Even though the episode was great I somehow got dissapointed about the fact that they are so scared of killing people.. It's not that I'm a bad person but it somehow drained the darkness out of the show, besides, it made Twelve's threat to Lisa totally pointless. Now the MCs appear a bit as stereotypical antiheroes

They can kill Lisa secretly without using a bomb, think about it. A suicide attempt from a glance or dying from food poisoning, don't expect them to be scared to throw people off their scents but not from their bombings. Think about it, a side accident not attracted to terrorist when they need people to listen an hear what they have ins tore, makes sense in context. Think deeply and don't rely ont he anime to give you the entire answers. You are suppose to think freely.

8/10 for this episode.

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.

so our 2 heroes really trying to avoid killing anybody, until endanger themselves by using their bodies to protect the innocent...

Nine said Lisa is not "one of us", and now he got Five, whom is use to be one of them i guess :)

I thought this was going to be Nine & Twelve vs, Shibazaki, but now... we have a wild card called Five. Just makes it more exciting.

When is Lisa going to have some relevancy in the story? l

Intense episode.

I'm guessing they are after the shutdown of that school. When that bomb blew and Nine was on the train.. oh sh*t! They certainly are trying their best to have zero casualties. I wonder how many other people were sleeping on the train that did die... by the numbers, the smoke bomb should have been enough to reduce damages without Nine getting on the train (just let it blow).

So I'm not exactly fond of the idea of Five... it reminds me too much of the Near/Mello stuff from Death Note... I wonder if they went to the same school? ... seriously, how often do you need to paint your nails?

Has anyone noticed the following:

-VON spelled backwards is NOV could this be No.V [No.5] are they after FIVE or coincidence?

- In an earlier episode Nine and Twelve mention "no lying" to each other. Possible betrayal to either save Lisa [Nine's reasoning] or kill her [Twelve's logic]. This goes into my other though about Twelve below.

- I get the strange feeling Twelve doesn't care about human life as his interactions with Lisa without Nine are of a more darker tone. He mentions in episode 2 that he wouldn't hesitate to kill her. He puts on a facade in front of Nine to keep up with his appearance as Twelve in front of him.

-Any reason why the billboard ad when the signal interference occurs there is a "No. 1" on it? Symbolizing something here?

Just a few things I've noticed so far.


Good eyes!!! Very interesting!!

Definitely a change in both plot and interest.
Something more finally leaked and the excitement was there. Wondering who is so more powerful than First Division is to stop them from avoid a mass disaster. Clearly Five and that group of men are involved with that group.

Direction changed, good episode 4/5.
I was actually expecting nine to jump in and it did happen, not fond of the idea of five.It reminds me too much of death note, except no one here is as good as L.

wow so five is kinda hot xD loved her character design! i'd say this wasn't as enjoyable as previous episodes but still pretty darn good especially the last 5-10mins still guessing as to how there going to tie this up, but their aim clearly isn't to harm anyone (or at least try not to)

agree with most on the brief but unnecessary fan service.... not needed but least it wasn't a long scene i can forgive! xD

It was good episode, we find out more about Five. Shibazaki is more calm now while Nine isn't so much...

Actually now that I think about it, Five was at that place where Nine and Twelfth were also at when they were little. Twelfth's got some nice hacking skills though. We get an attack the subway station. Damn, what an episode.



I don't understand your statement "now that I think about it five was at that place". How is there any possible way not to catch that watching this episode lol.

So nobody else noticed Five got introduced in episode 5?

Not to mention episode 9 was 9 of 11 total and aired on 9/11, but I suppose that's irrelevant to this episode. I just got finished catching up to this series this season again after leaving off at episode 4.

I must watch too much Psychological genre.

"That person doesn't want to stop the bomb, but let it blow up instead?"
"I think so."
"They're crazy."
"You're telling me."

So what exactly does that make them, then? And if they're so afraid of fatally wounding people why plant the bomb in such a public place - because the plot requires it, of course... so contrived. ;_;

Decent episode, but I hear that Fives introduction is when this series begins to go downhill. I guess I'll find out whether or not that true pretty soon. Not really impressed with her so far.
Matsuoka Yoshitsugu has hardly any range as a voice actor, and is grossly over-cast.

I guess the laws of One Piece apply to Zankyou no Terror, with people surviving explosions and stuff. Twelve was just beaten up by an explosion.

Woah, why is Lisa cute in this episode :O She should stay like that.
"That's more than enough to blow up a whole train" Bomb explodes.......and I thought 9 will die, and then.........he only suffered a cute scratch at his back =.=
Why the fuck does 5 looks like that?!?! This Anime reminds me of Mirai Nikki with its number names, and Death Note.
Of course, mah boys doesn't really want to kill people :D

Sadly that's the feeling I'm getting. This anime was really good and sucking me in. Then they go off with the 5 angle...I dunno. I'm gonna finish it and hope I'm proven wrong.

Ahh.. so they didn't want to cause any casualties after all.
Seems like Five totally sent them on a wild goose chase this time.
Lucky the bomb wasn't in that carriage.. they only suffer the impact of the blow.
Now they have someone to stand in their way.. getting excited.
Lisa can be really cheerful when she's with a couple of terrorists eh ?

I knew that Nine and Twelve has no intention of killing anyone. They risk their lives just to stop the bomb they put by their own.
Five is the new character, and she has a connection to Nine and Twelve.

With the introduction of Five I feel like the series could go downhill. Nine and Twelve are accused of treating this as a game while Five actually thinks its a game not having any value for Human life (which gives her and advantage) while the boys risked their entire work to stop the bomb.
Battle of intelligence? With Shibazaki as their key to complete their plan
The plot so far seems to familiar where am pretty sure all have seen before
except with Lisa She doesn't fit in anywhere to the clichéd plot and hopefully make this good smart show into a great one

Wow, didnt think we get to see a nervous Nine. Good to know there is more to their 'random' attacks.

I wonder if it's luck that Nine didn't die from the explosion, or there is something with his body...

And Lisa annoys me...i hope she'll get out of there T____T
