| This season so far has been very weak compared to the first 2. But I won’t deny I liked this episode. I’m expecting it to pick up though |
| what a goofy animation. hope at least the next episode with benimaru will be interesting |
| Great episode, animation was a bit inconsistent like the rest of the season but at its best it looked insane, also this ending change was DOPE, really like where this story is going too. RIP Burns o7 and at the same time a new hero is born! |
| Deep dark fantasies |
| Latom, my ass. burns is gone |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| Have to say I found the fight between Shinra and Burns somewhat underwhelming. The animaton was mostly flashy trash. I expected so much better. But that's what I get for expecting stuff. |
I have just rewatched the episode, wondering whether I was blind seeing all these negative comments. Nope, it's still great. It's in top 3 best episodes of FF so far for me, only after Shinra vs Sho and season 2 finale. I don't know what kind of animation problems you find here. Although lack of choreography maybe dissaponting, it was mostly about building up to that one hype moment. If everybody likes KnY for that, then what's with the Fire Force hatred? |

| Imagine normies saying: "Peaky Blinders is mid and overhyped. Just another typical crime drama show. Breaking Bad is much better lol.". |
| i dont know but this episode left a bad feeling behind, this fight just circled around, saying the same phrases over and over, and like 10 minutes in of shinra not even using his best shot dragged like hell. and then the last hit with the demon smoke, should be a nuke not a puff. and arthur fight aswell it never felt the level ups had any impact at all, yeah give me excalibur V7 and still not scratching like wtf? i wish i could like this ep but my wish through the entierety was just punch him well already.... |
 |
| The animation was a bit inconsistent at some points in the episode, but the end of the fight was really good, especially with those awesome details during Shinra's final kick. To be honest, I’m enjoying the character acting more than some of the fight scenes lol. Like Burns' goodbye to Shinra and Joker, and that part with Haumea and the White-Clads at the end. It was still a nice episode tho. |

| @Ki11grave You said it bro, people is talking about the choreography, but since they are primates they don't know how to speak so they call everything "animation". Yeah the choreography was somewhat weird at times, but it wasn't bad, how do I say it... it felt real? Like, when Shinra and Burns were fighting normally face to face, it was kinda weird but I think it's how a real fight would go in that case lol Still, this episode was amazing, one of the best by far, and the entire s3 has been amazing, these people, like I say, are just primates. Specially the ones that are like "it has been 5 years since s2 this isn't as good" lmao, 1st of all that was 5 years ago, they had more than enought time to rewatch it, and 2nd the animation is the same, nothing has changed, unless you actually work on this show there is nothing noticeable, people is just stupid. |
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~ Btw, cry about it.  |
| It sucks to lose Burns and see Shinra heartbroken for the inability to save him. Burns is honestly one of my favorite characters in this series so it really hurts to see him go again. However, it was a pleasure to see their battle and see Shinra's growth and tenacity. |
 |
| Insanely well done action sequences, but overall direction felt like a miss ngl. It sometimes felt so awkward and/or slow. Story wise this was one of Shinra's coolest battles and a start to an even greater part aka BENIMARU TIME. |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| I liked this episode, but Shinra vs Burns was really mid. Wasn't horrible, but the animation was very stiff. At least the dude finally died, he did everything he could this season to be an obnoxious asshole. Next episode should be good, now that the GOAT has finally arrived. |
| I absolutely love this anime and this climactic battle between Shirna and Burns is just one of many reasons why :} |
 |
| From the past, Burns' dedication to the Holy Sol Temple, being engraved the name of Leonard, and experimenting on the ways where he can get people to believe in God once again with the prayers he makes, for this fight to be the culmination of his faith fighting for the "greater" cause, it's between him and Shinra to see who's cause is greater than the other's: the faith of Burns, or Shinra's dedication to fighting against the status quo. Both Burns and Shinra going against each other with all they have, Voltage Nova vs. Death's Wright, it was a sight to behold with all of DavidPro's insane animation, as Shinra evicted the doppelganger within Burns, and him accepting the resistance that young people like him is about to bring to the world. Even Maki thinking that she can stop Dragon being the Demon Infernal that he is, only to the be shown the grace of the White Clad, it's an all-out battle. Hah, Moonlite Mask is here...though it's clearly Benimaru coming to the rescue of Company No. 8. The final arc from here only gets better. |
 |
| Benimaru finally intervened, like a deus ex machina. Leo Burns appears to be toast.. Haumea is, as always, super obnoxious.. |
 |
| Introducing a new character this late into the series is a bold strategy, let's see if it pays off. I feel like I'm going to like this Moonlight Knight guy though lamo. |
  |
| Lazy choreography for the so anticipated Shinra vs. Burns fight but at least the fire and flames looked dope. Also, gotta love seeing Joker standing there like 🧍♂️ when he could have gone to help Obi. And here comes Benimaru to save this lackluster season... |
| Sound design was really weird this episode |
| Shinra won, but the price was high!!! kekeke |
| The animation had a very nice style as always. I honestly feel bad for Leonard, he had to be defeated, but he didn't need to die :(. I get the feeling Iris is the new pilar, but we'll see. As for "Moonlight Kamen"...my guy, you're not fooling anyone lol. Is that supposed to be a Sailor Moon reference? |
| I remember reading this in the manga a while ago and all I can say is WOW...David Productions's were not playing around when adapting this masterpiece. I've enjoyed rewatching Fire Force from the beginning to get refreshed and to see that not only has the level of animation been consistent but improved (which makes sense as F.F.S season 2 was released 5 years ago) is a blessing in this day and age of anime. Sad to see Burn's go as I felt he was a strong character that should have been fleshed out a tad bit more but hey, always happy to see Shirna link through Adolla and get those cool acceleration powers of his. Also, glad to see my favourite Marvel character Moonknight has made it into this show :} |
