| bro's before hoe's but gotta console the hoe later thou cause we gentlemn BRK25 said: More so how they don't do a direct backstory, you only get hints here and there, akin to Samurai Champloo and Cowboy Bebop no backstory is just sloppy writing. hope it doesn't devolve into those kind of series. |

| That's one horrible life this city is living. Worick and Nic relationship started since they were 13!! And looks like it started in a bloody way. I have too little patient to wait for the story of their relationship and I am holding myself so hard from reading the manga. From the tips given here and there it appears that Nic killed Worick's family! It would be interesting if this was the actual case. Also, I wonder what do these tattoos stand for. |
| My Anime List | |
| Was expecting Worick to be a bit more slick and better at controlling his composure like he would come up with some smart and sarcastic respond when his client asked him to bring Nicolas to have a threesome or when the hooker started badmouthing his friend, especially it seems like he is taking care of Nicolas his characters should have a more obvious contrast with Nicolas's uncontrollable and violent personalities, right now every characters are just typical, a few clever shot here and there, but doesn't feel like anything special because whatever it's done well in presentation, it's offset by other poor decisions like the inclusion of a naive little girl character and the execution of both fight scene having Nicolas dominating both and be one-sided, and the lack of a plot just made it really underwhelming, and if it eventually has one I might have to worry that every bad guy would just be beaten up by Nicolas with no tension or drama whatsoever. |

| So because of these flash q appeared in that episode I was anxious to know their past. |
| Worick as a gigolo? lol |
| Think Worwick is a tad insensitive that until recently Alex had been forced to have sex for money. The gigolo thing was a bit surprising. I don't know why but I keep comparing Nic to Luco Brasi from The Godfather. I'm enjoying so far but the story hasn't pulled me in yet. |
| Such junk... |
| This was probably my favorite episode so far. I enjoyed the character interactions. And Alex Benedetto's character design is growing on me. I like it even more now for some reason. I'm digging her Middle-Eastern vibe. It would be nice if her personality develops into something less stereotypical. |
| That was some sloppy writing. Worick's past on the first page of the newspaper, really? That was too convenient to be believable. So far the only interesting thing about this anime is a deaf MC, and even he is a chosen, oriental guy (Ackerman?) fighting with katana when other, more reasonable people use guns. |
| ...more background on Nicolas and Worick the introduction part will soon be over |
| Slow paced episode, still good though. |
| Wasn't terribly impressed with the first two eps but this was a step up imo. The flashbacks were well done while at the same time leaving us wanting more answers. Nice immersion into their daily lives and characters. |
| Wish they delved more into their past. Also, am I the only one who thinks that some of the artwork/animation was really sloppy in this episode? Maybe it's the same in the previous eps but a lot of the scenes looked like something straight out of a terrible hentai game from Newgrounds. Vooo said: tomi02 said: 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. Lol wtf is this |
| Good character development so a really good episode. The pacing was pretty cool |
| my god i love this anime so much |
 |
| Getting interesting. I really need a sufficient flashback |
| Gets better with each episode, and so does the OP. |
  |
| Well well, guess we know how Worick got involved in this mess and how he lost his eye. |
 |
| It's not bad, but I'm still not too impressed of the show. |
| This episode was good. Really like how they're building up the characters. Also, that ending scene had a really good soundtrack & presentation. |
::End of Transmission:: What have I been watching? Click here and find out on my viewing blog, "Vigorous Viewing" |
| Seems those guys have some "history". |
  |
| OMG, Worick it's a gigolo!!! And he was a rich boy in the past! Alex is really trying to get closer to the boys. |
 |
| Oh man what can I say ... I've missed watching this show :') Great info episode ... so it seems like they met when they were pretty young huh? Now it's been 20 years ... Worick's family was killed and then he met Nick ... not to mention he works as a gigolo. Well, I'm not terribly surprised :P Big Mama sure is interesting lol, and everyone's warning Alex. Nick was asked to join a gang (or re-join) it seems? :O Also what's with all those pills? That girl that Nick was seeing in the room who doesn't have much longer? Hmm ... well, all I can say is ... dang, get me more of that backstory please!!! D: |
| The plot feels weak imo... yeah. I hope it gets better soon. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| Good episode! learning more about the characters |
 |
| Great episode, top 3 series this season :D |
 |
| Episode 3 is boring. We now know that Worick is a gigolo. And Nicolas close with a very sick whore? maybe someone special to him? Alex is all confused to this kind of world she's in. kid Nicolas is the one who killed the family members of worick??? 4/5. |
 |
| This some real ***** shit. Enjoying this. |
| -Nothing can stay unchanged. Even so, can you still keep on loving this place? -Be still my soul; when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. |
| so much T&A So... I get that Worick is the kid who was kidnapped and had his family killed, and I get that Nicolas was involved, but was Nicolas the one who did it? Or was there even enough information to come to a reasonable conclusion in this area? |

| Everything felt scrambled with bits of pieces trying to come together. Overall it was good. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| The episode makes the story even more interesting, but the narrative whispers things half-heartedly, leaving many questions, ironically, instead of to understand more like I had in head more confused now. Characters who become increasingly faceted in their psychology, who knows how it will end at the end of the three protagonists, are curious. Bad design and fascinating, I like everything, but should be improved by the scenery of the place, to give more involvement in the viewer and a logical thread to the events easier to follow. |
 |
| Quite interesting character development! Let's see what's next. |
 |
| at first i was kind like... gosh this is a little boring! But then I thought the change in pace was needed, and we got a lot of connections and back stories, I think if it had been 12 episodes of just bloodshed and fights I would have complained that there wasn't any character development xD So I did appreciate this episode in the end! |
| Worick is such a cockblocker xD |
 |
| Worick is a gigolo. lol Lady really asked for a 3some. She wants to get double stuffed. Ass and titties. And big booty bitches. DAT PAST THO! |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| Great episode. I wanna know why they can't use the main streets. Something about Nico not being welcome there or something?? |
 |
on 
| Pretty chill episode overall. We get to know a bit more about their daily work from Alex's perspective. |
| Really liked the character developement in this episode. We got to see what Woricks real job is and damn that was a surprise. I guess in this city you don't have a "normal" job haha. That woman Worick had his time with was pretty hot. Also the glimps from the past was very interesting. I hope they will show and explain it more detailed in the next couple episodes. Was funny how Worick first threatened the prostitute and afterwards wanted to apologize. I wonder about the woman Nic was in the room with. A lot of questions, let's see how this will go on. |

| So Worick is a gigolo huh? And he seems to be a popular one. Nic was involved in his family's killing huh. I'm still confused at the twilight stuff |

| More and more revelation is revealed, the audience is only shown the tip of the iceberg to these two main characters who have a deep history surrounding their upbringing. Seems like tags are elite trained individuals who have all been 'enhanced' through the use of drugs. It's a wonder how Nicholas, being the top dog amongst the tags could continue on for so long without any sort of terminal illness. And it also seems like Nicholas was the murderer of Worrick's family. |
