| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Yup, we got the second half of the race this episode. Pretty intense episode with everyone fighting for the win and even reporters being excited about the event. The added element of the railroad train made the race look even more exciting if you ask me. Got to see Gil fight a bit which is cool. However, that Richard guy is really no pushover. |
 |
| OMG the ending made me tear up. KOSAME 😭😭😭 |
 |
| Knew from how last week's episode was, that it was the calm before the storm. A fun episode, before we get this 0 to 100 right away kind of episode. Really brutal stuff. |
| Preview shows Kosame is ded. RIP |
| The most intense episode of the series up to this point - changing the pace of all the previous episodes by 360 degrees |

| Wait, It's not a racing anime? |
| Nice, kill the good main character of the show to save a brat that would be dead a long time ago if he was alone. Very nice... |
| Nah bro there’s gotta be magic in this world right? I know they didn’t kill off my mans Kosame like this, no way man :( This is not what I was expecting from this show 😔 man. Pain |
 |
| Okay, talk about an unexpected turn of events... Kosame, by the looks of the next episode, is done and dusted but I'm still holding on to the possibility that he'll return somehow. I don't even want to dive into the possibilities now, I feel like it'll turn out to be a troll ultimately but let's see. Cigar showing his true colors, finally. Can't say I'm impressed with how the episode progressed honestly but it was certainly a change of pace for sure. Calm before the storm, should've seen this coming last week. Anyway, on to the final 3 episodes now. Please don't be rushed! |

| Let's believe in anime gods that Kosame somehow survives. |
| No no no! Kosame... don't die! That bastard, he took Sofia too. It all went wrong so quickly. I never expected this anime to have this kind of drama. It's a lot more realistic & fleshed out then I thought it would be. Gil's a pretty good villain though; he's quite scary and very unpredictable |
 |
| Yo wtf? Talk about an unexpected, but welcomed twist. Gil definitely not playing around and he did his best to piss everyone off. I was afraid he was just a try hard maniac that won't do any devastating damage, glad that the end of the episode proved me wrong. Holy fuck, dude. R.i.p. Kosame:( and props to this series for such a daring move |

| I knew it Gil T Cigar aka Richard is the villain that Hototo was suppose to be looking for and is also the one who killed Dyland's love, Claudia... Now where were those 2 Gorillas who packs an arsenal of weapons with them when them racers needed them the most???? So, from here it is no longer a race , but a payback and rescue mission for Sofia. |
| lol they killed kosame....talk about unexpected. |
 |
| They wouldn't kill their best character right? RIGHT????? However if they did, my hat's off to P.A. Works for taking this gutsy decision. If he's gone, he did it like a true hero protecting the life of the person he cared the most. In a way that was his biggest desire since he couldn't protect his mother. And if he's somehow alive I'm glad all the same because I'd love him to kick some Gil's ass. |
| If Kosame dies we riot!!!! |
 |
| Hang in there Kosameeeee! You gotta return home!!! Shit, the next ep. will have rain... WHY IS THERE A LUMP IN MY THROAT!? D: |
| Im so sad jesus christ kosame was the only character i actually cared about--- F in the chat for best boy Also idk why but i felt like the villains introduction lasted too much? I mean i get it, youre an evil sadistic greedy motherfucker- we already knew- |
| What a shitshow, this whole anime was a bait. Race my ass it's been shitty drama one after another, wtf was the point of the race. RIP Kosame thou, he was a good guy. Also I'm dissapointed in TJ, I liked the guy and he straight up lost to Gil. |
 |
| Since Kosame can able dodge the bullets with his katana why he didn't the same thing to protect Appare? |
| Had a feeling ever since the one Brother (Tristan?) turned out to not be Gil that it would actually be Richard, Tsuda Kenjirou never plays a character that whitebread without some crazyness lurking beneath the surface 😅 |
| “SAITO! YOU NEED TO EXPLODE! FOR THE WORLD’S SAKE!” |
| looks like this episode bad guys win huh... 4/5. |

| If Kosame is really dead, and it looks like he is, I will be very saddened and pissed. On the one hand this would be a very bold move from the writers but on the other I would still prefer he survives. Richard / Cigar Gil wiped the ground with everyone before even his goons arrived. He is a way too OP character for this kind of show, so I wonder how he will fall in the end.. |
 |
| Fuck you gil. BOoooo go home |

| my god, what an episode! It only had a small bit of racing in it today (which I why I started watching this), but damn, I kinda don't care anymore, cause this took a serious twist with the Gil reveal and Kosame getting shot and died? I never saw it coming that one of the main leads would actually get shot.. Gil is savage and very overpowered compared to all the racers, he even took care of TJ like it was nothing. Dylan never was able to put up a fight when his emotions got the better of him. It's been a long time since I have been this excited for the next episode.... |
 |
| well that was trash, the guy came there, randomly destroyed the cars (while asking them to get the race money?), shoot some bullets and then leave running with an hostage... if this wasn't 3 episodes left i would have dropped it without even thinking lmao |
favorite "new girls" from summer <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks (rip all the other choices) |
| Damn. They really killed off a main character? I mean this show hasn't been afraid of death. Lots of random characters have died, so yeah I guess he probably is dead. |
| Not gonna lie, this was the best episode so far. I was kind of getting tired of Appare being this nonchalant genius and it being some cheesy comedy but Gil T. Cigar is the best character so far. I feel sorry for Kosame because of Appare, he died. |
| 臭い- |
| A really unexpected episode. 2 episodes ago when Kosame killed Gil's henchmen, I regretted the lack of blood/violence that should have accompanied the scene. This week's episode took me by surprise : murders without mercy, very short censor (every dead character was shown except for the train drivers who got slaughtered by knives). The sort of friendly-friendly atmosphere from the last episode absolutely disappeared, leaving a tragic momentum. |
 |
| Well that took an unexpected turn |
  |
| Looks like the shit has hit the fan so hard for this race. Damn... Gil has revealed his true colours and his plan went underway without a hitch. His henchman quickly took over the train, slaughtered the train drivers, and even destroyed the cargo carriages, which one of them sadly was blown into the path of the unlucky Bad Brothers. I hope those two are okay. =( Gil was only getting started. Not only was he taunting at our group of racers, but he pulled no punches, either. He proved that by beating TJ with ease, then proceeded to do the same to Dylan when his emotions got the better of him. Not just that, but he then severely damaged all of the cars, too. Appare lost his cool, which Gil responded by shooting at him..........with Kosame taking the fatal blow instead. With that done, Gil left and blew up part of the bridge, hampering Al's desperate attempt to rescue Sofia. Overall, this brutal turn of events was done really well from P.A Works. Not only are all of the competitor's cars are out of commission, but Kosame seems to have been killed off at the end of the episode, which seems to be the case when the preview clip played in the ED shows him with a small towel over his face in a bed. If he's really dead, then that a gutsy move for the series to make, in killing off one of the main characters, and a very likeable one, too. T_T |
| WTF! Oh wow, I didn't expect them to kill Kosame... at all. Even if I still had some hope left, the preview took it away. Well, who knows, it's anime and anything can happen. Girl throwing that guy out the window was hilarious xD. |
| Did not expect this turn of events. I really do like Kosame but honestly I hope P.A. has enough balls to actually let him die instead of giving us a fake death scare with him somehow getting saved in the last moment. Preview hints to the former though, but we'll see. |
| But... but I was shipping Kosame with Jing. :'( JiangHaoyi1979 said: Now where were those 2 Gorillas who packs an arsenal of weapons with them when them racers needed them the most????

| So Gil finally reveals himself. I'm really sad that Kosame was murdered. Hes definitely one of the highlights of the show. Something in me hopes that they'll bring him back, but hes probably dead fr fr. I guess we'll see next episode, but I felt that kosame's arc came to a satisfying conclusion, since he was finally able to protect someone he loves. Poor Hototo... |
    Bandori is love <3 Bandori is life <3 |
| I'm pretty sure Kosame is alive, despite what is showing on the preview. Why? Because i can't remember any main character dying by being shot on the right side of the body trunk. That particular shot is basically when writers are not really committed to a certain death, and is not really useful if you are going to kill the character anyway... or at least I hope i'm right, because I think Appare and Kosame are just starting to develop their relationship and Kosame's early death would be really lame for the show, even terminal imo. |
