Haha that remix cracked me up.
Great episode, not a lot of action but enough to satisfy me.
I love this new plot, it's so tense and I want to know how it'll go on.
It seems that the next episode will be even better.
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page.

This has way better drama and characterization than the first season so far.

Could we get a little less camera panning in the next episode? Felt like having motion sickness...

I wonder what will R do, okay episode 3/5.

So we finally saw why Koko acts the way she does and why she gets little afraid when called a dragon or monster herself. It seems that the adoption of that personality is driving her to madness since if you wear a mask long enough then it becomes your face.

Indeed. This episode was one of the best including all first seasons episode. Lets hope that the battles are better than the first season too.

Koko's standardizing their weapons, I can see the logistical and munitions advantage but I wanted to see more variety of guns they'll be able to wield. :(


Yeah but i liked that element along with them showing practicing on Koko saving tactics cause it shows some more realistic aspects. It is a great benefit of having the same weapons not only on logistical matters but in battle too because if you are running out of ammo end the guy next to you has plenty he can help you out. Or if the guy next to you is dead you can take his ammo and keep shooting.

It's a little bit of a stretch for the author to have Hex try to waste Koko. A real agent would not make such decision on her own without approval from her boss.

Also, I wonder why some countries are named by alphabet (e.g. T) whilst others by real name (e.g. Czech Republic) in this anime.

Interesting. Hex and Koko's dream makes me curious. Especially Koko's attitude. She looks like she is crying. Haven't see her do that before. If that was true when they battle, then that will affect me alot.
So R will choose what side will he go on.Wow this is getting heated right now.
Preview song was weird.Can't wait until the next episode.
Hex back story was pretty good!

Didn't think Hex and Koko would clash so soon . . . Hoping that Jonah doesn't die. Though highly doubt he will.

it isint hard to figure what to attack to get to koko. Her bodyguards. Shes treats them like family so figure it would hurt her to start axing them. So hex use to be normal then terroriest killing her husband screwed her head. seeing koko scared out her mind is different and it looks like we see why she always smiles no matter what. Seems odd they are soly aiming for the kid. I mean its shown she would hurt if she lost any of her bodyguards.

If that Hex witch wants to kill terrorists that badly, she should start with herself.

In any case, shit is about to go down.

DANG, this was a great episode! Loved the politics and the background for Saw, R, and even Koko and Hex. Making everyone have the same rounds makes a lot of sense. I actually went shooting for the first time recently and guns are NOT easy to handle ... just goes to show that everyone really is a "pro" :P The conversation between Koko and R was really interesting, so much tension for me watching at least since we know he's a spy. Not to mention this makes him ask Saw about Hex and ... welp. They're targeting Jonah and I bet stuff is gonna go down soon. Also loved the preview remix! XD

Great episode and I have to say, this season of Jormungand is definitely better for its actual continuous storyline rather than the mini-arcs approach that the first season had, although that serves more as a tool to introduce different characters and world build a bit which I was cool with. The episode reeks of subtle development, deception and red flags for the future, especially surrounding the interesting backstory and potential future of R's role in the narrative. Hex too as well.

For the lighthearted portion though, Koko saying "Say hello to your new little friend' while showcasing the crew's new weapons in the dub was awesome and a nice touch too. I don't know how it is in the subbed version, but I like how the dub version adds subtle references or humor surrounding big time action media from the past and makes it feel more Western in a way too. Appreciate the Scarface reference from the show, but I also think it would have been cheesier and more awesome if that was used when the crew is in actual combat and got the new weapons to take them out.

Damn R is put in a tough spot here. What is he going to do?

George magnificently manipulated Hex in such a way that left me with in awe, he deserves to
be called "The Puppeteer" a hundred times over, also Hex gone some bad shit on her career
no wonder she turned out broken.

also R replied to Koko with similar line that Echo said before dying, I smell some foreshadowing
that he is gonna struggle a lot to betray Koko.

I wonder at one point Koko decided to hide her personality. In the flashback she was a entirely different person. Or maybe it was at that point and echos death stuck with her.

But R has no clear opinion on Koko, has a family, spent time with the whole crew including Jonah, and is being kept in the dark kinda by bookman. He ain't gonna give Jonah up or at least maybe at first and change his mind.

I wish Koko kept her schoolgirl attire from the past. She's sexy in it.
CIA's menu looks delicious!
As long as Hex doesn't kill Koko, Hex can do whatever she wants to piss her off.
Is R afraid that his cover will be blown once Jonas is killed, or does he like the kid so much he doesn't want him to die?
