THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
This episode is interesting.

Imo, the battle between Nicholas against Doug lasted a bit longer than I had thought. Also, is it just me or does Doug move really fast for such a guy? Well, not saying Nicholas is weak but yeah, that didn't go pretty. Hell, even the music used wasn't like the intense type the show was used to. Nice to see Ginger show up this week though.

Felt like there were some bromance moments between Nicholas and Worick near the end though. Poor Alex, that cliffhanger D:

Was that the prof at the end who might have captured Alex? What is going on?

Worick decides to help Doug as well, this is also interesting.

That lady is a badass, i didn't quite get her position in the city, but she seems to be very important. I would like to hear more about her from you guys based on this episode.

Nobody's gonna pick up the phone in the office, Worick. It seems like Alex really has been abducted... And Worick had to pick up that kid Doug too to have his injuries treated. Just couldn't leave him lying on the ground like that.

Man, these bros have been through so much shit in one day. All in a day's work, huh?

The fight was good, but I enjoyed seeing the guild "cleaning" the mess even more. Learning a little more about the Twilights was quite interesting.

Veronica takes the spotlight... I want to know even more about her now.

Liked how Doug was just left there; the guild seems to be an interesting bunch too.

That battle was freaking intense.....The kid truly impressed me by how he was neck and neck with a drug overdosed Nicholas so I'm glad that Worrick helped him (Part of me wants him to.join their team now lol)

Finding out about The Three Laws and these Twilight Guilds is what excited me the most though because now I really want to find out more things about them....The huge woman gave me the same vibes as Balalaika from Black Lagoon so that was a HUGE plus for me lol and the red haired chick was kinda hot too =o

The little past bits with Worrick and Nicholas was nice and man do I envy Worrick for banging and making out with that hot woman xD Still as of right now I think that apart from the Twilight stuff in really liking this psychological trauma bits with Alex and I really want to know what happened to her at the end of the episode

Aw man Alex got kidnapped... how the heck did that guy survive. Ihope the others look for her and not suspect that she left on her own.
The battle between Nicolas and Doug was great but nico overdosing isn't good.

I am interested in seeing the ranks of Ginger and that other woman. Ginger seemed like a airhead, but she could subdue A/0 Doug and Worick was cautious and weary of the other lady who seemed to be a boss of some sort.

I hope Alex is okay also. She is really starting to grow on me.

I thought the episode's fight was a bit dragged compared to the manga but still solid in terms of animation sequences. Did Alex really get captured? That is the question.

Wtf happened to Alex and dank new member of the Handyman incoming? The kid that fought Nicolas, he'd definitely make a great new addition to the team. Having to A/0 twilights would just make them even more op.

Great episode and intense fighting. Poor Nicolas, please stop overdosing.

Whose that super strong lady?

5/5.

Nic vs. Doug was so badass!


But a drug overdosed Nic was a bit too much to handle, even for him.


That Gina lady is probably the top shot of the town. Wonder who might Veronica exactly be. Also, did Alex just get kidnapped? o.O

Awesome action-packed episode. That A/0 vs A/0 fight was intense!
Kinda glad that Doug didn't die.


Ginger is so cute. I'm liking her already. Nice to see female dogtags also exist.
And her super speed ability seems interesting. I'd like to see her in action.

I don't think Alex got kidnapped. It was probably Dr. Theo. She was just hallucinating. After all, he was wearing a lab coat. My guess is that Dr. Theo just invited her to the lab. Also supporting this is that Nina was the only one in the Doctor's office before Nic, Worick, and Doug arrived

The fight went way beyond my expectations. I was expecting something quick, but it took up a good portion of the episode, which is pretty tight. I'm glad Doug didn't die, he's a dope character. Can't wait to see what his role in the series is now.

Good fight, also quite fluent animations from what I could tell.
Manglobe definitely showing some work here.

Would love to see Ginger fight seriously, she has quite the personality twist.

A lot better than any of the other episodes, and not just because it had some actual energy for the first time (helped by the presence of more than one song in the soundtrack). Also, why are all these intimidating/evil women in anime voiced by the same person? It's something I've started to notice, and its kinda ridiculous (though it does work, in fairness).

Another great episode.

The fight between Doug and Nic was great. Like how it took up most of the episode. That lady is serious business. Hell even Ginger looks like she doesn't play no games. Also now we know about the three laws.

Someone done kidnapped Alex. I hope she is alright. She doesn't do nothing amazing but I feel like she brings that human pov of the show.

6/5.

The fight was good, looks like Nick also has trauma that's why he's using those drugs.

Worick being best character again <3
Monroe's guard is like a young Worick, wonder if there's connection.

1. the doctor went to pick her up and she's just traumatizing

AWESOME, the battle, the thrill, the excitement, Gina is such a badass!!! Ginger too, she looked sweet but then when she took Worick's gun, at that moment her gaze was seriously scary!! On the other side Alex is also suffering... Another revelation about Veronica *_* the flashback at the beginning was also good!!

They've known each other for 20 years and Worick still tries to talk to Nic when he's got his back turned to him... When has that ever worked?

@xSanox - It's pretty faithful so far.

How come they leave one of their Guild members behind? Worick got more work because of that and didn't get to call Alex earlier.

Also, I really want to know what would happen to those who overdose a lot. Do they become uncontrollable and lose their senses?

That was an intense fight between Nic and Doug. I thought it was going to be one-sided but I'm glad to see Nic actually dealing with a challenge. Ginger looks like she'll be the type of character that's clumsy and timid but is able to get shit done when she needs to. And Gina is just plain scary. Hopefully Alex is ok, I highly doubt that guy she killed would still be alive......

I liked this episode. I don't like the name of the series though; in my opinion it should be called one of the following:
-The Handymen
-Worick and Nicolas
-Tags / Dog Tags

Don't know why.

Fantastic episode. Gangsta once again proving itself as the best of the season. Great characters, and a plot that appears to be much deeper than you'd first expect.

However, I'm worried that with only 12 episodes they won't be able live up to the potential of the story. They keep adding on new elements and characters, it just seems way to intricate to be that short. I really hope we get another season, this is my favorite new anime to come out in a while.

At least it will be damned enjoyable while it does last. Keep em' coming!

the girl nic visited 3(?) episodes ago is veronica i think and gina asked nic if he wants to end up like veronica with how much he is using the drug and and veronica from the little we have seen is really weak and bedridden

so the drug probably destroys your body
