The Severing Crime Edge

Not SUPER satisfied personally, but everyone can have their own opinions. Two scenes in particular caught me pretty off guard. One just lowkey had me disturbed. If you don't mind some pretty trigger-inducing stuff and the gore, this is totally the anime for you.

This one really hypes you up for the final episode. A lot of stuff happened totally in clutch, and I really love the fact that you can't really tell which character has dug their own grave. The tension is pretty thick, and the animation is amazingly disturbing.

This episode is more dialogue focused more than anything and heavily focused on lore. It was cute, but A little weird to see Yamane and Kiri bond a bit. Even though there's no real intense action, the episode still manages to keep one engaged to see where things will go.

I did not expect the newly introduced character to pack such a punch, but they totally did. The duel was intense, and the outcome was something I hadn't really predicted. The revelations in this episode really make you anticipate what this story is gonna shape into.

Definitely had some unexpected moments in this one, the pacing is consistent throughout and keeps you on edge. My girl Iwai is always getting pushed around like A football, though, and it was cool to see Kiri's soft side, too. Decent episode, the vibes be sadge.

Ah, yes, walk straight into A party organised by people who supposedly GOSSIP (you see what I did there?) about wanting to kill you, things will definitely be completely fine. Props to Iwai for still keeping that positive attitude about her. Nakajima is quite an interesting adversary; his voice actor does a pretty decent job. The action was a bit repetitive and lacking, but besides that, it was A pretty good episode.

Houka is quite a well-written character, and one can definitely see how well she's been showcased in this episode. Her struggles and frustrations seem pretty valid for all that she has been through and the responsibilities she has had to shoulder. This episode totally builds up your curiosity for the next one!

Pretty kinky, pretty smart on the enemy end of things - they really went with the "beat fire with fire" strategy. Kiri is really pretty savage at times, and I love that for him. The banter was stupidly hilarious, too. The action was sick af. Someone, please, get my man, Romio, a bandage.

Mandatory school trip episode. The animation is pretty clean, some scenes are especially pretty, and the pacing picks up a bit more. This one had me relating to A particular character on a spiritual level. The tension definitely ramps up in quite a questionable way. So, you'd best be ready not to watch this episode with someone!

The pacing dips A bit due to the sudden lack of action. The subtle reveals, however, keep you curious enough to keep watching. The introduction of new characters is pretty well done; you can't really tell if they're supposed to be adversaries or not.

This episode really picks up the pacing, and it is totally an anime that isn't really family friendly. The introduction of the new adversary was nicely done, really builds on that tense vibe. The episode also manages to bring in a bit of humour, which is well appreciated. The action is pretty much on point.

The revelations in this episode made it simple to understand the plot of the anime. It's simply put, but also pretty disturbing. The episode definitely had a bunch of "wtf did I just witness" moments to it. The emotions are intense, the gore is decently done, and the plot makes you curious about what's gonna happen next.

Pretty much what I had expected from the title of the anime. The animation was surprisingly fluid at times, and the art style is decent enough to get used to. The soundtrack peaks towards the end, giving you that satisfying feeling to fit the mood. I did not expect that spike in intensity, but it totally caught me off guard. Can't wait for more! Kiri is definitely a bit of an interesting character.

This final ep is an absolute emotional rollercoaster and a wild ride to wrap up the season!

The pacing is unhinged, but honestly, that unhinged energy is exactly why I’m still locked in.

This episode is a whole slow burn and I am here for it.

This ep is a wild, intimate ride and honestly, the tonal whiplash is real.

A solid, narrative-shifting transition into the endgame.

his ep is a total psychological descent, and the tonal shift hits like a truck.

This ep is honestly such a pivot, and the sudden shift to the side characters’ dynamics is a total mood.
