It is good that this episode gave light to other D-Agency members. I don't know why, but I am not a big fan of how fast things transcended. I would give it a perfect five if it weren't for that. I feel like they didn't build up the tension on the things that are about to go wrong. Even so, I still loved the concept for the third episode. The idea of him going undercover as an exchange student to find out more about the Resistance was great. Looking forward for the next one because the anime seems to get better and better every week. ^ _ ^

The only problem I have with this anime is getting to know whose who... In terms of character designs there isn't really any hard distinctive features between one another. Especially with the face structure.

I hope that this was first and last episode with memories and they will not show previous story of every member from D agency...

Nice side story about little attack on titan guy. Slightly worried it will be too episodic and hard to keep track of everyone.

Episode that does not much regret the first two, but it is not keeping pace of the previous because it is less interesting on the plot plan. I hope that the series will not hubs "only" through self-conclusive episodes, the rest is great.

Great episode about the war in France. Shimano is very smart, I liked how he handled the fact that he lost his memory. All the information seem true and it's a good thing.

It was a fast yet nice summary on the early "Résistance". The memory loss suffering secret agent thing was useless in my opinion, but I usually dislike this idea wherever I see it.

4/5

The biggest shame for me is that I wish the characters had actually been speaking French the entire episode, instead of Japanese. It just didn't sit well for me to be watching a bunch of French resistance fighters speaking Japanese.

Don't watch Noir. ^^ I expected to hear the word Résistance only and was quite surprised to get the "collabo(rateur)" too actually. It was funny.

@KoreaWS Thank you for the list, I wasn't sure about some things too but it turned out to be just my imagination.

Ooooh so we're going for an episodic route?

Indeed. The novel is a collection of "cases" taking place in various locations (in Japan, China, Europe...)

Guys do any of you know who is the agent being highlighted because I am pretty sure Shimano is just an Alias

This episode was amazing!
I love how this episode evolved, despite that he lost his memory, he never revealed his secrets, like his boss said, even if you lose your memory you have to keep these basic informations in your subconscious.
That plot twist at the end, all that time he was investigating them and everything that happened in those days...he did it xD
Loved this episode, because i love WW2 related stuff and this one was epic, i really hope there will be more episodes like this one.

Ok, the only thing that bothers me is: why does he only have a visa for 90 days if he's going to stay for a year?!
Like, isn't that completely unpractical for a spy who wants to stay invisible?!
Or did they only give visas for max. 90 days?!
Does, by chance, anyone happen to know this? Or does someone have a super smart explanation why it's like that?

Kept me glued to it the entire episode, even if it felt a bit filler-ish (they are probably going somewhere with the mission "results").

Marie should keep the glasses.

Wow, this was an exciting episode! Lots of espionage, as promised from the summary of the show. I really enjoyed it!
You can't blame Marie for wanting to protect her family.

Is there are reason this episode was several years after the last one? Is the rest of the series going to be jumping around to show where everyone went on their missions or something?

So why did Lieutenant Colonel Yuuki offer to let Shimano stay?

And what happened to Alain? Are we meant to assume that he died in another Resistance mission or that he was killed soon after he and Shimano parted ways?

Good episode even nothing great happened.
I wonder why everyone's complaining about the stuff and dates, even we've been told the dates etc aren't always right.

Love this episode with all the little twists. My concern now is if this anime will continue being so episodic? I'm generally not a fan of shows like that so I hope it won't end up that way >_<

I was annoyed by the censorship of Swastika in the Nazi Uniform !! They did the same with Emperor Hirohito's picture in the first two episodes
If there is something that doesn't go well with an artwork that claims inspiring from real history, it's CENSORSHIP that falsify the truth!
even Disney do not censor their Anti-Nazi Propaganda
Has Japanese studio started censoring themselves?

WTF! 2 years have passed?
Amnesia.
Dat explosion.
Marie always taking his side. Hmm....
WTF! Marie what are you doing?
WTF Jean!
Betrayal alley.

Another good episode.

This anime needs some serious Historical lessons, because It got all of it wrong.


I think you don't realize how mind-blowing this must have been for people back then that a country as powerful as France would get occupied by Germany which at the time was a starving nation hit by mass unemployment and the full effect of the 1929 crash of wall street.

I just assumed Yuuki was saying Japan is about to ally with Japan. If you want to fight the germans this is your last chance.

The script and direction of this anime is very impressive. I can tell this is going to one of those intense and mysterious animes which is exactly my taste.
