| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I feel bad for the Monkey girl...seems that she won't make it. Looks like we got more focus on the Snake and Dragon this week. They look pretty similar tbh. Tiger girl seems she's finally ready for her big fight. About time. Usagi still freaks me out. Creepiest character in this show. |
 |
| God the rabbit, I hate him so much! I hope he gets rabies and dies from a seizure! Snake and Dragon were an interesting duo! I wished I could have seen them work together in the death a bit more!!!! BUTTTT NOOOOO THE FUCKING RABBIT PUT HIS FAT ASS TAIL IN THE MIX! |

| Rabbit is just damn creepy, the corpses even more so, Ox's systematic and intelligent side is showing and I love it, Tiger is also so damn funny. A big battle is about to ensue and I can't wait. |
 |
| These twins are pretty strange in regards to how they act with each other lol But other than that, I would really hate if Tiger and Ox actually go out this way because they're the two strongest it seems (Excluding fucking Rabbit - I hate the fact he killed Monkey....My two favorite girls all dead by the same guy) |
| I was really looking forward to learning more about the twins but now that they're in the spotlight I barely find them interesting... they have no personality? On the other hand I like that we're finally seeing Ox being something else than a killing machine. I hope we get to see some of his past too. |
 |
| Rabbit is becoming my favorite character. I love it how he's killing off everyone's favorite girls lol. It bring me a warm feeling to my heart. Snake and Dragon are an interesting duo, but didn't get to know them that much. Dragon is just floating above the city. Tiger and Ox dying off like that would suck. |
 |
| Cool a prequel episode. I really liked the music. Snake and Dragon had interesting backstories but I honestly don't understand what logic the show is trying to make. Dragon was just flying because he can?? I don't really get what the rules are for this show because they haven't been established. It's super edgy and thrilling but also comedically absurd, like those arms at the end of the episode. Who thought that would be anything other than goofy? |

| uhh, not sure about Dragon & Snake, they seemed boring - maybe it's the animation, or even their VAs. they sounded barely alive. even when Snake got killed, Dragon was like "ohh fool". I just don't care either. Tora is freaking great :'D using every opportunity to get even drunker. damn cliffhanger, this time the end of the episode looks quite promising. |
| Rabbit wants to win through the power of FRIENDSHIP YAY~~~ I think a problem I have with this show is that although they are building the character's background they are not really building the world. I mean, they do give veeeery subtle ideas, like the war, but not give anything concrete to make sense on. What is a shame. Well, there is still time, maybe we can get a world exposition episode that I hope is not convoluted. So, even though Dragon and Snake were a pair, one would have to die. I see. So, Rabbit was actually using different clothes, I wonder where he got the high heels (and why). Hmm...do you really need to announce yourself to a headless corpse? I'm glad Daenerys is not in this killing game, that would take forever D: |
 |
"I wonder who will be the first fool to die" Snake, minutes before being the first participant of the Juuni Taisen to die, even before the whole thing started.Poor Snake, the show hates him a lot. The first one who is killed (just when he discovered the trap the Monkey was preparing), used by Rabbit as his puppet, is dismembered by both Tiger and Ox, and now they will burn his corpse (gotta admit, the way Ox lit the fire was pretty badass, but he is a badass anyway, so...). At least he killed Horse, even if it was due an accident (is confirmed Horse is indeed dead, he looked calm in death, considering his demise). Now it has sense why Dragon didn't cared very much for his twin brother when Rabbit decapitated him. They would had to fight to the death eventually, so he must already assume his brother was going to die at the end. Pretty cool ability, fitting for someone holding to title of the dragon. Its time to see what will be the role of Dragon in this, considering next episode is his chance to shine. I wonder why Tiger apparently dislikes Ox (now that I remember, she was looking for him when the building colapsed). I really want to see them two teaming against Rabbit and his squad of zombies. And speaking about Rabbit, if he was with normal clothes before the contest started... Does that means he stripped in front of the rest of the participants? I hope they show that scene, it would be hilarious. No deaths this episode, so the next one will probably have some ones. Os-kun said: He can fly, so he is not an easy target to ambush or confront.How the fuck did dragon survive this long. |

| So that's why we never saw the Dragon anywhere, after all he was flying... hmmm so far, only the birds of the chicken could have been an interesting counter for the Dragon, but she's dead, so GG well this episode was better, Ox is not as bad as I thought |

| With all we've seen from Ox, i doubt he gets offed so easily. I think Rabbit might be in for a suprise. |

| lol these brothers are so strong the coprse dude is stronger than anyone lol, he killed boar, helped to kill monkey, forced rat to run away, killed horse and almost killed tiger and ox and the dragon dude just chilling in the sky |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| Why didn't Ox just cut off the damn hand |
| And just like that, I was kinda hoping that Monkey will not be one of Usagi's dead "friends". Lmao. So, Snake and Dragon were robbers before. Nothing special about them two, tbh. I feel like they didn't even love or trust each other; like yeah sure we're twins. Before the fight even started, the Snake already died and the Dragon was like 'Useless fool', like okay? Hahaha. So, he can go die anytime now. Haha. Of course, this episode made me hate Usagi more. Ohmygod. Somebody kill him already. Honestly, the moment Tiger drank that alcohol, I already saw it coming that she's gonna die from burning like what were you thinking? Goddamnit. Funny that Ox took the situation to his advantage by making a promise to Tiger and there she goes she's gonna burn to death. Lmfao. Was kinda worried there for a second that Ox might die at the hands of Usagi's dead "friends" which I don't want to happen because I don't want Usagi to win the Juuni Taisen. Kinda rooting for Ox this time, even though he's an asshole. I guess his goal changed since Tiger was there, so he had to deal with them both. Lmao. I asked myself the same question, too. Are you guys okay? Lmfao. |

| Omg I actually like the character of the rabbit so much hes so freaking insane and just weird all together and makes a great character, however I dont want him to win simply because that would be too easy. i mean he kills all these people and has a super army of dead corpses on his side and just kills everyone with no strategy. I'm rooting for the rat I feel like hes got a master mind to him that will put him at an advantage to the Rabbit. Great episode I'm really lovin this show |

Not the fact that Rabbit turned from waiter to stripper? What the fuck happened? Did Ox rip off his clothes? |

Or, frozen them? Stay tuned. Of course captain obvious. By that I meant that the Chicken could have been the only one that might have reached the dragon by using the birds, not saying that it would succeed |

Os-kun said: How the fuck did dragon survive this long. Also two of the surviving members almost killed because of two arms from a corpse give me a break. He flew. Honestly if he has enough stamina to just stay that high in the sky he could literally just wait until there's only 1 person left to fight. But noo he's gonna come down at some point and get killed next because that's the pattern this anime is going with. Snake zombie will officially die, then dragon, followed by that creepy ass rabbit. What I wanna know is why the ox couldn't have just killed the half dead zombie quickly first. He's so fast an efficient yet he had to debate on whether he had enough time to do it before he could fight the tiger? Also how did the monkey stab through the horse to get the gem? isn't his body like super hard? did it get soft with death? Moreover I'm still cheesed that the monkey actually died like that. Such BS. |
| Holy sheet this is in my top 3 anime this year not including sequels!! I love the characters, and especially all that are still alive. My Predictions: 5th place: Tiger, killed my Ox. 4th place: Dragon, killed by Rabbit. 3rd place: Rabbit, killed by Ox. 2nd place: Rat, killed by Ox. Bam Ox wins. How I want it to go: 5th: Ox 4th: Rat 3rd: Rabbit 2nd: Tiger 1st: Dragon (this won't happen probably ;c) |
| Lol, didn't expect Tiger and Ox to get into a predicament like that. Who would've thought the arms would be their death experience. |
  |
| The dragon guy is in the best position, just floating above the city. Eventually it will be his turn to die. Monkey girl official became a zombie. It really does suck. And Ox and Tiger are about to get killed by the decapitated zombie. They probably will not die... yet. |
 |
| Honestly I wasn't very interested in the twins, even after their backstory, they just seemed pretty boring. Tiger and Ox have now found themselves in a predicament (which could have been avoided if Ox just finished off the corpse quickly instead of wasting time talking to Tiger), but Ox seems to have solved by sparking that fire. His quick thinking was rather impressive, and lol at Dragon just chilling in the sky the entire time. |

As far as it was shown, Rabbit controls the whole being he touches. Even if he did pierce the corpse, how does it affect the hands though? Unless it is some innate Snake ability, Rabbit still had control of his hands and head. I mean, we are both lacking some information but did you just assume Ox is stupid? Wow. K, no need to be a dick about it. |

| I don't now if this anime was overrated or underrated but it's frickin awesome Quietly believing that saru girl is still alive, like she put in some Tokyo ghoul sclera contacts😅 |
 |
| Dunno why but I really feel like the characters die too sudden in this show, before they even have the chance to do something. This is what really let me down in this anime. I liked 3 characters. Monkey, boar and sheep. But their deaths were literally retarded imo. |
 |
| That was a pretty shit episode because we totally wanted the backstory of a character that is already dead! Makes sense |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| Well i guess Sharyu is dead and a zombie now then. I had hopes that she will be one of the survivors. A sibling team sure is unusual though. So the two were robbers then. So though they were twins the brothers belonged to different houses that worked together then interesting. So it was their carelessness that got the younger one killed then. So the horse was also eliminated as well. Though dying by suffocation sure was unexpected. Tora really loves to drink though doesn't she. But she really is pretty fast though thats for sure. The younger brother really had it tough even after death. Well Tora does seem to have a grudge against the ox then. But that surprise attack from snake's corpse though wow. Now that was an interesting episode with quite a few surprises. |

| Man another great episode. I really want to see Ox and Tiger go at it. Also lol'ing that Snake's bro has been chilling up in the air since the whole game started. Excited for the next episode. |
 |
| Dragon and Snake have the most boring backstory so far. Also, this battle royale has been just non-stop "loses for letting guard down," which is getting way too repetitive. This series is quite disappointing so far. |
