The police were so stupid that even Tenma came to the same conclusion as Lunge considering that he's a doctor, not a detective. Overall the episode was excellent.

I wasn't expecting lunge (/runge?) to get some cool moments this episode. But for a second, I thought he was actually gonna die but it's not super surprising that he didn't.

So Lunge was suspecting Tenma and Johan are one but I mean there's no way that Tenma is also Johan right?

I don't know why I didn't realise this earlier but detective Lunge is quite the monster himself. If only he wasn't so fixated on Tenma being the culprit and actually investigated Johan, although difficult with all evidence of his existence erased, they would've been much further in the case.

For being an agent, this Lunge dude is astonishingly obtuse. He has taken note of every agonizing detail, other than....the entirety of Tenma's motivation lmao

Yeah, I thought this episode. Who knows... there might be a twist later on.

At this point, Lunge already should know Johan is real. I mean, the criminal psychologist from a couple episodes ago has all the evidence that confirms Johan's existence; there is also Johan's patient record when he was admitted at the hospital as a kid; the deal with General Wolf's whole family being tracked and killed by a person named "Johan"; etc.
Don't get me wrong, I really like Lunge's character but come on, give me some consistency here.

Any decent detective can look for Johan and find traces of his existance. But Runge is so obsessed with the 'feeling' that he did not even bothered to.. If he was a great detective, he would see the innocence of Dr. Tenma just like the retired Police..

I thought Runge would be a smart detective but he coudn't even know that Tenma is innocent although that's obvious, he's only obsessed with Tenma and I don't think he really cares whether Tenma is the murderer or not.

Welp, I made the promise 2 episodes ago that I'd drop this if nothing happened between then and now. Fortunately, something did, in fact, happen this episode, but goddamn if it wasn't something that should have transpired ~10 episodes ago.

I've never seen Lunge as being anything other than crooked, so I haven't had the same falling out with his character that many of the other people in this discussion thread have had. Keep in mind that there's been a pretty massive timeskip between the murder of the board of directors and where the story is currently, so I always thought Lunge's obsession with solving the case was driven by his desire to convict the most immediate suspect for the sake of closing it. It was pretty obvious that the conversation he wanted to have with Tenma this episode was just as loaded as the ones he had with Ziebel.

Regardless, I'm relegating this to permanent shelved territory for the time being. I may come back some time in the future because I don't think there's anything here that stands out as being bad - it's just that so much of it is middling and agonisingly meandering. I wanted Johan this episode, not Cringege

Lunge's kind of a dolt. All of his theories are wrong, and honestly they don't even make sense from a criminal psychology POV. I expected more from that creep.

But at the same time, what IF he saved him just to clear his name? There are so many what if scenarios. Hes an accomplished detective so hes probably already sold on his own stupid theory.

That being said, what a freaking retard he is!
bruh he literally thinks tenma has two personalities - johant the serial killer and tenma the nice doctor.....

Finally. The showdown between Tenma and Lunge. That was great.
But I think it would have been better for Tenma to let Lunge die.
Now the hunt of Tenma continues…

Just wanted to comment saying the Japanese VA for one of the reporters at the very beginning of this episode sounds just like voice for Kenpachi in Bleach lol.

Edit: It is him lmao god that voice is so recognizable

Lunge is getting on my nerves. If you're as smart as you say you are, you will notice by now that Tenma isn't the one committing the crimes. Tenma has an alibi for most of the crimes. And why would a serial killer bother to save you—what's not clicking lunge?

oh my gosh, ending song revealed!!

It's like a filler, but I love the detective's character, so I think it wasn't the bad episode, however it's a little bit unnecessary...

This is such a tense episode, when it comes to sheer intellect, Tenma, Johan, and Lunge are worlds apart when compared to the other wannabe genius.

It's for that reason that whenever Johan or Lunge got screen time, the episode is almost guaranteed to be nuts. Such as this ep, Lunge is so obsessed over catching Tenma, he does not care whether Tenma is the killer, he couldn't care less about the truth about the killer, and he's dead set on capturing Tenma at all costs, enough for him to neglect his own family, career, and health.

This episode made me question both Tenma's and Lunge's credibility in terms of their respective opinions of what has unfolded. Tenma, ofc points to Johan's alternate personality as the real culprit of all the killings, whereas Lunge is persistent in believing that the 'Johan' Tenma is talking about is really just himself. Personally, since we've been with Tenma since the beginning, I'd believe Tenma over Lunger but damn the obsessed detective got several somewhat curious hypotheses. 

The answer lays ahead in the future eps...
