| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Juri and Shouko really feel like water and oil in this show. The two just can't seem to co-exist. Junji's physical change is rather noticable tbh. Wonder how much his body can take it. Honestly, seeing him attack Shouko feels like a predator chasing down his prey. What a monster. Jiisan's a such a tough dude for his age. |
 |
| So it ends with another cliffhanger. Well so far things are progressing nicely and it looks like things might heat up even further so i am really looking forward to next week. |
| Hoping there's still more world building. I find the sci-fi aspects of this show to be really interesting. I could care less about a final battle against a monster. Curious to see how Juri's dad and nephew are used in the end and whether or not we'll see another power or two. |
| So Sagawa has transformed into some kind of human/herald hybrid monster. He kinda looks like Younger Toguro from YYH when activating his full demon power. Well the rest of the goons are now either dead or in stasis so only our main cast remains. I'm glad to see Tsubasa has been safely hidden, but now Gramps is in danger. If he's just ejected from the spell that would be alright I guess. Losing his teleportation would be huge mind you, but at least he'd be alive. The pain he seems to be in concerns me though. Meanwhile I keep wondering why the obnoxious dad is still here but seems like he might be killed off next week. Hopefully Makoto won't get taken hostage again as a result. Majima's little floating trick was kinda cool, and Juri is still Juri. Guess that's all for now. |
| That transformation, sagawa joining younger toguro and gotou XD They are moving but really slowly, grandpa about to get evacuated out. |
 |
| Boi, Sagawa was scary af and his ability to make use of protein,tho xD |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| This anime really likes having its episodes end in cliffhangers. Sagawa has gotten a lot stronger and is looking like the Hulk. I'm curious what's going to happen to Jiisan. He's not doing so well. |
 |
| So Sagawa is practically nigh-omnipotent and has essentially taken out the grandfather, so he should totally have won by now, right? Unless Shiomi has something he's hiding from Sagawa somehow, although from what we've heard about him as a character I don't see why. |
| Looking forward to next weeks episode now that we got a cliffhanger. Worried about whats to come since Sagawa's influence and threat to the crew has just increased greatly. The Dad will probably become some sort of catalyst, hostage, or maybe even ruin Juri's plan somehow. That's all. |
| Well it looks like the situation has become even more complicated now that Juri's grandfather has been taken out by Sagawa. It's just one obstacle after another in this show. Also, I couldn't help but get a good chuckle when Juri's dad pretended to pay for the toy before taking his money back. I'd probably do the same in that situation tbh. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| I did not expect this sort of transformation from Sagawa, at this point it's more smart for Shiomi to side with Sagawa cuz who wants to go against this beast lmao |
 |
| It felt like everything was going too well for Juri. I'm glad Sagawa is now a real treat, but let's see how this will conclude. I also liked how they explain how objects move while in Stasis without too much exposition. |
| man i hope nothing too bad happen to jiisan, hes such a nice grandpa. and something tells me that takafumi will fuck up everything |
| Toguro is vilain of the season confirmed |
| EL PSY KONGROO!!! |

| Okay, I could accept Old man's teleport ability and Juri's Statis expulsion (and their "it just works" "explanation"), but now the villain has the power to transform himself into hulk with Herald abilities while being on total control of his own self (Breaking entirely the Herald logic) This is now beyond Inuyashiki level of asspull. Ahh, everything was going quite right until this happened. well at least seeing how Juri will succeed now without Old man's teleport will be interesting (if he dies or gets out of statis by the rock force of course) |

He's not in full control of his own self. |

He's not in full control of his own self. Still that doesn't change the fact that it is an asspull. They gave us all that logic behind how are Heralds created, then suddenly the villain got the chance to become one himself even if he isn't in total control. They completely break everything they explained about heralds just to make an OP Hulk. It seems to me that the author just run out of ideas. |

They had that in mind all the time with the religious sect that Sagawa created and with the old book's story. Not to mention the first Herald that appeared looked like someone from the Edo period, matching Sagawa's logic. Sagawa plans on becoming like him eventually. |
| haven't talked about this show much just been casually enjoying it every week i'm like this is interesting lets see where it goes then some wild happens and it's over lol, have to say i'm enjoying Toguro as a main villain |
 |
| Why does this episode feels like the voice actors are speaking in a enclosed space or tin-canned sound voice? Sagawa went into killing spree the other members of Genuine love society! lol the dad of Juri placed the money but took it! he's definitely one who wants to take advantage of the Stasis for his own good! SO Majima also have special powers just like Juri, just loot at eye as well! she could float in mid air! So they are using the blood of gramps onto the master stone so that teleporter gramps would be out of the Stasis! Damn! Things are getting desperate and situation looking very bad for the Yukawa family as well as Majima. The end card seems familiar, i just don't know or remember any source or references? 5/5. |
 |
| Sagawa, the villain so far, certainly is not a great villain in my opinion, but he is developing into an interesting one. Despite his new powers, he's still the same calm and analysing person he was, and it's him seeking knowledge that gives us some exposition about the world: The stasis world isn't actually time-stopped, the characters are just moving extremely fast... The spectres are the reason heat and friction is maintained as if they were moving at normal speed, etc. If we're given some more development into his past, I think that would be great. Other than that, good standard episode as usual. |

Maybe you need to rewatch the last 2 episodes. No I don't feel the need to watch the last 2 episodes, are you seriously buying all that? Its plenty of bullshit already to make another bullshit move even if it is "explained" |

| Takafumi deserve the power of stone , xD |
| BRAWLERS |
| Sagawa actually becomes a dangerous villain-character now that he's swole and buffed up. Majima got a power, but that's nothing significant to how much power Sagawa has. Damn, say goodbye to grandfather, now the most reliable source for information regarding the world of stasis is on the other side (in the normal world) |
  |
| Stop ending with cliffhanger. Sagawa's transformation feels like an asspull but meh. 2/5 |

| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| So the whole white-eyes thing means they are controlling the spectre. matias067 said: I noticed that too. I think the voice recording has been questionable in quality before, but this episode it was pretty bad.Why does this episode feels like the voice actors are speaking in a enclosed space or tin-canned sound voice? |
  |
| Quite interesting. Didn't pay enough attention to get the reasoning behind the 'transformation' but it's acceptable I guess. |

|
| Sagawa is all powerful now, but he keeps his conscience...I didn't expect Shouko to have a power too... |
 |
| I didn't expect to enjoy this so much. |
 |
| Sagawa is like an amalgamation of The Hulk and Broly! |
 ☩ Discord: the.path.to.pathos ☩ RateYourMusic ☩ last.fm |
| i dont understand how he can transform in Herald and keep the human conscience?! Now all the people are in Statis have powers, except the father and the small yakuza!!! kekeke |
| This show got Parasyte real quick. Big stronk monsters and absolutely ridiculous logic/psychology that they throw together to try and make sense. |
| Damn they actually did it, and with the teleportation gone I really wonder what they'll do next against such a monster! Really impressive development though, looking forwards to see what's next. |
 |
| Sagawa just turned into a Hulk rip-off lol |
 |
| It’s either for the gag or it’s showing that the dad is gonna cause a lot of trouble in the future. He’s gonna take the master stone or sum shiz and do something stupid with it. |
