Episode was good, I liked how he made the police provide an alibi for him. :D

I didn't like how the Revolver didn't have any recoil (again) and that there wasn't the slightest bit of panic once the guy got shot though.

Haha great one, I prefer the episodes where the police wants to prove Golgo guilty like the 2nd ep, it's so much fun watching his strategies. Golgo is really an awesome main character !

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

Watching this episode, it felt like watching a detective anime backwards. No detective trying to prove who's the murderer, but a murderer having the police help him get out unharmed.

Concurd.=p

One of the best episodes so far. I like how he was silent the whole time and acted as nothing happened. Then again it's like that all the time.

I've been enjoying this show the entire run so far, but I really liked this episode. Very similar in premise to episode 2, but went a totally different direction. Very clever.

Great episode. I agree that these types of episodes are really good as well, and seeing Golgo's amazing tactics is always very interesting.

Golgo carrying balloons just looked so silly. Also, what's up with all these other guys that look almost exactly like Golgo. The character designs leave something to be desired.

Golgo negates recoil using inter-dimensional portals created by his muscles. Duh. :3

I also loved that episode. Those are the best ones of this anime so far.

Actually it was pretty funny and awesome. xD
Maybe call it epic.

But I think any FBI agent who sees that guy with balloons in his hands must smell that s.t. is fishy here.

Regarding the balloons: He hid the gun in one of them. I don't think one single balloon is able to support the weight of even a super-light plastic gun. A working gun must have some heavier parts in it, too. He also didn't have enough balloons to get the gun to fly away.
But let's disregard the minor details. xD

Actually, the balloon that had the gun in it wasn't a real balloon, it was supported by a stick and probably just filled with air. And later, with the gun suspended from a string, a few helium balloons could carry off something the weight of a cap pistol (plastic revolver) easily, so that's not a problem either.

But still, this is Golgo 13, gravity doesn't work in his presence.

I checked again and saw that you are right. It was really on a stick. But then again I really don't think the 5 or 6 helium balloons he had left are enough to make the gun fly away.
Also it's nearly impossible to run away from the balloon guy and the 2 FBI agents with only this stupid distraction. I mean there was no standing croud but they were all sitting and he was back at the end where no croud was.

But as you said: in most shows of that kind you can find such things... ^^

Especially Golgo 13, which is kind of notorious for requiring suspension of disbelief, on the whole as a franchise.

Lol indeed.

Btw he trolled the police like a boss, someone please make an image of Golgo with the troll face.

It's quite known by now that in a staring contest between him and a rock the rock loses. My kitchen table has more emotional outbursts than Golgo.

I wonder how nobody expects the balloon in the first place
It's just out of place within his hands xD

Damn, he already checkmated all of them before the deed is done
He played them all Like a damn fiddle

His plan and alibi are airtight! But, it was only possible for Golgo since his accuracy is 100%
