| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Damn, that was a thing of beauty, a rather brutal bloody beauty. Loved the bits of action especially in the last few episodes. "Kill"? I think it's like kill or be killed. But if you face against Nicholas, it's like a death wish. Loved the way the OSt is done as well with characterization. Gangsta continuously shows itself as one of the best series of the season.  |

| This show has a lot of good stuff going on, but every episode just feels so lifeless, and this one was no exception. Still, the content is good enough on its own, but some energy could make this so much better. |
| I thought Worick was only good at fighting. Didn't quite figure him to have such an incredible memory. Wonder if that has some sort of drawbacks on him. Nice to see bits of his recollection as a kid with Nicolas. Looks like they didn't exactly have a pleasant past. That short Twilight guy sure is something. Well, considering he holds the same tag as Nic (A/0), the mass slaughtering was hardly a surprise. Pretty hyped for the blade-battle between them next week. Decent episode. Alex seems to be going through some traumatic experience. Barry's sudden bloody appearance was a bit disturbing though. |
 |
| I got $300 on Nic. Who bettin. |
 |
| So basically that bob marley kid is as strong as Nic? that's lame lol I need more than 12 eps of that anime |
| When I'm fucked up that's the real me |

| Absolutely incredible episode. I am loving this anime and have it for anime of the year. |

| man, they're doing a great job with this series! so far my favorite anime of the season <3 |
| :3 |
| Damn! Got the chillz at the end of the ep. Friggin EPIC!! Doug vs Nic build up was awesome! Nic's grin is so damn CRAZY BA :D Nice to see some parts of Nic and Worrick's flashbacks. I guess Nic killed Worrick's dad because he was an asshole? Worrick's memory is insane :O I liked how they added some explanation to the Celebre and Twilights during his classes. Nic and Worrick's beginning of friendship was really sweet. Hit him in the face just to see him smiling like that :) Danny is one hell of a guy XD I feel bad for Alex still hallucinating :( I am HYPE!! |
 |
| The episode was a little uneventful but it's not like it was bad though, the shows still going on strong! :D |
| By far the best episode, i was thrilled with this. This is really good storytelling right here with the bits of their past. Seems like Worick and Nicholas had it rough in the past. That dreadlock guy is quite dangerous, he has the same dogtag rating than Nicholas. Also that head slice was great. D: It was mentioned that the lifespan of Twilights are shorter. I'm worried for Nic. |

| This was a good episode. We all know Nic is gonna slay that kid, but I'm still excited for their fight next week. And it was nice to see a little more of Worick's past with Nic. Also, I felt bad for Alex when she was hallucinating |
| 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. |
| So now the real plot begins. |
 |
| Nico Nico Nii~ In all seriousness this anime is really starting to bore me. I have to force myself to not start playing with my phone or something instead of focusing danieltortoisee said: Basically this. It's like "fighting on the backstreets - the animation". So hard to really care about anyoneThis show has a lot of good stuff going on, but every episode just feels so lifeless, and this one was no exception. Still, the content is good enough on its own, but some energy could make this so much better. |
  |
| Who is gonna make it out alive? Man I just hope Nicolas makes it out with no injuries... I got my money on nico too!!! Alex don't leave D; I was starting to like you too.. |
[center] *>.>[Spoiler][/spoiler]<.<* [center] |
| I don't know what a Twilight is, can't remember if there was any explanation. Was there any? Or it just wasn't explained yet? Amazing OST when Nico attacked that kid. As said before, Gangsta is one of the very best animes of the season. I want to know more about the boys' past. Seems like a good story. |
 If Evangelion were Rokka no Yuusha the seventh would be Shinji. |
| That cliffhanger was so fucking evil :( I want the next episode NOW I'm really loving the characterization that our main cast is getting, Alex having psychological trauma about her pimp and fearing for her life caught me by surprise but what really shocked me is what Worrick did Him being able to memorize anything is pretty badass but the way his eyes like glowed makes me feel like he has some special ability or something O_O I really enjoyed the flashbacks about he and Nicholas' pasts as well as the explanation behind this whole Twilight thing Last but not least, the uncensored action bits were too great.....10/10 for that alone....This kid A/O is pretty freaking Impressive as well as Mr Munroe and that while haired guy so I'm beyond hype to see the big showdown next week My money is on big man Nicholas =P |
| Kinda slow but decent backstory about the drug that Nico uses and how they both met. Alex having second thoughts about sticking around, but wouldn't blame her lol |
| Daniel Monroe is someone you should look out for. |
 All credit goes to Sacred. |
| MY BET WILL BE OVER 9000 FOR NICO. |
 |
| Delico's finally shown. Episode dwells on brief backstory on Worick and Nic, and I'm liking the bgm in those flashbacks. |
 |
| more backstory, dat cliffhanger good episode so the woman in bad condition nic visited is probably veronica |
| Next episode should be interesting,A/0 vs A/0. |
| This ep was beyond badass |
on 
| Best series of 2015 |
  |
| Another great episode. Damn, it had to end right there. I wanted to see Nicolas beating that little one down. Also, that memory of Worick is quite amazing. |
  |
| God damn Nico, that entrance was badass |
| Hi there |
| Nooooooooo, now I'm gonna have to wait another week for an episode ;_; More back story on the pair and a dangerous new enemy. Looking forward to the A/0 vs A/0 action next episode. |
 |
| Damn, that guy got his head cut off, really cool action this episode. Finally some info about those 2. Their past seems interesting... next week they will probably show the rest, really hyped to see how they became such friends. |
| Had hope that this series would be good. 'Hi, darling.' This show is like one of those cheesy 90s crime films. |
| Awesome episode. So psyched for next episode. And their pasts are really interesting. I liked it a lot. I want more of that along with the fight. I'm betting on Nic because plot armor and badass-ness, but it would be interesting if the short guy wins (those pills he took could do something). And I don't think he's a kid. They said it and in one of Worick's lessons they mentioned that the Twilights tend to have mental and/ or physical disabilities. I'm assuming that gets worse the stronger you are. So Nic is deaf and the shortie is a midget, I think. Only speculation though. Delico could be prove to be interesting. I'm curious about him. Now there's just the girl in the car from the OP that I don't think has been introduced yet. Poor Alex. I hope she stays with them. She's not too bad. Again, 10/10 $100 for Nic (that's all I've got on me...) |

 |
| That was the best episode so far i can't wait for next episode |
 |
| Epic showdown incoming |
 |
| Aww, those two were adorable kids ♡ |
Wait, did you just say that Jojo is shit?  |
| Excellent episode. I doubt the other A/0 will die, probably just flee and they'll clash again later. That's how it usually goes with anime. |
| Damn! That was a teriffic episode, probably the best yet! Cliffhanger pissed me off though! |
| i just drool over every episode. Fuckin' love it <3 isvak said: I don't know what a Twilight is, can't remember if there was any explanation. Was there any? Or it just wasn't explained yet?

I would go and explain it for you but i'm pretty sure it will be well explained soon. The past few episodes have been slowly showing all the characters and their jobs. Just know for now, that Twilights are like over-powered soldiers. |
 |
| Hopefully the six manga volumes arrives at my house before the next episode. I really wanna binge-read it. Anyway! This was a great episode. I love that Alex has trauma from her experience with Barry - not because of what she must've gone through and the damage it has done to her, but it shows that she hasn't been able to get over it in a blink of an eye. She has PTSD and from the parts we can discern from that scene, she's been through a lot. Given her prior circumstances, this is pretty freaking believable. Also, I'm really intrigued about Nic and Worrick's past. Just what exactly have those two been through? Also, Worrick's memory is insane. And what exactly are Twilights? Man I can't wait to find out. But I wish this anime was more than twelve episodes long. |
| Cockteasing us with that fight at the end. Not cool. |
 |
| Oustanding episode. |
| That last scene! A well deserved 5/5 |
| Woooow that was one hell of a bloody solid episode!! the new characters are awesome, Worick ability and how he identified the victims was impressive!! I especially liked the voice acting of young Nicolas, Delico and Doug and talking about Doug he's so badass that was an epic first appearance, and the flash back was amazing such an interesting past.. Alex is having a hard time over there too and the battle is at its finest.. damn that's exciting af |
