So fanservice girl tries to prove herself as a Fire Soldier... and wins by letting a guy grope her and see her ass.... sigh

At least Maki was badass and it was funny to watch Iris bludgeoning the guy

holy hell maki ended all of those guys with style jfc. The SFX of the 400-pound-giant-steel-flying-death-polls hitting a human in the face at intense speed made my stomach curl a bit.

bravo for tamaki she kinda took down the Evangelist and sister aswell for both demolishing his brains and humanity. Someone also explain how one second iris can be beating a man to the floor with a pipe then the next completely turn into a cutie and melt my heart?

Maki is a skilled fighter and magician.

Totally got the hots for her.

I love a woman that can kick my ass.



Tamaki's battle with Assassin started off decent until it just dropped the ball.

You can never escape Tamaki's fan-service moments EVEN in battle.
What an underwhelming fight.

The eighth company found the hiding place of the evangelists thanks to the work of Licht, but this place is in the Nether, the old underground route of the Tokyo train and is considered as the place that connects to hell according to the religion of the holy sun.

The entrance to the Nether was very funny, almost all the members of the squad were scared, even Captain Obi, which surprised me and made me laugh a lot.
The girls also had their moment, Iris is the calmest of the three, while Maki and Tamaki hide scared behind Iris.

The evangelists began their plan smoothly and the creative Yona uses his pyrokinesis with other followers of the cult to separate the group and create chaos and confusion among the members of the eighth company, which ends with the whole group separated and this is where one of the funniest fights start.

Poor Iris is so dense, how was it possible that she could not identify the real Tamaki, even the imposter had a man's voice, fortunately her lucky pervert is activated leaving her completely naked and Iris clarifies her confusion with these two Tamakis, but they are intercepted by Assault, a very powerful member of the evangelists.

Poor Maki, she ended up alone and scared in the depths of the Nether and the situation worsens when a group of evangelists arrives to face her, but this only manages to calm Maki and so she goes into combat mode, where she ends up giving them a hard beating to each of the evangelists, this included the leader of the group that received double beating for insulting the fragile and delicate Maki.

Tamaki also spent difficult moments against Assault, this guy had a very great pyrokinesis technique that created fire bullets, but Tamaki manages to dodge some of his attacks, but is her lucky pervert who ends up giving her the victory, added to the brutal beating that Iris and Tamaki gave to the virgin evangelist, Assault went to heaven and hell in a matter of seconds, Latom.
Iris's smile is so therapeutic, protect that saving smile.

I really liked this episode, it gave the girls a chance to stand out in combat, even Iris who normally has a more passive role, but Maki does know how to fight, it was something that I loved and gave her more points as Best girl.
I was intrigued with the dream that Shinra had, who will be that girl who looks like Iris, I do not think she is the real one, since she does not have the same gentle and welcoming presence that Iris has, maybe she is another owner of the Adola Link or something else .

Daaaaaamn. Tamaki and Iris beat that guy so hard that his brains spilled out. It was so graphic that it had to be censored. Guess we have to wait for the Blu-rays to see it uncensored.

That part with Assassin of the Abyss and Tamaki was so retarded. I am done, I have reached my limit.



This anime is 1/10 for me now. This episode made me do that.

It looks a lot similar to Soul Eater. Tbh I would've thought something like that would happen lool

If they discovered a threat like that knights being in a specific place, why didn’t they organized an entire assault along 1st, 5th and 7th company that technically are now their allies, I mean, I know the knights are trash except by Sho, but he is that dangerous that an entire 8th company vs him could be a fair fight, I don’t even know what is the plan after finding him or if Obi expected traps from entering there. A little more context about the Nether could’ve worked better, they are afraid of it, but I don’t even know why, it just looks like subways’ ruins. Maki’s fight was awesome, all the choreography was excellent, how everyone got beaten, I could even hear their bones crushing, how brutal Maki is, she beat the shit out of that guy. Tamaki, on the other hand, poor fight, Assault was presented as an op character, what a shame, he even got defeated by Tamaki’s fan service ability.

Maki's fight was the best part of the episode and also one of the best fights of the series, she was so badass! And then we have Tamaki. Like, what the actual fck!? I thought she'd finally have a serious moment and show some usefulness and they turn even that into pointless fanservice which enables her to win the fight and make it into a bad joke. Too bad she'll always remain a useless fanservice character. At least Iris looked cool while bringing the rod down on the enemy from behind.

Maki showcases why once again she is the true best girl of this series. And it's rather funny too because out of all the female characters we've been exposed to so far (Princess Hibana, the Sister, Tamaki, not including any female villains here), she's the one with the least fanservicey moments. I mean we had the close up cleavage shot in episode 1 and maybe like...two shower scenes? And she's clearly the most badass and capable.

I'm not opposed to the fanservice in this anime, I mean you get used to it especially when you're watching shounen genre, but it seems like a lot of people's gripes with the female characters in this show is their capability and the amount of fanservice they get. Well...Maki shows why you don't need to give a damn honestly. But that's just my side take.

Tamaki being serious was unexpected but that Lucky Lecher Lure ultimately derails her. I think she's meant to sort of be like a foil character in this series, much like how Black Starr was the foil in Soul Eater. I still don't really care for her because her character just annoys me, but she and the Sister in this ep were both funny. Also, her only saving grace is being voiced by Aoi Yuuki.


I have to agree that Maki really showed her talents in this episode and on her lonesome too. Tamaki - I appreciated the tenacity, but sorry, if she were fighting another chick, she'd be assed out. That Lecher move would not have saved her, unless...???

Love martial women showing their mettle in any anime; I think this one was nicely done.

you were fighting a chick, yo opa

Nether. What we got there? A joking matter. The fuck with Assault got a nice treatment like that. The justice action for Tamaki and Iris to proved they were not an useless side character at all. Nice attempt. But, the heck? Why Tamaki always got bad impression like that? Latom, then! Lmao. Maki being Maki was okay, as a gorilla girl. Understood. Yeah, finally Mera and Pusu had a useful action by using that flying mace machine. Good personification.

Okay. Only that shit to be mentioned. Lets see another trippy battle against an amusing cult member. A hilarious episode, to be my deep honest.

The first half of the episode was really good with the highlight being Maki's fight. The punches felt so good it made me actually cringe.

But then Fanservice girl came along and ruined the rest of the episode by completely ruining the mood. I hope the evangelist is pulling a reverse card on them and makes things less comfy for the 8th.

Ok so let me get this straight, the nether is what used to be the Tokyo subway? Ok and it's supposed to be taboo and entrance is banned by their government and yet no one is guarding it? And there's a button, from the outside that opens the doors and there's electricity? That doesn't even make any sense. And why did the company 8 go alone? And knowing full well too that they're trying to kidnap Shinra. They should have at least brought the captains of company 5 and 7. There's something very suspicious and sinister going on with their government if they sent only 1 company, and smallest and newest company at that, to raid the supposedly hq of this very powerful and very evil cult. I bet that their emperor, that old fucker is the Evangelist himself. And there we go again with the out-of-place and forced comedy like these people are trying to kill each other but somehow Tamaki loses all her clothes? Ok

Ok, this time there were some genuinely funny scenes. Látom.

All I'm saying here is the author missed a chance to properly develop Tamaki and instead used her as a fanservice tool again.
The author did give her as much development as possible here, she faced a strong enemy with all she had and the end result has no real effect on that. Powering up to win or even losing would not really develop her any further. If you find the resolution silly or demeaning that's a completely different matter.

Rip these guys who mercilessly got annihilated by Maki and her Hammers lol Maki does not dissapoint with her fighting.

Apparently Tamaki ̵i̵n̵ ̵h̵e̵r̵ ̵o̵w̵n̵ ̵w̵a̵y̵ beat one of the strong guys together with Iris, Good Job! I didn't expect to see Firefighter Brutality and moreover Iris, the Nun to be this merciless lmao

Tamaki's lucky lechery definitely worked to her advantage this time. It made that Assault guy look like a push-over. lol

Oh man, finally, Maki in action. The way she destroyed those white clads was badass!

Shinra was such a cute kid!!!! And Iris in his dream???? Wtf was that. Was that really her.

Obi being creeped out by the “Netherworld” trolllloooool Company 8 is actually just a whole ass bunch of dorks♡ L O L @ Vulcan & his sloth goggles!!!!

Maki as amazing as always. Iris & Tamaki were so cute together & even cuter beating Assault into a pulp lolollll. DAT CENSOR. And glad there was some character development from Tamaki, tho sadly she never fails to be reduced to fanservice. I like her tho, and I’ve actually never minded the fanservice. Look at her just charge at that Crimson Bullet.

Assault kinda hot tho.







but i’ll probably remember over and over again

I like that they got separated, so everyone has their own time to shine. Maki's fight was great, really utilized her gorilla cybo... I mean womanly strength. Tamaki's fight on the other hand... I don't like how she looks so weak all the time and only won this fight because of her lucky lecher ability tbh.

Uhh the Nether? They better have some fire resistance potions ready.

Maki's pair of Tekkyo is as badass as I hoped it would be, in fact, it's straight-up brutal, it's essentially a solid metal missile, as long as you're a human, that thing could easily knock you out and even potentially crush your bones, killing you like the bugs you are. What a fitting weapon for someone like Maki. She's a beast with fists of steel, no way some Evangelist chump that underestimates her could ever hope to win against others, even if she's all by herself.

On Tamaki's side, I thought this 'Assaut' guy would be a tough opponent, well he's capable but damn did he not expect those fan service power to be laid down upon his poor soul. Man's got consecutively beating by both Tamaki and Iris to a bloody pulp, guy even got his brains spilling out of his skull. I guess we now know that Iris isn't above beating the shit out of evildoers until they're a bloody mess.

I wished we get to see more of Tamaki's ability though, I'm still not completely sure the advantage of using her cat-like fire powers and also why she fights with her bare body revealed. Assault's metal dildo bullets really gave her some damage by hitting her unprotected guts.

Great episode!

Maki did a great job! Those 2 "hammers" really do fit her combat style well xD
Iris and Tamaki are now my favorite duo ahaha Their fight part was unexpectedly funny, and that ending haha
Iris used her ultimate hahaha

This..




Poor guy xD

So... we're just going to carry on as if two fire force members didn't JUST bludgeon a man to death or at least give him SEVERE brain trauma!?

After that boring af last episode, this was some decent fun, the later part to be precise. Maki didn't hold anything back, and yeah why would she, given her She-Hulk status. Again though Tamaki, even villains aren't safe from her lucky lecher ability.
