| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- That's a pretty high reward offered to deal with the mastermind of a terrorist. Looks like we got the main detectives all on the case so it's a pretty big deal. Pretty crazy shit that went down at the arena. This episode showed the seriousness of terrorist threats. |

| *surprised pikachu face* If Moriarty ends up being just another generic villain without any other motives except "fun", I'll be disappointed. I still want to know what happened during his time in prison. He was getting beaten up (and possibly raped or something idk) but then suddenly he controls everyone? How tf? |
| If you read Eleceed you're automatically my friend. |
| We all knew that Moriarty was behind but I want to know the reason why he is doing all this. |
 |
| The Moriarty reveal happened a lot sooner than I'd expected. Now, I want to know why he did what he did. Based on his expressions, it looks like there's more than him just wanting to entertain Sherlock. The twist at the end was actually good. I didn't think only one character would die. Moriarty looks a bit weird in a suit. He is designed with Shoujo manga proportions, but his body has realistic proportions when he's wearing his suit, making him look like a tiny head added on a big body. |
| Well I didn't expect it to all just come out like that. I want to know more of Jame's motivations. |
| I'd like to believe there's... "reason behind his madness", as one would say. But at this point, I'm [Í]this[/i] close to just dropping the series, and I rarely do that, especially this close to the end. nanimeanswhat said: If Moriarty ends up being just another generic villain without any other motives except "fun", I'll be disappointed. I still want to know what happened during his time in prison. This here. This whole 180 of his literally makes no sense, and it's maddening. We got glimpses of him suffering in prison, and then suddenly skipped almost a year and now he's this criminal mastermind - for fun? Just no. We need to see what happened, how it happened, why it happened.... and right now I'm not even sure we will, and that'd be this series getting flushed down the toilet. |
| Even everything with his sister plays into it as well. Something real bad must have happened in prison. I can't imagine him just doing this stuff for Fun. I hope the post credits with Lucy looking for Mary are not something bad. This ending got me worried for next week. |

| What a stinking piece of shit of a preface to the climax for this arc. So the author is so stupid and arrogant to think that the audience is going to fall for such a childish set up of a genius teenager that is able to deliver each and every lunch box taking notes on the marked boxes with the "duds" on a stadium that probably holds 50K to 100K viewers, and has also enough time to write up witty riddles to sent multiple times to Sherlock's crew? And worst of all, just like the other detective crap show of the season, he's got special powers to "hypnotize" and make regular people his own suicide pawns to send a message for Sherlock to decipher exactly in the climax of his demise, not before or after. What a waste of effort for the animation staff this series has been |
| Yeah, Moriarty reveal happened sooner than I thought. I am still confident there is more to his motivations tho. Also that post credit looks like trouble for sisters. I assume Watson might play a large role there which might potentially progress his relationship with Mary, if that's at all supposed to go anywhere that is. |

What a waste of effort for the animation staff this series has been I know people like you find this really hard to understand, but, you can just stop watching it. That aside, who voices Albert Trevor? This voice isn't gravelly enough to be Norio Wakamoto. A bit too deep for Akio Ootsuka. |
| To help his dad progress through the elections, Moriarty takes on more effort, but the public knows it well within the crease of the crux of the root problem: the connections of Mayor Moran and Jack the Ripper (which for it's worth, speculating that Moriarty is the one). Once again, another prison escapee with the intention to murder Moriarty's dad on top of unsuspecting audience within a party. And with a hefty sum of prize money, the chase is on with the Pipecat Bar detectives all mobilized to their own devices with Sherlock's help to disguise out the bomb within lots of duds. For Sherlock to realize that Moriarty is behind all this, it has probably come one message TOO LATE within few episodes, even as novel readers of Sherlock and the OP actually foreshadowing it all. All those shouting and all, it's all part of his nefarious plans. Don't need to re-emphasize this, but +1 in cahoots with everyone thinking that Moriarty did an 180 "just for fun", which is NOT even a decent way to go around playing at the ideas of novels written of the great detective. His idea of simple manipulation isn't as justifiable, even if explained proper. What truly happened in his time in prison, hope this will shine a light and get explained soon. |

This pretty much sums up my thoughts. I'm beginning to like him less and less. Also, I wonder if Moriarity is going to use Mary hostage or something. |
| 臭い- |
| @1MnC Nah dude. In the books moriarty is Sherlock biggest enemy. He isn't a chapter's antagonist, he is Sherlock's archenemy |
| I had quite some fun with this episode. I liked how the moriarty reveal was handled, even tho I read the books. |
| Moriarty is, as expected, behind these last few cases, and it turns out he is indeed twisted. But he isn't "controlling" people, "just" taking advantage of their "desires" and making them kill themselves in the end for his own amusement, and maybe something else. And Sherlock realized it, but he continued to "play these games" while showing no wish to stop Moriarty, and going as far as agreeing to kiss his shoes so he would stop a bomb from exploding. Let's hope that kick to his face works as a wake-up call. I don't know, but I guess it's safe to say that Watson will prevent Sherlock from truly losing himself. |
 |
| There's still too much they haven't explained yet from the first half, namely why Sebastian wanted James dead in the first place. I feel like what James is doing is less directed at Sherlock and more at his father; maybe he did see what was on that flash drive and we're watching an elaborate revenge plot. |

However, in adaptations, he has often been given a greater prominence and treated as Sherlock Holmes' archenemy." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professor_Moriarty @1MnC Interesting, I would never assume that Moriarty was episodic villain in books knowing that in adaptations he is basically like Joker for Batman. |

I've always felt like moriarty is like the joker for sherlock. I think that even Sherlock said that he is his greatest enemy. If he didn't say that, I'm sure he said that he is the mastermind behind huge scandals and some shit. I'm not sure how he worded it, but he basically said moriarty is like sherlock exept he's a villan. |
| This was ridiculous. All those lunch boxes had hamsters or some sort of pranks and not a single one of them was opened before the detectives found them. Just wow. |

ScotlandTheWhat said: That aside, who voices Albert Trevor? This voice isn't gravelly enough to be Norio Wakamoto. A bit too deep for Akio Ootsuka. Pretty sure it's Houchuu Ootsuka. |
| Moriarty you messed up bastard! He really has too much time on his hand for preparing all those boxes just to play this 'game' against Holmes. I really want to know the reason why he turned into a criminal mastermind |
 |
| Moriarty is crazy. A shame that his sister died for him. |
