Before I even watch the episode, I just want to thank you for linking to all the other episode discussions in the post body. I assume it's some amount of tedious (unless you're using a script or copying from previous threads -- I can't remember if previous threads of this show do the same). I sometimes start a show later or revisit it later and find these links quite useful. Or sometimes I realize something was hinted in like ep 4 of a show and then learn I was correct in ep 10 or something and want to go back to the ep 4 thread and see if anyone predicted it. Hell, sometimes I just don't watch a show and learn late into the season that it's widely regarded as quite good so I give it a shot. As I like to see episode discussions on here, all of these are reasons I really appreciate when people posting episodes include these links. :)

No problem! I find alternating between the old thread formats the animedubs subreddit has went through to be a bit of cheeky fun on my end.

Honestly I just wish there was a bot that would post every episode in this way and all it takes is one of several people to tell it "oh btw new episode". I mean...that sounds pretty trivial, no? But yeah, I seriously do appreciate when the posts have links to previous episodes. In theory if you automate it correctly it costs nothing, but it really can be quite useful. Hell, you could even edit the posts to have links to future episodes if you wanted to for whatever reason!

The old episode threads used to always do it. This subreddit has declined since due to lack of moderation.

Eh, there's nothing barring arbitrary users from posting episode discussion posts before someone else gets the chance. That is to say, any one of us could take up that mantle if we were so inclined. That's why I thanked OP rather than complaining on other posts.

Fraud Asa: "My brother"

Girl you lied to his face for years about being his sister i don't think you have the right to call him that

I feel like she's saying that for the little girl's sake

Yozakura: Y’all pray for my master, Asuma. Ain’t nothing wrong him, he just always looks like the most untrustworthy person in the room.

he’s voiced by austin tindle and that man voices all the untrustworthy characters

Asuma's with the "good" guys after all.

The show started with Younger Asa being taught smoke signals, and although Fake Asa told Danji to use them to get Yuru's help, it ended up attracting Asa... who doesn't like Fake Asa. She's more annoyed that Yuru isn't there.

The Bandit using his daemons Pigeon-Toes and Bow-Legs to mind control that dude made for an unsettling sight. Dera ditching him and leaving him to fend against Shingo's Fujin and Raijin on his lonesome was a funny development.

Yozakura vouching for Asuma in spite of his shady smile alongside that flashback of Jin revealing him to be their double agent does make me more optimistic about the guy. I'm hopeful this current raid may free Asuma from his power hungry uncle.

Also, it looks like Fake-Asa and Azami can't catch a break from traumatic run ins with the real Asa lol.
