| What a night. This episode was a chance of opportunity. From the action bits and fighting to the drama, this episode really highlighted how far these people will go to deal with a case. Sherlock Holmes himself was also quite a badass imo. What an episode with...a cliffhanger! |
 |
| Nice to see Moriarty getting mentioned. This feels like a battle of minds now, I wonder what Holmes will do. |
 |
| had to hold my breath multiple times, fabulous show. I wonder how they will survive... |
| A day of chaos, leading up to the eleventh hour… As Lupin’s planned attack drew closer, it was a rather interesting day in London for all of the characters, first with Tsugaru losing track of Aya, a rescue, and a fight between Lupin and Tsugaru. Then, they got back to the mansion to protect the diamond, and there were a lot of close ups of the characters’ faces, which draws a lot of suspicion to many people. We know Lupin can disguise himself very well, so by the time 11pm rolled around, maybe the diamond has already been stolen. We shall find out next time! These episodes go by way too quick… |
| This episode was so funny that I'm slightly beginning to forgive the seeming bait-and-switch after episode 1. |
| Such a busy episode, and specifically for Lupin. If his staged meeting with Holmes wasn't already exciting enough, be it unintentionally, he and our main crew came face-to-face as well. And then, we might not have seen him and Aya trying to get better of each other with their brains but that brawl between Tsugaru and Lupin did give something to look back at.. might not be with fond memories for Tsugaru lol. But he doesn't give a fuck anyways, so I doubt. Lupin has already started his part, and it does look like he has almost succeeded against Holmes but who knows again. Looking forward to how Holmes going to respond while being underwater next time lol. |

| Lupin v Tsugaru DBZ style fight was not what I had in mind for today’s episode lmao, wow this was great. Obviously Tsugaru wasn’t going all out and was trying to gauge Lupin’s abilities, but the fact Lupin is strong enough to hold his own was cool. Reminds me more of the persona 5 Lupin than the traditional one lol. I’m surprised that Lupin stopped the carriage to pick up Shizuka, though. Considering the scale of the operation just a few hours later that seemed reckless, but I guess it shows he not all bad. Speaking of Shizuka and Tsugaru, how tf do you misplace Aya like that 😂. Part of me wonders if everything was part of the plan and that’s how they kept making fateful encounters today or if Tsugaru really did just pick up the wrong cage. Wow what a cliffhanger to leave off on. Flooding the vault is bold as hell and idk how they’re gonna survive this one. Can’t wait for next week’s episode. The mind games in this have been amazing. |

I like how Lupin’s tricks is foreshadowed in the fight scene, clever use of distraction and using forceful violence to win the day  |
| Great cliffhanger and the interactions were very enjoyable yet again! |
| I knew Arsene Lupin was going to use a disguise although I wasn't expecting him impersonate Sherlock Holmes in the beginning of the episode. Arsene going toe to toe with Tsugaru shows that not only Arsene is a great thief, but he's also a skilled fighter. Sherlock Holmes thought that Arsene wasn't going to get through the basement door by jamming the locks with the bullets of his gun, but Lupin was three steps ahead of Holmes when he flooded the basement. Now there is no way to protect the safe with everyone being underwater. The Phantom Thief of The Opera and Arsene Lupin are a force to be reckoned with. |
 |
| Damn he got them real good with that water flood. Now they're in big trouble cause they're locked inside. Also, im still liking the oni slayer's humor, it never fails to make you laugh |
| After the runaround that Tsugaru had it looked as though towards the end they would just be waiting, but of course chaos begins to ensue! |
 |
| That was fun, and more than just fun, it both went back to what the show is good at, the antics of its main characters, and did what I wanted it to do, which is discredit Holmes. I was thinking things would be resolved this episode, but extending it to another episode seems like it'll be better given how it's gone. Holmes has lost already; Aya and Tsugaru get the whole of the next episode. And look at how Holmes lost: A clever rationalization—you can't unlock a lock if the mechanism is entirely broken!—turned completely irrelevant. This is exactly the problem of Holmesian ratiocination, that you can run your logic wheels as much as you like, and it won't get you anywhere if you've misread the whole context of the situation. And because reading the context of a situation isn't deductive reasoning, the Holmesian paradigm of the brilliant detective fails, both as a model of intelligence and a method of solving cases. What is required is non-deductive judgment, the kind you might get, say, if you were a thousand years old. Not playing around within a system, but constructing the system itself. |

| It was disappointing to see Tsugaru lose so easily like that. Oh well, hopefully he’ll be able to redeem himself |
| An immortal severed head onahole, those two were definitely going to get the gluck gluck from her at some point, but the plot wouldn't allow it, what a shit development. |
| I can't help but swear why its only 23mins!!!! by the Gods, the cliffhanger! |
 |
| Is it just me, or has the quality dropped since the introduction of Sherlock and Lupin? It started off so strong. |
| Aya went splat! Interesting to see the characters meet like pieces on a chessboard. I’m very curiousas to what Aya is planning. Shizuku is so abusive…makes me wonder what her story is. |
| lupin back at it and a fight with tsugaru hmm. |
 |
| Villain always have come up with out of the box plan :) |

| dam, this show gets better and better the writing, the characters and directions are done to a Tee. They need to revamp the episodes to be an hour long because fuck cliffhangers |
hannibal_l said: So your telling me that sherlock didn't consider the air vent as a possible entry route? They mentioned how cramped and small the vent. saying a child would have difficulty moving through and also bends and folds to the chamber. But I'm more confused about how water got in? As sturdy as the building is idk a bomb that lethal to detonate underwater and has enough force to blow up the vent/wall considering this is the late 19th century |
| Homles thought direct while Lupin was, "Nah I'm going to go indirect." Now what will our trio will do. Will they make their move after he has the diamond? |
| I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon. |
| As hinted the vent is the key to his plan after all. It was funny watching Aya gettinf mixed up with a bird. Lupin confrontation with Sherlock and Aya's group was nice. Sherlock's plan of locking themselves up backfired on them. |
 |
| I'm not sure how Lupin has some superhuman fighting ability, most of the other characters are ordinary humans. Like Holmes, Fogg , Lestrade etc. He is just a very clever man in his original literature. |
Animillion said: It was disappointing to see Tsugaru lose so easily like that. Oh well, hopefully he’ll be able to redeem himself Seems like he was tricking Lupin into making him think that's he is weaker than him. |
| what is the meaning of Farce in that anime? Does it have the same meaning as Joke or not? (Just want to be sure) |

He destroyed that vampire and other monsters easily, so losing to Lupin like that seemed so out of place |
| Another good episode ending with another cliffhanger. I gotta say that Lupin's plan to flood the room was clever, moreso than Sherlock's plan to lock themselves in. I do wonder if the people inside the safe will be ok and not drown... Also, I'm thinking that Lupin will come in from the vent after all and will steal the treasure. After that perhaps Tsugaro will fight Lupin for real and/or the two characters that want all monsters eradicated. |
| Uff... Now shooting the locks seems like a dumb idea; now you can't even get away and drown. IMO it was dumb to begin with. Did they expect Lupin/Phantom would enter from main gate and do some "anime-logic" 1or2vsAll fist-fight to take the diamond? |
| Once again the episode went by so fast. Another week of wait. Sherlock Holmes needs to watch more suspense movies. It's a basic multi-universal knowledge that if way to get out of somewhere is above you, water will be somehow filling in to make you drown, no matter what planet/universe you are in. |
