Kind of a weird episode i felt the story they told in this episode was great but it kind of went nowhere and was a bit boring in the end. Still think its not as amazing as people say it is but it is a good anime.

7/10


Might be too deep for you although it's quite transparent.

I'm pretty sure they're pertaining to the grammar lol.

Anyway, nice episode. I'd gladly pay for Worrick XD I wonder if it's really Nicolas who killed Worick's father.

I lol'd when Worick said, "Open that filthy mouth of yours again in front of me, and I'll add another gaping hole between your thighs." XDDD Such a badass omg ♡

Sure its plot, but is there any other reason why a 22 year old cold case would appear on the front page of the newspaper?

So Worrick is a gigolo who rescued a girl he didnt know from prostitution. Interesting.

Well, Worick family seemed to be in a position of power. High-profile murders are remembered each year by the press, specially if they're gruesome like this one.

Maybe Twilights obtain their abilities at the cost of some kind of sickness and the medicines help relieve the pain or something.

Nice episode, gotta feel bad for Alex, she looks so utterly lost and without a purpose...

Lots of girls ( ͡͡ ° ͜ ʖ ͡ °) And good that there's no that piece of Ecchi of accidental boob grabs and etc. ( That one from this ep. wasn't accidental I think )

I'm Still a bit confused about Nic. He can answer question , although that guy didn't tell it by sign languague ( At least I didn't see it :/ )

And OST is great I will say one more time !! Greaaat EP

I'm definitely buying the manga. I'm in love with this anime, oh my god. I can't wait to see how it all pans out. I think Alex is going to go through a big change; if she decides to stay, maybe she'll get used to all the gore and even participate in killing? I mean she shot her abusive boyfriend's (?) dead body several times when she found him. She's shown herself to be capable of violence.

Even a younger Nicolas was deadly.
Extremely curious how those two ended up best friends after Nic murdered Worick's dad.



I like that Worrick's a gigolo, just cause that's not something I often see explored in anime.
But did he really start being one at 13? That's a little too young, bruh.



Interesting flashback. I may have figured out a few things from it.

Really glad they tackled Chapter 2, I knew they wouldn't have just passed over it, and also glad to see Ally with the Book.

The past is creeping up and I for one cannot wait, oh man, I am so excited to see it in anime form.


The book? What importance does it have? I mean, I noticed that she had a book, but I figured she was just using it to pass time...

I'm really curious about their pasts. Looking forward to more!


yeah, that book is realy important. They should show about it more >.> and showed more directly that Worick was sleaping with it.



NOOOOO! anime changed Woricks favorite smokes brand! It's Pall Mall!!!
that "Guild.. something" sounds so wrong T_T But atleast it sounds super cheep now xDDD

The best episode so far. It's much more character focused & no unsubstantial action. More of this, please.
This anime really has a great directing. Really impressive. This is a top tier directing. And of course the really good soundtrack.


MadLane said:
good character development i hope the manga is far enough for the anime to get a season 2

What character development? It seems some people are always mistaken characterization/backstory with character development.

Damn, that wife who was seeing Worick on the side was a fucking slut. Ay, you up for a threesome? - Woah where'd that come from bitch?

Apparently Nic was involved with that main mobster boss guy prior to becoming a handyman.

Nic was also with that dying girl, wonder what their relation is...

I would wine and say you should read the manga, mostly because people are like " I wonder what their past is like... and who that person is....i wanna know more about that...this story is going no where..."

Well if you read the manga that is out right now it would give some good explaining and keep you hooked onto the anime more.Also, watching Nic in the anime form gives me such a boner .

So we go a bit into who these two are. Worick's real job is having sex for money. This handyman stuff is his second job. Nicolas used to work for one of the mafias there before joining Worick as a handyman. And because of Nicolas, Worick can't walk the main streets for some reason.

Probably the other way around. Worick joined Nic as a handyman, before that he probably was working at that brothel, which is owned by one of the mafia families, so becoming a neutral mercenary probably required him to give it up.

Good episode.
The back story on Worick gets interesting, though we still know next to nothing about Nicolas. Prostitutes hate the tags, but Nicolas holds no grudges, I'm betting it has something to do with the fact that Big Mama was hosting the sick/dying girl. Cannot wait to find out what THAT story is all about.

I see they're mixing and matching the manga chapters into the episodes as they see fit. Not gonna complain much because the overall story is still coherent.

Cannot wait till the next episode.

Holy shit this episode was sooo good. I love this anime.
So Worrick also works as a gigolo, huh...he has the looks and stuff, but didn't expect him to do such work. We also get to know some backstory of Worrick and Nicolas, which was quite confusing. Does that mean that Nicolas was one of the men that killed Worrick's family given that it was actually him? And if yes, do both know that?
I loved the scene when Nicolas was in the sick girl's room. It was so beautiful.

Oh boy, they do love to tease us with little bits of flashbacks & backstory. And to make it better, we see & learn more about Worwick & Nic, and about how things work in Ergastulum in general through Alex - she's the eyes & ears of the audience.

This step-by-step exposition is also great, avoiding excessive info dumbs like certain other shows do...

Man, I'm really loving this anime. It's gritty but not obnoxious about it. And the two leads are very interesting, especially Nicoloas, I also like they took the extra step with his voice acting.

I'm so excited to learn about their backstories. This is such an elevated and better version of Black Lagoon.

Yeah i didn't get it at first either, but i think its just the engrish.

Surprisingly my favourite character is Alex, followed by Nic then Worick.

Their backstory has a lot of potential. I'm enjoying this series quite a lot so far.
