Of course what both of them did was wrong. Killing is never good no matter what reason.

But Shimada only wanted to kill them and that's it.

The Detective wanted to see them suffer and did not help victims but instead watched them to punish the culprit later. That is just fucked up. He lost all of his principles. He did become a Detective to protect his wife (and probably others) and not this.

And even though Shimada wanted to see him suffer at the end I don't think it's the same. He was provoked by the Detective. If he did not say anything would he have continued? He even stopped before.
Also the Detective acted like this before he died and Shimada after dying and being pushed to his limits.

So I don't think it was right to send them both to the void.

But yeah that's also the point of the whole series. Like Onna said you cannot judge people like this.

They are all right and wrong at the same time.

How the two players' lives were entwined & developed was amazing. Escalation struck all four involved in a such a strong way, even Decim is feeling some huge turbulence.

That assistant should just bog off, I'm not a fan of characters who just poke their noses into places it's not supposed to be.

Fan-tastic episode though... didnt expect Decim to show that much emotion.

not exactly, since judgment can be postponed.
and they are capable of preserving someone for a shot while to delay their judgement which is kind of probable since this particular judgement was planed by Nona.

the sad thing is in real life police really observes the crime before doing a shitxx cos without no harm no victim, no victim no crime, but if I were that police instead of watching I'd shoot the rapist as he tried raping the girl, I don't think I'd go to jail, after all it's a dead criminal against my word LOL

Really ruthless and evil to the end the episode; well the guy has become of the same stuff of detective. Although more than aiming at the history of the two deceased, it seems that the narrative has played in fostering greater characterization of Decim and his relationship with the girl. However there it remained ill when they have done well in the end who understand immediately what. This episode is making me reflect on the words of the detective, because I still do not have a clear idea on the subject; since it is not as easy as they wanted instead to believe the authors.

So please someone tell me, I don't understand!? Why is the detective bad? He killed bad people! Like rapists and stuff, and the second guy was good too, they just made him really mad and the detective asked him to kill him so he could avenge his sister. He did that.
So what exactly is the problem? Someone who murders necessarily bad, it just depends on who you kill and why.

That was one heck of an episode. I could feel the intensity of the episode, especially near the end. Really well made. I wonder what Decim will do now, as he realizes the flaws of the system. Revolt?
I don't see that happening. Will he find a new way of judging? Perhaps....this should be fun to watch.

Justice system has always been flaw.


Shimada died from Blood loss due to him getting stabbed by stalker.
Tatsumi died from Shimada stabbing him.

I would have done the same as Shimada, especially considering the guy was not even arrested or put behind bars. I would also take action against the police for them being completely incompetent.

Damn that was intense. Best episode left. I like the judgment episodes a lot more than the arbiter ones.

That old bastard was seriously fucked up and twisted. Hard to blame Shimada. Personally sending him to the void seemed the wrong choice.

So basically they put people into crisis situations and judge them based on their behaviour when they are cornered or under strong emotions? Even most peacefull people are cappable of murder if you push them to their limits. This system has more holes than swiss cheese.

This episode's "judgement" was not an easy one.
Obviously killing someone is bad but the guys that Shimada and Tatsumi killed deserved it.
This episode made me realized how flawed the judging system is. It's like what the (unknown) lady said, these are human emotions and it's obvious that Decim does not understand. Decim giving Shimada the chance to inflict pain on Tatsumi was unfair, it's like giving the final push to someone on the edge.
I don't think Tatsumi was such a bad guy. Of course he ended up being like that because his wife was murdered, wouldn't you want revenge? Sure watching Shimada's sister get assaulted was the wrong decision but I do understand his thinking that you can't judge someone who haven't committed the crime yet. And in the end when he was taunting Shimada I personally thought that it wasn't because of ill intentions I think Tatsumi truly believes that he's helping Shimada, kinda like a dark knight. A weak person cannot do anything, this was Tatsumi's way of manning Shimada up even though it was wrong he did so because he believed it was the right way.

Spoiler alert asshole!

I wonder why the game score was 3-5 first and then 4-4. It was obvious that the younger guy will be sent to hell.

Poor Decim.

I kinda found Decim's breakdown a little premature tbh..
Also Shimada finally snapping at the detectives last words (considering what he said wasn't too twisted or insane as before) was bit weird for me..even so this episode was brilliantly executed! I loved how the ED came on that moment!

Lol, thought I was the only one. I feel like she's just a bother. I know she's supposed to "kick-start" Decim's emotions or whatever but telling the truth to the people they're supposed to JUDGE is just uncalled for. And that punching scene in the end? Ridiculous and unnecessary.

best anime ive seen in a while.
You could tell in the end that the detective, despite initially killing out of vengeance, became so consumed with hunting down criminals that he ended up truly enjoying killing.
The brother is much harder to judge. I can understand him wanting vengeance over the raping of her sister, but he crossed the line when he killed him. Yes the stalker deserved to be punished, but killing him is a far more severe act than him raping her (i think).
Had the detective stopped at avenging his wife, and had the brother just stopped at beating him (or cutting off his dick) I would have let both of them reincarnate. However, they both crossed a line and i can fully support both of them going to the void.

Both went to heaven in episode 3, were you not watching?

6Man said:

Is it? He gave that raper a really easy escape, a quick death, not even a torture. His sister however, will have to live with trauma for the rest of her life. Not to mention that she was not his only victim.

He totally deserved a stab.



Detective is just fucked up. The girl is being attacked, the guy clearly is an abuser. There is no need to see it till the end to confirm it. He should have stopped the guy from a get go. And his excise of "Oh, he'll rape someone else then" is cheap. If he was so worried about him raping another girl, then just fucking stab him right there as you did to all those other criminals.

Totally deserved hell.
