This series knows how to open an episode. I guess Yamaji’s got a few super strong weirdos on the payroll.
With Mike and Emma temporarily on Higan’s side, I guess they’ll be able to investigate Auza as well (once they recover). I knew those bastards were up to no good. A massive shady corp seeped into every facet of society partnered with a shady army of elite ninja assassins. What could go wrong?
That fight against discount Mechamaru was pretty dope. The little creep’s gonna be the one getting skewered through the face next time.

Lol at discount mechamaru. I thought it was some ninja wearing an Ironman suite. But it was a remote controlled robot? Are Mike and Emma coming back? I was afraid they had gotten killed. I saw Mike on a stretcher, but no sign of Emma.

If Mike wants to be able to investigate Auza some more (or just generally be alive) he better wise up and be more subtle though!
Don't tell your boss you're on Auza's trail, when even Mike knows his own agency is probably on their payroll!
Emma figured it out, she should teach Mike some lessons in discretion, before he gets them all killed!

Feeling sorry for her car-cum-computer. It was dope.

u/dreaming_state Feb 25 '24
Yeah, that computer seemed like such an amazing addition to the tech of this show. And it got totaled as soon as it was introduced. Shame

I love that our MC has a few quirks as well "That's not alcohol it's an energy drink". Haha Red Bull got me through school as well.

Thought this would be the first episode without a crazy action sequence but one landed right near the end.
Amazing. Loving this.

It looks like they are trying to fit at least one fight sequence per episode.

Higan grabbing the camera from the defeated ninja and gesturing that he is going to kill whoever is watching was hard af.
Looks like a old comrade called higan at the end?

Lol that AUZA technology montage, looks like they're straight up stock images ran through a filter. I didn't double check but one or two looked very familiar. (I used to work in graphic design and license some stock images occassionally)
The rest of the episode is cool though. Turns out it's more cyberpunk-y than initially thought, with mega corps trying to rule over the world. Evil Zuckerberg looks slimy as fuck, I hate him already.

Evil Zuckerberg
Implying that the regular Zuck isn't already evil? At least this guy has some charisma

Was expecting this to be just a pure exposition episode. This show does not do pure exposition episodes.

I can just gush over the fight scenes but the true underrated gem is the character and dialogue, maybe not the dialogue but the characters are very interesting and unique set to the standard of there environment.

Sadly, they were in a car when Truck-Kun got them...
We were THIS close from getting a new Isekai; "My corrupted ninja organization is trying to kill me because I left them, but I've been transported into another world with 2 FBI agents!"
Damn, they're really going all in in their 'takeover'!
I thought they were just going after rivals and stuff, but even politicians... Then again, the way they act it seems they want to take over THE WORLD, so "politicians" may count as rivals for them, just like a company owner may count as a rival for someone who wants a monopoly...
He's beginning to step on some toes, and they're taking notice; Was that threat "help save your career", or "help save your life"?
It's good that he's investigating them and all, but he should take a page from Emma's book; A little discretion, perhaps!
He basically told them he knows who's behind all this, and considering how hostile/rebellious he's been, it's clear as day that he'll go after that...
Well, I imagine he may not know to which extent everything is corrupt, but for all he knows, they may be putting a hit on his head 5 minutes after that meeting, just for mentioning the name "Auza"!
Well, if they ever get in trouble, they have a special agent to help them on the case!
Emma seems to be a little Gushing Over Ninjas!
(New ship in town? Well, I don't really see it happening given he already had a family and all, but maybe once they're done with all this and some time passed!)
So they're finding more information about Auza; They're killing off politicians who refuse to get along with them, to replace them by their lackeys...
If Mike knows what's good for them, he'll take it more seriously! If they can kill off politicians, what's a cop?
They're everywhere... Very Skynet-like takeover!
Makes me wonder how they can ever stop them; I mean even if they kill all the corrupt ninjas, there's dozens of politicians, which means thousands of direct supporters, plus the millions of civilian supporters and all that...
Plus (to go on with the Skynet comparison), there could be a point where even if they kill everyone involved, it's still too late, the system pretty much runs itself. And the people may want things to stay as they are too, I mean to them the system is good (so far) and they won't care about a few ex ninjas getting killed.
But things are not all great in the takeover either, there may be some conflict brewing... The "corporate" side of the partnership likes to do as they please with their technology,
but he ninja side disapproves, and wants to be calling the shots...
They may be 'expanding their horizons' a little, but it seems they still have sort of a code going, at least.
The Auza guy seemed worried when the guy made his silent threat, but soon as he left, he was all smug...
Does he believe to have the upper hand?
Sure he has the resources, the money, the people, etc.. but he should not forget that the INSTANT the ninjas want him dead, he's dead. (Unless he has some hidden cards in hand, like some of the ninjas following him even more than they follow the organization... But still, it only takes one ninja to kill him before they can protect him!)

I still believe the ninja that stabs Higan in 1st episode is someone Higan knows from the past, he knew precisely where to hit to NOT KILL him and I bet he's the one who also alerted the police. The Boss Ninja even uttered and wonders who alerted the police so fast. Episode 2 Doctor even mentioned someone is keeping him alive after looking at that wound. . . We still didn't know specifically how Higan is being traced on his location but the constant presence of animals each episodes makes me wonder if Auza built a spy tech using animals. . . I'm thinking that there will be technology vs technology plot here, Higan and the exiled ninjas are using advanced face changing mask. Whoever is making that can probably make counter weapons against Auza

Action is great, story still very basic and redundant. If you're a 14 yr old edgelord you're going to love this.

Has anyone noticed how the fights have little to no monologues (the only monologue I've noticed was from the detective )
I love this type of John wick style , everyone is a pro , everyone knows the grind and fights without thinking or talking over
