Damn, what happened to this anime? it had an awesome beginning with a great 1st episode, then it started degrading bit by bit and by episode 10 the animation looks like shit, I can't even feel the emotional moments here, Emma died in the previous episode and I didn't even felt sad about it and I'm a sucker for good emotional moments, it's the thing I enjoy the most in an anime, but I simply couldn't feel a thing when Emma died, it was a cheap as hell emotional scene so they fucked up IMHO.

And this isn't even about Ninjas anymore, this is a crappy-ass Mecha anime at this point with crappy animation, they obviously used all their budget in the 1st episode, this looks like shit now, what the fuck has this anime turned into?

Well this episode was pretty boring. It was basically everyone sitting around and getting some backstory of Zai which I feel like we should’ve gotten forever ago. The end of the episode did not give me good hopes for the upcoming battle between the two mechs 😂

This episode was kind of okay. I liked getting the Zai backstory as it makes it easier to understand his motivation. Looks like he's coping with rejection just as much as he's doing it for the ninja code or whatever.

Mike and the hacker scenes were stupid as usual. The fight at the end was atrocious visually, but it looks like they broke the armored suits? Maybe we'll get a nicely animated Higan vs Zai armor-less fight next episode? He'll still have to fight the main villain and other Auza enemies so we're not out of the woods yet with ugly CG armor fights, but I'm hopeful for one decent looking scene in the final episodes.

Btw, what was the point of fighting with swords if the armor could block the impact of swings and stabs? Kind of dumb

Hand to hand now please, the suits ain't the thing making it interesting
Zai's backstory was depressing as hell, dude went through a lot

Okay, getting things from Zai's (Reaper's) perspective makes me feel bad for him. They did betray him. He already had abandonment issues and opened up to them about it. They promised they would be together forever and then they left him as well. He couldn't even initially bring himself to kill them instead just screamed out their names and cried. i genuinely don't blame him for being angry.

Solid episode. Nice to see the backstory of the Reaper. Bro was betrayed by the people he trusted most, so I guess his anger is justified. Fight scene was also good, still prefer hand-to-hand fights though.

@xZabuzax Totally agree with you, especially when it comes to emotional moments. I've seen anime like Cyberpunk Edgerunners that put me on the brink of tears....but when Emma died, which was very sad and I do sympathise with characters, I did not feel that "thing" that you would normally feel when a favourite character dies. I guess its cause her death was a bit...I don't the word, but it felt like she could have done better to survive I guess. And yeah, animation, especially the fight scenes really fell off.

Zai backstory is definitely the highlight of this episode.

We got one of the best Sakuga fight scene on episode 1 and we got CG slow Ninja Mecha fight that look like ass.
Thank goodness their armor is off now, please let this fight be good 🤞

Zai's past is sad, he is a person who firmly follows the rules, they have always been best friends. Mike uses the past to soften his friend's heart, it is sad to know that the past will not change, that he was sold by the company for a lot of money.
This will be a fight on equal terms.
