Damn, tough choices have to be made this episode. The action was a bit over the place but seeing the two sides clash is thrilling.

I'm glad they're still keeping Lucy somewhat relevant this arc. Kyouka is struggling to fight against Akutagawa, which I don't find that surprising. Kaiji is also back with his explosive attitude. What an episode.

So HiroC's character knew about what the boss said and did, but Ishida-san's character is smart, too.

Most of them decided to continue to fight (meaning disobeys the boss). Hosoya-san's character is hurt badly with the bomb girl last ep.

So... there's still a way, the case not done investigating. Hosoya-san's character somehow got himself together and helped main guy w. that case.

HiroC's character releasing his power?! Both of them into the book.

The girl vs. OnoKen's character, but draw.

That weird bomb guy brought many lemon bombs...

Both bosses went missing. Mamo's character woke up. While everyone's looking for them, they are meeting up to fight one vs. one.

I will never get over how Mori's ability is called Vita Sexualis and is basically a Stand with the shape of a little girl. I just cannot.

Episode was cool, Ranpo was especially badass, trolling Chuuya with Poe's ability (is always nice to see him too), and they made Kajii look cooler than in the manga. Kunikida's voice acting at the beginning of the episode was also great.
Too bad they did my boy Katai dirty. He deserved better ;_;

What an action packed episode. So the Agecny and Port Mafia decided to duke it out, and the Port Mafia won. No surprise there.

Ranpo outsmarted Chuuya and now they are stuck in Poe's world. Poor Chuuya, always lets his temper get the better of him. That's how he also lost to Dazai and that's why he can never be the leader of the Port Mafia. He is dictated by his emotions rather than cold logic like Mori.

Kyouka went up against Akutagawa and lost. But it's nice to see him a bit more mellowed-out now. I guess that time he spent fighting against and alongside Atsushi has definitely helped. And it seems that all that time he was talking about giving Kyouka a purpose meant that he did care, since he saw himself in her, an empty husk who wanted to die, until he found a purpose in life.

Katai has been eliminated, which is no surprise either, since the previous episode pretty much established that Fyodor knows everyone who is connected to the Agency, be it friend or foe, like Katsura, Aya and now Katai.

Dazai is finally awake, but still in bed. And Mori and Fukuzawa, two old friends will fight for the sake of their organizations and subordinates.

Overall, pretty nice episode.

So much stuffs were happening, Ranpo pulling a fast one on Chuuya was the most memorable part, the ep felt like 10mints, time fcking flew, the story really knows how to pull you in.
Again I do not see how this can be concluded in 2 more eps, will this end in a cliffhanger for a season 4?
PS. Dazai's finally awake.

Loved this episode.

Ranpo-Poe duo against Chuuya was amazing! The glimpse to Akutagawa's past was pretty nice too.

The head on battle between bosses seems like the most logical thing in this situation but I have a feeling there's still an ace up someone's sleeve who'd turn everything around.

My biggest problem with this episode was the direction felt... off. The scenes just kept cutting back and forth, from Rampo to the frontal attack squad to the President to Atsushi. It didn't feel very cohesive. Besides that, this was a thrilling episode. Rampo's strategy to die with Chuuya was brilliant, although it resulted in him disappearing when the Detective Agency would need him most. I didn't expect Katai to get "erased." Fyodor really does think of everything. The fight between Kyouka and Akutagawa was well animated and choreographed, making it a treat to watch. It ended in a mutual draw, which was a good ending. Why hasn't Akiko gone to heal Dazai yet? Where is the cat going? I don't actually know who will come out of this 1v1 alive. This will be fascinating to watch.

I'm honestly surprised that Elise is just Mori's ability, as she's seemed like her own character for all this time (albeit a bizarre one even by this show's standards). Other than that, this episode was good but not at all cohesive, with the constant flicking back and forth between the various groups and various conflicts; I would have personally preferred the show to go through each of these fights in full before switching focus, but I can understand choosing the approach they did.

Damn, Rampo did a good move on Chuuya!

Was nice to see detective agency fighting this episode!

So the bosses vanished and decided to finish it with a duel between them, obvious it is the most logical choice, they have a lot to protect!

Looking forward next episode!

Without spoling, Dazai is obviously planning something respecting the situation, but if you want a proper Dazai vs Fyodor, you may have to wait for a future season, or read the manga. And I'm not going to tell you more, because otherwise I may have to spoil.

Could that have ended at a more intense moment?! I wanna know more about Mori & Fukuzawa's past together... maybe one season, the 3 ep prequel will be about them?

I really hope that Katai isn't dead because he seemed like he had more to give as a character and honestly, i think he'd be an awesome addition to the regular cast.

That moment between Akutagawa & Kyouka was awesome too; maybe Akutagawa actually cares about her, in a similar way that Dazai cared about him?

Hmm so they have 17 hours until the virus kills huh. Still the agency really is backed into a corner here. The death of that girl though really had quite the impact on Kunikida. Still its good to see that he didn't let fear take him. As plans go while Rampo's one was a basic one it sure proved to be surprising effective. Despite being on opposing sides the two bosses really do think alike in that both are trying hard to protect their men. Though deciding to fight a dual to settle things sure was unexpected. Quite curious as how this dual would go though.

"Vita Sexualis" Mmmm! Sounds like an enticing ability! Mori-san you naughty old dog! Can't wait to see what it does!

Can't believe we already left with two episodes, time flies when you're watching Bungo.

CHUUYA I LOVE YOU BUT YOU ARE A IMPULSIVE DUMBASS

That was hilarious, though. Being an Agency member since it was founded, Ranpo might know a lot about Chuuya for just a few clues Dazai gave him. And again, Taniyama´s "aaaaAAAAAHHHH!!" strikes back. I just love him so much.

Poe´s reaction! He´s totally drawn to Ranpo and has no problem saying it out loud lol

Akutagawa recognizing Kyouka´s growth was touching. And also one of the cutest things he did, somehow. And Kaji also doesn´t give a f*** about his boss´ building... And poor Kunikida... Even working as a detective all those years... To think some characters had to see that in a daily basis, like Akutagawa and Chuuya.

It´s interesting to see how many people are surprised about Elise being Vita Sexualis. She is just around, even if there is not need for battle, because Mori really loves her... And has weird tendencies... You know. Good thing she isn´t a real nine year old.

Next episode, there will be THAT controversy. Hooo, boy. People will discuss a bunch about it.

Chuuya falling into Ranpo's trap was great... And then the raccoon just taking the book lmao.

Finally a bit of screen time for Naomi, I don't remember the other girl very well
though. What is sure based on the opening is that the cat is into something.

Like every time she appears: Yay, more Lucy!

And wait, what?! Elise was Mori's ability? Huh, that really surprised me, I thought she was just a gifted girl, although her presence always seemed a bit bizarre to me.

Next week hype!

Great episode.

Loved the part where Ranpo intimidated Chuuya.

Katai's dead? I don't see how he could've survived that without some ability interference. My biggest question with all that is that happened to his body?

The situation continues to get more violent, the detective agency is divided into two factions, a group will attack the Port Mafia to kill Mori and Atsushi with Kunikida will continue looking for the creator of the virus, but it seems that Fyodor is still the one with the advantage over all.

Ranpo managed to get rid of Chuuya who was one of the lethal elements of the Port Mafia, Poe was a great help, although it was used by Ranpo.

Akutagawa vs Kyouka was what I liked the most about the episode, Kyouka still has a touch as a stealth assassin, but Akutagawa still has the advantage over little Kyouka.
Akutagawa recognizes that Kyouka has changed positively since that time when they met, when she recently joined the Port Mafia and her eyes were empty and she despised her life and the existence of Yasha Shirayuki.

Motojirou is a lunatic for the lemon-explotions, that bombing he did was epic and he cut the route of advance to Yozano and the boys, this ends up leaving them with the only option to retire.

What a pity it was to learn that Katai was ambushed by Fyodor, personally I do not think Katai is dead, but one can not be sure, especially if Fyodor is involved.

Mori and Fukuzawa leave their respective hiding places and decide to end this conflict in a duel, but what an overwhelming cliffhanger and what surprised me most was to see that Elise was part of Mori's ability.
I hope that the next episode gives us a better explanation of how this battle will be solved, will end with the death of one of the bosses in the duel? or Atsushi with Kunikida will find the creator of the virus? Or maybe Dazai is the one who can find Fukuzawa and Mori and manages to save them? Everything is possible, but we'll have to wait to find out.

I really enjoyed this one. Rampo challenging Chuya was very good showing of the fact that by outsmarting he can win fights. Also kyoka vs akutagawa was nice especially the little flashback of akutagawa's past. The charracter with lemon bombs( I forgot his name) poured some fun into the action. I'm also looking forward to the boss 1v1.

I know a lot of people didn't seem to like the jumping between fights but I enjoyed it. It seemed obvious that the each fight was going to end in a draw so there wasn't much point to have a huge focus on each fight. I am interested to see Ranpo and Chuuya trying to solve the mystery.

We already know what it does though. All Men Are Equal allows people in the detective agency to have better control of their abilities. It was explained in the 1st season.
