Really a good episode, but that teaser at the end was a real sucker punch that had me going "wait, what!"

It was a super exciting season, each episode had me at the edge of my seat: the plottwists, the cliffhangers and etc.

I don't know who the award of Oscar-level of acting/pretending should go to: Chuuya or Fukuchi 😆

And this is it...so far. And what an ending. This show has been on a constant upstream since it started. Every season has been better than the last and this one didn´t break that chain. What an awesome ending and that animation at the end, Bones really said "let´s go out with a bang". Who might that Angel-like creature be and why does it have the sword Fukuchi had? At least it looked like he did.
I also can´t believe Fyodor and Fukuchi are dead. This show has had the fame of nobody ever dying, so I can´t wait to see if they actually stay dead or are resurrected by something. And will we have Dracula joining the Detective Agency or was this just a one time thing?
Again, great episode to close a great season (basically part 2 of S4, really) and to leave us wanting more. Too bad it won´t be anytime soon, though.

A very satisfying episode, I'm very surprised that Bones can wrapped it all in 1 episode and even give teaser for the next arc we don't even know

Fyodor's death seems suspicious because we don't even know his power till the end, I'm afraid his power is transfering his mind into other's body when he died...yes, Sigma will be "the next Fyodor"

What in the 8D chess 💀 dude wtf I’m speechless this was insane. Tears in my eyes, this was the best episode I’ve seen in a very long time. Jaw is still on the floor from all the twists and reveals.

Chuuya was never even a vampire? Using gravity to manipulate the bullet? Everything according to Dazai’s plan? Wow I knew everyone wasn’t going to be dead, it was always a question of how they’d pull it off but I got to give it to the author this was immaculate.

Against nigh insurmountable odds and the Detective agency still come out on top.. or did they? That post credits scene was insane. A future godlike version of Fukichi?? So confused but excited at the same time lol. It’ll be a long time before we get those answers sadly.

Looks like Fyodor is finally gone for good, at least he’ll be without an arm if he somehow did make it out of there. Even Dazai looked almost bittersweet about it. He enjoyed their battles a lot. In some ways, Fyodor was like another half to him.

Full body Bram finally here! That was a hell of a gamble by Aya to jump off the building but it was the perfect move since it freed him. I’m kind of confused on that one though because Bram said a few episodes ago that the sword was embedded into his brain and that removing it would kill him 🤔 maybe it was removed so quickly that his healing factor activated or something or was that just a bluff? Either way, will be interesting seeing how he and Aya’s relationship develops now that he’s her knight.


Fukichi and Yukichi final conversation was so well done. Goosebumps the entire time. As we already knew, Fukichi isn’t really evil so much as blinded by his ideology. Makes some good points, but war is ultimately something that will always be apart of human nature. Sacrificing sovereignty and free will to end it isn’t the way to go.

In the end, even though he couldn’t kill his best friend, Yukichi is still going to live on with that guilt. The ED playing over that scene of him holding Fukichi’s body and not being able to destroy the one order.. chef’s kiss, bravo Bones. Poor Teruko though 😢 even through it all she remained loyal to Fukichi. To be the one to kill him was rough.

Best episode of the best season of BSD.

Absolutely agree about the war part and Fukichi's plan! I hope that they won't make Fukuzawa become this leader of Army of Mankind, because that would collide with everything this man stands for

I love Dazai and Fyodor's relationship, the 5D chess matches are so entertaining lol. However, I don't believe Fyodor died after all those fakeout deaths. After all, there's a possibility that he'll take over Sigma's body. Plus, we don't know the full extent of his past or abilities. Chuuya pretending to be vampirized the whole time caught me off guard. Also, that fucking cliffhanger was so unnecessary as we won't get another season in a long while.

I can’t even with BSD. I loved this season, heck, I love this entire story. I can’t begin to expressed the sadness I felt with Fukuchi’s death oh my gosh that had me crying. And Chuya and Dazai being the best duo ever! Atsushi and Aku fighting at the end like partners really says they are the new gen of Sokoku.

But Fyodor can’t be dead, right? I mean, he must have something up his sleeve but we also saw his severed arm so maybe he really is dead? I don’t know, so many questions, not enough answers.

I’m so excited for the next arc but that won’t be for a while so :(
There are so many things I love about BSD and it just seems to be getting better.

The cliffhanger …. grrrrr

I think we will have to wait a long time for the next season …. For someone like me who doesn't read the manga version.

Good season 4th and 5th season.

Well, at least I was right about the girl jumping to add her weight to the sword pulling it out of Bram.

https://myanimelist.net/forum/?goto=post&topicid=2116813&id=69870494

Bram, of course, immediately ends up being her knight, because he's some edgelord and she gave him her phone with all that music - cheap bribe!

I loved the old man yaoi bits at the end, it was rather emotional, very impactful, shades of grey. Who isn't going to be wow'd when Fukuzawa cut Fukuchi with the sword sticking out of his back!! DAMN.

This was the best episode of the best season of BSD. 10/10. I couldn't actually find anything bad to say about this season, it had all the hype fights, and the whole stakes kept getting higher bit that I also loved in TTGL. Been a long time since I've seen anything this good. Very very happy with it.

It's going to be a long wait till s6 unless they do a movie.

Wow....😲
What a climax! A perfect 10 episode! 👏🏽👏🏽
I cried at the end when the old man died.
So he was not bad at all.

The writers employed a similar plot to Alan Moore's Watchmen, with Fukuchi acting like Doctor Manhattan; who played the part of an arch-villain seeking to destroy mankind in order to unify against him and prevent global nuclear war.

A common enemy of everyone, with global annihilation bringing them to their senses. I realized Fukuchi planned to give Fukuzaga the One Order before it was disclosed. I knew it the moment I saw that look on his face right before Fukuzaga cut him.

But now Fukuzaga is stuck with a very heavy burden and surely many will come to "ease" him from it. Like, perhaps, that mysterious masked man at the end who for some reason acquired Fukuchi's sword.

Who was that guy? Was he the man Fyodor feared? "Eli Lama Sabachtani", assuming her referred to him?

Too bad the next season is going to be a loooong wait, since the anime caught up to the manga 🥺

A minor gripe, since nothing can be perfect - though that might have been a translation error:

Assuming a city is considered anything with 150,000+ residents there are no... 30 million (?!!?) cities in the entire world to nuke. There are just ~4,500 cities globally.

Even if that was relaxed to a 100,000 threshold there would still be no more than 8 - 10,000 cities. If the world had 30 million cities the global population would sit at roughly... 8 trillion, not 8 billion. 😅

And i was thinking how they will defeat Fukuchi because he's too strong but, well, they didn't. It's really interesting when the MC don't defeat the main villain, specially when he's the strongest, and he concludes his objetive (although is a good thing with bad means). Definetily the most hyped season of BSD for me.

Ok, I guess someone might want to know. Dostoevsky's final words: "Eli Eli Lama Savakthany". That were the same words Jesus cried before his death, which meant: "My God, why have you forsaken me?"

BREAKING NEWS: Girl saves entire world by falling off a building with a table attached to a impaled vampire.
Seriously can't believe the fate of the entire world + Dazai's victory against Fyodor rested in the hands of a girl who barely had anything to do with any organization.

Please let Fyodor die. No more plot twists for this guy.

If Chuuya was acting as a vampire this whole time...he was voluntarily making those weird noises lol.

So Fukuchi saw a prophecy about a future war and made himself be the bad guy so people would stop him?
How come Fukuzawa didn't want to destroy the world-ending device?

I have so many questions.....

I might just have forgotten in the midst of all the information in the last few episodes, but..... where was Kyouka and Doc Yosano throughout this whole airport ordeal? Kyouka showed up for a sec in the end credits scene, but Yosano was no where to be found. A doctor would've been very helpful to have with everyone being fatally stabbed left and right (I'm impressed Fukuzawa and Kenji are still alive?)

Also, What happened to Tachihara after being bitten? He was never used after all, and I'm not sure if he'll get more screen time in future seasons.
What about Sigma? Did he die or just pass out from the info overload?
And what in the world was Fyodor's actual ability after all?? I wanna believe he died (like Dazai assured us), but as all they showed was an arm, I'm skeptical lol.


While I do love the high stake games that played out in different locations over these last two seasons, and how they touched on some of the characters' pasts who have been here since the first season but never had the spotlight before (Yosano, Tachihara, Fukuzawa etc), I do feel like they rushed the story a bit at the end. A 12th episode would've given more time to show the aftermath of the battle.


Sorry for the rant. I'm still trying to process the information from the last episode. With only Jap subs, its hard to understand Fukuchi's specific plans and thoughts in the novel world regarding that new amendment or law that would be passed.

That is one gutsy little girl. She deserves her own vampire servant.

RIP Fyodor. I knew Daizai would have to make some sort of return but I didn't expect Chuuya to be faking being a vampire. Although it feels like Chuuya could've killed Fyodor at anytime...

We finally know Fukuchi's full plans and honestly, I'm still trying to wrap my head around it. That space-time sword can go back way further into the past than I ever could have imagined.

Fukuchi's was sad to see. Especially the chief's reaction to the entire scene.

The final scene felt really random but I guess they were promoting the next season.

@Ruby_Gem Fukuchi needed someone to kill him so the chief would get the credit. Her job was to kill him if the chief couldn't bring himself to kill him.

the plot is so good that I didn't think the ADA can't win against him. I was wondering how they'll able to turn shit upside down, the gifted sword and the Holy Sword is basically the same thing as the One Order, the three of them are too dangerous to be kept.

now I was wondering, who's the new villain at the end? why he hold the purple sword though?

Teruko stabs Fukuchi in the back, pins the killing on Fukuzawa, threatens him, essentially tells Atsushi to fuck off after, and walks away from all that no questions asked? I guess the Agency are even more immediately understanding than I thought.

Was very happy to see Atsushi continuing to get his ass kicked even in the post-credits scene. It just doesn't feel right otherwise.
