Yes artificial heart... wouldn't be fun without these kinda things. Curious to see just how far Alan Institute and Chisato goes back, and i'm expecting a backstory pretty sooner.

Action scenes were more than good as usual, though lol that legacy of secret assassin.

Great episode. I won't comment too much. So from this episode i can conclude that Alan institute wants to create a killing machine and it's chisato. In this episode they have tested Chisato by sending a fake missions. This is just my speculation.

That president's family prob has his family at gunpoint, Now coming back to that train "accident" it sure was hell on earth and the detectives are coming in overtime and got a clue in their very hands

A shocker really why Chisato has a pacemaker and that adds up to why she was looking for someone and that "someone" was looking out for her, Oh no Mizuki is dead meat she ain't ready for that, So Teach knows this assassin

Takina tackled that mf ass to the ground like 4 floors high or something, That graze wound is something else she was bleeding so rapidly and scarily, And the ending was brutal that was crooked.

It was awesome and amazing. That was a nice plot twist that the old naman or they guy didn't exist. It seems the green guy is starting to attack Lycoris now.

It has a nice life-hearted bit, while still reminding that things are not quite as it seems

The small details that are revealed about Chisato are also played as a matter of fact with Takina as an interesting vehicle for the discovery

The foreshadowing of bigger forces at play, even more secretive than the Lycoris and the small hints that things are not quite as it seems between the episode's antagonist and the LycoReco team is a clear sign that this episode uses what looks like filler to hint at a growing involvement of the enigmatic group that has plans for Chisato

Overall, really enjoyable and light-hearted with the fighting kept impactful and keeping the supposed enemy of the episode well-rounded

Loving the pacing so far and the story is luring me in more and more. I hope the detectives keep on trying to piece everything together they would make for some interesting plot/character developments.

Sightseeing ep was calm, anime has really great scenery in it i will say. Who ever was behind Mr. Matsushita played everyone like a fiddle after a long build up, action was decent as well seeing a 2v1 of trained assassins fight.

Pretty big reveal that Chisato has an artificial heart that doesn't beat, i'm guessing her quick reflexes have something to do with it. However it really begs more questions like what caused her to have it in the first place and how why Alan institute were the ones that provided it. It also seems obvious that the person behind Mr. Matsushita wanted to directly interact with Chisato for some reason, trying to force her hand with persona of Mr. Matsushita.

Antag from last episode seems to have his own mercenary group of sorts with how quickly he's able to bounce back from the metro attempt. Although he seems kinda crazed, he also seems like a mastermind with how he baited the Lycoris out. Never a good thought that a borderline Heath ledger Joker with a mercenary group is starting a mass hunt for Lycorism, and even more concerning that a top institute is possibly planning to hire him.

Well they failed again ;o They would fail few times, there was dead flag in nakamise shopping street and on the ship when he went inside... they are a failure as bodyguards... that big breasted girl is also lame, she shouldn't risk so much if she cannot fight...
That mechanical heart... I wonder if there is any important meaning for it, for now it seems the author only wanted to add more things that do not matter
That heart can't make her dodge bullets, it's not muscles,
if he wanted to make some secret connection to some secret agency maybe some nano implants would be better, that for example can kill her from the inside ;o

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

Engineer here. Chisato not having heartbeat made me notice that someone would probably test continuous-flow pumps for humans. Sure enough, they did. And since 2012, continuous-flow heart implants are, according to the source*, more common than heartbeat-mimicking pumps. Survival rates are higher.

Interesting, right? Instead of having a pulsing heart, many implant users have non-beating hearts. Their blood is continuously flowing in their bodies. If you know more than the average person about human blood circulation(probably an interested high school student or higher for most countries), I think it's more interesting.

Blood flow being very variable may have many results. The first thing I can think of is the one way valves around the body. There are many check-valve veins, which are like mini heats. When you move your body, those veins got compresssed and push the blood in addition to the heart pump. Since those valve veins are following each other, every movement of the body helps heart in pumping.

The blood flow having slow periods may also have some effects in blood's client cells(made-up term: I mean all the body cells that exchange materials with the blood). Continuous flow may result in differences in blood-cell material exchanges.

I'm just a mechanical oriented general engineer. I'm not qualified in giving quality information any of these. It's just very interesting, so that I wanted to share my excitement and thoughts.

Shows how much of a novice she is, who in the right mind would get so near to their target (literally a few footsteps away) just to shoot them? If it was Takina, that guy would've been dead long before car-kun even arrives.

Trained assassin and shit yet she couldn't see nor hear a sports car coming her way at full speed. Yeah, that Lycoris deserved to die.
And also, how come no one in this city can hear gunshots? A teenager was massacred in the middle of a crossroad ffs.

Well its basically true, isn't it? If you aren't working in the Café, we don't care too much about happens to you.

This is one of those shows that lacks any kind of internal logic. One minute, licorices are dodging bullets and bouncing off the walls, next they are trying to stick a gun in someone's back in the middle of an intersection.

LOL, I can totally relate! There is a lot of set-up here for something way more profound and emotional than I actually want to watch. Hopefully it saves the melodrama for the finale, but I expect the gut-punches to come sooner unfortunately.

Each passing episode, mystery about Chisato is opened bit by bit, nice to know and nice quite intense episode :)

That last Lycoris looks like boy in disguise, it's kinda weird she didn't just shot that man right away but oh well, that's mob character for you.

bumping this to 7/10. i liked the first episode and the mc but figured her personality would eventually bore me and/or be "too much". but that hasn't happened. and there is more to this story than i expected. like, holy shit, someone's trying to assassinate all the lycoris? and i still don't quite get the whole deal with the owl institute thing. i know they've hinted at things in other episodes but i guess i'll just have to keep watching

Even the police chief/detective doesn't know anything about the gun gang vs the Lycoris unit?

So the Alan institute implanted a high-tech artificial heart in Chisato when she was young. No wonder she wasn't losing her breath while doing those strenuous activities with Fuki during her license renewal. I guess it basically an arc reactor minus the light and suit powering? Like a cyber enhancement of some sort?

So that old guy was basically fictional. The real target was Silent Jin. I presume Yoshi planned all of this.

Majima and his gun gang are now targeting Lycoris' individually?

Jin was just allowed to leave after some chat? That's far more lenient treatment than I was expecting.

Chisato has a mechanical heart, but I still find that more believable than her ludicrous dodging skills.

Oh this episode is really fun.

That Jin guy is actually John Wick (Waver edition).

Chisato has no heart. (she has an... atomic heart)

Yuri moment: Takina listened Chisato's heartbeat.
