expect the old man to die (this soon at least) i'm far from being impressed.

Disappointed! But I feel sad for Gasuke. . .

More tension between Nice and Art. They should get a room already. I still want to know, what really happened to him that changed him to be like that.

I had a feeling that Freemum is a shady group. Now it's confirmed with their partnership with Art.

Minimum Holders begin to detect problems in their bodies. Still not sure what's the reason for the cause. Hopefully Ratio will come up with something soon.

Birthday's video taping was pretty funny. Murasaki is the chores boy. Nice is definitely slacking off. XD

Mixed feelings about Gasquet's death. The informant did warn him not to dig too deep. I might've liked him later on as a character. Too bad, he's no more..

Good episode. I like Nice's way of wording his resolve: "I can't forgive art for making himself cry." Nice one, Nice. XD

The power going uncontrolled for the monster minimum.

Nobu's character and his friend were funny when the minimum pair were talking about ex-police guy.

Am I the only one who wasn't disappointed??

I understand where you're all coming from but I think this slower episode was needed, i set up the bigger part of the conflict that's coming up.

Also I don't know who, but either Art or Nice is going to stand there with a "trigger" to pull at the end saying "I can't do it". Probably Art, he needs to come to his senses soon.
Or more like it, I want to know why he lost them in the first place.

Dude, you made my day.

I'm Disappointed over and over again,
It's nice how they manage to keep us waiting for the next episodes, where hopefully, we will discover everything. but can't they give us fucking clues?!? Art starts to really piss me off, and i don't want to be cause i used to really like him. It seems that Saikyou is the former hacker partner of Moral.. maybe? It seems as next episode Murasaki is going to lose his Minimum, and OMG why?!? Why did they had to kill poor Gasquet??!? I loved this guy so much! and the ending was soo Emotional, even tho Nice is now serious, he is kinda dumb with the way he thinks (as seen above).

Quiet a few reveals this episode, i guess i liked it..
4 or 3/5 I guess.. This show gets me confused so much!

You've pretty much summed up how I'm feeling. That Naruto x Sasuke relationship is definitely what's going on with those two.

I've been wanting AT LEAST one question answered... But I'm getting absolutely none.

It feels as though they're doing a lot of build up and making this "Saikyou" person out to be an enormous deal. I just hope whoever Saikyou is isn't disappointing when and if they do appear. Although I have a few guesses as to who it may be... I just don't want the last two episodes to be where they fill in everything, leave plot holes, and unanswered questions like quite a few 12/13 ep animes.

I liked the whole housewife Murasaki scene though lolol although I feel it was a bit of a filler. I DO NOT LIKE THE SCREAMING AT THE END THOUGH THAT WAS NOT COOL I DON'T WANT SOMETHING TO HAPPEN TO MURASAKI AS WELL.

Also... R.I.P Ossan. You were one of my fav chars and now you're gone orz.

My thoughts exactly, the story writing and directing is shit, his death was forced.

And Nice getting angry at Arc for making himself cry when an old man is dead next to him? seriously?

HAHA! true!

has anyone noticed that in the theme song haijime was trapped by that old man before, it's different now.

oh and AMEN nice. the reason why i didn't care about honey and her father was what nice aaid before the episode started. family is waaay too overrated. it's not about who you're related with at all, so don't get in a hissy fit if this fantasy you think family is supposed to be, isn't.

gasquet you blundering fool. taking on MINIMUM HOLDERS AT BY YOURSELF? yea, whatever. his death was more stupid than sad.

....i had no idea what went on with nice until later in the episode - his power was making him act weird! i wonder how....

and art's teaming up with freemum...how is he making sense to them? representing by being "religious idol"? there.s like 10 members at most in the club. like there's any need for that.

nice damage controlling. how cute.






(not.)

ok ep overall.
