| This show is so strangely creative in so many little ways, it's incredible. As is everything about Vueko, who is like the cutest person ever. |
| My God, this show man. I am not ready for what kind of fuck up shit they're gonna throw at us in the coming episodes. So that Mitty is a copy huh, just let her rest please, damn it Bondrewd. Really interesting, Reg is definitely made based on those interference units or made out of them probably. I wonder if Riko's really gonna end up selling something, though I don't really see any other way to bring back Nanachi, unless Vueko interferes, but based on what she said, that's probably just gonna make it worse lmao. Man, I can't wait to find out the origins of Iruburu and why Vueko was imprisoned, though I say I am excited, I am not excited for pain. |

timeforward said: "Please don't hurt my friend anymore" as a binding contract? As an expert in reality television court law, this is clearly an invalid contract. Riko needs to find the hollow that wished to be a lawyer, he'd be a particularly slimey one. the village insta knows the intention behind what people say |
| I ended up being wrong, I thought that was a chunk of Mitty that was cut before she lost her eye and ended up regenerating to a full body after being thrown away. |
| This anime makes me feel nauseous. Which is bad. But at the same time it leaves a lasting impact that cannot be forgotten. And that makes it good. The emotions and the human relations look so realistic, distorted and dirty&clean at the same time that I cannot take my eyes away. It's so disgusting that it leaves me in shock and in worst case I'll have nightmares of drooling distorted figures wanting to eat me. |
 |
| Ah yes I remember when this chapter was released. Of course it ended on that cliffhanger as well. Was quite the interesting debate at the time. I think next episode we should be getting back into the flashback portion which was definitely my favourite part of this arc so I'm pretty excited for that. |
| oh man! Riko's dumb if she agrees to that! body parts?!? oh damn! gore! 5/5. |
 |
| I find it curious that Belaf wanted the eyes, legs or the innards, but not the arms. Perhaps it's because her arm got screwed up because of the infection in S1 and has less intrinsic value? I could honestly see this show going with her losing her eyes to save Nanachi. Bondrewd manages to screw over Nanachi's emotions and life even when he's not physically present. |
| Decent episode, I already knew about Bondrewd going into the 6th layer, it makes you wonder if all was just a test in the movie. Riko is still being stupid and useless and I bet she isnt going to lose any body part in the next episode, eventually the deal will be bringing Vueko for Nanachi. Also Vueko is most likely the 3rd Sage, anyways 7/10 episode and the season should be around a 6.8/10. PD: Very low score coming next chapter if Riko doesnt lose any body part. |

In the other hand, Ozen aready aging from riko baby until now It was mentioned in season 1 that time flows differently in the abyss. The deeper you go the worse it gets. Just an example a day in layer 6 could be months on the surface (think of that interstellar scene with the water planet). It may even be that Lyza has been at the bottom for mere days or weeks. |

nexuro01 said: Pretty chill episode considering the fact that the only fucked up thing was Maaaaa's circumcised dick-hand. ye, but only if you use fucked up as synonym for sexual for me, I think belaf giving away so many of his organs just to eat meaty was quite fucked up |

Thanks for the explanation. I had forgotten that detail and was a bit confused about the timeline here. |

| Another interesting episode ^.^ I was wondering the whole time how Mitty could be there when Reg incinerated her to dust in 4th Layer before, turned out 6th Layer Mitty is just a clone.

| Glad I could help. I recently rewatched season one with my sister and remembered so many things that I forgot over the years. That's all I can recall from the top of my head. Feel free to budge in and correct me as it has been a few months. |

Honestly that's not a bad theory. I don't think we've got a clear explanation as to what happens to the parts of mitty's body that are cut? We know Mitty regenerates but the cut part?? Maybe it dissolves into dust or something, who knows? It also raises the interesting question: what if you cut Mitty in 2 equal parts? Which one regenerates, if not both?? Interesting stuff to think about. Needless to say, although it's a good theory it's invalid now since we now know it's a perfect copy of the original. |

And since this is Bondrewd we're talking about I'm pretty sure he's already tried that. So yeah theory debunked. |
Palme-Tree said: xZabuzax said: It was an ok episode, this is the best episode so far in this season but that isn't saying much, I didn't enjoy the rest of the other episodes that much either but this one was ok I guess. One thing I really don't like is how they speak Japanese but insert their weird language in the middle of it as well, it's happening in all the episodes and this is getting quite cringey with that stuff, maybe their language will play a major role later on? I hope that's the case because so far their language is making me cringe and enjoy the show even less, that language is just "adding" to the weird acid trip I'm watching here. If that language actually plays a major role later on then that's ok but if not, then it was a waste, the author or director or whatever could have implemented a better dialogue between the characters that doesn't involve that weird language which as far as I can see, is not helping the plot so I really hope that language plays a major role later on. So far this is a meh season but of course, MAL being MAL has this at 8.75, I simply can't trust the ratings here, for the most part, they are BS IMHO. ....this was unequivocally the worst episode of the season thus far, and was one of the worst chapters of the manga as well. Literally nothing weighty occurs. There's the Vueko reveal, and Belafu's spectacular character design, and I guess the Interference Unit making that comment about Reg (which was pure speculation anyways), but besides that, it was a total filler episode/a typical bridge episode, necessary to connect point A to point B. Implying that this was "the best" episode of what has been one of the greatest series of any anime ever is borderline trolling lmao. "A filler/bridge episode where almost nothing of note happens is the best one yet!" *facepalm* You don't know what filler means |
| Finally a somewhat interesting episode. This season has been nothing but a complete bore with sex fetish moments sprinkled in otherwise. Getting tired of them reusing the same schtick, following up the stuff with Mitty in S1 with Prushka just made it hit like a bag a of wet feathers, and now they're bringing Mitty back again. Man this is just lazy, whole thing means nothing now. |

Man this is just lazy, whole thing means nothing now. ....is this, like, an inside joke on this website or something...? The idea that this bridge/filler episode was "interesting"..? Aside from the Vueko reveal/her being freed, this episode was a complete non-entity. 'Interesting' would be the absolute least apt adjective that could be used to describe it, lmao. Almost nothing that hadn't been shown previously was revealed, there was zero worldbuilding, etc.... it was literally a "point A-to-point B' bridge episode. It is general consensus throughout the community that this has been one of the most lacklustre episodes of the entire series & easily the most lacklustre thus far this season. There's been next to zero world building this entire season past the first episode lol, I guess this one lacked literal feces which must be the average MIA "community" member's idea of "world building". |

| Just 2 quick questions from an anime-only to make some things clear: - Maa has been torn to shreds a couple of episodes ago. How come she's still alive? - All inhabitants or hollows in Iburu, were actually living humans right? Just like Riko. Thanks! |

Thanks! first we dunno, but notice that removed parts look different so might be some regeneration ability second, yes. they are ganjas and cave riders who eventually joined them over time. |
| So what, did Bondrewd send down a team (well, multiple teams) knowing full well they wouldn't be able to come back, except for him transferring his consciousness to another body back in the 5th layer? Not that I expect him to have any degree of compassion for his subordinates, but I'm just curious if that's how it went down. |
 |
| The price to pay for Nanachi just feels insanely high, I doubt Riko will do that and instead will look for another solution, but overall great episode and presentation troughout it |
KuroNekoAlchemy said: KelpRings said: Dude this show feels like it’s designed just to mess with my head. They introduce new bizarre things, explain as little as possible, then leave me on a cliffhanger. It’s actually quite frustrating. But hey, at least things are starting to come together. It’s making slightly more sense, and getting more interesting. Though, I’m just waiting for them to pack up then head to the next layer. I don’t see any reason for them to stall so much here. But now they’re all separated and selling their souls or whatever. They’ve spent way too much time here. Should’ve just kept walking. should get the whistle and run, they made a mistake when they separated, but it's nanachi's fault. nanachi suggested it while riko was having a shit, and didn't even tell her anything Right? Rule number one, never split the party! |
| I will trade in nothing for your Mitty copy! I hope Riko agrees to nothing |

| This episode had me so distressed/curious at the end tbh I wonder how Vueko still has her human form and why has she only aged up so little after all this time? Why was she imprisoned? Is Nanachi even alive and what is Riko going to bargain to save her?? Is Reg going to recover his memories and get his arm fixed? and will he still want to help out Riko on her expedition after? |
 |
| What's up with this Mitty? Is she a clone? Does she still feels? |
| I want to know more about those interference units. Whats their purpose? Who created them? I hope we will get answers. |
| If Riko makes a deal then she's an idiot. She has to think things through Reg and then just find some cool shit to make a deal. |
| As if this village wasn't bad enough, it also just has a hole that is filled with depression, lmao. This is truly the worst village. It's a bit jarring to see Vuelo tower over Riko when they both appear to be children. I somewhat doubt Riko will offer any significant portion of her body. As always, I'm sure she'll manage to find some other way. Either way, this was a good episode. |
