This episode was just unpleasant. And out of place. Or I dunno, going from murder and suicide to death by slipping on soap doesn't flow well.

Also, I've yet to point this out, but I'm not entirely sure how death in this show works. The characters' bodily functions still seem to work, so I dunno.

How can arbiters judge human souls if they don't understand human emotions and virtues like selflessness or whatever?

How do bodily functions work after death?


Ginti is pretty funny though, I like him more than Decim. I want more Nona though.

As for this episode, not a fan. I'm not against all fanservice, Prison School was the best at this but this episode was just bad. 2/5.

This show's ability to switch fairly seamlessly between decent comedy and grim, sad storytelling is quite remarkable. I really enjoyed Ginti and Mayu getting some time to shine, although Memine was definitely the star of this episode.

Hands down, one of the best episodes of anime I've watched. This episode puts so many Shoujo Romances to shame without even getting into the Romance side. 10/10 lol

The only thing that bugs me is that the deads always come in pair of male and female so far.However, that's not the case in Death Billiards.

Breath of fresh air.
Was looking forward to it and did not disappoint, that said I was hoping we would see their destiny, it really sucked how they died, Mayu death was really retarded though.

Wanted to see if both were gonna be reborn or not, I think they are since the dude did show remorse and didn't let her go, definitely doesn't deserve the void.
We all make mistakes and he was suffering from his, before his death.

Ginti was really cold, I mean this was the most aggressive game thus far, Decim certainly is more tame in the way he tests the subjects.

despite being a funnier, brighter episode, i really like the discussion there— about idol culture and those things. i mean, mayu was a huge fan of harada to the extent she was willing to Die for him; and the fact that he was about to push her when she announced she would "sacrifice" herself… that moment was kind of breathtaking. i don't think mayu would ever think that harada would do something like that do her — kill her, basically —, and in the beginning he thought something negative about her appearance, “i would rather play with someone prettier” or something like that, and i think all of these scenes show that sometimes we idolize people but we will never know who they really are. i'm not saying every idol or public figure are liars, but obviously they don't show everything to the public— their fans love the image that is being shown to them. and sometimes that's not even close to reality.
i understand that idols can bring a lot of joy to fans’ lives, and it's very nice to be a fan of someone and listen to their songs and feel happy consuming their content, but it's not okay for fans to put idols above them because they “help”; there's no one more worthy of living than the other, so i think this episode brings a good reflection about this topic.
but i also like how harada reacted to mayu’s “sacrifice”, he held her and was like “there wouldn't be idols without fans and their support” and then thought about how he had forgotten this… and of course there were the case of the fan that committed suicide… i think that his thoughts and emotions showed me that he wasn't shallow and i enjoyed that. idols also have to deal with a lot of pressure and harassment, so i think sometimes they lose track.
anyways, i enjoyed seeing ginti judgment as well, and the post credit scene! this episode balances intensity and comedy very well.

Since I recognized Harada's seiyuu to be the one who voiced Okabe Rintaro in Steins;Gate, that added a layer of humor. Especially when he was desperately yelling to Mayu: "I won't go through that again!... It's because of you, Mayu-chan!". I half expected him to say Mayuri. That was hilarious just on account of casting.

This episode was much more lighthearted and comedic than the rest, but they still managed through in a little gut punch near the end.

Liked the whole idea of the fan and idol relationship (what they are expected to be like vs what they are actually like).

This was totally funny XD!!! Specially Ghinty (maybe).

The girl was totally careless and she was a pervert also.
The boy also wasn't enough good. But I like at least he kept behaving well to her. But as the boys memory returned and what I saw I think he deserved that kind of death. I don't care now where he goes.



Ghinty (maybe) is cooler than Decum.

WHAT THE HELL? that was hilarious. looks like ginti isn't as "proper" on doing his job, he seems pretty human too. that was a really nice episode, the girl was a normal high schooler thats an idol group fan, the guy was a dick but i changed my perspective on him at the end. scene after the op was hilarious too, clavis, decim, black haired girl, ginti and mayu watching harada perform that was gold

how mayu wasn't effected on the fact that she died was also pretty funny, the next episode will definitely not be as cheerful as this one so im preparing myself. also wonder what the judgement will be

Mayu and Harada are best couple. So cute. They don't even give a shit about death. They are the only characters I root for in this fucked up show. Glad the organizer got BURNED.

And Kana jumping was not Harada's fault. Bitch should have known that guy was a womaniser and stuff. BTW, advice to everyone: someone will break up with you. You are not special.

Kana's sister was another piece of shit. Hope she rots in hell.


I'm not trying to put blame on the victim Kana but her reaction to the breakup was kinda bizarre (although I've never been in a relationship yet so maybe I don't understand why she felt the way she did after the breakup). I agree with your point that she should have been aware that dating a popular idol like Harada comes with its consequences, and I hate to be mean about it, guys like him will break up with a girl for any reason at all. It seemed like he wasn't into the relationship as much as she was and perhaps he wanted to break up in a gentle manner. She took it the wrong way and killed herself as a result. HAD he been cheating (there were no flashbacks implying he had cheated or was caught doing so, at least none that I remember) on Kana, I think his death is deserved.

And as for Kana's sister, how the hell did she manage to get a bomb into the hotel, let alone his hotel room? And surely after his death, because he's an idol, there would be an investigation into his death, she would be caught and put in prison. Jeez, talk about throwing your whole life away.

Sure, she can blame her sister's death on Harada but honestly she should have checked on her sister after the breakup before she even decided to kill herself. I'm just theorizing but if Kana had told her before her suicide that he DID cheat on her, I still think his death is deserved. Although during the "game", Harada seemed remorseful about Kana's death so who knows? ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯

ooh a cool episode!
it started off kinda mixed between nice and dark, then i thought it was going to become really dark and then at the end it was actually pretty funny :D

and we got to see how ginti does things his own way :o twister was a bit unexpected but i could feel the exhaustion both of them had reached probably

anyways, who got reincarnated and who got sent to void? i feel like both of them could get reincarnated as they both acted nicely at the end of the game

well, gonna read the posts in this thread now to see what others think!

Kana killing herself is not harada's fault, he broke up with her already, and even if he was cheating, it was her choice to do what she did. The sister is at wrong. Would be interesting if the sister dies and we get to see her with Decim lol

With episode 2 being exposition to explain the unusual premise, episode 3 being sugar, episode 5 not actually including any newly-deceased people, and epsiode 6 being goofy, this series has reached its mid-point with only two "normal" episodes. I don't like that. I'm sure the last episode or two will concern the black-haired-woman so the main premise of the deceased being judged is going under-used.

well this was one hell of a ride. for one this episode took place in ginti's bar which is a pretty cool contrast compared to decim's. for one it's like a traditional japanese theme, and it has a warmer color scheme.

this had quite a bit of fan service that was sorta on the hilarious side such as the idol suddenly stripping off his clothes to move while frozen? damn okay.

we didn't see mayu nor the idol guy (i forgot his name lmao) be sent down the elevators. i mean i'm not necessarily surprised that mayu wasn't considering that we see her in the intro. i believe ginti mentioned that she wasn't possibly human?

idk if the spikes on the bottom were always fake or it's because mayu wasn't human and therefore wasn't affected by them. it wasn't clarified so i wasn't sure.

either way this was a decent episode. it was pretty fascinating to see the idol fall for mayu when in the beginning he clearly didnt gaf about her. pretty good episode.

It was more interesting than I expected. I thought it was cute how the girls actually met the idol they loved and played games with them, how she talked about how hard she loved her idol, and how she chose to fall into the hole herself.

What was that? Ok, it was a wonderful fanservice episode. I think this is the calm before the storm, BUT it was quite refreshing watching a silly episode like this, I have already tissues for the next ep. For the moment C.H.A, C.H.A, C.H.A!
Btw is it only me or Cross Heart Attack is similar to Sheer Heart Attack of Killer Queen from JJBA
