Welp, shit got real this episode.

Rock and Yamato attacks! Other than that, pretty meh episode. We still got the usual humor. Tsukamo is the hero we need and deserve.

So Rock and Yamato were being by talisman. Tsukamo saved Juugo just in time. Hajime giving the middle finger was hilarious. Things are getting serious now.

That was a pretty brutal episode. At least their actions were explained.

That was really funny watching Hajime get caught like that.

I'm looking forward to the next episode to see what Building 5 is up to.

is it just me or does nanbaka seem to be getting better? like with the tournament arc there was no humor but now it can manage both.

Tsukomo shining! That save!

Seriously intense shit here, the last comedy bit at the end was hilarious though.

Jyugo is too emotional in this episode, almost to the point of being dumb. The ending was very funny especially when Hajime got trapped.

Talisman? Ok, that isn't THAT far out there considering one character predominately sports one, but who put those on the people who were affected? I'm assuming the dude who greeted Hajime at the last few seconds has something to do with it.

Still though, Hajime getting trapped was hilarious.

Nice episode.

Jyugo should have acted once they realized that the talisman was on Rock's back instead of hesitating. With his abilities he should have been able to remove it fairly easily.

Anyway, Nice job Tsukumo. I did not know he had that kinda of skills. xD

Wow, Uno wrecked Hajime in that negotiation. :o

The ending with Hajime getting trapped and the trio falling into a different trap was hilarious. XD That Hajime middle finger. XDD

I can get why Jyugo didn't want to use his swords he wanted to try and reason; he didn't want to hurt Rock (Even though he was blatantly attacking him) especially after they found out it wasn't Rock's fault. I can see how Jyugo has grown as a character; instead of him going in to straight out fight he's trying to reason that or he just doesn't want to hurt his friend.

Meanwhile, Hajime wrecks anyone regardless of who they are. I was dumb to expect a serious fight between him and Yamato lol

Note that I'm not critisizing this. It's just my fault expecting something that Hajime clearly isn't the type for orz excuse me while I go nursing yamato...

I like how there ARE times when Hajime doesn't act like the 'big tough guy' and actually seems stressed about his job and stuff, but he should've realised something was wrong with his co-worker and not have tried to pummel him into submission. An inmate is fine if you have to incapacitate them (But not near death), but your CO-WORKER! I really don't like Hajime at times when he does these things...

Personally I kinda hate him too when he does that. I'd like to see him show just a bit of emotion where it's due sometimes.
Still there is the argument that Yamato is tough enough to endure it. :(

That is true, but they are co-workers he should've shown some form of remorse. I was starting to dislike him after the Jyugo incident (as Jyugo is my favourite character), but I had hoped he'd redeem himself and now ... I'm unsure if he will.

Just my thoughts:
I think that those sweets of that beautiful lady put Yamamoto and Rock to sleep, or something in their tea made them sleep so someone was able to put the talisman on them.

Wow this episode ROCKS. :D The fight was epic with Rock beating the hell out of Jyugo and he thinks he did something to upset him T_T Jyugo the real friend :)
Then Ninja-san comes out of nowhere and saves his ass. He is pretty freaking epic. Definitely made me like him 10times more after this episode. Honestly freaking Ninja-san...


Uno is great at dealing with people. The Gorilla in a cage made me laugh quite a bit :)

pretty obvious trap. why didn't he solicit help from other places before marching off to an obvious trap? i agree the cookies gift was probably a sedative and to make it easy to blame it on monkey-san.
