The last episode seemed rushed to me. The huge plot twist felt as if it came out of nowhere, and kinda ruined it for me. I will say, though, that the last two minutes of the show (right after the ED) left me on a better note than the entire episode. Looking back on the entirety of the show, it's okay. It had more potential to be way more interesting, but I enjoyed my experience. I hope that maybe we can get an OVA eventually.

And so it ends! Good final episode, a bit rushed but overall a great anime

Granny being to mastermind behind this plot was what I predicted but the butler doing all the field work wasn't something I saw coming

I noticed Daisuke is back to his normal self and over the top actions xD

I did hope for a bit more Suzue meddling and development
Nevertheless I would watch a second season!

Woah..........So his Sweet Grandma was the Evil behind all this....... But don't know why I am not that Surprised.....
Also, where was his Father all this time if he was alive......

The Ending was not that Great but Kambe went his Old Balance: Unlimited style again!!

I wish I could have got to see some Kato x Suzue moments but nvm.

I really liked this whole series.

Not to be that person but I watched it to find out about Suzue's secret identity and got payed jackshit. They really hyped up 'who is she?' had her walking around half naked for that mediocre relief in ep 3/4. This is the weakest mystery drama I've seen and as a Novel reader, I'm mad. My girl Suzue deserves better.
this is my biggest take away did her dirty

show was a decent watch that got better as it went on some episodes had really good direction ,though i don't think i'll understand the fandom for Daisuke Kambe easily one of the most dry characters i've seen this year alone lol he only got a bit more tolerable by the end then again can't put logic to thirst.

flat 7/10


Eh decent seems to be a compliment in this case. A lot of time was wasted on fanservice and unnecessary episodes. The unsolved mysteries and revelations fell all flat, they hyped up them up just to cater the most basic answers. The anime could've been so much better than it was. And don't get me started on all the main characters, Daisuke was dry, Suzue underdeveloped and we don't know anything about her, Haru was unnecessary. Well, I guess he served as a fujobait? Bc yeah, we can't have a ML and FL, every anime needs 2 ML. The fact that fans compare their nonexisting romance with Banana Fish, The Case Files of Jeweler Richard and YOI is mind blowing.

Damn Alfred was the bad guy all the time. Didn't expect that twist with his granny. Angry Granny I guess.
Also Batman and Robin finally went international. The adventures of millionaire detective and his side kick continues on.

It's actually so good. What a finale, brilliant. Probably one of my favourite finales. The OP and the ED is also one of my favourites. It's just so good. The OST is amazing, favourite OST that I usually wait to happen, usually whenever there's a repeated ost in anime, you recognize it and start thinking about it. But some of the OST in this anime just makes me want it more, the OST is so good.

Do you think there would be second season or a continuation of this? I really want to know your thoughts.

That was a decent finale. Felt like the anime had the potential to do more considering how I liked the overall concept of the show. But it had its moments. Can't really say I liked this show a lot. Maybe I'll settle with a 6/10 for this one.

This was a good story.

Well, I was kind of expecting there to be the kind of satisfaction that you get when you read Sherlock Holmes or watch some other detective fiction where you can solve the mystery yourself, but this didn't have it, which was slightly disappointing. (I only expected that because the protagonists are detectives.)

HEUSC has more personality than daisuke's cousin. Lol.

I thought this episode didn't have any BL, but then Daisuke and Haru went on a walk in the sunset.

mmm i guess i take back some of what i said now that i thiink about it more seriously this show could've been way more but it ended up just being "watchable" i think at first i was fine with it being some dumb buddy cop show with a des ec machana plot device of unlimited money solving everything but when the actual mystery kicked in i thought this was gonna be the real show but seeing it didn't pan out paying off then it going back to the same dumb stuff was kinda slap in the face in end so more of a 6-7/10

not touching on the fandom since i avoided it right after the first episode but that's insulting if people compared this to Banana Fish

LOL the Daisuke letting Haru fall again was priceless. I can't stop laughing.
I half expected that suit he had on to do something though like rocket him off/up....ahh well, guess that wasn't installed yet lol

I'm sort of surprised Suzue would willingly go on a vacation seeing how much she worries about Daisuke...but other than that....good end.

Personally, I'm not sure if I'd like a sequel or not....I'm sure there might be OVAs eventually but Daisuke's done solving the whole reason he started being a cop....

If it goes anything beyond that I fear it'll be some sort of weird "Daily lives of Daisuke & Haru" thing which....I think would ruin whatever good vibe it currently has going with this end right now...

Something that really bothers me
Who sent Daisuke the package with the sunglasses with all the info on his mother's case? Like where did that come from?!
Because it shows that's what motivated him to come back to Japan & investigate
The only other person with access to HUESC was his grandmother but why would she send him that when she kept telling him to stop investigating in the first place?

It was a fun show. And props to Japan for finishing it only a season later after the pandemic fucked everything in the Spring season. I can't even imagine how crazy anime production must be or have been these past couple of months.

It was interesting how the series went from this fun romp to this super serious anime towards the end. I feel like the plot could've kicked in a bit earlier, or at least blended it better. As for the final episode, I was not expecting the grandma. That was pretty wild. The ending was funny and all, and a nice callback to the first episode, but come on, you'd think after all this time together Daisuke would just help him out. At least show that they're friends now in a way that calls back to the first episode but also ends it all on a nice note between the two. Oh, well.

Enjoyable show though.

That was a really good final episode, damn I really thought Shigemaru was a dick that it didn't cross my mind that Grandma Kambe would be the one pulling the strings. I didn't thought of it at all but, I think they executed it pretty well.

The way they ended it though did have me grinning, if only we had more shenanigans like that in the end. Though the way they ended it feels like it's open enough for a second season so here's to hoping.

Pretty decent show, it has to be said, the Kambe family plot aspect felt a bit weak to me, the previous episodic crimes were far better. 7.

When your asked to take the red pill or the blue pill and your kinda freaking out about it and your partner makes it for you and you know its the right choice.

Totally awesome ending for a wild show with a crazy premise. The only thing its lacking is an ova with all the ladies in bikinis at the beach. No not you granma, your going to jail! Unless of course the ova covers her escape and everyone running around to catch her. Love it!!

Dang I knew the butler was suspect when they focused on him during Cho & Takei's meal. He is a ninja. I think the butler might have knew about the tap but still let it follow it? :/

I'm glad his dad didn't kill her. The rich mother in law being evil as always. I'm so sad this happened to Kambe's family since they seemed very happy in the flashbacks.

Haru being the one to make the last choice is great. Also fitting that it ends on the bridge lol

Didn't expected the fucking Grandma and the Butler (already suspicious of him as butlers never can be trusted in murder mysteries) to be the culprits. But more shocking the director was an acting director all this time!?! Pretty good anime about the experienced investigator and the new millionair detective solving crimes and mysteries with the help of money and technology....Balance: UNLIMITED!

A solid anime all around, but it's a shame that the fire that burnt so bright at the beginning of the series dwindled as it went on, but at least it roared again for a great finale. Pleasantly surprised by this show; both the pacing and the world-building were elements I thought would be overshadowed by the character-centric narrative, but they were accommodated nicely.

Well the only thing I didn't expect was Daisuke didn't help Kato. I thought maybe their bond grew that far, but I guess he really is a jerk! haha!

I always felt that his grandmother was very suspicious. I wasn't surprised that she was behind it all.

She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did!

HMMMM!!!! That ending has me grinning SO MUCH!!!!! I love series that have that parralel between the way they start and end. I was soooo hoping he'd fall just like the first time and they did it PERFECTLY!! XDDDDDDD Having him hold his hand out only to smug smile with the music in the background. God I loved this series.

This series was extremely unique. Ive never watched anything like it and god Daisuke is SUCH a lovable character. He's easily in my top 3 favourite male characters now. I can definitely see myself buying this on DVD and re-watching it.

I love the relationship between Kato and Daisuke it works so well.

Overall solid 9/10. Loved it!

I was expecting more from Suzue based from the opening. I'm pretty sure she was destined to have a major role but then the staff crossed out the idea due to fanservice. Was supposed to give this a 7/10 but y'all did Suzue dirty. 6/10 for me.

I also wanted to see more of her, not fanservice, but she is nice.

The show ended nicely. The mystery build up, action scenes, Haru being Haru, Daisuke being Daisuke and Modern Crimes division being themselves, everything added up and ended nicely. Daisuke Kambe lost his family members but he gaid a new family, better one also. The scenes after the ED were especially great. The chase, the perpetrators shouting 'Fugou keiji', Daisuke literally showing off his wealth and Haru always getting stuck with the worst part. And a nice little flashback at the end.
Definitely it was a good watch and going to miss it a lot.

No doubt, for me is one of the best anime series of this year.
