Oh man, this episode was crazy

The fighting and drama escalated already just from the first half at the prisoners. This was a dream come true for the prisoners though seeing it's a chance for a mass breakout. Poor Yoshitake, he always seems to end up as a butt monkey in this type of show lol

One of the most intense episodes I've seen this season so far. I'm still really glad to see Sugimoto kick ass as usual.

Ushiyama is such a troll, love that guy.

Well, shit went down in this episode. Releasing so many prisoners was definitely a bold move and seeing how Sugimoto took that bayonet made me cringe a bit.

Blue eyes, he finally found the real Nopperabo.

Wow this episode was super intense. So much shit going on but this show still managed to find some places to insert some comedy (like Sugimoto and Shiraishi making the same sound as the fake Nopperabo when he pointed at the fire). I'm going to miss this show but at the same time I'm really looking forward to the finale now that Sugimoto has found the real Nopperabo.

Lol at Ushiyama's fakeout death, I was convinced for a second.

This episode was insane, so great! The action scenes were nice, the comedy as well and the OST was very good too.

The moment Kadokura released all the prisioners, I was like "ohhh shit" xD It was so good. And Sugimoto finally met Nopperabo. I wonder how he will manage to reunite him with Asirpa since both Sugimoto and him are in a deplorable state.

One more ep. to go and I'm really looking forward to it. I just hope this anime receives a third season soon.

P.S.: Where's Ogata, by the way? I don't really like this, something feels odd...

Very good episode. Always love seeing Sugimoto fight.

The anime only fans are going to be shocked in the last episode that's next for this season. I can't wait to see your reactions! :)
Hopefully they'll eventually have a season 3. There may be enough chapters in the manga for a third, unless the animation studio plans to keep cutting out story arcs...

Also they didn't mention it in the anime, but in the manga Usami reveals that he made the stick figure draws on his face into tattoos, in case anyone was wondering why he still had them in this episode.

So they did carve out Nopperabo's face, too bad I won't see it.

Poor Sugimoto he's crawling to bring him to Asirpa, such dedication from the man is inspiring. I hope there won't be any further betrayals aside from Hijikata, that will come from Sugimoto's team. I wonder where is Ogata from this chaos though?

Ogata is planning something, that's what happens when you don't see Mr. Pretty Boy for an entire episode. People keep saying that Kiro-chan is going to betray Asirpa-chan but I have a feeling it's going to be someone else.

Finally, we got to see the real blue-eyed Nopperabo. I can't wait to see him and Asirpa reunite.

Ushiyama's my fave for being so extra, bidding Tanigaki and Inkarmat goodbye then flinging away that falling debris like it was nothing.

I'm reading the manga now and they left out so many things. I wish they will make a third season.

Already bought vol 1, this was great.
Will probably give the show 10/10 even if it skipped stuff, you can just feel at least some effort is put into the adaptation.

What an intense episode this was, with allegiances still not fully clear (still hard to say if Kiroranke can be trusted, at the very least) and all hell breaking loose. But, now that Sugimoto has found Nopperabo we should be in for an interesting final episode.

Ushiyama had me fooled. I thought that he was sacrificing himself to save Tanigaki and Inkarmat from the falling debris, but he just flung it off of him like it was nothing, only mentioning about how dusty his jacket got. That's why I like him! XD

This episode had everything that I wanted to see, action-wise. From gunfire, flares and also bayonets, everything was intense and thrilling at the same time. I'm still happy that the episode was able to fit in the small funny moments that make me chuckle, even in an episode this intense.

Poor Sugimoto took a rather painful stab to his mouth and his foot took a bullet as well, but he easily fended off and battered Nikaidou. As he was crawling to the chapel, he encountered the real Nopperabo with his blue eyes. With Sugimoto now crawling, I do wonder how he'll get Nopperabo and Asirpa to meet up.

Either way, it's already shaping up to be one hell of a final episode, that's for sure! ^_^

Man, that was crazy and intense episode. They finally found Nopperabo!

Fight between Nikaidou and Sugimoto was brutal. There's nothing Sugimoto can't survive, he's a beast.

Yess, that was awesome.
I doubt there would be anything left of Tsurumi's men facing off with 700 prisoners in real world, but this is Golden Kamuy so they will make it out alive somehow.
I'm only hoping we will get some nice closure in the last episode, just in time for Christmas, although season 3 would be nice as well.

2 reasons IMO.

MAL loves its big hyped productions. Some of those start with impossibly high scored from day one and as long as they dont mess up the adaptation, they end up high. Golden Kamuy is simply not a big property.

Reason 2 is just that Golden Kamuy is too different to be big. It's a historical drama with lots of action, very dark humour and ultra violent. On top of that it has NO teenage characters other than Asirpa. That's a big negative for many. There's no self insert possibilities. And there's no fanservice or bishojo characters that draw a certain crowd either . IN short, waaay too out there to get a big score.

For a second there I thought Ushiyama was going to get crushed, what a troll. And at this point Nikaidou should be called Nikaidou the Immortal lmao, he just keeps piling on the body parts he's losing lmao. And that ending boy, I don't know what's going to happen next. That was an amazing episode.

Best episode. Full of action, full of conspiracy, full of revelations, but never forgot to slip a crispy joke over their shitty situations. Sugimoto kept his plot armour effectively. While the others supporting characters just ridiculously had their own moments really nice. Nonetheless, i hopefully wished Nopperabo just made himself met to Asirpa, beside whatever shit happened to him, and Sugimoto. I really wishes there were no more betrayal. Its such a bad tastes on my mouth seeing that hurted scenes. However, its served nice as a plot twist. So, i really appreciated everything that happened on this episode. Surely i might be rated this show 10/10 again. However, the opening and ending theme song had a decreasing satisfaction for me. Asirpa action has been reduced too. Such a shame! Well to be fair, if i am a bit of overwhelming a 10/10 shall be better. However, not on these one. I keep on my objective judgement, by quite dislike their ost here. The art and animation felt off too, sometimes, still its had a lot of an improvement. However, at my terms, there was still some lack. So, for my own good, 9/10 must be enough for these second cours. Not others word for me.

Also, one more question, Ogata, were you still alived? On to the last episode!

Nikaidou losing more body parts lol, he probably needs a side story about him dealing with all the missing body parts.Besides that, awesome episode, Action, Suspense and that scene with the 700 criminals, bloody hell! Sugimoto taking that blade through his mouth was badass! But heck did i feel it, made me cringe a bit. Next is the last episode for this season OwO
