I quite liked Revy's speech how once things loose value, they're just things. But i don't agree how she thinks money is everything, but obviously her values are sculptured by her past so i guess that's why she's like that. I also thought it was bullshit how her and Rock survived getting fired at in the water, they should've been at least shot once i mean come on. 8.2/10.

The Nazis seemed to morph from Das Boot in the previous episode, to Monty Python in this.

I get revys past and all. Though im confused when shes basically like dont look down at me with the views of the ritch fat people and so forth when it wasint those peoples opinions it was rocks and I actually agree with rocks speech more and he wasint like "accept this and next time you speak your mind fuck you and I might kill you" witch is what basically revy did and kinda came off a bit annoying on her part. Again I get why she feels that way but you dont have to be a dick about it.

I really enjoy watching this show. I hope it continues to evolve in the dark, thought-provoking aspect and not just focus on guns and violence part.

I really liked this episode. Delved into Revy's past and her way of thinking. Going by her past, I can understand why she values money so much.

I also really like how Rock bringing morality into the story is basically a conflict to the Lagoon Company's lifestyle which is that of a pirate.

Even if they didnt die from lack of oxygen, they had no food. And that sub was down there for 50 years. How was it not filled up with water? Surely at some point the pressure would have collapsed the hatch.

Now I remember what the ED reminds me of, "Monster"
Anyway was an alright episode, even if there was no air I doubt a sub could still be in that shape after over 50 years.

Also didnt expect Revy to be Chinese.

I think the fact why they showed the gun fight between the Nazi soldiers, would imply that they all died by killing themselves. So this kind of supports the argument why they were able to breathe. Anyways, it's just a slight detail, the major turning point will take place in the next episode.

And, Chinese Revyy.

Yeah, Revy basically told Rock not to piss her off with his opinions anymore or she'll put lead in him. Surely she doesn't have to listen to him, but her reaction and the way how Rock obediently agreed was kind of... weak. I get it, she had a rotten childhood, but that doesn't make her more right than others.

Also kind of ridiculous how they didn't get hit a single time when they got sprayed by machine guns while in the water. Plot armor much?

Didn't know Revy was chinese. One of the few problems with anime, you can never tell nationality easily.

Rocks innocence/ moraity and Revys 'psychoness' are too cliche but if you think about the different lives theyve led then it makes sense

Yes, especially when he's complaining about something (which is almost everytime...). He's gotta be a little bit more useful...
Lost my fff mind when he dropped the painting. I hate the cliché 'butter hands' scenes in animes or movies, can't think of anything more annoying than that...

Please don't let the protagonist's goody two shoes moral conflicts constantly slow the plot and hinder the other characters for the rest of the show. I'm so tired of characters like him.

There is 2 incoherence in this episode :

- Oxygen
- 1959 Nazi Medal.

- Oxygen : the crew die of lack of oxygen and not in a gun fight. We can see a guy in his bed, just for exemple.
- 1959 Nazi medal : Revy show a medal to Rock and talk about souvenirs and other things. There is a date in this medal : 1959. It's impossible. All the story was in 1945 like they say during all the episode !

So I think this episode was not create seriously. It's amateurism.

The issue Rock had was with the desecration of what was basically a grave for the soldiers by taking their personal possessions/medals (except the painting), not the act of stealing itself.

Revy's gotta chill, even if Rock was being a bit naive by bringing it up to her it's still fucked that she'd threaten him for doing so.

I know BL is nearly 20 years old so It's bound to have some outdated takes but I can't understand Rock's POV this episode at all tbh, Nazi's deserved everything they got and the desecration of their graves to go with it.

Good episode, loved hearing more on Revy's insight about her past and how cruel the world is, including the supposedly good people known as cops and how they look down on people below them and treated her like shit. Shows why she's not trustworthy of people she meets (even Rock right now) while having some inner insecurities of sorts. Shit is about to kick off next episode when the Lagoon Company storms in to get that fucking painting back for their job.
