| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Another great episode. I love how this series goes into the past of every character. Edel's a real go-getter, working her butt off after being treated that way, something you'd find in Black Lagoon. I've found a deep respect for that girl. I wonder if we'll get to see the chief's background? |
 |
| Lol, Edel reminded me of Revy XD Quite some history she has D: |
 |
| Wow, edel as a former prostitute, huh? It's always the quiet ones... |
 |
| i've been noticing some strange Edel outfits in quite a few episodes, now we know the reason... I wonder if they will show a little more of Claire past as well... |
botch said: i've been noticing some strange Edel outfits in quite a few episodes, now we know the reason... Yeah, I've been noticing those strange outfits too. Edel is a much deeper character now. Hachirota and Tanabe almost had it going on. It's nice to see a relationship develop this early in a show. |
| That was almost a 5-star show, its quite rare to see them near a bed lol |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |

| This is getting really good! Glad I didn't drop this. |
| Do you guys think I can call her Edel too? |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| Wow! Edel action to the extreme! Phwoar! I bet a night with her would be a pretty wild ride! Funny how Hachi and Tanabe keep getting interrupted! I wonder if that's how they'll stretch out the relationship building until the end of the series! Haha, as a bit of a romance softie, i'd prefer that to relationship drama! What has this series got in store for us next? |
 |
| It started out as a boring episode...but then it turned interesting all of sudden, i think i'll keep watching this |
| Best episode so far! I always thought this girl was just filling in, but now I feel great admiration (and wish to spend a w i l d night with her) towards Edel, really loved how she overcame all those nasty situations. |

 |
| Intense episode. Who knew an ordinary date could go from romance to crossbow and a clothline? |
 |
| Great episode some more relation development and some other side of Edel-san is shown! Quite nice, lets see what's next! |
 |
| They are such an awkward couple >.< . . . Anyways I thought Edel's part time would be that she was like a hostess judging by what she always wore when leaving work . . . However her past sounds kind of, well that sucks. But surprised they can't just hire her as a full-time employee seeing as how she does so much work. |
 |
| Yappari, she worked as a prostitute. Now we know what's the story behind the quiet office lady. Every characters' story is unraveled every episode. Awesome character development. |
 |
| finally, a ep on edel. I always wondered about her backstory and now I know it. |
| GIGAAAAALT!!! CHENG-SHIN!? DOLF YOU SMOOVE FUCK! ALMOST-SEX! EDEL!!!! SEA CUCUMBER! And that PREVIEW! Nono-chan is going to be in the next ep!! Wooooooooo I live for Nono oh yesyes |
| THE BEDROOM SCENE. CRIMINAL INTERRUPTION. Also Edel, you fucking go girl. |
| the official MAL hall of fame/cursed comments is now open for business - you are welcome to PM me any potential quotes to include |
| Damn, he was forcing Edle in prostitution? That's some pretty hardcore stuff. Well, fuck that scum. He even managed to literally cockblock Ai and Hachi. What a rat. |
| «Time is passing so quickly. Right now, I feel like complaining to Einstein. Whether time is slow or fast depends on perception. Relativity theory is so romantic. And so sad.» - Kurisu Makise a.k.a. The Zombie |
| I love this show so much, it's so fucking good, one episode and a character boring become a character i care about ! |
| Weak episode for me. Edel is the real deal. She is truly a ideal worker. 2.7/5 |
 |
| Hachimaki and Tanabe are really dating now. They event rented a room but found someone cowering behind the bed. Its the husband from Edel, the secratary girl of debris section. Finally we getting to know her a bit better. Well her love-life sure was bumpy. |
Forum signature |
| yay backstory for Edel, i've always been interested in her. i like all the characters in this anime so far, they all have a deeper meaning |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| I'm not a fan of this kind of writing where a character is given such a grim backstory for instant drama... Oh well. I guess I'm glad that Edel can take care of herself now. |

| So that was Edel's past, huh. She suffered a lot being exploited by a worthless scum, but she didn't give up, and she is doing her best, working hard, to have a better life. Another good episode! Claire, and Hakim are most certainly going to get together too, but I feel bad for Cheng-Shin, and Hachimaki's sensei's condition is getting worse, I wonder when, and how he will find out about it. |
 |
| Awwing and gasping every time Hachi and Ai interact. I remembered this episode. Doing something with each supporting or background character and not forgetting about them is one of things I like about this show. Edel's former pimp was such an idiot. |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| Tanabe and Hachi in the hotel haha. Nice to learn more of Hilde's past. |
 |
| A fine episode, although not quite as good as the string of episodes since the really bad ninja one. Still though, nice to see Hachimaki and Tanabe take steps to progress their relationship together already since the confession and kiss in the previous episode, and even better to see more of Edel and learn about her past in the episode too. |
| Oh man this was a great episode! Edel sure is a character! An admirable one! Along with Fee she's probably my favourite :D Cheng-shin joking when talking to Tanabe and Hachi was funny xD |
i wish i was a cloud |
| Finally diving into Edel's past. And well, prostitution and domestic violence was more than expected. Heavy stuff. I assumed she was going on dates or was working in a bar, lol. But I loved seeing her all emotional in contrast to her professional self. Meanwhile more cockblocking on the romance front. First the rocket now an abusive ex husband. What's next? |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| tanabe and hachi are so unlucky xD loved how edel became from simple worker to some deep baby lol |
| yay! Edel finally smiled! (❁´◡`❁) |
 |
| Holy cow, what an epic episode! Everything is linked together.
The intertwining of the stories was amazing. |
