Jesus Christ, so much teasing with death. I almost thought that Zack would actually kill Rachel for a minute this episode.

I was not expecting for her to hold Cathy at gunpoint though.
On the other hand, the fight between Cathy and Zack ended in the way I had expected. Cathy honestly got what she deserved imo.

This series really means it when Zack is the only one allowed to kill her.

So that was what happened in Zack's past that got him locked in the maze. But to think that those injections caused this turn of events though. But the killing game though sure was something. Tense but also providing some insight into Rachel's bond with Zack. But its good that they managed to outsmart Catherine. Still that really was a lot of teasing on Catherine's part before her demise. They really are hammering in the fact that Zack is the only one that can kill Rachel though.

Next episode is where things get serious. All the episodes from now on will be incredible if they adapt the source well.

I knew it. Even though I have never played or seen the Angels of Death game, I knew there would be more to it. I can understand if people are feeling bored with this anime. That is to be expected. A lot of the game would have you running around trying to figure out puzzles and stuff anyway. It would be hard to fill in the gaps in anime. But these RPG Maker games always tend to present us some unexpectedly amazing stories by the end of it all. It's already starting to look interesting. And from experience, I can only imagine things getting a whole lot more interesting. ^_^

This ^^^^

I do know tho, why most game adaptations don't do well, sometimes they just don't know how to fill the gaps where the game is playable so they just rush things which ends up sacrificing development and dialogues that were really important in-game. I really liked this episode, Zack and Rachel's chemistry is really good.

Why is Rachel the sinner, this ambiguity towards the characters has left me so fixated on I wing more; some people hated the depth given to the characters -but honestly, it's really working for them.
Can't wait for next week 'cause it was surprising to see Zack last so long with that wound of his... That couldn't have been the end of him.

Zack really needs to calm down with the screeching.

It was very satisfying to see Rachel and Zack destroy that crazy bitch, let's see where the story goes from here (especially with that ending).

Rachel shot Cathy and it was amazing! <3 But yeah, where did she get that gun from and why she's here? Flashback only showed some man killing someone, so his is just a wild guess but maybe he was Ray's dad (or stepfather, or a legal guardian) who killed her mom and then got killed by Ray? And is Rachel even her true name? I'm just not sure how to interpret that scene where she opens the door with Zack's name and throws away her own.

That was my best episode so far, in my opinion. The ‘BANG!’ and Zack’s smile at the end were my favorite things in this series.

I’m mostly enjoying this series... Especially the ED, which I just cannot get enough of. But, the previous episode rose my first ever criticism of the show. That being; It didn’t really make sense to me that Cathy had set up such an elaborate puzzle for both Zack and Rachel to figure out, that seemed to cut him very closely to the mark of his past, in as little time as they had been on her specific floor. Unless she somehow knew ahead of time that Zack would eventually be led there, or there is some grand puppet master overseeing all of this, who orchestrated it to work out that way, it seemingly couldn’t have been anyone’s foregone conclusion that Zack and Rachel would team up together, and traverse all of the floors, as they’ve been doing.

My other gripe is the laughter... It is brutally annoying, to me. It is so forced, and doesn’t half leave me suspecting that the seiyuu for both Cathy and Zack probably cornered the market on throat lozenges.

I continue to be impressed with this show. I know that some viewers get bored with the show due to the escape game setting, but I for one like to see how the different triggers apply to the character's pasts. It was so satisfying to see Cathy get shot, especially by our Creepy® Rachel! You slay, gurl! And after getting glimpses of Rachel's past, I'm dying (figuratively) to get the full story, especially for the reason why she would be the sinner even compared with Zach...

Finally, the crazy laughing b*** is gone xD
Rachel considers herself a sinner, that's why she didn't put her name...i wonder what she really did to end up there.

It was expected that something like this would happen, i think she will have to use her "ability" to save him, even though that we don't know how it works but i may guess that it's the only way to save him.

Just noticed that this anime has 16 episodes confirmed, we still have so much that we don't know.

I'm happy that they are slowly showing us the backstory of the main characters but without ruining the fun and action.

And on another note; thank God Catherine is finally dead! I can't stand that sadistic b!#*h any more

Also I love the fact that almost everyone ship Isaac with Rachel and everyone is ashamed of it

I hope Zack gets saved somehow, if he dies it's half the enjoyment of the show gone in one sweep, and we still have like 10 episodes to go. Btw, why does he wear bandages, are his face and arms burnt or something? Hopefully it's answered somewhere along the way.

Rachel is intriguing enough (that obsession with religion and being a sinner has to come from somewhere), but she really shines the brightest when she's with Zack who's her opposite.

So glad they added Zack's smile from the manga at the end.
Also the adaption at the bang scene is pretty faithful. Not bad.

So far characters feel unreal.
Zacc was used, so he decided to kill his foster parents. You need to have a fucked up mentality to come up with such a decision.
I also feel like Rachel's a cyborg.
The side characters are even worse. They are even edgier than the protagonists. They have nothing in their characteristics other than a sense of madness.
The lack of dialogue makes the character dynamics feel very fake.
No idea how this is the most watched anime of the season.

This episode was really bloody but there weren’t any innards or muscle fibers or bones sticking out so it isn’t half as bad as other series as I’ve seen.

I felt bad for Zack, he grew up with fucked up people around him. He doesn’t know how to read which is why he relied on Rachel to do all the reading. No wonder he became a psychotic murderer. Still despite it, he has “some” restraint. It was painful to see him struggle and then eventually slash himself.

The way Cathy died was satisfying, especially after Rachel whipped out her own gun and shot her then ultimately, Cathy died with her own machine guns pumping her with a thousand bullets.

Then of course, Zacks bleeds out in the elevator.

Good episode. I like their relationship - finally something different and original. The OST is good and the plot is not insulting so far. I expected this to be much more edgy and stupid but other than their laughing moments(way too much of them) this is pretty enjoyable.

She threw her name because she considers herself a sinner.


The real question here is not her point of view. She coonsiders herself a sinner but she is also considered a sinner by "the game" or the "game mastermind". Otherwise the door would not open. On top of that all those little hints are refereing to God. Not a coincidence. Thats why this is pretty interesting.

And to be honest Rachel is a perfect criminal. Cold, ruthless criminal. Zack is killing because he cant contain himself and because of a trauma. He has clear motivation and you can predict his behaviour. On the other hand Rachel seems to be much more terryfying. She is probably the most insane there.

Zack reminds me of the character from Henry: The Serial Killer movie - Otis. Otis and his friend Henry killed a family and videotaped the whole thing. The evening after they were watching the whole thing togethe. Othis was really happy, joyful and even proud of his killing. On the other hand Henry was not even reacting. Just cold, bland stare. No emotion was even showed. And that was truly terryfing scene. Great movie anyway.

Talking about the episode, i was waiting for them to put some scenes they cut off last episode on this one.. the majority of those were added so i'm more satisfied with this one than the last to be honest.
Next episode is going to introduce the watchers to one of the most interesting yet intriguing character in the story, i can't wait !! Let's say he's the grandpa that has drugs just for his children, that's the best definition i can't think of without spoiling anything lmao
