| I will lol hard if next week opens with the old lady entre being super powerful in direct combat. I did not understand a word of Jennifer's engrish, made me wish I had subs for that. I really pitied the econ prof when he said his wife left him. The way they said it so matter-of-fact-like and out of nowhere just made me feel sad. |
| I'd feed an asset like that cup noodles too :P |

 |
| the battles are interesting so more was nice, more impact if you understand the importance of the characters battling though. Kimimaro got kinda cocky and lost and realized even small losses can hurt. he has to prove himself to the guild which seems a necessary evil. |
 |
| i like Mikuni's actions so far, but maybe in later episodes Kimimaro will find a way to destroy the Financial District completely the Final District seems a good thing as portrait in this episode but actually Mikuni just made the whole Financial District and midas money and deals into positive things for the Japanese economy the Financial District is a double edge sword it can either be too much rewarding or too much risky |

| Random battles are totally horrible for me, i don't get while people like it so much. There are some good things in this series but it's definetily not the battles. Though i still hope that in the conclusion there will be something more substantial. |

It's a mix of pokemon/stocks/casino elements.Random battles are totally horrible for me, i don't get while people like it so much.

Yumekichi11 said: The first one was WTF @ the big gun as follows,  That was hawt. And lol @ the scene where Mashu opens her mouth wide. And waaattt. It's confirmed for 11 episodes only? I keep seeing 26 episodes at the end credits with noitaminA. Ah well, I was kinda hoping that it won't be drawn out anyway. This was a pretty interesting episode and I'm sensing Yoga and Mikuni having different ideals/plans regarding the Midas money and maybe even Yoga breaking away from the guild in the future. |

| good ep Couple of thoughts 1. That girl that Kimimaro likes is going to not be able to go to the school or whatever it is she got accepted to when he wins the next battle. The way I figure this is that she is suppposed to be Kimi(maro)'s "future". So the more he wins the closer she will be to him, the more he loses the less time she will be with him 2. There is no way Mikuni is a straight up good guy(unless point #5 see below), eventhough right now I kinda like him. I just cannot trust the guy who seems ultra cool and does the dirty work for good type thing. Also he and Kimi were fighting in the OP. IDK though that could be a troll or they just werent thinking about what they were doing/ going to do. 3. Mikuni definately has some sort of ulterior motive or connection when it comes to Kimi (unless piont #5, see below). Something like he killed his dad or something like that. Or he believes that Kimi will be able to help him do something that is bad in the district (which could turn Kimi all emo cause "Mikuni was like a father to me and he betrayed me" BS. That BETTER not happen or its ruining the show 4. Midas money=bad I believe they mentioned how the suicides and the like have been increasing in the country, this together with the fact that Mikuni's Midas Money has begun to support the country prob means that the more Mikuni invests then the worse the country will get. #5. Mikuni will die. If hes not going to end up being a bad guy he is dying somewhere in the next 3 episodes. But IDK its 3AM and im prob overanylyzing. Whatever...... |

| Although a lot of people have admitted that the drawing quality of this show is kind of low, the design of the monsters and the battle scenes in this episode were too childish and embarrassing. (The design of the humanoids was fine.) The director, animation directors (Korean?) and designers of the monsters should be blamed. I cannot understand producers' intention for the show. (Excuse me for my negative opinion but...) |
| 11 episodes only? D: |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| great ep Mashu ~ <3 |
 |
| Inb4 the professor hangs himself. |
| People who watch this anime expecting high budget animation and long battles should just drop it and watch a real shonen battle instead. |
| loved this episode mashu is so cute when she want to try cup noodle xD... I wonder what will happen when midas money dominate the real world/reality |

| so he join Guild now |

| This is shaping up to be a great anime, perhaps even better than Deadman Wonderland and Ao no Exorcist. Still, though makes me wonder how this is gonna end. The way it keeps it getting darker i wouldn't be surprised if it ends with Mikune going bakrupt and *egasp* committing suicide. btw I have a feeling the teacher is going to do something crazy... |

| this anime is about risk/reward trade-off the greater the reward the greater the risk (and vice versa) the lower the reward the lower the risk (and vice versa) http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/risk-reward-tradeoff.html and because of this risk/reward trade-off they have to control the game/deals or their self in order to minimize the risks/dangers and they do that by winning games with few margin of defeat or win im curious how Kimimaro will break this cycle if he will ever break it later on |
j0x said: Nice one! It is indeed that but the thing is that hell cares for any of that. It is curious more of what the humans will do about it. If there is shit like people losing their jobs, it's easier for Masakaki to recruit people. I think there are conditions for the one who is chosen to partake in the game. There must be something to be chosen in to enter the financial district.this anime is about risk/reward trade-off the greater the reward the greater the risk (and vice versa) the lower the reward the lower the risk (and vice versa) http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/risk-reward-tradeoff.html and because of this risk/reward trade-off they have to control the game/deals or their self in order to minimize the risks/dangers and they do that by winning games with few margin of defeat or win. I'm curious how Kimimaro will break this cycle if he will ever break it later on I like you analyzing so I will get into it too. stevethapirate said: You mean Hanabi? She does have the guy she goes out with so the first thing that needs to be done is for Kimimaro to beat him big time! So he loses everything. I wonder if it shall happen? We shall see if Kimimaro's action to affect her. If so then I will agree with you on this.good ep Couple of thoughts 1.

Right now I am more curious if Mikuni is related to Kimimaro's father in some way and it is not revealed yet. stevethapirate said: It may not if Mikuni plays his cards right, thus why he wants all control of the financial district because he knows Midas money has infested the real world and like he mentions to break all this would plunge humanity into chaos. It's funny because so people IRL are preventing that from happening but with nano it can. It is far too late to stop nano from being further developed. In fact the same can be said about electrical cars and the oil companies conspiracy to shut down the creators to gain more profit in cars only using their gas. Stuff like that is interesting to relate to this anime.4.

| 4 out of 5: Liked it |
| Looks like the professor is about to lose it soon. |
| nice :) |
| 4 / 5 - I like the battles actually, not so much in this episode, but in the previous episodes they were done nicely, I thought. I'm mostly watching for the characters and the setting now, the whole plot has sort of diminished things for me. I'm pretty sure I understand the whole risk/reward-"let's not affect reality" thing, but I don't see where it could possibly go ... unless Mikuni really isn't as righteous as he seems. |
| Felt sorry for the teacher in this one. ; A ; But, I've been wondering what the guy with the glasses from the guild does? o__o" |
 |
| Q: "I don't need it." *munches on a bill* So cute~ Kimi and Mashu seem to be growing closer, regardless of in what way. |
| the more and more i see those deals, the more i think there should be a game made based on this |
 |
| I think that that girl not obtaining any misfortune is going to be the biggest misfortune for Kimimaro... maybe I'm just trying to hard to read into things. Either way, it was an extremely entertaining episode Yay for both English and Engrish at the end. |

| Mashu FTW. She is so cute! In other news I am really looking forward to where they are going with this anime.I wonder how this anime is going to end? Is Kimimaro going to destroy the district at the cost of ruining peoples life's or is he going to do something else? |
| Not Found (aka 404) You're looking for something that does not, has not, will not, or must not exist ... ... but you're always welcome to search for it. |
| I don't understand why people like this .___.' It's the worst anime this season. Can anyone tell me WHY they are dueling about money? And wtf are these assets :s How did they come to the world?? etc. What will happen to the food that Mashu ate? lol This is to unrealistic, childish and the story lacks depth, or have I missed something? :( |
| Interesting episode. So I guess "direct" means you're attacking yourself while flations are used for the Assets? Wow, so even losing a bit can affect you IRL ... the old guy's company went bankrupt, but Mikuni bought them out. What's he doing this all for, anyway? The "guild" is to control the effect of Deals IRL? Interesting ... we'll see what Yoga does then I suppose :P |
| Pretty action packed episode! Kind of a surprise considering we don't see too much of it. Looking forward to the next! |

| Lovable episode! <3 I've seen a lot of people getting advertise in it though :O By the way .. the ending...?????? He actually joined Mikuni's guild? lol I was actually expecting for him to build his own guild ='/ But still , great :D |

| Mikuni is awesome. He is pretty much saving the world economy as best as he can. The battles aren't bad either for something that has a technical type of story. |
| ^^ |
| So the Midas Money flow into our world can't be stopped safely, just as I thought. But I still can't see where is the plot going to. It's episode 5 and the story is not moving at all. Hope this'll start changing soon. |
  |
| This show is so bad, why do I keep watching? It's Masyu, isn't it? Yeah, it's Masyu. |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| Something's not sitting right with me about this whole episode! Mikuni isn't letting on about everything. I think he's planning and scheming and it's not going to benefit anyone but him. The best thing about this show is the attacks during the fights. Reminds me of Persona. |
Segmented said: Yumekichi11 said: Iilia said: Still does not change the fact that he was mean to her at first.But he brought her some afterwards, just as he said he would. ;) Really? It seemed more like one of those awkward romantic moments. Like he was embarrassed to see such a close up of her lips through the Credit Card or something. Might have just been me though. no i was feeling that too. also can u put stuff through the card? is there a scale or somthing if it were to go inside or will the food be giant cuz she's tiny in the card. |
     |
| LOL The "You're in my way" b*tchslap in the beginning made my day. This episode was pretty humorous, I liked it. I also think it's great that Yoga joined the guild. Not much more to say about this episode though.. |
| Cute Kimimaro & Msyu moment~ More battles in this episode, which is the best part in C. Kimimaro's first lost affect his future a lot, although he lost only a little. The professor's future getting worse, I think he maybe end up committing suicide in later episodes. And why did Q eats Midas money? But she's so cute doing it~ |
 |
| Pfffft, Yoga what the hell. You gotten hold of some inside information and what did you do with it? Nothing. If it was me, I would have abused the shit out of it and buy at a low price tons of shares in the old man's falling company knowing that Mikuni's going to takeover it. |
