The only thing i could of used was a recap of some of their pasts. Other than that there was nothing in need of refreshing. Of course they didn't cover that... -.-

What the hell was the point of a recap episode in a series like this? Ugh, it's not like we needed that at all.

Looks like this is a flashback of Mario of everything that happened to them before he sets out to find Ishihara. Boring nonetheless. Nothing new.

worst episode so far. it wasn't rly neccessary for a recap episode, especially at a point where mario might or might not have killed ishihara. D:

I knew this was gonna happen, recap episodes are not counted as "bad episode". It's not even counted as an episode because its just a bunch of compiled scenes from 1-12.

Too all future viewers~ Skipping is OK

The point of a recap episode is that it gives the animators some breathing room to make sure they stay on schedule. Sometimes it also means that a new OP animation is on the way.

Still, there's no real reason to watch it other than to occupy your time between episodes.

I enjoyed some of the back ground music, although it was a recap i saw some clips and called it good.

A recap in a 26-episode series when you're adapting a 20+ volume manga? Brilliant. Who cares about including more material from the manga, right?

It's always fun to read all the hate in discussion threads for recap episodes.

For a recap episode, it was good, and I didn't mind seeing it again. At least it's better than if it'd been a crappy filler.

Recaps are so the animators can have more time to work on the newer episodes. Also helps refresh the audiences' memory.

Recap... felt really unneeded, especially this early on. So I was bored.

I was thinking for the last episode, where Mario is against Ishihara and thinking he needs to finish him off... I guess what Anchan taught you, Mario, is that being kind gets you nowhere and nice guys finish last. So you go and kill Ishihara now. Ugh.

I've settled down between this episode and the last, but now I'm just annoyed.

Fucking recaps. They're worse than filler because at least filler is new and can be entertaining. Recap is shit we've all seen before.

I almost fell asleep thrice. 1/5.

I put this show on hold at episode 12 a year ago because of the loss of Sakuragi... this recap after all this time has brought all of that emotion and thrill back. It's as if I watched all 12 episodes again in an instant.

Lets do this, I'm going all the way this time. See you all at episode 26.

I had just finished episode 12 when I was walking to the bathroom, tripped and hit my head - temporary amnesia. Totally forgot the last 3 days so this recap episode was perfect for me! :3

Recap episode.

Decided to watch this episode for completionists sake and boy was it boring. The only redeeming factor was Mario's narration.

5/10

Overall the first half started out really good but I felt like it kind worsened after Mario, Turtle, Joe, and Sakuragi escaped the reformatory.

I will still give this half an 8/10 for the really good start.

I hope the second half is even better.
