very immersive like usual, no musical number to drastically gas the rating but i still got a kick out of the most inappropriate scenes
loving the character developments and the exploration of the trauma nagomi pulled through after her first night and the other characters' individuality, such as yumechi being a pathological genius and tenchou being a miserable self-absorbed doofus who keeps getting everyone involved in her problems

Loved the casino theme this ep had. Shit was suspenseful when it turned into a poker game for their lives and not just the café.
Reminded me of 2006 James Bond Casino Royal, except Yumechi might of saw through their plan but tripped before the finish line.

It's only been two episode but i think Ranko is my favourite, little expression, little words, shoots first, knows Gun karate, could fucking kill me if she wanted, and her VA Satou Rina does a fitting job for her. Tenchous' character gives me borderline Reigen from MobPsycho vibes with how optimistic and expressive they can be, even in bad situations.

If there is a bigger in-joke, it went over my head.

One way of creating comedy is that the situation becomes unbearable for the characters in it, but it keeps getting worse Here we only really get a couple of laughs at the climax that reverses what Yumechi was expecting in the poker game. The rest is slap-stick comedy about what is actually at stake (do we really believe that they'll be on a boat catching crabs?). So far we don't really see why we should care about the cafe closing or why the girls should and when Ranko pulls out her deus-ex machina, it seems curiously empty.

With a manager like that, I can see why Oinky Doink has money problems.
Gotta say for a 35-year old Ranko sure has been a blast so far

How incredibly unfunny. That comedy tag has no reason being there. Also 95% of the episode was a gigantic snoozefest until the
shootout at the end. Also it's weird how they ran out of ideas 2 episodes in so they had to do the same thing twice already. That really doesn't bode
well for the other 10 episodes. Yeah Ranko is cool and mysterious and then shoots everyone. Manager is a waste of space and has no regard
for the life of her workers. We get it. Also there is a panda. Wow how crazy is that.

This anime finally answered the question many of us get when watching a movie, tv show or book where we'd ask "ok but what if they just shoot them to get out of this?". I wish it showed the violence that was in the first episode, but I still loved it. The grenade catch was badass.
