What a creepy character. The guy with the horns running his mouth...I can't stand him.

Thrilling episode though especially with the drama and fight that developed. Seeing the Nakamachi family in action was a delight to see. Good amount of action this episode. Can't wait to see more of Eleonore fighting again next episode.

There is something that has been bothering me but can't the automata just destroy the huge ass shuttle on the top of the train not to mention just destroy the tracks. I mean there are a million possibilities. Ik it's an anime meant to be fictional but plot holes like these just make it look stupid. I had high expectations for it but it is such a huge letdown. Tho I'll watch it till the end as I have already started it.

Well, there goes all the deathflags, Pantalone was the best, he didn't deserve to die :(. Pantalone had the best laugh till the end. I wonder how's Masaru doing right now.

First, Only the spider automaton was fast enough to catch up with the train (And the one that was with said spider is somewhere fighting with Masaru).

Second, Pantalone and Arlequino went on their own to earn time fighting those freaks, and Pantalone managed to make Harlequin go crazy so he would just go for "Francine" instead of focusing on the "mission" that he wasn't going to do anyway.

So no, they can't destroy the shuttle because they got distracted or weren't fast enough for that matter. There wasn't any "plot hole" here, just things that simply didn't go the way you wanted. (I wouldn't call that a "plot hole" anyway, call it convenient for that matter if you want)

Pantalone sure pushed the ever laughing Harlequin to snap, and on top of that he died laughing, something he never did before. As for Arlequino I really hope it isn't it for him, because I want him to find love.

As for the Nakamachi trio, you really were great performing acts. RIP to you!

Damn, Harlequin was so triggered. Pantolon may have lost the battle but I think he's won the war.

The Nakamachi circus appear to have died destroying the spider woman, and Pantalone has also died. It also appears that Arlequino may be dead as well.

Harlequin has caught up to Shirogane and Narumi. Will Shirogane be able to stop him?

I'm very confused about Lady Spider, why did she look like their mother? In wikipedia says that she "changes her face to confuse them" or something along those lines but that's never shown nor mentioned. Anybody knows the answer?

Interesting how Pantalone acknowledged that Shirogane is not Lady Francine. That would mean he's been serving her even though he knew that she was someone else.
Unless that's just the automata instincts kicking in to serve someone who resembled Francine.
I wonder if Arlequino was thinking the same thing as Pantalone in that regard.

Also, I think Arlequino is not dead yet, just incapacitated, so maybe next episode might confirm this???
RIP the Nakamachi's and Pantalone, y'all did your best.
I'm tired -_-

More buildup to the climax! What an exciting time to be alive after persevering for THIS LONG! The payoff is getting more satisfying.

The Nakamichi Circus trio, knowing that they cannot outwit Lady Spider, plays their trump card: a regular circus show! Buying more time from Fou. Just loving how its THAT easy to distract the Automata. Mission accomplished for them!

On the other side, Pantalone and Arlequino are fighting off their comrades who haven't turned the way to Francine/Eleneore/Shirogane. Interesting take that Pantalone laughed at Harlequin's objections after learning all of Shirogane. Simply the best form of revenge and super entertaining. RIP Pantalone, you're a great comrade.

Next episode, Shirogane's turn to fight. GIMME THE NEXT EPISODE RIGHT NOW!

@papsoshea I eat your words heartily well. Impressive!

Finale is gearing up with high stakes. Rip Pantalone. At last he laughed wholeheartedly.
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because.
