| Serves you right, Doctor! Good job Hoodlum, rest in peace. Hacker time next week. |
| Doctor got what she deserved. I wonder if we'll see Hacker again, it'd be very cool to see him again. |
 |
| Damn, Doctor was a very smart and cunning bitch all the way until the end and I totally loved her for that. And her death was so satisfying and well deserved. What a great character she was. She obviously won’t rest in peace lol but I at least wanted to learn her real age :( I felt really sorry for Hoodlum the entire time. RIP. Only Swindler and Courier left, and according to the foreshadowing, he’ll die trying to finish his job or something. Meanwhile Hacker is pulling the strings from behind the scenes (most possibly) in Kanto. I think he’s the one who let all those people in the Shinkansen... |
| If you read Eleceed you're automatically my friend. |
| RIP best boy Hoodlum, you'll be missed. Brawler would be proud :') I wonder why they assigned that rookie executioner for such an important job lol I guess eyepatch did need a partner but still. Worst first day at work ever. The post-credit scene kinda gave off the impression than all the people let into the Shinkansen are gonna end up as human sacrifices or something. Wtf is going on in Kanto. |
 |
| Great episode! Hoodlum got justice, after he heard that Brawler died of bloodloss cause Doctor didn't heal him propperly. Ironically, that the doctor died by getting stepped on while trying to heal herself. Was much deserved to be honest. Surprising to see so many people board the Shinkansen, quite the development! Hacker back next week! |
 |
| Hoodlum will be missed...... Am glad the bitch got steeped on, she died in one of the worst ways possible. |

| Well the Doctor finally got what she deserved by being trampled to death after Hoodlem sacrificed himself to stab her. The people rushing into Kansai station to worship the Shinkansen as their god was kinda weird, but I guess the people really wanted get out of the hellhole called Kansai. |
 |
| Great episode, Doctor's death with Hoodlum being the one to stab her was predictable but her getting trampled to death was very satisfying. Haven't laughed at someone getting killed in a while. I've never really liked Hoodlum, but his admiration and friendship with Brawler was touching. Rip Hoodlum. Next week's episode looks interesting, I guess Hacker's back. |
  "As promised, all that you seek, all that we desire, is prepared up there. On top of the Tower." |
| Another very tense episode, the decision by the Chief Executor to define citizens as Akudama was quite extreme. Too bad Hoodlum died, but he still took the Doctor. |

 Wlep that's it for Doc Bitch and Pussy Hoodlum. |
episode was sinister the end of the episode was bizarre doctor deserved to have died. |
| I got some immense satisfaction when that bitch died. That's what we love to see. |
| Watashi wa a victim of cyberbullying. Everyday someone online calls me a "weeb" desu. Watashi won't stand for this. 26 percent of bullying victims are chosen due to their race or religion desu. I may look like a basic white boy, but deep down I am Nihongo desu. Watashi religion is anime. Anata wa bullying me because of my race and religion desu ka? Disgusting desu. Anata should be ashamed of yourself, racist pig. A baka gaijin like anata is probably jealous of my race and culture, cause Nippon is more sugoi than your shitty country desu. Watashi pity anata. You'll never be Nihongo like watashi. Educate yourself on nani a "weeb" is. |
Is Hacker voice in the next episode preview? If it is him lets goo!!!!! |

| Well, everyone's killing people now, the whole city is a slaughter house. It's the world of Akudama now. I had a feeling Hoodlum was gonna pass on this episode and I guess I was right, he passed on...taking Doctor with him to the depth of hell...I salute you Hoodlum... So it would seem the fight to steal Brother is nearing it's end however the executioners are now going on a rampage killing all Akudama...Execution Division Apprentice, curious to see her actions from now on, she may...switch sides...I dunno...don't quote me on that. There may have actually been a shot of Hacker...I'm not sure... Good episode :) |
 |
| You don't down a riot by murdering everybody involved |
 _______I like rocks__  |
| An uprising reached its peak. The Boss of Executioners won't be washing her hands easily. Her decision to the police HQ unexpectedly a better choice for her, after the Executioners HQ was just a trash. She needed to get rid of them, even using such a dirty ways. Yeah, they used Akudama as her solid reason to stop the uprising. After so much happening, she finally realized her mistake with the stealing Akudama at Shinkansen issues. Foolish leader, and she used a brutal forces to washed her hands? Its truly right, Swindler, Doctor might be a super bitch. But that woman was just another level. I hope she got the brutal death too like her way of thinking on these episode. Man, Kansai really became a chaos, and put the lives of innocent into a real danger. I mean, yeah, they easily sway the lifes of the innocent like crushing an insect. Afterall, there were no true hero, or the bearer of justice . They were all just an Akudama. Then, the real thread began while the snow flakes fell from the sky (like these currently time, nice picking, who ever wrote the settings. Lol). The real identity of Doctor. At least she got what she wanted, and death like she wanted (that ending that showed her, and Hoodlum death somehow satisfying me. Its like, a sweet death, afterall. Lol) Well, she was a super bitch. However, she should've known, who the real heroine here, no matter how great her plan was. Yeah, Swindler magic activated again. And the plot armour thicken as soon as the uprising reached its peak. You don't believed it? Trust Swindler pure souls and let the plot helped you until the end! Here they were, back to where they started, at Shinkansen train again. Lmao. Now, referring to the preview scene, its might be a time for Hacker to made a reappearance. And Kanto real form, might've been leak in the next episode too. Oh, and one more thing: Hoodlum said: after having a finally, manly fights, and became a true hero.You, were, the best, bro .... |

| Some of the logic passages are a bit shaky (Why is the doc obsessed with getting brother where she could just get the sister and why didn't she just kill Courier?) but overall it's a pretty great episode. I guess next ep will have some Kodaka-tier crazy twist. |
 |
| What a intense episode, normal citizens dying and of course two Akudama died. I think they are going to do the same thing on their job. |
 |
| Executioners executing citizens Hoodlum getting revenge for his bro The train just inviting hordes of people on I hope they either bring everything together these last two episodes, or at least wrap it up in a way that leads to a second season. |
| I think Hacker's plan is to give Kanto and Kansai a taste of reality. Kansai will get to see what the reality of Kanto is really like (both in terms of just seeing it, and how they will treat people from Kansai), and Kanto will get to see how the people they've been stepping on will respond once they recognize the boot. |
 |
| So Cutthroat was able to kill everyone in the exectutioner building because all the exectutioners were handling the riots. That seems like having your cake and eating it too, but whatever. I enjoyed the interactions as the gang all met up again. Hoodlum came through and Doc is gone for good. |
| Damn that good. AOTS! |
| I'm so glad that Bitch Doctor FINALLY got hers!!! The Squad about to go to Kanto and Meet up with HACKER!!! Actually super excited for next week's episode. |

| you dont fucking know how happy i am that dumb doctor bitch is dead. hope hoodlum sees kyoudai in the afterlife :) |
| wow this episode was crazy this series is just absolutely amazing, slowly becoming my third 10/10 i just hope it ends well theres no chance for a season 2 right? right? |
 |
| The violence got turned up even more wow. The akudama are dropping off fast. The secret of Kanto must be FUCKED UP if this is what happens when riots start in Kansai. Ellen Degeneres off her shits. The last scene made it seem like the masses that made it onto the train were all human sacrifices. If the Decontamination Zone info is right, then they should all be dead before they even reach Kansai, but the ending scene made the truth sound even more sinister than that. I guess the passenger section of the train did have a use at one point. I miss Hacker. I wonder what happened to him :( Doctor was just established as a terrifying villain but then was wiped out. I was really digging her insanity. I thought for sure she would be able to repair herself since she fully recovered from decapitation in the past, but then she got trampled l m a o |
| What a very tense episode on all fronts. Looks like many revelations are coming for the next episodes. The Boss made a damning move to kill all the protesters for "peace". And once the snow hits, the streets of Kansai is bloody. Doctor is a despicable villain, not only did she betrayed all of them for her maniacal goals, she killed Brawler in a more grim way, and that was awful. The crowd helps distract Doctor for the others to escape, leaving Hoodlum and Doctor killing each other out, Hoodlum finally makes our bro Brawler proud. I'm really surprised that the Shinkansen train opened to the bursting crowd, I guess we're going to Kanto now. At the end, Doctor being stepped by the stampede was a deserving way to go for her own sake, really good scene. |
 |
| This episode took this anime to another level for me. So many plot twists were revealed in this episode! The Doctor is indeed the worst person in this anime lmao, glad she finally died! And what a way to die tho. So she was the one who "killed" Brawler :/ RIP Hoodlum, you did a great job! Proud of that guy. And the whole Akudama/Executioners plot became really interesting, questioning who is really the Akudama. Killing innocent people like that damn, and the whole blackmail done by the Doctor was so good, i guess for the first time that girl seen the other side, what a way to play their emotions, damn! So smooth! About that ending where people were running onto the train, it's either 1 of the 2, Hacker took control of whole Kansai and is bringing the rest of Akudama and the people so that they can see what happened there or most of the people will die in the train, because of that protection. 2 more episodes to go, can't wait to see how this will end! |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| she got what she deserved for being so evil , still this final arc is my least favorite thing it's just bunch of mass murder but now it's related to the train letting on tons of citizens this will be very messed up next week. still feel like personally this is falling off but we got 2 more left maybe the rest of the plot will make it up though this show has never shown any regards to life outside of just simply being fodder having the only form of "law" also say fuck kill em all in the year of 2020 rubbed me the wrong way like lol that's not how you handle this but okay i guess in the world of kansai you do |

deg said: it was critical hit like she should have died instantly on that one since she taught Hoodlum that attack Swantje said: I mean, I criticize this show A LOT, but that did make sense IMO. She was definitely immortal in a sense and could survive very grave injuries, but if she was crushed in a stampede, her organs were probably crushed as well which killed her. I assume she can only fix body parts and not organs lol. Still lame writing tho because as far as I remember they never really explained how she was able to stitch herself back together or how she even got her magical healing powers. I get it was a critical hit, severing an artery is indeed fatal but the real issue is the execution (no pun intended) We know she can stitch really fast, as we saw her putting herself back together and with Cutthroat that one probably her best record in terms of speed, but all these had no connotation to bleeding out coz again she fast nor her both arms being damage coz we did saw she still sliced Hoodlum real fast but she somehow had trouble with sewing herself back? I just don't buy it coz she has no arm injury |
 |
| Goodbye Doctor, you were definitely the biggest bitch. Declaring all the rioters Akudama was unexpected for sure Return of Hacker? Hopefully? |
| What a tense episode. Doctor deserved to die but it was a terrible way to die. Good job Hoodlum ! Rest in Peace both.. :( |
| I don't know whether to laugh or be horrified by this episode. Probably the latter, and only partially because of its reflection in certain fascistic elements of current times. We have the police state now upset that the populace has been whipped into a frothing mob based on the propaganda relentlessly being spewed and have now declared all who oppose them as traitors. Meanwhile, those at the top fancy themselves ubermensch in the absolute right, while the elected officials and even the day to day cops are literally sobbing under the pressure. It was like three episodes where we had a literal army of suicidal stormtroopers while being told that all true police are willing to give their lives for murder, and now the supposed elite of the elite are sniveling babies about going out at all. At the same time, the 'climax' of the episode was as weak as it was nonsensical, and also pretty reflective of the Calvinball attempts at rules lawyering also currently going on. It's the RULE. You can't kill me. Sure, I just murdered dozens of people, including your entire office party guest list, but sorry. The law said it was cool with that once. You obey the law, right? And Lady Cop just sits there, struggling with how to deal with this baffling conflict of morals. And never stops sitting there. Which sums up the real problem with this episode. It's not all the weird fascist stuff, it's that about 14 minutes are spent walking from point A to B (which isn't even itself a destination), and then everybody just stands around staring at each other until someone… wait for it… walks straight up to someone else and sticks a knife in them. Can you be any lazier with the direction, guys? |
| take that you f*cking b*tches !! i loved it when the citizens stomp her |
| I hope this anime is transformed right into a full-fledged video game, or we need a sequel. After what Doctor confessed, I am sadder for Brawler. I really loved him. Swindler should soon face her reality; you can't run away from doing bad things while trying to be Akudama. |
