| After reading through some of the comments I've learned that this will have an original anime ending which disappoints me. I was really hoping it will follow the manga (which I have not read, but I will sooner rather later) and get a 2nd season (although it's not like the chances are that it couldn't get an original anime 2nd season or something along the lines). Coming back to the episode... RIP Lubba T.T |

natsucule said: Taking this pic it's so perfect i agree! |
| The only good thing about this, is that now i don't know what will happen, just like an anime only watcher, unpredictability is nice i suppose |

Put this in spoiler tags....Other than that i agree with you for the most part |

| Well there goes any chances of the anime having a decent anime original end. White Fox were doing so good..... Why would you do this? |
| Lubbock's death in the manga was much more gruesome due to the events of his torture scene which wasn't animated. Although Syura was still taken down afterwards I still think it was very unnecessary to cut that scene out and replace it with a typical stab in the back. The build up from the torture scene and the dialogue during it would have the audience take it much more seriously. Lubbock was chained up and tortured, he thought about Najenda and his resolve to not betray his comrades which led up to one of his balls getting crushed; you can't just remove a scene with so much last moments context and expect the same amount of feels. I am disappointed white fox, if it's going to turn into an "anime original" at least do it right. |

Tokoya said: I honestly don't see why so many of my fellow manga readers are so butthurt....Some of you are acting like we ddn't already know from last week that they were skipping 10+ chapters Yes, some Wave, Ran, Kurome, Mein, Tatsumi development and our big fight got axed (Possibly), but we don't know for a fact that we're not going to get a good replacement Regardless, this wasn't a bad episode at all 1. You anime only's are VERY LUCKY that you guys don't have to go through Shura and Wild Hunt's antics....I'm sure that if you ask any manga readers when they felt that the manga truly turned into shit, I guarentee that most people would say when they were introduced 2. Shura was the BIGGEST cunt in this entire series and somehow, White Fox and Takahiro managed to make him somewhat likeable in this....The fact that all of his antics were axed helped with this as well....Yeah he barely got any development in the anime, but I'd rather this than the bullshit he did in the manga 3. Lubbock got justice because they still managed to have him go out like a badass and subesequently killing Shura....Plus he didn't deserve what he got in the manga and all of that torture (Ball crushing etc) was just uncalled for and unnecessary (Wild Hunt in a nutshell) and the fact that he didn't have to go through that made me very happy My only nitpick is that Budou isn't as menacing as he was in the manga because Yay a sensible response 1. I actually had a small (small? HAH!) rant on that in the 'What the hell Happened' Forum 2. Yeah, anime Syura is preferrable. A lot more stupid, but I'm glad for that. 3. I really wonder how you stay so composed. GJ for that Maledict said: Well, after ep.19 i got really freaking confused and decided to read all the chapters thus far. Lubbock's death is undoubtedly better in the anime. The one in the manga was so weird... Still, no torture scene, and Lubbock killing Shura in the manga was wittier. And then come the many, many things left out. Now that that's written, the episode really wasn't bad from an anime-only perspective. Lubbock proving once again how strong and clever he is, i'm glad that bastard Shura died. Another member of NR is down, it isn't looking good for Tatsumi either. Since it's going to be an anime-original ending, i can't wait to see what happens. 4/5. Question for any anime/manga fan: do you think Budo will ever stop being such a tool? Lol no way. Budou growing a brain would be like Esdese gaining a breath of sanity. Other than that, yeah I'm gonna sorely miss the few good moments of the skipped chapters. Think I'll go re-read it sometime. It would probably help some Anime-only watchers if they did too. It would explain quite a few things. |

PriestSlayer said: natsucule said: Read the mangaWould a non-manga reader drop it after watching this episode? |
|
| Wow, this show just keeps killing everyone off... And while it seems like everyone is claiming that the manga is better, it just seems to me that AgK has nothing more than a lot of pointlessly gruesome deaths. |
 Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol. |
| I don't get why people are bitchin' so much. The sales are too low for it to get a second season and they have to close the story in some way or another and had to skip some content. And anime in general are rarely as good as the manga they are adapted from anyway.Let's just hope they manage to do it in an entertaining fashion that sticks to the spirit of the story. And I say this as someone who has been reading the AkG manga for years. Anyway, I look forward to the next episode and a certain conversation that will hopefully take place. |

Pers0na said: Okay I really need to get this out because this is just too ridiculous [spoiler] OH MY GOD, I CAN'T BELIEVE THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE CRYING OVER THIS EPISODE. Are you being serious? You wanted to see Wild Hunt animated when there was ONLY 4 EPISODES LEFT!!!??? That shit was BORING AS HELL to read even for the small good moments like Wave beating Shura up and so on. White Fox has set their PRIORITIES straight here and you'll see that soon enough. And the guys crying about Susanoo's fight? Did you even read the TITLE for the next episode? It's friggin obvious that Night Raid is coming to rescue Tatsumi and that we'll see Susanoo fight Esdeath and what not. Sure it won't be the same, but oh my god, how can you expect the anime to end when they have decided to go for an original ending since the last episode? If they ended the anime doing that stupid Wild Hunt then I'd jump off a bridge or something. Thank god White Fox will actually give us "less whiny" manga readers something to look forward to in terms of original content and action. I at least am looking forward to the final fight between Night Raid and the Jeagers. You keep lying to yourself like that. |

I still enjoy the minister's "Oh, well" either way, though. If anything making his death anticlimactic was a good thing. This series has too many overdramatized and predictable deaths |

Ok guys. I want you to all take a careful look at the picture and tell me where Rabac got stabbed (Lubbock if that's what you want to call him- ugh). R.I.P. Balls It's a bit close to call. I don't want it to be true ;_; Also, take a break from all your arguing and just enjoy life for a second. I can gurantee that yours is better than Rabac's. |

| ^ Irrelevant the episode was horrible... it make no sense from a continuity standpoint... this episode could of been called episode 24 with the amount of rushing. No development... no buildup... just deaths... its as if the previous episode didn't happen. |

| That fact that people actually think that this death of Lubbock is better than his manga one is what makes me question the inteligence of the human race. In the manga it was all LOGICAL. Here we have conveniently placed spears RIGHT under where Lubbock was teleported. TRULY A MASTERPIECE DEATH. Fuckin joke |
