I thought this episode was very good.

To all those Rico Fans, you will love this episode.
You get to see her kick-ass gun skills here.

I thought it was funny when she smiled as she headshoted the 1 person in the boat, and killed the other 2.

Look forward to episode 02 (watching very soon).

The best episode I've seen this week ;) Great, I always wanted to know more about Jean and Rico, and this episode was extremely good.

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

Good episode, but.....WTF? No Henrietta the whole ep? And, it needed moar action, what's up with them not showing Rico's assault on the house? It's a shame to, b/c the animation quality was definitely stepped way up for this. The colors were beautiful, and the animation is crystal clear. So much more vivid and fluid than the series. Though, I still like the animation from the first series better, the second series and this OVA's are much better quality. I hope there's somewhat of a closure in the next/final episode. And, it better star Henrietta and Josei. And, it better have all the rest of the girls to, especially Triella. It's a shame Pinnochio's dead, I would've like to have seen their final fight with this quality of animation!!! Can't wait to watch the final, but it'll be sad to be finished with Gunslinger Girl for good!! Urahara Out!!

It always makes me laugh seeing the Jean x Rico partnership. He is such a dick to her, but she just doesn't care. Its cute. :)

Pretty average addition to the main story, the pacing was very weak though well let's see what the last episode has to offer from this franchise!

SO I guess this is the direct continuation of S2!? They didn't mention anything from S2 though...

This episode got good pacing, action and some actual comprehensible story, it's fun to watch!

Guess there's nothing about Franco and Franca, they're really dead afterall

Well, I didn't like season two so I can't imagine liking this either. Even so, I'll take the +1 to my completed list for a mere two episodes.

Ironically, the art and animation, somehow, seem, at the very least, one step ahead of season two. Otherwise there isn't much to say. It's just more random side stories with no real connection to anything. I'm not even particularly show how to rate this.

For someone that is usually very mean to Rico (to the point of hitting her in s1), it was nice seeing Jean save her out of the ocean and letting her play on the beach.

Plenty of Rico in this episode, she always looks so innocent.
A bit of Angelica too.
