Would be fun they making Shirakawa say "Swiper, no strangling". That an idea for the dub.
They could explain more about Shirakawa, capoeira skills. Which are more interesting than Yano rapping. And thousand times more interesting than the dodo guy story

Mitsuya didn't even had a proper screen time and they killed her. Bull crap!
If you paid attention you would know she was dead from the very beggining... Also, Dodo's guy story is very interesting if you have similar experiences and can understand his despair.

Wow, so many plans which are entangled in each other...and there are so many ways for those to backfire in horrible ways.
Hummm, is it even possible to brake a car class in such way by throwing a stone? The glass even shattered on the backseat, come oooon...
Anyway Shirakawa-san sugoi!

HMMM...

Fox guy seems to be very VERY dedicated to "mystery kiss", so it's hardly likely that he would kill the "missing girl" or participated in her murder. He is too loyal to them.

The final scene, as well as Odokawa having problems remembering the girl (when shown photo in a phone) may suggest that the body they found may be fake. It's been 2 months and the corpse may well be "unrecognizable" to a degree they have to rely on items, some blood, "fur". In other words, the found body may well be fake. Fox guy wants to protect "mystery kiss" even if he has to betray his boss and even if he goes to jail. That says a lot. His boss may be doing much cruel and shady stuff and the "missing girl" could have been a victim forced into this business, and, in order to break free, someone (Odokawa most likely) probably made a fake corpse and hid her.

By the way I have a theory that he is a Shiba Inu dog, not a fox.

Can someone here confirm which type of animal he is supposed to be? (Yeah, maybe his black ears make him fox...but his paws are not black...)

PS
AniDB lists Yamamoto as fox...I got excited over nothing.

Amazing episode, Odokawa is a great character and I'm very excited to know more about his past and motivations.
i think we'll have a great time re-watching the show once it's finished and everything is clearer (if it ends with just one season)

This anime just keeps getting better and better by each episode. The tangled narratives, the music, THAT TITLE DROP. I'll probably rewatch the previous episodes once all the information (or most) has been layed out. Meanwhile, theorizing and discussing with other people feels really satisfying.

My current theory is that the Mitsuya found in the lake is the original Mitsuya from before the series began, and the new Mitsuya is the missing Nerima girl in hiding. Looking into what people have said about Mitsuya and how past vs present Mitsuya looks makes it seem like there has been a literal new Mitsuya since the beginning of the series.

Kiryu is here and theres a bunch of conflicting yakuza families fighting over a bunch of briefcases of money.

Is this shit gonna end on the top floor of odd taxi's equivalent of millennium tower?

Why was Shirakawa there, of all places? Kind of felt like a Deus Ex Machina.

Wow, and tho think there's people that seriously cyberstalk like that...

ODDTAXI! He said it!

Anyway, about the body found... It is known that the black cat from MK has changed, and that the Nerima girl is a black cat too. What if the Nerima girl was from Mistery Kiss and she was killed for a yet unknown reason, just to have her identity stolen? Maybe by Nikaido?
Ah, I hadn't reached that part yet. I'm glad to see I was right.

It was easily one of my favorite episodes because there were a lot of moments of Odokawa being so cool, being saved by Shirakawa’s Capoeira and just a hint at Odokawa’s backstory.

This was a great episode.

Shirakawa came out with that mega clutch save to prevent Oddokawa from dying. In this episode, we finally learn why the title of this show is Oddtaxi, and it was ironically quite odd. I like how both Yano and Dobu, two very scary dudes work for Kuroda, and Oddokawa is just chilling with him in the sauna.

i hope in a future episode there's an explication to why Shirakawa was at the construction site at the moment. rn, it's kinda sus. Hoping its not just a random deus ex machina they pulled here.

Outside of that tho, excellent episode as always!

Interested in what the under water bubbles meant when Odokawa was being strangled. Yeah Shirakawa should not have been at that construction site.

Overall interesting episode.

This episode really is something. Never expect Shirakawa to be the savior for Odokawa with her damn capoeira. Its forced that Mystery Kiss manager to joining the side to Odokawa. Good job, taxi driver! The way Odokawa and Shirakawa had a little fight. Man, just married already you both! Well, at least with her appearance Odokawa finally able to figure out why his scary stalker can following out him until before.

Then, its Sekiguchi time with his scary cyberstalking ability to surprises me. Nice shit ever, while Yano, well keep rapping, man. As soon as Dobu finished his explanations over his stealing grand plan, and called the title name. I know its just simply resulted on a blast way. Oddo Taxi, very suited well to their case, and how its have the similar taxi driver name on it, Odokawa. Nice little writing script concept, there, never cease to amaze me, ngl.

Soon it will reach its climax when Yano and Dobu done their yakuza job. While in the same time, the taxi melancholic hero driver execute his sneaky plan, everything will comes up on a big picture. However, there's still a lot of missing relations on that overarching story, that i believe will be clear out soon; including the Odokawa's past, the duo comedian connection over the convoluted circle, missing high school girl, and the revolutionary Tanaka end game.

I keep my words simple. But i can't hold myself writing all of those, for the sake of this Oddtaxi. Really deserved that 8 rating, for now.

The timing for these comedic silences are perfect. Appreciate how they gave us and Odokawa a moment to take in the title drop - the name of Dobu's plan of all things! XD

Interesting how Odokawa doesn't immediately pick Little Daimon's call or that they didn't show whether or not he picked up. He's probably the one who shot Dobu in the previous episode.

Knew Yamamoto was going to try to start something as soon as he had Odokawa park in some secluded spot. But I thought Yamamoto would signal someone in the excavator to bury the taxi. An ironic burial or sorts. Instead of being entombed in water, Odokawa would be entombed in earth.

Those overhead shots of the excavator have to mean something...
A good author leaves the audience enough material to be satisfied with, yet yearning for more.

We got the title drop bois. Fantastic episode! The whole bank robbery will definitely be the climax of the show with the whole operation being called "Odd Taxi". Damn, Odokawa almost died there, but capoeira for the save. I am curious as to how Shirakawa knew Odokawa was there though. It's nice that Yamamoto actually cares for Mystery Kiss at least. Odokawa and Shirakawa's interactions are always very entertaining.

Tapir Kiryu actually seems like a nice dude, I wonder what his role will be in the grander scheme of things. Bruh, Sekiguchi found out his exact address just based on Imai's tweets, it's creepy but, it's impressive lmao. Yano spitting cyberstalking bars though.

It's safe to assume that Odokawa's accident is water related, he almost drowned and his parents was probably with him but, they weren't as lucky. Damn, so the original Mitsuya is the body found, then the missing high school girl must be the Mitsuya right now in Mystery Kiss, ol' switcheroo. Things are getting even crazier, really looking forward to the next episode.

And I wonder what was with the fake death of a Mystery Kiss member at the end.



I assume the black cat girl we know is a replacement for the dead one, also taking over her name and so on. This is probably also the reason why they started to wear masks, so it wasn't obivous to the public.

Can't wait till next episode, I wonder if Yano and Dobu might betray Odokawa together since well the devil you know is better than one you don't

Also it was a nice save by Shirakawa

For episode 10 it doesn't seem to be ending soon since there is still the mystery about the girl and Odokawas illness.I hope for a season 2

The one that i haven't understand is how will Homo Sapiens duo will be connected to the main plot.

i know that baba guy is ruri's boyfriend. But still, dunno how they will be connected to Odokawa or Dobu stuffs.

Try reading Spy x Family Manga ^_^

SHEEEEEEEESH! i loved this from first episode but with so many other great seasonals to catch up with, i didn't pick it back up from there until like 3 days ago and binged to catch up... i honestly did not expect the plot to be this convoluted, but i'm pleasantly surprised. if the final 3 episodes are executed just as well as the rest of the series this will be the first 10/10 since mob psycho s1... actually checking my list now, i didn't realize i'd only ever given a 10 to 4 things lol.

odd taxi is CRIMINALLY (heh) underrated. trying my hardest rn to get all my friends to watch it :P

Okay this was great but are we just going to ignore the fact that Shirakawa happened to be in the middle of nowhere to save Odokawa????

Also, I'm surprised Dobu didn't even think of the possibility that Odokawa sent Kabasawa to get him. Or maybe he's hiding the fact that he knows.

Finally the title drop and lol that's quite silly reason to name it ODDTAXI. Miho's capoeira actually came in handy, she saved Odokawa. Odokawa acting jealous was quite amusing. I hope their ship sails. Also so as we suspected the Mitsuya at Mystery Kiss is not the real Mitsuya. Most likely it's the girl Odokawa left at the agency back then.

Shirakawa's moves are definitely not just for show. She's one alpaca/woman you do not want to mess with. I don't really buy her feelings for Odakawa but those two are always entertaining when they're together.

Also Dobu mentioned the title.... roll credits.

At first I was thinking the body was that of Shiho-chan because she wanted out of the badger games but why is it the body of Mitsuya? I wonder why? Isn't she the one who stuffed her cellphone in Oodokawa's back seat? I think she might be the yakuza boss's daughter.

I have a feeling that kid, Imai is gonna fuck up royally. He says he's going to stay away but I think he's going to screw up so bad and end up dead or something. His obsession with Mystery Kiss is way stronger than him valuing his own life.
