Hahaha, so:
we got Japanese nationalists
lots of crazy, degenerate people.
Fuji erupts.
Random shenanigans.

And now we don't know if everyone's dead, except for the siblings.

The show is so comically bad I don’t even know if I want to continue.

Literally hate watching it now.

Damn disaster wherever they go. Those fucking japanese degenerates died and also sunk this boat along with them. Now we don't even know if they are all okay. Also that last scene was sorta creepy.

The fuck Ayumu? She drank there when decided to got off the ship but only to get separated again in the next sequences. I don't get it at all with this messy episode. Atleast Ayumu and her shitty engrish brother saved, once again, because of the huge barrier they had. Yeah, Japan sunk and left some roof top of some huge building. How long till they finally lost the hope and death? Interesting goal i had after watching this hectic show

lol I do like how it includes Japanese nationalists, reminds me when you actually see the proper nationalists roam around Tokyo every now and again.

Episode was a bit meh though, it really is decreasing in value, and its getting more grim and grim. Really wondering how this is going to end.

You would think it would be better to stay together and not go seperated ways.
Also the ship didn't look that full (don't know about max capacity though) couldn't they have fitted more people on it?. Not sure what to think of the Japanses idiots but pretty funny to see their ship sinking.

The quality of animation dropped to a new low in this episode. Gone are the stylish Yuasa designs...

was mad that ayumu decided not to stay on the boat, but she could have been lucky leaving after this episode since japan sunk. nice addition of the nationalists and just people devolving due to crisis. what a visceral feeling

I see what they were trying to go for here; kinda like an American blockbuster, similar in vain to '2012' but they jump around waaaay too much. If this were a movie or even if they just skipped the whole cult subplot altogether it would make some cohesive sense but other than that it's legit a train wreck. Praying the last 3 episodes can try to pull this muddled mess out of the sunken depths were this show came

I wanted to smack Go when he said "Game over" in English. Dude, you are all about to die. Shut the fuck up!

The nationalists was a nice touch. I have a feeling if gramps were alive he wouldn't join them though. He senses through bullshit. I've met a few nationalists before. However, if Japanese people took a a DNA test, they'll find not very many of them are one hundred percent pure Japanese. Everyone is mixed some way or another.

However, why did their ship explode? What it because of that King Kong sized sound system? LOL

This is more of what we needed this show to be, not that stupid cult arc.

However it would be cool if there was more military, so that people wouldn't instantly turn on each other. So cliche.

The very first shot of the mom made me laugh. Her design is so awful.

Goodbye, mom. Let me grope your butt one last time before another commemorative photo, as one normally does. If my daughter got off that boat, I would smack the crap out of her. But no, Onodera might be wrong, guys! I know My. Fuji's smoking more and more by the minute, but it hasn't erupted yet! That means the guy who's never wrong could be wrong this time.

Drive! Misses the opening and crashes immediately. Pretty large piece of shrapnel there.

Apparently his phone is not only a planetary level but also an X-ray. That's pretty useful. Not sure how it went through his ribs and didn't puncture anything. I mean it literally skewered his chest, but whatever. Oh hey, it's another vanishing tsunami. At this point, I feel confident I could outwalk one in real life. I'm sure I wouldn't have any problems.

Let's take this opportunity to try to get on the giant raft Onodera hates. They're loudly screaming for an ethnostate, but I'm sure my mixed family can get on. How did the mom even get on the raft before the son? But never fear because a better
backup boat has magically appeared. Better because it's an ACTUAL boat, which means some level of shelter and seaworthiness. Woops, I guess it's junk too.

And now no one gets the big life raft because one jerk can't wait 5 seconds. Hey, we're on top of a skyscraper! That thing we said would happen for the entire length of the show aside from the last 10 minutes happened, guys! Woahhhhhh!

Why didn't they just shoot the line-runners? How you gonna get a nation of 100s of millions of people to agree to a 3000 boat lottery in the first place? What happened to the fourth boat? Did the fourth port implode like this show's budget? Maybe these people could explain it to me in English.

this show is going so downhill idek whats happening anymore. thought the dude with the 'better ship' was cool though, just wish he actually had a better ship. for some reason i don't want to drop it; im just holding hope for the next episodes to redeem it. can't really say i dislike it though, bc it still interests me.

Man this show is so wild it's actually kinda funny. Shit is just so crazy lmao. Japanese nationalist float explodes immediately after refusing our squad. So classic.

Also can we talk about how Ayumu ran away from the ship due to a random heart problem her mother had which we as the audience knew absolutely nothing about. For a second I was kinda interested thinking wow are they actually gonna have her escape and maybe tell the remaining story from different perspectives, but nah.

Well to be fair, Japans current population is about 126 million and earlier they said 100m ppl have died... but ya I mean the show is still a wild mess.

Wow this is one of the few times I can't help but comment on how absurdly bad something is. Just to list a few things:
-Main chick gets safed for plot and finds out about her mothers surgery in the most illogical way ever. ''Ooh surgery is a word I know ... maybe that means my mom has a heart disease.'''.
-Nationlist don't notice Kaito is a foreigner, I mean how even!!
-Random Japanese fisher has gun but doesn't do anything for the plot.
-Japan appears to have sunk in a few fucking minutes.

Mix that with the animation that has gotten so bad you can't even call it janky anymore (and it isn't the style either, devilman crybaby had great animation), a plot that goes nowhere, the most unrealistic and unrelatable characters ever and an annoying EPIC gamer English wannabe brat and the show becomes pretty much unbearable.

Literally the only thing that isn't afwul is the soundtrack, I think the music is pretty good overall. I am only finishing this show because it is just 10 episodes and I had dropping shit. (also I just wanna watch the trash taste podcast where they talk about it ;) )

Well, talk about divine punishment. Guess Japanese nationalists is something Yuasa despises with all his might?

As usual, another atrocious episode but hey, Kaito's outburst towards the nationalists while being awfully drawn was fucking hilarious.
