| Man these characters feel so lifeless |
 |
| Lisa needs a hug :( |
 |
| The OP is quite nice. Nice to see something about Nine and Twelve's past, too. Lisa's mother is creepy. |

| Did you notice guys? When the investigator was answering the riddle and he was broadcast on the big screen on the street there was an advert for a famous Japanese dancing group called World Order. |

| ohoho, a worthy rival, this is getting better |
 |
| Good episode . it's Shibazaki a person that 9 mention that he waiting for him ? |
| dam that shibazaki is smart |
 |
| Shibazaki is trully smart... But Nine and twelve's objective there was to check if the police has already connected their acts with the Plutonium steal. This is very interesting so far! |
 |
| Getting some Death Note vibes from episode 2 and 3. I think it's interesting so far. I hope the police don't manage to solve every riddle and it's a back and forth of sorts between the two. Can't wait to see the really tense scenes everyone online talks about consistently |
| This is turning into a car-mouse game. Great Episode. |
| Dropped. Feels like a kid trying to write an episode of House but with cops. Mythology shoehorned in 2deep4me. |
I enjoy watching people's favorites. Recommend your favorite show to me, even if I have it dropped/on hold. |
| Shibazaki, the fucking king of lore. Still puzzled by Sphinx's motives. I still do not like either of them yet. |
 |
| Well finally a show where the police are no slouches. 2-1 in favor of Sphinx, but the police are finally on the board. |
 |
| I love those kind of mindgames and riddles. Awesome, so far. |
  |
| This feels like a nice chess game...getting a semi-Death Note feel from it. When Shibazaki was described as a second-generation atomic bomb victim, I immediately thought of the generational differences in Japan and their relation to modern day terrorism. I could only imagine being in Japan during a terrorist attack knowing that Hiroshima and Nagasaki only happened 70+ years ago. Seems like a lot, but when you think about the generations, it is not that much. And super scary! |

| Considering that this is supposed to be a thriller, I'm not really feeling too thrilled. There's no emotional investment, but maybe that's intentional? I'm a little bit confused as to what I'm intended to feel. In any case, the characters don't feel "real" to me, they're not much more than mere pixels on the screen. That said, there is some enjoyment to be gained. The series so far looks great, I especially love the high contrast in the color values (basically, the show would look great even in black and white), and the scenes in general have a really good flow. Kanno Yoko's score is a bit overbearing sometimes but satisfies with its quality as usual. There certainly is something addicting about the series. By this point, at least some comprehensible narrative has taken shape, with the unnerving flashbacks to the orphanage, implied to have been part of a scientific experiment, later gone wrong. I don't know why this show isn't tagged as mystery instead of thriller because that would describe its appeal a lot better, in my opinion. I'll continue to watch just to see what kind of nonsense (in the best sense of the word) the show has in store. |

| Another great episode, we finally, got some background on Shibazaki and why he ended up in the archives. |
| And with this episode it's game on between Shibazaki and Sphinx!! |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Things are getting interesting. Love the OP music. |
 ☆ My Anime Challenges ☆ My List ☆ |
| Very interesting so far. The contrasting personalities between Nine and Twelve give their motives a fascinating spin. I have nothing to say about Lisa, though. I can only hope she starts getting more involved. |
| The flashback gave me a sick feeling. I don't know what they went through, but it doesn't seem pleasant at all. So far so good. Time to watch the next episode :) |
| Haha that guy's name is kawai. And lovin the ending song |
| I feel like the white hair kiddo is still alive lol. He's too unique to be dead :P characters that stand out are usually important X) Anyways. I feel ya on the hating summer part, Shibasaki. I live in TX. Imagine. Haha x___x YiKES. |
| still not really into this anime just courious about their past at this point. would kinda rush there if i could |
 |
| Really great series so far |
 |
| another good ass episode. still apprehensive about this anime though, waiting for the other shoe to drop. |
| Broooo this is s good, they even thought the riddle was to hard but he managed to solve it anyways, they might have some competition after all |
 |
| nice. With the help of Shibazaki, the police managed to diffuse the bomb |
 |
| blowing up buildings just because they want attention lol well the police aren't so noob so that's nice and mishima's going to sphinx's place ig? |
| Why would the police livestream their answer to the riddle? That's so goofy. All they have to do is get to the bomb before it explodes. I hope this show doesn't become a back-and-forth video response conversation where the boys annoyingly ask riddles and the detective gives an entire recap of his thought process to figure out the answer. |
 |
| Cat and mouse game is ON! Her mom is crazy, very crazy :/ |
| Very good episode |
 |
| Shibazaki feels more like the main character than the actual main characters, who still seem to have little to them other than their surface personalities and incredibly vague past. |

| As expected these kids were raised as terrorists from birth and tried to escape as soon as possible. Wonder why they keep giving riddles like history riddles though. Did they have too much free time to study up on history or something? |
