| Welcome tot he live action remake of GTA - This anime has become a joke, i pretty much am starting to hate it for its senseless plot thats going no where, and endless twists that aren't really that impressive to begin with but they want you to think they are... .. ... ... .. |
| Arab guy is self contradicting but better than nothing I guess. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| “Don’t misunderstand, I’m not sexist against women” proceeds to say they don’t belong in an air race and should stay in the kitchen. |
| Abby’s such a badass. So she obviously has a PTSD for whatever war she was in the past. And that reason for joining a con artists kind of amazed me though it’s sad |
| Better episode than the previous one in the rewatch. Poor Abigail's seemingly gone through some tough shit back in the day when remembering her parents, even envisioning them too while flying early on in the episode. She was even on the verge of crashing when Sam Ibrahim, one of the brothers that the crew are trying to scam was insulting Cynthia and even Abigail and talking about how women should not be competing here and stay doing housework, but Makoto screaming for Abigail (which she heard through the microphone) helped her wake her up and even finish the race with the victory, since she needs to make the final against Sam's brother, Clark Ibrahim. Sam was such a contradicting ass in this episode, telling Cynthia that women should do housework and how air racing is a man's sport, but when Abigail wins, tells Cynthia that she's not a misogynist. Big lol moment there from me. And I continue to love the heart and effort shown by WIT Studio when it comes to appreciating the setting and the little details beyond the case narrative and the cast itself. They did a wonderful job in depicting Singapore with scenic shots while the planes were flying. Even loved seeing Sam's wear be featured in an anime, with him wearing the keffiyeh and the kandora, showing the Middle Eastern background in him nicely. Plus the races themselves were well animated and the Abigail race at the end was really well done with the building of tension and the adrenaline rush provided after once Abigail woke up from her daydreaming/nightmare phase by Makoto with the help of the microphone as when she the wing of her plane was nearly touching sea, I felt nervous too watching that moment even though it was predictable what would happen after. Great stuff. |

| Well Abby has a bad background ig. Finally, an indirect kiss between Laurent and Edamura.  Looks like BANDAI is sponsoring for the jets.  But I am calling BS on the fact that Edamura's shouting is somehow making Abby regain her shit. Complete BS in fact. He's not even wearing microphones when he does so.

I kinda agree with this. |
 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. |
| Despite being pretty naive as drug lord, I found Cassano to be slightly more interesting than these arabic brothers. Something tells me Clark isn't really aware of what his brother is doing tho. Not gonna lie, I was kinda relieved when Sam didn't fall for Cynthia's thot act at first... but then he ended up falling anyways because somehow Abby managed to win the race against a professional despite going through a PTSD episode. |
| Looks like we'll be getting glimpses into Abbie's past now! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Wow, already with a politically correct angle and terrorism... |
| I am not a weeb, I simply enjoy 2D girls |
| She won against a veteran? Now that hard to swallow :/ The first arc was good. Looks like besides the main cast everyone is plain idiot. I I were Sam I would've checked her (red hair girl) background before making a deal with her. |
SouthRzVa said: like how did she won. For ones I thought this Sam guy is smart that Abby would lose and they'll have to do some other shit to overcome this.

| Laurent & bbt is such a LEWK hahahaha I love Laurent!!!!! The art of Singapore’s landmarks was so good!! What a visual treat! They were probably inspired by Singapore always hosting the F1 races & changed it to this air race. How cool!! L O L @ Clark chasing Abbie around in the pool like a fool lolollllll & I wanted to slap that sexist pig when he spoke to Cynthia that way. Laurent was right, I can’t wait for Cynthia to get back at him. He has angered the wrong gal |
 ꕤ but i’ll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there — the day we all searched for just one thing ꕤ |
| Some incel people in the anime community still cringe to insist on the "go to the kitchen" as I can see on some comments. Even if you don't really believe it, it's just tiresome and you're not entertaining anyone. :-) That said, very good episode and especially the discussion between Sam and Cynthia. |
 |
| Abbie's flasbacks as a terrorist kicks in hard. She's doing all this dangerous stuff in order to die. Sad stuff. The Prince with his fucking speech about women LOL damn.. |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| I already thought Sam wouldn't fall for Cynthia's charlatan skills, I can't wait for Laurent and the rest to swindle him especially after his sexist attitude saying things like 'woman belong in the kitchen'. But I guess thats going to be a bit tough seeing Abby is dealing with some PTSD. |
 |
| What a beautiful representation, thanks American Japan xD |
| Haven't been this wowed by an anime's depiction of Singapore since Plastic Memories. And while it'll probably be scary, I wanna see a pissed off Cynthia be let loose especially on someone like Sam. |
| Portraying it as if Makoto helped Abigail to snap out of her panic attack was really cheap. Made her victory much less impactful for me. |
| Glad we're getting more depth to Abby's character |
 |
| Kinda sickening to think how many times the girls might had to get physical with their targets to take advantage of them. |
 |
| That "Abby!" scream... was pretty cringe tbh. |
| I hope somebody (Cynthia) chops of the male bits off of the prince and his brother using rusty scissors, and then puts out cigarettes on their eyeballs, one for each eye <3 Anyways go Abby stay alive you're cool!! |
| Edamame's tryin' to be a Russian psyop all by himself. |
