THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
About time Vorona is getting more screen time this season even though it's not much still.

Ah, Shrina got involved in some complicated affairs with Kujiragi.
The chase scene was pretty epic imo. Bet Celty is furious at what she saw. Really neat action. I think this may be one of my favorite episode of the season so far. Kujiragi confirmed as spiderwoman with those leaping skills Also really cool to see Chikage in action imo.

Celty feeling danger when original Saika lady appeared. As she expected, Saika lady took FukuJun's character away.

lol @ KajiKaji's character excited and in otaku mode.

Little boys came to OnoD's character for trouble, and he only shocked them, fortunately.

Mamo's character in trouble from the guy who calling himself a member of the group of main guy being very strong. It seems like womanizer guy saved them, except he "captured" Mamo's character.

Assassin lady is back to her assassin mission, and current mission is to carry FukuJun's character away. Seeing Celty in that form making her thinking about her feeling about OnoD's character.

Celty's "transportation" saw OnoD's character and just transported to bike so it can ask him help.

varona wasting too much screen time narrating her thoughts, this is one issue i have with the adaptation. its too obvious that the studio is trying to save some money with the static scenes and flashbacks. otherwise a good ep.

That kiss caught me by surprise....Really intense and epic episode (The scene after Celty left the house as hilarious btw lol)

Nonstop chaos in this episode alone between Kasane and Berserk Celty O_O I'm kinda surprised to see that Kasane actually held her off so well

The Varona stuff was nice....Seeing her reflect on herself and her life was great yet tragic considering that she realized that she changed for the better and liked being with Shizuo (I think she loves him.....The #2 OTP looks like it might go down HHHHNNNNNGGGGG

Now Shizuo and the best horse ever is about to join the chase and I can't wait to see him catch up to Varona and Kasane and most importantly Izaya

Holy crap this episode was intense, my favourite episode of Ketsu yet. It seemed like this went by so fast, start to end my eyes were glued to the screen.
I really hope Shinra's okay. He's getting hurt too much, don't want that to happen again.

That ending was so much fun XD Shizuo riding the Dullahan bike yelling IZAYAA!! Gotta love it.

Really didn't expect Kasane to kiss Shinra and cut him with Saika in front of Celty after last week's cliffy. Celty's totally Yandere lol. Dat emotional explosion!

Kasane's Saika spiderman abilities are pretty insane O_o

And Walker fanboying was hilarious. He's truly beyond salvation lol

Those kids were so stupid provoking Shizuo. How retarded can u be...

And man I'm loving Rocchi more and more. Him kicking Izumii and running away with Kida was great.

Loved the Varona scenes too. She's so damn pretty <3 And the art for her faces in particular was even better than usual imo.

I didn't expect them to start of with the kiss-stab scene right away. Crap, that caught me off guard. Too intense.

"To have something you value over destruction and hate; I must say, I find myself jealous"
(Kujiragi jealousy is not a reason for what you did and are about to do but ok. ily so it's fine.)

Walker lmao. He might be disappointed once he finds out Kujiragi is 3D for real but on the plus side, she gets along with Erika from cosplay.

Bicycle!Shooter: Shizuo approves of legal riding.

Vorona regreting leaving her daily life with Shizuo and Tom... AS SHE SHOULD.

KidaRocchi and AnriSaki- almost there

And the ending- that blob thing in the background is actually Celty getting held up by Kujiragi? Neat!

One of the best episodes, but I'm kinda lost on why Kasane has kidnapped Shinra or what made Celty choose Shizuo of all people (even though he is awesome) to help her out. Still, looks like I was right about Kasane being the real villain rather than Izaya (though Izana has done a lot of things to get us where we are now).

lol this episode turned out just like I predicted.

poor celty, I was liking kasane but now that she messed with celty no way.
she just needs to get her head back and she will show them all.

and kidas boyfriend saves him because he can't hold his own, beautiful.

shizuo really is a nice guy, he could have demolished all those brats but he held back.

we need izaya and mikado back to redeem the show hopefully next episode they will appear.

It was nice to see Vorona share her thoughts on the events so far, considering we haven't seen much of her in the past episodes. I didn't know she took on a job for Kasane, either.

Izumii is an asshole, but he's a funny, hammy asshole, and that made his showdown with Kida and Chikage really entertaining to watch. He reminds me of Ladd from Baccano!.

Celty turning into a black mist thing was really cool. Her love for Shinra really is charming and sweet, and it's one of my favorite things about DRRR.

Also, I'm curious about Anri/Saki interaction next week.

Overall, it was a great episode.

Celty didn't choose Shizuo to help her out. At this point, Celty is a giant blob that is only thinking of how to get Shinra back. Shooter is the one who chose Shizuo probably because of how close he is to Celty and, of course, his inhuman strength. I can't answer why Kasane kidnapped Shinra but it is 100% her own intention (Vorona said it was Kasane's personal request).

That was an awesome episode. Loved the fact that Vorona got some screen time. I guess she really does like Shizuo. Vorona X Shizuo does have a chance, maybe. XD . Why is Kasane after Celty? It is obvious that she kissed Shinra to get a reaction out of Celty and it worked. I don't think Shinra is gonna fall completely under Saika's control. That is just the feeling I'm getting.

As always, Shizuo is the best part of this episode. He could've destroyed those annoying kids but being the nice guy he is, he didn't. Also, good job Shooter. You picked the right man for the job. Shizuo still looks badass riding a cycle. XD

Oh man that was definitely one of the best episodes I don't understand why you wouldn't give it a 5. Actually made me bump the overall rating to 10.

First Chikage was amazing at the beginning where he kicked the Dollars ass and saved Masaome. Also Aoba's big brother confusing/scaring Masaome by talking about Mikado was pretty interesting. But damn what happened to make that guy so strong, I know he still wasn't as strong as Chikage but still.

Kasane comes in and kisses Shinra right in front of Celty, that was such a shocking thing to see, and then seeing him getting cut by her saika. I don't know what Kasane is doing this for but it's gonna have an epic conclusion. Also I really liked that although Celty was furious and confused and unable to take in all the information her focus was saving Shinra rather then taking revenge.

I'm so glad that best girl Varona got more screentime this episode. Her thinking to herself just makes me like her more. She misses her everyday life in Ikebukoro but most importantly she misses SHIZUO-SENPAI. I really really hope they get together somehow to be honest that's all I really want from this anime.

Shizuo was pretty cool showing off his strength and scaring those kids. Seeing Shooter (Celty's horse) actually ask Shizuo to help it on it's own was really cool too. Damn I'd love a horse like that and Shizuo's grin whilst he was riding it was awesome. Then finally because a certain man has to be at least mentioned every episode Shizuo calles out Izaya's name blaming him for all of this.
inb4 Izaya vs Varona for Shizuo's heart

The episode was just really amazing overall and next episode 2nd best girl Saki is getting screentime and I'm really looking forward to it.

I love Shizuo's logic: "Something bad is happening, it must be that goddamned Izaya's fault!" I like how even in a situation like this, he still refused to ride the motorcycle because of his lack of a license. What a good guy lol.

Celty has gone completely crazy (which is understandable after what happened to Shinra) and things look like they're really heating up. This is getting exciting, can't wait for more. And Walker.....fucking Walker lmfao, he truly is beyond saving. He's a lost cause haha.

Solid episode. I don't love Varona, but I can admit that she's a decent character. Shizuo is great as usual; though also as usual he jumps to blaming Izaya for everything (which is mostly true, not always). Just a pet peeve of mine, nothing big. I do love Shizuo. He's adorable. I just love Izaya more. Sorry, not sorry.

There's so much going on. I was not expecting Kujiragi to do that. Interesting, I'd say. I can't say that I hate her. Did she ever mention the obstacles? Cause without Tsukumoya, it would just be Awakusu-kai and Izaya, right? I don't remember if that happened in the anime.

Walker made the episode for me. That was hilarious.

And did Shizuo just call Izaya "Izaya-san"? No way, right? Am I just hearing things?

Next episode looks like fun. I'm looking forward to it.

Any episode that feautures so much Shizuo is a welcome sight. His decisionmaking is impeccable. I loved how he disposed of that feisty kid.

Well, the episode started and shit went down quickly. Good episode, though I found Vorona a bit of a pain because it's hard to sympathize with her regretting losing her place when she couldn't wait 2 minutes for Shizuo.
And speaking of Shizuo, his scene with Celty's bike was fun.
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

WOW Kasane kissing Shinra and then stabbing him with Saika was so unexpected.
Celty going berserk and super pissed.
Kasane is doing pretty good against Celty. She is managing to hold her back.
Teenagers messing with Shizuo. Such a Bad Idea.
Celty's horse transforming into a bike for Shizuo. Looks like he is headed for Celty.
Love how Shizuo is blaming Izaya as always.

Woah, this episode was sure intense. Poor Celty, she was NTR'd and goes berserk against Kujiragi, who escape of her using her Spiderman abilities. Walker sure was excited to see her doing that xD

And Vorona was allied with Kujiragi to kidnap Shinra (who have been also cut by Saika). I hope she don't end as a bad guy by the ending of the season.

Chikage saves Kida's ass. That scene was cool, Chikage is cool in general.

And the final scene with Shizuo and Celty's horse was badass and funny at the same time. Is hilarious how he thinks that when something bad happens in Ikebukuro, is Izaya's fault xD

Probably the best episode of Ketsu so far imo- the wheels are spinning at full speed.

Loved Celty's reaction...don't touch her man, or she'll turn into a humongous mass of black shadow and chase your sorry ass around the whole city!!!!! Outlines that she's really just as crazy over Shinra as he is over her! Hoping Shinra's okay tho, is he completely overtaken by Saika??? His eyes were red, but he seemed semi-conscious at least.

Was nice to see Varona's internal strife also...my shipping goggles are on- could she possibly be falling for Shizuo??! And speaking of Shizuo, he stole the epi for me just with that bike scene alone- is he gonna play the hero & save the day?

A shame there was no Izaya or Kadota this time around, but next ep looks more hopeful on that front!
