| Gotta disagree there. The writers removed the obstacle that was Miri's mother because it was convinient. It's not good writting imo. |
Ah, I see what you mean. Yeah, I suppose that's true. Still not happy with the execution, but oh well. It doesn't ruin the show or anything, just more of a snag really. |
| Damn back to back sad episode??? come on man. This episode broke me again... wow this episode made me cry for the mother (which i really hate her at first).. even though she was a shitty person but she regret what she doing all this time and want to make Miri happy again. I think that's what got me the most. Miri gonna be traumatized her whole life when she found out what happen with her parents. Miri didn't deserve all of this. One more episode left, please be happy ending. I can't keep crying again. |

Sigmar-Unberogen said: Warning: This is a rant. Wtf is this episode??? Miri's mom was killed off so our main duo would reunite with Miri, that's the whole reason why it happened. Lazy ass writing! Hooray, now there's no "obstacles" for the MCs to be with Miri! You got to be kidding... Isn't Kazuki supposed to be a pro btw? Not only did he hesitate to shoot a guy who wants to assassinate a mother and a child, but he also got owned by said assassin, who could've killed him multiple times (with ease) but didn't for BS reasons (plot-convenience and lazy writing). Imagine an assassin not killing his defenseless targets and basically failing his mission (btw the order came from the head of assassin family, so no fear of punishment for failure???) because cops arrived??? BRUH! Kazuki looked like a complete amateur! It's like he knew of plot-armor existing and didn't even try to fight back properly. It's not like Miri's life was on the line, right? Pathetic... Killing Miri's mom just made this show so lame and dumb. This is supposed to be "action-comedy", wtf? Her having cancer wasn't enough? Try-hard BS drama... It's just awful... I mean, Miri's mom's body is likely not even cold yet, and Kazuki with a usual smile already proclaims, "Yeah, we're gonna be a real family now!" WTF??? That's what happens when you force drama and rush the plot - The show turns to total shit-fest! Are the two planning to lie to Miri about her mom from now on? And what about her irrelevant dad? That topic will also resurface eventually. "We assassinated your shitty father, and your mom GOT KILLED because Rei's dad didn't like his assassin son getting attached to you. But we do love you, so sorry? lelz". No matter the age, Miri will be BROKEN. The betrayal, the lies - this is just so tragic for her. And just to remind you, this is a comedy show, lol! No way this can have a happy ending. I mean, I can imagine some BS sugarcoating when it comes to Miri forgiving the duo, but the ED will no longer feel the same. Playing cheerfully ED with smiling Miri is now a slap in the face. Fuck this shit. Hurr durr, bad writing, lazy wiring just because I say so hurr durr. For starters, just because Kazuki is a profesional hitman doesn't mean he should be completely flawless. Most of the series it showed that Rei was "the muscle" in this team and did most of the dirty job while Kazuki was "the brains". You can argue as much as you want that they were a lousy team, but that doesn't equate to your lousy "bad writing" rant being right. Secondly both Kazuki and Rei haven't been doing "hit jobs" lately because Kyo-chan had them on just surveilance and recognizance jobs since they slacked off and lost some rep due to being full time parents. Any professional player (pick whatever sport you want) will lose skill if they don't do any practice in a long time, same concept applies to the killing business both Rei and Kazuki live off. Regarding the continuation on your angry rant about Kazuki's plot armor and his inability to react towards the imminent danger of an assassin arriving at Miri's house, it's nothing but absolutely horseshit. People under duress don't react the same as regular people under normal circunstances. It's not some sort of on/off switch that you can simply switch and you become an unkillable and flawless killing machine. Even trained cops and army corps can freeze up if they have to react on a last minute call on duty. Regarding the point that action comedy shouldn't have any deaths is just pure BS. Please, show me this book of rules that state that action comedies should leave character deaths out. I can easily think of a couple of live action comedy movies that involved deaths as plot points, such as Kickass, Zombieland, or Shaun of the Dead. Anime isn't stray to this concept, we even had Akiba Maid War last season involving the death of one of the protagonists in it's last quarter of it's runtime. Your last paragraph isn't even worth to reply to, because it's such a mess of just plain anger and questioning something that hasn't even happen yet. |

| Kinda expected them to kill of Miri's mom somehow. I agree that its heartbreaking that she had both her real mom and dad die. But at least she'll have a new loving family that will do nothing but support her. Also her having two dad's in Japan will definitely raise some eyebrows. People are going to think Rei and Suzaku are married, but maybe they already thought that. |
Tobirama-Sensei said: Yeah, I don't have kids, and u r right, it is not bad writing, is TRASH writing.StallionXD said: Damn this is so bad, they try so hard to rush drama and action now that there is only 1 episode left. Introduce a character just to kill it in the next one -> Bad guy just wanna do bad things because he is bad -> The protagonist duo, experts assassins, can't do shit about it. Also wtf, 3 shots in the room next to her, her mom died, they all talked, the police made lots of noices, they grab her and move her to a whole different place, and yet Miri never ever woke up, just at the end of it all, trash writing. So fkng baad 😴😴😴 You don't have kids do you ? That's why you think it's bad writing.. -_- Thanks god this only have 1 episode left so I can properly give it a 2. |
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~ Btw, cry about it.  |
| Worst episode of the anime so far, it was such a lazy script trying to rush to the end of the work. Now with their mother dead, they can be a family again, just happiness! Super simple huh. Wasn't it enough that they had killed the girl's father? My profession is a hitman, my daughter and her mother are in danger. I have a gun pointed at the head of the guy who wants to kill them, why don't I shoot? I just keep thinking about the future, how they're going to explain the death of her real parents and how she's going to deal with it. |

| Rei finally became a real dad ^_^ |
| had a feeling miri would return but damn, didn't expect the mom to die. both of miri's biological parents have died, that's rough. first half was quite sad, an empty and quiet house without miri, at least rei wants to step up and kazuki as well have become miri's fathers again. i felt it when rei said, "i was a breathing statue." |
 |
| feels like things are being rushed, with the change from 13 to 12 episodes especially, probably due to the schedule change. that's really unfortunate, but hopefully it doesn't end too badly. |
| Those words coming from Rei just shows how much he has changed since, Miri became a part of their life. |
| i extremely disliked that miri's mum had to die. just felt like it was deliberate for the "plot" of 2 papa's taking care of miri. if they wanted they could talked it out and kazuki or rei could have married miri's mum and they could have been a real family but nooooooooooo. fuck this. i hated the mum but after seeing her try to change just to die :( they want to get out of the business but i don't think rei's boss will allow it like that. i say rei and kazuki should kill the boss and the dude who killed miri's mum and then move cities. looking forward to see how everything works out in the last episode as i don't think there would be a 2nd season. also looking at how depressed their life was after miri went i couldn't help but think what kind of turn the story would take if imagine kazuki was late and miri had been killed. that would have been fucked up but the story would have taken a very dark turn, something like how they both now go against a whole hitman organization and kill every last of them or they just stay depressed and commit double suicide. would watch something like that ngl. |

 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
I like more the idea of sending Miri to orphanage and when she grows up they reunite back... but still about Miri's feeling..... that's not the best thing to do. Miri still need her mom's love. Two father's nothing, they can't replace her mom. Unless Miri growing up without mom from the start. Well whatever happens, happens.  |
| Damn I feel conflicted about them technically being the reason Miri's mom dies. Even if she was going to die anyways. It feels wrong for them to lie to Miri about the truth concerning her parents, I really hope they address that in the next episode because they shouldn't just pretend they are a perfect and happy family. |
| Man I really hope this gets another cour/season because I feel like there's so much and yet we only get one more episode. I feel so bad for Miri's mom, just when she was getting her life back and starting to actually make an effort to be Miri's mom, this happens(plus she already had cancer which makes her being killed by a hitman seem kinda pointless? Idk I honestly thought she was gonna die from cancer, not this). ;w; I hate Rei's father and his hitmen so much. But Rei more or less said "sorry not sorry dad but I'm moving in with my husband and our daughter especially since you killed her mother" now if he could actually tell his dad LOL ;w; |

 You have been blessed by sparkly bishie Cherry Blossom <3 You're welcome ^^ |
| I knew they would do something to get Miri back with Kazuki and Rei but killing off the mother like this and then them deciding to step out of the hitman business and living happily with Miri is the most stupidest asspull way of doing it, really hated it. If it was going to end up like this I wish that guy would have succeeded to kill Miri too. Also that assassin guy had multiple chances to finish off Kazuki but we have his plot armor going strong, shit writing at it's finest. |

| Damn. How are they going to tell Miri that her mom is dead. |

| @Kimurah Did you just write an entire paragraph about my rant? Having too much free time? Of course I'm going to be the one to say this. Do you want an official letter from the author or a studio or something? Here's a hint: People define bad/lazy writing differently - I know, a shocker! Kimurah said: Gonna stop you right there pal. Nobody asked for your lecture about realism when it comes to dealing with stress. It's like seriously discussing "why a guy suddenly tripped" in a horror movie. You can argue the guy was scared and genuinely tripped and got caught by whatever monster was chasing him. I'm gonna call it lazy-ass writing and argue the author purposefully tripped the character to have few survivors at the end. There can be no definitive answer in this discussion so don't pretend like your argument makes more sense than mine. It doesn't.For starters, just because Kazuki is a profesional hitman doesn't mean he should be completely flawless. Kimurah said: It always makes me chuckle how people like you ask for "book of rules". This is a rant. People judge things based on own opinions. I literally put a warning up there for smartasses like you to ignore my comment or to take it with a grain of salt, but I guess you couldn't resist the urge to sound smart anyways. Anyway, moving on, did you seriously compare this show with purposefully dark comedies like Kickass, Zombieland, or Shaun of the Dead??? Bruh...Regarding the point that action comedy shouldn't have any deaths is just pure BS. Please, show me this book of rules that state that action comedies should leave character deaths out. I can easily think of a couple of live action comedy movies that involved deaths as plot points, such as Kickass, Zombieland, or Shaun of the Dead. This show just killed off the beloved mother (only parent) of an innocent kid in cold blood. Just like that example I made about a guy tripping in horror movies, killing her off looked like a lazy-ass writing to me, made purposefully to get rid of the "obstacle" who took Miri away from the main duo and have them reunited again. Kimurah said: Google the definition of a rant next time, if you're so oblivious. And another shocker, people can talk about something that hasn't yet happened too, if they want to.Your last paragraph isn't even worth to reply to, because it's such a mess of just plain anger and questioning something that hasn't even happen yet. |
| From the beginning, I never trusted P.A Works, not because of a bad story but because they always make sad endings for several anime series. |
| RIP Miri's mom, but I think that her death made sense. I mean, it really does show that Miri won't be safe until Kazuki and Rei take out whoever's threatening her. |

| cmon!!!! i was rooting for the mom - she really wanted to change and live a normal life with her daughter. she was going to be dying soon anyways, didn't she say she was sick and didn't have a lot of time left? i'm incredibly distraught by this episode. bro's telling her "hang in there!!!" bro she was shot can you at least put pressure on her wound/help slow the bleeding? the fact kazuki can't even shoot that bozo who killed her. man what??? kazuki and rei already lied to miri saying her mom will be back,, i'm curious to see if they'll keep up that lie (or if the whole subject is just dropped by next episode) & also if they'll avenge her mother's death by killing that guy. i wouldn't say this ruined the show for me, but i will say that i just don't agree with how this episode played out. |

| Yeah Miri's mother was right. That was no environment to raise a child, but unfortunately it was too late and she paid the price... So our boys realize sending Miri off to some orphanage would be awful for her but the only way to properly raise her is if they get out of the assassin business. Easier said than done. Well let's see how it's resolved next episode. Also Miri should find out about her mother probably. |
| Look rushed... Rei father is an organization mafia boss but he doesn't actually look like it in this episode... He seems like... Hesitate... But have to do it because he's the boss of some mafia known family. Of course they have to kill the mother, now the buddies daddy decided to take care of Miri... Want will happen next? Rei dad having a change of heart and approved? Or Rei have to kill him to take care of the next Suwa family business. I'm pretty sure they will kill that Miri's mother killer on the next episode. For those who think Miri doesn't wake up on that noise is ridiculous are actually never live with kids and heavy sleeper adult... And that guy using a silent pistol... Of course it's not so noisy... But it's actually ridiculous when 'neighbours' are all heavy sleeper or deaf since Kazuki actually shot a normal pistol and it's loud xD |
 |
| Of course her mom died, why wouldn't she have? Ugh this keeps getting more depressed as new episodes come out. I hope next week's episode is happy again. How is Rei going to escape his dad's evil wrath? I'm glad they both realized they need Miri in their lives. It was definitely boring and dull without her. Do y'all think there's going to be a second season? |
As a wise man once said, "No one hates anime more than anime fans"  |
| Another emotional episode. Sadly, Miri loss her mother. I do want her to go back with Rei and Kazuki but not this way.. I hope the two dads will make Miri happy as they will become a real family. |
