| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Seems some mysterious memories appeared in Yukiya's head this episode. For one thing, I think they're giving him an important task to accomplish and it won't be easy. Yukiya better get his head straight about his future. Felt like a slow episode. |
 |
| This kid's parents look familiar to me..... |
| Could this show actually be improving? Yay Koyori is back and Tazuna probably next episode. |
 |
| Am I the only one who thought this episode was better than the first one? |
| Why make the new MC fall for the girl of the previous MC, what kind of cuck are they trying to accomplish this time. At least good news, I really hope Mayumi and the pedo doc are lost forever in that Ziggurat, they deserve it. Too soon to know what is going on, but that boy is certainly not son of Break and Bind. |

In his defense, it's kinda hard not to fall for her, I am sure you know what I mean. And I am sure that will be cleared up eventually, but we still don't know where is Tazuna. And who knows, Yukiya probably actually is the son of Break/Bind chain, since they were like the oldest in the previous cast. And he is a Hand Shaker too, which would match if it were a hereditary feature. |
| His dad looks way too young to be his dad xD Really liked the ed! It would also have been nice if there was some kind of recap episode for the first season, because I really don't remember much. |

The synopsis actually really says "Yukiya, who is "probably" 14 years old..", so he is certainly some kind of Benjamin Button or Peter Pan and had a magic gronw up. |
| I feel its hard to believe he would be Break and Chain's kid consider this plays out 10 years after the first season and that would mean he would have been 4 years old in that one. And the last time you saw Break and Chain in season 1 they didnt walk around with a kid so I find it kinda hard to believe even if it was them who acted as his parent right now. |

Maybe, I did thought about those. Maybe he is their adoptive kid, or maybe they had him a few years before the action from the first season, since we don't actually know a lot about them. They were the characters with the least screen time. Well, either way I don't think it's really relevant overall which is it, but I do think that his parents have to have been Hand Shakers, and there are really not that many pairs that we know who could fill that bill... |

Adoptive seems more legit in that case I would say, cuz of the diffrencess in appearnce as the eye color and hair color doesnt match up at all with his "Parents" and if he was adoptive by some reason it would even explain the "Propably 14" part with no one knowing his actual age and just guesses how old he was when he got adoptive. |

HeroVladimir93 said: Hand Shakers was not a bad series, it just needed some serious polishing. I've said it before and I'm sure I'll say it again. This episode is trying to establish a stronger connection with Hand Shakers by bringing back Koyori. Oh, yes! Koyori is back... and she doesn't seem to have aged that much. She looks like a teenager. Sumire Morohoshi still gives her the same youthful voice she had in the previous show. Koyori asks Yukiya to help find Nagaoka and her sister Mayumi, who got lost in the Ziggurat after the events of the previous show. Koyori has taken up her parents' old job as scientific researcher and says she is not a Hand Shaker anymore. Ok, so... what happened to Tazuna? Is he okay? Did he got lost in the Ziggurat, as well? What happened to the previous Hand Shakers? Are they involved in this new fight as well? This show is leaving quite a few questions for those interested in the previous story. Hopefully, we will get answers soon enough. While I am glad that the show is trying to continue the story from the previous show, I'm worried that this will take away screen-time from Yukiya, the new protagonist. Tazuna is a good character and I'm interested to see what would happens if he met Yukiya, but in the meantime, Yukiya has to prove himself as a worthy protagonist, otherwise people won't be interested in him once Tazuna shows up. This is the exact same scenario Luke Skywalker and Rey faced in the Star Wars sequel trilogy, and considering the divisive fan reception for The Last Jedi, hopefully this will turn out to be much better. By the looks of it, there won't be much focus on the old characters. It seems they are not even Hand Shakers anymore. They will probably stick around to help the current characters a bit and hopefully get their own good ending. Half-seriously, everyone knows that when a character gets over 20, they are not protagonist material anymore. They just become boring mentor characters.... |
| That was an anticlimactic episode in terms of the action, but at least we got to see Koyori whom by the way is liked by Yukiya. I Feel bad for Haruka though. |

| We got Koyori back ~! :D She's just... a bit taller, not much change in her design. I also want to see Tazuna & Makihara back! |
 |
| Decent episode however much on the slow side. It was cool to see the characters from the season 1 with a much more mature look as looking like elementary school students was one of my complains about the S1 characters. OP and ED were fine specially the visuals for the OP were nice. Hopefully we get a better story and character developments in this season. |
| So can we now say that Haruka is out of that Ziggurat business already? |
| The OP and ED theme very nice. |
| This episode just debunked the Hand Shakers reference out of the window, that's for sure. Even though there are the throwbacks to Koyori and her holding room (no longer allowed to be in Ziggurat), seems that this time GoHands is taking a different approach with this, since this is 10 years after the events of Hand Shakers.

Yeap, caught me off guard too. OST is actually good for once. |

Break didn't age at all. Bind turned into ara ara milf. |

Lmfao so effing true, I hate that pedo and Koyori's twin too I think I saw Tazuna in the next episode preview tho |
| Akutagawa Koyori was so cute! glad to see her again!..the rest of the episode is meh...got bored and sleepy 3/5. |
 |
| Lol. The world of Handshaker seems to be so small by looking how previously character getting old already and now had a child really the true definition of a sequel. Like that Koyori, Hojou Masaru, dad of the W'z, and such. I think thats the only strongest point of this series, i believe. Because, yeah i really loved how they kept attach some important past story and intacted it nicely done. Still, there were too much mystery among everything. I guessed, i just needed to conquer this show first before did some fully judgement. Shall i? However, damn, that newly supporting character of this sequel had a mental dissaster. Their true intentions were a different matter than before, its good. But, for me its just, weird af, man. Thats only make me finding their reason that somehow were only bring them as a non existence to the story development. I mean, ah, lending the quote from the MC, the connections were unlinked, too much! Whatever. Let just continue again. The main quest had been added for the MC. Its to help the beautiful sensei, Koyori, out of her misery. Who could resist the temptation from her? I am fully aware with the difficult feeling of the MC, yeah really aware that shit. By the way on the way.... Why don't clear it first, yet? Thats it for now. |

| Why isn't Koyori a handshaker anymore? She and Tazuna won the last season and never lost their abilities. They should've been the ones to "meet God". Instead it's Nagaoka and Mayumi who met him now? Where did Tazuna disappear to? Does Yukiya think Koyori is free game because Tazuna vanished from existence? He already has Haruka. Since when could people steal the abilities of other Hand Shakers? That wasn't a detail in the original series either. I hope some reveals clears this up, and it isn't just retconning and altering shit for the hell of it. |
