What shounen power up do u mean? I dont see any |
| oh my christ mikey is such a fucking badass i kinda want him to beat the shit out of the other gang leaders there now for writing him off lmao |
 |
| A pretty good episode in general, I'd say! Act 1 of the fight was chaotic as expected, Takemitchy getting Chifuyu's support to keep him grounded and then motivating the rest of Toman was pretty good. the voice acting and pacing were great. |

DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Damn, the feud between Valhalla and Toman really reaches its peak during this Halloween day battle. It's crazy how much this escalated to get Baji. Draken and Kazutora got major balls to represent their group. And tbh, this arc may be the most intense one in the show so far. Draken really has proved himself as a loyal friend while Kazutora shows he isn't afraid of anything or anyone. How do you know the exact timing to make an anime episode discussion bro ...do you know the timings of each anime ? |
 |
| Oh man, Mikey managed to get a hit on Kazutora even while be restrained by two other people, and it will definitely be interesting to see if Mikey ends up killing or not killing Kazutora |
| Deem bro. What was that about Takemichi, it surprises me that after that he gave everyone a battle voice, really gorgeous. What I liked most was the phase from the middle of the episode to the end when Mikey was fighting with Kazutora and his other two subordinates, too cool. I can't wait for the next episode with the end of the fight. |
| Did you guys feel like the animation wasn't at the same level as the other episodes? I know how difficult is it to deal with deadlines and production committees though, so I hope the animators are feeling ok and are not overwhelmed by work 🙏. |
 |
| WHAT THE FUCK HAHAHAHA I thought that this anime was terrible but this is crossing the line of intellectual offenses. How the fuck someone would survive being attacked like that? Is Mikey a fucking super hero now? Did we all see that he got like 20 straight blows to the head? Im not even going to talk about the slideshow, this was the most pathetic excuse of badassery that I have seen in a long time justasadguy said: Did you guys feel like the animation wasn't at the same level as the other episodes?

The animation of this anime is always mediocre. It just shows here because fights are more taxing to animate since they require more motion of the body and the camera, but if you see that an anime use the same shots all the time and the same panning effect then the animation is not that good to start with. You dont need Ufotable, Mappa, Shaft or Kyoani levels of animation to have a good product, but this is not a good product |

| LOL Mikey went straight up Super Saiyan there at the end. Nice. Kazutora done fucked up. |
| Quality Queen. |
| I get that they've been adapting lots of chapters but this arc still feels so stretched out... Is the source manga just incredibly slow? |
| Quality Queen. |
| Whew, I guess I had a bit of a higher expectation for this episode. The animation was rough, the angles were uninspiring and while I know why, half of the episode was a dust storm lol It got the job done and they covered a number of chapters so still looking forward to next week. |
The World Suffused with Sound.  |
TweedleDane said: who? no one got stronger by screaming louder though :/screaming louder and getting stronger ? |
| I liked this for the most part, really fun gangfight. The leaders are all a bit overpowered which is fun but also not. I think what most of them lack is honor, while the underlings do proper fist fights. There is none when the leaders play underhanded. Takemichi battle cry lol Who actually needs Hanma? He is just there to buy time. Kazutora is such a coward, running away instead of fighting. lol and with a steel pipe when the opponent can't move, does he want to go to jail again already? Otherwise, he seems to be super weak. Mikey quickly recovered from probably weak hits and gave everyone what they deserved. Quite understandable that he killed Kazutora in a different timeline. Can Takemichi stop him? probably should just call the police to stop everything. |

| oh great! Mikey is beyond pissed! so awesome for Draken to take down most of the lackeys! Takemitchy for the Battle Cry lolz!!! 5/5. |

CasualJay14 said: Takemichi really needs to learn how to fight I’m tired of seeing him getting beat like a rag doll in almost every episode. That's the point of his character, I would actually be disappointed if they made Tackymichi someone on the same level of skill as the other characters |
 |
| got to see the angry/sad side of mikey He wasn't even hitting kazutora since he thought of him as a brother but kazutora got mikey angry and now Didn't got to see baji or kisaki in this ep |
| Mikey is too OP lol. Baji didn't even show up in this episode but I expect great things later! |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 |
ttcchen said: eeh , takemitch did ? He was getting batted around , until he shouted and then just started decking the enemies right across the field .

And please dont come up with something like "Oh well that was just him getting his shit together . he screamed because he felt motivated again and thats why he stood his ground blah blah blah" . It doesnt excuse the fact that it is literally a convinient trope and asspull that has been around for too long , and is just tiring to see. Its a very uninspired plot device . |
| Honestly, was this episode supposed to be comedy? I am pretty sure that this episide's the funniest one in this year. |
| If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time. Watch more movies, please. Perhaps, this is hell. |
| bullshit kiddy fight episode and yet ppl are hyped for this arc to be animated? utterly garbage. |
PurpleRequiem said: RSin95 said: Takemichi annoyed me way too much this episode. He knows what Mikey is going to go crazy and kill Kazutora, which will act as the trigger for him to go to the dark side, yet he does nothing to create even a small change in that result. And he doesn't go and subtly protect Baji either. His goal is to CHANGE the events that happen, not fight in this stupid battle. Literally what is the point of coming back, if you're not actively trying to change the events? He is 26, but has the cognitive deduction of a middle schooler still. He knows the triggers, and yet actively doesn't do anything to stop them. Exactly, you’d think this man was sheltered his whole life or some shit. He’s not a convincing 26 year old mentally and heck even physically lmao. I just know this will be one of those animes I’ll look back in a few years and question why I even continued watching. He's pretty much sheltered his whole life tho. What do you think he was doing as a 26 years old? Did you watch the anime? He was just rotting in his apartment saying sorry to everyone and just running away from everything because of the trauma of abuse during middle school. Even tho he's getting better by going back into time. He's still experiencing fucked up shit each time he finally made progress. Like how his gf and best friend died right in his eyes. Those are really traumatizing events that you wouldn't understand. Anyone who experiences traumatizing events could be reduced to a child in tears. |
TweedleDane said: he's already had a good punch in him, as shown in episode 1 when he punched the guy who harassed Naoto. He's just terrified of the situation cause he's faced with hundreds of people braeling its total chaos so he's afraid to fight but that doesn't mean he can't. Also he didn't scream to get this courage. He got it from his buddy chifuyu and remembering the lives he has to save.ttcchen said: eeh , takemitch did ?

Bro, wait until you learn about morale in wars. You'd probably think morale is some stupid convenient powerup trope lul. Fact is morale makes a difference. A huge difference. |
| The animation and bad character models make me cry. I'm in love with the characters but it's hard to be invested in the drama and action when it's so poorly executed. I want to cheer, cry, laugh, and be gripped by what's going on, especially because the manga is praised for its storytelling, and suspense. But I feel muted emotions while watching the anime because things are so wonky and stiff in the visuals and pacing. |

Shinuki_n_Reborn said: kkkkk You're just making up your own version of what happened, you literally just explained in the sarcastic part, he got his shit together, a bit fired up and punched some dudes in the face, what happened next? he got beat up and that's it, Takemichi didn't actually defeated anyone, you're trying to make it sounds like he screamed "TOMAAAAN!!!!" and defeated half of Valhala by the power of screaming, this isn't giving a excuse, just rationally explaining what happened, which isn't that hard to understand at all. ttcchen said: he's already had a good punch in him, as shown in episode 1 when he punched the guy who harassed Naoto.

Also he didn't scream to get this courage. He got it from his buddy chifuyu and remembering the lives he has to save. i literally said that is an overused cliche and has been used a plot device for way too long in way too many animes . Thus why i called it uninspired . All these arguements you lads are giving ? all this "raising morale" and "wanting to save lives " and all ? They might be true . But again that doesnt change the fact that it is an overused cliche and trope , and is just a sign of cheap writing . Emotional powerups are not a good way to strengthen your character . he's already had a good punch in him, as shown in episode 1 when he punched the guy who harassed Naoto. First off, takemitchy punched that dude unawares . secondly , that dude is a stick compared to the fighters of valhalla he is facing right now . And he is facing them head on .Lets also not forget that they are much bigger and older than him. Yet he still decked 2 of the fighters with single punches each . Shinuki_n_Reborn said: punched some dudes in the face, what happened next? he got beat up and that's it, Takemichi didn't actually defeated anyone, . 7:30 to 7:48 he punched 2 guys and they went flying . 8:04 he is totally surrounded , with chifuyu busy fighting behind him . Yet he still managed to get out of that . I will say this . he was shown to have good endurance , so that gives him a slight egde on standing longer . But its still pretty convenient on how he wriggles through it all and also took 2 of them out . Bro, wait until you learn about morale in wars. You'd probably think morale is some stupid convenient powerup trope lul. Fact is morale makes a difference. A huge difference. I do know about morale , and i do know that they sometimes help to cover up fear and give fighters the adrenaline rush they need . But raise in morale can only do so much . It is more of a rejuvenation than a power up . a boy that isnt physically capable of breaking a rock wont be able to break one , even if he had a higher morale than anyone else . And yes , if the story is utilising out of nowhere strength for plot convenience , Then that is a "stupid convenient powerup trope" and is a sign of cheap writing. |

| Damn, coming from the manga, this episode was a huge disappointment from a production standpoint, you can see that the budget ran out, which is a shame. Whining aside, they still adapted the manga truthfully which I appreciate. |
| yo |
| Hmm, that wasn't as awesome as I thought it would be - felt like it dragged a bit and the fight scenes weren't actually that great tbh. I dunno why but I just can't hate Kazutora; He's insane and has done some awful things but there is something that makes me root for him and hope they he can reconcile with Toman |

Obviously anime will exaggerate things. Are you forgetting that Mikey was a tiny kid who happened to knock people out with one kick twice his size? Not to mention that Mikey got hit by a pipe multiple times in the head and he's not even dead lmao. This is the kind of anime you're watching here and yet you're focusing so much on the MC just simply having the morale to punch someone. You're taking things way too seriously and it's stupid. Like, just drop the anime already if it bothers you so much. No one wants to hear your crying. |
