Didn't find those two new villains interesting, in fact, they were pretty average. Due to it whole episode felt boring and the comedy awful as ever. PTSD bit with deer was nice though.

Still, somehow I feel this show is losing its novelty and becoming the usual shounen. There are still some interesting bit about the nature and Ainu culture that makes this anime special but I couldn't care less about this 'gather them all' story and I'm slowly losing my interest with each new episode.

Intense episode.

Nihei is an amusing dude with his cooking and all his talk about boners. xD

The part where Sugimoto compares the deer to himself was really good, the animalistic desire to survive is the strongest of them all.

I hope Retar survives, I really don't wanna see him die. :(

The final sequence was really thrilling. Thank god that bullet missed Retar.

I didn't expect Nihei to be such an interesting character. I really like his hunter's philosophy, it's quite interesting to be honest.

Good episode and the way it ended just makes me want to watch the next one right now.

man sugimoto should be called painless how could he still stand upright by getting hit straight to the head
also best ending song always insert at the right time.
to those who don't like jokes should drop this series as soon as possible cuz it will be all about homo jokes later on.

That cliffhanger. And Nihei's hand, ouch. Can a bayonet really cut through all those fingers in one swipe irl? It seems more of a stabbing than slashing weapon.

And after six weeks, I'm dropping it. Loved Asiripa's respect for nature and the Ainu culture as per the usual but one character and her culture carrying the interest of the series for me has run its course.
Don't believe the hype.

A drunk Asirpa is something to be amazed by, but also to laugh at as well. Not only was she cute, but she did jump herself into the hut's ceiling and needed to be rescued. XD

Sugimoto's moment with the deer did surprise me. I was certain that he would shoot it successfully, but he just hesitated, and just froze there as the deer charged at him, with the interesting scene transitioning with Sugimoto's face and the deer's face. He barely dodged the deer, but thankfully Retar came along to finish the job.

Nihei's one fascinating character. Not just because of his obsession with the word "Boner", but his hunting skills are really formidable. The face off between him and Sugimoto was not only exciting, but it also transitioned into the ED animation beautifully, just like with episode four. That alone leaves me feeling satisfied.

The fight will be tough, but I'm hoping that Sugimoto's group will win. =D

This is one of those shows I'm loving but not quite sure why, probably half of it is just the interactions between the two main leads, they work so great together.


Probably because every single character is a bad ass. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE.

Good episode. Enjoyed all the scenes in this episode. We get a little background story from both the antagonists, and get to see drunk Asirpa. The standoff at the end was pretty fun. Enjoying it a ton.

Pretty good episode. I like how we have more moments of Sugimoto and Aspira and it seems they have to protect Retar from alot of people given how valuable of a wolf it is. The ending was pretty dope as well.

Am looking forward to the next episode.

They did a good job of adapting this portion of the manga because I found the first part with Tetsuzou to be boring when I read it but I am glad that they got through it quickly in the episode....

Seems like it's about to go down.

This is one of the best arc in the whole series and I'm glad that they adapted it well. Tetsuzou Nihei's ideals are something to be reckoned with.

You know, I don't think I've said it-- I don't think I've told anyone how I feel about anything in this anime, but Asirpa is so cute. ;o;
I actually like the characters of this anime quite a bit. I was super wary about picking it up, but it's been a fine ride and I don't regret it. I'm interested in what will happen, yet at the same time, I love how they're taking everything slow. I love how they let the characters explore. It's really great. ;_;
While the treasure part isn't really something I'd care about on its own, I do like how they built upon that. It's nice.

Enjoy your anime! | Witch Cafe Wisteria

Nihei has much obsession with boners as he is with hunting lmao. And the gang getting drunk was hilarious, Asirpa just pop out of the camp lmao. Though that end of the episode got intense really quick and we got hit with a brutal cliffhanger again. That transition to the ed really makes it more awesome.

Hunt and be hunted.
The right phrase to described this entertaining episode.

A lot of thought had been launched, i might be understand what Sugimoto feel when he lost his consciousness before he shot that deer. However, once again, with her wiseness, Asirpa could be so meaningful to Calm the hearts of my brave soldier, Sugimoto. A dinner with the King of Escape just a gold comedy. I can't stop laughed with their comical expression, and the drunken Asirpa just the mixed between funny and cute expression. Its a good relaxation before an intensed battle in front of them.

A nice battle action sequences happened on the next day, in a nice direction too. The hunter, that actually the other prisoners that wore on that tattoo map in his body, so skillful to protected his own life. Obviously, as the soul of a talented hunter, he must survived no matter what happened. However, eventhough he must be so experience being a bear hunter, could tracing down his prey in accurately, had a strong self-confidence, had a huge encouragement on his body, and had a ton of ability to survived the shit outta him. He should be realize that in front of him stand a good competitor to be the survivor on those mountain: yeah, its the immortal Sugimoto! A battles to survive began. How well their battle ended up? Where was that soldier that needed to be his backup? Lets see the next one, then!

At least Retar has been saved. So, no loss on this episode which was making allright and being relieved at my end watching. Lol. What an intense feeling!

Still another tattooed guy is here, having an obsession of hunting bears. We had the inevitable encounter too towards the end, and as usual they left us on a cliffhanger.
