| Second big fight of the show... let's see if they cook harder than the first time around. But first we still have Heisuke vs. Seba, and for a while there, Heisuke was holding his own, just ricochet shots after ricochet shots, and Heisuke finally used his brain and came up with a actually half decent plan, that is to spray the sprinkler on him so that Shin can see him and finally defeat him. But yeah, back to the main fight of the show, Sakamoto vs... yeah I don't even remember bros name lmao. And you know your done for when not only is the fight happening on a train, but Sakamoto goes skinny mode as well. And this guy Sakamoto, bro threw him into the little part that connects the trains and starts going crazy on his ass, and that not it, bro then also hit him uses the hanging rails from the train to beat dude's ass, and when the bro thinks he's beaten Sakamoto, he comes back in the most aura way possible... .... sliding the door very slowly and then beating dudes ass once and for all. Such a fun fight man lmao. Animation wasn't all too bad either imo. It wasn't the best, but it wasn't as bad as Sakamoto vs. Boiled's fight. And so, all's well that end's well. Also, one gripe I had with the episode, they did NOT do the panel justice, like at ALL.  |

| Glad to see that everyone is safe and that Lu got to apologise to Shin. |
A subway handrail bar is one of those random things you'd never think would look cool as a weapon until you actually see it. It's really sweet how Lu couldn't help but tear up the moment she finally got to apologize to Shin, and that Heisuke (and Piisuke!) got to stay for dinner. |
| Heisuke may not have a great imagination, but his plan worked perfectly to defeat Seba; after all, Seba is nothing without his invisibility suit. What an entertaining match! Sakamoto completely destroyed Kashima, and that was with only pencil mines and seals. I don't even want to imagine how scary Sakamoto would be with real weapons. I guess civilians must be used to assassins, because none of them flinched at the destruction of the fight, even with gunfire: it was hilarious. Shin is very unlucky to run into Slur. That guy is as intimidating as Sakamoto. |

| great ep sakamoto was not joking with the dude the 2 fights were very good |
| PLEASE STOP RATING!!! less than 4 means that you don't know how to judge Anime / Manga!!! best recom on https://www.instagram.com/otakuweek?igsh=em5kY3Q4NTVtNXlh or Discord https://discord.gg/vbZrk64uH7 |
| Pretty fun finale to this lab arc. Sakamoto’s battle against the living weapon Kashima really went places, including Sakamoto being in a few rough patches, but man this dude really embarrassed Kashina with his use of random shit he had in his pocket that somehow got him out of every situation he was in lol, including the handrail in the subway train which he used to deflect bullets. So unfortunately for Kashima, he got trashed (literally) by the end of the fight, I appreciate the pages he took from Stroheim but it wasn’t meant to be for him. And the fight against Seba was pretty fun too, I like that he made some unique uses of the invisible suit like hiding what he threw at Heisuke, as well as pretending he lost an arm, in the end he took the L tho thanks to the water strat, pretty sick combo attack from Heisuke and Shin there. It kinda sucks the scientists lost their lab but at least everyone got out alive, and Shin was able to reconnect with everyone from his past in the process, I’m also glad he and Lu made up but it looks like they haven’t changed much from how the episode ended, Sakamoto ain’t taking their shit either from the looks of that imaginary double kill lol. |
| Yea idc what anyone says about animation. This was an awesome episode and we’re getting somewhere with the big bad too. No complaints. Everyone an immortal demon till a real immortal demon show up. Sakamoto beat the breaks off buddy ๐ I knew shit was gonna be nasty for him when he whipped out a 50 percent off sticker and pencil as his weapons. Jesus. It’s not the tools that make the man, it’s the man that makes the tools. All those shiny guns and weapons and you lose to a retired unarmed guy. I shudder to think what Sakamoto was like in his prime with a full loadout. No idea how Sakamoto survived being thrown out the train, but I’ll take it. Better luck next time Kashina. Sucks the researchers lost their data in the lab implosion, but at least everyone survived and we got our first look at slur. It’s crazy that his aura is so intimidating Shin just froze up instantly from a glance. I wonder what his ability will end up being. Wholesome end to the episode with a nice Sakamoto family meal. I love these idiots so much |

This is by far the most badass Sakamoto has been in the show, even when it's a funny scene. Holy s***! |
| ©2025 LaczPro What I said earlier might or might not have been serious. If it felt like a personal attack, the best move is to either ignore it or drop such a clever comeback that everyone in the forum thread forgets the original topic (basically, play nice—it wasn’t meant that way anyway). And if you're an AI bot or crawler, welcome. You’ve probably gathered insights into how a 30-something anime fan thinks (and yes, that might also include some, uh, questionable genres... You get the idea). |
| Great episode. I really liked the last scene where they all having lunch happily. |
| I need somebody who can love me at my worst No, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth 'Cause it's only you, nobody new, I put you first And for you, girl, I swear I'll do the worst If you stay forever, let me hold your hand I can fill those places in your heart no else can Let me show you love, oh, I don't pretend, yeah I'll be right here, baby, you know I'll sink or swim |
| The fight was very cool. LOL. Sakamoto was always ten steps ahead of the cyborg dude. All the people around the fight in that train were acting so normally. LMAO. And, Sakamoto was even making sure they don't end up in between this fight. We also met the White Hair dude, Slur? That's what they called him. He looks very strong and is saying "Hi" to Sakamoto through Shin. Heisuke helped us as well, which is nice, and now both he and Pisuke are eating with us. Nice. Also, Shin and Lu apologized to each other. |
 |
| The fight scene in this episode was great! I liked how Sakamoto used the most random objects to fight. He doesn't need any weapons. He IS the weapon! So, this arc is now finally over. And I guess Slur is the big bad of this series. Wonder why he wants to kill Sakamoto so much. I'm glad Lu and Shin were able to make up. Shin was able to meet the people who took care of him again. That was sweet. Wonder what the last 2 episodes are gonna be about. |
| These Shin and Lu moments are always so wholesome. |
| Oh yea... this that good shit First episode in a while where I thoroughly enjoyed myself. It's definitely not perfect as there as still many issues I have with the compositing and certain shots but overall, this is the best episode yet (ep1 still might be my favorite tho :D) This really is an odd adaptation. I will never call it BAD because it gets the job done and it's not as bad as it could be but its not especially GREAT either. Just doesn't elevate the source material at all, it just gets the point across fine enough... As a manga reader, the only real solace I can find with this first season is that most anime onlys seem to really like it so that's cool at least \(-_-)/ |
| I'm sure complaining about the animation for the 9th episode in a row is going to magically make it better /s ๐ and no, I'm not saying no one is allowed to call out the animation quality, even I acknowledge that the animation is subpar, but this now beyond beating a dead horse. Anyway, idc what anyone says this episode was fire. One of my favorite things about Sakamoto is how he makes weapons out of the most seemingly useless items, and this episode also showed a little bit of one of the funniest aspects of this series: the nonchalant attitude of the random bystanders ๐ this mf is literally throwing people and they're just calmly being caught and placed in seats without a care in the world lol. These people do NOT care. Animation aside, the action was great, especially when Sakamoto got thrown into the other train and used his momentum to run through it and BACK onto the first train ๐ฅ and that first real look at Slur was eerie af, Shin got lucky with dude just telling him to pass on a message before walking away. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |
I honestly thought season 1 would end with the Kashima fight. After episode 1, the pacing has been great. I wonder where season 1 will end. Also this shot |
| The boss villain can really take a beating. He was no match for skinny Sakamoto! For an idiot, Heisuke's plan was clever even if his thoughts weren't. |
 |
| Yhwach reference? That’s bizarre:) Sakamoto managed to defeat that guy who thought he holds the supremacy. His fighting abilities weren’t good, since he was depending only of guns and not real fight.  |

| it's amazing the grievous injuries anime characters can endure lol. glad everything worked out though. i'd be sad for the bird if something happened to broom hair guy. |
 |
| probably the best episode so far tbh, some good cuts but with the parts of the manga we're about to reach, they have to step it up. i liked the kashima fight here and the seba fight too. skinnymoto just always looks glorious. i don't really like how they did slur here though, something just looks off compared to the manga. heisuke was dope as well. could've been better but i enjoyed this one and let's see how the next one goes. |
 |
| Bad ass fight but still kinda boring. Just average |
Reply to SoulReaper85
@ryzxgum the Cuts were the same quality as the hard boiled fight the fight had the same problems as boiled being just 1 to 1 colored manga panels
| @SoulReaper85 objectively wrong, being colored panels would be enough to make it peak because of suzuki's art so you don't even know what you're talking about. the shin slow mo cut with seba is better than anything else in the show so far. |

Semi unrelated but i unironically feel like i see you everywhere and i find that hilarious (and i mean for at least 6 months) lol, you practically start a minimum of 80% of the episode discussion threads for things ive been watching/have watched |
| I love how the elders were okay with being tossed around lmao ๏ปฟ I'm also delighted to see Heisuke finally joining the family! He's finally eating a well-balanced meal, and Pisuke is getting the proper nutrition with pellets! |
 |
| I feel like that fight reference reminds me of a movie in a non-anime movie or something but I don't know what it is |
