| Another Night Raid member bites the dust. At least Lubbock took Shura with him to the grave. Lubbock had honor in dying for the sake of Night Raid and the Revolutionary Army. Public Execution for Tatsumi. It seems that Esdeath wants the chance to see him. This might turn out okay. |
| R.I.P Lubbock :( |
Z4k said: Honestly I really feel bad for the AgK fans. Dick move by white fox lol. Now I'm curious how this trainwreck will end. Dunno, I'm liking the fact that it's original material. For me, cuz I read the manga anyway, it seems more fresher. As for the quality of the actual new material, that's something else altogether. The quality of the plot, as far as the new material goes anyway, feels rushed and undeveloped. That being the case, the two things I'm liking so far: The mom and daughter were spared, and Shura got ass-raped here. Also, in the manga he wasn't that much stronger than portrayed here, but he wasn't a push over either. |
| So it went anime original and skipped some stuff? Eh, that just gives me more incentive to check out the manga. This has felt rushed for a while anyway. |
 |
| Why are people so surprised that they had to skip an arc that adds a number of new characters they don't have the time for so that a) they actually have an ending to a story with a vastly uncompleted manga that they'd have to wait years to continue an anime for (I mean, unless you really wanted to wait like 5 years+ for the adaptation to continue) and b) was full of gang rape, paedophilia and torture? I dunno how any of you actually expected them to get away with showing Wild Hunt properly in a 24 episode TV anime, especially when so many lately have shown that Japanese TV is often reluctant to even show blood. At best they'd have to have left at an awkward cut off and made a sequel movie, which I'm sure plenty of people would have then complained about and said was a ploy to make more money or some shit. It'd suck for anyone that was anime-only too since, this might surprise you, but animes are meant to be stand alone adaptations everyone can enjoy like any other TV show, not just wankfests for manga readers. |
darkreaver94 said: The story became a mess, full of plot holes thanks to the anime going original. I don't mind it being original as I'm not into manga, really. I liked this episode, and liked the previous episode. It just bothers me there was a fight that randomly went unresolved. Would have been nice to see Wave actually fight instead of him being a punchline. The one serious fight they have him in and they skip it. |
| Bullcrap, sasuga White Fox. I can't believe this. Well, at least Lubbock was SO badass up until the end. They changed the manga's storyline for the sake of catching up the latest chapter? They changed the ones that will die first before Lubbock and Syura for the sake of this?! (Yeah yeah, I'm glad that one NR member doesn't bye yet but still...) Man, what a trainwreck. |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |
Zadion said: ITT: butthurt manga fans bitching about anime changes I sympathize with you, but I'd much rather have changes than a bunch of rushed bullshit where it skips half the series like so many other adaptions. I'd also prefer it to a thorough adaption with a cliffhanger ending when its obvious AGK wouldn't get a sequel for a LONG time, if it ever would. Cliffhangers endings only work if a sequel is guaranteed within the next year. From the neutral perspective of someone who isn't reading the manga, this episode was fucking incredible. The action was good, it made me hyped af, and I was positively FURIOUS when that woman stabbed Lubbock. If an anime conjures extreme anger and hatred towards a particular character or event, that's a sign of success. RIP Lubbock. After this episode, you'll go down as one of my favorite characters of the series for sure. I can't be the only pissed that all the good characters are dying while fucking Mine is still alive with no signs of death coming anytime soon. ffs I will kiss ass this post so i wont waste my time saying the same shit xD. |

| Heh, I was wondering how they'd do the Syura arc, turns out they didn't. They really shouldn't have tried to add any original material, and they really shouldn't have cut out that arc. Also, I think they're basically at the same point as the manga now, with Lubbok dead and Tatsumi captured, next episode should be a talk with Esdeath and Tatsmi, and the one after that should be the manga's latest chapter. That is, if they don't decide to take any more "drastic" decisions... Well now, this show should be plummeting any second now, just curious to see how badly it does fall. |

By the way. In original broadcast in Japan anime has Johj-tier censoring |

MysticJhn said: Did I miss something here? Epiosde 19 had a fight between Su/Leone vs. Wave/Kurome. They showed Wave charging at Su, but then cut to Najenda talking to Esdeath. The episode ended without ever getting back to the Wave vs. Su fight. Episode 20 begins, and you see Wave and Kurome eating dinner with the guy with the feather in his hair. His name escapes me. Did they just skip that fight? We see all 4 characters in that fight in episode 20, so they all survived clearly. Did Wave see the scene change and just say, "Alright guys, scene over, same time next week?" Yeah, I was expecting them to stick by the "If Teigu users fight, at least one of them will die rule" :| Was totally not expecting Lubbock to die in this episode.... |
| I gotta admit the only reason I'm still watching this is that characters actually die in the battles, but Lubbock's death was the most painful after Bulat, I wish it didn't happen T-T |
| Lol, i was surprised when i watched this episode like, "whoa am i missing this arc in the manga," but hell no. Well it's really unexpected that it would turned out to be original anime ending, some feels from the manga might be gone tho, like: When susano'o died. Whoa, i really got all hyped to see the battle to assasinate borrick, that battle is really exciting! But it got skipped just like that? Well it is dissapointing. I don't really care 'bout the wild hunt arc tho, i don't really like it anyway. But why did they skip the lubbock's ball crushing scene!! lol. Don't get me wrong, IMO the way he killed Shura was better in manga, and that's also applied in Lubbock's dead. But even if Susanoo doesn't died yet, i think he will died in the battle to save tatsumi, which might only decrease mine's badass a little. But i'm still hyped to see how it ended like, will it have different ending with the manga or will it give spoiler to the manga ending? *They don't animate when leone tortured tho, lol she got her boob slashed |
Sorry For my Bad English lol  |
| LOL Just when I thought this anime couldn't get any worse. |
HeidenOvTheNord said: Can I ask why people are getting so up in arms about this anime not following the Manga and going for an original ending? You read the Manga, right? So you already know that story. Why do you want the same exact thing again? I just look at it as a multiple ending path kind of thing like they have in video games. Why so many people here are acting like entitled crybabies I simply don't understand. Because for a manga reader an adaptation is the chance to see their favorite scenes in more details with voice acting and epic music to boot. This abortion of a development is the very antithesis of an adaptation. Manga Readers come for the manga being adapted not some director's version of a shitty fanfic |

| because of this episode i start reading its manga. good strategy in forcing anime watcher to read the manga... i guess.. btw, seems like this anime will pass through the manga part in next two weeks since the manga is only up to the public execution part at the moment. |

| Dont read the manga, dont know were this is going, but im actually like it. I can understand the rage of manga readers, but for anme viewers, is better ot have an ending, then no ending. But i really hope this isnt one of those that everyone dies and only 1 or 2 characters remains. |
 |
| best character dead. why I'm going to watch the next episode? |
 |
| Budou's hair is kinda weird, I hadn't noticed it in the manga... |
| Gonna have to read the manga to see what this shitstorm is about, rip Lubbock |
kedisiva said: Lots of stuff happend,you even mentioned some of it in your comment.FUCK. Really fuck this shit. In every episode this anime is going worse. I was watching this just for lubbock and I wont finish this anime. Just a waste of time. Nothing happening. In every episode comes a new "super powerful" character and it dies. And a good character dies. NOTHING HAPPENED DURING 20 EPISODES !!! Just another trash anime... |
| NOOOOOOOOOOOOO Lubbock was so cool. I feel pain. Hurts more then bulat's death. WHY KILLING HIM? OMG WHY? His death in the manga is even worse (as the readers told me). The author kinda like to kill good characters as the boring Tatsumi is still there. UH. (personal opinion, I don't like Tatsumi). The only reason I'm not gonna drop it it's because I've gone too far for this shit. 20 episodes. Sad. |
 |
| Awesome episode. RIP Lubba. Come @ meh, mango fans. |
| The hell is wrong with you people? Were you just waiting for something like this to happen so you could bad mouth the anime? Is that how it is these days? A character died in the anime, big deal... like you haven't seen it happening already. (in anime in general) Reading this thread's comments is just terrible, it makes me sad for you people. |
| That's the thing I don't understand. Why would people that follow the manga be disappointed at an anime ADAPTATION? If you like the manga, then just read it. Changes are always bound to happen, don't you guys already know that? Sure, you also like watching your favorite manga's adaptation, but you already know the studio will change one or two things... It's always bound to happen that, hence why it's dumb to bitch about this. |

DaHitman said: That's the thing I don't understand. Why would people that follow the manga be disappointed at an anime ADAPTATION? Have you attended school? What does adaptation mean? It has to be the same to be a good adaptation, only slight changes can occur, changing the main story is not adapting, it's despicable for us(anime and manga fans) and for the author. You have some nice attitude, you probably haven't read much manga so you should be impartial and pay attention to what "RodaPT" said, because the anime fans like you suffer the most since they are in ignorance of what happened. You have just been pissed in the face and gang raped without knowing it. A good analogy is, "to us manga readers we were given an iPhone 6 plus to anime fans it was given an Samsung S1 but anime fans still think the two are the same". |
| Well apparently they changed shit up. I never read the manga so just wondering where to start since they skipped 10 chapters. |
 |
Hikarusuke said: Well apparently they changed shit up. I never read the manga so just wondering where to start since they skipped 10 chapters. Chapter 40, but you should read from scratch. There are still changes from the beginning, like censored scenes, story told a little different and such. |

Jarkzy said: I havent seen nothing that confirms it other than manga fans complaining and assumming its true Dude it's simple, they skipped more or less 10 chapters from episode 19 to 20, characters important to the story died there, others died in a different way, it impacts the future greatly. The anime ends in only 4 eps a manga chapter of this is only released monthly. |
