This was Noel's time to shine. I know he has a sort of pride but challenging to a duel is a way to prove himself.

Meh, this went kinda how I expected. I'm not even on Noel's side for this since his character personality has been questionable.

Finocchio really plays the deadliest "prank" and his last one for this episode is the cruelest, can't imagine what happened to his other victim...

Despite how edgy Noel can be, he's really straightforward and pragmatic when it comes to business, and I've come to appreciate him as a MC even more as more episodes gets released. He can easily sold his former mates to slavery when they betrayed him, but also easily gives Koga freedom and accept him as mates because he sees potential and genuineness in him.

Also this scene is honestly really cute lol

I can immediately tell that Finocchio just want to add Noel into his harem, but Noel is not gonna be anyone's sextoy.

I'm glad this arc end because, while it's nice and it introduce Kouga, we only have 12 episodes and with just 4 episodes left I don't think anything big will happen.

Intense confrontation between the two. Guess Noel will have to fight the family someday but for now it's finally time to open that clan.

It’s encouraging to see Noel's plan slowly coming to fruition. He finally managed to put that psychotic drug dealer in his place and successfully got Finocchio off his back, at least for now. On a positive note, he was able to free Koga, who truly deserved it after enduring a life of slavery at the hands of his abusive father. Things are looking up for their party, as they are on the path to establishing a clan. Let’s hope their good fortune continues, especially after they had a strong start with their first official request.

Being sold into slavery might sound like an overreaction, but those idiots deserved it. They not only stole the party funds and ran away but those funds weren't used for a worthwhile purpose. The former party leader was a gambling addict; that’s why they ran. They knew what they had done was wrong. They are fortunate that Noel allowed them to survive. He sold them to recover the party’s funds and ensure they at least break even. While he may appear heartless, he found the best solution to their problem. He possesses both intelligence and the strength to see his plans through.

Koga v Noel went about as I expected. Knew he’d end up forming part of the new clan with Alma and Noel so no shock there, but holy shit Finocchio taking out Noel’s heart gave me so much anxiety. I don’t think he was joking about killing Noel, but once he seen Noel’s snake ability and felt his aura he backed off lol

Mob boss got exactly what he deserved. He’ll have plenty of time to reflect on his actions as he’s playing with the pigs lol.

With this lil pit stop over it now feels like the story is gonna actually get going with the new clan. Shame we only get like 4 eps of that.

I didn't really like Original Big Sis exercising their abilities here, but I did like New Big Sis being cooperative.
The 3 of them make a good family. I was originally concerned, since was obvious he would pick Koga, and Alma would kill him so only option is Noel. He truly is a master and though he might not have advantages in 1v1s out of nowhere, with intelligence and/or prep time he is god-tier even solo. His class isn't even part of the fight, that's 100% him. If he had front-line class he would be automatically classified as God, but instead needs to be King of his Army.

4/5, hope to never see that degenerate of the highest power again. Want to see this clan sleep in same bed.

@Vandesdelca Yeah, they make it seem like person might actually get a buff. I wonder if A-Rank will let him control whole countries if Original Big Sis can remove hearts.

@Marinate1016 Yep. Having his hands & feet cut off seems about right. Also, tossed to the pigs, who will definitely eat him in that state. Should have tried to be a man at least.

Noel was mazing in that fight, he had everything worked out from the start.
Finocchio has a scary skills, Noel's skill is that he can strike fear into anyone.
There are going to be some fun and entertaining scenes with Alma & Koga from now on.
I'm looking forward to seeing Noel rank up and start a clan and see who he recruits next.

The fight between Koga and Noel was incredibly interesting, well-planned, and executed with precision. Albert Gambino met his fitting end—becoming pig food for Finocchio’s sows.

Finocchio taking out Noel’s heart with his skills was completely unexpected. Despite this, Noel stood his ground and even made Finocchio tremble from fear. The shift in Finocchio’s voice from cute to serious was chilling and brilliantly executed.

Alma and Koga’s scuffle during their first quest was so cute and endearing. This show has truly grown on me. Excited for more.

Ok, this show is kind of "bad", but also in a very entertaining way (and Alma is a fun character too). Like at the start I didn't expect the world-building to then go into Italian mafia families running different cities or something 😂

It feels a bit passé doing more of the "gay guy who is also a sadist" sort of stuff, but at least they haven't shown anything too gratuitous yet either though.

While I'm glad that the Gambino "arc" is over I feel like there isn't much time left before the show is over and just as it's getting better. Regardless I'm curious to see what this show does with the remaining episodes as Noel is starting up a new clan and these clanmates look to be much better and stronger than his original ones.

I really liked this episode, but it felt a bit too fast-paced for me. Perhaps it's bc time flies when you're having fun, lol. I'm glad that Koga is free and is now in Blue Beyond's party! This group is definitely a big upgrade compared to Noel's previous party. I think the old party might have held Noel back, now that I'm thinking about it.

Love that they keep trying to make us believe he is supposed to be the weakest skill wise and how hardwork can't compensate the gap, but his plotarmor arm can single-handedly stop the longsword from slashing right through.
Wish they'd showed us throughout the episodes that, while he is weak, he can use his brains to overcome things, kinda like the ol' "playing chess with other playing checkers" kinda thing. Instead, he can just overpower anyone and everyone seems to just obey him in the weirdest of circumstances, even when having the upper hand.

At this point gonna keep sucking it up to finish the season since it is only 4 episodes away, but it has been quite disappointing.

A witness fight for Albert vs. Noel, and of course he chooses Koga to represent him because of the oath of subordination,

The 3rd rematch of Noel and Koga's face-off, and it's an even fiercer fight to the death as the former proves that even as a Talker, with adequate skills and cheats, he's able to make it work without a slight hint of stoppage time. And his attacks were fierce enough for Alma to begrudge him because of his excessive power, and also lay Chelsea to rest from the cruel murder.

But for Finocchio to immediately strike out with waging Noel for his heart since he doesn't want to lead the Gambino family and become part of the Luciano family, Noel needlessly waging his own life to die, certainly puts expectations on Finocchio that no one can ever control him. With the new arrangement of Koga finally given freedom as a free man, he naturally joins Blue Beyond, and the skills that were cut out for Alma, were applied to Koga as well, so strong in fact that they're able to start a clan.

The Gambino family fiasco is done, now it's time for Blue Beyond to actually go beyond.

Noel faces off with Koga and wins the duel. We see how powerful Finocchio Barzini can be when he seizes Noel's heart. Noel gets Koga as his prize as well. He lets Koga free and Koga wants to be there to see Noel gets his dream comes true.

Yay the Gambino arc is finally over and it was a fitting end if I’m being honest here tbh I liked how Finnochio turned that piece of shit into a breeding device for his piggies a fitting end for a sadist psychopathic ass piece of scum this is justice for Chelsea and like Noel said hope she’s resting in peace now #RIPChelsea🥹

Finnochio is such a troll but when bro went from his usual “roswaal” voice and into his serious “Dio” voice gave me chills ngl man, that dude is a dangerous smart individual that’s all ik and I hope Noel is weary of it

It was refreshing to see Noel fight with his crew again I deadass realized we haven’t seen a coordinated team fight since ep 1 LMAO like I didn’t hate this arc at all it was entertaining but this whole Gambino arc felt so shoehorned in and random bc not a single time did anyone talk about The Abyss and shit so it felt like a different show compared to the first episode but glad we back on track I wonder what’s gonna happen next now?

Noel defeated the mob boss and took in Koga as spoils of war, the skave trader had a run in with Noel to take him over but he refused right away. This episode was cool and the stage is currently set with Noel forming a stated recognized Clan instead of a party
