Pknoctis said: my exact thought as I watched this episode.. the idea behind the beauty holder etc. was good, but it was poorly executed.Giving off a Psycho-Pass vibe, without any of the intensity. |

| New characters. I don't know if Moral gave that coat to the kid out of kindness or he just wanted to remove any evidence of his kill. |

| I get slight Psycho-pass vibes with the hero being like the villain but it misses the intensity and the execution is lackluster. This show is kinda boring. They solve the cases with very little info or with something circumstantial that they see near the end of the episode. The grandma was funny though and the bloody jacket at the end was cool. Don't see the similarities between Makishima (best villain ever) and Moral besides that they both look the same. |

| Liking the new characters. |

| New characters have cool powers. Especially the girl. The case this ep was kinda average except the beauty minimum holder part. That was a nice twist. I still think Nice pulls his deductions out of nowhere. It's always something that he notices but others don't or something he has a hunch about. I suppose that works too but it's the same very case... Not to mention things move very fast so before the situation is even fleshed out properly, they've already arrived at the conclusion. The cases are still interesting enough but execution is rather weak. |

| Honey is so hot, great choice by getting KitaEri to voice her. Pretty weak episode but the CM was great. |

The cases are still interesting enough but execution is rather weak. Nice's genius is on higher level than everyone else, like Moral, and he's a detective. So, it's safe to assume his ability to notice things others do not, and make connections quicker than others, is normal. I've also noticed, with the way the anime scenes switch around, that a lot of the detective work is done while other characters are being shown. We don't really know what methods they are using, or clues they are finding, when the other characters are being shown. I agree, however, that it would be nice(pardon the pun) to have a case extend over more than one episode. Something that would give us a chance to really see what it is that Hamatora does. With a limited number of episodes, and limited time in each episode, to tell a story some things are bound to be rushed. I can handle the cases being rushed in favor of the grand scheme playing out. Nice is some kind of genius/prodigy even among the Minimums, and we don't really know the full extent of his sound powers, so it's not too far of a stretch for him to solve everything so quickly. |
| Odds are I'm not going to find my way back to a thread after my first post, it happens on occasion but not often. So, if I say something that offends you and you feel the need to force your opinion on me because obviously everyone should have your opinion or none at all, feel free to post it in the thread that I'll probably never see again. However, if you are interested in intelligent discourse, feel free to message me. |
| Well, it wasn't bad. But one pattern I'm starting to notice here is that each episode it's like every single case they get just happens to tie in with the rest that episode... which makes it extremely predictable. I pretty much assumed from the start that Three/Honey's case and that video would all tie in with the kids and their guns. That guy stealing people's brains seems pretty damned smart though, he's actually kinda impressing me with how far he's willing to go. I normally hate most villains, because they generally have some kinds of limits, but this guy definitely doesn't hesitate for a second. |

| Honey is beautiful. Good episode. |
 |
| What was the point of this episode? Except to introduce the 2 new characters? Boring and bland, nice CM though :P |
| I approve of Honey. |
 |
| the mighty script is so handy haha *_* they're like beauty and the beast or something lol cool this series continues to get better and better :-) lovin' every ep. oh and lol nice hero commercial xD |
| haha Honey >< and that FUTURE DIARY that was pretty good, though I'm sure Art is very cautious, especially since Nice said that the villain might be like him, or at least thinks similarly. |
 |
| I'm starting to like this series although I didn't really expect much from it in the beginning. Although it has the Psycho Pass kind of vibe to it, I like how it has comedy incorporated in it. Also, I find myself liking Moral very much. This will probably be one of the series where I end up liking the villains more than the protagonists. Loved the granny and those dudes reading the manga though XD |

| Whoaw, after the stupidest thing I did (I forgot that I haven't watched ep 4 and watched ep 5 instead) I'm very happy with this episode!!! ;D The bathroom idea was so lame!! I mean...bathroom...seriously?!!! However, it was hilarious!! :D I love Ratio and Murasaki, although I'm not quite sure yet why exactly I do!!! :DD Like the "Mad Doctor" nickname!!! ♥ Poor Mirasaki -"Megane guy" I felt so sorry for him!!! Why did they make him say that?!!! TT.TT Honey was so cute kissing her Mighty Script!! :DDD Her attitude seems just a little bit annoying but she doesn't look like a bad character!!! xD Whoaw!!! Art is such an interesting character! He must have found it really strange when Moral and Nice said the same thing!!!! O_O I wonder what kind of connection these two share (Nice and Moral)???? DX< The artwork of Moral at the end was really creepy!!! It freaked me out!!! And poor kiddo that got the bloody coat!! Still I really liked the scene! It was a nice and kind gesture, yet shrouded in darkness and mystery!!! Gosh it makes you love Moral!!!! I just sounded like a total psycho!!!! @__@''' I think that one thing I absolutely love about Hamatora is the ED!!!! ^^ It's so damn good!!! o(≧▽≦)o |
| Dat Grandma tho |
| Moral is absolutely amazing, how does he only have one favourite on MAL? |
| Liking the new Addition to the team though n her skill is pretty good same for the guy as well pretty good episode in my opinion but hope it continues to be good. |
 |
| First part was funny, second part was meh.. |
| Honobono Log - best slice of life short -------------------------------------------- most kawaii loli overlord ---------------------------- Donquixote Doflamingo AMV - Control |
| able to smuggle in gun parts, little girls been kidnapped japanese airport security sucks |
| I don't get why everyone is complaining about this episode. I actually thought it was the best so far. Barion-Zara said: Not a bad ep. Moral is quite the complex character. Really finding him interesting. Lol'd at the commercial at the start XD "None have survived my operating table" XDXDXD And Murasaki being called Megane XD The way he was so not into in was hilarious haha His reaction after that was ROFL XD Face palming max XD Loving Honey and Three. Honey is friggin HOT! Dat Body *A* and three is hilarious with the reading manga part even with the guy in the hotel room XD Well as usual the case was nothing special but the characters make up a bit. The last scene when Moral gave the kid the bloody jacket was O_O Twisted as hell I'm so glad I read that post. I didn't even notice that the jacket had blood on it. Now I went back and rewatched the scene and it really did! Creepy... |
 |
| Boobs in the beginning and they're big. Still not getting a clue as to how their powers work. What is this? A cross between Bigby from Wolf Among Us, Wolverine, Beast from Beauty and the Beast and Hyorinmaru from Bleach? Rofl at those lame names: Sonic Idaten, Speed Tarou, Mad Doctor, Thunder Good Guy, Four-eyes lol The Yokohama Safety Club! Lol I'm starting to like this Three Guy, reading manga in the middle of a restaurant that seems high class  Lol, seriously how'd this old lady end up there?! xD  Now realizing Moral is voiced by Hisoka's VA and Murasaki voiced by Pouf's VA Soo much loose ends to be tied up, seriously who's the guy in the alleyway that Nice usually sees? Lol why is the victim now interested in reading Three's manga?! xD Well, okay episode. Starting to think this is all episodic and I'm losing my interest. 3/5 Mod Edit: Please use spoiler tags for large images so you don't stretch the forum layout. |

| The whole manga reading thing cracked me up and that lady in the car. Hilarious. Needs moar. |
| The commercial part was quite funny. Honey and Three was cool I guess. Looks like Moral is not a bad guy. He still have a good heart. Hot springs in the next episode. Let's see some bikini babes. |
| New characters.. a beastman and a cute girl. Hmm not bad. I love the mix of gags.. this episode seems to be made just for laughs. That stupid commercial.. a manga reading lion.. crazy driving grandma etc. I can't get enough of this lol. What's next ? But still looking forward for more action. Oh hot springs next episode woohoo ! ;) |
| Pretty solid episode in general I must say, let's see what's next though. |
 |
| nice ending. can't wait to see more of the powers and what other mysteries there are to behold. i'm liking this sorta-detective series. been a while since i've seen one (last year, kuroshitsuji). |
 |
| Lol'd at how the camera panned down the jacket Moral gave to that kid - with the music and all XD But don't know how they're the same tho... Soo enjoying this series so far. I wonder if that lady got to Hawaii or not |
| "If providing people with what they desire is a sin, then all mothers are sinners, and the world is bereft of love." ^ wow makishima-esque. Honestly feels like this: Makishima - Moral, Kougami - Nice, Ginzo - Art We finally got Doctor's name officially, and ta-da, another weird name. I'm starting to think only Hajime and Megane will have decent names here... Anyway, lmao "no one survives from my operating table". Go grandma! Yay that we got an explanation about a Minimum! I want Nice's but oh well. So Nice and Moral are "similar", eh? And for a second, I was going all "aww so Moral does have a nice side to him!!" and then turns out it was his coat with blood and nvm, nvm. |

| Was it really necessary for all the characters to have such lame and cringy names? For god's sake please spare from any more bullshit. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| I immediately liked the 2 new characters (Honey and Three). That superhero commercial scene, though. Hahahaha. Shut up, Murasaki. "Four eyes" as your superhero fits you. Hahaha jk. "None have survived my operating table!" - Ratio Dafuq, Ratio? Hahahaha! The cringe throughout that scene was worth it, maaan. Moral can suck a sack of walrus dicks even though he reminds me of Sephiroth. I fucking hate him for hurting Art. I fucking hate you. |
