| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Redcoats?! Now that just got interesting. This was a rather chaotic episode. It's interesting that they explore other districts and the society in this series. Jean's role in this show continuously gets me curious about what his actual goals are. I mean, he does get kidnapped this episode since he heard about the coup. But for it's worth, I think the episode did a good job at getting the viewers more interested in the different type of societies involved in the story. At least Warbler ends up staying in the end. |

| This show consistantly has me wondering what's going to happen next. Not that it's extremely unpredictable (or very eventful - yet), it's just the story is slow and definitely original, so I really don't know what's going to happen with each coming episode. I'm really enjoying it so far. Jean's role and motivations as the MC are still pretty unknown to us, and I'm excited to see what he'll do in the coming episodes. Hopefully more of what he's really thinking gets revealed soon. Seeing the different districts is really interesting. I'll be looking forward to next week's episode. |

| So nino was there in the Coup thing, and Jean (probably) recognized him. Still, don't know what Jean is thinking and what he really wants. I feel like something gonna happen.. though i have no clue about what. |
| There are more coups running here. Nino saved Jean there from being attacked! Good guy, Nino! Jean surely noticed this. Warbler is a good man, Jean actually let him stay. Nice moment. Grossular with the ending scene again. What is up with him, are we being led to a false path here? Lotta is under surveillance, too from the prince it seems. She's also doing interesting stuff with packages. |

| The Suitsu District is quite interesting. It's basically the colonial times. Everyone was awestruck when they saw the phone and cigarette. The coup was a failure, but everyone was released because of Jean to keep a secret. The guy that saved Jean was Niino. |
 |
| Another very interesting district ("nation")...the world-building in this is fantastic. I wonder if Jean knows Niino has been onto him for years, i wouldn't be surprised if yes. The cigarettes...are they some kind of sign? |
| Suitsu district is a very interesting place, but that doesn't mean I'd like to live there haha, it'll probably be hell for someone like me. So far I'm loving the 13 district concept, every place is unique and vastly different from each other, I'm looking forward to seeing the next one. |

"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Very interesting episode. So there's more than one coup going on here, Interesting. Pretty sure Jean noticed Nino saving him. Pretty nice of Jean to make it so that Warbler can see things to the end, hope the Suitsu district can bring about the change they need. Really sad that their representative didn't give a shit about them once he got elected, then again that's not pretty far from politicians today. XD I'm still unsure what Jean's goal are, What exactly does he want to do in all this and why? He says he does things for cigarettes and even Grossular was concerned about that at the end. Wonder if that actually leads to something. :o |
 |
| So here we get a dictature within a monarchy with people not having the right to leave nor to live with technology (the way they want). A kind of reservation, or a zoo with humans having limited civil rights. If you ask me, I'm so much looking forward a king and nobility decapitation. A revolution is needed. Not so sure about jean playing it cool in any circumstances. It makes this character less credible. |
| WOAH TECHNOLOGY... It's like they never seen a cellphone before... xD.. Lotta gets stalked by the prince.. hmmm that ain't right Jean didn't heard all about the coup... and got abducted Now that their nation is nowhere gone.. they become an outsider... Am i having a vibe about politics cause it seems like it.. Honestly... Jean's background is a little bit mysterious... I want to more about this coup de tat thing in the next ep. |

| I'm impressed with this show, topics of politics generally bore me. I won't even turn on the news here because all that airs is talk about America's new president. However, this show has manage to keep me hooked from episode 1. |

No wonder, he easily takes right actions without expressing much anxiety (having predicted the outcome). And I am sure he knows about Niino watching him. I hope we get to see as much different districts in the upcoming episodes as possible. This is always a fun and intriguing watch. |
| Ooh nice episode. I really like how every district we see fells very distinct from the others. And, the more i watch, the more it appears that Jean is just an innocent guy who is being misunderstood by most people and being dragged to take a part of the revolution. Like apparently his cigarettes come from his "second job" as some kind of sales representative for the people of his condo. Of course, i could be taking it too lightly. Also, could Nino be a double agent? As he appears to be helping the rebellion. |

I already think this is a show that once it's over you'll need to rewatch to catch the subtle hints of the ending. Of course for now we can't see the subtle hints. :) |

| Good episode, but an acquaintance of mine came up with a really awesome theory that I'll ask his permission to share in a seperate thread |
| Before this episode I speculated that the magazines/brochures Jean carries around were his method of contacting his coup allies in different districts, but they were actually just a side job so that the businessmen in his apartment complex could expand their businesses in less developed districts? Or is there more to this than meets the eye since it's found out at the beginning of the episode that Grossler secretly owns the apartment building. This episode was great in that we finally get a small glance as to how Jean views the current system even though more questions are dropped on us. |
| To us, the viewers, it looks like Nino and Grossular are communicating with each other via cell phones, but I have a feeling that's not the case. I'm suspecting that Grossular is talking to someone that wants to destroy Jean, while Nino is talking to someone that is actually helping or trying to protect Jean. Someone or something very powerful is on Jean's side and I believe it may be the Liliums. Once again, I've come away with more questions than answers, but I am still loving every minute of it! |

| Felt like Jean deliberately let himself be captured by the guys when he heard "coup d'etat" bec he didn't put up any resistance. Also like how Jean managed to save everyone at the end.  |

| OK, I definitely didn't expect a French Revolution in this show. |
| A less interesting episode after the best episode (3). Wasn't that interesting to see the stuff going on in that district. If they can later tie it to an overall plot (maybe coup attempts in other districts) the things we saw in this episode might gain value. But it showed a bit about Jean and that he is willing to help coup people and he didn't seem involved so far. (At least not in that district.) |
| The desire of change and the politic state of the district was well detailed. A lot of things happened, but the episode succeed to keep its calm atmosphere. I'm sure Jean noticed Nino |

I agree that they are talking to different people. Actually, in the previous episode Niino was talking on the phone with someone after he had a meeting with Groshular. And in this episode it seems to be implied that the owner of the building is in fact Crow's boss. |
| I really like this show now. Kuzu and ACCA are the only two non-sequel shows that I look forward to. Jean is such a fun character to watch on screen since he is laid back and chill. So the nobles prevent Suitsu from development leading to many failed revolutions, and because of Suitsu's strict policy on information/technology even news about a revolution wont make it out. Which just shows how important technology is. The people of Suitsu sure are unlucky, and forever trapped in an underdeveloped state. |
| Jean is such a boss, to stay so calm cool and collective like he does during all this political turmoil. And he is just a nice guy in general. |

| this show really is growing on me to bad not a lot of people are giving it a chance, it's not even like anything crazy has happened but i've had some "oh shit" moments in predicting future events . interesting that there's just a district force to live out a amish like lifestyle meanwhile everyone else has been able to advance in technology just for the sake of tradition and formality and whoever Niino is talking to they know about this other coup now |
 |
| This anime is becoming quickly so good. Jean is probably the most chilled guy ever xD This guy is so OP, i still can't believe how he managed to "go out" from that situation and ended up saving those people and that ACCA guy. But it's sad watching those people having such a shitty life, they are basically living in the XVIII/XVIV century, while the rest of the country is in the XXI century. I really hope the succeed with the revolution. I still can't get why Groshular is trying to blame everything on Jean, the only theory that i have is that he is the one who is trying to take down the government. |

| i wonder if jean always thinking to ACCA and higher up politicians "wtf are these retards doing, spying on me this whole time for no reason...." |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| My bet is that suitsu (and its people) will be a great piece for the outcome. Smudy said: Grossular with the ending scene again. What is up with him, are we being led to a false path here? I'm still reading the commentaries but this caught my attention. Tbh, since the 2nd episode, IMO, Grossular is a pawn. What I mean is that he haves that patriotic and duty vibes; The Prime Minister (?) - the black coat bearded man - may be using him as a puppet, to the coup and, maybe, Lillium (the green haired chief with earrings) has another plans regarding the coup but not as the good guy as the anime has shown us. It's all about hullabaloo, making a buzz, an uproar, while the true puppet master sneak away and do his/her thing. I'll LMAO if the puppet master is Maeve, for example. One thing is certain: The two extremes is Lilium and Grossular, the opening show this. About Jean, he said that he can't see people situation during auditions. So, I guess that he'll start to think about all this setup and make his move. I'm pretty sure that he is aware of a thing or two about his situation, besides, he is smart as hell. This anime surprises me, more and more. |

| "[...]I have to admit I'm not a big anime fan. Most anime that makes it over here seems to be either about schoolgirls with supernatural powers who battle evil, or adolescent boys who - for some convoluted reason - wind up having to pilot big giant robots...although, today, you just need to put some boobs or harem and fantasy and it'll be 10/10." |
GangsterCat said: i wonder if jean always thinking to ACCA and higher up politicians "wtf are these retards doing, spying on me this whole time for no reason...." Jean is more likely "mendokusai"  |
| Best episode yet. The characters introduced seemed a lot more human than those we've met so far. I'm loving the slow burn and mystery but was super happy to finally get some action too. |
| was Nino really helping those people? or was he just secretly monitoring Jean? |
| This episode felt like they are focusing in showing us the importance of Jean's role. |
 |
jenkk said: was Nino really helping those people? or was he just secretly monitoring Jean? I think he kept following Jean (as always) without being in the way, but when real danger appeared he had to interfere. |
| Jean is fucking awesome man he was a hostage and he turned things around to his side |
 |
| Interesting episode, even though it did feel like a bit of a departure from the overarching story. The world-building in this show is on point I must say: the Suitsu District is painfully reminiscent of the gap in technology and overall advancement between colonies and mainlands, and the secondary coup d'état was an interesting sub-plot which allowed to further establish both Jean's character and the country's current situation. Like others I agree that Nino might be playing some kind of double agent game where his actual endgoal is to protect Jean rather than simply monitoring his movements on Grossular's behalf. In which case, hemight be working on his own or could very well be employed by somebody else. Possibly the King, which would give credence to the "Jean = illegitimate royal descendant" theory? Ah, this show keeps me guessing. |

| The story that is presented to us, it seems an end in itself, but there is something I do not back this time as well. At the beginning of episode, I thought we were faced yet another act of a bizarre plot, but then, it did not go well, if we analyze the background; there is nothing new to what we already knew before, at least apparently. Known that we focused more on the socio-environmental aspects that the real plot, which would be the coup true or any fictional character whose Jean Otus, should be part of it. I believe that the environmental aspect, it is an element that had to come sooner or later, to make the story credible and intriguing; They have done well to introduce it. Even this time, the characters have, disappointed me, Jean remains shrouded in mystery. |
 |
| well that was interesting how there is always some hidden truths that are not seen but are there.... |
 |
| I like how the people in suitsu (suitsu = sweets for those who didn't notice) have food or drinks names. There's beurre (french for butter), pastis (french alcohol), biscuit, etc... Sometimes i feel like this anime is even smarter than it looks, and it already looks pretty smart. |
| Now, that was quite the old-fashioned district this time. |
  |
| I should probably watch this at day time than at night because it keeps making me fall asleep, I still find it somewhat interesting and wonder how this one will turn out |
