I have a pet theory Majima is a disillusioned LilyBell, and that his (and Chisato's) physical enhancements go further than revealed up to this point. And it has to go further than just artificial hearts and even skeletal durability, since 1) Majima survived without even any burns from a fireball that exploded next to him, and 2) Chisato's face doesn't show any signs of multiple blows delivered by Majima, when the show made a point to feature Takina's face bandage from Fuki's punch in ep.1.

If the writers are smart, they'll reveal those things sooner rather than later so they don't seem like an asspull in the last few episodes of the cour.


Yesssss definitely agree on that. My biggest fear is that it turns out to be nothing and they just forgot. My mind keeps going to Marvel's Black Widow movie, and how someone there takes an explosion to the face and sustain no injuries whatsoever when they have no reason not to. I really really hope we don't get that here.


I'm concerned. There are potential explanations for almost everything, but at this point, they'll have to play the plot cards JUST right in order to pull it off.

I would have more faith in the show except for the occasional inexplicable sloppiness like non-lethal armor-piercing bullets, and Not-So-Silent Jin the 1-Episode Plot Device. There's no rationalizing those.

I guess even the mighty Chisato can't see when her eyes are blinded. If the green haired guy can dodge Chisato's shots, does that he's some kind of a hotshot? How that guy didn't die being very near to the explosion is unfathomable. Very resilient.

Damn Chisato taking in all those punches, I feel genuinely bad for her.

The method to beat Chisato in Rock Paper Scissors is basically the equivalent of punching the opponent when you’re expected to show sportsmanship, kinda like this, but at the start of a round: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjfHuAVig9g&t=34s

On another note, Chisato committed way too many mistakes in that last night action scene, especially in her duel with Majima (what kind of elite trooper with a loaded gun would let her disarmed opponent stay within range to fight back hand-to-hand and turn back the tables?)

Majima should be insanely strong if he can be unscathed by a bazooka shot beside him. He kinda looks like Spike but he's dumb

No way they got to sleepover for a week and the chores was a landslide after rock paper scissors a whole week of chores

Intruders they're going to taste a beating from Chisato, wait again no shot they go after her for the second time, Lilybell a male lycoris that should be interesting that I want to see even a glimpse of it, Oh no Kurumi's secret is up and I did wonder how they didn't have suspicions from the start

I honestly thought this was Chisato's demise after the plot was so clear and direct towards her supposed death this episode but damn I'm wrong to anyone praying for her downfall we lost deadass, fuck Majima dudes honestly on cracked prob from too many harem shows...wait.

First half was cute, Takina staying with Chisato for safety purposes before organising specific who does what for chores, proceeds to lose every single Rock paper scissors game. Her reaction was actually perfection, didn't expect it, laughed my ass off. The ending was also wholesome af, Chisato's reaction of being caught off guard, to Takina's actual cries of joy made me feel happy.

Second half was intense, the drop of Kurumi being the hacker that breached DA and leaked the ID of many Lycoris, and how all the Lycoris involved with the first arms deal were personally unknowing of the fact that DA were using them as decoys to lure Majima out even if they were to be killed. Ngl personally think cements how shitty DA are for their use of Lycoris, I mean sacrifice a few to save the many but really the Lycoris are, as far as i'm aware, all orphans yet to reached their late teens. The DA is their home and family and i can imagine they place a lot of trust into the higher ups and commander, so its kinda sickening to think DA are still willing to treat them as disposable.

Chisato getting jumped by Majima's crew before making a get away only for a brutal fist fight and having the entire cafe crew extract her was intense. Interestingly Majima recognised the Alan Institute badge on Chisato, and even brought up her being an Alan Insitute Lycoris which brings up even more questions about wtf Alan Insitute has to do with Lycoris or Chisato.

I will say i'm a, bit surprised Majima survived an RPG exploding a car literally in arms reach from him and getting hurled into a river unconscious coming out barely unscathed. You'd think that either the explosion, shrapnel or being thrown into a lake would get him but nah, although, not all injuries can be visual so it's my head cannon that the shock wave from the explosion did some serious numbers to his brain and he also has permanent tinnitus that is driving him even more mad.
Lmao him getting hit in the head by a rubber round while in a moving vehicle going 50+ mph causing him to fall out, first probably didn't help his head and second did more injury to him then the fucking explosion lol.

Finally, Chisato got defeated both by majima and takina.

I hope majima beats her again. That was a good way he defeated her.

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.


I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death.

So Chisato can dodge bullets but not spit? Sure... And if she's aware that her eyes are her weakness, why doesn't she do anything about it? Like using fucking goggles or something?

But man, this episode sure was ridiculously bad. From Chisato getting hit by a car and moving as if it was nothing to freaking Majima surviving an explosion without a single scratch on his face. AND NOT TO MENTION KURUMI BEING REVEALED AS THE CULPRIT FOR ALL THE CHAOS REGARDING THE MISSING GUNS AND KILLED LYCORIS BUT ALL THAT MATTERS TO THE MAIN CAST IS HOW SHE INCONVENIENCED POOR TAKINA. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

Past couple of days ago I rewatched the scene with Mr. Robota engaging with the various hackers, and I realized that the avatar for the hacker that got busted by the police was BUER from the _Pandora in a Crimson Shell_ franchise, which is a nice cameo. Don't know if there's a connection between the series beyond that it "looks cool", however.

Bad episode. If you want to keep people surviving yet see them being defeated, then please don't blow them up with a rocket launcher.

It is starting really to get good! Was awesome to see Chisato finally struggle some after seeming invincible, and then to see Tikina come in for the rescue!! They make such an awesome pair. I like the villain too. Hopefully we see some more of what he is really capable of doing.

Eh, not really out of character. She has been opening up gradually ever since she partnered with Chisato. And constantly losing at rock paper scissors and being Chisato's servant was really annoying her.
