Why didn't they have Worick's little whisper to Ally when Nina was signing to Nic

Nina for being so young is so badass/cute if she was holder I'd totally ship her and Nic.

Also laughed super hard with the Doc pissed off about the hole in his building, even got me going in the manga.
I'm really glad they are staying so close to the manga but adding a few scene's to just pick up the pace a bit..

I can really say this may be my Fav anime of the year.

10/5

Oh and people look forward to the next two episodes

The end theme is my preference of the two. This episode is very entertaining with the action, character development, and general feel of the city. It tossed out some answers but gave just as many more questions about things. All in all, very well done.

I'm OK with waiting for subs if I get Underwater's awesome quality. Directly translating "Benriya" aside, this episode is awesome. Love the manga, love the anime.

Can we talk about how cool it was that there was a time limit in this episode that was actually consistent with the time it took for it to elapse? I.e. '30 seconds =/= 5 minutes of run-time' Like, he gave him 3 minutes and the second Nic drew his sword was almost exactly(give or take a few seconds) 3 minutes run-time after the fight started.

That's a really nice touch, you don't really see that much.

This anime has been great so far, loking forward to the next episode.

Awesome. Didn't catch that but I gotta say Nico is damn cool.

Probably going to be one of my favourite characters this season hands down.

Worick and Nicolas are still bad-ass. I like how it was shown that Alex isn't completely unaffected by the violence, and one like Nina has to get used to it. Nice perspective change from the two mains who kill without reservations (awesomely kill, I might add).
Worick's "Ciao" was incredible. Nico's protective side shines through and it makes these two already feel like great characters.

That Doc though, most bad-ass one in the entire city! xD

I wonder if these Twilight guys were subject to some kind of experimentation to increase their 'strength'

Solid episode. One of the better series in the so far disappointing 2015 summer season.

Fantastic episode! I think this show will probably be one of my favorites this season. Seriously liking Nicolas, freaking badass. Really want to know more about his story. And the ED's just fantastic, getting used to the OP too. Can't wait for the next episode already.

Another great episode. Nick and Worick are so badass. This definitely looks like it can be one of my favorites this season, hopefully it can maintain this level of excitement
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

My thoughts after 2ep: gimme more. For me Gangsta probably will be the best position in current season. I like this special, mysterious atmosphere, so less then 30 minutes is definitely too little. I can't wait for next episode. Especially because of ending.

Nothing much to say about this episode when everyone else has pretty much said it all lol

I will say that I'm glad that the animation for the fight scenes got a whole lot better so kudos to Manglobe

It's very good. There will be a lot of action. I can't handle the heavy language though but it's fine.

I love Nico. I want to watch more because of him

I think that the answer to this should be rather obvious, but I'm going to ask it anyway. Nicholas is using American Sign Language, right? I'm slightly curious about that.

Ok. That's what I was thinking. But since this takes place in what seems like a rundown city in the United States, I didn't want to rule out American Sign Language. Thanks for the info!

I just pictured some fangirl's reaction in this scene.



I wonder if this loli has a crush on Nicolas..



Good action. Can't wait to learn more about this Twilight and DogTags thing.



That end card. Is this supposed to be Nicolas? O_o

My exact reaction to that first picture was "dat ass". 10/10 Nicholas is the hottest badass this season.

I agree. Nico is awesome :D
And I like Nina too. She's a nice character. The backstory about the dogtags was interesting. We also got to know that Nico is A-rank and Worick D-rank.
