QUICK TAKES

VerifiedWhile the first half was a bit more low-key & chill compared to the previous bangers, it was the perfect breather after all that high intense chaos at the lab. Are we finally getting that Lu spotlight momint or what?

VerifiedStarts chill with a hot spring trip but turns chaotic real quick. The “vacation” keeps getting interrupted in a funny way. New/old faces pop up too, adding a bit of tension. Not super serious, just a fun, goofy ep.

VerifiedThis one's more laid-back and comedy focused after all the chaos. The bathhouse bits were goofy but fun, and the new character brings a different kind of challenge that isn't just punching. Feels like a setup episode, but still entertaining and easy to watch.

VerifiedAfter the intense lab events, the amateur hitman’s comedy felt somewhat underwhelming. Episode 10 feels like a 50/50 split—part filler, part setup. Still, I’m intrigued by the mafia’s network and how they’re able to trace who put the bounty on Sakamoto.
cinnaverse
VerifiedI immediately looked forward to this episode mainly because onsen/beach episodes are a lot of fun to watch, and I was not disappointed! Overall, this is a much needed break from the hard pacing of previous episodes and the subtle hint of what comes next for the main plot was good.
pendragon
VerifiedWhat makes this episode work is its shift in perspective. The world feels bigger. Assassins aren't lone wolves anymore, they're part of a network with rules and oversight. It adds weight to future encounters, with an invisible hand guiding the danger toward Sakamoto's family.

VerifiedThey just survived a collapsing lab and someone STILL comes for them at the bathhouse. The audacity. This ep gives the crew a needed breather and the mysterious man searching for Lu at the end? The plot thickens in the best way. Also the comedy here slaps. I recommend watching!❤

Fun half of the episode hahaha it was chaotic and fun on the bathhouse. Also the animation was crisp on this one it really captures the characters emotions. And also a banger episode for Lu, will we get her background story on the next episode? Cant wait yipeee!

It's one of those episodes where it's like a sub-story/filler episode. Nonetheless, the comedic scenes of Sakamoto days does not disappoint as always. The action scenes were created well and the plot of the episode was creative!

EPISODE CONTEXT
Coming off the intense confrontations aboard the train in Episode 9, this penultimate episode gives the cast a deliberate cooldown while seeding the next conflict — a new figure with ties to Lu emerges, raising the stakes just before the Season 1 finale. As Episode 10 of 11, it functions as the bridge between the action-heavy middle stretch and whatever climactic payoff Episode 11 delivers, balancing comedic downtime with narrative setup.
