This season sure loves to get into depth about the mechanics and technology of itself world.

I love how Yuuma went from casual to dead serious in just a moment against Yukari. Captain Yuba is no joke with his quickdraw revolver. I want to see him in action more.

I never thought Yukari was a girl. That was a surprising 'trap' I went through. As for Yuba. Oh man. He is like the guy 'Whoever draws first wins the match'. Like wow. Kazuma Satomi is the number 1 gunner which he is really oblivious too. But Yuba is his mentor which shows a lot. Not only that Yuba is not a joke it was already hinted that he is strong. However, he even stated that he would not want to fight Yuma himself. Which shows his analysis and intellect is not something to scoff at either. Yuba squad actually had another member until he quit to focus on college and school when it came to December. He was named Kanda with -san by Konami. So Yuba's squad rank was dropped because Kanda left. Which shows they must've been strong to begin with until their most valued member or so that was irreplaceable left. Anyways I am so excited to see the next and final B-rank wars. This seems very exciting but also pressuring because Yuma and Osamu finds out how strong Yuba and Ninioimya are. I mean Ninomiya was already strong to begin with. But Yuba shows otherwise. Between the two by Kazuma Satomi himself Ninomiya is stronger than Yuba, but depending on the environment terrain Yuba has a chance.

So it's a tomboyish girl, why not, anyway it's kinda fun to see that mix with Kuga being the senpai, but damn Yuba at the end was tough, it's full hype for the next match then xD

I would have liked the last round of the B-rank wars to start at the end of the episode, but I guess we will have to wait one more until then. This episode was fun though. We see Kuga school Yukari, a girl that he thought was a boy at first, only to then get humiliated by her commander, Yuga, in seconds. Seeing that, Kuga will need to come up with some way to beat the quick draw king. The battle should be really entertaining with all of these powerhouses in the same arena. Kuga's trick with the scorpion underground though was very cool. he keeps coming up with innovative techniques, so hopefully he can come up with a couple more for the final battle. He may very well need it.

Good episode as usual, though it's one of the weaker ones of this season imo.

That's okay though, set up is just as important as payoff!

Yup! I'm sure 3 will be plenty, though tbf I haven't read the manga so I could be mistaken.

Scorpion from underground!?!?!?! Wow, kuga is really creative. And Yaba-san is quite something as well. That's why I really like watching WT because of it's wide range of interesting and amazing characters. Can't wait for the final round!

Technically Mole Claw already is scorpion from underground (see Kuga vs Murakami from S1). The creative part about Kuga's new technique is that it combines 2 scorpions underground to extend its range. Like he said, it's essentially Mantis but underground.

Very good VA choices, especially Yuba.

My guess is that Toei held back the animation money this season because season 2 didn't pop even with the nicer animation and that hit song. That makes more sense to me than just giving a lower budget to season 3 just because the fights of season 3 aren't as flashy for the most part. Either way, I'm happy they brought back season 2 level animation for Yuga getting curb stomped.

Last season did a lot with three episodes. But those episodes were after all the set up and exposition episodes were already shown. I don't think they can do the B rank war finale in 3 eps. It seems more likely they will end season 2 with the start of the final match.

The number 1 gunner having a relaxed demeanor compared to all the other monsters in Border is refreshing. I wish the story had him be that way in spite of his rank instead of just being oblivious. Hopefully at some point in the manga, we will get to see him show his chops.

Another setup episode. Looks like we’re 1/2 an episode or so away from the battle actually starting so I’m really waiting on that.

Good episode as usual.

But are they really going to show the next battle or at least complete it? We have 3 more episodes and I think there is like 2-3 chapters to the actual start of the final rank battle. And the rank battle itself is really long...

I think I blinked too much
where are these people coming from?! Why am I getting confused with squads and who are in them?!
That's funny the #1 gunner takes inspiration from #1 shooter and a competent gunner and says they're unbeatable, but himself is #1 gunner without knowing hahahaha

It seems Yuma is bad at recognizing androgynous girls. He made the mistake yet again. When he said he said "shounen" (subtitled for me "my man") I knew he messed up, the fact it took him until got told she's a on'nanoka (girl) when this isn't the first time and she clearly had a reaction had me shook.

Yuma overpaid showing something no one had seen yet (I assumed the shuriken was going to attack her, but my thought was slightly different until his foot hit the ground) so got his change back. Shooters have more versatility while Gunners are more straight forward.
Honestly when #1 gunner was talking, all I could think about was Chika 1v1 #1 gunner, I know Hyuse makes more sense, but would be so cool if Chika did it.
4/5, my brain was getting pretty lost ever since the fanatic came into the picture as I thought that was a 1-man squad.
