Ooh yes, the fifth pillar Inca is here! A rather intimidating character despite her size imo.

And honestly, this episode really got heated up with the amount of chaos revolving her character. Shes's not a pushover to deal with. A load of action this episode, not bad.

Best girl Inca has arrived, been waiting a long time to see my baby on the screen.

Beginning of Shinra v Charon was crazy hype, man David production just can’t miss. Amazing production quality. Can’t wait for the conclusion next week.

Fire Force violence is the one thing I can't get use to it, you can't make a likeable villain if villain have a real intention to kill people, innocent people.

Pretty good episode.

I feel sorry for the guy that was killed by Charon.

So we see the new girl, Inca, from the OP being introduced and she's the fifth pillar. Things are getting interesting.

Cool, what an episode this was!

5th pillar right off the bat following last week's cluster-episode, this season is absolutely off with a bang literally. Solid introduction and her abilities highly intriguing in addition. Certainly living up to the much-awaited 5th pillar, I suppose.

Evangelist-cult brawn demonstrating a bit of his power too, that was just bloody awesome! Walking and the fire explosions following suit all tied up with the exhilarating production values. A quick gore insight too.

Interesting development for certain and it'll be interesting to see how the 8th will handle this. Nice to see one of Obi-san's acquaintance at the start by the way, I wonder if we'll be seeing more of the behind-the-scenes of this Fire Force soon.

Another week and one more episode of Enen No shouboutai...

And oh man, what a episode, with the arriving of our Fifth Pillar: Inca and her particular personality (double moral where).
Also, pretty cool all the bloody violence in the episode, is not as usual but I liked it (Well done David Productions, well done...)

Really interesting episode and just waiting for next one!

Being a fire thief seems like a lucrative profession, in more than one way for a nutjob like Inca. She got some very bad traits, but she's cute. Gotta see how her life and ways will change from here.

Ahhh such an awesome episode! That was a cool af fight scene between Charon & Shinra and I can't wait to see more of it next week! Inca seems a little unstable so she'd definitely be dangerous with the Evangelist but I don't know how Company 8 are gonna deal with her!

That was pretty damn brutal and unexpeted as well! Charon is crazy strong, can't wait to see the fight continue next week!

So Inca is the 5th pillar and the new girl in this episode. She got an interesting power, both sensing heat and being able to predict fires. She's cute though, won't be surprised if she will get plenty of fan service as well.

Production was great as usual! Amazing stuff!!

Interesting character introduced. I like the resemblance they created between inca and shinra. Both getting excited about danger and smiling awkwardly.
Hopefully we'll be getting better action sequences in the next episode.
As for inca's ability, it's soo Interesting. She already had ability to detect any kind of fire before they set off and now she has gained ignition too as charon said. Hoping to see kore of it in the next ep.

The battle for the fifth pillar is here! Inca seems like a very interesting character who isn't willing to go with the special fire force or the evangelist. I'm excited to see who she ends up with.

So a 5th Pillar named Inca has arrived, oh shit ain't just a full time joskausei, she also a part-time yankee who saves people but for a price , the question now is, whose side is she gonna be with, them baddies the Evangelist or them good guys the Special Fire Force?

Looks like the pillars have now become the key in the war between the two sides. The first Pillar though sure was quite the malicious foe. So the new adolla burst user is a schoolgirl and the leader of a group of thieves huh. The power to smell when a fire will start sure is quite handy. But if anything Inca is an extreme opportunist. It sure is uncanny seeing her predict exactly where the fire's will be though. Maki's Owl Eyes sure is quite the impressive tool. Despite the threat posed by Charon Inca's timely manifestation of her offensive and sensory abilities sure served to even the odds. Overall a solid ep that served well to showcase the white clads next moves and thus kick start the next phase in the war while also providing an excellent stage to introduce the character of Inca. Curious to see how the fight between Shinra and Charon will play out next week.

Must say that I don't share the general enthusiasm for Inca. Let's see if she becomes a bit more agreeable in the next couple of episodes.

A flaming fire episode can't wait for the next episode.

Inca's ability is so cool she could predict and manipulate flames easily she would bne a valuable assest to the Fire Force if they manage to recruit her but she seems like uncooperative.

Another good Fire Force episode
Charon is fucking intense- I wasn't expecting him to just kill Sancho
Inca, the Fifth Pillar, has arrived- she is a very valuable asset with her ability to predict and now create fires.
From her adrenaline junkie personality, she is going to be hard to recruit and handle which can make her dangerous
Can't wait for next week episode

Good stuffz :)
I really like Inca as a character because she has an unexpected evil side to her.
I also like the fact that she is like ''Tf do these firemen and white clads want me for''
Shinra vs Charon is pretty hype.

I'm also really hyped to see some old faces reappear in episode 4. Like Karim and Tooru.

As far as I can remember, I don't recall Fire Force ever showing anything as graphic as Charon killing that one dude that was helping Inca with her little schemes. That was a welcome surprise that caught me off guard.

Inca seems like an interesting character so far, and the action toward the end of the episode was great. Looking forward to more of that next week.

this season has really picked up in the scale from season one, instantly liked Inca from the OP glad to see she is far more interesting than one off note trope girl is kinda crazy but hanging on the side of not good nor evil just somewhat selfish for her own desires of danger and looks like she got it.

that dude's death really caught me off guard fire force hasn't shown anything that brutal even if i figure'd he was gonna die just not like that geez

also need to talk about the sound design everything related to the Adolla Burst /pillars has really damn good creepy sounds

Inca's power is cool as fuck but, right now I can't tell if she's good or bad as Shinra said and holy shit Charon is a badass, he's probably going to be one of those antagonists that you just can't hate.

pretty interesting episode, 5th pillar time huh? Ah poor inca, thrown straight into the deep end. Pretty cool abilities she has though, i guess her basic one was her ability to detect fire through those threads? And after her adolla burst activated she could basically see all sources of heat (like a built in thermal optic) and cause ignitions? Bit confused on her ignition ability, is it basically just causing a burst of fire were she wants?
Damn, evangalist really upped there fucking game since last season. What an absolute unit my god took Shinra's blows like they were a breeze of air, and fucking caved my guys chest in 10 folds. Surprised Shinra's still standing tbh, but i guess he's been through worse.
Next episodes fight is gonna be interesting, idk looks like Shinra isn't going to be able to do much, unless Inca decides to pick a side and help.

I don't know... personal preferences I guess but seeing Rekka setting kids on fire in season 1 was more brutal.

It seems someone stole Saber's clothes...

So... whoever possess an Adolla Burst can be considered a "Hashira" now?

Average episode once again. We have been introduced to another character who will eventually join the 8th... most likely. I still don't know what to think about this Inca girl but at this point, I just hope her personality doesn't get on my nerves in the long run. Her conveniently new found power is really cool tho.

On the other hand, the reason to justify the upcoming confrontation felt kinda lazy in my opinion. Especially since the Evangelist's group could have easily avoided it if only the blonde Hashira would have kept her mouth shut but well.
Anyways, at least it seems we will see some awesome fights next week and in that regard, I want to see what this Charon dude is capable of. He's so flamboyant with his moves and that fire walk was so unnecessarily badass but I must admit that I'm finding his intensity rather entertaining so far.

What an awesome action packed episode. Inca makes a great character. Her abilities are fantastically overpowered and she seems indifferent to both the evangelists and the fireforce. I am really looking forward to the next episode.

Gorilla-san is an absolute badass. I wonder why he wasn't the trump card of the evangelists during last season's finale.

Great episode as always
so the Fifth pillar, Inca has born.
The battle between Fireforce and Evangelist is to get Inca on their side eh..
Hope Inca will join the fire force. but, I guess it's not that easy to see that she likes some chaotic stuff. imo her chara in this episode is pretty much suitable for being a bad guy, tho.
Can't wait for next ep
