That was interesting. The more I watch this show, the more fantasy vibes I got from this. And like previously, the group gets themselves into more trouble.

It looks like someone sees Doronjo as an angel. I just love her energy though for trying to do the right thing. A fabulous episode especially with that neat little invention :D

Galina and Alouette having also seen the evils of Yatterman. It was nice to see that the Dorombo was able to witness some warmth.

Gal is pretty indecisive to use the dice to decide his fate. It was pretty awesome how Dorombo decided to go back to save the two. Going through thick and thin together, it was nice to see that it wasn't just an one time meeting and that they are going together! Gal also deciding for himself was good to see too.

That being their catchphrase and escaping. So the story ends here xD

This show is just fun XD The Sakuga in this show is quite rare to see these days ^^

The guys reactions to getting touched up by Alouette was hilarious XD Man it felt weird to see them naked throughout half the ep and even piling up nude with Leopard in a closet :P

Oda-sama was so lol rubbing against Alouette with his <3 shaped eyes XD

And Alouette's smile just healed that Yatterman guy into not being suspicious anymore :3

Lots of craziness during the second half lol...It's Dekopin time. Quite happy that Alouette is staying. She's a fun cute character <3 Loving the new outfits. Props to Gachan XD

That was Doronbo's catchphrase after been defeated by the Originals Yatterman, its a reference.....

I still stunned with the fact that an anime supposed to be a 40 Year homage became a hole reversal, i am loving this but a same time its so bold to the director.

I liked this episode. So two more people are going to join them. And they have been suffering because of the Yatterman as well so it does make sense for those two to go with them.

Galina basing his decisions on dice tossing is probably a reference to the original series

The ep was great. I'm more curious to what happened that the Yatterman are evil, and why the moon (?) is shaped like a skull. My suggestion is that it's Dokurobey who watches over, since as we see, the Yatter Kingdom isn't a place how it was mentioned being rich and full of everything.

The tone of this show is really bad. It's trying to mix the original show's comedic antics with a darker role-reversal tone, but the combination just makes me unable to take either side seriously. It's like a Joss Whedon show if written by Elmo from Sesame Street.

What a bizarre show... It mixes 2 completely different tones. I am not really a fan of it because it makes certain moments to appear uneasy or creepy when I don't really think it's what it's actually going for at all. At least, not most of the time anyway.

I won't lie though, it's a fun show with some enjoyable characters but I am not sure if I can really call it "Good" yet.

The nakedness of this episode creep'd me out a bit too. I wouldn't mind so much if it didn't involve a 9 year old girl but putting a girl that young in a closet with 2 large naked men while she herself is naked... yeah... no... Lol

Wasn't too much humor this week so the weird tone didn't bother me as much as last week but there was still a mix of sillyness with grim atmosphere. The more I look at it though, like when the Yatterman came to the door and forced the guy to do a pose, the more it seems like these robots were built to stop crime but they went haywire or something and took over the Yatter Kingdom.

I am not entirely sure what purpose these 2 new characters will serve to the plot besides the obvious connection to Leopard's mom. They don't really have much for personality though besides the girl's mother issues and the guys... dice... thing... They are fairly fleshed out though so I don't mind too much.

The animation is fluid but the overall quality is pretty up and down, nothing really to complain about though. The music isn't all that good either but it fits the show fine so nothing much to complain about there..

Honestly, I am still not too sure what to make of this show yet. It's got good atmosphere but the tone and substance doesn't fit it at all. An interesting world but doesn't really do much with it. Likable characters but they don't really fit the tone or atmosphere... It's got some intrigue so I'll stick with it but this might just end up being a passable adventure series. It's alright so far.

It really made me sad to see that Ally is in denial about the death of her parents and dog...And then seeing her face when Leopard and the game left almost broke me

The last part brought tears of joy to my eyes though, I really love the energy that Leopard and the gang brings to this series. I love those guys and I hope that they succeed in everything that they do because they deserve to

I cannot stand these Yatterman guys, they're so cruel however I like Ally's friend....Guess my suspicion of him being dead going to by the ED song last week was wrong....I can still kinda see him and Ally possibly becoming true and kind Yatterman at the end

This show has a very strange chemistry. And I agree that the amount of naked scenes was unsettling. I mean, Leopald herself was probably fine (she is still innocent), but watching this was disturbing.

I like the mellow colors, and the music at the moments when Galina had to decide what to do was beautiful. Though the fact that Galina is a Russian female name makes him a bit funny in my eyes.

The postapoclypse vibes are nice. It's like a discarded playground, only with living people left to suffer through the bizarre.

I think I like the show. It's different, but not boring to watch.

A very satisfying episode. Hopefully when this is all said and done, Ally can wake up from the dream she's living in. Interesting to see Galina use dice to determine what to do next, but at the end he finally decided for himself. Looks like Doronbow is already changing lives!

Like I said, satisfying episode. We got both plot progression and some fun action. They've got some nice new costumes too.

Of all Anime that has terrorism glorifications (aka where Main Characters are terrorists or terrorist antagonists are shown as in-right), you pick one where there is none? Do you even know what that word means (hint: it is the opposite of helping civilians)?

I will not deny that some animes have a terrorist as main caracter. but THIS one its not about this.


PS:. I know, its sad when thing like terrorist attacks happens, but honestly anyone thinks that those people are influenced but a JAPANESE animation!?

Dont think about the small details and try to enjoy it for what is...
I don't expect justice. I expect revenge, even if it solves nothing in the end.
I don't expect redemption. I expect decadence and self destruction.
I don't expect compassion. I expect selfishness.
I don't expect people making choices. I expect a cruel fate forced upon them.

There were mechanical/metal scraps in the basement (Boyakki points to the fact when he explains Galina how he managed to build the alarm clock)

It is still surreal how he manages to build a whole mecha, but such is the style of the show.

Yeah I was also really uncomfortable with the nakedness... especially when they were all stuffed in that closet. Like... was there a point in them being naked? Or is it just fanservice of grown men... and a nine year old girl...? If this repeats the show will get a lolicon rep lol

Other than that I really like the direction this is taking. It's a weird combo of comedy/seriousness but it works for me. Quite excited to see where this is going overall, there's a lot of potential.

For me it is clear it is NOT fanservice. It is a return to another time where nakedness in animes was not meant to be fanservice, at least whenever old men or children were involved is was a gag, a joke.

I like this episode, though I still think the comedy does not fit the tone of the show. It's, again, extremely jarring. And I really do not know which moment I should take seriously & which one I should not. This anime show really reminds me of how jarring Your Lie in April is.

Why does this show sometimes remind me of Gurren Lagann?

So far, I like it a lot. Definitely one of my favorites of the Winter season. It's got a lot of energy, and is just plain fun in general. The tone may be all over the place, but like a few other people have mentioned around these threads, it's similar to the older Yatterman series in that aspect.

I wasn't won-over by the first 2 episodes, but they got me in the 3rd! Awkwardness, comedy, naivety and a likable bunch of characters all contributed to my enjoyment of the episode. I am wondering what the deal is with the Yattermen though. An AI running rampant or are they just drones controlled by the humans in power? I plan on watching more to find out!
