Those flashbacks are still painful to watch.

Reiji is the hero this show needs. What a dad. Haruka is lucky to have characters like him that cares about her.

No. It's a direct sequel to Hand Shakers...so it carries all of the broken world-building, shattered writing, terrible episode structuring, shitty gimmick "characterization", and inexcusably warped visuals of that show. I don't recommend it.

umm, so many things to say about this episode. Most importantly that inevitable confession part got me boils me angry! how dare there is romance confession scene in GoHands show! grrrrr (...) feels weird to see but anyway before that I was even mad that why Haruka was even attempting to fight Yukiya to begin with?? As usual her stupidity never cease to amaze me. Also Yukiya seem too nice to the point he was actually okay to know that he wasn't their real child afterall. At least that lessen the drama or melodrama scenes unlike many other show could have done as far I've seen.

oh yeah another part was really tough to watch through those 3CGI chain battle especially the animation has finally started to looked weird and rushed especially during the battle and motorcycle scenes. Also not surprised with the deus ex machina at the end (that why chain didn't disappear after he got defeated while the butler instantly did) and the show was even aware of that couldn't come with another idea.

But i dont want to watch handshakers because of that horrible ending where the kidnapper wasn't arrested and kept the girl.

Atleast thats what they say

I agree with the other guy, if you want to follow the story you kind of need to watch the hand shakers but really it not that bad, its just that usually K series fans come to hand shakers and they have a high expectation. im not saying hand shakers is a great series but its fine and perfectly watchable and i recommend it.
You might just want to overlook certain CG animations.

Also watch both anime in "high quality" since this show have a high use of CG animation and they look particularly bad in the low quality versions of the anime. (one of reasons of hate for this show)

Decent episode, but I didn't really get why Haruka was fighting Yukiya in the first place?

There you are, a confession. At last, goddamned it! But, lmao. The direction felt really hilarious. I can't take this episode seriously with the stupid way of Haruka and Yukiya had a chance to speak themself out. I mean yeah, the direction of this episode take too much trouble to bring such a sweet and romantic moment for them to confessed. Lmao. What a joke peek for me.

Atleast the binding chain had, once again, a nice development as a good parents for Yukiya. Yeah, the past of him by adopted Yukiya was expected by the look of a hooded man that really looks like a that Nielsen. No good twist. Its really expected, and the direction for the peek had a massive comedy joke on it that can't take a nice touchable moment for my satisfaction. At the end, the generical of the storyline still continued by facing a designation fight against Yukiya's real dad. The moment of truth began already!

Reiji had a really good showing here. Definitely better than his initial appearance, where he was just a starter antagonist that barely appeared.

Not sure why Haruka was fighting Yukiya in the first place. Seemed like a contrived setup for a confession, but there shouldn't be any more insecurity drama on her part now.
