| Big and bold via hologram. He probably wouldn't have done that face-to-face. Does Higan not understand that, you know... being a ninja is being kept a secret? Why is he so calm about Mike casually revealing everything about ninjas to the public? Whatever, man, there are more issues than that when it comes to this show. Then you have Joseph clowning on the ninjas... like, do you not realize that without them, Higan would have been wiped out by you and your AUZA goons... right?? This whole Gusoku Gear really ruined anything the show had going for it in terms of fighting, like I didn't come for mechs, I came for hand-to-hand combat... what the heck is this? At least something good came out of this episode with Mike and Emma being badasses. In most instances, I would be mad that they offscreened most of Higan and Big D's fight, but since it was a CG mech battle, maybe it was for the best. And yeah... there goes the only decent character in this show, all thanks to that Joseph prick. Emma and Mike had good chemistry too, so that's the saddest part... oh well, some character development is needed for Mike anyways, so woo-hoo. In the end, at least Emma didn't die alone, but surrounded by people who care for her, face mask or not. |
 |
| NOOO why did they have to let Emma die :( Feels like a step back in personal growth so now Higan's back in REVENGE mode |
| good thing the mecha fight was short and unimposing, the iron man suits really need to go Emma was my favorite character; it was clear that someone was gonna die soon, since the beginning of the episode I secretly hoped Mike would die instead of her though |
| Emma was the best thing about the whole series, and now she's gone.... :P I'm sorry, but the remaining three dudes don't have enough chemistry to carry the show. |
| "Genki is Life, Genki is Love" |
| Enma was the first in fall, sad! kekeke |
| This anime sure went downhill fast. The fights in this episode were really bad and everything else was just... kinda boring? |
 |
| This is one of the dumbest character deaths I have ever seen in anime. Ever since Emma saved Higan I have been wondering why she doesn't ever use her Iron Ninja suit(you know the one she was wearing ever since she was introduced and had her big fight in as well) and now I know if she continued wearing it there would be no way to kill her in a big dumb explosion. Even then it looked stupid because there were functioning Iron Ninja suits acting as meat shields. At this point, it feels like they didn't have any time to write a script and decided to just let chatGPT write the whole thing for them in a hurry and even the good 2D fight scenes that attracted me to this in the first place have been completely replaced by CGI ones. This series just keeps tumbling down a mountain with every single episode. |
| Getting a fade every single day is insane lol. I know bro probably tips his barber well though. Well after a fakeout death a few episodes ago, Emma dies for real this time. A shame, since she was a good character. Definitely feels like she didn't have to just stand there and take the explosion though. She's a ninja, she isn't fast enough to evade it? Even if not completely, at least enough to sustain some treatable injuries at worst. Well we're in the final stretch now, so let's see how the story wraps up. IzanaSolos said: Why is he so calm about Mike casually revealing everything about ninjas to the public? I would assume that if Higan succeeds in taking down the organization, the ninjas can move on from that life and live freely. At that point I imagine the public knowing about them won't matter much. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| blud really getting fresh fades on the daily. |
 |
| Quality of animation went down since he started being a robot. First few episodes were heaven in coordination and readability. This new CGI shit, not so much. |
| So Emma died for real this time and Big D went out in a blaze of glory after loosing to Higan despite Auza's interference. Really feel bad for Mike as it looks like he lost two daughters that were close to him. Yamaji and AUZA CEO Joseph are clearly not on the same page and Joseph is starting to desperate as his plans is starting to fall apart. It looks like Zai has his own Gusoku Gear which he'll be using now that its complete. |
 |
| I am waiting for the glasses enemy to get killed by the ninja leader lol. Yelling at him like that is like stepping on a dragons tail and these angry-type enemies... do not live long lol . I hope Zai will join Higan :/ but the show needs a final fight or something. Well it sucks they kill the one with a decent backstory. :( Sad episode |

| damn... thought that whole ep was just gonna be Predator-esque action schlock start to finish... damn... took me by surprise. sad! |
| They let Big D and Emma die in the same episode.....that stings man but they did both deaths so well. They treated Big D well. He went out like a boss. |
| I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon. |
| I went from being disappointed at the recent story developments (the mechs) to now actually hating all of what I'm watching. That was so dumb. The ninja suits have the capability of being turned into mini nukes? How does that work? I hated everything about this episode. The animation looks like ass now. Even the visuals that don't involve the mech suits looks comically bad. And the show lost a lot of its edge. I don't mind a little bit of comedy and feel good moments, but they've been leaning too heavily into it the last 2 episodes or so. Mike and the hacker were amusing for an episode or two, but now they're annoying. They tried to get it all back on track with Emma's death and Higan's promise at the end to destroy the clan, but it doesn't feel the same. Only three episodes left so no point in dropping it, but goddamn what a nosedive. |

| @poemofdevil no truer words were spoken, and by Kenshiro himself nonetheless I am a bit sad Emma died since it was the most interesting character in the entire show. But as you said, really not much point in dropping it, we must finish it, rate it 4-6/10 and forget it ever existed |
| this is bullshit emma died now and the animation is so weak now too |
| Don't worry, I was sure Emma died before too while fighting against that pervert ninja. She will appear next episode again like nothing happened lol. |
| RIP Emma. Her death felt a bit silly after all the expertise she's shown so far. And yeah, the animation quality declined some |

| Emma... My ship for her and Higan just caught fire and crumbled into the sea. |

| Could've gotten a kill with a headshot but went for the chest; strong plot armor. Guess there'll be some more action coming up. |
| . |
| Wow...way too sad. A good character deserves a good death and this was Emma's. So sad to see her go. |
 |
| very big oh dear. rip one of the like 3 good characters in the show |

| How could a fully trained ninja like Emma not run from that explosion? |

| Rest in power Emma |

@MickeyMinaj Yup, best and most fully realized character in the show, IMO. Her death got me, since she was my favorite character.
| @DangerMouseDM One of the only few female characters I've liked in a while. Her potential was well utilized till the end, still not over it |
| DAMN they really made the Stylish guy explode... so it's really the end for Emma then... RIP :( |
