| When you think about it, Chisato is actually quite skilled on her assignments to dealing with the bad guys. Takina still maintains her practical approach and stoic face when facing danger. This was another bloody episode though. Somehow, they added an animal mascot character with Nakahara in the suit as part of that mission. Episode still had its goofy moments although the storytelling feels pretty much the same as before. |
 |
| I felt relieved to have been able to see a lot of actions in this episode. The best part was that dodging bullets scene. ---edit--- There was a wrongly drawn scene. After the blond protagonist loaded ammo in a magazine, she groped above a suitcase in vain. |

| Another really good episode. Probably even better than the first one. I love Chitaso's hilarious personality. :3 |

| Pretty much my same complained from last week, to much action it's clear this isn't my thing. I have to say that the characters seem pretty interesting the behaviour of the main being so happy is funny to watch combined with Takina who is just very stoic makes them seem like a nice pair. The trick with the suitcase was a nice one but it gives away what you can expect from the anime in general. Anyway have fun watching this anime, i will be watching something else. |
| A little surprised this still aired today but I ain’t complaining Claris masterclass for the OP takes me back to 2014, can’t wait for that to drop on Apple Music. Better episode than the first which is saying something because the first ep was awesome. The whole car/drone chase was so smooth. A-1 with some amazing animation there. Mizuki surviving 20 shots from AK’s is a massive stretch but fuck it we ball lmao. I like how Takina is slowly coming out of her shell at the end by being playful with her hair bands, poor kurumi was on the receiving end tho lol. |

| This episode might've got delayed or even there was a possibility of this series itself being pushed down to the next season, given how things went down with the former PM of Japan yesterday itself. But no japanese have their priorities clear, let the fire rage on we couldn't care less about anything except our cartoons. And so here we are with our second episode. Also is it like an unwritten rule that these black haired girls will always be those stuck-up types? Like just for once do something different. Also fuck those hundreds of bullets, not even a single one did anything lol. Rip teddy bear though.. or maybe not. |
 |
| ClariS's OP, it's really nice for them to come back with new songs. Well OK...the Alan Institute is an organization that's as weird as it comes, though the most I can make of them is a terrorist group of sorts. Meanwhile, the Lycoris get assigned to another mission to meet this hacker Walnut, and Chisato is still the same goofball with Takina remaining in her aloofness. Protecting him against Robota and his henchmen, the action is intense, and Chisato for all of her status as the best Lycoris agent, shows her proof in not getting hit, and hitting bullseyes each and every time. But in doing of all of this, Walnut getting himself accosted by the enemy, it's hard to watch. But all of this was a farce, where Mizuki successfully penetrated the mission being Walnut's scapegoat of kill, and the actual client Kurumi (a young girl) hiding in the suitcase turned out to be fine. A case of deception where "to fool your enemy, fool your friends first", and that's the business of LycoReco, with Yoshi playing games with them. The 2nd episode is definitely better executed, slowly getting an idea of how the show works now. |
 |
| so they are really gonna go with the conflict between deontology "the rule to never kill" represented by Chisato and utilitarianism "the end justifies the means" by Takina and lol the mind games between the Black Man leader and the White Man leader of each side is getting intense huh as usual the action is great and they got a new member a super hacker girl |
| Why are people surprised it is airing on the day it is meant to? was it supposed to have been delayed or something? Another enjoyable episode. |
| The line below is True. The line above is False. |
| Good episode its sweet how chisato shoots only to wound instead of kill and now the team has a new member |
| Looks I will fear Takina becoming boring non-lethal like Chisato over this most of this series. Damn these people that used cheat codes to be pacifist. Have a bulletproof suitcase these days, sound like a good investment. All over the world. |
 |
| Good action this episode, Chisato was lively as usual. Wasn't expecting Walnut to be a loli. Though how old is she? The director said walnut died multiple times in the past 30 years, so she's over 30 or is it something like inheriting the name and skills I wonder. |
 |
| Something I didn't notice on the first episode, but Takina has an inconsistent skill level. She can hit a small drone from a fast moving vehicle with handgun sights from maybe 20 meters away, but can't consistently hit a human sized target sitting still from 10 meters away. |
| Really love the pacing of this series, always has me interested in what's going on. I wonder what kind of past Chisato has had to both be so skilled and so compassionate. |
 |
| I'm somewhat surprised neither of them could recognize it was a squirrel, especially with a codename like Walnut. Overall, another good episode. I was really captivated with how Chisato fights. And the firearms and gun battles are something to behold for sure. Though it almost seems over-the-top that she can weave between sprays of bullets with ease, especially since it doesn't seem like any of the Lycoris girls have been enhanced in any way. But, it was still fun to watch. I really thought they killed off Walnut at the end there, it was a nice surprise to see it was just a sneaky ploy to fake Kurumi's death. |

I think Takina was testing out Chisato's ability to dodge projectiles. It seems almost supernatural doesn't it. That was a fucking awesome episode... |

| Chisato is hilarious. I love her personality! The banter between her and Takina is great too. But damn dude, Chisato is a straight up machine. Dude unloaded that AK on her point blankly and she dodged all of it. Plus she shot that that dude without even looking through that doorway. Incredible. They really went full on Sonny Corleone on Walnut there. Really thought the dude was dead, but it was a ploy the whole time. Smart play! Didn’t think Walnut was gonna be an adorable pint sized girl either. I’m really curious to know what exactly made Chisato so against killing when it’s basically their job. Hit gone wrong and innocents died? Death of a close comrade due to her actions? Whatever it is, I’m very keen to find out. Overall, another fantastic episode. This is turning out to be a really good anime. |
| Fun episode all around. I love the dynamic between Chisato and Takina. Not a huge fan of Kurumi surviving and seemingly becoming a main cast member, albeit that’s mainly because I hate the trope of anime having a small asocial hacker child. |
 |
| Great episode again, very entertaining. Love Chisato and Takina, they easily carry this show for me. Love the action sequences too, over the top but presented with nice style. Curious about Chisato's superhuman dodging abilities. I totally guessed the real body was in the suitcase but I didn't expect the person in the suit to be Mizuki. |
 |
| Chisato is really a kind person she heals the enemy and ask him casually things. So this mission was to improve their teamwork so i thought so walnut is that little girl Kurumi lol. OP nice from Claris. I love how Takina in the end want to get closer to chisato and kurumi. |

| Actually, it was great but i dont think i liked the part which chisato does her stuff. I'm okay with cute girls doing dirty jobs but dodging a bullets without moving, zamnnnn Also, 8/10 for the opening, 11/10 for ending |

My favourite Chisato's face for now...  |
| Great episode! Chisato was late because she slept in a bit too much xD. Seems they have another mission to carry out straight away... Chisato convinced Takina to eay something other than a jelly drink lol. No supercar for Chisato... She dodges bullets so well?!! Walnut got shot a lot... and didn't die! Inside was Mizuki! It was a buletproof suit. And the real walnut was in the suitcase abd us a young looking girl... Seems walnut will be staying in their place for a bit. Looking forward to the next episode! |
| AISHITERU...REM! |
| Great ep with good action. I actually didn't expect Walnut to turn out to be another girl and they even added her to their side. lol |

Imo, these types of personality are usually given to blue haired characters as far as I can remember. But, when there are no characters with blue hair in sight, these type automatically go to the black haired one. |

| This Episode is so Amazing, might even better than the first episode. More action, better story development and the opening song is also pretty good too. Just like Episode 1, this episode feels like a stunning American Action film. A-1 Pictures is becoming the second KyoAni. And Chisato was watching John Wick!!!?  |
Rakshal said: Something I didn't notice on the first episode, but Takina has an inconsistent skill level. She can hit a small drone from a fast moving vehicle with handgun sights from maybe 20 meters away, but can't consistently hit a human sized target sitting still from 10 meters away. I think I can help answer some of this: 1. For episode 1 bad guys in the car, Takina did ask them first to tell her where did the weapons go to try getting some info and only seems to go kill mode after they didn't answer her but stopped by Chisato after reload. 2. For this episode supermarket battle, what the bad guys seems to be wearing bulletproof vest (up to most pistol ammo). So only head, neck, hands, and legs area left unprotected. But because it seems that Takina want to try following Chisato instructions about "no killing" after episode 1, she avoid vital parts by only aimed at the upper arm and armpit area. To be fair, my analysis might get invalidated later when Takina shows more blatant inconsistency. But for now (and for me), the skills Takina shows so far did makes some sense with that claim she made. |
| Good episode, I like it so far. Let me say this now, 13 episodes seems way too low if this show turned out to be one of the best for this season and I might wish for more. |
| yea this shit is my jam! cute girls doing some bad ass thing like dodging bullets in thin air or shooting a drone in a car in mid air.. The production values are fking bonkers imo and i'm hyped |
vivster said: Marinate1016 said: I like how Takina is slowly coming out of her shell at the end by being playful with her hair bands, poor kurumi was on the receiving end tho lol. I don't think she was being playful at all there. She was impressed by seeing Chisato's dodging abilities earlier and was testing the limits of her ability herself. I'm assuming she's even more impressed now that she was able to effortlessly dodge without even expecting a shot and from a master markswoman no less. I think her dodging ability is gonna play a bigger role later. I think that last scene was amazing since it showed both Takina's pragmatic character and Chisato's insane ability. The direction for this one is stunning. You’re entitled to your opinion |
|
| Seeing ClariS doing the opening for this show and the ending song for Shadows House is great. The way Chisato casually dodged the bullets was awesome. Honestly didn't see "that" coming. Wonder what Mr. Yoshi's end game is going to be. On another note, zashiki-warashi are spirits/yokai that live in a house. They are fond of mischief and believed to bring great fortune to those whose houses it haunts. Looks like Kurumi will be a great asset to the team. |

| I'm the only that something notice...? Kurumi isn't somehow similar to whom (a hint: it's as well from KyoAni-verse)? Edit: This episode was as well very funny, action loaded and interesting. I guess that her fight style coming from a lot John Wick films/movies. Side note: Well, a AK isn't the well accurated assult riflearm - especially in full-auto mode. It's very hard in this mode something to aiming, because the barrel always upward rising at firing. |
 |
| Oh shit I can't hit this highschool girl at point blank range with an assault rifle, oh well |
 |
| A solid second episode after a great and enjoyable first episode. The chemistry/interaction between the two female leads is still the main selling point in the anime for me. Chisato's the chill one who can do it by taking it not seriously. Then you have Takina who's way too serious but that's a common trophe. Anyway, I really don't sell the "best hacker" of Japan being a loli but whatever. Chisato sliding between those AK shots was the fucking shit. |

| I have so many questions . So she just walks off machine gun bullets? Craziest stff I've seen lol. My theory: |

| Really loved this episode! Chisato is again the highlight for me, as intense as this show can get, she always makes me smile~ Truly a blessing to have her with us this season. I am dying for some of her backstory though, because the way she dodges bullets is just unreal, and I'm sure that something special happened- through her training or otherwise- to make her that good. Of course Walnut is smol and precious underneath that dog squirrel suit, I shouldn't have expected anything less from this Cute Girls Do Cute Assassinations show. I love the interactions between the squad and I'm really looking forward to seeing more of them together! I'm pretty sure Takina was testing Chisato's reflexes at the very end there, as cute as that hairband moment was. The animation was so good, there's just something about the fluidity of Chisato's dodging movements that I really enjoy, and A-1 is giving us a lot of crisp eye candy in general, so far~ Not much else to say since we're only 2 episodes in, but I'm genuinely so glad I decided to pick up this show this season, I can already see it being a fave for me if it keeps up this momentum! Also, I really hope we're not seeing the last of Chisato's :3 face, it gives me so much life~ |
 I'm okay now... At least... I want to be able to say that. ✧✧✧✧✧✧ profile ✧ watching ✧ reading ✧ art credit |
| You almost think shit got real just to learn "it's a prank bro" That's basically the vibes I'm getting lmao. Pretty amusing and the goofy twists are hilarious. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Another great episode. If it keeps like this it will be easily AOTS. Chisato keeps piquing my interest I wanna know more about her character |
