Amazing episode. So glad to finally some Aramaki getting some screen time, and Major at the same time. I've got a feeling like these two figures got just way too much in common.

Hate to necro a thread but I located the Song at the end of the piece.

Cream - Hide

This is for all the people who dont sign up and are looking for the OST. After a couple hours of digging I found it.

They made an instrumental version for the Anime, So get ready for some lyrics you werent prepared for.

5/5 for the Episode btw. Aramaki is prob my fav Character next to Batou

I didn't even know I wanted a Chief-centred episode until this came up. Now I want more!

The chief was awesome.

At first I wasn't too fond of the Standalone episodes, but now I seriously dig them and how they add so much to the characters. One of the very best episodic shows I've seen.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

I had utterly and completely forgotten about this episode, specially about the British setting. It's so cool and Aramaki is such a smooth badass.
Speaking of which, the art looked a bit different, specially Motoko. Not that I complain because she looks real good!

I have a question. What's the song on the background at the end of the episode?
(when they say farewell)

The only thing the singer says is "na na na na", lol.
Does anyone know?


Just came across it. Its name is "cream" if you still searching for it

I liked the details, especially because I live there

5* ep. Kept me interested and helped me like Aramaki a little more, which is a good thing.


Found the title of the song after 30 mins. of searching. It is in the "Be Human" OST, the title is "Cream" by Yoko Kanno.


Thank you!

I know this is an old comment, but thank you so much for posting the name of the song! I was trying to find it for a good 10-15 minutes or so : )

The day was saved thanks to horny cop.

His tone when he said "What do you mean, personal matter?" made me wheeze lol.

Not my jurisdiction, NOT MY PROBLEM BOIIIII!!!! But hey with one day left here why don't we take down a money laundering scheme while we're at it.

Almost as a reward for his deeds, I'd say Aramaki gets somewhat rewarded with the reveal this his old time "friend" never was married. She asks him to stay an additional day, but MAN AIN'T NO SIMP YOOO

I actually loved this episode, it’s so great to see more of Aramaki, you see he’s way more complex than just the badass leader that put other high officers in their places, he’s a badass in strategy and extreme situations as well! That aside you can clearly see a more personal side of him in this episode, and I appreciate that a lot. In other fields, where tf is the Laughing Man? We haven’t had a Complex episode since episode 11
