Also lol at Nishijima's bulletproof body. the power of love made the bullets not pass threw him.


Every single anime, movie, and Western cartoon that has guns uses that cliche you know.


Western cartoons aren't to be taken seriously at all. They are mostly for children, that's why i watch anime when i want to see animation. So who cares what cartoon do.
Anime and movies yes they might do it but having a guy jumping in frond of a bullet when another person is a meter behind is a little more excusable and baring since you can still say the bullet might have changed trajectory after hitting him just to feel a little better. This scene was in another level though. The guy had her stuck to his body while getting hit by a whole clip.
I also laugh at movies showing people taking cover behind tables and couches while in a gun shooting. That's an indicator of a cheap bad made action movie.


You do realize that most bullets are not strong enough to pierce a body, right?


You did notice that the guy shooting wasn't holding some silly little pistol, didn't you?
It was a freaking army rifle. I don't know the statistics about percentages of pistol bullets passing human bodies and what caliper seem to be doing it more often but army rifles are more than strong enough.
Anyway lets take it in good faith and say that they where some kind of jacketed bullets
and she was very lucky cause am bored.


I can argue a point here. Most urban security forces will not use a solid round, they will use a hollow point which fragments on initial impact to do more damage to a living target while minimising collateral damage and injuries.

It's HIGHLY likely that this is the type of round used and as such, it's perfectly reasonable that Nishijima's body is enough to save Minene as he would take all of the impact that way.

People are just nitpicking and looking for complaints now. Sure there are loads of plot holes in this but this one is at least justifiable so let's just leave it at that.

It's quite funny to have you all complaining about plotholes xD But Nishijima can always have a bullet-proof vest right? Kurusu had one, when Yuno shot him, so why can't Nishijima have one, since he's a cop. By the way there are lots of movies out there which shows that bullets don't go through body. I remember one, which some agent was off work and riding a carusel horse in carnival, the bullet hit his daughter, but it didn't went to his body. It was just a handgun though.

Wait! You have to destroy both computers at the same time? That is ridiculous. If it's a server whatever you destroy it will make things collapse, there is no way that you can destroy them and the network to continue to work simply because they weren't destroyed at the same time.
Also lol at Nishijima's bulletproof body. the power of love made the bullets not pass threw him.

I don't look for too much logical consistency in this show, but perhaps the computers are constantly sending messages back and forth to each other. And if one stops, then the other will execute some nasty programme. I don't have a problem with that. But I wonder how this crucial requirement was discovered by our heroes.

No episode this week? Damnnnn just when everything was spicing up!

I just realised I didn't actually comment on episode 20. Probably one of the best episodes up to date. However once again I do not like the censoring argh. It would've been more scarier for me if I saw Minene's arm.

My lovely Minene was amazing. Her and Nishijima are so cute. I don't know why, but when I read the manga, I used to hate Nishijima hitting on Minene because all he wanted was to 'spread her legs', but the anime has changed my opinion of him and I'm sad he died.

The wedding was hilarious and I wish it happened. Ugh next episode is gonna make me cry. Guess I'm waiting another week >_>

You're so right about that one thing. Minene can kill them, granny and the mayor and become god and everyone will be happy.

Too bad that the cop died since I liked them together.

And she lost her hand :( WHY THE HELL DO THEY HAVE TO MAKE THINGS WORSE FOR HER?!

Hell yeah! Yukki stayed by Yuno's side afterall, nice. They're working together so comfortably now. And Yukki has manned up with a new look in his eyes.

Poor Minene and Nishijima. :( Would have been great to actually see them get married or be together longer. Ughhh dying right in front of her, at least it was because he wanted to protect her. Minene loses her hand as well. She's just got bad fortune, hope she at least comes out of this arc alive.

Murmur is being very suspicious...

After that "lol" cliffhanger, what I got is "Yuno is Yuno." then they got away and the next scene is already about Minene.

I DONT EVEN!!

At least, I'm interested in the mayor's abilities.

Kind of irritating to hear complaining about plotholes when it was apparent from episode 1, this series was going to be full of plotholes. I wish people would just quiet down if they are going to say the same thing every goddamn episode.

Entertaining all the way. Every characters have their own motives and everything went all hell, this episode was quite like a rollercoaster in terms of pacing. I enjoyed the interaction between Nishijima and Minene Uryuu. There was a very good chemistry even though they don't know each other all that well.

Noooo, not Nishijima! :'( It was so nice to see Minene and Nishijima together. :(

And I can't wrap my head around Yukki and his act. Yeah, he is only acting, but it feels very unnatural coming from him. But I'm happy as long as he isn't crying like a girl.

There are no words to explain how much pain and suffering Minene has to go through in this series.

1 - One eye stabbed by a dart.
2 - The same eye that got stabbed by the dart gets yanked out.
3 - One hand gets blown up.
4 - The person who loved her dies in front of her.

Geez... cut her some slack.

Hahaha!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I'm so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ♥♥♥♥♥ it's 3:30 in the morning around here and I'm afraid I can't stop watching this anime... i might not get any sleep tonight. mhm! i mean, well... maybe i'll go get some sleep after I watch episode 21... MAYBE!

Yukkiteru didn't leave Yuno! I was so glad, I smiled. I so expected him to leave her and i was so shocked because he didn't have to do anything like that. Not only that he can 'use' her the way he pleases, but she's so adorable and cool and sexy and he likes her even though he's not really saying it, or whatever and i so love her and I am so glad he didn't leave her. I feel so excited.

Nishijima's random proposal was so sweet... It was a nice random thing. I felt quite sorry for him, but not that bad because he saved Ninth and he was such a cool guy for doing that. Yeah, he has my respect.

I didn't really get the part where Deus did what he did to Ninth... i mean, what was that? I will find out sooner or later, anyway. I have my ideas, but you never know.

hehehe, Yukkiteru keeps playing cool, but for how long, I wonder?
Yuno is as lovely and insane as ever.

The Watcher... hmmm, he's a smart ass. But he has his weaknesses. They all have their weaknesses. but who's the best candidate for the God role? No one...? mhm... I think none of them is fited for the role, not even Ninth. But what's next, anyway? WHAT'S NEXT?

I loved this episode!!! so bloody and exciting!!!!

my head hurts. Should get some sleep. Okay, those 6 more episode left, I'll watch them tomorrow -first thing in the morning.
God bless Japan and its anime!

Marriage? Are you kidding me? T_T

...he should have known that would be SUCH a death flag.


Apart from that, I found the episode okay, not too much to complain about. I'm hoping the ending will make up for a lot of illogical stuff the characters did though.
Also, I feel kinda sad for Nishijima. =(

Wait what? So they just kinda glossed over the reveal of Yuno? I guess Yuki really does not care. Nishijima proposing to 9th was random but I guess kind of funny. I chuckled at her knoweldge of what marriage consisted of. Nice to see the other kids back, they're still as goofy as ever. What's up with MurMur being evil? And that hallcuination that 9th had when Deus impaled her? Did he plant some secret power in her? 9th seems to have an exceptional ability of slowing down time long enough for her to see the thing that's going to maim but do nothing to stop it. Sucked that the cop got shot and now Yuki and Yuno are the Japanese version of Bonny and Clyde. Show is dick in nose retarded and I absolutely love it.

Too bad the anime hasn't given me any reason to care about what happens to Mirene or Nishijima at all. This could have been much better.

Exactly. This anime is good at making people not care about the characters (barring whatever happens in the manga, which I wouldn't know about, nor should it matter).

Still, this was OK. It's been at the point where I don't expect much or care much, and just hope that the ending wraps up nicely.

woo a quick change of character perspective!!

i actually thought Yuki would bail out and leave Yuno after hearing she's a "fake"

finally he did something good.

and lol the episode has just began and we already have tons of Minene fanservice!!!!!



Ninth being married!?!?!

i refuse to acknowledge!!!!



ehh Nishijima sounded too desperate. i still think fourth's relationship with Ninth is much stronger and closer than theirs. then again he already has a wife and a child so yeah



poor Minene is she going to die alone T__T



NO!!!!!!! Minene don't!!!



Minene's arm just got blown off!!!!!!



Nishjima is Dead



she looks beat up O__O



lol that Yuki bastard, thinking he smart and acting tough despite being a pansy all throughout the season



Yuno with a machine gun and katana!!!!!



Murmur being tall!!!



last 5 episodes left!!

i wonder how will this end!!

I was so confused when I saw him walking down the stairs after blasting away those guards. Do they really think that the mayor is going to care about a couple civilians? I don't think so.
Well I can see these next 6 episodes are going to be mach 26 speed, so I'm going to have to digest this episode a little more. Fuck this is getting interesting.
