Pretty good episode. So far all I've noticed is that the characters arcs all progress the same way. They want something, they can't do it/get it, and they end up doing something else... It's a bit annoying, but still a pretty good show so far.

I'm pretty disappointed they wasted an episode on this fat ass >.>, although I do like how they're giving every character their own arc to make it fair. I'm starting to lose interest in the anime though and kinda wishing they would have ended after the main plot finished.

Not quite one of my favorite chars and I'm fairly glad they pulled his arc off in one ep only. Was still pretty ok I guess. I just wonder if Cabbage is really dumb or if he's just far too nice.. probably the first.

Agreed. I think the niceness comes from the naive stupidity he has. Cabbage is a good supporting character but he is too bright for this type of show to do much. Glad he wasn't completely left out.

Looks like Baremoto goes blind with love next episode? What type of girl is he picking up that soldier needs to beat him up? >.>

Nice reflexes under pressure. I didn't expect him to grab a chair though, let alone smack him with it.

It wasn't especially exciting but all great manga/anime have a humerous side story before we reach a cllimax.

This is possibly because of the madhouse connection, but this reminds me of that episode of Death Note where Matsuda almost gets himself killed.

Boring and a bit of a waste. Did we need an episode to reinforce the fact that all Cabbage is good for is eating and using his body? The fact that Baremoto couldn't think of a good job for him makes his intelligence greatly diminish in my eyes.

in order to help enjoy this kind of episode, it's best to just to go with the flow and stop overly thinking.. otherwise, this will turn out boring and feel wasted because it's Cabbage that is being focused here.. thankfully, it's just short and at least it wasn't overly bad.. somehow, i ended up laughing and being glad for the guy..

I missed some eps due to the holiday, so I watched this after I watched some others. Like that it's really not boring at all.

But yes, Soldier deserves a good arc. We hardly see anything from him. Turtle should get one also, he shows up alot but only for other people.

Mario is starting to bore me slightly. Yes we get it, he's super cool and just like Anchan

A nice little episode - I kind of appriciated a lighter tone after the doom and gloom of Joe not truly fulfilling his dream.

It seems like they're tying up loose ends with every character right now so I can't think the show will go on for much longer - does any one know what the final episode count is going to be?

While i was watching this i was thinking: "why doesn't he just become a sumo wrestler". I mean he big strong and fat so his perfect for something like that. And in the end he basically become something like that.

Personally i found it good that they managed to finish in one episode Cabbage story and they put a little humor in it too. It was nice watching a more lighthearted episode. Now let's go for Baremoto.

The atmosphere of the episode was just like Cabbage's personality and I think in a show like this there needs to be at least one episode what is a bit less depressing and dark but instead a little more lighthearted.
I loved everyone's expression when Cabbage told them how he smashed the chair to that guy's head.~

Sad that the fat guy is always going to be the token fat guy who is only good for eating and the occasional use of freakish strength.

And I had a weird feeling come over me where I felt like the narrator is Anchan.
Yes I know it's a woman speaking that's why i'm saying it's weird. o_o

Hahaha basically.

When the Narrator said "Good job Cabbage! You can eat all you want now!" I just laughed really hard. Good job fatass. You can eat all the food you want now. It's all this show thinks you're good for anyway.

Nice, Rainbow....Nice.

I liked the lighthearted mood in this episode, it was quite refreshing. Cabbage was hilarious in this episode, and it's good to see that there were people in the yakuza that had a heart despite Cabbage's constant blunders. At least he has found a place where he could stay!

Wasn't Cabbage working as a construction worker, did he get laid off? They should have made him a bouncer or a heavy lifter or maybe even a sumo wrestler, o good Arita had the same idea.
