The comedic parts are boring as usual. That part when Shinra was justifying the naming sense of his new move was terrible and my eyes rolled so far back my head, I almost witnessed my brain shrivel up from how lame that was.

For some reason the comedic parts in the manga work well, I don't laugh out loud while reading the manga but it just works better somehow. I think the funnier parts involve Maki being mistaken for a gorilla cyclops and the other girls like Iris and Tamaki and occasionally Hinawa and Oubi.

In this episode, Hinawa's fight scenes stood out the most. Looking forward to seeing Lisa/Feeler fight against Oubi and Vulcan.

Lieutenant Hinawa faces Arrow, one of the most badass battles ever since the fight between Maki and Flail. Even though he's at an disadvantage with guns instead of arrows, his never-die spirit gives him the edge over her.

But for Arthur to make his sudden entrance, his "samurai-knight" ego, the training with Benimaru proving useful. Comedy still bland...

And then the side of Vulcan and Captain Obi, the betrayal Captain Dr. Giovanni with Lisa. How will Vulcan attempt to resolve this?

It’s weird how Lisa and Vulcan are the characters I like the most in the series despite they've appeared only few episode ago. Benimaru is good but nothing I really like at the end, but this two seems promising, hopefully everything will go in a good way.

This was an intense episode. Great to see that the training worked out for Arthur. Lisa is honestly one of the creepiest characters I've seen in anime. But Giovanni I'd more creepier and weird. Really want to see his face though.

They keep hyping up this Evangelist dude/girl, just show him/her already. Probably going to be a big twist.
The lieutenant has made his biggest impression so far this arc, a damn beast, that's what he and the rest of the 8th are.

How the hell does this anime's rating keep dropping when the episodes get better? There are so many inferior anime that are above, and some strange hate falls on fire force, damn it

Hinawa is a beast, Arthur is funny as always and Vulcan .. he knows how to make compliment xd



Yeah i'm so sad about that

as a manga reader i expected it to be more popular than that

I mean why kimetsu no yuba earned that much popularity while fire force didn't!!!

I read them both and there is no that much difference....

I mean yeah kimitsu is better but still fire force deseve more at least

Out of curiousity i went to check something and anime like: Dumbbell Nan Kilo Moteru has like 0,3% less rate than fire force so this means that that trash is slightly worst than fire force at this point according to the ratings.

Even freaking Fate/Grand Order: Zettai Majuu Sensen Babylonia has better rankings than fire force.

WTF and fire force keeps dropping for some reason.

woof seeing the Lieutenant in action definitely was something, his marksman ship show down with arrow was a bad ass fight. Still did i miss a episode, or did no one tell me how the Lieutenant actually got his abilities to manipulate the combustion in gunpowder??

It's also good to see Arthur's training and practice come into play and not throwing away the potential. Idk about everyone else but the color palate of only gray from the smoke and the luminous blue strips on Arthur really helped to set the scene and making Arthur's focus like state way cooler

maki's reunion with sister iris and tamaki was hella wholesome xd

Ok, now that was epic.

Two sharp shooters go toe to toe.

Hinawa handled it pretty well against Arrow. He overcame troubling odds and utilized his opponents speciality.

Arthur showed up just in time to prevent Hinawa from being skewered into a shiskebab.

Takehisa’s battle wasn´t bad, and Arthur improved something, less bad, he actually learned something from Benimaru. Licht is still suspicious. You Giovanni bastard, what you did to her, you deserve Obi’s hammer of justice, and Lisa to be saved, she obviously isn’t in that side.

Hinawa's fight was amazing and the highlight of the episode, he showed himself to be a real badass. Arthur's whole Samurai-Knight/Knight-Samurai part was cringey but it's good to know that at least he learned something from Benimaru. The comedy is still so bland. Shinra's explanation of the naming part just made me roll my eyes so hard.

Hinawa was the MAN in this ep. I love smart and strategic fighter.

Glad to see Arthur serious and finally using his noggin', but I wanted to see some death-defying sh** and less comedic relief.

On to the next episode and Capt. Obi.

Its pretty interesting saw Shinra and Arthur development from the previous training. It worked out, as expected. Also, damn. The battle between the two snipers. So thrilling, so amazing, so stunning. But in the end, ofc a gun, a super hand cannon glassman, must be won against the traditional fire arrows. Its basic. Its understandable.

All the buildup is going to waste over the course of the last 2 episodes. The evangelists seem less and less threatening and even feared senior members are easily defeated. All by the 8th alone. I mean it was not like they even had to discuss this with all commanders some episodes ago...

Since this is now going down the classic shonen road for sure, I expect a short spike in power with Giovanni and especially Sho, which are then either defeated for good or have to give up and rebuild for another attempt of changing the world.

They don't have to go full Akame ga Kill but at least make the weight of decisions be felt at least a little bit. This became shonen average again really quickly.

I still can't get over the fact that company 8 is doing this all these by themselves. Imagine if the full might of the special fire force were to rain down on these fucking cultists, it would've been done in two episodes but no of course it can't be that easy. Reading the eoisode titles I'm guesing this whole thing would last till the last episode.

apparently using shotgun with controlled bullet is the best option to fight unknown sniper. on top of that, lets use it like a sniper rifle and aim. i'm sure the recoil is fine
if you want good story, read novel. if you want good graphic, read manga. anime is beyond that.

Hinawa had his intense combat, I found it excellent how he used his pyrokinesis against an enemy that uses long range attacks.
The clash of ideals between Arrow and Hinawa also caught my attention, but this intensifies with the powerful explosions generated by the attacks of both, but finally Hinawa uses the flames of Arrow's fire to be able to cause an explosion that ends up defeating her, but the other two evangelists appear to attack the wounded man.
The appearance of Arthur was more than welcome and also served to obtain his revenge against Mirage, the training that Benimaru and Konro gave the Samurai-knight is appreciated, this gave Arthur the victory.
On the other hand, the girls regroup and Obi and Vulcan also meet enemies on their way and the worst one, Giovanni and Lisa, the fun of this is that Lisa tries to be hostile towards Vulcan, but he praises her for the new outfit, but unfortunately Giovanni's presence is more intimidating and Lisa shows the appearance of her pyrokinesis.

Anyway, the episode had a spectacular battle, Hinawa was so bad ass with his powerfull fire power and speed control, now I just want to see how Obi will beat Giovanni and see if Lisa returns with Vulcan or not.

Hinawa was Badass! as usual. Hinawa's shootout with Arrow was the best part, crazy to think as long as he got replacement barrels and his rifle doeesn't break he's practically a mortar.

Aw, such a shame that cutie Arrow was defeated already. I was hoping she'd be more powerful than that.

Vulcan has nice taste. I totally agree that Lisa looks really sexy in that white clad outfit. As for Giovanni, he looks cool. I hope he ain't a push-over like the rest of the white clads so far. lol

Wooooo Hinawa & Arthur!!!!!!! Arthur’s training with Company 7 really paid off♡ I loved seeing how he was so focused & in control, he’s always been in control but more so now, but of course never forgetting his chuunibyou roots trolllolllll

AND CAN WE TALK ABOUT VULCAN ♡__________♡

Great fighting episode, the duel between Arrow and the lieutnant was interesting. And then of course Arthur with his ridiculous inner monologues, but badass moments nonetheless. Now the literal hottie Lisa is back and as expected she will become one of the good guys again after getting defeat together with her sensei.

My man Hinawa is out here fighting an Arrow chick with guns. Let's go! His ability to accelerate the bullet in the barrel essentially turns any conventional guns into railguns, but the since he could accelerate the bullet mid-air even further, it's beyond that. An explosive fire arrow has no chance against a good ol' rifle. Though with all that being said, Hinawa is pretty outmatched by his juniors though, as he said he simply doesn't know how to go beyond his limits. That puts him in a risk if he ever came face to face with someone even stronger than Arrow.

Arthur's arrival is pretty much the cleanup part of the fight, now with enhanced senses, he doesn't even need to bother wasting his energy flailing his sword around to extinguish the fake mirage. As long as the copy is just an illusion instead of it being real clones, all he needs to do is wait and strike, easily defeating this pathetic fool.

Vulcan complimenting Lisa's appearance in this situation is pretty much a sigma grindset.

Good to see that bitchy Arrow finally bite the dust, though given that was for real. Also they're still going with those same Arthur jokes, getting old at this point tbh.

And yeah I know what's gonna happen with Lisa, I just know.

The fight of Hinawa against Arrow was pretty badass. Using white and black imagery to highlight the colors of their eyes as they prepare to attack was one of the best artistic choices of the anime. Arthur's fight was nice I guess, not much of a fight but it was nice he used the lessons he took from Benimaru to defeat his opponent.
