Their game was so Among Us XD

This time you could tell it was Irene by that voice but that time when she disguised as the Prince the voice was too deep that it seemed like she was voiced by another seiyuu.

I like how this episode focused more on Albert. In season 1 he had very little screen time.

Irene hid those papers in quite an exposed area, the drawer wasn't even locked. I thought she would hide it in a more clever way. If it was taped somewhere around her body then she would just ran from the house without having to search for it then Sherlock would've been in a pinch.

Still looking perfect even with that fold in the cheek, this is when it makes you wanna be an anime character.

No wonder James Moriarty want Irene on their side - she literally has a tried and tested road map to their goal. They've not only left Irene with no choice but to work with them but caught left Sherlock with no choice but to let Irene give them the plans. They make being criminally geniuses to a whole new level!

Going to be a great season I reckon.

Lots of intrigue and mystery still to come.

Considering in the original she just stole a photograph and not documents that could have you executed to keep the secret, the change is understandable. On top of that, even the most cunning will find themselves having to ask for help in dire circumstances. Finally, this is just the beginning for her.

It doesn't matter if it's a document or the photos, their value was same referenced by the fact that 'disastrous for British Empire' was used for both of them. Both could have got you executed. Originally the photo was an assurance that King wouldn't have gotten her killed since attempts at robberies and burglaries had already been made at her before approaching Holmes. I don't know how will they redeem the side character from such a weak start - but I suppose they had to make her helpless in order to further the rivalry between Holmes and Moriarty, but I would've preferred if they took some other direction with her which may've given her a similar vibe as novel like maybe outsmarting them both?

The photograph was claimed to be disastrous for the Bohemian Empire, if only because it'd make the King look bad, it was embarrassment that had him seek out Holmes and have him retrieve the photograph. The document pretty much said "England engineered the French Revolution and are the reason so many hundreds of thousands of people are dead". Imagine if that got out, especially to any countries with tense relations to England, especially France and the United States of America, and how that would result - quite possibly war. That's way more than why the King was wanting the photo back.

By the way, helpless? This is the woman who jumped into the sewage canal to save a girl she didn't even know. Who had built herself up over the years and gave others, who were unfortunate enough to not be of a higher societal class, a chance to get ahead when they'd normally be knocked down just for their birth.

Oh, believe me, you'll like what happens next. This isn't the last of this character! Everything that is happening is building up to a great future, and no, it's not just about rivalry between Sherlock and William.

I was worried about Sherlock after ep 1. But here we go... Glad they didn’t chopped fire scene.

Now you think about, there isn’t any Sherlock adaptation, I mean pure sherlocian 😭😭😭

Though japan has Their sherlock in Detective Conan. But Sherlock and watson 😭😭😭

Fall 2022 is the most Unforgettable anime season of all time

Definitely redeemed itself from the first episode. I knew that there was no way Sherlock, the genius detective, would be fooled by Irene. My only remaining question now is how he did not see through her disguise as the King of Bohemia... Anyways, loved the masquerade ball theme, and can't wait for next week's episode!

On a side note, doesn't Albert look way more sinister than he did in the first season? If I recall correctly, this is the first time he orchestrated a murder all by himself.

I think a simple house searching while she was outside would have been sufficient considering the place she hid the documents in but whatever.

it's holmes style haha you would expect him to go this far. Searching is boring, why don't we blow up the entire room and make her search it for us? XD

We're getting some political games in here, pretty interesting. Sherlock blowing up his own apartment is hilarious. How Ms. Hudson even agreed to this?

Overall I loved this episode
5/5

Amazing episode. Seeing James 'The Lord of Crime' planning all that for the sake of proving his point. Also, Sherlock doing that act of blowing up his room to get the half-truth out of Irene was good. I'm assuming they're gonna go back to Sherlock vs Moriarty now.

Irene's negotation with Albert went quite good I guess. She got an offer to ''work'' with the Lord of Crimes probably. And ofcourse, Holmes knew that there was something fishy about Irene. Holmes is a really nice character, he even blew his house up just to uncover the truth about Irene. Not everyone can do that/ or willing to go that far..
The Moriarty Brothers are on the case too, they can't back down anymore after learning the truth. Quite an interesting ep.

This episode was well done.
Also I find hilarious that Sherlock blew up the whole second floor just to trick Irene and get those files.

Well I kind of thought at first how on earth Sherlock was tricked by a woman? Lol. But I thought Irene was a villain but she has the same motivation as the Moriarty bois. I enjoyed the Masquerade party tho Albert looks so damn hot.

Can't believe Sherlock had Ms. Hudson's apartment exploded lol

This is getting really good!

Albert was truly enjoying himself during that ball, uh. Good to know the Moriarty are still magnets of awful rich people.

Meanwhile, the rest of the party can continue because there's no reason to miss the chance to throw your best dance move.

The moment they show Ms. Hudson all calm after the explosion I just knew it was a trick from Sherlock but I would love to see how he conviced her.

Sherlock truly is outrageous for blowing up the second floor just to get the documents, luckily he got the 300 pounds from last episode to pay ms Hudson (if that'll be enough).

Also nice seeing Albert taking part as he hasn't done much since the murder of his family.

Review en Español and English

Buen episodio, interesante evento realizo albert para decirle todo el plan que estan armando para cambiar la nacion, sherlock a veces tiene ideas muy locas para descubrir algo jajaja. Me pregunto si la dejar vivir a Adler despues de que entregue los documentos, por que despues de eso ya no es mas util

Good episode, interesting event that Albert did to tell him the whole plan they are putting together to change the nation, Sherlock sometimes has very crazy ideas to discover something hahaha. I wonder if he should let Adler live after he delivers the documents, because after that he is no longer useful

It's bloody insane that they would continue that ball when a man just died in front of them. That level of self-centeredness is insane.

Another amazing episode. I saw right through Sherlocks ploy to get Irene to reveal where she held left the documents. The ball was done very well I really liked the conversation between Albert and Irene and how confident he was in revealing himself to her. This series has gotten better as it goes along, and I am liking this season better than season 1.
