| All Men Must Die! so the only reason why Richard was introduced is so we can see how Johan can fuck with his victims. What a brilliant mf! Still don't understand why that dude with the glasses put a pen into his ear but whatever |
| Since Johan said " Will you be able to see your daughter " I said RIP Richard san you have met the grim reaper |
| But I wanted to see him reunite with his daughter :( |
 |
| Johan is very interesting to watch really liked those last episodes, too bad the officer died,also this anime brings weird feelings into the table that i do not understand |
 |
| Shout out that Johan had the same birthday as I . (February 9th) Also why did that serial killer kill himself after seeing Johan's photo? To keep himself from snitching or just the pure terror Johan invoked |
| This little snippet from Episode 29: Dr. Gillen is interviewing the murderer Peter Jurgens. He shows Peter a picture of Johan and Peter says that he does not know him, and then he asks him for a pen. He takes the pen and begins shading around the face of the man in the picture. He tells Dr. Gillen that on the second day of the murder, he had gone to the park; he was telling himself that he wanted to stop, and then he saw the man surrounded by children there. Peter then repeats the words "You should come too" over and over again while some ominous little tune plays and the camera does a close up on his expressionless face. He then takes the pen and plunges it into his right ear. Blood squirts out and he falls over dead. I wonder why Peter Jurgens shades Johan's hair and why did he kill himself after that. |

| F*ck as soon as Johan picked that bottle I knew things would get risky by either him killing him and then making it look like he was drunk but in this case, he dismantled him verbally and make Richard do the deed himself(?) man I liked the private investigator yes, he was flawed but that is precisely why I liked him he was trying to amend for his sins it is a shame that his daughter would never see him alive again… Johan is truly a Monster! |
 |
| Poor detective :( Well I guess his death flag can't be more obvious I guess next is the doctors That was a creepy episode, I truly fear Johan.. Glad he's not a real life person |
"Signature removed"   |
| I was on the edge of my seat earlier while watching this episode. I felt angry towards Johan Liebert, he's really a pure devil. Mr. Richard, even though he already knew almost about Johan's identity, he still cannot escape death. Johan killed him. I pity Mr. Richard so much because he didn't see his daughter before he died. To Johan, he acts like innocent but I don't like his character. |

| I'm at the point of assuming where anyone who has some semblance of happiness in their lives is going to die. Poor guy could have atleast seen his daughter :( |
| Damn, that end. RIP Richard. It *is* quite weird that he followed Johan though. |
| JOhan might be good at manipulating, but everything shown so far isnt make him interesting enough to be called an "aweeesome villian". so far, best character is dr tenma. good epiosde, though. |
| :v |
| Johan was brilliant. That detective sure fucked up. Still not a great episode. Detective found out all the loopholes, but was an idiot for following Johan to a secluded place. Unless if he(Richard) was planning to rape him(Johan), which would directly violate UN human rights. It is possible that the detective killed himself over the guilt, but COME ON. SO CLICHE. I would blame the detective for not putting Johan in jail. Looks like the DDLC x Monster Meme turned out to be true. 2 people already died of their own volition by Johan's words. And that pen stabbing scene. Do detectives and shrinks lose their minds as the series progresses? Now, if you will excuse me, I will have a drink. Care to join me? |
 Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate. I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death. |
| R.I.P Richard. I think after Johan experienced the 511 Kinderheim incident he became less tolerant for injustice made to kids. |
 |
| Welp the death flag was activated ever since he started talking about possibly meeting his daughter Johan really fucked him up huh. I think that the emotional manipulation was pretty intense but he shoul have kept in mind the techniques Johan employs |
| Just wow.......... |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| DAMN BRUH, WTF!!!! |
 |
| Maaan, given the era this is from I could tell his death was coming. All the typical tropes were there to foreshadow his eminent doom. It really sucks tho. I really liked his character and started to emphasize with him. I'm not sure how this arc will wrap up. I'm pretty sure Tenma was on his way to this town right before this arc started, so I'm wondering if he will join in soon. |
| You must have a mind of steel to face Johan. His smirk when he handed the liquor bottle to Richards... Man, was savouring the win. Poor Richard. |
 |
| Richard should just deny everything that Johan said and if necessary shoot him. Though I think, there's still some supernatural things going around here. Like a photo of Johan makes someone kill him/herself. |
| He who smiles in a crisis has found someone to blame. |
| WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW.. just WOW that was brilliant |
| Damn Johan is badass. |
| Damn I love this anime so much! Poor Richard man, the dude was just getting his life back together |

| It's been a while since I've watched it, but why did Jurgens kill himself? Was it hypnosis and a picture of Johan would trigger it? Does that mean, Johan is a mentalist too? Anyway, great episode overall, but like many have pointed it out, there are weak spots here and there, not just in this episode but in some other before it. It's too convenient at times how some characters suddenly react unreasonable or stupid or how Johan always is one step ahead. At first watch I didn't notice these things, but now, many years and many animes later, I do notice them. Still, one of the best anime, if not perfect. |

| People seem to be labeling this as Richard spontaneously becoming dumber for the sake of making Johan look smart. Keep in mind that Richard was considered ill and experienced mental blocks whenever he was reminded of the guilt he felt from shooting that kid. Johan forced that feeling back into him before they left the bar and headed for the roof. |
| Johan's a master of words! Just incredible stuff from him! |
| Though it was expected that Johan will kill Richard, I’m still shocked with it. Finally we see more of how Johan mess with people’s mind and conscience. He’s really terrifying. |

Keep in mind that Richard was considered ill and experienced mental blocks whenever he was reminded of the guilt he felt from shooting that kid. Johan forced that feeling back into him before they left the bar and headed for the roof. I agree with this. He’s unstable and people who are suffering or suffered from abuse in alcohol or drugs are vulnerable. The fact that Johan successfully use Richard’s guilt feelings prove that Richard is still not mentally healthy. |
| though richard supposed to be smart he done pretty stupid things, but it was excepted that johan would take him out. the only lead now is only in the hand of his dr. |
| BRUH EVERYTIME WE GET TO KNOW A CHARACTER THEY FRICKIN DIE!! |
| Duuuuude Johan is so manipulative sooo close. |
 |
| Richard died by drinking alcohol that isn't suited to him, I can see why he died that way. |
| Damn. At first I was dumbfounded at why someone like Richard would follow Johan at all. But Johan really hooked him in with the execution talk, deep down Richard just had to hear more. This was sad, I was really rooting for him too. |
 |
| Johan really came back and did his thing Wonder how Richard died after |
 |
| This is truly a masterpiece. I am glad I am watching this show. |
| damn, Johan's really good at manipulating people's minds. I knew Michael is in trouble by the time Johan knock on his door. Too bad he didn't get the chance to meet her daughter |
| Johan was the mvp this episode. I can't say I'm surprised for what he did though |
