| I wasn't expecting Hanakaze to kill the escorted VIP. Is she a traitor? But maybe that murder was the mission's real objective, purposefully hidden to Sawa. |
AsterDogma said: OP was dope, the Kimetsu vibes don't go away You said Kimetsu vibes, yet this is just another anime set in japan during the most famous period of its history. Guess all anime with japan vibes is a Kimetsu reference now, even though Kimetsu is from a different period or Shogunate. -------------------------------------------------------------- I do wonder where is this going. I haven´t seen that many anime in recent years that actually end with the revenge plot on actual revenge (last one I remember was 91 days, and who knows when was that aired) but I like the setting. Also, Sawa is literally Ryougi Shiki. |

| Why would Elena just kill the women at the end? If she wanted her dead, why wouldn't she just let the other guys do it, instead of trying to protect her. I could understand if the others didn't achieve that goal and she was left with no choice (whatever her motive is). But now she's just forced herself into creating trouble with Sawa. Odd. |

| I agree that the pacing is all over the place. Sort of symptomatic of having a series that needs to create an emotional ground while remaining obscure to the viewer; I can forgive that though, because it has more or let set an amount of things to look forward. Interesting aesthetics and setting, so far a by-the-numbers revenge plot with a few mysterious hooks and fine, if elusive on purpose, characterization. It can get anywhere but I want to go on. I hope it gets even better once the grounds are fully set. |

| I still can't believe how low the score is... this is incredible!! |
| Direction this episode was plain bad. I can't believe the director is the same man who made beautiful Mardock Scramble and K. What a shame. Art and animation also has a lot of inconsistencies. And it's only ep 2. As for ep itself, I'd say it could be better. We didn't get anything interesting or fresh/original, but maybe plot will get better later. It's too early to judge. |
| Filthy American scum. Always ruining the world for the rest of us. We'd be better off if they would just all go and die. |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| Dealing with vengeance and revenge is super rough on all fronts. Wow, a real good episode. |
| Treasurer deathflags were all over her. :D |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| When I heard her talk about her vengeance, Redo of a Healer came to mind. I think that’s a sign. |
under”Mebius” is my salvation  |
| Elena speaking English all of a sudden took me off guard XD So, the power that Sawa has is actually a power only the people of her clan has. The backstory of Asahi was so unexpected. Sawa had to kill her parents for some orders. I can't sympathize with Asahi since her parents were shit anyway. So, Sawa sees herself in Asahi and also gave her the permission to take revenge. When Asahi was going to stab Sawa in her sleep, the way she started crying at the end, I feel like she has grown attached to Sawa and wouldn't be able to kill her. It would make more sense if deep inside Asahi was actually relieved that Sawa killed her parents since incidentally she happened to save her from being raped. Jin, Tsukishiro and Elena are kinda sus. It wouldn't be surprising if Jin turned out to be Janome himself or at least working for him. |
| This show sure looks nice, but it just feels so dull. |
| Damn so Yuki killed Asahi's parents eh, they weren't good people but still that's quite messed up. They were selling their daughter's body who was like 6/7 year old which is also messed up. Welp the treasurer had to die, no way they were gonna keep a time bomb like her alive. |
 |
| It's cliched and kinda tacky but still deserves a bit better than a 6.5 here. |
| That end of episode was so... cruel, RIP her and her son |
 |
| (English) The second episode was more explanatory and better contextualized who Sawa/Yukimura is. She is a protector of the Japanese government, who had her clan killed in the past as a child. After specializing as a fighter, she adopted Asahi, a daughter of a couple Yukimura killed. This couple had ties to Janome. Janome is responsible for using the blood of the Yukimura clan, for uses in humans, where the scientist seeks immortality in some way. It's a sadder episode than the first. Even a treasurer was killed as she knew too much confidential information. Jin, on Yoshinobu's orders, ordered his death. Betrayal is everywhere, but is revenge too? Asahi will have to position himself. (Portuguese/Português) O segundo episódio foi mais explicativo e contextualizou melhor quem é Sawa/Yukimura. Ela é uma protetora do governo Japonês, que teve o seu clã morto no passado, quando era criança. Depois de se especializar como uma lutadora, ela adotou Asahi, uma filha de um casal na qual Yukimura matou. Esse casal tinha ligações com Janome. Janome é o responsável pelo uso do sangue do clã Yukimura, para usos em humanos, onde o cientista busca a imortalidade de alguma forma. É um episódio mais triste que o primeiro. Até mesmo uma tesoureira foi morta, pois sabia muitas informações confidenciais. Jin, por ordens de Yoshinobu, ordenou sua morte. A traição está em todo lugar, mas será que a vingança também? Asahi terá que se posicionar. |
| bro what? I am so confused |

| Well that was a totally pointless mission if the Treasurer was gonna die anyway. Weird relation between Sawa and Asahi as Sawa killed her parents, which they deserved seeing from the flashback how they mistreated Asahi quite badly by using her as prositute |

| I really hate this blondie bitch |
