the intelligent Kaiju is interesting and all but its weird how there wasa a cp tracking system and they still didnt knew anything about when Kafka transformed, well he mightve done something smarter like removing his suit maybe idk
also the author tries too hard to make the mc look funny,

Shinomiya was really fighting like hell. Like good lord a broken arm, multiple wounds, and she kept going until she couldn't. Glad Kafka was gon the scene tho.

ishikawa x Kafka carry gives me second hand embarrassment even the second captain Hoshino feels it lol. I was expecting things to go wrong but who knew it would be a sentient kaijuu like Kafka but this one seems more aligned with kaijuu than human. I wasn't expecting Shinomiya to have a dark past of expectations from an overbearing father. It seems like she was bred to inherit some sort of wealthy family, episode was pretty good

Interest stacks

Shinomiya sure is skilled but she got high pressure from her father who wants her to be #1 everywhere, it almost ended badly but Kafka had to transform to his Kaiju form and save her, seems like she's backing him up at least... and now it also seems like Kaiju can transform into humans to trick them...

It seemed like everything was going a little too well during the test, but didn't expect another human like Kaiju.
They definitely hyped it up with that animation, despite it being quite a short scene.
Kafka also now has to keep his secret with Shinomiya, but it looks like she's going to keep it for now.

This episode was so close to being an epic showdown. I think it was held back by various trope tbh. For one, I feel like the female lead was made way too helpless and that considering all that's happened so far. Damsel in distress is nothing bad, but considering her obsession with our MC so far, I feel like it's going to be something of an obsessive love interest, the worst kind of shounen romance if we're being honest.

@JoestarEISH_020 Also, I see how the One Replubic or whatever's OST should've been used as perfectly layered in this episode. You know that music that was set in motion with that one punch, yeah that was awesome. Also, I feel like the comedy gets in the way far too often. I know that should be a thing but making the MC behave like an overpowered teenager in his 30s isn't one of them. It's a little over the top, not to say it should be toned down, but I prefer a better execution I'm afraid.

Loved the character progression, and the new Kaiju that could resurrect other dead Kaiju an augment them was creepy.

One more person knows Kafka is a kaiju! And looks like he isn't the only human-kaiju hybrid!

I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats.

They made a deal and he is laughing at teamwork . She isn’t even letting the others assist. The exam is complete allegedly. They uncombine. The daughter of the Director, a ray of Hope. A mysterious visitor waddles in. As predicted, the girl is in trouble. I’m not mad about it. The dead are all coming back to life even stronger. An incredible entity. It can talk. A monster within intelligence. She will fight through her bullet wounds. At the top of the list with no one to congratulate her. It is growing extra horns. A fools job is upon us. He will take it from here. Either the measurements are off or he is one of the strongest monsters in history. And once again it is raining red as it returns to daytime. Not even the best hits this hard. Also, now it is understandable for them to assume he is responsible for the regeneration. Too Many mysteries. Not time to talk to her yet. Just watch he’s coming. Unsure if this is doing him a favor or not. But only in character thing for her to say. Another human in monster form. This is theoretical 10 behavior all it has to do is keep up this and it’ll get a nine and a mildly impressed me and a 10. It has been very predictable though. But so far, not in way that are disappointing, but rather ways that are satisfying. 5

Very good episode, I was expecting that the typical of putting someone more powerful to the one who currently stands out the most (Kikoru) would happen.
Impossible expectations, since perfection doesn't exist... we are perfectly imperfect, when she said that someone had to stay behind to avoid more casualties and the others could evacuate (and she offers herself)... it's not the attitude of someone bad, so I like her even if she's arrogant.
I love that Kafka takes them all out in one hit even though she almost regenerates again hahaha
So there will be more cases like Kafka, I wonder if the kaijuu are adopting human form or is it like Kafka that a kaijuu got into him and modified him, only in Kafka's case he didn't lose his conscience... I guess like all anime, we have to wait for more answers

Oh brother. I started cheering for the unintelligent kaijus at one point because of how sick I am of the characters, and it was honestly hype to see the intelligent one absolutely demolish the rich girl. Honestly I would like to watch this anime if it was Overlord style, where the intelligent kaijus are the main characters. The characters introduced so far are either bland or annoying. I don't need to see the guy in the control room laughing his ass off for the 5th time, thank you, and I understood that the rich girl was powerful and have an obnoxious personality, move on.
