So they're the descendants of Lupin and Holmes and therefore they have to hunt each other? Nice use of history there, but it doesn't make sense really.

Riko trying to seduce him was pretty nice, but in the end she's a total bitch! Kinji could have just done something in the end. He had the knife on her throat for goodness sakes! -_-

Kinji could have known there was something wrong with the waitress judging her by her behavior since she didn't wait for him when closing the door and she was back way to fast.
This is pretty much till as far as i read the manga and Riko being the criminal didn't come as a surprise i wonder how she got an the plane faster then Kinji tho.
I am also wondering to how much truth there is behind Riko's words there seems to be some things that don't add up and it's still to early for the main villain to show up.

And Riko's seduction was pretty nice and interesting to see that Kinji didn't fall for it.

Aria was surprisingly cute being afraid for lightning.
And nice of Kinji to comfort her.
I wonder what will happen next with this major cliffhanger which seems to suggest that Kinji will come in his Hysteria mode again.

P.S.
Since when is the European Union a criminal organization?

For you guys who wonder why Kinji stopped at Riko's throat:
It wasn't mentioned in the anime, but according to Butei Charter Article 9, Butei cannot kill, regardless of circumstances. So that was the best he can do.

And about descendants of famous people, you'll see more. LOTS of them.

There are many ways but fast transportation such as a helicopter would do. In fact a real thief can be as bad ass as a spy or special forces agent.
She simply drove there. It was mentioned in the LN.

Oosran is picking a fight with Aria fans. Oosran get your ass over in the hate club and we will settle this in the future there. I can assure Aria is way better than your Taiga or Louise but anyways. Are you a Rie hater?

Riko is mad and shot Aria at the end, the fight reminded me of DBZ except with guns and knives instead of fists and energy blasts and was really good. I think we get both a yandere and a yangire with Riko.
A true villain can have the best poker faces in the world. Riko is just another prime example. I for one am damn happy I never got trolled since that already happened in the manga. I was just piling up my rage until this episode. I knew it was all Riko grinding my teeth. I knew it but could not do anything because it would spoiler what happened in this episode. I just wish was there was something done about her. Guess there may not be till some time seeing as she is the main villain of all this.


Or so you think for more info PM me and i can link you to where to find the novel that its all based on anyway yeah great episode few differences from how it happend in hte novel but still they are sticking close enough to it to not bother me to much i was interested in how they were going to do Rikos hair it came out alright but again was described i little diff in the novel all in all this epiode was pretty good hope they dont censor the next one to heavly well anyway til next time

Technically Kinji can have junior Arias and junior Riko but you know there is a rivalry going on between the 2 so I am all for Aria x Kinji. Also how far do you think they will get before series ends. Maybe the EU's greatest boss?

Kinji was stalking. And Riko talking about a 'Riko route' lol. And that wink of Kinji was fun too.
I ignored Riko this whole anime a bit until the 2nd half of this episode. I really didn't expect her to be the villain. What I think is weird, is that they fought against the main enemy in the 4th episode, in most shows it's the last fight. I expect more enemies to appear.
And also, EU? I assume it's not the European Union, but it is the same abbreviation. J.C. Staff is conspiring against Europe?

And you all were talking about Kinji's brother and used a lot of spoilers, so now I am sure he's alive even though I didn't open them. (please don't answer this last sentence)

Don't worry, most of these people's descendants joins the so-called "Kinji's party". They are protagonists.

I do think Riko is quite psychotic, but actually she's just looking to finish Aria fair and square for the sake of her own pride. If she just want to kill Aria, there are so many chances for her to do so.

For the EU, the case is closed in Vol.5. Seeing that they used 5 episodes for Vol.1 makes me think that the best they can do with 12 episodes is finishing Vol.3. (Riko's circumstances resolved) Because Vol.4 ended at the cliffhanger.

And for the pair, right now I'm all in for Reki x Kinji because of this big spoiler:

This episode made me love Riko even more, I think its a bad thing that I was happy when Riko shot Aria, and laughed maniacally... yet we all know Aria ain't dead :I ..main characters never die in the 4th episode (unless they want to make some odd twist then yeah..)

Riko's obviously the only good character on the show so far (not counting Kinji in his Hysteria mode, but I don't think that's ever going to show up at a "proper" moment) and now that she's been revealed to be a villain, she's not going to be here for a lot longer. That being said, 3/5 for the episode. It was a lot better than the last 3, but that isn't saying much, considering the "quality" of the series so far.

What. The. Fuck. Did. I. Just. Watch? Holmes? Lupin? Really? Really? REALLY? And then.... GUNKATA FIGHTS? What? And then.... MAGICAL HAIR OH BAH GAWD. So Aria gets shot up at pretty much point blank range but doesn't go down but only at the oh so plot critical moment at the very end. The only thing saving this terrible show is the completely outlandish shit they pull out of their asses during the fights.

Goddamn. I'm gonna have to check out the LN's just to see if this makes any more sense in the source material.

As is, let's see. Where do I start? I'm quite sure Arsene Lupin and Sherlock Holmes never interacted with eachother. They're two entirely separate literary works written and set in two entirely separate countries. I'm not even entirely sure the years they were set in overlapped, though I'd have to check to be sure. Arsene lupin was a thief, not a serial killer. How does killing sherlock holmes' descendent indicate surpassing lupin at all? It's not even playing the same sport. I forgive because it's cheezy funtimes.

Guns as a melee weapon. Guns aimed intentionally at the bullet proof garments (the entire fighting style was based around that). Admitting ammo to be the biggest limitation, yet not acknowledging how much better this would work if they just used knives. Doesn't aria have those katana, or did they not let those through airport security? Yeah, there's not a single part of any of that which makes sense. I forgive because it's liquid awesome.

Kinji's deductions took leaps in logic that would make a vulcan cry. I forgive because it's badass.

Prehensile hair? Ridiculous. I forgive because it's par for the course really. Also, pretty neat. Wonder what else she can do with that hair?

Just according to keikaku was farfetched even by the standards of such things. I forgive because it pretty much had to be her based on the evidence, so the goals were kind of superfluous.

Who the hell did Aria's mom piss off to get that done to her? The EU I guess. Whatever. I forgive because I'm pretty sure that's a future plot point.

All together, it was a very fun and awesome episode. Cheezy in the way the best of B movies are cheezy, and fun in a comparable manner. Having fun with this, but definitely interested if there was ever a time that a moment of this made sense. As is it's like chewbacca on endor.

They fucked up, it should have been captured. The pride of Lupin was then attained. Perhaps revenge for that may have been in order but Lupin is not a serial killer but do remember a thief may use force to eliminate the person who is in their way no matter who. You see a crime, the criminal sees you and you are marked my friend until you either die or are forgotten by the thief. Depends on the depth of the crime.

The katanas will be used just spoiling a little for next episode. So expect then to be used less the studio screws that up. Knives did work well as Riko did slash Aria, I hate that bitch so bad, I can't shut up about it. There was a ricochet instant at one point which is not bad. You can shoot someone in the back of the head if you know how to ricochet a bullet. Best examples I have seen is in City Hunter! Ryo is the shit! I hope Kinji will be a good as him soon.

Prehensile hair? Ridiculous. I forgive because it's par for the course really. Also, pretty neat. Wonder what else she can do with that hair?
Sexual fetishes. I would not go on details but there are sex charms about hair in my personal stage psycho sexual course. PM me about that if you want.

Goddamn. I'm gonna have to check out the LN's just to see if this makes any more sense in the source material.

As is, let's see. Where do I start? I'm quite sure Arsene Lupin and Sherlock Holmes never interacted with each other. They're two entirely separate literary works written and set in two entirely separate countries. I'm not even entirely sure the years they were set in overlapped, though I'd have to check to be sure. Arsene Lupin was a thief, not a serial killer. How does killing Sherlock Holmes' descendent indicate surpassing Lupin at all? It's not even playing the same sport. I forgive because it's cheesy fun times.


They fucked up, it should have been captured. The pride of Lupin was then attained. Perhaps revenge for that may have been in order but Lupin is not a serial killer but do remember a thief may use force to eliminate the person who is in their way no matter who. You see a crime, the criminal sees you and you are marked my friend until you either die or are forgotten by the thief. Depends on the depth of the crime.

True. Not saying she can't kill, but to say you've surpassed him as a thief because you've engaged in an elaborate set of murders doesn't really work. The vengeance motif would have worked better. I like that.

Ah, that makes sense. Except for the part where she wasn't using them today, so not really lol. Still, like I said, it was all pretty awesome. I haven't really expected realism out of this since the first episode when Kinji dodged bullets already launched and then shot down the barrels of seven guns.

They did not explain shit properly I assume? Spoiler in case
Does the spoiler make sense? It should but IRL it never would.

Oh, I know how the power works. Still doesn't actually explain the ability to dodge bullets after they've left the chamber. Plus, Riko I assume doesn't have hysteria mode and she dodged bullets in today's episode, so we've pretty well established that this is something a skilled enough human can do in this series.

It's fine. Like I said, it's cheezy fun. All quite awesome. It's not a criticism at all.

I'd recommend you use a different subber then... Maybe start a topic if you're interested in recommendations. There are options.
