So the commander can kick vampire asses too huh...

The action of the series always keeps me on the edge, love it.
Masahiro Sato is one of the best in the business at directing exciting action scenes, the last episode showed that as well.

4.5/5 Next episode seems to continue centering on the brothers' relationships, Seems like their relationship is the main focus of the show.

If there is an anime out there with better fight scenes, then please tell me about it. It made me speechless, the scene with the professor and later on when Mikhail appeared - this was just insane. The only anime that comes to my mind that has similar breath taking scenes is Shingeki no Kyoujin. I'm not the biggest fan of the series in general, but the fight scenes are also pretty dope.
Back to Sirius: 4.5? What's then 5 in your opinion? I'm so used to get disappointed by every show/tv series/book/manga, I learned to lower my expecations. I thought this episode would be pretty calm, the plot woudn't move forward, no action. I also thought we woudn't see the brothers together anymore (maybe at the end when they will fight each other in a very tragic way), because ... you know ... life isn't THAT good. Apperantly it is. I'm honestly thinking this is my all time favorite show. No joke. The joy I feel watching this is as insane as those fight scenes. On a sidenote: how the characters "bond" is written very well. I love Philip. The irish guy is the only one that's underdeveloped until now.

Amazing animation! I don't understand why Mashiro Sato isn't in the mal database; is he under a different name? Ughh cannot get enough of it.

Getting a lil crush on Mikhail slowly. Really how I wish I could binge this show.

Say what you want, but this series is constantly moving with no real filler and I absolutely respect that. We're still a bit far from the factions coalescing since it seems like Iba is still collecting information, but my guess is that after this battle, Ryouko will join the main cast (she's basically eating up screentime like main cast at this point anyway) in their fight abroad and Iba will chase after them too. At this point there's no chance that Yuliy and Phillip will be able to fight off Kershner and Mikhail so someone's gotta make a difference, whether it be Dorothea/Fallon, Professor, or Ryouko.

But at this point I don't imagine anyone dying since this series seems to be setting up for a 2-cour. Maybe Kershner will be wounded and Mikhail will leave on the pretense of trying to save his life so he could avoid a head-on battle with Yuliy, or maybe the police will show up because of the fire, but a death doesn't seem necessary or plot-advancing here so everyone should get out in one piece. Either way, looking forward to next week.

Im hyped for next episode, im really liking this anime, nice art and animations!

Please let Ryoko shine, she is really good character, and of course cute, want to see her development and Yuliy's development aswell!

Cant wait to see Yuliy resolving this fight, and of course his brother Mikhail is really badass.

That's my opinion so I'm speaking for myself only, but I've always thought and still think that one does not necessarily need romance to find a reason to live. The plot of the main finding himself a girl who will give him a reason to live is so boring and outdated. Why would Ryoko be the one to give him that reason? I have nothing against her being there, I have nothing against women warriors (I love them a lot in fact) but I have a thing against girls falling in love with the first mysterious guy they see and following him just because "damn that guy is so handsome and interesting".
Anyway, I say that but it's not that bad in this show, if it was it would've ruined my enjoyment but it didn't. I'm just writing this to explain why she's kind of annoying to me! The story is amazing and doesn't deserve me dropping it over that, it's still a 9/10 to me.

The best recommendation I could have given you is Stranger Mukou Hadan, being my favorite original anime action movie ever and having the same action director - Mashiro Sato. But you already saw that movie.
It's hard to recommend something so similar to Sirius the Jaeger's action other than stranger mukou hadan but give a shot to these:

Hellsing Ultimate - A gory vampire action, lots of blood and a horror themed show. The main character is very likable, and the action is very thrilling and exciting, it's not incredibly fast paced but give it a shot.

God Eater - Produced by Ufotable, it has incredible CG Visuals, and the show is pretty similar to Shingeki no kyojin. The soundtrack is incredible as well.

Vampire Hunter D (2000) - This movie has great fast-paced action scenes that you might really enjoy watching. And also focuses on vampire action. (You don't have to watch the 1985 movie before, but it's a great movie as well.
If you want more then contact me through pm or something.

Getting on topic...
It's not really expectation, but what I thought of this episode individually, I only think of the actual final score of the series when I finish it, I just find it completely meaningless if I rate beforehand.
5 is pretty much the episodes that I will remember for a long time.

I love this series a lot as well, out of this season it's my favorite together with Shoujo Kageki revue starlight with its brilliant animation, art direction, storyboard and use of the music genre.
Not getting too off topic again, I don't think this series is perfect, but it definitely has every asset to make it fun as it already is for me. I also like the soundtrack.
And yeah I think they are doing a pretty good job developing the characters as well, even though they're obviously centering on yuliy and his brother relationship.

Besides that, I don't know what to tell you about being disappointed with every show, I don't feel that often, and I don't even remember if I did. There are always things that disappointing but it never happened to me so drastically from what I comprehend from you. Open your mind, expect from an anime what there need to be expected from genre, staff involved, studio and such. I think that's the best way to enjoy an anime. Sirius the jaeger is in a good hands, so I doubt it will be on a different level than it has been, so maybe you have a new favorite :)

So basically you would want MC to end up with a boy ? His brother specifically.

I think Ryoko will only be part of that reason. Family, friends, a potential partner - all of them together are going to be the larger answer and this show is not focused on the romance. You can actually see it thus far with Yuliy spending a lot of screentime wrestling with his brother, understanding that his friends care about him to the point of giving up their own prejudices, etc. Ryoko is getting no more time spent on her than any of those other influences. I might have a problem too if this was a traditional romance where the whole reason for being is the "soulmate", but this is FAR from that. Yuliy still barely registers with her, and Ryoko isn't doing everything just for Yuliy. The scene with her defending the family has zero to do with Yuliy really. If this show had made that annoying cliched character you are thinking of, the first thing she would have done is abandon the family and looked for Yuliy just to "be with him". Surprisingly, in a very good way, the show is mildly complex when it comes to our main protagonists.
