Wow. Yet another episode of a show where a character cuts his/her hair to "prove" that they have changed. This is like the 5th person to do this this year in the anime I've seen. Such a boring and hackneyed episode that didn't do anything to progress the story.

say do you ever compliment an episode?
not that this one was exceptional good, but i've never read anything positive from you...
i mean it's your opinion, I'm just curious

btw: she cut her hair in the manga too and that one's older than just a year. so it's not like they copied it from other anime or something.

well i liked this ep - nothing special. makie is one of my favorite characters in the manga though so it's a nice episode for me.

I do compliment...when it's good. A lot of my Kannagi, Xam'd, Naruto Shippuden (recently), Michiko to Hatchin, Nodame Paris, Sunred, Toradora (recently), and the last episode of One Outs was positive. I just think its ridiculous to see the same thing in such different shows.

The anime's potential doesn't reach anywhere near the manga, but this episode was decent. Nice to see Makie get her due, although I wonder how this will end with only 5 episodes left.

I hate it when girls cut off their pretty long hair D:

But Makie is definitely my favorite character. I guess I won't drop this now

Brilliant episode. Even if the main plot doesn't develop that much, it's a great introduction to a great character, and Mamiko Noto's voice make her even more interesting. This series is really improving lately, I always knew Bee Train could surprise us (and I kind of like Bee Train after all) !

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

Makie is awesome!

I can't wait to see the next episode. Liked her background story as well.

I liked this episode. A bit of a romantic back story. And finally a fight where Manji actually looked like he was a good swordsman.

Uuuuuu~

Why do I keep running into these bad roles for Mamiko Noto. I mean, sure she looks glamorous, but seeing her play these roles is saddening to me.

I admire that Mamiko Noto chose not to be a whore though; I almost have an ounce of respect for Kagehitsa.

i love make and she's so pretty in the anime.
her and anotsu, ugh, so beautiful.

but i don't know. it's not a thing on the anime only, i was rereading the manga and well, make used to be my favourite character and now i feel like she's so full of self pity.
she was supposed to be the strongest here. and there she is, crying...
oh well...

Hookers
- The main villain uses a hooker to assassinate people
- I didn’t expect Manji to give in
- Damn, she fucked those guys up! (Deserved)
- The scene where she let her hair down to make Manji attracted to her was hilarious lmao
