Loved that conversation between Revy and Rock in the darkness. She sure has the attitude and skills to make it through in this cruel world.

5/5.

Revy is spot on in this episode. Her speech about medals is quite true.
Next episode won't be so good between Rock and Revy.

very surprising Revy is chinese, im guessing she's half chinese and russian since in the last episode she was called a dangerous russian.


Nah the "dangerous Russian" they referred to is the woman with the facial scarring who gives them the missions.

It seems like I was the only person here who still had a problem with Revy taking those medals even after her bullshit speech.


I actually agreed with her speech, and the snippets of her past show that it is perfectly reasonable for her to loot from the dead. I mean if you grew up, being reduced to how much money you have it's normal to value money above everyting else and to see objects not for their possible ideological/emotional value but simply in terms of how much money they are worth.

I don't agree with what Revy said and I don't think Rock agrees either. But I believe it's a normal outcome of Revy's past and current lifestyle to think like that. She didn't have the same opportunities like others and she didn't have the privilege to have higher morals. When you fight to survive you awake your animal instincts. I think that's what Rock also realised and stoped talking (besides Revy threatening to kill him :))

Fuck you guys seriously, it's like every anime should be non-stop action to please you. I've seen this all around this fucking site and it's starting to tick me off.

What else is this show good for? The dialogue and the characters are boring. I'm just watching it for the mindless action. Texhnolyze and Bakemonogatari are in my favorites, I don't think every anime should be non-stop action. This one just has nothing else going for it. Dumbass.

Weakest episode yet. This and the last one. Disappointing.

I quite liked Revy's speech how once things loose value, they're just things. But i don't agree how she thinks money is everything, but obviously her values are sculptured by her past so i guess that's why she's like that. I also thought it was bullshit how her and Rock survived getting fired at in the water, they should've been at least shot once i mean come on. 8.2/10.

I get revys past and all. Though im confused when shes basically like dont look down at me with the views of the ritch fat people and so forth when it wasint those peoples opinions it was rocks and I actually agree with rocks speech more and he wasint like "accept this and next time you speak your mind fuck you and I might kill you" witch is what basically revy did and kinda came off a bit annoying on her part. Again I get why she feels that way but you dont have to be a dick about it.

I really liked this episode. Delved into Revy's past and her way of thinking. Going by her past, I can understand why she values money so much.

I also really like how Rock bringing morality into the story is basically a conflict to the Lagoon Company's lifestyle which is that of a pirate.

Even if they didnt die from lack of oxygen, they had no food. And that sub was down there for 50 years. How was it not filled up with water? Surely at some point the pressure would have collapsed the hatch.

Now I remember what the ED reminds me of, "Monster"
Anyway was an alright episode, even if there was no air I doubt a sub could still be in that shape after over 50 years.

Also didnt expect Revy to be Chinese.

I think the fact why they showed the gun fight between the Nazi soldiers, would imply that they all died by killing themselves. So this kind of supports the argument why they were able to breathe. Anyways, it's just a slight detail, the major turning point will take place in the next episode.

And, Chinese Revyy.

Yeah, Revy basically told Rock not to piss her off with his opinions anymore or she'll put lead in him. Surely she doesn't have to listen to him, but her reaction and the way how Rock obediently agreed was kind of... weak. I get it, she had a rotten childhood, but that doesn't make her more right than others.

Also kind of ridiculous how they didn't get hit a single time when they got sprayed by machine guns while in the water. Plot armor much?

Didn't know Revy was chinese. One of the few problems with anime, you can never tell nationality easily.

Rocks innocence/ moraity and Revys 'psychoness' are too cliche but if you think about the different lives theyve led then it makes sense

Yes, especially when he's complaining about something (which is almost everytime...). He's gotta be a little bit more useful...
Lost my fff mind when he dropped the painting. I hate the cliché 'butter hands' scenes in animes or movies, can't think of anything more annoying than that...

Please don't let the protagonist's goody two shoes moral conflicts constantly slow the plot and hinder the other characters for the rest of the show. I'm so tired of characters like him.

There is 2 incoherence in this episode :

- Oxygen
- 1959 Nazi Medal.

- Oxygen : the crew die of lack of oxygen and not in a gun fight. We can see a guy in his bed, just for exemple.
- 1959 Nazi medal : Revy show a medal to Rock and talk about souvenirs and other things. There is a date in this medal : 1959. It's impossible. All the story was in 1945 like they say during all the episode !

So I think this episode was not create seriously. It's amateurism.
