Below are pretty much everything I wrote while the episode was ongoing up until the end of it:

"Himeno, jesus christ. XD And Oh no. But yeah, if she did it with a minor who's revealed to be 16, she's definitely get in trouble. Makima's chupa chups was woah tho. That was adorable.

Himeno and Denji also forming an alliance, nice.

Also, did not expect that Makima's... death??? Arai?? Kobeni?? (even though I do still somewhat hate her) This is by far the darkest episode so far."

Overall, I really don't know where we will go from here. But holy christ, from 0 to 100 with no time to literally process everything.

Wtf... what's the point of having a best girl if she dies in the end?! God. Even her death was so tragic. I can't imagine how Aki felt T___T he finally used his katana even though it shortened his life, then Himeno finally sacrificed using all of herself, BUT she still died in the end?! I hope whoever that girl is gets ripped to shreds.

Can't believe Makima cockblocked Denji. And it seems like that was his only chance to get it on with Himeno, what a waste. She really did not get much screentime before disappearing.

I’m really shocked by what happened Jesus. Did not expect so many characters to die. I knew about Makima but not that basically everybody else dies as well. That really made me sad bruh

This ed ends with flowers on a grave. Rip Himeno. She gave her all to unleash all of the ghost devil, which was enough to at least buy some time before getting instantly devoured by, snake.

Excellent episode, F and NT Himeno...what a shame to love or like someone who doesn't feel the same way about you, on top of that you sacrificed yourself for that person without success...double the sadness
So that's Aki's other skill with the katana, it's very good, it's a shame it didn't work either... the enemies are also very powerful.
It seems that the hunt has taken a turn and now they are going after all the demon hunters.

PS: very good ending and I don't think they'll eliminate Makima so quickly

Woww, what an episode...

First of all, I found it really cute how Denji wanted his 1st time to be Makima. As a romantic myself, I was really proud of Denji! Also, that scene with Makima was so cute, it really makes me like Makima more and more.
I still don't like what Himeno did though, her attitude with Denji was, in a way, abusive, and Denji deserved better honestly. Later in the episode she said she was completely drunk, and didn't even know what she did last night, admiting she didn't want to take advantage of him.
But I don't know if she only did because she was not being herself due to the alcohol, or that she just used that as an excuse, seeing Denji refused and was the adult there. Either way, glad that nothing happened.

With that situation resolved, we get a really bloody messy episode, starting why Makima being shot... I'm pretty sure she didn't die, but my question is how she didn't die... Unless she is like Denji, and is also a "Devil Shifter".
After that we get what seems to be a massive attack on Devil Hunters, planned by the Gun Devil, with all the hunters being shot... The cinematic for these scenes was amazing
The most intense scene is with the introduction of the Katana Devil. So this is what everyone was talking about in these discussions. Wow, the way Denji is already shot in the head (pretty sure he is not dead, but even by being part Devil, wouldn't a shot in the head kill him?), Himeno was also badly hounded, and Aki isn't able to defeat Katana Devil, being badly hounded himself too... I thought he was able to do it with the sword of the Curse Devil, but that girl just revived Katana Devil, like it was nothing...
Also, that scene with the Curse Devil was amazing! This anime is delivering so much with the cinematics!
We also saw Himeno sacrificing herself to use the full power of the Ghost Devil, just for the Girl to use the Snake (?) Devil and kill the Ghost Devil in no time... Himeno's sacrifice wasn't enough to stop them... And the episode ended with that, and OMG the suspense is intense... I wasn't expecting this episode to be so intense, it makes so much sense why the ending song is called "First Death"...
Simply an amazing episode. I believe Himeno is not completely Dead, since the ending hints that she's trapped in another "universe" and will continue to look towards Aki from there. For the 1st time, Himeno's partner didn't die on her, since she saved him :(
Also, Katana Devil seems like is just like Denji, so Makima really must know what Denji's secret is.

I'm really excited for the next episode.
This has been the best episode of the season so far, the direction and animation were amazing! People weren't lying when they said this arc was going to be amazing, I really wasn't expecting them to kill of the entire cast in one episode.

Edit: Really liked Makima's scene in the train, it was super well executed, and it also showed a more human side to Makima, and made me believe that she seriously likes the people that work with her, and also that wants to, maybe, change the way that line of industry works? Since the higher-ups seem to not really care about the Devil Hunters themselves, and only look out for their own interests. I'm really interested to see how Makima's character will develop.

Edit 2: This was my 100th post, that's nice

man i rewatched this and the cinematography and directing as well as the music and stuff this episode were just on point. amazing episode and generally makes me realise how much attention was put into this show as a whole. got to see a lot of himeno this episode as it was clearly focused on her. but this episode was great, definitely one of my favorites of the season

Ugh I hate how the manga took this sharp turn into sudden gun violence. I really, really feel like this broke the whole mood that was great in the last episode. Everybody dies and suddenly there is a crazy situation. It does build on Himeno's story, but I wish that that situation had had more time to build overall. Also I really like that the creators shows Himeno's point of view when Denji was at her house. I love the filters and colors they used during those scenes.
