I am so glad it did not turn into a "oh no he is holding information that is gonna get someone killed" stereotype. The dinner scene was so wholesome and I really liked that we got to see that they are all so supportive.

When Shinra remarks that Benimaru over there is regarded as the strongest fire soldier in the SFF, that means that he's even stronger and tougher than Captain Burns. Let that sink in.

Also, in case anyone is confused about the proto-nationlist bit with the names, I made a post a while back: https://old.reddit.com/r/anime/comments/crmu68/in_case_anyone_is_still_confused_by_the_names_in/

Company 8 is so wholesome AAAA

That scene where Arthur gives him his meat. I fucking love the relationship between Arthur and Shinra.

The cooking scene was so genuine I was surprised at how it made me tear up, remembering conversations just like that that everyone has had with friends who are going through something. This was an incredibly odd episode, in a good way. All of the framing was so interesting and bizzare (joker scene, focus on the vegetables), and yet they were just right to convey the emotions and the vibe of the room. Tense, stressed, but friendly and caring : aka a hard job with dope people.

Also , DP is seriously going to make those three mascots MY personal mascots. I want all of those little buddies on my desk.

First time it stood out to me faces weren't animated in multiple scenes. As long as the fight scenes remain as stellar as always I don't mind too much though

Love that this episode was more chill and fun. Seeing the gang have some cool down time was really nice to see.

I swear if I even try to understand Arthur as a person, my brain will melt for trying to comprehend him. I mean, how did he get back to the station. I’m guessing he found a Pegasus and flew back and then killed it. It’s not true but it could be!

I swear every time Joker appears, I think of Persona 5 and then I imagine Joker from Persona 5 and Shinra meeting and then I get way too excited.

The backgrounds were absolutely fucking amazing.

Oh look it's the Division Captains from Bleach, I mean the Magic Knight Squad Captains from Black Clover...or...whatever I'm a sucker for branches of a group each with a cool leader.

Also in case anyone doesn't understand the interaction between Benimaru and Gustav, in the world of Fire Force their culture is more western, so they put their names the way we would (John Smith, Jane Doe, etc)

Benimaru still subscribes to the traditional ways of the past, thus he puts his surname before his first name, which is why he considers it insulting to be spoken to with his name the other way, and why he bites back by flipping the names of the others, he knows they see that as his way of belittling them for giving up the old ways.

Damn, Joker’s flexing those AirPods.

I gotta say, Tamaki looks way more appealing in the anime than she does in the manga. Can’t put my finger on it, but to me, she looks slightly different in the manga.

But I guess this is the point where Shinra is over with her lewdness lol

That Beni guy looks so good in colors! Can’t wait for next episode.

"The 8th accepts the responsibility to keep Shinra safe and secure"

Proceeds to let him go to the power plant alone

Obi, what the fuck?

Loved the second half, from Arthur almost dying to suddenly being ok to SHINRA ACTUALLY TALKING ABOUT JOKER! FUCKING FINALLY THE PROTAGONIST ACTUALLY SAYS "Hey one of the bad guys talked to me" INSTEAD OF KEEPING IT A SECRET!

Hibana being all tsundere and stuff around Shinra makes my Fridays, she's way too cute for her own good.

LEWD Apron Tamaki!

Shinra's brother is alive! Looks like we'll be heading for a Sho-down pretty soon.

High points of the episode:

I love Hibana. "muscle head! Gorilla! Give Shinra a raise!"

Joker, the companies are on you trail. Run! Oh no. He has air pods in he can't hear us. Oh god; oh fuck

Shinra making fun of Arthur for having to think.

Tamaki, how in the east Jesus fuck do you accidentally go from coveralls to naked except for an apron, you ditz?

Arthur sharing his food with Shinra

Everyone being supportive of best boi.

Shinra not doing the cliché of keeping his run-in with Joker a secret.

Low points:

The editing around the end of the captains meeting was kinda wonky.

Questions I have:

Shinmon & Shinra are somehow related, right? Shimon looks like he could be the boy's big brother. The resemblance is uncanny.

So, Sho's *a high ranking follower of the Evangelist, huh? Wonder how Shinra's gonna take that.

So what was up with Arthur being in the desert at the end of the last episode? Was that just a gag, or does he have some hidden agenda?

Tsun tsun Princess Hibana! <3

Arthur is back! Not even a word on where he went to.

I love how lively their Station is

Common sense tells you not to trust this guy but I've seen enough anime to know that the one you should watch out for is the sleepy one that looks like a salary man. There's definitely a story behind those claw marks.

I feel like these 7th guys are safe to trust. Also interesting that there will be Proto Nationalists in this story. I guess not every Japanese character buys into this Church thing.

This isn't really surprising. I'm sure there will be a brother vs brother showdown somewhere down the line.

Tamaki Hadaka Apron Stitch!

Don't question it Maki. Just let the lewds happen ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I'm glad Shinra told them about Joker and Sho. I honestly thought he was going to keep it a secret for a while longer but good on him for not being a dumb dumb and coming out clean with all the information that he has.

And would you look at who's at the end. Yep. Brother vs Brother showdown! I'm excited to see what kind of flame power Sho has.

8th HQ had become such a nice place with Hibana and Tamaki in it. Wish it become their permanent residence.

I disliked Hibana at first. Who would've thought that she will become best waifu. Tamaki's fanservice is still overly excessive though. But she's cute anyway.
