| Somehow things even got darker. The doctor has lost his humanity and is carving up 'criminals' left and right. I think he's still making progress having learned about different blood types but that remains to be seen. The big guy from the Itto-ryu has now been captured so I expect a big confrontation next episode and perhaps even the end of this brutal arc. |
| Episode title: Intestines. And things still got even darker than expected. I just want this arc to end at this point but I fear next episode will be completly dedicated to a succesful transplant and only some minor prison break preparations. |

| This episode was an art form. Loved it. Also love it how 10/10 shows are underrated and have a score of 7.20. Enjoying every moment of each episode. |

Enjoying every moment of each episode. because they cut details, it's like watching a movie and seeing character at gas station and the next thing you blink it's in random fight, that's why this wont go past 7 I bet it will barely stay 7, if they would stop cutting the content from each episode then it would be good. |

| Yea, I've seen plenty of good anime that have undeserving scores, this sure isn't one of them. Again, I actually (surprisingly) really liked the live action, but this adaption just doesn't seem to do anything particularly well. It's mediocre at best so far, and will likely end up just plain bad. This episode in particular just drones on, being a poor samurai imitation of stuff like Monogatari. |
 |
| Freaking awesome. Love how the animators used different animation styles to depict the madness Burando was spiraling into. And the soundtrack is fantastic. All creepy and weird. I also love how there's so much to this story. You have Rin's grief, thirst for revenge, and now compassion for the murderers responsible her grief. The Itto Ryu are crumbling and have been humanized somewhat. And then you have all the twisted horror stuff in the dungeon. And Shira's probably going to turn up and do god knows what. I'm really loving this show. |
| Burando has completely lost his sh!t!!! 5/5. Doa is damn badass killer machine small but terrible! Too bad Isaku has been taken...i wonder is he's also fallen? |
 |
| Incredible as always. The direction for this show really is something else, how they build tension and unease, how they illustrate the fights and conflicts, power, the atmosphere in the background shots... What they're achieving with the work here despite their limitations... I was sorta doubtful about it at the start but I'm getting more and more confident that this is my AOTY for 2019. It's stunning. |

| Yeah, the direction was astounding on this. Oh, and please don't be bothered by the low average, this site never had taste. |
| they rearranged 2 volumes in this episode,skipped entire chapters as always. |
| RIP Dewanosuke, he deserved better ;_; I liked how they represented Burando's descent into madness. |
 |
| "On the Perfection of Anatomy" arc, continuing from last episode, Ayame Burando's experiment of the Immortal Manji. With Dewanosuke being taken care of from Manji's immortality, it seems that while Manji doesn't give a flying heck about his own wellbeing, it's sure that his immortality has to be stopped somewhere within, which would count them as failed experiments for Lord Habaki. And too bad it's a failure. No matter the many dissections on Manji, Burando's experiments are one failed experiment after another. It's clear that Burando has gone though almost every circumstance in his life and calling as a doctor. The symbolism in this episode, the crushing of souls through art about Burando's fanatic but twisted lunatic life is just very well done with the eerie emotions, a style only unique to this. Meanwhile, Rin, Doa and Isaku are on their way, and it's obvious that people are still on the search for them. But don't mistake their appearance as merely people, but robotics? They aren't mere humans, that's for sure. But with Isaku gone and captured, the remnants of the Itto-Ryu are left to fend for themselves while being on the run. Cruel, violent and ultimate gore episode but good for once. |

| Y'all right, the score of this anime is wrong, it should be lower than 7 tbf. For the last couple of episodes I've been feeling lost, each transition to another episode is just as confusing as to what's going on. This is getting very hard to follow. I don't even feel invested on any of these new characters, they just feel way too empty and have a strong lack of depth, that even if they get depth I won't really care for them. nanashi796 said: they rearranged 2 volumes in this episode,skipped entire chapters as always. Damn, even if I'm not familiar with the source, I can tell how poorly adapted this is. |

| I'm surprised they're spending this much time on this arc. When the anime was announced and they said director Hamasaki and mangaka Samura had talked about which parts of the story could be more easily skipped so the anime could try to tell the whole thing in 24 episodes, I was convinced they would blaze through this arc in particular, since as is already obvious it's a bit removed from the main plot of Rin's quest for revenge on Kagehisa. But as it turns out, they're actually taking their time with it (relatively speaking anyway). Maybe Hamasaki liked the arc's potential for thriller-like creepiness. He's certainly doing a good job at bringing it to life. Though personally this is still my least favorite part of the story. But it certainly has its moments, like the scene with Burando painting the walls of his room with soy sauce, which was pretty haunting. And it's great to hear Kusao Takeshi (a seiyuu rarely heard these days) playing such an expressive role. p0rkcandy said: What does Isaku being Christian have to do with anything? This was a really bad time to be a Christian in Japan. The Shogunate persecuted, tortured and killed them. |
| Sweet lord this is getting crazier and more savage. Quick, I need a manga reader to spoil me big time. Please tell me that our man Manji cuts Lord Habaki to ribbons before the end. |

| Damn Burame really went mad there, well that's what happens when you ignore what the immortal man Manji is telling you |
 |
| I felt bad for the doctor Burando, juggling between his humanity and profession. Dewanosuke attachment made him reflect on his life and spiral into madness. Here I thought this anime was going to be all only sword on sword fight, but damn, this episode was a good change of pace. Isaku might be held where Manji is, so Rin and Doa being on their way to rescue both of them at the same time. |
