So they have to do all those things one more time?

Wow. Hoozuki you really are a demon.

Nice that Cerberus made an appearance, in this episode. Also that wasn't dirtballs.

LOL Hoozuki really is ruthless. Also, "you have to be tougher than a planaria". That made me laugh for some reason. Poor participants, it was JUST a rehearsal....not to mention, they have to practice again!! Too funny XD

First part was good, but the second part was awesome, specially in the context of the almost-here olympic games.

The cow-head chasing Hakutaku reminds me of Sanji in One Piece.

Hoozuki really is such a dick, lol I love it. This just proves that I would enjoy hell a lot.

I lol'd at the "dirt balls" being the dung beetle/scarab... took me a second to realize, but it was pretty funny when I did.

The cow-head and horse-head scene was full of lol. The cow-head chasing after Hakutaku was hilarious.

The second half was not too bad, I really like the sport festival events.

Dat whiplash.
Godfather reference, check.
The hills columns have eyes.
Falcon Punch! +1
Gentle nature, he says.
Heaven on hell lol.
Ginger and Fred is an obscure one, but this show already has a wide range of reference material.
Nasubi channeling his inner Ippo.
Don't quit your day job, Cerberus.
Not really, but that's one for Wizard of Oz, I guess.
Lol the Can Can is the perfect theme music for an exorcist foot race.
A wild Anubis appears!
Random coincidence, but you can rearrange the letters of Anubis to spell Nasubi.
BE TOUGHER THAN SOMETHING THAT MAY NEVER DIE.
That sure was elaborate and now I know what these contraptions are called in Japan.
Lol that was all a rehearsal?

I lost it at the exorcist foot race.

I first thought it would take a good knowledge of Japanese culture to enjoy this but I'm glad it didn't turn out that way. This is probably my favorite of the season, along with Zvezda.

Hozuki and Hakutaku have more in common than they realize. If they were dressed the exact same way, we probably wouldn't be able to tell them apart.

Those sadistic games were just a rehearsal? I'd hate to see what the real deal is.

Cow-head and Horse-head FTW!!

Hilarious episode.

Cow-head and Horse-head XD

LOL the bazooka instead of a starting pistol. Whole thing was JUST a rehearsal, priceless!
Hyuga Junpei: “Yeah… I’m confident… Because my teammates will help me out! I can shoot confidently.. because it will be okay even if I miss!”

Every Episode I love this show even more... The beetle part was surprisingly funny (I am from Egypt, but it still made me laugh)

but the bazooka took the cake for me.

I almost felt sorry for Hakutaku. Hozuki is always so wonderful, certainly the last person I'd like to be enemies with. Although judging by the second part I can't say I really want to know him in person at all either. But I did love the exorcist foot race. xD;;

Shiro FTW.
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

Dat Hajime no Ippo - dempsey roll reference!
Also Sakigake!! Otoko-juku reference!! - "Did they steal ideas from Men's Private School or what?!"

Last episode had a Hokuto no Ken reference, I love how they are using old and manly manga titles :D
I wouldn't be surprised to see a Saint Seiya or a Jojo reference in future episodes.

Episode that finds much favor in my first part, already the end, it was not so much fun being a little more sophisticated comedy implementation.
Very beautiful designs and good animations.

The Gatekeepers of Hell were really pushy but that thought about Hozuki being really similar to Hakutaku was made even more apparent here. The most ideal seductive traits in a woman being a cow's made me chuckle guiltily a lot.

Those games Hozuki came up of really are hellish. It had become more like a game of survival than one of friendly mind-clearing company games.
