<strong>THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.</strong><br />----------------------------------------
<br /><br />Start of another new mission, this time to find a doll (new loli!). Miraculous how there's so many coincidences. Hei coincidentally makes friends with someone in the place he was spying on. That someone coincidentally gets entrusted with the doll... you get the drift.

Not too shabby of an episode :/

Totally didn't know the subbed torrent was out.

*Eagerly goes to download*

Edit: Okay, so finally got to watching this episode. Once again, I'm deeply intrigued with what is going to happen next with the doll and the younger brother, who definitely appears conflicted in what he should do. I wonder if they'll connect any of this to Amber.

For the record, I didn't realize how hot Misaki was until this episode. Wow. ^^

Damn this is one good episode.
I'm really into it but regarding what had happend in the past with that woman at the begining I feel that he will betray his new friend.
Hope to see amber again, so cute but sad..after hearing the story.

This episode killed me. I mean comon! We just started onto the main story line and then we get off track again. Hei needs to fry the annoying guys ass, turn the girl over to whoever he is supposed too, and then he can go on with the regular storyline un-impeded.

She's not exactly loli though.

But anyway, was an interesting episode. Next one is gonna be fun. It's always amusing to see the contrast between Hei and Li ^^. Misaki looks great in every situation, that casual clothing she wore at home was very nice.

Ditto. The episode wasn't bad per se but I was really hoping to see some more Amber. Or at least some more insight to what happened in South America and what their plans are.

It's kinda sad how people even despised this episode for going "off track" when they are providing us with more insight on Hei's character. So you'd rather this anime was just a simple revenge drive without developing Hei as a character? Tsk, I bet if they didn't develop Hei at all, everyone would be up in arms about how Hei is just a flat one-dimensional character with no personality.

I liked it. It was sort of slice of life for most of the episode. There's probably going to be a huge action scene next episode, so i can't wait for that.

Anyone feel sorry for the doll? (Even though it's just a doll). Did they ever explain how a doll like her functions?...maybe I missed it.

Misaki showed her attractive side in this episode. I hope she ends up helping Hei.

Most of this episode was too full of cheerfulness for me... or must I say fake cheerfulness? At least when it comes down to Li Sheng Shun.
I feel a bit sadistic pleasure just from the thoughts about how will this mafia boy get betrayed by Hei. Ku-ku-ku...

Great episode, this arc is very interesting.
I hope Hei won't kill that guy, he acts like a gangster but he's in big shit and he knows that, and he is a nice guy but the people who he works with are not.
Really looking forward to the next episode.

What's so important about that doll? She doesn't seem to react to anything at all. Anyway, it was very convenient for Hei that she was brought to him.

funny episode and I wonder what this dolls part is we will see in the next episode. also funny to the the reason why the people live in the same apartment.

Hei was pretty awesome in the beginning, dodging those attacks while pretending to be clumsy. Seriously, which acting school did he go to? :P And how perfect is it for him that he didn't actually have to look for the doll, and instead was unintentionally brought to him? I have a feeling that gangster guy is going to die...

Damn, Hei's acting skill is flawless, as usual. xD

The gangster guy and the doll seemed to be star-crossed.

I just love how Hei can act so friendly and peaceful with those cold fish eyes. An interesting episode with some good comedy relief from the rest of the series. And jeez, Misaki needs to stop wearing lipstick she looks infinitely better without it.

I have to say this is one of my least favorite episodes so far for my first watch. I don't like the "too many coincidences" of this plot, even if it has a good premise. Also, I'd never entrust something like that to my idiot brother..

Still 4/5 though. The title amuses me.

I don't like the change of pace between this episode and the last one. Unless the doll results to be incredibly important, this feel like filler.

Huang realised that Hei had deliberately electrocuted him in a way as to not kill him. Realising this, Huang was able to reconcile with Hei because Hei is too big of an asset to The Syndicate to just abandon.
