Really hard to enjoy this episode with such horrible animation. Anything that wasn't a close-up shot was just utterly terrible. Such a shame too since it was such an action-heavy episode...

Animation isn't as bad as people say it is.

Most likely the lowering in animation quality has lead to a recap episode next week, since they are probably barely meeting deadlines as-is. We can probably expect better quality for episode 10.

Holy fuck, S-rank. That's some real shit there. This episode was great, loved the action. And damn, so next week will be a recap, ugh. I want the next episode already, because things are getting more interesting each time again.

Agreed. Didn't notice anything terrible in terms of the animation quality, but I hardly notice those things in most shows.

S/5?

A/0 is op as fuck, I wonder what a S/0 can do.

I still want to know what Staz is doing in Gangsta.

What Rank is Erica then? She got destroyed by Ginger who is S/5 and that's supposedly 1 rank above A/0 right? Nicolas takes drugs to be A/0 level and he was on equal footing with that dreadlock kid and he's A/0, but Nicolas got wrekted by Erica

things escalated pretty quick this ep!
i thought the 'siblings' title referred to just alex and her bro emilio, but i guess it's about delico and erica too!
for a moment there, i feared for marco's life, i like him! i'm guessing that ring was(?) from his girlfriend?
and Nic's a faker! goddammn i didnt see that coming! whatever he's still so badass and i love him!!!

next ep is an extension of ep9 isn't it? 9.5? i guess it's the staff's way of extending the show? cuz seriously i want Gangsta to get extended.

The animation and art was horrible yet again so I guess that explains the recap next week, huh? Ugh.

I don't care if you're a faker, Nicolas. I still love you ♡ But damn, didn't expect Ginger to be S/5. I hope to see more of her in action.

I definitely didn't see that Faker thing coming.
So Nico is a B/5... if I'm not mistaken, when he was a child he was a C/3, right?
I hope we can see him ranking up.

If Evangelion were Rokka no Yuusha the seventh would be Shinji.

9.5? Well... recap episode next week most probably. The animation has been really awkward to look at recently anyway so it could use that extra time.

yes, it does. Realy close following actually.
But manga still have little more fun stuff that wasn't on anime.


Why everybody think that 9.5 will be a recap when there were only 9 eps, and only 3 left? I think, there's no point in doing that.

Usually when a show does a recap during the season it means they are behind and need time so they do a recap. Ep count doesn't matter.

Kekkai Sensen did it, though they are an extreme example since the last ep has been delayed for like two months now.

Don't let Nic being a Faker cloud your view of him..

I'm glad he isn't that natural badass, it's about time we get someone who needs to that boost to play with the big boys but Nic is so damn amazing, he is a top character this year..

Also, that kid did annoy me as much as he did in the manga, can't wait to see more..

If there is a S/5 tag it means that there is someone who is an S/0 tag

I would love to see a battle between S/0 tag Overdosed I guess its battle would be like Dragonball xD

Fuckin' hell, just blew through episodes 8 and 9 all at once and I almost couldn't hold me tears in at the sight of Constance....

Welp, in any case, they just had to make a recap for next episode, or at least I'm expecting a flashback heavy episode.
It's understandable though. With the pacing they have right now, it would be stupid to finish the season half-way through the next arc. And since this arc and the beginning of the next arc are so inter-connected, it would be best to end things at the conclusion of Loretta's story. Still, it means watchers will be left with a bazillion questions that they introduced in these past few episodes, but won't ever address (unless there's a season 2 of course).

that episode was awesome , i really enjoyed watching it and events get even more exciting and more tense .

Nic get my full attention when i found out that he is a faker and his rank should be at most B/5 , i know his abilities increase by drugs but i didn't know that someother persons got A/0 by increase their physically abilities cuz to got this level you have to do a lot of work and push your physically limits for that and of course need some help with drugs or medications to reach that kind of rank ( A/0 ).

well, next episode we will see alex's bother and what is his story .

True, there were plenty of shots that looked fine. But it was very noticeable that they had a hard time making the deadline, overall the episode was rather static and dull because there wasn't enough time to add more shots/angles and animation. But the episode got worse later on, especially the shot were the psycho kid kicked Nicolas on the ground. It was just....wrong

I don't like recaps but at least it will give the studio a chance to deliver consistent quality for the next episode. Blame the industry, if only the industry focused on quality instead of quantity

LOL @ Nicolas' little smile when he said he bought them five minutes

Disappointing quality this episode. Some of the drops in quality were so painfully obvious they were too hard too ignore...

That was fun. Its good to see Nic isnt nearly as strong as people thought. Opens the chance for him to become stronger. Not sure I like the idea of Alexs brother on the other side. It may end in a predictable way. I hope not.
Anyway, only 3 episodes left.

Great episode, but the art being a bit awkward!! -_-

yeah it's true Nicolas FAKER and he is rank B/5, But we can't deny that he is the best character in this anime.♥

I think episode 9 = 3 chapters from the manga ^^"
Hmmmm!! Looking forward for the last 3 episodes.
