Gainer's reaction to hearing about his parent's death was more subdued and mature than I thought. I don't really like the Ninja character and wouldn't have minded if Gainer had put him in his place a couple of times.

'Haha you killed my buddies' parents? Here's a punch.'

What exactly did that ninja fuck do to get Adette all wet? It's like this anime wants me to hate every single character. I'm only watching for the 'villains' at this point.

Kashmir has become one of my favorite characters. I also love these Overmen that just mess with people's minds. Its a great storytelling device.

Weird episode, both the animation and dialogue seemed a bit off compared to the rest (and well, episode 17 was very good in contrast).

The reveal and the consequences of what happened to Gainer's parents are definitely disappointing, though.

I don't hate the characters but I also found myself confused at most of the developments here. Very strange episode in a show I've mostly been enjoying up until this point.
