| I think it's funny how Takemitchi carries Draken making his wounds even worse. Without even trying to stop the bleeding nor calling an ambulance. This guy definitely didn't pay attention during first aid. Even though I have to say he was quite useful this episode. |

| I know a man's got his honour... But if you disarm a guy with a knife that has just stabbed you and your friend, and then choose to throw the knife away. Ehhh, I don't know about that one boss. This is an anime however, so it's not the same to real life of course, allowing Takemichi to fortunately win his bet legitimately. These gangs are pretty stupid too - not to say that gangs are particularly known for their intellect. They never seem to commit to the job. In the first Toman vs Moebius, they all just stood around in the factory waiting to be beat up, and now they just watched their leader get beat up. The boys came just in time too, but were swiftly taken care off, and even though they were out numbered, none of them pursued Takemichi and Draken - who were essentially dying x sitting ducks. I know this show is about school delinquents, but these kids should've paid attention to first-aid. They all just stood there looking down at Draken bleeding out. Then while Takemichi is getting stabbed and beaten up, the girls just spectate instead of tending to, or at least properly covering Draken's wounds. There's plenty to love about this show. However, I just wanted to vent some of the things that make me question it. |

| Oh damn shit. Whats happening here? They really got me pretty hard before by how they ended the story. Then, here i am now surprised with how the plot went intensified all of a sudden. Thanks to the crybaby hero, Takemichi, finally acted decently, not a lame and dumb Takemichi before. But this time, he took a fair revenge over those real piece of crap, Kiyomasa. As a twist, the episode really served well to make me care all of those battle cry from Takemichi, and no joke, thats a good goosebump over there. The fight scene also surprisingly very good. I like Mikey vs Hanma more. But, Takemichi prove to me once again that a short dude can't be underestimated, no matter what shit. Kiyomasa simply underestimate the situations, and Takemichi executed it nicely and took him down completely. Overall, its a very intense and so enjoyable episode. Get a little chuckle when the reinforcement coming in, and Takemichi friend pose simply bring me another laugh. But, yeah, overall a very good episode here, ngl. Now come, you snail ambulance. Save their ass out of those shit! |

ttcchen said: Why did they cut out the animation of Takemichi going from biting Kiyomasa to putting him in a choke hold? They showed us the raining sky for like 5 seconds then suddenly switched to him switching positions. It was so weird. Was there something to hide/censor in that scene?? Not censor but how he pulled that off. I'm willing to let that slide if the show continues to entertain me but it truly was weird and in some way lame. |
 |
| I thought Draken was gonna pass out again. Where was that ambulance? Kyoto? It made me think of "911 Is A Joke" by Public Enemy. It's really odd to be in the middle of an anime with Flava Flav stuck in your head. "I called 911 a long time ago. Don't you see how late they're reacting?" |
| There will be how many episodes of this anime? Will it make sense in the future or it'll be senseless forever? |
| If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time. Watch more movies, please. Perhaps, this is hell. |
| I think this is one of the best episodes so far! Takemichi finally getting over his trauma from his first life and defeating kiyomasa. I like how he didn't defeat him using a punch but rather with biting and choking because he's weak. The censorship was weird but in the uncensored version he dodged kiyomasa's strike, got behind him and got him in a chokehold while kiyomasa was still processing his punch. Mikey and Hanma's fight, on the other hand, was really good. It shows how Mikey's got martial arts experience (proper punches and roundhouse kicks) and how Hanma was experienced in fighting too. Their fight was very different from takemichi's desperate fighting. I like mikeys trust in takemichi to get draken to safety. Btw if takemichi wasn't there, draken would've probs bled to death right there cuz no one would've noticed him on time. Also Hina. Wow Hina did a great job this episode too. She called the ambulance and called the Mizo gang for backup. If it weren't for her, takemichi would've probs been stabbed again. Also thank you akkun for that punch, Mizo gang are a good bunch of bros |
 |
| If this anime had good animation, it would be a 10/10 |
under”Mebius” is my salvation  |
| This is one of those animes where you can easily forget about the lack in animation because the story is SO FUCKING GOOD. This episode has to be by far one of the best in the anime, character development was over the moon for this one, this shit is so good. |
 |
| You know a show is good when it can make 25 minutes feel like 5 minutes. |
 |
| Takemichi managed to take down Kiyomasa, he improved a lot just in this episode alone. I hope to see him be less of a crybaby going forward and actually be able to confidently stand his ground in future fights. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| Takamichi was pretty cool there. |
 |
| Takemichi is kinda dumb. And he's a pessimist. Before things really end he always come to the worst possible conclusion first. Hate that annoying aspect of his. |
| This is the intense episode I needed today. Takemichi was actually able to take Kiyomasa down, and he did it almost dying. I'm not surprised to see Draken alive, and fighting the hoodlums at 1 hp. I'm curious to know how many episodes there will be in this season, and am very hyped for the next episode to release. |
 |
| Takimitchy won one-on-one against Kiyomasa using neck strangle pin asphyxiation! and his friends are the reinforcements! good thing Draken is still conscious! 5/5. |
 |
| I swear yet again this episode felt like it was over in five minutes. Maybe it's thanks to the contrast of watching the other two anime that air on saturday, vivy and 86, both which feel like they take forever for an episode to end. I like how takemitchy doesn't all of a sudden dig deep down and find some oh so unknown hidden power and manage to take everybody down. Instead he is still his weak self but with great resilience. He wins by holding his ground. At first I didn't like the ex machina of his friends showing up and saving the day, but then they get beat up as well. But just like takemitchy, they too show that they are resilient and even though they are weak, they hold off and buy enough time for the ambulance to arrive. Or maybe these guys are just dumb for toying with their prey for too long. Either way, I was entranced the entire time and 20 minutes literally felt like 5 |
  NYANPASU  whiskey tango foxtrot |
| it is really hard to believe that Takimichi's friends got there before the f ambulance or police??/ are u f kidding me???? those kids are fighting in public places and in the middle of neighbourhoods and no one literally no one thought of calling the police?? now give me a break and also how stupid is Takimichi? am really curious. CALL THE FUCKING AMBULANCE!!!!! |
| Never thought seeing someone get choked would satisfy me, anyways I like Takemirchy didn't just gave up and stood to protect Draken even in that dire situation. |
    ═════════════════════════════ You're going to be all right. You just stumbled over a stone in the road. It means nothing. Your goal lies far beyond this. Doesn't it? I'm sure you'll overcome this. You'll walk again... soon. ═════════════════════════════  |
| this ep had to have been my fave ep yet, the fact that MC didnt run and fought and won was amazing and then his friends showing up like they did overall was a pretty amazing ep am really looking forward to next ep |
| "one step at a time" |
| Great episode! Definitely the best episode so far. The build up to Takemichi finally standing up for himself was great. Yeah, it was pretty painful watching him before but it was worth the wait to see him be the badass he is. Well that explains Takemichi's scar on his hand in the op. Didn't expect that stabbing damn, I forgot Kiyomasa had that knife. Look at our boys go, they getting beat up, but they getting beat up while smiling. Censorship was ass though, what the fuck was that cut to the rainy sky and then suddenly, Takemichi's choking the living hell out of Kiyomasa. Mikey got that budget this episode though lmao, he looked great out there beating up Hanma. Looking forward to the next episode, we fucking won boys, Draken ain't dead. |

Joel77 said: Well good to know Draken is still alive...Good episode Lets hope he stays that way. |
| People talk about a redemption arc, this is what I picture! Takemichi isn’t the blubbering loser I’d thought he’d be. |

I'm willing to let that slide if the show continues to entertain me but it truly was weird and in some way lame. yes there was a sensor part, the manji symbol on kiyomasa's uniform was shown for a bit when he swing up his arms. Kiyomasa swung some punches while takemichi doges then eventually get on his back. |
| Yet another episode just FLEW PAST. I caught myself going wut!!!!! when the episode ended. Too fast!!!! Tokyo Revengers is definitely binge-worthy. So hypocritical of them to call him out for biting Kiyomasa when Kiyomasa fucking went at an unarmed person with a knife like shut the fuck up lol I deadass thought Baji or someone from Toman would come out from the bushes & help fight them but it was Akkun!!!!!(& co.) I teared up a little. I want Akkun to be saved too. And they knew it would be a losing fight anyway but it would buy them some time before the ambulance arrived. Some of the best bros around. |
 ꕤ but i’ll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there — the day we all searched for just one thing ꕤ |
| when Takemichi is literally carrying Draken to the hospital: excuse me call an AMBULANCE??? when Hina and Emma said they called: Finally people with BRAINS when Ambulance-kun takes forever: ..... when Ambulance-kun finally arrives: thank the good lord That entire fight could've been avoided if Takemichi had called an ambulance from the start and gone somewhere safe, but anime logic ofc. Maybe now he'll stop being a little wimp, waited ten eps for it to happen tbh. I still really love this show but can't get over the censorship of the manji symbols lol pls.... |
| just kill takemechi. i really like how he's so confident before fighting lmao |
| In the last ep I said about how Takemichi's weakness was getting tedious but I take that back because that was the perfect time and way to light that fire in him that is gonna slowly change him for the better. Not only that but it was done in a way that was completely believable for his character; though he dug deep & gathered his courage he was still terrified and still got his ass kicked before taking Kiyomasa down. Takemichi's tendency to stubbornly refuse to give up is actually affecting the events of the past too - he's inspired Akkun & the others to step up their game and it shows that even the times when he isn't physically strong he still has the ability to change small things around him that could eventually change the future in a big way. |

Manga18 said: Will takemichi ever make a smart choice -ask for help from mickey instead of trying to do something -piggyback Draken instead of calling an ambulance (and bringing him in a side road) -decide to fight the most unwinnable fight of the ones he did -when he had the chance to use a knife (the only way to try win the fight) he threw it away Fighting against all odds is not bravery or manning up, is being crazy Also no way he can take the back of the opponent from that position (huggin him from the front). Agree with all this. I don't understand the claims that he's developed. He still makes the worst decisions at every point. The issue has never been that he's a coward aside from what we're told his life was like offscreen. It's been that he's incapable. He always attacks something in the most useless way while other people do something actually useful like call for the ambulance or backup. He really showed them dragging Draken on his back. Showed them that... Hina could show up with an answer that made his effort almost irrelevant. And it's only fantasy logic that bouncing him around like that wasn't what finished Draken off. There's so many places he could have been helpful in a way that made sense. Warning people, calling the ambulance, attempting to distract Kiyomasa, but instead he throws himself at the guy who destroyed him twice, gets stabbed, and completely implausibly wins anyway. Feeling disappointed. I was ready to accept iffy logic for time travel and some rule of cool like his first fight with Kiyomasa, but you gotta have some logic. It's not satisfying when the win completely rides on plot armor. It's exciting and quick enough that I don't really want to give it up yet, but I hope it turns around. |
| okay that was one of if not the best episode yet I'm so glad kiyomasa got choked out lmaoooooooo bitch it looks like mikeys got his hands full but he's dealing most of the shots so it should be over soon the other guy will probably retreat so far so good |

And I hope he starts to move a bit faster in general. Right now, he's physically and mentally on par with the sloths in Zootopia 😩 |

Also thank you akkun for that punch, Mizo gang are a good bunch of bros And im also so proud of hina this weak! She not only called the ambulance but also ran away with emma when takemichi told her to. This has got to be the first time i see a female lead be useful and doesn't stay to be a hindrance or hostage material!! I love it!! |
