Wow! What an intense episode, it felt like the end of the series yet it isn't. Ryo is still up to his antics even after what happened but it pretty much confirms how it's going to end. I don't think this episode can be beat, it may be the best in the whole City Hunter story, there's still 26 episodes counting City Hunter 3 so I guess I'll see if it holds the title.

It's been a while since I commented on anything, but this was by far tyhe best episode of the series. I loved it! I wish that in the end Kaori would stop swinging with the hammer because she remembered something about the kiss.

Whoa! That kiss!
Really surprised they didn't save that for the ending.

Lol, I love how Ryo just goes back to his same old Mokkori antics the next morning, though, even with a bum leg. XD

Exactly. It was nice to see Ryou take the initiative, but it's still a life or death situation, facing his feelings in an everyday setting will require a different kind of courage...

But yeah, like everyone said, epic episode: Shinjiku locked down, an atomic threat, the full team CH with Saeko, Reika and Umibouzu engaged in the shooting... it doesn't get any better I think.

Cool episode, Saeko is really capable, I loved how she told her superiors what to do, and how she raided that cruiser by herself. Well with her team as backup, but no Ryou.

And of course nothing was going to happen, but the atmosphere, and direction were great. It felt pretty suspenseful for a moment. Ryou, and Kaori sharing their first kiss, or is it the second? With the first ED playing in the background was nice too. A pity the episode had to end with Ryou's mokkori-ness, but I guess that I can at least say that it remained true to its essence.

I don't think Hypnosis works that way
But this is not real life, they can say it's Kaori from different timeline and it'll work out somehow xD

Kaori is Sarah
So long and the answer is in front of us

I guess this the farthest romance between those two

Next ep, back to the usual

So that's why the opening was about Sarah.

And wow, this episode blew me away. Pretty awesome, but it was to be expected that we would get back to status quo, which is Kaori using her hammer. Only difference is that she used a 101t one this time xD

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Man, these two episodes could've easily been a movie. There's so much at stake here and it has so much going for it. A really surprising episode from City Hunter but one of the best, if not THE best, episodes. I'm surprised this is just near the end, it could've been the final episode for Season 2 as well. Really fantastic.

Since the start of this season I've been strongly against not using Get Wild for the ending theme since it was such an iconic way to end each episode of season 1 that without it it just feels like a different show. But saving it all this time to be used in that climax scene this episode made it worth it. It made it feel that much more impactful, like so much was riding on that one shot, that all 100 episodes so far have been leading up to this moment. Well done, sound director. It wouldn't have worked with any other song imo.

Part two of a two part story about the country threatened by a nuke planted by the Black Army under Sarah who is none other than Kaori. She was under the control of the leader thru hynosis. One of the best action packed episodes. Great to see Umibozu and Miki in action with Ryo and Saeko.

What does Rumi Takahara, daughter of the Defense Secretary has to do with all this? All will be explained. That is the longest 5 minutes waiting for the detonation. Ryo just using his gun to disarm the nuke. How cool is that?! And the kiss!!! With 'Get Wild' by TM Network song playing in the last climatic scene.

@Shrimp_Tail totally agree. The use of Get Wild in the last few climatic scene just nails it.
