| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- A basement prison... Tbh, this was the most serious episode yet. Literally trapped like a bird in a cage while Juugo listens to Musashi's background story about how he became the person he is today. Compared to some of the other episodes, I find it the shift of mood change a bit odd but acceptable I guess. Poor Juugo though, RIP freedom. |
 |
| Wow, intense and serious episode. I like the swift (from comedy to a more drama-like anime) though. Now I feel sorry for Musashi haha. Since nanbaka is getting a second season, I hope they don't rush things. It would be such a waste. |
 |
| This is really turning to a serious anime. I like it. Jyugo finding his ressolve, good to see. I like how he was grey the whole time throughout this episode and turned to color again at the end. Hajime is a good man. |
| well a serious episode... I hope the prisoners start to torture Hajime Again |
 |
| well... we are done with the serious bit, scar-dude's henchmen is the random yellow haired prison stalker confirmed. glad he understood that other than his objective, he does love his friends. fire dude is pretty vapid though, he could of, i don't know, worked with juugo? well now he can't use his powers like he originally wanted so... good for him? wooo, last flash back was annoying, but because it got so serious, this one is well welcomed <3 |
  |
| An ok episode. Can't say I really got into it, though. |
  |
| I really liked this episode! It's good to have a bit of a serious episode with comedy.. I dunno who was that blonde guy listening to them *suspicious* |
| Boy did this get deep. #634 also had an encounter with the scar guy. The scar guy used #634 as a lab rat for his flamethrower power and then discarded him after he achieved whatever he wanted to. So #634 wants those shackles and the blade power which comes with it so that he can kill the scar guy since that guy also supposedly has the blade power. I didn't really get most of that rambling. The summary of all that was that Jyugo doesn't have any desires and the shackles gave him an objective but he wasn't interested in achieving that objective because it will then end with him not having anything again. But even after Hajime has this revealed, Jyugo stands and says that he'll make the scar guy pay. Wasn't it just determined that Jyugo isn't actually interested in finding the scar guy? I think I'm lost. Anyway, it looks like we'll be returning to the comedy next week as we'll be seeing what happened while Hajime was suspended. |
| Damn, this was the most serious episode. Juugo spilled his guts and got an epiphany. |
 |
| I can say I appreciate the variety this show provides. It tries to be different each episode, yet the tone shifts don't really feel "jarring" per say. Of course, I wish there could be another mainly comedic episode again, though from what I heard about the source material past this point I shouldn't really expect that. |
| Really intense and serious episode, it looks like next one though will be more comedic again though. |
|
| Well Musashi surely look like a "pretty boy" when he was young. So it's time for Hajime to give some words of advice to Jyuugo. Advice of become human being by having this one of seven sins, which is "greed". |

| Really serious episode. |
 |
| Masterpiece. ........................... |
 |
| Quite the verbose and intense episode we got here, Pretty decent episode overall. A small bit of the past between the scar guy and Jyugo revealed. We also get the story of how the scar-guy turned fire dude into who he was. For some reason I couldn't really feel all that sympathetic towards the fire dude, I guess his backstory was rushed through a bit so I couldn't really feel much for him. Most of the episode dealt with Hajime questioning Jyugo's resolve and motives. He specifically calls Jyugo as a person without greed, which is also the part that I also find a bit contradicting. True that Jyugo specifically states that he hasn't really wanted anything, but he also says that everything he has done upto this point was purely out of self interest. Can't this in itself be considered a form of greed? Technically it means you are greedy for actions that only benefit you. I find this to be slightly contradictory or am I mistaken here? I did like the fact that Jyugo finally found his resolve to be with his friends. :) Show has gotten quite serious lately, wonder if it'll continue along this route or go back to the goofiness of the early episodes. |
 |
| Hmm it was good and boring episode at same time. What happened with Musashi was bad, yeah. The blonde guy was listening to their conversation. |
 |
| I really liked how it kinda went dark for an episode. And that blonde guy though >:o. |
 |
| damn that was dark i'm really liking this change from just comey to dark and being serious |
 |
| Lots of talking this episode. Though, it still managed to be pretty enjoyable for me at least. I really liked Hajime's criticism of Juugo in particular. |
| Cross-country >>>>>>>>>>>> Every other sport |
| Hajime´s return!!! |
| Omg what an serous episode |
| It's getting really serious now!! I can't wait till next episode!! |

| What is it with this anime and its constant genre hopping? |
 |
| if episode 8 was serious, this episode 9 has more drama and seriousness also in it! so Jyugo has no greed at all but Hajime helped him realize what's he's worth! And helped him stand-up again! of course this is also a plan of Hajime in order to investigate the "man with scar". 4/5. |
 |
| :0 ... Why do they keep going of the story !!!!!! The only reason why I'm still watching is because I'm almost done. The end of the show is making me angry! |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Well this sure was a completely different episode in terms of pacing and atmosphere! Looking forward to see what's next. |
 |
| Wait...I thought this show was supposed to be a gag anime. Why are they trying to get all serious now?? |
 |
on 
| Lmao I want the comedy back, I'm laughing at this one for other reasons |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| well, this turned.... Deep. also, something that's been both bothering and amusing me in the episodes of the anime is how colorful and sparkly everything has been, but in that cell, Jyugo wasn't sparkling at all, and not colorful at all, not very deep symbolism i guess, but i suppose the colors and the sparkles is some representation of how he view the world, or how he feels about it; the people and environments around him are like that since he likes them .w. ? so, does that mean things aren't like how Jyugo see them at all...... |
 I like to comment Episodes as i Watch them. |
| This is so much boring... I miss the first episode |
 |
| not particularly keen on the tone shift but, hey, at least the voice actors are doing their part. |
AnimeFreak-San said: is this a male gender issure...human issue...mental illness perhaps? |
| Really, just an entire episode of talking and slight backstory of some dude. I watched intensely, trying my best to really dive into it all but I just couldn’t get hooked to the story. The only think you lack is……”GREED”. Like give me a break. Hajime still shows no remorse even when the Warden was the one who gave him the suspension and his entire prison guard folk feel strongly against what he did. They were building it up sooooo much and really trying to get the feels into it but big swing and a miss. I still don’t get it, they literally showed like a few scenes of these dudes trying to break out of the prison and now….nothing. Everyone is just living it up and they love it there. I just feel misled is all. Hajime is supposed to be “interrogating” this highly restrained criminal, someone is eavesdropping during this and he’s like “who cares ladedadeda”. You can’t just show this guard who is willing to do it all for his job and then is just careless during moments like that. Will continue to watch it cause wanna finish it but seriously disappointed in how things are going for this anime so far. |
Vandelay Industries, this is George Can’t-Stand-Ya speaking, how may I assist you? |
| the whiplash from going to that intense and dramatic ending to the happy-go-lucky ED made me chuckle it would have been cool if he'd made him a guard or something. "desire" "goal" would have been better than "greed" which is an unhealthy excess of those |
