| I'm kinda sympathizing with Akutagawa even though I kinda hated him so far...Mmmm I wonder what'd happen in the next episode. I expected more from the priest though....hopefully it's not over yet. |

| That ending though, wow. Really liking the 3 way conflict. |
|
| The three-way conflict is pretty exciting, though it's frustrating that the Guild seems to be so... gullible this episode. >.> I'm really glad that Chuuya seems to be getting way more screen-time that last season, as he's probable a favourite of mine. Though, it'd be nice to be filled in more in regards to the relationship between Chuuya and Dazai - surely there's some history between their partnership to talk about? |
 Once we seize space, we'll all... |
| Epic fight but i think that those 2 from the guild shouldn't have survived for so long, especially the girl. The lemon guy did an epic scene. |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| Looks like Port Mafia still standing superior because they made Detective Agency & Gifted Guild clash head to head! 5/5. |

Smudy said: mhm its about to go down next epsI haven't seen a 2nd season of a show that has been SO MUCH BETTER than the first. That fight between Akutagawa and Hawthorne was RAD. |
| Aaaaand it got boring again, what a shame. Fight was cool though. 3/5 |
DragonSlayer_19 said: Oh, you are right with the stuff of the mafia. Now it's understandable why they didn't arrested Kajii or Black Lizard when they could. Fucking Mori is cunning like a fox.Illyricus said: They adapted the chapters more or less well despite the omission of some scenes (nothing important though, if I remember right). I still cannot believe the Guild let Kajii wreck their ship, Kajii, of all people (I also wonder why the Agency didn't arrested him during the incident of the train, though. He is an obviously insane and dangerous individual and not the kind of people you will let free when you has the chance to capture him). The fight of Akutagawa against Hawthorne and Mitchell was also very cool, it has fluid visuals and the voice acting was on point (props to Akutagawa's VA). I still find weird the way The Scarlet Letter is portrayed. While reading the manga, I imagined it being like red letters used as a weapon rather than like an orange mass similar to Akutagawa's Rashomon. And speaking about Rashomon, it may be one of the most cool looking abilities of all the series. I'm looking forward Akutagawa's new techniques in the future. I'm sure the most of people won't give a fuck about Hawthorne and Mitchell considering they barely had screentime, but I really felt bad for them. They were defeated too quick without making us see more of their personalities. They also did well the part when Chuuya attacks the Agency and they discover the trick of the Mafia with the Guild and Naomi. Next episode will be exciting considering we will see fucking Lovecraft in action. I really, really hope they did justice to that part (though the title implies they will also adapt the scene when Wonder what Bones is planning... I don't necessarily dislike hawthorne . I find his priest character enjoyable . But i don't quite like what he did later on |
 |
| LOL I think they might even have had a change against Akutagawa if the woman wouldn't have talked shit to him xD never known defeat or humiliation? What a joke. He was beaten by someone who couldn't even properly control his ability just recently. Of course that'd tick him off xD Now is just the question does he get out or is he collapsing himself and only taking out one of the two? |
Atavistic said: As enjoyable a fight as it was, I find it a bit ridiculous that those Guild members fighting Akutagawa survived so long with all those injuries, as they logically should have died. After all, not everyone has healing powers like Atsushi, so there's no reason those two should have been able to get back up and fight again and again and again. Stll, this is definitely a solid arc so far, and I only hope that continues. Well, I found it to be a common action anime cliche, actually. Also, Hawthorne is pretty OP, and Hawthorne X Mitchell OTP! And this episode made me realize how much I miss seeing Yosano in action after she basically killed that lemon guy ;) And Ranpo should open his eyes more often, he looks good with them open XD |
 |
| Akutagawa is annoying af.. What are the chances for him to just disappear? |
 |
| The fights are getting exciting. |
| The action in this episode was splendid! I love the animation quality in the fight scenes! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Guild have members with great power, too bad Port Mafia was also well prepared to the war |
 |
| Shit's boutta get real ;O |
| Akutgawa is growing on me I still miss Oda so much. Wonder how well he'd do in these fights. Maybe he'd body these scrubs |
| When life gives you lemons, make lemonade! |
 |
| this show is written with so many half thought out ideas, but the thing is that they're actually good. but they aren't acted out to the fullest so it's just plain awkward. |
 |
| Fight was cool. Atugawa definitely know how it feels to lose. Port Mafia is doing a decent job making the agency and the guild fight at the end. |
 |
| man i cant get over how much i love how all of the characters are actual authors, and their abilities are the names of their books. it's so cool to me. action in this episode is great, im enjoying this so far |
| More screentime for Akutagawa. Nice. So, the Guild is going to attack Naomi. |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 |
| In Guild's ship, two members are on duty, Nathaniel and Margaret, they received Ogai's threat letter and the soldiers captured mafia's bomber, he cheated everyone and detoned a bomb in the helicopter's load, after the disaster Akutagawa appeared and attacked Nathaniel, and when he was hurt, Margaret protected Nathaniel with her body from Akutagawa's attack. In the Agency's lair, someone is entering though the tunnel, it is Chuya and brought a trap set for two guild members (Lovecraft and John S.), they're gonna go to the Agency's office (where Kirako and Naomi are) thinking they'll find them there. Fukuzawa sent Kunikida and Tanizaki to solve it. The ship assault was pretty dramatic, I didn't see it coming, I mean, Ogai is really careful to expose Port Mafia like that, maybe it was a good move, and despite that, in his mind, he's trying to end this conflict confronting the Agency with Guild. The girls are in trouble. Some amazing backgrounds. |

| It really requires a huge suspension of disbelief when characters not only living in a world has a reality-defying powers, but who's livelihood is defined by such, are arrogant enough to think that there's no way the enemy organisation could ever succeed in surprise attacking them. You can't even say that it shows someone's arrogance, as everyone seem prone to this, including wise-looking good characters. But other than that, an enjoyable episode all around. |
  |
| I really like Chuuya's gravitational ability. Really useful if it extends outside his physical body (and clothes obviously). |
  Floating Around... "You're loved as deeply as the ocean reaches"  |
| Akutagawa was so great in this episode. Same with Chuuya. Everything is getting better!! |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| Oh damn this is interesting i love to see their abillities once again. |
| Sorry for my english xD! RIP Kentaro Miura :( RIP Akira Toriyama :(  |
| The guild vs mafia full fight was some hype one, now it's getting even more difficult |
 |
| Nothing about Kyouka yet, the guild's base got destroyed by the bomber, the power scaling in this story feels kind of confusing. |
| It's nice seeing Akutagawa again. I like Chuuya and his powers. |
