Well I'm not a bit surprised..

Shuusaku Matobai is still ruthless as ever with his tactics. No wonder Kogane also went into rage mode to try and kill him. However, that's not going to bring her father back so I feel pretty bad for the girl. Episode had a more emotional feel to it even though Azuma's sister still pours her eccentric energy into the show. I expect the show to focus more on her for remainder of the season.

Wow. Still the same hatred. I really paused the video and cried the moment Shuusaku bow. Can't handle the tears. :( First tears of the season

It really pains me to see that Kaoruko is being set up by that Guy person. If only she stopped for a bit and listened to what his brother had to say..... Now she is going to be the heart of a cursed Bubuki that drove her previous owner to madness and have mental problems.

Reoko-sama didn't suffer so much for this.

Well someone got tricked badly here. Guess the conflict between siblings will actually get serious, maybe even last until the final battle.

Damn killer loli is back. Also Reoko is still okay, albeit in prison. Don't know if she'll be "rescued" or not.

Kaoruko really should have been disciplined more as a child, becuz all i see in her is a spoiled brat who needs an ass whooping

The whole scene with Matobai felt underwheming to me, but then again, then again...
And the ending is a waste of sorts. 90 seconds not showing interesting characters and hinting the plot, hmmmmmmm... Everything else was fine, considerably.

I've said it before but I'm kind of impressed how the animators are able to pull off powerful emotions through facial expressions like Kogane's killer face with CGI

If only shows like Berserk 2016 would stop ruining people's perception of CGI, it CAN be done without having to resort to 2D animation to pull off powerfull emotions

Agreed, this anime has done absolutely fantastic work with CGI. This should be the minimum standard for CGI anime.

Well it's kinda waste, kogane should can know this in season 1, so in season 2 so they can use another plot to open, since we already know the fact in season 1.
He actually not intend to kill Genma.

Yeah and Kaoruko still not even want to listen Azuma, i wonder the flashback while their father left Kaoruko in Taiwan, i want to know this fact, because ofc it was a mistake left child alone. Her mental and attitude will change, and seems Kaoruko was admire "Guy" as her father, or something like that.

Well i wonder what will happen with reoko, will Entei contract with reoko will ended or no. Well ofc i wish Entei always with be Reoko, since Reoko has take the curse contract with Entei, her body and memory.

That's why i think this episode it was okay.
Kogane hate should be ended or gone in season 1, and tell the truth what actually happen that time then Azuma and Kaoruko can be separated.

All this Matobai story was already obvious/known since the 2nd quarter of the anime... sure it was nice to see the full flashback but it was also a loss of time.

Meanwhile, the desperately blind Kaoruko is chosen to be Entei's next pilot. Doesn't this mean she will have to take the heart's role over (with the doom)? And more importantly for me, what will then happen to Reoko's life (maintained by Entei)?

3.5+/5


edit: @Daniel_Naumov Thank you.

Something I forgot about the translation (of Crunchyroll US?): is "tl;dr" even a word to begin with? No. Has it ever been used in spoken dialogues? No. What does it do exactly in the iddle of a subtitled video line? I doubt the japanese dialogue used some kind of non-word not even present in dictionnaries.

As I am seeing it they keep Reoko alive since she IS the heart of Entei, making Entei actually exist. Without her, it would be a "lifeless", mere carcass without any power. She is just going to pilot Entei, not actually become it's heart. Though what consequences it might have, is a question.

Not a fan of them recycling an entire episode from last season for this. They went through this whole Kogane hates the hat dude thing last season already, why the need to spend another episode on this again? The time would have been better spent developing this year's story.

The only thing that was developed was that Azuma and Co. now know that Guy has ulterior motives and is holding Reoko captive. The last 8 minutes of this episode could have been used on something else really...

Must say though, the fight at the beginning was pretty good. That the Taiwan dude's arms and legs have grown to like Azuma's team was nice to see.

Nothing else to note really... the less dumbass Kaoruko the better.

Kogane's insane battle grins & rage are great.
Sorta full flashback/recap, at least settles the matter. She won't kill him anymore & got a new goal to save Reoko.
Ya sis hasnt changed, the same family hating brat now stuck to Guy. Now sure how Kaoruko-Entei-Reoko will play out.

If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have).

Yeah, I do wish we'd been exposed to a bit more interaction between Kogane and her father (long prior to his death). It'd be all the more impactful on the viewer if we truly understood their bond and such.
