| This show is kinda fire |
 |
| BTW, ppls seem to be saying it's a "Kaijuu transforming into a human" But as I previous posted, I strongly believe the evil Kaijuu is in fact the same as MC. Since this Kaijuu seems to be new as in, he was still trying to figure out how to answer a phone call back in the bathroom. And the Kaijuu was already inside of a cleaning squad, meaning the body the Kaijuu have, was already pre-existing, just like MC. If the Kaijuu had infiltrated the squad a long time ago as a Kaijuu transformed Human, he would have long gotten used to a cell phone, and wouldn't question if he was using it right. Like a new kid getting their first cell phone. . As to say... MC was most likely suppose to also be taken over by the flying Kaijuu, but somehow didn't and he took over the flying Kaijuu and it's newly transformed body/ power. . |

| Nothing Written Here But Us Anime Bunnies *boing boing boing* |
| can't wait for the next ep! |
| I have a third testicle that gives me psychic powers |
| Amazing the new Kaijuu, he can revive other Kaijuus and he can transformed in human!!! kekeke |
| Kafka is a nice guy and I loved Kikoru again in this episode. She was on her last legs before Kafka came in and rescued her. But mysteries have started to come out about this new intelligent Kaiju guy and then our boy Kafka also needs to be a bit more careful. Though, it looks like Kikoru now knows that Kafka is a Kaiju. So, we'll see how that goes. |
 |
| Fair overall production. Great performances from the cast again. I'm still on the dub for this series and I doubt there is any reason for me to change. They are carrying it during the lull periods. The combat scenes using Kikoru were not quite as impactful nor polished as the previous episode. Understandable, as this one was more so story key than visually appealing. Production needs to consider returning to the previous level of quality on these sequences. For the rest of its runtime. Lacking held consistency moving forward. After pulling off what they did. Will be met with fairly harsh reception. |
 |
| The animation is sick and everything is good except it lacks seriousness, one minute it’s awesome the next minute is ruined with a comedic scene. I’m watching an anime about Kaiju killing people and devastating the city so I expected more seriousness. |
 |
| I hate having to wait a week for each episode, I've been trying to save them up so I can binge them but I lost to will to resist. 😆 I enjoyed this episode a lot, but I was also worried it was going to end before we got the big transformation and battle sequence, thankfully I was wrong! The introduction of an intelligent Kaiju is interesting, I do wonder if that is a Kaiju in human form or another human like Kafka who has been "infected"? |
| The plot is like Kiseiju anime BUT with better animations B) |
| Feel pain, think about pain, accept pain, know pain... Shinra Tensei! |
MasterHavik said: Okay and? I mean.....I don't agree with that. Dude has had it rough so him acting like this is how he deals with things. You can't expect someone to be moody all the time when they are legit cleaning up Monster waste for god knows how long. I also feel you and others ignore how much of an underdog this guy is and how the show frames him as someone you want to root for. Eh? I still don't get what you're trying to say. From what I perceive in your comment, it's that ANYTHING the mc will do (within reason) will be justified just because he had a rough life? Does that actually work IRL? No it doesn't. Why does it have to be moody instead of acting like a lab rat on coke? Why everything has to be either a 1 or a 0? Why can't he just be normal guy without being moody or extremely hyper? There is a plethora of personalities within the spectrum of both ends. I like underdogs. I just don't like Asta levels of AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH that makes me wish he was already killed by a Kaiju and let the spot to someone else that's not built in with the lung capacity of a whale. MasterHavik said: I brought that up to show that his loud and brash personality at times works extremely well as this is an action comedy after all not some grim dark edgy show. I dunno buddy. Just because it's not a grim dark show, doesn't mean it has to be full massive wig, insanely large shoe clown custome either. Like I said previously there can be plenty of "notches" in the vast gamma between grimdark and honk honk clown noises. Look at this season's Go Go Loser Ranger, it's a great balance between a moderately dark story and lighthearted comedy and still it's not on Bozo's all time high. MasterHavik said: There is a BIG DIFFERENCE. He isn't doing this because of friends he is doing this because he really wants to help the world and care. It's relevant because what makes him different from your standard teenager is that he has lived experience and clearly define goals. What else do you need from me? I like the show but do feel the criticism towards our MC is a little odd as it ignores aspects of his character like what I just mentioned. There's no difference at all, you're just using word play to mansplain absolutely nothing. He's doing this for selfless reasons, and it's the same as if he was doing it for a friendship promise. He's still joining the forces anyway for SELFLESS REASONS. The only way it would be different was if he was not joining the corps at all, or if he had an actual something to gain, like money, fame, army loot, being forced by a third party, and so on. I seriously don't see him any different than your average kind hearted teen that had a good education and a family/friends that supported him. Just because he's not gloomy or suicidal doesn't make him any different than a vast array of teen personalities and archtypes. Hey if you like the show, more power to you. I just felt that most of your original comment was just non sensical (not that your reply is any better though) MRD_Crowe said: That said, man, your responses to these other comments make you come across as a total killjoy. Would it kill you to lighten up a little? It's never that serious. Hey, good to know. Just FYI, I came here to share some insight, not to make friends ;) |

@Kimurah Oooh, edgelord arc it is, then. How imposing. Look, dude, in all seriousness, there's nothing wrong with sharing ideas and debating, but it's another thing to come at folks with unnecessary snark. We're talking about anime here, something I imagine most of us are passionate about, I get that part, but it involves nothing regarding the real world, so maybe, I dunno, ease up a bit if you actually want people to get what you're saying? Because the more you come with the disrespect, the less folks will be willing to hear you out. And this goes for anybody.
Or not. Just keep doing whatever makes you feel big, I guess. Let me know how that works out for you down the road.

| @Kimurah You wrote a lot here so we will do paragraph by paragraph as you respond to me. You don't get it? It's how he copes.....you didn't catch that? Also, I didn't say that. That's a strawman. He can't be "normal" because he didn't live normal life and suddenly has his life changed with Kaiju power he has now. Also I don't see the problem with his energy as he is a professional at the end of the day. Wait you want him to be killed? WTF? LOL! That show is a little different. I just started watching it. This is also a Shonen so that needs to be factor in. Though this just makes me ask why did you pick up this show if you're bitching this much about it? I have watched a lot of shonen in my time. This dude is already running circles around an Asta and Shinra when it comes to being an MC. I'm not using word play to...manspilan? What....can people stop with using culture war nonsense in their arguments for no reason? What's wrong with being selfless? What's wrong with having goals? He cares about the world and this is his dream. He has tried his hardest to join this group for a very long time. You just want someone to be edgy. You're watching the wrong show for that. That's fine to have an opinion but once again I feel you are projecting trying to fit a round spot with a square piece. You're ignoring his clearly define goals, his Kaiju knowledge, and his good nature attitude to call him a teenager. He just isn't that. I don't want to go there but you know the purpose for stories like this is to have an actual likable MC, right? While I thank you for respecting my opinion, I don't think you need to be this backhanded and standoffish with me or others here. I would take the other guy's advice as you're coming as kind of a Killjoy. I just think you're being a prick personally. |
| I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon. |
| I knew something would happen during that exam, that's really predictable. What I didn't expect was someone else was also like Kafka, kinda. I guess that guy also had a kaiju enter his body but it took over while Kafka managed to stay in control. |
 |
| still no kaijuu milk... |
  |
| I love how creepy that small kaiju was and the way he transformed into a human. Reminded me of the cockroach alien from Men In Black. |
 |
| New antagonist appears & instantly blending in with the humans.. Kafka better be able to sniff this new guy out sooner than later. The build up animation before that punch was great. |
 |
| Was hoping his Kaiju identity would stay between him and Ichikawa and that it would look like it was the suit that would give Kafka kaiju like powers but oh well. Looking forward to saturday! |
 |
| I love the loser MC. Expecting to know more about the mushroom kaiju. I love the ending! Is much better than the opening. |

| @MRD_Crowe KID. I've been watching anime for literally decades and been reading/writting comments in discussion boards for almost as long as that. I seriously don't need advice from a literal nobody like you that crawled out of nowhere and felt the need to lecture me how discussion boards work. If I ever need your personal condescending advice, I'll let you know. Thanks. Also I'm okay if frail people feel offended because I'm not sugar coating my words, I rather be blunt than catter to people. |
MasterHavik said: You don't get it? It's how he copes.....you didn't catch that? Also, I didn't say that. That's a strawman. I just love it when people talk in absolutes when it comes to character writing that's very ambiguous. I don't know, I disagree that's supposed to be how he copes with reality when he's able to work just fine all the time he's been a kaiju cleaner. MasterHavik said: He can't be "normal" because he didn't live normal life and suddenly has his life changed with Kaiju power he has now. Also I don't see the problem with his energy as he is a professional at the end of the day. Wait you want him to be killed? WTF? LOL! They all have lived in a kaiju infested world where more than likely they have lost someone in the so many kaiju attacks to the big cities and yet the rest of the cast and background characters seem to act fine in comparisson with Asta... I mean Kafka. Him being changed by a Kaiju doesn't really add up for him acting even more noisy, even with dumb shonen logic. Your argument is a total fallacy from the beginning. MasterHavik said: That show is a little different. I just started watching it. This is also a Shonen so that needs to be factor in. Though this just makes me ask why did you pick up this show if you're bitching this much about it? I have watched a lot of shonen in my time. This dude is already running circles around an Asta and Shinra when it comes to being an MC. Why do you have to make it so personal "I just started watching it" For real dude, I don't give 2 Fs about you. This isn't twitter or facebook where you have followers and you need to explain them how you personally feel about the stuff you're consuming. If you like it, cool, I'm not judging you. Just don't put yourself in the front row and act as if everything revolves around you. Secondly, why do you claim that I'm bitching? For real kid, anyone else that doesn't sit on the same level as you doesn't mean they are bitching. Get off your high horse, don't be an asshole just because others don't see it the same way and aren't passionate about the same things you like. Fanboys are the worst kind of fans in this medium. There's a big difference between being critical and just bitching (but seeing how you only seek peer validation and see everything as either a 1 or a 0 you probably don't see them any different). MasterHavik said: I'm not using word play to...manspilan? What....can people stop with using culture war nonsense in their arguments for no reason? What's wrong with being selfless?

I don't want to go there but you know the purpose for stories like this is to have an actual likable MC, right? See again you're just using buzzwords and grandiloquence. You said a whole bunch of nothing in order to cover up that I called you out. It makes no difference if he joins the forces for selfess reasons. Also no, I never said I want him to be edgy (nice strawman) I just said that it would had been more pleasant if he was less obnoxiously loud. MasterHavik said: While I thank you for respecting my opinion, I don't think you need to be this backhanded and standoffish with me or others here. I would take the other guy's advice as you're coming as kind of a Killjoy. I just think you're being a prick personally. And you're being a massive, condescending fanboy. You know what they say about people who live in glass houses who cast stones. MasterHavik said: It's like they jsut want to be prick for the sake of being a prick. This website is full of them. I'm pretty sure you're also on top of the prick list too, not to mention being a petty guy that needs to "gossip" with someone whose on your same side for easy validation. |

MRD_Crowe said: Wow. Your response only proves to me that you're the frail one. You're right, I AM a nobody, so you don't even need to explain yourself to me. Like seriously, dude, chill the hell out. Again, it's never that serious. But hey, do whatever makes you feel better about yourself, I guess. 🤷♂️😂 Cool, let me archive your unsolicited advice in my folder with the many other nobodies that felt the need to lecture me. Have a nice day. |
| Princess finally got taken down a notch....and of course another human that can transform into a kaiju...cause its shonen. |
 |
| Some spicy things definitely happened in this episode featuring a new antagonist who's just like Kafka with his kaiju powers and can also blend within humanity. Wonder how they're gonna deal with it. |
 |
| Great episode. Shinomiya may be a brat but she definitely earned her right to downtalk people with her skill. Curious upbringing though. Kafka could be her emotional support dad lol |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| Best episode so far. So it's not Attack on Titan, it's Parasyte. Much better. |
