I'm really liking the characters so far. Gero is actually so funny and I love his dynamic with Kinosaki. Really fun and action-packed episode.

Another journey for Hikaru to find his soulmate. This episode shows how he’ll achieve it. Fast-paced with action fights from mid to end. Ends on a cliffhanger! No filler episodes unrelated to the story. Continues straight from the previous episode.

The fact that Gero is such a badass when it comes to fighting people but at the same time becomes a huge dork and idiot when he needs to interact with a woman is GOLD😭✨ and the high speed action paired with the really smooth animation is just so good, and they really displayed that during the battle Gero had with the enemy🔥

This episode is ok, a bit more faster pace but solidly introduces some lore to the poison master so not everyone is just ---- master with a specialty

Kinosaki Mei continues to be the cutest, but this ep also shows that Mei is a seriously solid mentor for Gero! The date rehearsal was equal parts cringe and fun 😂 But in the end, all that practicing did somewhat bring out Gero's charm~?! He has cool moments here ♥ Overall, this episode is a good blend of drama, action, and worldbuilding. I can't wait to see what's next!

Un episodio divertido que nos muestra más del mundo un tanto "ridículo" en el que transcurre el anime. Y aunque se haya enfocado en la comedia, también tiene buenos momentos de acción.

M e está gustando este duo , creo que funcionan bastante bien juntos y se complementan . El ritmo sigue bien y los momentos divertidos le dan aire fresco a la trama.

Kinosaki is such a perfect wingman, I love hearing them give advice to Gero! It's been really fun to watch how Gero interacts with feminine Kinosaki compared to other women. I'm excited to see what this new character thinks of Gero.

Grabe, ibang level talaga yung animation ng Marriagetoxic. Ang ganda ng pagkakagawa ng mga fight scenes, ang interesting ng dialogue ng mga characters. Naiisip ko lang why not si Gero at Kinosaki na lang nag mag-date? Although alam ko babae hinahanap ni Gero. Still, they're cute.

Oke, pertama soundtracknya sangat bagus. Kedua, Gero, my guy, kenapa kau sangat awkward? Mungkin perempuan adalah salah satu racun yang belum bisa kau atasi ya? Hahaha. Kenapa saya juga sekarang nge-ship dia dengan Kinosaki? Akhhhh

Hikaru is both socially awkward outside of work, and socially aware during work as an assassin. It’s quite endearing. I love how Mei is helping him with his dating life, and him getting coached while heading to his next assignment is peak. Fight scenes are very well done.

The action was super slick but honestly the highlight for me was seeing a legendary assassin struggle so hard with basic social cues.

If you have not read the source material you need to GO READ THE MANGA RIGHT NOW! The way they animated that hand scene was crazy good but seriously please give the manga a try!

Gero is so freaking awkward and I'm here for it 🥹 it's so cute how he's dedicated to finding a lifelong partner even though he's panicking every damn second.

EPISODE CONTEXT

Coming off Episode 1's introduction of Gero and Kinosaki's unlikely partnership, this episode begins developing the mechanics of their dynamic and expanding the world around them. The arrival of a new character suggests the series is moving beyond a simple two-person show toward a broader ensemble. What gets established here — tonally and relationally — appears to lay critical groundwork for the challenges and encounters ahead.
