THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
They managed to get away from those lizard creatures but unfortunately, Kiyoshi gets a huge bite in his leg in the process. Himiko finally recovers and asks Ryouta if he did anything with her body. Obviously, Ryouta remembers his actions and studders giving his answer. Himiko is not pleased one bit, lol.

Ryouta and Masashi have an encounter at the end of the episode.

Coolest shot is the End Card and I am still enthralled by the God-Trigger Hand of Famicon Takahashi Meijin ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takahashi_Meijin ) voicing this chap.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Yeah the anime is rushing, they won't have enough material to cover it all.

Next preview will be nice Sakamoto saving Himiko, that will build up they relationships. :)

Haven't watched the Ep yet, but judging by the comments it got rushed a little bit. I've read up to the latest chapter so xD.

Taira's right. Karma's a bitch and will come back to bite you in the ass. Anyways, it was an okay episode. Taira is so brave and so is Sakamoto there. I found Himeko to be annoying but oh well.

Now for an obligatory psycho face of Sakamoto:

Good episode even though it's a little rushed. I still liked seeing it, but I still wish that they didn't rush this part since I think that it's one of the good ones from the manga.

Himiko was a little bitchy in this this episode. I understand that she's been traumatized but still. Her saving grace in this episode was that she volunteered to be the decoy in the end. Hopefully she'll be a little more trusting of Sakamoto in the next episode when he saves her.

Too bad Taira got bit protecting Himiko. I knew all along what was going to happen to him but seeing it still made me feel so sorry for him -


This show deserves more than 12 episodes to fit everything in. From what I heard, they're going for an anime original ending and so they have to get all of the parts covered by the manga out of the way in order to end it in 12 episodes. God I hope that they don't make it like the SAO and ruin things by rushing everything. This show deserves better than that.

They get away from the lizards but Taira-san got bit in the process. I think in real life if someone got bit by a komodo dragon the saliva would've acted a lot faster than it did here, their mouths are just covered in bacteria from a class I remembered

I've been seeing a lot of comments of people complaining how slow it's going since the length is only 13 episodes but I personally don't mind it. Just gives me all the more reason for a season 2 : )

Will there be a season 2? From what I've heard, this will be only one season and will diverge from the manga at some point and have its own ending.

It wouldn't have acted a lot faster but you can't disinfect a komodo dragon bite with just water. He should die in a few days if doesn't get medical help/antibiotics

Those wounds were also pretty deep and leaving them open like that would make the infection worse. I would've burned those wounds to close them up and kill off some of those germs from the bite.

They certainly rushed it a bit but I think it still was a fine episode. Not to mention they wouldn't be able to end season 1 with a decent conclusion if they don't rush it.

We will get to see a lot of action next episode. Yay.

Is it just me or are their noses a lot bigger than most anime..?

Yeah that's the thing about komodos, they'll bite something and just leave it to die if they can't catch em at first. Their saliva is chock full of bacteria and the like

Whats with that guy's employee?! @_@ Looks brainwashed or something.

Lol, next episode he's going to find out she's his virtual wife. It'll be interesting to see what comes out of that.

If you really want to fit in, just put Legend of the Galactic Heroes in your top 5 and have it be the only 10-rated anime in your list.

Are they rushing? Because looking at the anime alone (have not read the manga), the pacing looks fine and I do not feel it's rushed, at least I don't feel something is missed out due to any pacing issue. I guess it means the adaptation and abridging is done well?
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

To be honest I think the pacing is fine but I'm surprised that they're already at chapter 20+. Chapter 50 would probably get animated at this rate, I hope it does. :D

Really liked how they it showed that both Taira and Ryota were doubting each other if they were gonna betray each other or not. Some realism there. :) Himiko having emotional breakdowns and pushing Ryota away is also very realistic since she's androphobic.

Ryota's going out as a decoy and then Masashi comes out. Next episode, Himiko gets captured and Ryota comes to the rescue. Fuck yeah, one of my favourite moments in Btooom! CAN'T WAIT. :)

They are rushing in the best way possible, it's a great adaptation they are doing. For example, this episode 6 ends about chapter 23, and the manga has 53 until now.

I really don't like heroines like Himiko.

She brings more baggage of problems than help and not only she is a walking rapeable fanservice bimbo, she's a damsel in distress type of character.

People who are complaining about Himiko should realize that she's only a 15 years old girl who saw her friends get raped and one day she is kidnapped and wakes up in the middle of a death game in a island in the middle of nowhere, and in the first day a fat guy tries to rape her. So how will she be okay with that and trust men?

Man was wondering when the Kommodo dragon toxic from their saliva was gonna kick in.
For a second I really thought Sakamoto was going to abandon them. This show is good at making you second guess the characters.
Also Himiko really needs to snap out of it. Sure things happened but still I feel that she's being overly cautious. Next episode looks good.

I doubt that I will be a good guy given the condition in Btooom. But yeah, I would like to save a cute girl like Himiko.

I'm glad that Sakamoto could still feel suspicious about her. He's a good guy, but he's not stupid. And so, Taira's a good person. But, I wonder.. what if they have got 6 crystal? (You need 7 to be free, right? Or it's 8? Nevermind, you'll get my point) One of them only have to backstab his/her friend and there you go, a freedom. OH, Taira's the one who's keeping the crystals (from the dead bodies) and I can't recall that Sakamoto & Himiko have known it. Well, Taira's still suspicious then..

And oh wow. From the preview, seems like Sakamoto will realize that he is really a lucky guy, got a hot-in-real-life-virtual wife. How's the chance you could get it? Pretty girls in online game? There's anime for you..
Waiting for next week anime gives me another reason to live.

Komodo Dragon Facts:


1. What they usually do is bit the prey and let it escape, co'z their mouths contains a cocktail of germs.

2. After biting, they would follow their prey's scent, FYI it usually takes days before the prey dies of infection and if they do it would usually take hours before the Komodo Dragon can locate and eat his prey, but not without having competitions from other dragons.

3. Humans rarely die from a dragon's bite, in a worst case scenario if left untreated the victim will suffer a high fever and eventually gangrene will set in the bite area and it usually result in amputation.
