Okay episode. Is it just me or the anime has become a bit shallow in the last few episodes?

Well, they killed my favourite girl. Will watch the remaining 3 episodes just for the sake of finishing it.

Well that is what happens when they make a perfect adaptation until the few episodes(doesn't make sense)... And change the rest without thinking.

Screw the Mine haters, she's not even that bad. Decent enough character (one of my favs) so I'm sad to see her go. It was a pretty rushed death, but the anime has run into a wall so it's ok I guess.

Mine better fucking live in the manga, I really hope she makes it through. I don't think this is spoiling anything because the manga and anime are pretty different at this point. I bet the author has much different plans for the manga.

Also Buduo was such a badass in the manga, I feel like he was greatly diminished in the anime.


Budou was definitely nerfed in the anime


That too. This episode overall wasn't that good. Also, how did Mine actually die? It wasn't really clear.

The writing is terrible really. No matter how much you hate Mine you can't deny that her death (and Lubbock's) were complete shit.

It's funny how some of you are sooo confident that Mine will die in the manga after this trainwreck of an episode.

I ask this

When has terrible filler ever been inserted into a manga?

The author usually kills off one of his characters in christmas. Right now mine's the only one likely to die.

Mine died because of the recoil of her weapon or the thunder shock from budou

i think....

While that is true, you're basing that specific death off a terrible filler.

Happened a few times in Naruto; I could talk more about it but it'd be off-topic.

I find it very funny how easily the Teigu breaks in the anime.


That should be expected, she was fighting Budou of all people. I'd like to think of him as a bigger threat than Seryuu was, as it should be.

No one is confirmed dead until we see their ghastly corpse and only then if we made sure that it wasn't a clone, dummy, robot, or some other fake.

Rule #1 of Batman and anime.


The way the anime has gone if a character says they're gonna die they will. Except Najenda because she can't die.

Seems Mine died... I'm having trouble believing it though. She really didn't seem lethally injured. If you're able to lean up and kiss then you should be able to survive. Taking a few hits in this anime usually don't mean all that much unless your head ends up on a stake (or in a tummy).
I rarely revisit threads, so if you're after a reply you should PM me or post a comment on my profile.

No, but we get the rule of massive explosions/executions.

Unless there is a flashy death scene, nobody is dead.
(All the death scenes have been pretty clear)
Examples: Lubbo, Chelsea, Sheeeleee.

That's true I guess, especially since she mentioned that she can't heal like Leone, but it still seems half assed. All the deaths that have come before this have been clear cut and precise except maybe Bulat's.

The only ending I can think of that was better than the manga was Trinity Blood.
I mean, that's an extreme case, because the original author...well died.

I'm not liking the direction they're going with the Jaegers in the Anime though. Run has done literally nothing so far, Wave had one fight (against a Tatsumi who ran away), and Kurome is apparently going to die next episode judging from the preview. Removing
really killed a lot of character development for those three.

Woah so Mine died. Although it is anime only I got a bad feeling for upcoming chapters.

so far anime : manga still +1 death to be equal.

glad they did the Esdeath vs Susanoo fight.

I still don't understand how IT CAN BE SAID that Budou was nerfed. I ESPECIALLY dont understand the following:

Darklight0303 said:
Budou is still fuckin alive and took the full blast from Mine's Pumpkin just fine and was only more pissed than anything. That alone cancels out a good deal of your counter arguments. Yeah he's fast but at that time he was only dealing with Esdeath. Now there's Esdeath and Budou who can't be even bruised by a full power pumpkin blast.


Like I've JUST checked the manga and unless there's a raw that's since come out Budou hasn't reappeared at ALL. All that's happened is that he was shot by Mine and then he was knocked away and hasn't gotten up since. He might just be winded, maybe unconscious (though unlikely) and perhaps (I REALLY doubt it) dead. But I digress.

My main point is that all that's happened is that Mine killing Budou IS plausible because at the moment in the manga (which is eventually mirrored when she's fighting Budou alone in the anime) Mine's gotten an EXTREME boost. The manga focuses HEAVILY on that boost in the most recent chapter. Is it ENOUGH to kill him? That's not really something we can say for sure as of yet because we dont know how big this boost is.

If you say that there's NO WAY that Esdeath or Budou can be defeated by Mine, then it's because You think they are undefeatable because you're saying that - despite not knowing how big the boost Mine received is - the boost could be infinite and it would make no difference.

Anywayssssss... that asides I'm kinda disappointed with this episode :/ Not even Mine related but the Su vs Esdeath fight felt really ehhh, and there was too much exposition I think... too much explaining while fighting which felt really... blehh..

Additionally that scene for Lubbock was so meager it REALLY disappointed me, and for the Mine death I WILL say I'm annoyed with how it was handled. Yes Tatsumi, PUT Mine down even though she's dying. At least she can die dramatically I guess. It really makes no sense for you to DO so if you DON'T want them to die but... eh... I'm glad she died afterwards but it could have been handled WAY better...

The only thing wrong about the anime compared to the manga is killing off characters FAR too quicky.


Last episode, Raba died.
This episode, Susanoo (prob will die) and Mein Died
Next episode, either Kurome or Akame will die

Jesus man.


On a side note, it's pissing me of that its a Gecko ending, meaning the manga is spoiled for all of us lol.

Wait a minute is Mine was really dead? She could just pass out (Like Aldnoah.Zero) right? I will not believe it until I saw her grave.
On seriousness there should be an alternate ending if something that this White Fox IDIOT did something that doesn't happen in the manga.
