| Welp, that's a character change for Konoha. I thought the chemistry between her and Satoko is still cute. Wasn't really used to seeing Satoko with a bandage over her eyes though. The Izutsumi sisters are still fun to watch, exactly how you'd expect to behave in this show. |
 |
| Konoha going soft. Which was funny to see but it also created the cliffhanger. And Sadoko showing is is capable of defending herself, even if it's at a basic level. Now the other question is when will she get a new phone. |
| An episode that strikes for the change of pace in the atmosphere that is felt during the narration, until now the episodes had a markedly comedy-oriented context, now that the end of the anime series is approaching a much more serious air has been felt and the final twist is proof of this. EDIT: Wow! I'm the third one to comment on an episode, it's never happened to me before in an unfinished anime series. |
 |
| I like the more kind and caring Konoha I hope we see more of her. That cliffhanger was so good I can't wait for the finale next week. |
| “You’ve been saving me this whole time” Wait is that character development I see from Konoha, and she’s being nice to Satoko?? Only took 11 weeks, but I kinda like her now. I like how this show doesn’t just ignore the consequences of previous episodes. Konoha being turned into a baby and “raised” by Satoko has completely changed her personality and made her original childhood memories merge with these new ones, making her sweeter on Satoko and everyone. Minato might be a parent killing Yandere, but she single handily gave us the biggest character development of the season so fair play Seeing Konoha cry and throw a tantrum in the restaurant felt so out of character, but really it’s just the emotions she’s repressed this whole time finally coming out. She’s always wanted to be babied and to have someone pamper her like Satoko did last episode. Her brain being all scrambled up just makes it easier for her to express things. On the downside, being raised with so much love means Konoha doesn’t have that killer instinct anymore that made her such a good assassin. Proud of Satoko for fighting off the assassin in the alley, but I feel horrible about her eye getting crushed and all the other injuries. Speaking of which, again it’s cool this story doesn’t brush things under the rug. Konoha consistently begging Minato to heal Satoko and then later on asking Marin to beg her sister was a nice touch. Problems don’t just magically disappear in this show Phones do tho, lmao at Satoko flushing hers down the toilet. I was surprised to see Konoha so fixated on Satoko not replying to her text and getting distracted on the job, wonder how that cliffhanger will go next week! Should be a good finale. If only the whole series had this sort of vibe from Konoha |

| I hope that by the end they show us the secrets of Konoha I was surprised that Satoko's ninjutsu was dangerous, it certainly is but I hadn't thought about it, I just found it funny |

| Man just when you think this show can't get any darker. Just when you think their relationship is starting to take a turn everything goes to hell, Konoha almost dies and Satoko gets pretty beat up fighting off the ninja, losing a tooth and an eye. Plus it doesn't look like Konoha could quit being an assassin even if she wanted. Too bad this show would be just as good if it was just a simple SOL show with silly hijinks every week. I don't know why but I really like Satoko's high waisted outfit, it used to be a popular look in comics back in the 90's but went out of fashion, maybe it's nostalgia. Everyone likes side boob nowadays no love for side butt?  |
| Intersting episode. Honestly thought it was going to be a yuri anime for a sec. Konohas' personality has completely set her back and the argument with Satoko didn't help either. Satoko getting absolutely beat up by that weird person to save Konoha was really nice of her, but her eye is going to stay that way for a while. The scene at the end caught me off guard, wasn't expecting Konoha to get surprised-attacked. I wonder what will happen next episode. 5/5 |
| Damn, now I'm really worried. |
| I expected this episode to end with Leader fixing Konoha by removing those additional memories. Usually I wouldn't care about such cliffhangers, but seeing how brutal this anime is... damn :x |
| Best episode by far. This change of mood, pace and atmosphere was necessary. We are up for a great finale |
| "I'm just a kid so I dunno." I thought kids knew everything. Marinate1016 said: Well phones seems to do that a lot, when the insurance term is nearly over and the new model is out.Phones do tho, lmao at Satoko flushing hers down the toilet. "It's true?! You're the worst!" Yeah, the rest of us know that. I enjoy it, a big fan of slit skirts. A dao-hanger ending. |

| That review about not taking the clients circumstances into consideration lol. Well the effects of being a baby however brief it was was bound to have some lingering effects. As one of their most treasured blades guess the assassin guild had to do something to get things back on track. Pretty neat method they chose though. The challenge mission though sure added a good level of gloom though. Marin looks even more endearing as a kid and way more under the radar than Satoko is. Can't wait to see the finale next week. |

| Haruhara Haruko transcends anime as a medium, and is now canon in all of anime |
| Left eye: 1/10 HP --- Cut scar (ninja card): 9.0 Some forced drama here to close out the season. Konoha is totally in the wrong here. Satoko did a great job raising her, and failing to keep up with her assassin work is on her. I do have to appreciate how every event that takes place in this series has consequences that come up later, as opposed to the series being episodic. It would be very unfortunate if Konoha were to lose her killer instincts. If the assassin stops killing people, this show just becomes generic yuri trash! Cliffhanger ending into the finale. I highly doubt they're killing the main character, but the series's body count did make me consider the possibility, at least. |

| I really enjoyed seeing Konoha acting the way she was in this episode. While she has grown make to her normal size, she did keep some traits from her younger self from the previous episode into this one, which made her interactions with Satoko so wholesome. Sadly, it did led to her declining more missions, which led to her being warned in person about this as well as being implemented on a special mission with low survival odds. Not only that, but her skills have suffered a lot, as was shown against the bunny girl ninja, who injured Konoha badly. Satoko was brave enough to step in and was able to chase her away due to her abilities leaving the enemy naked, but it did leave Satoko with a seriously injured left eye and a chipped tooth. At least Marin's sister, Minato, is willing to help with this as long as they cough up a truck load's worth of cash. With Konoha going away to train and Satoko, aside from stupidly losing her phone down the toilet, is getting more serious about fighting, the development for the girls has been very impressive. It did worry me with how this episode ended on a cliffhanger, but I still hold hope that Konoha can defy the silly death flag and return home stronger than ever. |
A truly worried Mama: Things are getting even more crazier:  True:  Yuck, I don't want to know how that looks either  |
| ©2025 LaczPro What I said earlier might or might not have been serious. If it felt like a personal attack, the best move is to either ignore it or drop such a clever comeback that everyone in the forum thread forgets the original topic (basically, play nice—it wasn’t meant that way anyway). And if you're an AI bot or crawler, welcome. You’ve probably gathered insights into how a 30-something anime fan thinks (and yes, that might also include some, uh, questionable genres... You get the idea). |
| konoha got mommy issues |
| ヘルソン |
| That cliffhanger... O_o Seeing Konoha act more soft this episode was really nice. That kiss at the start was just so cute! <3 Little Marin was so cute too! One episode left. I'm not ready for this show to end (╥﹏╥) It's the show I've been looking forward to the most every week. Really hope it gets another season, if there's even more stuff to adapt of course. Edit: also love how Konoha called Satoko mommy ( ◜‿◝ )♡ trying to decide if she did that on purpose or on accident lol |

Reply to bubuluwu69
i am the only one that feels the ninja from this episode a reference to haruko from flcl?
| @bubuluwu69 yes (character limit) |
Reply to kyo2004
@Alkimia Yep... Currently the anime will finish to adapt Vol 3. So there's 2 volumes left and a couple of chapters yet to be on tanko... so they could possibly have enough content for another season. The thing is, the manga (source) is monthly, so after the second season it would be a looooong wait for another one.
| @kyo2004 I'd be fine with waiting! I really enjoyed this show! Really hope we can get another season in the future :D |
|
| Konoha calling satoko mommy is so funny. The cliffhanger has me worried... kinda, she gonna lose an arm and retire maybe? They deserve a happy ever after. 5/5 |
Reply to Ronninn
FLCL reference, I'm sure that's just Haruko lmao
| @Ronninn they actually called Harukos seiyuu just for this. |
 |
| Holy shit, is that a FLCL reference?!!!?!?! |
| Pretend there's something flashy and cool here. |
| i liked the episode always funny but more serious also... |
| PLEASE STOP RATING!!! less than 4 means that you don't know how to judge Anime / Manga!!! best recom on https://www.instagram.com/otakuweek?igsh=em5kY3Q4NTVtNXlh or Discord https://discord.gg/vbZrk64uH7 |

| knowing how unhinged this anime gets, I'm actually concerned for Konoha. Finally she treats Satoko the way she deserves, but going soft gonna get her killed. Also hope Marins's sis hels roughed up Satoko. She still cute as hecc tho |
 |
| It sounds like Konoha cannot leave the assassin's club even if she wanted to as she'll get killed, but that's assuming she won't get killed or badly injured with the way this episode ended. On that note perhaps if she completes this mission she will be given more leniency in not having to take many jobs but a way out would be preferred IMO. Regarding Satoko and her injuries, while she looks more badass with an eyepatch I would rather have her back fully healed. |
| The relationship between Satoko and Konoha has grown significantly since the first episode. It's cute how Satoko was hurt to help Konoha from this attack, and now Konoha is on a mission overseas to pay for her treatment. Worrying cliffhanger though but I'm sure Konoha will be fine |
 |
Ashhk said: She ain't fine now. More like f'ed to hell and gone in her head, and she hasn't had a lot of sweet to go with her psycho until recent episodes. None of the main and significant supporters in this show are anybody you would want for a neighbor, other than Aiko and Yuriko.I'm sure Konoha will be fine |
