THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
The beginning of a new arc starts now.

Shaft still hasn't dropped the ball on the visuals in fact it looks better than ever. Its great to see in 4 episodes we still have such a creative staff on the team.

As for the episode itself this is very interesting. The set up for a new mystery is upon us as Dojima finds some money laying on the ground.

Money, scamming, gambling, games, and beautiful bunny girls. I am excited for whats to come. A good first episode to the new arc.

A new story arc, and another mysterious Bishounen (Rai Fudatsuki) who looks and appears to be rich on the external, but is in fact the Student Council president of another schol on the inside.

The case of money and a "reasonable doubt(ing)" casino, how can Bishounens say no to a case? The counterfeit banknote that hides an invitation within it, the Pretty Boy Detective Club dressing in plain clothes fashion, and it's even more pretty.

Manabu keeping tabs on Dojima's ability and not allowing her to gamble is a crucial part, and Fudatsuki's intercepting is part-and-parcel of the exchange, even if it looks innocent with a playful mind.

The "Special Program/Stage" between Fudatsuki and Nagahiro, and it's simultaneously a cheating game that's hidden from view: the stagehand that Dojima can only see with her eyes, the naked beauty.

Would be interesting to see where this will go.

The more I think about Doujima, the more I realize that the only good part of her is her eyesight.

An illegal casino where you can gamble the casino itself? Too bad there was no hardcore pachinko (xD), but well seems like there is some kind of weird magic cheat to win, I wonder what Doujima will do to stop them, she's the only one who's able to see that trick

They really caught up on the counterfeit money quickly. Expected from the detective club. Sousaku is a really quiet guy. He doesn't talk much.
A casino is a place for aesthetics..? True. Everyone's looking so pretty in the casino. Having their own fun time. That special program was something else. Also, this means that the manager was cheating, not surprising but the fact someone was standing right behind Sakiguchi was really creepy. Doujima stood up. What's she gonna do?

Another ee, again the only true Nisio's masterpiece. Gambling arc for you. Another character appears, a case for Pretty boys. perfect boys <3 quick development this time, and a cliffhanger. The club is in danger? And Mayumi? This case is going to be surprising, looing forward to watch is, as a manga and nove reader.

That bunny girl was very cute. I didn't think she'd shout like that, I wonder what the audience's reaction will be. They probably won't believe her at first but the pretty boy detective club will prove it.

Damn, those are some sick hand moves by cat(?) ear person to telegraph opponents' cards to the manager, sign language has hit its peak.

If the manager is cheating and Dojima using her sight is the author cheating whenever the plot needs to move forward, is this an infamous case of cheatception?

'I'm not knowledgeable, all I have is aestheticism' is the new - and improved - 'I don't know everything, I just know what I know'.

The show is looking as pretty as ever and, despite their uniform also having a blazer and tie, somehow I feel this episode really catered to people's formalwear fetish that I definitely don't have. Truly an utsukushii development.

I liked the episode but I wish they wouldn't keep emphasizing that everyone is a middle schooler. Already trying to suspend my disbeileif over here. Still I wonder how this trick will be explained

Pretty good episode! As a Kaiki fan, I love that talk about the counterfeit money being more real than the real thing. Fudatsuki spending who knows how much for those invitations means he really do be making a lotta dough.

Sotoin must be the most charismatic 5th grader I have ever seen lmao. Those don't look like "plain" clothes to me, I guess it is for the rich. Another week, a new episode of admiring Hyota's legs, no homo. Mayumi gasping so much at the end though lmao, I wonder what kind of trickery Fudatsuki is pulling to be able to do that. Mayumi's eyes are wall hacks, I love it. It's time for Mayumi The Seer to solve the case. Looking forward to the next episode.

Does this mean that Fudatsuki also has Doujima's view?

I liked their clothing.

That bunny girl called my attention.

Lol all of Mayumi’s gasps at the end when she saw the shadow person was too much. The visual style and direction continues to stand out as one of the most unique in anime. It definitely carries this anime.

The fact everyone involved is supposed to be in middle school makes everything infinity funnier. KIDS' CASINO. MIDDLE SCHOOL GAMBLING. CHILDREN DOING FRAUD. This is ridiculous. Love it.

I thought the first mystery arc with the MILITARY CONSPIRACY??? AND FUCKING NUKE???? was going to be a bigger deal but apparently not, since we've moved past that completely.

The MC's chain of reactions at the end had me dying, my god.

We moved to the conflict quickly it seems, this show isn't afraid to establish an efficient pace. I'm a fan.

But how do you prove the existence of a person only you can see? This will be interesting.

I can’t get over how beautiful everyone looks. They took the “pretty boy” thing very seriously and I love it. The episode just highlights it’s beauty even more with the bright casino setting and I’m interested to how mayumi will be able to prove what she can only see


Never watched as much anime as I wanted to

I guess the manager has some kinda power similar to Doujima's good eyesight.

Anyway, this episode was kinda boring. Previous arc was better.
