Lel I thought this was a gag anime about breaking out of prison?

I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats.

I seriously hope the next episode is focused around what Hajime does on his 3 days off.

so- what did i just watch?
the first episodes were just nonsensical nothings- a gag-anime that didn't make much sense and it was a wee bit fun here and there,

and then this huge effing bombshell dunks down with it's ultraviolence,
like-
did this take a u-turn as quick and as bad as Puella Magi?
bye-bye happy go lucky and hello horrible hell of trauma?

-onto the next episode ^.^-!

I like to comment Episodes as i Watch them.

Yeah, this episode reaaally made me dislike Hajime. "I will do my duty" yeah right, you pos. You just used your authority as a guard as an excuse to beat someone half to death. "Finding out this guy's true identity is my job, as well". Kinda hard to do that if he's beaten half to death, isn't it? "I wasn't trying to kill him" the hell you weren't. Stop lying. Jyugo was down for the 10 count with that punch to the abdomen. Hajime had no reason or justification to keep going like he did other than for the sake of it and he went way overboard. The other guards and Uno's criticism and berating was spot on and I hope he took it seriously, especially Uno's.

Also, there's one thing that the people who think that what Hajime did was right probably aren't thinking of, and that is that would he REALLY have stopped if Momoko hadn't told him to? I personally think he wouldn't have. 8 extra punches. 8. And he was preparing for a 9th. He'd have kept going until Jyugo was dead.

I like that Momoko is capable of making the right decision despite her crush on Hajime. A well deserved suspension. A bit disappointed it wasn't longer though.

Overall a good episode though. I had mistaken this for a gag anime lol.

you are very right

I think Hajime should’ve been suspended for longer. Yeah the inmates were reckless but he is a Prison Guard, his duty isn’t to beat someone half way to death but to apprehend the inmate like the other guards did with the blind folded flame dude.

Nice to see the blades and all that fighting and explosions from the two inmates was basically nothing against Hajime and the other guards. Really puts everyone’s strength into perspective. Was hoping for the Warden to jump into the battle.

Overall it was a nice episode but isn’t this supposed to be a funny gag type anime, where’s that part at? I came here to laugh and smile.

Vandelay Industries, this is George Can’t-Stand-Ya speaking, how may I assist you?
