Kind of dumb that they didn’t include Gun Devil’s death toll and the time frame for it. They showed what a threat the Gun Devil is. With the way they adapted it you just blinked and moved on to the next scene.

It's been quite a while since I've read the CSM arc and I thought that the Eternity Devil arc was an arc in the later half of the manga, but guess not. Teamed up with Himeno, it's a great mess to deal with, but this arc sure brings some nice things on table. Also, the ending song is quite good. For now, nothing can peak ED3

They're still doing a great job with this adaptation. They did Makima's sexy manipulation antics justice and really like how they did Himeno's ghost arm. Mappa is still going strong.

Would have been cool if they also included the deaths from other countries from the gun devil like in the manga but other than that its been a perfect episode 10/10

That ed is amazing they keep outdoing themselves each week with the visuals and it hasn't even been half of them yet


Agreed. I wish they didn't remove that.

Kobeni's visuals and the performance by her VA is so damn good. However, the real challenge for Mappa artists would be animating Kobeni's car.

Going with relatively unknown VAs was the best thing for this anime. Every voice sounds so fresh. Ending visuals were the best till now. Csm ending visuals getting this level of treatment, Mappa execs are really crazy about Fujimoto's works.

As someone whom begrudgingly read the manga after it was hyped to oblivion and back, I gotta say I forgot how horrible these early arcs are. Later on it gets decently good, or at least better than the early parts. But like this stuff right now is trash. Denji has got to be the most pea brained protagonist ever made. His sole motivation is sexy time of any capacity. Not even exclusively with Makima like we just saw. Dude doesn't even have any loyalty. As soon as Himeno mentioned tongue Denji folded and completely forgot about his promise with Makima. Dude is the literal definition of a caveman. Sees hot girl, falls head over heals for hot girl, completely forgets everything else. Its really dumb. Denji is absolutely the worst part of this show right now. Thank god for Aki, that dude saves this thing in the early days. He's like the only motivation I have for watching as the early arcs get adapted. Power gets better later too but even her right now is annoying. This is just a real slog and I'm pretty sure this first season won't get to anything good yet. Maybe a certain arc after this one but idk.
No shit he's a caveman, the dude was raised by the Yakuza and treated like trash his entire childhood & early teens without any form of socialization. The way he acts makes sense early on seeing as he's hitting prime puberty. Critiquing him this much early on while fanboying the most cookie cutter neketsu protagonist out there is straight up hilarious. You sound like someone that should just drop it and move on, you obviously torture yourself weekly to watch something that is mainstream.

Turns out touching Power's boobs ended up being underwhelming for Denji, but man he almost had a stroke after touching Makima's lol. They finally brought up the Gun Devil, and now Denji has found some motivation to have a more fulfilling erotic experience if he can keep his promise to Makima by killing Gun. It was great to get a glimpse into Aki's past and how the Gun Devil massacre affected him personally.

After the previous 2 action-heavy episodes, this one definitely slowed things down a bit, but it still felt like we got some decent story progression. Also, I love the direction of each episode and how certain parts really do feel like you're watching a movie. It's the attention to the little details like that, that really makes watching this feel like a totally different experience compared to the manga at times.

People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

So touching breast isn't as powerful as Denji thought but with Makima it might work better, now time to eliminate to next hardcore threat which is already hyped much, also Himeno's teasing ahaha, it's all sex-goal

This was a pretty funny episode considering how dark it got. Denji having brain failure every time he touched a woman was funny. The ending visuals are insane as usual, and I'm liking how they change them up each episode instead of keeping a single one for the whole season.

I quite enjoyed this episode compared to the prior 3. The animation looked quite fluid and refined this time around and didn't really feel rushed. We had an extensive introduction to Himeno and Kobeni, Power being Power, Aki starting to get used to Denji and Power and normie Arai (sorry). Anyways looking forward to next week's episode with the

I don’t care if Himeno is just “teasing” Denji. Isn’t she considered a pedophile if she offered a tongue kiss?

Best ep? not sure because the last ep was pretty good. The ecchi scenes in the first half with Powah and Makima was real good and The Gun Devil obliterating Aki's house and family was brutal. In the second half i liked seeing the other members of the squad, Himeno baaad as usual. I really liked the ost when they realised they were stuck in the building.
Quick Edit: Best ending yet!!

This mf denji is down so horrendously that everyone is able to manipulate him by offering him the most bare minimum shit Lmaoo. Titty touch, a kiss, etc. bro passed out from feeling a titty.

Makima is so painfully obviously sus it’s not even funny. She’s a classic manipulator who knows what other people want and how to get what she wants from them. Too bad no one around her is smart enough to see it

The boob grab scene just confirmed once and for all that Makima's voice is ludicrously terrible. I just had to mention it again, for the last time. I know I will get jumped by delusional people who defend it, claiming it's perfect for tricking people into believing she is not a manipulator (despite her never trying to trick anyone into thinking that, ever), but whatever.
