| Damn, this episode was depressing, especially just hearing from the story told by Bosse's point of view. Too bad the kingdoms in their world can't get along and their actions has consequences. I also felt the pain of Boji and he didn't hold back in his fight this episode. Poor kid has gone through so much shit now. |
 |
| So much happened this episode. Finally the start of some proper backstory on Bosse and Miranjo. And Kage going berserk. Enjoyed this week's episode a lot. |
| okay yeah miranjo's story is really sad. like thats awful, and im sure there's even more to that that'll be explained from miranjo's side but.. she still hella fucked up lol. ruining peoples lives, killing them, wether they're innocent or not etc etc i hope despa and captain aren't actually dead, but at the same time im getting tired of hilling suddenly using healing powers n shit but she ran out right? so is despa and captain really gonna die? D: |
| Holy shit what an episode. Undoubtedly the best one till now. It is finally confirmed for us that Bosse loves Miranjo the most, I mean he thinks of her as both child and mother. I liked how Hiling was able to forgive everyone so easily, she has a big kokoro. We also saw some of Miranjo's back story and man that was depressing. That exchange between Despa and Ouken in their heads made me think that maybe Ouken is not in his right mind, I think he's not the Ouken he used to be, this immortality has made him forget who he was and for some reason he has become evil. When Ouken said, "I don't need saving now" just confirms that the immortality has taken over Ouken's mind and not just his body and he will need saving from it someday, we can also see that Ouken's eyes were lifeless and as if he was controlled by someone when Bojji broke his shield mask, the real Ouken is still somewhere there, he just needs to be saved. Hoping that Despa doesn't die, someone call Hiling pls. Man that Bojji and Ouken fight, top tier fight, we saw Bojji go berserk after Ouken pierced thorugh Despa and then Kage just went double berserk and transformed. It was quite sad to see Kage like that, hearing him scream like that was heart breaking. Things weren't looking pretty, my heart sank when Bojji got injured but Kage best man came to the rescue and I think he just ate Ouken? Damn. 6/5 episode, this is the first Ousama ranking epsiode that I've enjoyed to this extent, top tier episode. Next week can't come fast enough. |

 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
| What and intense and to a certain extent brutal epsiode. Miranjo's backstory is tragic as expected and Ouken is a monster in every sense of the world |

| Oh my goodness was this episode dark almost the whole time, even for the series' standards. Quite surprised how forgiving Hiling was, especially knowing her first reaction to what Domas and Hokuro had done was instand death penalty. I guess they are more useful alive, even with Domas' clowning around. Finally we saw a first chunk of Miranjo's past. I really like how much detail is made for this world. I wonder if these gods have anything to do with the devil that helped Miranjo later on. The continuation of the Ouken fight left me speechless. And now Kage went berserk.... and I demand answers! He was actually the last person to surprise me and here it goes. lizzziziz said: okay yeah miranjo's story is really sad. like thats awful, and im sure there's even more to that that'll be explained from miranjo's side but.. she still hella fucked up lol. ruining peoples lives, killing them, wether they're innocent or not etc etc i hope despa and captain aren't actually dead, but at the same time im getting tired of hilling suddenly using healing powers n shit but she ran out right? so is despa and captain really gonna die? D: Honestly I don't Hiling will get there to heal them, since she backed off and stated she's out of potion and power. Which is propably good, I think her powers would turn into a plot armor at this point. Still, Despa is one of my favorites of the cast and him dying on me is gonna hurt a lot. |

| God damn masterpiece episode. |
| Great episode! Miranjo's story was really sad to see and we got to see more about Bosse too. And wow, Ouken really is extremely strong and stabs Despa and Boji. Kage seems to be entering another mode or something... Looking forward to the next episode! |
| AISHITERU...REM! |
| Damn this episode ALMOST made me sympathetic towards miranjo and the people of houma. I’m still a little confused on whether bosse cares for Miranjo romantically or if it’s like a sense of responsibility he feels towards her for killing her father, similar to Vinland saga. |
 |
| The emotion that comes from Bojji and Kage is just so much to try and deal with :( Man I just want them to be happy But anyway, this episode was pretty great I kinda understand now why Miranjo is the way she is, given what happened to her mom and her people, those Houzen people are pieces of shit (I hope she killed them all). But other than that, I thoroughly enjoyed that backstory and seeing how Bosse met her etc Hiling continues to be best girl, and I liked seeing the rest of the gang all come together to go and assist Bojji....But man oh man, Ouken is truly a beast, and seeing Bojji go all out was awesome but alas....Immortal man Ouken is just too much But I'm super hyped to see Kage unleashed and I'm very curious to see what this new form entails and what it can do P.S. Poor Despa |
| You're forgiven! And you're forgiven! You too! Also, you're healed! And you're healed as well! Give me a break already ffs, what garbage.... Also, Miranjo's Mother is a massive clown and gets no sympathy from me. |

Also, Miranjo's Mother is a massive clown and gets no sympathy from me. For real lol, I’m getting tired of all the niceness and forgiveness. Also Hiling’s reason for forgiving is because “Bojji will save us all”. LMAO |
 |
| kage true form fuck yeah |
| hgwnejmp.ädqwsd |
| @GakutoDeathGlare Also, Miranjo's Mother is a massive clown and gets no sympathy from me. Why are you insulting a fellow colleague? |
| Watching father's memories. Calm down, Eren. |
 |
| What an asshole of a kingdom Gyakuza is, geez Although granted, the people of Houma were really TOO kind for their own good, especially Miranjo's mother. Like call me cold-hearted by I wouldn't invest all my resources on a group of real sketchy-looking people. I guess they were just really trying to hammer home the fact that Houma was undoubtedly very, very kind. Too kind. So we certainly get a lot of answers in this episode, but it doesn't feel like we're close yet to seeing the full picture. We know the motivations of Bosse and Miranjo being, well, each other, but their intentions as a whole are still not totally clear. also yeah old news I know but the op and ed are just freaking beautiful, sound and visuals |

| Kage going full on VENOM there. Defeat darkness with darkness. |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| Excellent episode; we got a lot of Miranjo and Bosse's backstory. We know more about them tho we have yet to learn how the relationship between them deepened. On the other side, we have Hiling forgiving and healing people, left and right while Bojji is getting tired and about to lose. Luckily tho, Despa returns and saves the day. Or not. Guess we gotta now rely on Kage's powerup. Finally, I was waiting for this guy to receive one of his own and its here. Curious to see what he got tho I think he can probably control shadows now. Best episode so far, coz of the backstory. 5/5 |
 |
| This episode was very good and very tense. The episode left me very curious and anxious to know what happened in the end, probably, with the Kage. |
asdasdsadad |
| Kage finally powered up |
 |
| We got a bit of backstory on Miranjo and how King Bosse met her although we still don't know how she ended up inside the mirror. Ouken proves to be too much for Bojji. Despa tried to sacrifice himself to kill Ouken, but he gets stabbed instead. Kage goes into berserk out of desperation to protect Bojji. Damn that cliffhanger. |
 |
| I'm recalling what Daida saw and heard the first time he met child Miranjo inside that dark zone and I get the feeling that Miranjo's backstory is going to get grimer. Kyuuziel said: I want to hate Muranjo because what she did but i cant. And same thing with Ouken. I want to hate him for what he did in this eps but i just cant hate him too. Ouken completely lost his sense of self so I don't think anyone can condemn whatever barbarity he commits now. His brothers want to put him to rest but that's easier said than done. |
| The wars against Gods subplot is interesting seeing that the Underworld brothers killed the last God. Now is interesting how the other were killed, with Houma being ambushed. Now how strong is even the number 1 on the ranking, seeing that Dessa can command a thunder strike from (insert how long was that full gallop travel between both kingdoms), which is nothing less than overpowered. Now that Despa arrived, is 3 of the 4 Devas that are dragging feet to help Bojji. |
 |
| So much hilarious crying and melodrama everywhere. Miranjo’s backstory didn’t faze me at all when I reached that part in the manga and sure didn’t do anything here, either. This series really loses focus when it comes to handling empathy for the characters, in addition to the already prevalent issues with the inconsistent characterization of the cast in general. That last part with Kage and Boiji being forced into a pitch against Ouken rubbed me the wrong way and felt like a blatant setup for Kage’s emotional outburst transforming him into...whatever the hell that was. The emotional manipulation here felt so hamfisted, it’s more irritating, instead. At least the Gods’ backstory seemed slightly interesting. |

| Kage buff? I'm so curious for next week's episode |

| This episode felt like it had the same brand of quality as the older ones in term of look but it was actually kinda... bad. You can still see some of the first part's greatness in some scenes, but the overall pacing/scene flow/script has been on a constant downgrade ever since the second part of the show started. Dunno if it's a problem with Wit or the original material. |
 |
| Freaking Yuuki Kaji's character seeing the memories of another father lol. Another good episode. We got to know the first half of Miranjo's backstory and as expected, it was considerably dark. I don't feel any sympathy for her mother tho. I mean, there is a limit regarding how naive one can be. Anyways, we still have to see the part where Miranjo meets the devil so I hope next episode addresses that. |
| It’s time for me to face reality, my hype for this series has all but diminished. This arc has become too dragged out and has become one sob story after another. I legitimately think that somebody cries in every single episode. It was effective at first, but now it’s just played out. At least Kage finally did something. |
| Alright, finally they touch a little bit of Miranjo backstory, and how Bosse first met the family of her. As already told little bit with the god of underworld story and how he death in the hands of his own child, this also expanded more of the story of the evil gods whose enslaved the humanity and how some nation, the magic nation, put a fight against that. Bosse being witnessed with those situations and couldn't lend a good hand proved there's something wrong at the end of the story. Houma kingdom get betrayed by the supposed-to-be ally, and its might lead Bosse into having an aggreement with devil being to put an end to gods dominations, as long as its for own Miranjo safety. But, lets save it for later story, because there's still Ouken that needs to put an end first. Bojji down tireful, not different with captain, and Despa for the last. Even the lightning comes from Desha won't stop Ouken now. While Despa almost got it, but something bugged at the end kinda be a more question for later. So, its all left to Kage to finally show-off his sole appearance to save the day. Can his shadowness eat everything out from Ouken? I doubt it, but lets pray for goodness! |

| This was so boring to watch, and this was the one little thing I was kind of looking forward to in this series with Miranjo's backstory and how underwhelming the presentation of it was in general. Everything about this felt lacking to me, continuing a trend of how I've felt with this series for the past 10-12 episodes in particular which I hoped would break at some point. |
