This episode is so good. Fyodor is trying to break Kunkida by having a girl strapped in a bomb around its neck.

I think it's less that the Port Mafia itself is essential and more that it's essential to not let the current boss die or else it'll go back to being an even worse organization


okay that's reasonable. but who would become the boss if Mori died? Chuuya, Kouyou? it doesn't sound that bad to me

Theory time: It's not that the person leading the mafia would be bad themselves but more likely that they wouldn't be able to hold the Port Mafia together and it would splinter into factions who would inevitably come into conflict.

Tanizaki almost got killed, but gotta admit this is the most badass he has got in the series so far. Thank God Kyouka was nearby.
Also RIP suicidal little girl. Your death is probably the darkest thing the show has shown so far (not counting Atsushi's experiences in the orphanage).


Absolutely! I've always thought Tanizaki was just... 'eh' at best. I thought his illusion ability was cool and all, but I was never really wow-ed by him in any way. But he was amazing in this episode and I gotta give him mad props for proving me wrong. Kyouka's always amazing. And, yeah, felt really upset by the little girl's suicide and how even her brother kept calling the most evil person in the show "the kind Russian man".

Damn, even though Tanizaki acts like his sister creeps him out with her incestuous amor for him, he still loves her. In the second episode, looked like she was giving him head underneath the dining table, he sure lost it when they threatened to harm his sister.

Ozaki is definitely obsessed with Kyoka.

Ozaki's overprotective , the real authors , Ozaki and Kyouka are male and Kyouka was Ozaki's secretary.

I'm impressed with Tanizaki's ability since he doesn't usually get to show it off to this degree. Some nice action this episode but overall each side ended up right where they originally started.

Yep, I remember reading that before. I think even Kyouka's character is based on a male author too but is female in the series.

Everythng is going according to fyodors plan so far i guess. The death of that little girl must have been a real shock to kunikida. I just hope he can endure it and also Tanizaki using Light Snow today was absolutely awesome.

Tanizaki earned my respect in this episode, he really knew how to take advantage of Black Lizard members and almost managed to kill Mori, but even so the group of assassins knew to be two steps ahead of him.

On the other hand I'm relieved to know that Ranpo at least wants to find a peaceful solution to save both bosses, but Fyodor had everything well-armed and calculated and his plan was cruel and heartless, poor Kunikida had to see that little girl die, I knew that girl was hiding something bad, but I never thought it would be so disturbing, but the worst thing is to know that all the effort that Atsushi and Kunikida gave was for nothing, Fyodor cheated them.

Hirotsu made the fatal mistake of using Tanizaki's sister as an attempt to threaten him, the murderous look he gave them left them astonished, because he intimidated them for a fraction of a second, but in the end Tanizaki escapes thanks to his skill , but apparently Tanizaki had planned to assassinate Mori from the beginning.
Fukuzawa was safe from the Port Mafia thanks to Lucy who kept him safe in Anne's Room, Lucy is willing to help while Atsushi asks her, how lovely tsundere.

Tanizaki never had the remote possibility of murdering Mori because Kouyou cornered him and she seriously wounded him, I love how elegant and feminine Kouyou is, although she can also be quite terrifying. Fortunately Kyouka manages to save Tanizaki in time, but now we learn that the boss of the detective agency does not want an armed conflict against the Port Mafia.
That evil laugh that Fyodor shows is only the anticipation that something worse is coming.

idk but I never liked Tanizaki. He is so annoying.

Poor girl, she die for nothing. So far, Fyodor is the best antagonist from 2019.

pd: oh yeah, a character from the OVA "Hitori Ayumu", I need to watch it later.

I feel seriously bad for those kids. Damn you Fyodor! This episode is very nerve wracking and it's really sad for those two groups to fight over their bosses. I'm surprised to know that another person can use a strip of paper from Kunikida's notebook? Kouyou's expression when her army shoots Kyouka 😢

An interesting episode. It was dumb for Hirotsu to underestimate Tanizaki’s ability, he clearly saw it in the hospital or before that, not taking him to their base could have been the best decision. It was hilarious how Fyodor played the cello through some scenes. The use of children was cruel, Fyodor is taking it too far, or the show hardly ever took itself too seriously, whatever, I’m liking Ranpo’s attitude. Tanizaki just went terminator mode until Koyo stopped him. Too much bullets not hitting anybody this episode.

I understand why they don't draw the faces as of a specific distance in anime but It got extremely apparent in this episode, that the distance seems to be really low in this series/season (noticed It in the last few episodes) -> The character is very big on the screen and looks like a mannequin with a blank face.
This is the first time I can't overlook It. Doesn't mean It's a bad episode/series though.
Do you guys notice that too?

Yes I've noticed that, I don't know what they meant. But for sure they have a reason.

Fyodr is terrifying as enemy, tricking one of the best detectives Rampo like its easy mode and even pitting the two strongest organisations against each other. Have to say Junichiro while in earlier seasons I didn't see him as particular strong has really proven me otherwise this episode.

Finding the culprit is gonna be hard especially how he's making those kids kill themselves to protect him, how sad it is... and meanwhile Tanizaki tried something after they blackmailed him with his sister but even with his illusion power he couldn't kill the boss, at least Kyouka managed to save him
