Dammmmmmn! Katsushiro is on his prime right now! That fight sequence were just so taste full to watch. Bassically we gonna see the saying of "the foe of my foe is my ally" . still thinking about poor Rikichi.

Funny even the old enemy asked help to its enemies no turned allies, that's how Ukyo is dangerous and feared by the very person who raised him, really interesting. This episode is spreading real and harsh truths about other people used woman. I like how in some tiny scenes this ep shows hope for the future. But those who bear the responsibility to avenge the people are in great despair, knowing it wont end well.

I feel like this episode pacing is a bit slower than the rest, but also necessary. This is because, this episode feels like a preparation before a big battle, where we should know where everyone is, and which character are in which group as they enter. But from a character stand point, I think this is the spiralling that we need from Katsushiro, the build up for his eventual character development later. I do wonder how do you pull a character that's spiralling like this tho.
