| Anyways, I copied this from r/anime. It is from the user, u/darthvall, and they kinda explains the episode for anyone still confused... "So GOH is a tournament to find the "key", right? I'm still not sure what the "key" means and how is it significant. Maybe unlock some kind of forbidden god? Anyway, in this episode the girl from mujin's staff tried to interrogate the three doppelgangers from nox. Apparently, some big shot from nox appeared and killed those doppleganger and beat the staff too. To make things worse, he summoned those big sword to disrupt GOH tournament once and for all. Maybe to wipe out mujin's team as they are nox's main adversary. Also if both Ilpyo and Jin's team could be killed here, then Jegal's team would automatically win the final? But Mujin had expected that and with the help of one of the six (that hobo dude), managed to prevent that big sword. However, suddenly they sensed the key to have awakened in Ilpyo. As for Jin vs Ilpyo fight, I think it's pretty straightforward." |
| The fuck as that? We got like 60-90 seconds of good fighting scenes and a lot of Dragon ball/Naruto/Magic/Fantasy stuff with a fuck*** Furry SSJ1 at the end?? |
 |
| The animation in this episode was amazing, Mappa keeps flexing on us |
BOŽE ČUVAJ HRVATSKU |
| I did like to build-up towards the fight between Jin Mo-Ri and Park Il-Pyo, really amazing. Everything else felt really rushed and I feel like a lot of interesting information was left out unfortunately. At the end I was quite surprised that Park Il-Pyo is the key which makes me curious and really excited for the next episode. |
 |
| Pretty dope fight between Mori and Ilypo was incredible! Animation was amazingly fluid, I just wish they didn't cut away to other things happening at the same time. But still a great episode! Battles on multiple ends, didn't expect to see Mujin Park struggle against one of Nox, Like he always seemed like the big-shot among the members of six. Was nice to see another member of six join in with a pretty unique way of using his powers. Dancing on a song, I liked that. That cliffhanger though, the Key has awakened??? |
 |
| This was good, I’m looking forward to the next episode. |
 |
| the last 5 minutes went bananas holy shit lol so this is the famous 3D motion capture animated scene that director Park is talking about right so Iipyo is the key eh does that mean he only got his Charyeok right now lets see how Jin Mori wins this one |
| That was wild. I got full on old school Orochimaru vibes when they started summoning massive demon gates. Those feels. Then the dude on the roof with his drummers and weapons totally hyping the atmosphere and that's before we even think about what happened in the arena. It got wild, and it got out of control, but it was fantastic! |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
ESPECTACULAR EPISODE!🙌🏼🤯 |
| Iipyo is basically Naruto with the Nine Tailed Fox how can Mori beat that |
| This show is fucking amazing |
| Watashi wa a victim of cyberbullying. Everyday someone online calls me a "weeb" desu. Watashi won't stand for this. 26 percent of bullying victims are chosen due to their race or religion desu. I may look like a basic white boy, but deep down I am Nihongo desu. Watashi religion is anime. Anata wa bullying me because of my race and religion desu ka? Disgusting desu. Anata should be ashamed of yourself, racist pig. A baka gaijin like anata is probably jealous of my race and culture, cause Nippon is more sugoi than your shitty country desu. Watashi pity anata. You'll never be Nihongo like watashi. Educate yourself on nani a "weeb" is. |
| very cool fight scenes and animation, but damn, that shit about nox and the key was just pure nonsense for me lol |
AnimeFanTalk said: Ellenwitch said: Thought Food Wars was over the top with it's showings, but holy hell. Still loved it however. It's honestly gone current Tekken levels. Or least Tekken and Mortal Kombat levels put together. Tekken in sense it started off as a simple fighting tourney. Then it's become so much more, so so so much more. This is actually not true. The King of Fighters and Street Fighter series started as normal tourneys. Then they turned into a giant mess. Mortal Kombat and Tekken from the start were unnormal tournaments. Maybe the premise for Tekken was simple but the people who joined by no means were normal. Also you are the first (I believe) to have mention Tekken in these discussion forums. Glad to see another Tekken fan! Doesn't Ilpyo's fighting style resemble Hwoarangs?  Prob should've worded my comment better lol. I meant more as in how the games started off, compared to how they are now. Tekken at least I mean, only threw Mortal Kombat's name in at the time, because my brain at the time didn't think passed those with the devil gene in terms of over the top power haha. While the story of course, doesn't make it any normal tourney, just how the games went from just a 2d fighter, to what it is now. Yeah, it certainly does! |
| As someone who's started to catch up to this anime relatively recently I need to say that it went from "your run of the mill anime tournament arc stretched into entire season" to Mortal Kombat on steroids territory really quickly. Also, I find the Crunchyroll logo on the arena (during episode proper, it doesn't bother me during opening) really obnoxious as an out f presented world element (at least they still haven't gone full EA). |

| Best. Episode. So. Far!!! The soundtrack was lit, the animation blew my mind (someone 𝘥𝘳𝘦𝘸 that fight between Jin and Ilpyo!) and so much awesome shit went down. Yet again, a brilliant balance of visual appeal and an intense, captivating plot. I didn't expect that Ilpyo would be the key, but hopefully, that doesn't change anything about him as a person. The character design for Ilpyo's Nine-Tails form is so amazing! |
 |
| This actually felt like it was well done, usually I don't like two battles going on at the same time. and the scenes going back to back. |
 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. |
| First good episode of this series imo. Animation, choreography, direction, music were all on point and really good. Glad they spent some time trying to flesh put the sides at least a little. Also, this episode has removed any and every doubt I had on mappa doing Aot. Hope it's of the same animation quality 5/5 ep |
| Wlep, it's gonna be a long Mori Jin vs Ilpyo Park fight, cu'z while Park has become this 9 tailed deity fox, Jin's other power as _____is yet to come out. |
| Great animation. Yes, the story is very simple, and the world building is a mess, but I feel MAPPA's done a good enough job with the animation that I don't think I can give this lower than a 6 in good conscience. We're still a few episodes from the end, so that opinion could change again, but that fight sequence was just plain awesome. I just wish it had a decent story backing it like Demon Slayer. |
| Every day you can read a book or watch some anime is a good day! |
| Park is the key? His charyeok looks like spiritual possession. |
 |
| Damn, Jin Mori gets a push to be much more stronger than before. I didn't expect that he'll be using also the Daewi and Mi-ra's techniques. Meanwhile, the Key has been awakened. I was expecting Jin Mori to be one but no. I did not expected that. |
 |
| The production values for this show are amazing, just wished they cared about adapting the story so it's actually coherent. |
 |
| Hey, a decent episode for once. |
 |
| God damn I don't even know where to start with all what was going on in this episode. It startetd pretty chill when they showed more of Il-Pyos past and how one of his friends got badly injured by Taek. The first fight of Daewi wasn't to hard for him I would say but we could see that he made some progress in using Charyeok. In the meantime we heard more about Nox and their goal. I guess like a lot of other people here I didn't even know what was going on outside. That white haired guy summoned this giant sword again and Mu-Jin was able to stop it. But happened after that? This giant black figure who came out of that gate and grabbed the sword? One of the six also joined the fight. His technique looked pretty interesting even if all the events at once were almost to overwhelming :D I loved the dynamic in the fight between Mori and Il-Pyo. Suprising Mori had 3 weaknesses and even more surprising that he's able to copy Miras and Daewis techniques. So Il-Pyo is the key? Even if we don't know the meaning behind it I loved the look of Il-Pyo. I definitely got some Naruto Sage Mode vibes. With that I can't even imagine how Mori would be able to win from here on, but let's see what will happen next. |
 |
| Despite all the criticisms I have for this series, I really enjoyed a hell lot from this episode. Kudos to studio MAPPA. Hand-to-hand combat fight scenes were phenomenal. Imagine if they had just stick to that, and never introduced the "charyeok" thing, maybe I would have enjoyed this series a whole lot more. |
 I accept random friend requests! |
| Everything was on point in this episode, the music, direction, animation and choreography were all just amazing. But I belive this episode would've been incredible if the story was told in a better way, many characters were getting introduced now, having backstories now, and it's hard to sympathize with them, beacuse they were just thrown to us right now, and that took a big chunk of the enjoyment for me. MAPPA have really done an incredible job, props to them. 3 epidoes left, let's see how all of this turns out. |
 |
| Possibly the best hand to hand combat I've seen. Short scenes but quality may even exceed DB Super movies. Directing: A- Ending: S- Fight Animation: S- Pacing: B+ Story: C+ Execution: A- Enjoyment: A+ Might actually be a 9, though there has been quite a bit of missed potential. |
| Damn boy! What an episode! Straight 10/10 So much happened in a single episode that it's crazy! The first time that Jin got kinda owned but now after what happened idk tbh, is he really the key? Tbh i doubt it but let's see. And here i thought that Park lost, lmao It was a great scene tho, he made him open up his eyes. The whole attack scene was insane! Those drums made this eps 10/10, watching that guy destroying the sword, omg! And the people inside never knew about the battle that happened outside. Can't wait for the next episode, so hyped up! |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| I love when the anime focuses in martial arts more than superpowers, but whatever. Jegal surely has story with Ilpyo, with that broken leg. So, Jegal could be related with Nox. Yeah, police, I don’t know what the fuck is happening outside the arena, yeah, a giant sword, hahaha, in the middle of the city, I’m ignorant if normal people in the anime know about these things. |
 |
| Heavy action! I like Jin Mori's battle except when Ilpyo evolve lol Mujin fight with other guy looks so ridiculous lol |
| Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. |
| This show did worldbuilding and character development so poolry that the viewer doesnt care about much of anything that’s happening. It does look great but that’s pretty much it. anime-prime said: This episode was unfortunate. It had all the aspects of being a brilliant episode. The fact that everything has been so rushed really makes the potential epicness of this episode just slightly comedic. Honestly, this felt like a grand finale to a 50 episode series, but the fact that it was just episode 10 and we know pretty much nothing about anything just made the entire outside battle more of a "what?" than a "Wow!". The animation, the music, the atmosphere, they were all on point. But the way it was told in the narrative is just super baffling. "Who was this?" "What was that?" These aren't questions that one should be asking in an epic battle. It should be "Oh, this guy arrived. Awesome." "Wow, he used that technique. Smart!" In short, that outside battle could have been way better if it followed a more whole story. The fight between Jin and Park was pretty epic though and the twist at the end makes me want to keep watching, even though I still have no clue what is going on. |

| This is just another Tower of God all over again. All style, no substance. Fucking get your pacing right already.... |
| Going to need to listen to the OST now. |
