Makima's powers seem really BS. I almost feel bad for those goons she seemingly squashed.

Kobeni is a surprisingly capable fighter and she definitely has a few screws loose.

Goddamn that's some Breaking Bad level shit right there I know the actual shooting happened in the previous episode but still. Also I take back what I said about Kobeni being a liability.

That man who resigned, Madoka, he figured it out. He knows he's just another pawn of Makima that is to be discarded at some point. Makima definitely has some secret personal agenda! And it obviously has something to do with Denji.

Dam this show is no joke with the killing off characters. In a short time it cut its cast down. I thought it would at least wait till another season or longer. wow those squish kills were fucking brutal. When did cry girl become bad ass. I cant fault the guy for quitting after the shit that happened.

1. How did she survive?
2. Why didn't she know the names of the ones with contracts?

2 big questions the one the closest to her are probably going to gloss over.

Disliked it!

Awkward directing and plot.
Focus on badly introduced and/or irrelevant characters.
Plus:
It is obvious to any trained writer what the creator tried to accomplish. As far as I'm concerned, he failed.

Keep pushing the boundaries of what can be well explained in order to surprise the audience and you end up on the other side of storytelling. The side of the worst hacks. Aka, it's good because it's ridiculous (so bad that it's almost good again).

This story is carried by a handful of characters. Their creation truly an inspired masterstroke. The plot, on the other hand, the work of an amateurish tryhard. Plus, most other characters are shockingly uninspired, boring, redundant.

The awful (inconsistent) power balance is another trainwreck.

Finally, Kobeni sucks and adds nothing to the story.

Schizoid anime overall.


PS. PLOTHOLES!!! PLOTHOLES! PLOTHOLES!!!

Things don't make sense. But yuck, who cares amirite? Just give us muh fanservice *soyface*

I'm disappointed with how fast this show fell down from a promising tarantino-esque dark comedy to this brainless, uninspiring edgefest. 
Many important characters die, but actually they are all alive. Wow what a surprise (yawn). Well, at least Himeno and that simp guy are done for good, although we haven't known them too much to even feel sad about them.
And what's with that terrible writing anyway? First we were shown that hybrids lose their powers and get their human appearance back when they get severely damaged/exhausted, and then Denji just gets literally killed by being cut in half, but still keeps his chainsaw face. 
I guess all author's creativity and common sense have gone to Makima's ass, sigh.
They promised me shounen Dorohedoro, but I got bamboozled. 
If anime continues, I'll still watch it till the conclusion with Gun and Makima, but after that I'll call it a day.

The fact that even after all of this I'm still attracted, hell even more attracted, to these women tells me that I am the problem, I am the drama and that I am toxicity incarnate.

Chainsaw vs Katana.

Also I like the added detail on Katana having blue blood, because he faced off against the Ghost Devil. Jesus, poor Aki having been broken completely by Himeno's death unexpectedly.

Introduction of Tendo, Kurose and Madoka (and his exit, apparently). And what the heck, Makima's still alive?!

Oh, and Kobeni's alive?! She's a terrifying hunter. But she wants to quit, such a shame.

Overall, the moment that defined this episode is Makima's sudden power up. Holy shit.

Didn't expect Kobeni to survive of all people. Wonder why she suddenly seemed capable, even strong enough to save Denji. Makima was a bit of a disappointment though, all she did was kill fodder.

A bit lazy that the Sword guy's got the same design as Denji except with swords instead of chainsaws lol. Takes away form Denji and his previously unique situation/form. Probably made him similar to start some corny rivalry going.

No surprise that Makima's alive and OP.

Another really sad, really brutal, but really really good episode. Lot of deaths (especially unexpected ones) which was really sad. But Denji vs Katana Man (?), Kobeni being a badass, Denji cutting cut in half being dead half the episode and Makima’s everything was amazing.

Very good episode, it hides quite a few interesting tricks Makima and I hope that for some reason she can't kill those who have abilities otherwise, I wouldn't understand why the hell I don't kill them haha
This time Arai was more useful (although she died but saved her partner) and Kobeni, I feel a little sorry for her, I think her contract with X demon makes them use her as a puppet or really seeing so much blood, dismemberments, deaths, etc. she's already crazy

PS: Another good ending, love you all so far

Another intense episode, right after one of the best episodes I've seen.

Himeno's ghost was able to do one last thing, and it was activating Denji's Chainsaw's. Although Denji gave his best, he wasn't a match for the Katana Man. He got sliced in half, just like that... Power is gone too, just ran to save her life. Too bad she wasn't able to save Denji at the end.

Of course Makima isn't dead, she wouldn't go down that easily. And we finally got to see one of her contracts with a Devil. WHen she asked for the prisioners with life sentences, i already knew what she was going to do, but I wasn't expecting her killing the others so easily. She seemed like Light Yagami of Death Note calling the names of his enemies and killing them one by one. This scene was so good, I swear, this anime is getting the direction of the scenes so right!

And omg, Kobeni is so OP? Like, she was able to save Denji so easily, like, wow girl, you got the skills, I wasn't expecting it! Unfortunately, the other guy was really shot dead, along with a bunch of other coworkers we just got introduced like 2 episodes ago... Kobeni was able to repay for her mistake of wanting to sacrifice Denji, by saving him from the Katana Man and the other girl.

Aimer's endings are always so good, and this one isn't different! I think it really gives a good conclusion to this ambush, and gives you the sad feelings of what really just went down these 2 last episodes.
