| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Kinda interesting with the windows of background storytelling even in the series' finale. But at last, the truth comes to light and Sherlock also returns. Episode was able to piece together the buildup between the main cast together for their final case. Gotta also give Watson some credit for his detective skills. Him and Sherlock teaming up is like the dream duo of this show. |

| The most ridiculous version of Sherlock Holmes i've ever seen but it was so ridiculous that it became funny to watch |
 |
| So.... Moriarty got away? Tf? |
| If you read Eleceed you're automatically my friend. |
| They managed to wrap this up better than I expected. Pretty touching episode, Sherlock reading Moriarty's letter was emotional. When I watched the first episode this felt so weird and ridiculous and I'm surprised that not only I got used to it but I also started to like this weirdness lol. Anyway pretty fun anime overall with some good moments and mysteries. Glad it got a good end. nanimeanswhat said: No he's dead.So.... Moriarty got away? Tf?

Oooo... naruhodo So he never survived that fall to begin with? Then what happened to his corpse? |
| If you read Eleceed you're automatically my friend. |
| Pretty good finale. So Moriarty was dead all along (happy about that), but he left a little escape room of sorts with some kind of camera detection prerecorded video as a sort of will. I guess that implies he kinda expected he would lose in the end. At least to point where he figured he should prepare such a thing. I've never read or watched any other Sherlock fiction so I have nothing to compare it with, but this was a wild ride anyhow. Just wish some of the other detectives actually managed to solve a case and it wasn't always big brain Sherlock. |
| So even in death Moriarty was able to haunt Sherlock. |
| This was fun a ride!! |
| I liked this anime a lot. It was fun, action packed, and just a decent show overall. I like Rakugo so maybe it hits a little more, but I loved Sherlock. 8/10 |

| This was a fun anime! I liked the 1st half slightly more than the 2nd half, maybe because I enjoyed how the Jack the Ripper story line concluded. As for this episode in particular, the only thing that's bothering me is what happened to Moriarty's body if he's now dead. 7/10 |
| This show got off to a pretty slow start but picked up momentum once the Jack case started to really get itself going. I think the second half piggybacked off the momentum of the first and so it feels like it picked up steam more quickly and didn't feel as aimless at its start. Once the second half started it was quite the wild ride, but this finale seemed to wrap up most things pretty nicely (except for Moriarty's weird, unexplained, mind control thing). A decent show overall, nothing to really write home about and while it wasn't always good, it had its moments. |

| 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 Moriarty is dead for good. This was a pretty decent show and it was fun while it lasted. |
 |
| Well, that was an unexpectedly good show. 7/10. I was still confused about Moriarty but I guess he really did die. That was sad. Now, does anyone know what the final card at the end of the episode said? https://imgur.com/a/nYJw68E Also does anyone have a translation for this one in episode 17? I want to find who my detective is :"D https://imgur.com/a/iUFQnR7 |
| "Even if it has good reviews, if I don't like it then it is shit" -Some random anime character |
| Alex was the main character all along but they killed her before the anime even started |
 |
| So it is over. Fine show all things consider, had fair share of fun with it but it wasn't really that good. |
| Eh, it had its moments. |
 |
| Okay so he's dead but the body was never found No explanation on how he hypnotizes And bad expositions for a detective show, cant even execute Sherlock's deduction properly, it's just he's smart deal with it lol 5/10 |
 |
| So, Moriarty is dead, I guess. Which would mean he was just really good at predicting Sherlock and John's actions. This is confusing me. Oh god, Mycroft was a brocon this whole time? I thought he was always up to something evil, but it wasn't really evil, apparently; just kind of creepy. This anime was stupid and crazy, but it was oddly enjoyable. |
| The final stretch with Sherlock deducing Moriarty's actions, now that all evidence and clues are linked together. It's safe to say that Alex got things started, whilst James was already in his ecstatic beahvioural mind of a killer. The whole "teapot" thing was a resounding placeholder between James and Alex's relationship as siblings. Both Sherlock and Watson managed to find Moriarty's hideout (in case the anybody found the room and was rigged full of cameras) full of riddles. It's when the OP visuals finally connected everything together (it has been that way since Episode 1, a very good foreshadowing). All that Moriarty was is just like any other person: a person who desired acceptance and reciprocation. He is long dead since the incident on the rooftops, but his soul still remains, being transferred around like a teapot. Decent show overall, spending 6 months in this felt like a chore sometimes, but the end result is that it's OK at best. |
 |
| Good anime overall. I find it interesting to have transposed the story from Sherlock Holmes to Shinjuku. In the end everything happens in a limited space. As in other adaptations, I suspected that Moriarty would have a villain role at some point. I found it unfortunate that we noticed it too quickly. Personally, I had not seen it coming that Jack would be Maki. I preferred this first part to the final part. The final episode ends the series well, and despite the questions that arise about the disappearance of Moriarty's body, a second season does not seem necessary to me. My favorite characters: - Irene - Mrs. Hudson - Sherlock Special mention for the music that I really liked. Final score: 7/10 |
CodeMonkeys said: BRUH...........................suggestion that can make people commit crimes and kill themselves. Reminds me of another certain show from Fall 2019's season... |
| The first cour was very good, second cour started off very promising, then it just began to fall apart. I can get behind all the character development, but it's just so poorly written and executed. 9 for first cour, 3 for second cour, 6/10 overall. |
| So he is dead after the fall? |
solidss said: So he is dead after the fall? Yeah which is a total bs coz the body was never found, laziest red herring ever, at least they should've explained why the body was never found, he didn't fall on a dumbsite or anything, he fall on a street smh and they can't find it lol |
|
| Moriarity's dead but we never got to see the body. I didn't enjoy this episode that much. I can't believe I stuck with this show until the end, I'm glad I did in a way because I finished it but still, I had higher hopes for James. 6/10. |
| 臭い- |
| Way to leave us hanging with all that stupid faggot drama and nothing at all when it comes to Sherlock and Irene after all the shiptease in the first half of the show. 7/10 only because I really liked the first cour, but the second absolutely sucked. |
| ったく、嫌な世の中だよ。 |
| A pretty good show, the story was fun to follow. |
| In the first few episodes, I thought this show absolutely sucked. I thought it was the worst thing I've ever watched, but with time I started enjoying it more and more, especially that Irene arc and the 5-6 final episodes. I didn't really like this last episode as much as I liked the past ones, but it was enjoyable. The only thing that bothers me is that I thought moriarty was alive and there would be a second season. I'm gonna miss it, this show was odd, but I enjoyed it. |
| At first, I thought this show was really weird. As it got easier to follow near the middle, I was always excited for the next episode. I was especially excited for this episode. I liked the episode, but it was not as surprising as I thought it would be. Some of the other episodes were more enjoyable, but overall, this episode was alright. Moriarty's backstory was clarified for me, which was nice. I was also thinking, "Is anyone gonna mention Sherlock's murders?" I would like another season, although that is probably not going to happen, because Moriarty is dead. 9/10 (I would make it 10/10 if the first episodes were better because they are 8/10 for me but the newer episodes are 10/10 for sure) |

| What a load of bologny. Not only I'm supposed to believe that his heart to heart talk with the maid made Moriarty change his thoughts from the emotionless and uncaring psycho into something else, but had enough time to prepare an intrincate plan as a last goodbye for Sherlock and the gang. His last riddle where Sherlock & Watson are reading his goodbye and start crying feels so ridiculous, yet cringe that i wasn't sure if I had to laugh or just sigh and shake my head. And what the hell was all that skit of the other detectives turning their backs on Sherlock despite him and Watson had been the ones to help them in their most dire moments, just an expected change of heart for cheap drama. If the series had ended with the first cour, I would had given it a worthy 8. But the second cour was just asspull after asspull and more inconsistencies just asking me to ignore it's logic and roll with it just because it's anime. This is a new low for me. First show I rate with a 2/10 |

| I actually enjoyed this show a lot more than I thought I would. I blame the rakugo for that, ahaha a 7/10 from me |
| When mediocre fujoshi wrote fanfic of Sherlock. 4/10 |
phantomfandom said: I know immediately that Moriarty was already gone and his hideout is his last will. And Moriarty is quite a weak villain in this adaptation. The only good decision he made is that he try to make Sherlock kiss with Watson. Actually he didn't plan this. When you look closely his voice recorder activated after Mrs. Hudson mannequin was tipped over suggesting that someone would have to kiss Mrs. Hudson picture to activate the next stage. |

ganomed said: Yeah I rarely drop anything, then I regret wasting my precious time. But it's probably not just me, the overall score talks a lot. MAL scores are rarely valuable, like eg Pet where many people judged negatively after first (agreeably confusing) episodes after which (speaking honestly) this anime never recovered. |

| "Even if it has good reviews, if I don't like it then it is shit" -Some random anime character |
| So, let me see. Moriarty is practically forgiven for his countless crimes because of his sad backstory but "Jack", who supposedly ALSO had a sad backstory as motivation for her crimes, is the worst thing ever. I WONDER WHY... |
| my dark magical girl webseries https://unsafemahoushoujo.wordpress.com/blog/ |
| Why is the show called Case file no. 221 ? Always wondered about that. |
 |
| Wow didn't expect Mycroft to turn out to be a bro-con. Even after his death, Moriarty managed to toy with Holmes and Watson lol. Better than I expected this to be, love the quirky cast and the ridiculous story with some dark elements shown with lightheartedness. |
