Time and Time again Gabi makes us question if he is human. Even the Hermit was flabbergasted bro was like "How are you still standing are you sure you are a human🤔😂😂?" When they started duking out the blows I was like DAMN SON. This guy can move. It seems Mei can give her aura to others which is why Gabi managed to hurt the hermit. It also seems like the hermit's Exlir works like a battery. When he started dreaming I really thought Gabi was dead😔😔. If he drinks the Exlir OH MY DAYS IS IT GAME OVER FOR EVERYONE. AN IMMORTAL GABI👀👀👀👀👀👀👀

It looks like the extra week helped, as the fight animation was clearly and noticeably better in this episode. Gabimaru did an impressive job of holding his own against Zhu Jin, until he entered his Kishikai transformation.

I really like the Tensen designs to be honest, but I still think that not explaining Gabimaru's power source is nothing more than an excuse to have a protagonist with a meaningless broken power scale.

It was literally said in this episode lmao. It’s called Tao so what you’re saying makes 0 sense lol.

For me, definitely a weaker episode.
The new lore about the Tensen and villagers was interesting. The animation was beautiful as always.
But Gabimaru deciding that he had to go complete his mission Right Now... Why? The last few episodes have been all about how incredibly strong the "gods" are. Our adventurers agreeing that going slow and gathering information was the best plan. Why?
I'm invested. I'm staying till ther end. But

Yay!
Gabimaru goes 'Last Ditch Effort' mode.
How likely will we see this again in a future episode, I'm betting at least one more.
Then if not, maybe next season, if it's in the works.

ok seriously, i need Yuzuriha to actually be the center of attention for once instead of just kinda being "there"


that fight was pretty badass though, considering we haven't really gotten many fights





and ofc....




most of the 7 gods prefer being guys.... 

My favourite part was when the yellow haired guy said that he was just “curious” about being a girl but actually prefers being a guy. He looked better as a guy anyway

Damn that was a pretty crazy fight. Gabimaru just barely was able to get out of it and he wouldnt have if he didnt have help escaping.

Seven of those Tensen to deal with? That's quite a bit. I like how they have floral appearances.

OMG! Gabimaru is so stronk! might be almost S-tier! haha! (at this point Gabimaru might be the strongest of the criminals huh...)
He went one-on-one with the enemy who defeated Tenza on the prev ep!!
5/5.

This episode served the purpose of showing us Gabimaru's (current) absolute capabilities, but it's apparent that cooperation is the only way forward, at which point I think that the cast will be fine. Consider that Gabimaru was unable to deal with Rokurouta on his own either, but with the help of just one Asaemon (given Sagiri is one of the best), he dispatched him without being pushed to his limits.


Also, I love that the brothers (supposedly) managed to escape the hell pit, I wanted to see more of them. I guess that from here on out we might be going the Terraformars formula of reluctant allies perishing one after another to take down the enemy forces.

With the amount of damage Gabimaru has received since he stepped foot on this island, he might as well be the actual immortal here.

A cool frame at 14:14

Kinda funny how all Tensen have the same male and female VA
I'm a bit disappointed with that but I guess after that explanation about how the Tensen were one being split into seven it kinda make sense why they're all the same

Gabimaru has his first duel with a Tensen and shit was brutal. Animation was good, pretty fluent and the choreography was decent. Some of the scenes you could feel the impact of the blows, and overall it looked like a good fight even if the logic of Gabimaru taking on a God seems a bit wonky.
 
Yeh so pretty crazy that Gabimaru can stand pretty much on par with a "god". Even if it looked like he actually landed a blow with the kick, he beat it's ass fast enough it couldn't regenerate and until it pulled out its trump card. Genuinely curious if they'll give a reason, other then MC plot armour, to why Gabimaru is able to stand face to face with them.

All things considered tho, did seem like Gabimaru was bested in the duel. I also find it wild how Shinobu like Gabimaru have some final stand mechanism were they unconsciously use their last draw of breath to do as much damage to the opponent as possible. Like how the fuck do you train a human to go as far as to do that.
 
Pretty big lore dumb on the Tensen. There are seven of them that rule the island, but apparently they use to be a singular Hermit who mastered the arts and became a God that split into seven parts that all have different roles. They are very much immortal with some incredibly strength, which we've seen, but an interesting take from Gabimaru, "They're neither hermits nor gods. They're true monsters." it's true that after seeing that Tensen's true form and Gabimaru pushing it to its absolute limits, they can be seen more as monsters then anything, but the talking tree did say the Tensen is a singular person who became a god, so i'm confused on whether they are actually gods or just monsters that were worshipped as gods from their powers.
Granted Gabimaru did get deaths door, so i wouldn't be shocked if he hit his head a bit to hard and now is a bit crazed.
 
Either way, fighting words from Gabimaru to say to acquire that he'll have to "defeat them" to get the Elixir. I'm surprised he hasn't considered like, you know, sneaking in and taking it, cus after one fight he was beat so hard he envisioned his wife. This truly might be the closest thing to "An unstoppable force meeting an immovable object."
