I'm still not very sure about all this vampire thing, isn't like this is not going well with the past seasons? It's like a strange way with a odd direction.

I have to agree with some comments here, this is the best season of BSD by far. And to think i almost drop this series because i found S1 boring AF.

So much tension, i can't predict what is going to happen.

Also the girl there hide with the Vampire isn't?

Oh wow, that was a surprise and another surprise on top of it.

Things are not going well for anyone here except the Decay of Angels Bad guy!

My guess is the witness hid herself inside Bram's coffin. Yes?

Is the rest of the season going to consists in Fukuchi finishing off a character after another? It's getting a bit repetitive.
my man u watch saint seiya

but nah if the pacing is right
next ep ends with farm dude vs the remaining hunt dog ending
then 2 or maybe 1 and a half ep of chuuya and dazai vs fyodor
then after that theyll be caught up and idk wtf theyll do



So embarrased with Tensura fans and the fandom, how have we degraded

SS is a zombie franchise, sadly.
Will be interesting to see what they will pull for the last episodes if this catches the manga mid season.

All this shit with vampires and mind-control abilities coming out of absolutely nowhere without any foreshadowing is just fucking tedious now, honestly. As is the fact that we're forced to watch Fukuchi cheat his way through a fight scene every episode, while the show tries to pretend there's any stakes to it whatsoever and that there's even the tiniest chance of him losing.

This is just a season of bad writing, falling into so many of the worst possible shounen traps and then just doubling-down on it at every turn.

Random agency related girl passing by the airport, interacting with the Dogs, suddenly becoming the upper hand in Jouno's plan, its kind weird. I hope its some kind of plan from Ranpo from the begining.

I’m curious about Fukuchi’s katana, how far can it rewind to the past? Also, why didn’t he just rewind nonstop in the end until he finds the girls secretly taking a photo of him?

Agreed, a lot of new random things cropped up this season and we're kind of just supposed to accept it and play along with what ever little setup they're giving us. Also annoyed that they surprised us with how "humane" Jouno is, despite repeatedly showing us how much of a heartless psychopath he is. Still, it's pretty enjoyable to watch even though I don't know what's going on half the time.

I'm glad that I watched the movie beforehand so I know who that girl is. Still, her role in this episode was pretty...coincidental. Lucky for him to bump into someone who knows and supports the Agency, when almost everyone is against them.

Ah yes, the coffin is obviously the best place to hide in.

Another episode another character who tries and fails to kill Fukuchi. Although this time Fukuchi was a lot more prepared.

The ending was actually pretty intense.

juono prefers being stabbed in the arse, making it clear who is the bottom in his relationship with long sword kun.

honorary seat left empty for Dozai.


cringe aya makes lame comeback. she probably dead by now. dont see any way she can escape, especially with that deadly vampire

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.

A good prep episode for the next one with one elephant-in-the-room major question left unanswered:

Why on Earth didn't the Military Police Intelligence use that recording from the previous episode as evidence to expose Fukuchi into the entire world?

Secrecy or "national security", due to them being intelligence, does not wash, since the hazard is global, not local.

Nor being turned into vampires by Bram (as Fukuchi said he would do), since they could easily send the recording right away, before Bram's vampires reached them.

A single piece of solid evidence, with Fukuchi spilling out everything, is far more effective than a million arguments by the Special Operations Division trying to "convince" world leaders or a thousand eye witnesses (like that girl).

I know this is a plot device (as are many plot holes) to move the story forward, raise the stakes etc, but it is still too... crude to not even address at all in this episode (and e.g. conjure some excuse explaining it away).

Sweeping major plot points under the rug does not make (most? many?) viewers stop thinking... 😩

Well it's obvious that he's going to lose at some point but damn his plot armour is annoying.
Oh and the girl probably just ran back to the room when he opened the door.

Gramps' sword is so unfair. It's getting a bit tiring to see him use it like a cheat code. The suspense scene with the girl at the end was great, though!

We got to see more of Jonos character this episode. I remember hating Jono but now he actually seems pretty cool sadly he lost to Fukuchi and im really starting to believe hes invincible. The little girl that Kunikida met coming back this episode and possibly having a bigger influence this season is really nice to see too.
