this episode was really entertaining, I much prefer the show when it isnt ryo swooning over pretty ladies, ryo was really funny when talking to the contractor and acting like a magician.

Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me

That was really good, this was the first episode that actually felt like City Hunter and what I expected it to be.

I hope we get more episodes like this for a change. Not that I mind Ryo helping gals every episode, but it feels nice seeing something different haha. In the end, he still did everything for a girl.

Definitely an improvement! Damn, I was moved in a short span of 23 minutes. Ryo Saeba, his heart totally fluttered. (He totally did this for free)

Loli power! XD

Oh dear Umibozu!


Out of all the episodes so far, I found the backstory much enticing and realistic.
I don't know why people write that they are approachable persons,
if you were you wouldn't be on MAL.

Finally a client who is a man! Ryou didn't want to accept the case at first, but he has no problem accepting cases from men if they manage to make his heart "flutter", huh. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I guess Ryou isn't a lost cause/degenerate guy after all, a pity the man this time wasn't really handsome, he was pretty charming though lol but his circumstances were compelling, and pretty sad. A politician with power, and influence just took away his life from him, and he wasn't even able to meet his daughter who has been constantly waiting for him. Ryou took care of it all though, and it seemed he enjoyed playing the role of a killer, it was good.

My fav episode so far, Ryou's policy of only wanting to help beautiful woman has its charm buuut it was nice to see somthing else for once, whille the beautiful woman formula will prob be most of the episodes i do hope we got more episodes like this one.

I'm liking Ryou and Kaori as a duo quite alot already, i'm hoping to see some romantic development soon.

Awww, Ryou just cheered up that child immediately
Hey! Don't call Ryou lolicon!
What's wrong with making a child happy, maybe in 10 years she'll become a sexy lad- I mean good person!

Haha Umibouzu, you know it's a prank but still do it

That why I never trust Joker's word

Really great episode that can pull on any emotional string. Good to see the d-bag politician lose all that money!

Ryou's brain is in his testicles the majority of the time, but he knows when to switch that thinking off when it comes to bitches.

I was quite tense during the car scene and honestly didn't know whether the guy would make it out alive or not. What a ridiculously risky plan xD

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Faking a hit, pretending to be Umibozu. Amazing episode with a happy outcome. Ryo's lines to make him sound even more psychotic as a hitman left him stunned.

Fantastic, such a nice, heartwarming episode...and funny to boot (Umibozu haha). Some nice tension towards the end too, definitely a top-tier episode.
