| Urg. This show is going to make me cry non stop, isn't it? |
...At least let me finish.   |
| RIP that dude. He was dealing tough damage on that immortal and yet it was still not enough |
| Another Tensen and they are a different league than the Soshin Also RIP to Tenza |
| Is it just me or is the animation seriously lacking in the latest 2 episodes? |
| I think this has been my favorite chapter of all. Too bad Tenza died, hopefully the others survive more than 2 chapters |
| Crazy how this Anime introduces characters with the rawest designs making you think they are going to stick around for three seasons at least only for them to die within the first 10 episodes. I'm still no over the death of that Renji looking mf. |
| Well at least he got a whole episode and part of the ending titles to fit his backstory, doesn't really make me care about his death more than the rest of the secondary cast but good for him I guess. I honestly do not expect anyone to survive by the end except the main duo and maaaaybe Yuzuriha, 'cause she seems fun (and two other things). |
| OMG! This episode was solid gold. The best episode I've seen in this season so far, and amazing writting. |
| 34 years old ossan who still watches anime |
| This is true. They butchered this haha |
 |
| I don't suppose anyone but the main duo is making it out of the island, but I one still has to wonder what the ninja clan can do against the Tensen that these guys (including two ninjas) can't. Maybe the Clan head knows something they don't. |
  |
| Now I am wondering if there is a way they could kill those monsters, no matter how strong Gabimaru is he could never defeat an immortal monster I guess there must be smth .... |
 |
| Wow, all change in one second from joy he went to tears over the death of the young blond apprentice! kekeke |
| They really just killed off one of the only interesting characters in the show so far, while keeping Yuzuhira or the bandit bros alive ugh - the worst part is his death flags were high since the OP itself so I had hoped they would defy expectations but rip |
| well the story of master and despite was good it adds depth to each character and gives them individuality some people might not like it but i do |
 |
| Are they just gonna kill off every newly introduced character and expect me to care about them because of a couple of flashbacks? At least let them live for more than 2 episodes after their introduction.. |
| No matter how prepared I was with Tenza's death because I read the manga, this episode still made me cry. π |
 |
Those visions of a possible future during Tenza's final moments shattered my heart. Respect Tenza for protecting his dear ones till death. Respect to his sensei for not being carried away by emotions and not letting Tenza's sacrifice go to waste. |
justtvalerie said: I agree, it felt kinda forced, like the writers want us to care about the characters but then they rush it like this for no reason. Overall I still like the setting of the series but the characters are quite one-dimensional and sometimes cringeworthy. The potential of the series lies not in the characters, but in the settings of this weird island. I feel like they could make it much more mysterious, menacing and beautiful at the same time, and show character development in a more subtle and less rushed way, without the excessive use of constant flashbacks.adi_exe said: Bro, this anime confuses the shi out of me. Not the plot tho, the characters, why do they keep introducing new characters, give them an entire episode with backstory and all then proceed to get them killed in the same episode. I can't be the only one thinking about this.. Yeah, it's very poor writing. You can't feel a character's death if you've only spent five minutes with them. Plus they add absolutely nothing to the main plot, they die without changing anything or offering new information about the island. |
| they're just building characters up before killing them, as much as I liked the character, this direction is getting pretty repetitive. |
| This anime shit is addictive |
