it's ironic that now he'll have a robotic arm just like pops

This episode was actually really good =o, so sad that Masaoka had to die, I thought he would just capture Makishima for awhile too LOL. I guess that would remove the need for a final episode though. It's good to see Ginoza finally show some emotion, very clever. Excited to see the final battle, and also I sort of want to see Akane use her modified Dominator on Makishima O_o, that should be interesting.

first half of this episode was pretty boring but then it went more interesting.

Looking forward to the last episode so this meh anime is finally over.

Masaoka's death was predictable, but still shocking

I think that no one will die next ...

Well, I'm very excited and hopeful with the upcoming (and the last) episode

Ugh, my predictions from the last episode pretty much came true (yay for splitting up). Disappointing and contrived (the only reason Makishima's whole ploy happened to work was because Ginoza happened to become stuck in a place that happened to be withing throwing distance of his fight with his dad which happened to give him enough room to light the explosive and throw it? Give me a break). And before someone brings up the fact that it's a planned trap. Sure, but how does that guarantee him getting stuck and the following? Hell, his dad even saw the trap before it went off.

Damn, Gino might end up having a robotic arm afterall. I'm not too upset about Masaoka's death, I neither liked nor disliked him as an Enforcer. What was on my mind the most was how Akane's changed during these past couple episodes. She really has a fierce look of determination in her eyes. Can't believe it's the finale already.

Yeah Makishima needs to be killed by Ko. Pops dying was very sad as I liked his character. The last episode is probably going to be awesome, hopefully there is a good hand to hand fight.

Just keeps on getting better and better. I have a feeling Akane is gonna end up with Ko's gun and in a similar position as she was with Makishima in their first meeting.

Ever since I saw that hair-cut knife, I've thought that it will once again on the throat of either Akane or Kougami. I wonder what Makishima will choose, continuing to toy with Akane on her sense of justice or tormenting Kougami on how wrong the current system is? I think the latter is more probable, seeing that Kougami would not be a worthy opponent of Makishima if he loses to the dude twice. Looking at the OP, Kougami did pull the trigger. I'm imaging a scenario where Makishima holds Akane hostage with the knife, Gino hits Makishima from behind (again!), Kougami pulls the trigger and BAM! head-shot. Bye-bye douchebaggery douche, you can happily die as one. What's next? The Chief arrived with her chariots. Sibyl enrages at losing Makishima, Akane volunteers her brain to save Kougami.... hm, and maybe the wheat virus will still be released somehow.

But enough of that, it's my speculation after all. The episode as a whole is really moving. I was at the edge of my seat couple times. Masaoka;s death was done justice. R.I.P pops. Gino finally snapped, he recognized that aging up-standing man as his dad!!

Akane is loved. I believe her since the beginning, and glad that I was right. It's endearing to see such strong determined female lead in that supposedly slender body. Her Seiyu did a good job of portraying an innocent, yet resolute character

If he was going to sacrifice himself for his son, the smartest thing would have been to roll on top on Makishima before he threw the bomb and thus prevent him from moving his arm, resulting in both their deaths. Not that I wanted him to die, mind you, but if was going to end up dead anyway, at least that way he could have both saven Ginoza and dealt with Makishima. But I guess people don't think very clearly in situations like that. Besides, if Makishima died then, the anime would have ended...
Don't you think "Oh, not again" when you hear an anime start with cicadas?

This was expected ever since I found out Urobutcher was writing this...still hits a little too close to home though; I cried manly tears.

Awesome episode. So sad to see Masaoka die, he was a very good character.

Too bad I don't see this anime having them destroy the Sibyl system by the end of it. So I'd hope for either another season or the ending wont be fully satisfying.

I almost cried when Masaoka died ;_; he protected his son and I guess that is the most important for him since his son didn't like his father that much.

I really like the OST in this anime

i expected this anime to have tragic events but still deaths hit hard in it , that's how a death should be shown it should feel relevant and poignant and that only happen when you actually care about characters

Geezus, Akane in one episode became a helluva lot more confident and can think on the same wavelength as Shogo can.

Omg, Yayoi actually spoke for almost a minute straight! A record!

Dayummm, Shogo took quite a risk there. Counting on Masaoka to jump to Gino. His arm looks to be in pretty bad shape though, like he'll get a prosthetic on the same arm as his dad.

Well...everyone saw that happening, but it was still damn sad...

Lol, a knife fight. Not quite what I was thinking their final showdown to be.

I am waiting for the flush of posts blaming Gino for not pulling himself out of the debris earlier (which he did only too late later) but just shouting at Masaoka to hold on to Makishima.

It's all about adrenaline, really. He can't be blamed for it, he's not Kinji or someone.


Venuduck said:
Yayoi won't die, it would have no emotional impact whatsoever.

Exactly, even though they tried to introduce her(somewhat successfully) with her own episode).


But if you think of it even if Gino has died instead, it'd be still as tragic, actually I think it'd be more tragic.


But anyway, this was a very powerful episode and also a very favorite of mine.

Even though I love this episode, I am sorry to see my favorite character bite the dust. I have to say, his death was an honorable one. If Gino survives, his dad could not have left a greater lesson to his son.

Looking forward to the final episode and the battle between Kogami and Makishima. No interruptions, please.

My tears still haven't dried.

Masaoka was, hands down, the best character for me. Somewhere in our subconsciousness, I think we all knew his time was limited. At least that father-son bond was proven to have existed.
The episode was a very powerful one and as much as I want Makishima dead, I just can't help but wonder at what an amazing character he is.
