| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Cool, we got more storytelling on Mikey and his crew. I like how serious Mikey feels about his Street Hawk bike, even though others seems puzzled that he still kept it. From this episode, it really managed to establish Mikey as a legit badass, for his attitude and actions. |
 |
| So, we got the backstory on Mikey and his friends and how they used to have fun in their early days. Idk why but Mikey on his Street Hawk like that was so hilarious. LMAO. Mikey was such a badass in that past story of them. Man doesn't care about anything if something happens to one of his friends. I get there thinking and why they meant to do that but they fucked up big time. They accidentally killed Mikey's big brother. Poor guys, they just wanted to see Mikey happy. I feel bad for them. Amazing fuckin' writing there. |

| Once upon a time...before the days of the Tokyo Manji Gang, the 6 founding members are just as eccentric as they're today, in a flashback that is happy from the start, that turns miserable as time progresses. Mikey in his young days, is so funny and comical amidst the backdrop of the teenage gangsters just wanting to have some beach time. Yet this is where Baji finds himself in trouble with a rival gang to trash Mikey's precious Street Hawk moped that's needing some gas. Yet, his seriousness comes through when trouble arises, and that is what makes him an invincible badass. Kazutora's time to shine with stealing a Bobber bike with Baji, and that's where all hell broke loose, not realizing that the bike shop is under the ownership of Sano Shinichiro, Mikey's older brother. A one-shot kill with a wrench from Kazutora, press F for respects to this legendary character thtat Kazutora screwed up so badly and lead to his own disillusionment to exterminate Mikey...the day that both Kazutora and Baji were separated forever. What a scary plot twist in this one... |

| Great episode and naturally hyped for the coming episodes. makimaxx said: Peak fiction, Tokrev really out there reminding us why it’s the best new gen every Saturday. Overall great episode, seeing Shinichiro getting killed animated was hard to watch. Kazutora accidentally killed him though and because of the remorse of killing someone he said “I must kill Mikey” he was just traumatized. Feel bad for him, I hope anime onlys won’t judge kazutora so quick. I thought we would see Chifuyu this episode but they only adapted 2 chapters in whole 23 min episode why is the pacing so slow? I’m worried about the valhalla vs toman fight I hope lidenfilms won’t ruin it, because anime isn’t doing the manga justice so far What do you mean the anime isn't doing justice? While yeah it's slow sometimes, it's still better than being rushed to the oblivion, we can roughly guess where the anime will end probably with the pacing they're going (Bloody halloween) and its end. |

| Kazutora should've done background check for the store he was robbing. But guess intelligence wasn't his forte considering he was still a kid. The event shocked him so much he became mentally unstable and thinking of killing Mikey for revenge wtf. |
| Mikey's dopeyness is jokes, but seems like kazutora had quite the colourful past. I'm still laughing my head off at the absurdity of ages, they're what in middle school and they're riding bikes, going beaches, beating up actual gangs at this point they played GTA lol. Mikey pushing menial tasks onto others seems to have been like that since he was younger lol, and the way he fight is so jokes lmao. Baji protecting the dodgy moped for only mikey to come and destroy it and blame the other gang was so stupid xD. The beach scene really reminds you of the stark difference in personalities in the gang at the time, with some competing for sports, others competing for the scenery - you get what I mean- and other's looking for petrol lmao. The road to hell is paved with good intentions, is what I was reminded of when the whole shinichiro event happened, they wanted to surprise mikey, and technically they did by murdering his brother but that's talk for another day. I don't get what goes through these kids' heads, they casually rob a shop and decide that one shotting the owner is the best course of action, and then kazutora had the audactiy to smile about it? And then he blames mikey for what kazutora did without being asked or requested or hinted, when mikey was perfectly fine with things? Damn, kazutora needs a mental health check asap. |

| Mickey with his little bike has made my day jkdjkfj Not the beach scene I was expecting, but I'm not complaining... How I knew the robbery was going to go wrong .-. What a tension, poor Baji. Although I don't know how Kazutora came to that conclusion either, but the trauma sure is tough |

| *insert Michael Jordan, stop it, get some help meme* That's all I can say about Kazutora. That guy had a serious overdose of copium 😂 Also lol @ we're at the beach, bitches. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Damnnn this was rough to watch. Baji in his youth was the total opposite of what we saw a few weeks ago. A really good kid and a great friend. Shame he got dragged into Kazutora’s plan, but that’s why you have to stand up for yourself and not give into peer pressure. Shed a little bit of light on why Kazutora isn’t listed as a founder. Really good episode as usual |
 |
| Kazutora very sus |
hmstr said: So he planned to steal a bike for Mikey, which then he was going to lie to Mikey about it being legit, and then once he smacked Mikey's brother and was going to steal the bike, it's Mikey's fault. I'm not a mathematician but this sh*t isn't adding up. yeah idk what was going on with that bit either. I guess it could be some brain shutdown type of deal but seems pretty random lmao |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| Well, we're getting some scenes of Toman back in the days. Everyone has a motor while Mikey is on a damn scooter lol. The first half of the episode was pretty fun but it ended up with a dark and sad second half. Kazutoro ends up killing Mikey's older brother after trying to get a bike for him. Both get caught. And Kazutoro's personality takes a 180 turn |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| "If Mikey wasn't this cool I'd never have to impress him, so he needs to die". |
| Imagine how boring this world would be without Japan - a comment at youtube |
| I'll be honest, I've been really underwhelmed by this series, but this episode was good enough to give me a small bit of optimism for the first time. Hopefully we'll continue to trend in that direction. |
| *Mourning the disappointment of The Promised Neverland season 2.* |
| yooooooooo wtf was not expecting that at the end of last weeks episode mikeys brother outta nowhere and they (almost?) killed him and how tf did kazutora end up with that conclusion ay? and how does this turn baji into a huge dick |
 |
| Dude baji was drawn in there, he told him not to do that, and that's what happens kazutora killed mikey olders brother what a tragedy. Nice that wee see from the past and thats why kazutora leave the gang. I feel bad for them two. The scene with mikey on his moped was so funny. |

P O S I T I V E V I B E Sシ  |
| Well that got pretty real. The way it portrayed Baji’s and Kazutora’s shock after it happened was realistic, although it doesn’t make sense that Kazutora would break like that and decide he has to kill Mikey because it’s his fault. Maybe there will be some more information next episode that explains it. I guess this means that Baji is attacking Toman because he feels he needs to be punished for killing Mikey’s brother because Mikey accepted him afterwards. |
| rip Mikey's Street Hawk xD and rip his brother |
 |
| So Mikey somehow forgave Baji. To have him in the gang. And now Baji want help the guy who killed the honest working brother? And all this probably without drugs involved. |
 |
| I also thought that this was best episode so far. Very difficult to watch them in the shop and Mikey's brother getting killed. Dreadful really. I am feeling like the show is slowing down a little bit the last few episodes, would like to see the pace picking up a tiny little bit. |
| One would think that if these guys were such good friends with Mikey, they would know his older brother owns a bike shop lol. Baji even recognized Shinichiro so he must have met him at some point. Then again maybe it was a brief encounter that didn't go beyond basic introductions, so it's possible him owning a bike shop never came up in conversation. And like others have mentioned, I'm not really convinced about Kazutora's rationale for having to kill Mikey now. Hopefully that gets cleared up later, but all I can think of is "if Mikey had a better bike, we wouldn't be here trying to steal one only to end up getting caught and killing the store owner....so it's his fault." Lmao Mod Note: Removed response to a deleted post |

| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| So, let me see if I understood They were Mickey's friends They knew Mickey's brother Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut they didn't know that Mickey's brother (or family) had a bike shop. Hmm, okay |
| If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time. Watch more movies, please. Kafka, Fu Xuan, Jingliu, Topaz and Huohuo. |
| Sorry, but I'm confused. Was Kazutora already a psycho before? His motivation to kill Mikey felt so incredibly forced and out of nowhere... |
| "No one hates anime more than the anime community, which is composed of some of the most spoiled, immature, pessimist and ungrateful people on Earth." -Anonymous anime watcher |
| damn this Kazutora dude is nuts |
 |
| >kills mikey's brother >realizes the severity of the situation >decides killing mikey is the solution. >??? Gtfo, that some retarded ass logic. But I guess for a psychotic dumb middle school delinquent like Kazutora it would make sense in some way. Outside of that dumb conclusion the rest of the episode was great. |

| man they really just took a whole episode to explain the flashback and here i was excited to see our boy Chifuyu :(( |
| man seeing Mikey's brother made me so sad... Kaztura panicking! |
| Aw little Baji has a little fang, that's cute. But anyways, yeah Kazutora obviously has a few screws loose, given how nonchalant he was for trying to steal a bike, bashing another guy in the head so hard he kills him and not really caring until he found out the guy's identity, and shifting the entire blame on Mikey. Dude's definitely a psycho, and him killing Mikey's brother definitely fucked his brain up even more. Sad thing is, I'm willing to bet the brother would've let them go since they're Mikey's best friends. |
