| This series is getting weirder and weirder now that we know something weird is going on in Kanto and also the appearance of those two kids, still rip black cat form.... Pretty impressive of the Executioner guy to be handle his own against multiple of the akudama. |
 |
| The show is truly a case of "let's try everything! Who cares!" it really doesn't make to much sense because you are getting this silly and kind of entertaining action scenes but I feel it can get a little bit tedious in some parts but that probably has to be with the movie they are using as reference for the episode. |

| The biggest surprise yet! Inside the vault is a shota lmao |
 |
| There goes my "Swindler was actually controlling the cat" theory, so with the locked children reveal this Akudama group is in the grey morality area it seems |
| Ok am I supposed to be rooting for the akudama or something..... because I'm definitely aren't. Yes they're one dimensional characters but If they had made them WAY less annoying (cause I cringe everytime they open their goddamn mouths except for maybe Brawler because at least he can drop some fun lines) I could see myself rooting for them more. But no, they're all super unlikeable. I wanted more of her and less of them And I wish it were a bit more logical/realistic but... silly of me to be expecting that when the ordinary good girl suddenly devotes herself entirely to a bunch of murderers who were about to kill her right on the spot and starts considering them her friends for no reason lol (yeah ik she can't just escape but that's still no excuse to lose all common sense) Hopefully it'll get better now since that ending revelation was pretty cool. |

| This anime is amazing at creating character interactions. By themselves each one of our Akudama weirdos are fairly two-dimensional (the meathead, the tech guy, the slutty one, the coward, etc.) but together these guys are pure fire, so many interesting pairings and dynamics born from a fairly simple pool of characters: like you have Cutthroat and his weird fixation for Swindler, then Brawler has kinda like a grutch against Cutthroat for being the other homocidal guy of the group, Doctor's sass clashes with Courier's stoic demeanor, Hoodlum gravitates towards Brawler, etc. I love this type of character focused writing. |
 |
| The Execution Division Apprentice was useless, even more so than Swindler that starting to be useful. And she shouting every time she wants to fight, just to be easily defeated by Akudama. Loved the action scenes. Wild and entertaining! |
 |
| Big fight and pretty cool episode. They can make it finally. Just to save a two kids? They should get the money after this. After they back to home. They did a good teamwork. But the little boy have the similar voice with cat or maybe he is the cat, i dunno. |
| I kind of feel bad for the female executioner, she keeps getting her ass kicked, but I find her so cute though. |
 |
| This anime is definitely improving now. The characters still follow an obvious formula to their personality on their own, but their interactions are very entertaining. Swindler seems to have been habituated into caring for the rest of the Akudama now as well, to an extent. I'd still wager she's in trouble if they ever find out she really is just a regular civilian. The cat being revealed to be some shota was neat. I wasn't sure what was going on with the telepathic billionaire feline, but this explains some of it. |

| Nice action and all, but it's hard to give a shit about paper-thin characters like these. This is not a good show, but I still can't bring myself to drop it. Feels like a huge waste of intriguing worldbuilding though. I'd like another show set in this world with different writers. |
