| The final revelation of the real murderer of yuki was masterfully done, i literally couldnt stop myself from binge watching this series, i might even possibly watch it a second time. 9/10, One of the best mystery / thriller anime series of the last years, in my opinion. |
| This episode was magical, holy shit how do you make something this good. The ending scene, chills. |
| Fucking hell!! The amount of people sleeping on this show is completely beyond me! Well, shame on them, they dont know what they're missing here, a hidden gem of the highest calibre. Sure was an engaging thriller/crime/mystery show with a solid plot that had superb development following the life of Odokawa, a taxist whose life was in shambles, living his life riding his taxi, and getting involved in some juicy crime drama. Even tho, like i said, the story was engaging, the real highlight of this show for me were its characters, all of them played important parts in the story and none of them were left out, fleshing out their personalities to its finest. Also, i wasnt expecting this plot twist at the end of it, but watching through Odokawa's past and reasons to see humans as animals, that was just hard to watch man.. And THAT plot twist at the very end, the murderer is out in the open XD careful Odokawa! I'd love to see more from this show! 9/10 easily, fantastic anime |
 |
| Im so glad i came up with the theory about him having an illness that makes him see people as animals, back in the first episodes. Seems i was spot on !!! Its so satisfying and such a giant payoff to finally see all the characters as actual humans and get a proper conclusion to the amazingly crafted and intertwined story. Im not sure how i feel about the TWIST at the end, but with the amount of dark undertones the whole anime had, i knew the majority of the ending seemed a bit... TOO good. Overall, i am so glad i picked this up from amongst all the anime this season, absolute joy to watch and experience, from the characters to the story and even completed with an amazing soundtrack. I feel sad having to mark it as completed, but absolute loved all of it. 9/10 |

| One of the most engaging, creative and expertly crafted anime I've seen so far, the atmosphere was amazingly presented, the characters were amazing, the episode being focused on Odokawa so so smart because of how it makes you forget about the main mystery of the show, and it just tucks it under our nose and surprises us. Without a doubt the most surprised I've ever been watching an anime. Ever since episode 1 something about it was very intriguing to me, the characters, the mystery, and especially the masterful dialogue, and that intrigue was very rewarding in the end. Definitely my AOTS, 9/10. |
| So the "actually people" theory was true. Was pretty much confirmed for a while already, so despite having a few grievances with it, I already kinda came to terms with it, and it wasn't something that bothered me too much in the first place, and I liked the reveal of it more than I expected. I am a bit mixed on that ending, but for me I take that while Odokawa is about to get wrapped up in something again, he'll end up fine. She's got the recording pen there, which basically gives it away to me that she'll be caught. Basically a season 2 that we won't see, as the finale is not the finality of these characters lives/experiences. |

| Absolutely fantastic show with an absolutely fantastic finale. The ending was a cliffhanger but honestly it was still a very satisfying end. Definitely one of the best shows this year if not the best..... Damn, we are getting a lot of really good new anime this year, aren't we? |
 |
| I loved this anime. Even with the cliffhanger end, it still feels complete and I loved that it tied up every plot by the time it was all over. Odokawa's past was heartbreaking and while hinted, it was still surprising to see everyone as humans in the end. What a great twist. I guessed the cat in the closet one mainly from seeing the OP, but the entire ride was a fun one. Fantastic anime. 10/10 for me. |
| Wow... outstanding and so well wrapped up too, although there are a few unanswered questions that I have. The show is a real gem though, it just works well and I was lucky enough to be able to binge watch it so didnt have to wait for new episodes. Visually it was excellent too, and kudos to those responsible for an excellent anime. |
| May the Uguu be with you. |
| To think this show used to have a rating under 7 |
Just watch anime instead of looking at forums |
| incredible final episode - really enjoyed the series! Thanks Gigguk for the suggestion |
| I'm rating this a 10/10. So that person who made a comment about Oodokawa seeing people as animals as a result of his traumatic experience was right all along. Whoever surmised that was a genius or I'm just a fucking dumbass because when I watch things casually, which I did initially coming into this, I overlook those details. I was right about the fake Mitsuya killing the original Mitsuya though. I thought that she was kind of creepy, the way she mentioned how she couldn't accept her failing to enter that agency and it was kind of obvious she wanted to eliminate one of them since she was the fourth runner-up. In their human forms, damn Kakihana was a balding geezer, he seriously thought he was going to get with a pretty 18-year-old? Still don't feel sorry for him. Oodakawa wasn't too bad-looking tbh, he was way more normal and better looking than Kakihana. I was surprised by how ordinary Tanaka looked. Imai's human form was also kind of surprising. lol Yamamoto the manager was the best looking one and Yano looked exactly like his animal counterpart hahaha. This series is criminally underrated and wished it got more love than it did. It's probably the best series I've seen or will ever see in Spring 2021 or perhaps even the year but it's still too early to come to that conclusion. I'm watching Tokyo Revengers but that will not hold a candle to this series. Question: can someone tell me if that tall guy with Shibagaki was Baba or the high school student? |

| 臭い- |
| An open ending, eh... I think it's safe to assume that the murderer cat is going to kill our walrus. But then again, maybe there's an odd chance that he will survive because good life seems to be going to happen to him. I binged it in 2 days and it truly stands out among other show. Although I love Shadows House more, Odd Taxi also put me in a good vibe. I'm not surprised with the interwoven plot setup like much people do because I watched Durarara long time ago, and therefore I'm very well prepared with the incoming plot. Regardless, it's still a good show. 9/10. |
 |
| Out of all the hundreds of anime I've seen this is the first one to pull a Sopranos. Pretty dope. |
   |
| The amount of twists that happened in the show is absolutely crazy |
| Really love this anime. Finally finished it. This might be my favorite anime. Also, what do you think of the ending? |
| Hope that there's another season with the idol as the antagonist |
| The first half of this episode was really,really sad and I haven't felt this sad to any of the anime I;ve watched.I just don't get why the police never caught the murderer?How can she roam carefree??Why did nobody noticed her??This is one of the issues I have with the anime and I feel like they did this for Shock factor purpose when they could've caught her easily... I'm somewhat conflicted with the twist.At first,it was really nice as a shock factor but then again if the show was with humans from the beginning it wouldn't have change anything really. The first half of this episode was really,really sad and I haven't felt this sad to any of the anime I've watched. @bastek66 what?I didn't get you. |

| I was ready to say it was a really solid anime, but that was missing a more impactful/cathartic arc. I usually don't think endings can improve that much an show, but holy shit this was legitemely one of the best endings I've seen in anime. Spring 2021 may have surpassed Spring 2019 in terms of quality anime. For now, I give Oddtaxi an 9/10, but perhaps a more accurate rating would be 8/10. |
 |
What's not to get? How can I even simplify it? |
 |
| can someone explain why odokawa didn't recognize the girl in the end scene? i thought he was going to tell the police when he was in the hospital bed that he realized it was her who went to the agency in the cab meaning it could only have been her who was the murderer? am i missing something? |
| omg! what a twist! something that i DID NOT EXPECT! it's all in Odokawa's head! and the rank keeps on rising 8.72 top #38 already!!! haha 5/5. 9/10. |
 |
| Oh boy. I was gonna rate this an 8/10 even with all the extreme plot conveniences eg. How did Miho find Odokawa's taxi when Yamamoto was trying to kill him? Lol, because I enjoyed it very much despite that. That is if not for the ending. Seeing a murderer roaming free and now potentially will murder our MC just doesn't sit right with me. The anime was good enough until that part. Sigh another anime with a shit ending. 4/10. |

What are you talking about? How can the police catch her when she didn't leave a single clue, other then odokawa, which she was about to kill, or maybe odokawa will later catch her. Anyways, there is no way it was shock factor, you are just being unreasonable |

And she did leave a clue, which was the odokawa, the taxi driver. Wdym you don't understand how she can roam around publicly? Simply put, she is psychopath who will do everything to get what she want or to achieve her dream, just google what that means. This was obvious when she killed the real mitsuya, not a sane person can do that "Shiho and the manager didn't call the police" idk what are you talking about ? Why are you talking about shiho when she wasn't even part of the scene? And if they called police, then the other girl would have been suspected by police, because the reason the real mitsuya came to there in the first plave was because the other girl threatened her, this will cause the group to disband with 2 best of it's members to disappear, which the manager dont want. He wants success, and the other girl is obviously scared of going to jail. Also why should they know fake mitsuya will get catched when they dont suspect her in the first place, unnecessary drama? It was drama because of human fear and desire, and in the end they got what they deserved, how is it unnecessary? |

| @Kiyotaka696 I meant Nikaido instead of Shiho.My bad. By roam around freely I meant why the police haven't suspected anything yet? Sure Nikaido would've been suspected by the police but the police don't have any undeniable evidence that she was the one who killed her right?But she'll just be suspected. |

Scordolo said: because the police have undeniable evidence that they put the girl into the ocean, so whether she was alive before or not don't matter, as she would have been dead after being putten in the ocean, if they say something like she was already dead, it will all be excuses. So there is no reason the police would suspect other people when they have an evidence these people killed her. also the manager dont want Nikaido to be suspected, and she will be heavily suspected, her phone will be almost a evidence, so she will be constantly questioned, this will cause the group to be disband, the manager dont want that@Kiyotaka696 I meant Nikaido instead of Shiho.My bad.

| God damn I knew it and godddddd!!!! It was being foreshadowed that this world is not a normal furry world. They refered to talking animals as "humans." They also had pets and no underwater or flying animals. I kinda feel proud of myself for that. But to see who the killer was, it was kinda shocking and I'm sure the only reason why a lot of people are on this thread is because of that very odd last scenes. Let's just admit we'd love to see a second season announcement. |
 |
| All of it have solved but they left Sakura Wadagaki case unfinished and Odokawa didn't say anything or they just cut it out. It's a good show, same vibe with Durara, there's twist but I'm not too shocked about it. 7/10 |

| What was the point of that pen that the murderer was holding in her hand before the episode end? I remember it being in the taxi, but I forgot how it got there. |
