| Loving episode. I liked that couple and I was afraid that their son was killed, I'm a bit relieved that he isn't dead but it was still a sad moment when he said that their son killed someone. |
 |
| Even though this episode didn't really add that much in terms of overall development, it still held my attention the whole way through. It actually adds another touch of realism to the series, too, since it's actually showing Tenma and co in their travels rather than just showing up at their destination inbetween episodes. Them having to hitch hike makes sense given that they were thrown onto a random bus at the end of the last episode without really knowing where they were going. |
 It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether! It's an entirely different kind of flying. |
| personally i enjoy slow-paced shows, and i don't mind filler as long as it fleshes out the mcs. however i'm watching the sub and i can't help but find it pretty jarring when there are multilingual scenes and everything is in one language. i don't know if they did anything about this in the dub, and though i understand this is first and foremost a piece of media for a japanese audience, it's difficult for me to suspend disbelief and jut pretend they're all speaking different languages. |
im apollo ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ they/them pls  |
| Such a slow episode it was ok 3/5 and that was really weired that car's tank filled with that small gallon I kinda figure it out that old man knew that tenma was wanted but it was a relief that he didn't told the police about him |
| really enjoyable episode |
 |
| Damn, must be tough to be a former detective to have his child in prison... like this episode explained at the end he must be second guessing himself a lot... thank to heavens that he got an encounter with Tenma and cleared his mind... |

| Nothing special happening, just like usual Anxiety, he almost reported him I guess Am I missing something with the ending? |
"Signature removed"   |
| the plot is moving painfully slow |
 |
| My first drop. This anime just took too long to get to the point and I got bored. |
  |
| This was a good filler. The animation team certainly took a lot of effort to animate each and every intricate detail,even using the car handle bar to signal the turn. I like the policeman's decision to see his son, and forgive him. I thought for a second that the castle was the same place where Nina met Tenma, but I was wrong. And that dinner. I want to explore wine and european dishes sometime. |
 Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate. I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death. |
| >sorry we don’t speak german we’re english >continues to speak japanese >dieter as well it is implied that tenma speaks english to them, yet code switches in german with dieter. another implication to be figured out by the viewerz “Robert committed a crime, but he is not evil” “no one desires evil” |
| Lovely episode, as with the last two. This show is "sonder" in action. Every character has their own story, yet it feels like everything contributes to the whole. The episodic/slice-of-life nature contrasts beautifully with the main story and everything comes together nicely. |

| Tenma: *speaks Japanese* Elderly couple: Oh, sorry, we don't speak German! Only English. Tenma: *speaks Japanese* Elderly couple: Oh my god, this man speaks English too! Thank you so much! |
 |
| My guess is that Robert is Johan... |
| He who smiles in a crisis has found someone to blame. |
| Meaningful filler, I love it. Plot doesn't really advance, but really awesome to see more morals developed. |
 |
| Dang, Dr. Tenma can speak English too? Haha, I'm a bit jelly 'cause I can only speak English and Japanese, but German is one of the languages I want to be fluent in. Sheesh, Dr. Tenma is constantly put in stressful situations, but manages to get to the end and see the light! That old man saw his wanted picture at the police station and was like, "Naw, I'm not turning him in 'cause I have a strong feeling he's innocent" Alrighty, like, I know the viewer already knows Dr. Tenma is innocent, but the old man doesn't know for a fact. Not everyone in his position would've done the same thing |
| i loved the point of those episodes for showing that tenma is not bad person and people can see it, but this episode was kinda slow, except for the police scene i were actually bored. i still wonder though what make tenma going to the places and how he knows he needs to go there. |
| 20 episodes in and this show still hasn’t dissapointed me the slightest. I wouldn’t have expected at all that their son Robert is in prison for murder I guess the end of episode shows that they aren’t living the best time of their lives even after retirement. It’s really great too that Tenma uses his acts of kindness as kind of proof that he can’t be a serial killer. Very nice filler episode that I really can’t seem to dislike at all. |
I think they just draw old people pretty similarly |
| Is Robert Johan? Or are they completely unrelated |
 |
| Damn the old man figured it out, but didn't turn him in. I was waiting for the shoe to drop, you can't just have a nice country drive without some drama in this show. |
 |
| I loved this one. It's nice seeing some positivity for once but wow, I shouldn't be surprised since he's a former cop and all but that was surprising when he casually mentioned that tenma is wanted at the end. But I smiled when he said that tenma is innocent. Super awesome little episode overall. 5/5 |
 |
| nothing's about Johan for this ep. but overall it is still good and enjoyable. I love how the man trusted Tenma |
| a Filler?! I still liked it!! |
Ston3_FreeN7 said: Yonatay said: Walking all that way, he's seriously too nice for his own good :) Yet his "niceness" makes him a great contrast to the morally lacking characters in the story. Yes, its like he is deliberately trying to neutralize the badness with his and only his actions. |
| aaaa most boring episode so far |
| Even though its kind of a filler episode, still felt emotional to me with the old guy wanting once again, after the son became a murderer, trusting his intuition and see if his son Robert is evil |
 |
| More of a chill episode. I thought Robert had died, but I guessed wrong. A lot of people see the good in Tenma and not ratting him out. |

| 5/5 episode but this episode this episode looked like yet another filler. |
| what a beautiful episode, has got to be my favorite so far. i personally love these "fillers", love seeing minor characters share their thoughts about our protag, its validating in a sense. |
Aw hell naw. Ain't no way Britoids are in my Asian cartoons set in Germany 🤢🤢🤢🤢 |
 |
| I'll be honest and say I fell asleep |
| Every person they meet has their own problems and aspects that bring them to life, they achieved something most present anime cannot even come close to. |
| So tense, this atmosphere kinda hit me hard since I live in Denmark and it can be so isolated and lonely. |
| Incredible these last 2 episodes |
