Ranpo putting that detective mind of his to use is like a work of art. This was a matter of dealing with a dangerous criminal committed to getting away with their cause.

What caught my attention most of is the mind games being played. The criminal vs detective psychological thriller segments are really well done imo. Every crime in this show has a vulnerability imo. Pretty crazy development this episode.

The dude committed suicide by letting himself be killed, 200IQ move. Now, normally i would say good job Ranpo-kun on solving another impossible case, but we all know it was the power of friendship that solved the thing today.

Anyway, can we please stop with the random bursts of evil laughter once the twist is revealed. But hey, Kunikida is free, so thats a positive. Also, another weirdo appeared, yay.

Clown boy finally makes his animated debut and he's voiced by none other than DIO. Ranpo going full beast mode on Mushitaro will never not be awesome. It shows that he's ready to do anything if it means protecting what is basically his only family. It's what solidified him as one of my favorites in the series.

And so the true plot starts to unravel as the Decay of Angels make their first move. Next episode will be quite interesting.

Damm the manager of the inn must had one hell of a fright. Poe's power though was damm impressive if a little scary. But it was kinda sad seeing what truly happened after Ranpo figured it out. Rampo giving the culprit the chance to redeem himself though was a nice olive branch. Too bad he didn't love long enough to take it though. Pretty nice name for a extremist group though.

And thus ends the mystery of Mushitaro and Yokomizo, but there's more to come, as Nikolai, who's voiced by Dio, is here. It's good that Kunikida will be freed, and the Agency will be together once more. Seems like the real plot begins next week.

Knew the moment things won't end well for the dude when it looked like he can have a new start again through that work proposal Ranpo gave him and indeed it happened.

New bad villain with that ever so recognizable voice is already looking like a bad news. Can't wait for the rest of the cast to show up from next episode.

This turned out to be one hell of a case and this must be real hard on Rampo. After all he did, he succeeded only to fail at the end again.

With Kunikida in jail, Ranpo was not backing down. Happy it worked out for everyone... or not. Holy cheeseballs that was one heck of a twist. Wonder what Fyodor is cooking up next.

Can't believe it took me this long to realize how similar their names are.

All these twists and turns, but finally the case was solved. It almost looked as if Mushitaro could have a fresh start, but Roswaal Brando came in at the end to shake things up. Crazy cliffhanger.

Yup, he admired Western mystery writers, especially Poe, so his pen name Edogawa Ranpo is the Japanese rendering of Edgar Allan Poe. 
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Another time Rampo steals the show. Next episodes will return the entire cast against the villains. Hope won’t have an anticlimactic final of the series like previous ones

I really love BSD but sometimes when I’m reading the subs, my brain just hears blah blah blah. At some point in this episode I realized my brain had entered the blah blah mode. So yeah they solved the case, but don’t quiz me on it. Lol 😆

as soon as the back of the officer's head showed white hair, knew staight away something's about to go down.
nikolai voiced by takehito koyasu i.e dio/takasugi is very cool.
feel for mushitaro meeting his demise tho, his final scene was well done.

Nikolai had a very eye-catching appearance but unfortunately I hated everyone who joined Fyodor's side. I really want to like him though....

I accidentally got spoilers from my friend about what will happen in this arc and honestly I'm not ready. T--T

nice resolve to murder mystery.

kinda sad he died tho. things arent looking well at all.

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.


I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death.

I wish Ranpo could be serious all the time. I can't stand it when he and Dazai act like idiots 90% of the time. The author's comedy always misses the mark but I guess the gap is what makes these characters attractive to fangirls.

Ranpo is the best thing about this show atm. Which is crazy. I never found him that interesting until this season. But that novel adaption and this two piece of episodes really show just how cool he can be. I'm looking forward to the rest of the season carrying on this level of quality.

 I'm rooting for this season to beat season 2, and it sounds like it this season is gonna take the throne when every thing is said and done. Also, I couldn't tell that was DIO. Maybe I wasn't paying enough attention. Gogol is gonna have to go hard if he wants to beat Name as a villain in Orphen. Now THAT was a performance worthy of DIO.

Poor mushitaro.

He was shown as the villain for the majority of the two episodes, but in that short time when the truth was revealed, I really loved his character and was hopeful to see him thrive together with the rest of the people from the agency.
Sadly, we'll never get to see that. In the end, the reality was that he was a kind person deep down. F*ck that Froyo man whatever his name is.
