I'm a big fan of Anne's character. She's my favorite in the game. I think there's a lot more depth to her than some people give her credit for. I liked her arc. Even though we've already seen the bulk of it with the Kamoshida chapter. But there are at least two moments in the game. Where she has to use her sexuality as bait to aid the Phantom Thieves. And I HATE these scenes. They seem disrespectful after her whole arc was about her rejecting being treated like a toy or object. And the game seems to get off on her discomfort in these situations.

I wish I could say the anime toned it down. And handled it a bit more respectfully. But if anything it was worse. Which I suppose I should have expected from A-1. But Anne throwing her bra to distract Yusuke was lurid. And her practically in tears as she slides her tank top sleeve down trying to buy as much time as possible. Was downright awful.

Setting that aside though. Which is hard for me to do. Damn fine episode. I loved Morgana trying to pick the lock with his cat paws. I loved our flashback glimpse at baby Yusuke when Madarame is taunting him. I LOVED Yusuke's awakening think it's best one the anime's done yet. And I enjoyed their little talk at the diner at the end. This anime is solid at handling the slice of life elements of the game. If not as deft at the main plot.

If only Ryuji and Anne will end up cosplaying as Tusk and Angelise from Cross Ange at this point....
Anyway, cute Yusuke flashback though...

I like Yusuke's first decision of his own alias as "Da Vinci"... too bad that wasn't picked
they have now four Phantom members...
4/5.

Man, OP and ED are so good in this show, love them!

Basically Ann is the only thing why this show is worth watching.
And the fact that a new member joins every couple of weeks, that is fun, I guess.

Damn has Ann always had that nice body? pretty rude comment there of yusuke asking if she gained weight. Just a random thought but knowing Madarame's true self, I kinda doubt he actually painted 'Sayuri' perhaps he also plagiarized that one

We really liked this one. Yusuke's development was well-done, and Madarame gave a serious heel turn with some really cruel stuff to say. Ann's trick was pretty funny. I actually forgot how funny that scene was! Even though I know how this plays out, I am excited to see how this plot plays out!

Madarame's palace feels rushed definitely, and they don't give much context from the game for most of what's happening, at least Yusuke joining them now
