So Akechi gets taken away while Nakamura is roaming free in her current state. Sigh...

This episode felt like a mind game. Poor Akechi being toyed around. At least Kobayashi and Hanasaki are working together now.
Another cliffhanger again.... I think this show really seems to like them.

This show and it's cliffhangers >.<
Nice to see Hanasaki and Kobayashi working together again, I missed them ^-^
Wth! Hanasaki better be ok >.>
And poor Akechi being toyed around by Twenty Faces
Inoue and the rest will probably be fine
Ahh 2 episodes left! Can't wait for next week!

Good to see Hanasaki and Kobayashi working together again. Akechi is constantly being toyed around by Twenty Faces. That cliffhanger though. This show really likes them.

I know we are 22 episodes in, but this anime "action" scenes are fucking awful, especially when guns are involved. It's like someone made a draft of a scene and no one bothered to check if anything worked (You may also apply this to the whole anime).

Also Kobayashi straight up looked like Kaworu in one screen:

Haha, Hanasaki and Kobayashi were having such a nice moment and then *boom*
I'll be sad if Kobayashi got hurt trying to protect Hanasaki

I was the only one lmao when the airship suddenly appear? I was like "are we getting aliens involve now?" because seriously that made NO SENSE. Is so ridiculous... And yes, the animation was awful as always. Akechi is normally the one getting the weird faces, I guess it was Kobayashi's turn this week. And the scene between Twenty Faces and Akechi with the chains... this anime is painful to watch.

This anime has indeed some flaws with the animation, but it's interesting. Hope Hanasaki and Kobayashi are good, don't want them to die!

Kobayashi and Hanasaki working together is nice I guess.
Akechi gets toyed around by Twenty Faces.

That blast at the end though, wonder if Hanaski survived.

Another failure of making an action scene looks cool.

What is this intense feeling that arouse me after a long time!!!!! what a blast it was!!!!!

[i think there is significant quality drop lately but however there are always a intense feeling from this anime! way to go! way to go!]

Yeah it had some top-notch OST ~ way too thrilled me in a surprise way!

note: every anime has cliffhanger ending on each episode and what make us more thrilled as this is original and while other anime has manga so we can spoiled up reading next chapter~ so watching original anime has extra fun... hmm... yes i realise this now... (dont know why am i writing this lol)

This episode.... 20 faces and his BDSM bondage while Kobayashi gotta hella weird face in one scene. Lol. But to be honest, it was a great episode!! I was like "No fucking way! You can't kill of Kobayashi's lover!!"

But seriously, who else thinks this show should at least be labeled as a Shounen Ai? Is it just me? Am I the only fujoshi watching this show?? Ok...

Twenty Faces realizes that the only way to salvage this show is to kill all the kids. I hope he succeeds.

I have to be honest, I love Twenty Faces. He's a very interesting character, and I've reached the point to just watch this show bc of him lmao he deserves to be in a better anime.

The Twenty Faces from Ranpo Kitan: Game of Laplace beats this wannabe by a landslide. I know it doesn't make sense to compare the same character in 2 completely different shows but IMHO he's become really annoying and unbearable in this show. Like he himself said: "Akechi is now bored with my thrills" YES AND SO AM I!! I FIND YOU REALLY BORING TWENTY THOUSAND FACES!! NOTHING ABOUT YOU IS THRILLING!!

The plot armor for these kids while escaping must be so STRONG that it miraculously jammed/locked all of the guns of those "Special Security Forces" I'm pretty sure at least 2-3 of them have their guns pointed at Hanasaki when he did the roundhouse kick but instead they waited and gave him a chance to finish his kick, pick up a gun, and catch up with the gang to escape. Where I'm from if you do that when your surrounded by cops they either taser or shoot you on the spot.

I have an idea! Just kill off Akechi please and end this show! Wannabe faces will have nothing else to do. Take away his toy! Problem solved!

I believe it was a slower, instrumental version of the first ending, 1HOPE SNIPER.
