Oedo Fire Slayer: The Legend of Phoenix Episode 9: A Disturbing Spark of Fire

I can't believe they framed Gengo for all that it's just so messed up

So Gengo really got framed and now everyone thinks he’s Kitsunebi, the injustice in this episode is something else.

Man, this episode was a gut punch seeing Gengo's past but his team really stepped up when he was in trouble.

The atmosphere of this show is something else, really pulls you into the era. Some dark turns this ep that added a lot of weight to the story

I wish there's a review option for something that is good but not great nor mid, so in between lol. This ep was decent tho, the story is building up nicely

EPISODE CONTEXT

Arriving at episode nine of twelve, this installment follows the escalating confrontations with Foxfire and the revelation surrounding the arsonist's identity, pivoting the story from external threat to internal crisis as Gengo himself falls under Shogunate police suspicion. It marks a critical turning point in the season, the political pressure built here directly sets the stage for the large-scale catastrophe threatening to engulf Edo in the episodes ahead.
