| Best episode yet, that was intense and full of feels. |
| Marcia somehow reminds me of the MeMeMe Girl. o_o |
| This entire episode broke my heart and then they gave us that goddamn cliffhanger |
| The previous episodes were okay to me, but this one was way better, totally enjoyed it. Agreed that it's strange Souta slipped past the Security team though |

| I like anime. |
| Tsukasa should be fired. That hesitation nearly cost that kid's life. How many times must he be told that after they expire the Giftias lose their memories and personality? When he held his hand out I was hoping she'd rip it off or at least break it ( since the show's not afraid to show ankles being crushed ). Kid does not belong in this line of work. Also I feel like the cliffhanger was just a tease. Isla is fine. That board at the end was just to indicate that she's out getting repaired or something. They're not going to kill her off this early since we know shooting that weapon pretty much ends Giftias. |

Ctsu said: lol at all the people trying to make excuses for this shit show. Making excuse when they used logic and reasoning? Are you serious? |
Fizix said: Completely improbable stuff is stuff that happens, because people can be ingenious and those who are supposed to prevent crap happening aren't perfect and make mistakes. An 8 year old kid following the Terminal Services group, who he knew would be after her and slipping past security shouldn't be beyond anyones suspension of disbelief. Sure, it may have been nice if they showed us how we followed them and got in, but it certainly shouldn't be necessary in order to believe that it could have happened. Like you said, these recent events are highly improbable stuff. Watching too many unlikely events unfold is very irksome. A show's premise is allowed to be as ridiculous and as unlikely as the author wishes (it can involve mass murders, magic, aliens, timetravel, etc) so as long as the subsequent events follow from it organically. But if the story doesn't seem to flow logically, our suspension of disbelief is weakened. Demanding for an explanation is thus reasonable |
| yeah I agree a few of the things that happened in this episode were kind of... unrealistic; I was thinking that during the episode myself. It didn't bother me much, but I can see why it'd irk others. That cliffhanger man, dang. What the hell was Isla thinking? |

| Kazuki hurting her leg made me feel so bad. That scene was pretty damn intense. Later, how she acted with her hurt leg, she is pretty cool. Probably my fav character atm. ... How come they caught up with Marcia so fast? Made no sense. It's like they knew she was going to be where they were heading. This episode is probably my least fav so far. At this point, I am like, "why just not kill Marcia. She is going to die either way." I know it' would be bad and all, but hey it's not like all are attached to her. Tsukasa should have kept Souta out of it and lied that they already erased Marcia's memories. But I guess, since he's a good guy so the guilt would be too much for him. Isla was useless this episode, too. They better have a reason for that. |

That last sec of the ep. make me wonder if something happened to Isla. Hmm, her name where the only one without a white dot. :/  |

| Shameless plugging a review site I help out with: http://www.almostmainstream.net |
| Why Giftias cant have GPS? Because it goes against the "Android Protection Laws"? But even we humans walk with GPS... Why Giftias (rented for domestic public) has super strength? To force the plot to have a "drama", huh? "Oh, we have to recover it, otherwise it'll turn into a super strong deadly machine because their limiters had been disabled!" To begin with, everything would be resolved if they didn't fucking give super strength to an android whose job is to baby-sit. I won't comment on how the boy found the place where everyone was, or how he entered it while sealed by the "bad guys". But how the protagonist and Isla went (limping) where Marcia went (flying) before everyone else? Maybe they called her and asked for information. That's the only possibility hah Why the gun that shoots a virus that corrupts operating systems shot a FUCKING MEGA BLIDING LASER? And finally, why Isla threw herself in front of the DEADLY LASER OF DEATH?! Surely she mistook it with the headlight of a car and wanted to commit suicide. Watefuck?! |
| The scene when she was close to get Tsukasa's hand and her eyes turn red for an instant WOOOOW! I didnt quit get the ending scene with the list of names....was somenthing missing? |

| Well, this episode just ruined the series for me. |
| Fear is the mind killer. |
| This just keeps getting better and better. |

Wanna bet that because of her leg injury, she stumbled and couldn't get to the shot in time? Then she threw her weapon which caught the beam and it whacked into Marcia? Very cliche, but in a show like this when kids can stalk a bunch of characters in a car and can ninja into a heavily quarantined area, nothing is impossible, eh? Souta being on site was terribly illogical, even the rest of the characters were surprised he was there. If he lived anywhere near the place, they would have found someone to make sure he was at home and nowhere near the site. The back-story for what happened three years ago was interesting to see. It was exactly what I expected, so no surprises there. I also don't get the logic of how nobody else besides Isla and Tsukasa have arrived at the roof yet? Isla was injured, Tsukasa was dragging her around, and the other bots all have their limiters unlocked. Why did they not just pick up their partners and JUMP to the roof? They'd have all made it there WAY before Tsukasa and Isla would have. And don't tell me they didn't know where they were, they were just reporting it before Tsukasa started dragging Isla along. As for the "leave it till the last moment" argument. I highly doubt being human has anything to do with waiting till the "last moment" before recycling the Giftia. Sure you might do that for your sick and dying dog, but then again your dog wouldn't go full Zombie after he died and start attacking you, now would he? What the makers of the Giftia's should have done was to lie to the public about the lifespan, by say two weeks, to set up a buffer just in case something like this happens. If you're talking about humanity and being humanly responsible, you don't leave it till the last moment to recapture a potential threat to other human lives, you set up fail-safes just so this kind of shit doesn't happen. THAT is the "human" thing to do. For once, I'm kinda glad that life got in the way. Means I only have to wait a day or so just to see the aftermath of this stuff. |

singleturbo said: They were going around asking people if they'd seen her anywhere and searching for other clues which could lead to finding her, not playing "I spy". Obviously, since they know Marcia was out on a shopping trip, there will be people who saw her. They can get when she was last seen and other suspicious going-ons people saw.What was the point of the cast searching the streets for this lady? She was "stolen" she's not a lost kid. Yet they are looking around out in the open like her and that hilariously bad villain would be out shopping or something. "We can't find her" well no **** Sherlock. Epicenter said: We don't know when the software destruction program was made. It could've been after the incident with Michiru's father, in which case, the weapon wouldn't have existed. Maybe that's why Kazuki didn't show any signs of possessing the software destruction gun during that scene? The wanderer incident is also very rare (3 years since the last), and they said only spotters were allowed to use it.Yeah I don't get why the R security guys don't have the same weapons as the normal team, if said R security team eventually can have authority to retrieve them. Making the other team use regular guns with bullets seem stupid to me if there are weapons to just deactivate them. L-Ryoshi said: I don't think the other bots got their limiters removed. When did you see this happen?Isla was injured, Tsukasa was dragging her around, and the other bots all have their limiters unlocked. |
| The cliffhanger really got my attention, don't know about Marcia but hope Isla is ok. |
 |
| Limiters op What, that ending. What. What. What?! What? Oh, and that scene when Kazuki got her foot crushed, ouch. To be honest, animes need to include scenes like this more. It just adds so much realism in this, fun, anime world. It hurts. Good OST and voice acting too. |
| I believe that unless you know for sure that you don't like a concept, you should keep exploring it. Whether it be characteristics of people or a genre of some sort, you never know if you don't like it until you've seen quality work corresponding to that genre. Keep exploring until you've found something you enjoy, or something of quality. Then you know what's bad, what's good, and what isn't for you. ( ･ㅂ･)و ̑̑ Everyday life. |
HybridMBL said: Plastic Memories turned into Psycho Pass I couldn't have agreed more. The search for Marcia is on! Hmm, dat flashback tho. Oh shit, Marcia's a Wanderer now! Silly Souta, why the heck are you even there? Freakin' cliffhanger. Although, I don't think it's anything serious. |
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling. |
Red_Tuesday said: That was... bad. Full of ass pulls (why the fuck would Souta go there? HOW did he get there? Why did the black market retriever just leave Souta to give a witness statement about him coming there? Why did the girl go into walker mode like 18 hours before the retrieval time? WHY would they set retrieval time for Giftias RIGHT AT THE END of their sanity, and not leave a buffer zone of at least a week?) You're literally making shit up to pretend to be butthurt. Obviously they didn't find her before 1:00. That's why she was a wanderer. The retrieval time for giftias is not at the very end of their life span. They do normally pick them up days ahead of time so the giftia can say goodbye with all of its memories intact. If you're going to try to be mad, at least don't make shit up. --------------- Anyyyyyyywayyy. Am I the only one who cant stand Isla? She has a terrible personality. She's incredibly selfish. Always has to have her way, she can never sit on the sidelines because she has to constantly feel useful. Meanwhile literally all she does is fuck everything up. She would actually be MORE useful on the sidelines. Plus all of the characters tip toe around her and treat her like glass because she doesn't have much time left. Plz. Michiru is by far the most goddamn annoying character in this show, and I'd rather have a thousand of her than another Isla. |
| Hahahaha! Talk about overblown and completely stupid. This show is a pinata begging for a smacking and I'm more than willing to bash it senseless. Can't wait to watch more of this melodramatic wreck. |

Michiru is by far the most goddamn annoying character in this show, and I'd rather have a thousand of her than another Isla. while I agree people tip toe around her, she isn't totally useless. The first episode alone proved her perseverance, she was the one who's conversation with the giftia changed the grandmother's mind, her situation allowed the giftia to connect and explain stuff, along with soothing the grandmother. And in episode 4 she did perfectly fine in that type of setting, I don't remember her doing anything wrong when it came to cooking, that was tsukasa's fault and they just reallocated man power (just like they did in episode 2). If anything, her perseverance is part of why she's so endearing, even if she's not the best at it. And I'm pretty sure she does learn from her mistakes/realizes she has issues, thats why she keeps trying so hard or let's tsukasa handle it. I am curious why she's so bad at it tho, aren't they made for this stuff? ehh, it should be explained since they're focused so much on her. |

| Man I LOVED this. I don't even care how flawed it is. |
| Psycho Pass, man. . this series is not very impressive, it feels like all this stuff was just thrown together into a big pile and then presented. |
 |
| Wouldn't that be something... killing off the main girl (doubt it). Wow, giftia go nuts fast. |
  |
| This episode reveal little about the past everyone on the team. Not enough to make me cry miserable. |
[/URL]
| A great episode. Some things were explained and made clearer. Plus we got a cliffhanger. Yay! |
 |
| Lol I have no idea what to say about this show. ...That gun was cool I guess? |
 |
| To avoid the plot holes, simply turn off your brain while watching. |
 |
| In some ways, the story was interesting, thanks to the flashback about the past of Isla and Kazuki, but the performance was not the best, the script did not seem apt at all times. The atmosphere was tense and gloomy, but more thanks to the soundtrack to the facts shown, there must be a far greater evil in images to bring out the anguish and fear of the protagonists. Drawings and animations are not always up to the task, there was a decline in their quality. The ending and always nice to hear. |
 |
| Wow I didn't expected that. The action and the tragic is very present in this episode, I don't think he shot Isla, or rather I hope ^^. |
| am i the only one who is angry with kazuki? She knows that Isla is 'dying' and she let her go with Tsukasa for a dangerous mission? That's so wrong because tsukasa is still a rookie and has no idea what's going on with her! |
| Pretty intense episode. |
 |
| omg why did isla try to get in the way of the shot? omgggg |
