| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Heh, a raid operation like this goes to show what some of these characters can do with their abilities. Seems the stakes in this show is getting higher and higher now. Ordinary Person also seems to be more eager to be part of the team. This turned out to be a thrilling episode. |
 |
| holy shit that was close! Swindler made it JUST in time. Well, to be continued next episode. |
 |
| Talk about timing omfg. Our Ordinary gal actually putting a shift in too. |
| Ahh that synchronized button press was kinda unrealistic, but ofc I shouldn't be expecting too much realism in this series lmaooo Swindler seems to have the power of luck on her side. Wonder when she's gonna get busted though, or is it gonna be something like "yeah we all knew you weren't legit" |
| This anime shit is addictive |
 Long time no see.. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
What a nerve-wracking episode!!! Swindler is actually useful this episode, quick thinking and some muscle. Perfect timing! New challenge awaits! Based on the preview, the Executioners are aboard the Shinkansen! This is getting more fascinating! |
| They managed to get into the shinkansen at the end thanks to swindler's efforts. "Geh" Swindler is kumiko in disguise confirmed. |

| What Pierrot has taught me is that cat is probably gonna turn into hot waifu or something |

| Continuing with the billion-dollar Shinkansen mission, the Akudamas get another chance to attack within a strict timeframe, and unsurprisingly with tighter security. To be expected, Ordinary Person a.k.a Swindler is slowly getting used to the work of the Akudamas with robo-boss Black Cat, but this mission, is just like a total James Bond situation of being Mission:Impossible. Well, given the individual abilities of the Akudamas, this should be a piece of cake...if not involving teamwork. BUT WHAT A MADLAD for Brawler and Cutthroat to even finish the job's 1st half with Hoodlum and Swinder landing the final blow for clearance. The 2nd half is where this mission's at, and it's all up to Swindler to complete the job IN THE NICK OF TIME. Impressive job well done, and this is only Stage 1. I may have missed out this info last episode, but the TV-like infomercials used for world-building explanation is such a unique touch. Another great episode, and can't wait for more. |
 |
xD thought the same thing, its the same voice actor too right |
| Damn monster, Brawler dude's sick. Things were pretty tense as they attempted to board the Shinkansen and they safely made it. Thou Hacker raised a big death flag for him, so won't be surprised if he dies first. Also is Swindler actually a spy? Proly yes. |
 |
| Great stuff so far, this series. The episode titles check out, it really felt like I was watching an anime version of Mission Impossible today. |
 |
| Another great episode. I’m kind of expecting that there’s finally going to be serious consequences for the Akudama group in the next couple of episodes since this episode played rather smoothly most of the time. Also liking this ED, it’s a bop to listen to. This, Jujutsu, and Taiso Zamurai are probably my favorite EDs so far this season. |
 |
| The twists get more convenient but the episodes get more fun. |
| The most exciting anime I’m watching right now Literally can’t wait for next week |
| For a billion dollar mission the beginning of the mission seemed pretty lame and boring but then the next episode will probably have all the good stuff in it judging by the end of the episode and what Black Cat said. Brawler and Hoodlum are like the stupidest duo. Ordinary Person was useful making sure the plan succeeded and Doctor just standing there reading the timer. Cutthroat doing whatever the hell he wants to do and hacker being a hacker. Courier didn't get a lot of screen time this episode. Exited for next weeks episode Good episode :) |
 |
| Swindler funnily enough seems to be the missing piece that this squad needed to pull off this heist. Even though she’s just an ordinary person, without her they wouldn’t have got it done today. Now the real challenge starts tho. This show continues to impress |

|
| Swindler is really pulling her weight...literally |
 |
| These Akudamas sure are making my Thursdays worth it. Characters are growing on me slowly, though things were a bit on convenient side here but fun too Brawler and Hoodlum are dumb but dope |
 |
| This episode was some Mission Impossible / Ocean's 11 shit, they need to ask for a raise because this shit is getting crazy by the day, and (ooH We!!!) (ooH We!!!) Ordinary Person, she saves the mission two times. this was a great episode Overall 8 out of 10 |
 |
| Soundtrack is top notch as usual and the visuals fit the story perfectly. The Ordinary Girl trying to fit along these Akumada and her actually doing her part correctly really surprised me. Loving this show so far |
| Okay that episode was very cool, swindler is very interesting character. I don't like Brawler at all but I know this anime need this type of character. |

| Another cool and exciting episode, our ordinary girl is getting more and more Akudama. |

Mfundroid said: Swindler continues to live up to her name. She keeps faking it till she makes it. Also, anybody notice when Bunny and Shark said that Kansai Police Extermination Department Executioners also specialise in infiltration and undercover operations? I'm of the opinion that Courier is one of them. Something about him feels off. In a good way of course. Anyway, another excellent episode! Let's hope the anime continues at this pace! I was actually thinking that it was Swindler. They definitely pointed that out because there has to be a mole in Akudama 7 and Swindler feels like an unpredictable factor enough to be an undercover cop. (well, executioner, in this case.) Maybe she had her memories erased to convincingly play her role but then again, there are many factors that won't fit if it's her or Courier. |
 |
| Ordinary person is getting used to akudama. |
 |
| Whew, so many tense moments this episode, especially when Swindler managed to shut down the Shinkansen shield SECONDS before Courier drove onboard! It looks like Swindler is actually beginning to get attached to the Akudama she's working with, realising that they're just human. Wonder what this means for her future? |
 |
| Great episode. Looking forward to the next ones. I like the setting. The directing and writing is cool. (When the scenes change ... pretty well done.) Comedy is a bit fun as well - with the Hoodlum guy and Swindler pushing the buttons. (Poor drone.) Some things I noticed: The courier guy is a bit calm and cares only about the job. And he has the same voice actor as Goblin Slayer. (Who cared about Goblins only. Similarly calm.) The boss of the 2 guys from the executioner department looks similar to chief Kasei from Psycho Pass. And she has the same voice actor. Similar situation: A desk and 2 subordinates. (Master and pupil here. In Psycho Pass the inspector/enforcer.) Can't be a coincidence. Maybe some other people can regonize different stuff that might refer to other different anime. (From the other chars.) |
| This series is fun for sure but come on, (probably) the most important structure in this region has just 1 guard at the entrance that doesn't even check documents and the defences can be destroyed by knives? |
My candies:     Bonus:   |
| This was another fun and ridiculously entertaining episode the one thing that's stand out for me in this episode is the soundtracks, they were amazing actually Akudama Drive may end up anime of the season for me 5/5 |

| Poor Ordinary Girl, she just keeps getting deeper in shit. |
| Close call but the plan worked, at least for its first part. According to the preview, things won't be so easy next week, but one guy in the squad will surely become happy to fistbrawl |

this is Sibyl in beta lol |

| Another really good episode. The nerves in this one were quite on the spot. I'm getting more used to the other Akudamas. Looks like Ordinary Girl is also getting used to being a member of the Akudama, she's also getting deeper and deeper into more trouble. The cliffhanger though... I'm very hyped to see what's coming next. It doesn't seem it's going to be easy for them! |
 |
| Everyone keeps saying cutthroat is a weirdo, but he looks so soft to me <3 idk he looks like he gives good hugs. |
