Joe, why do things never look good for you? For some reason I have a feeling that Mario wouldn't make it there on time before something really bad happens...since well, the little kid isn't even half way there and there's already a gun pointed at Joe. Wouldn't going to the police be a better plan, or am I missing something?

I can understand the need to cut ties since she doesn't want his past to affect his career.

This lady isn't half bad bad.

Damn wasn't expecting this much action.

Why didn't he just send the kid to go to the nearest police station instead of some address he might have a harder time finding?

Joe X Turtle, I'm sad they broke up here.

That guy isn't even close. Look at this guy, even the eyes are the same as Ishihara. Seriously Rainbow, stop with Ishihara clones, they are lame, and Ishihara was too before his breakdown. Now, let's hope this POS wet himself when the whatever yakuza arrives (hopefully).

It's really regrettable Meg is selling her body on the streets, she could have married someone good and rich with her beauty, but I guess she didn't have that choice.

Oh snap, Meg! Pretty interesting that the focus shifted on her, and not too unexpected with the previous episode focusing on Joe! Really nice development and well let's see what happens next!

Joe telling Turtle to leave him alone was really harsh even if he wanted to cut ties with his friends. He should have been a lot more polite.

Guess I'm not the only one who thinks older Meg looks like Nina from Monster.

This was looking like a slice of life with some romance for awhile but it seems to be getting more interesting!

I'm starting to think that the majority of people who bother to comment on these episode discussions are people who refuse to drop Rainbow but hate it with a burning passion.

Good episode

8/10

I can just imagine the kid going around town screaming "Mario!" like in Luigi's Mansion.

Also, REALLY? Joe's sister just HAPPENS to be in the same town and working in the same area? And she just HAPPENS to see that Joe's going to be singing somewhere?

Same here. This is what I wanted to see happen most since episode 2. But the author loves to put these guys through hell before anything good happens! ><

I thought the SAME thing about Meg = Nina Fortner! XD Srsly.

I hadn&#039;t noticed the title for the next episode earlier. Sounds promising~ -relaxes-

Yes, and IIRC, Nina was also in the same line of work.
Not to mention they are both looking for their brothers.
In fact, character plagiarism? lol...


The similarities ahahaha.

Poor Meg, she is a hostess, but I suppose it's better than staying with the pervert who adopted her.

I have to add my voice to the chorus of Meg being identical to Anna Liebert. Same character designer I suppose.

This was so good!

I mean, Joe had to choose between talking with his irreplaceable friends or the chance of being able to reach Meg; a really hard choice with no right answer, but even though Turtle was mad at first, the others were able to see right through him, and they gave him their support on his fight, letting him know that they would always be there for him, this is too beautiful, and poignant, I can't.

That woman may have been interested in Joe's body, but she really was the real deal, she is opening the doors for him, and if it weren't for those dirty cowards, Joe would be on his way to meet his sister at last. Life hasn't been kind to Meg either, but at the very least she is free from that man she was sold to, even though she is working as hostess now, at least she has enough freedom to go to a show, so even though it's undoubtedly hard, she is managing, and Mario is going to save Joe for sure, I just hope he will get there on time to sing, and meet her.

Episode was decent, but it irritates me that a lot of characters in this show are acting so illogiaclly just to appeal to viewers emotions. Why this idiot Joe doesn't want to call the police ? Instead he has this little kid runnig throughout the whole city just to find Mario..... This kid could ask any random person for help or to call the police. But no he has to run for the whole episode just to find Mario.

Jou’s in a baaaad place. I was right, but it looks like his friends are going to support him no matter what. Unfortunately, he may die before then. Ah, this show is bad for my heart.
