EPISODE REVIEWS

The lore keeps building so well, same for the cast. This anime has become an underrated favorite of mines. Loving the story, worldbuilding and animation.

Chuji and Tomoka together is hilarious. These two can spat whatever at each other and it will still be funny. Not gonna lie, the way to get Kou is such a brilliant move from the other team. I just hope the gang can fight and kick Ginji's ass.

Yeah, and with that we got four misfits now! Now a new stealth mission has been unlocked, to retrieve Kou's katana Murasame. The ending kind of ruins the entire episode though. The girl we see from time to time that narrates the story basically removes the mystery, like reading a few chapters ahead you spoil the story for yourself that way. The visuals for the time it came out still holds true, even if some characters tend to be a bit lopsided.
