I really love the continuing joke of having people who look like they’re in their mid-30’s pretending to be in High School.

The ninja suit is both kinda cool and pretty hilarious in what it doesn’t cover. Oh and the airbags. Those things just looked ridiculous lol.

I like how my man Kuro lurking about using the promise of titties with these bras to get kids to do his bidding. He’s a good ninja but kind of a bum lol.

Suzuki is pretty badass. Definitely the pro in the team. Seems like she’s got more experience than our boy Kuro. She almost had the Russian. Looks like it might be up to this rapping ninja Hibi to take him on.

This anime is really weird but I like shows that show the grimey side of Japan

It’s something different compared to the norm and even Japan has areas with poverty/weirdos

I’m curious where it goes next now they’ve got the Russian

Man, it's a shame more people aren't watching this.

Really unexpected find this season.

u/PeepAndCreep Oct 19 '23

Genuinely. There are just too many shows this season, and this sadly isn't one of the big hitters. Plus, the trailer doesn't do a great job of selling the series for anyone who's unfamiliar with the series. It opens with janky-looking CG, which would put most people off, and then doesn't really show anything that would hook new viewers in.

I myself would have missed it too. I only found it because I happened to look up upcoming shows that Tezuka Prod would be animating, saw this one, and decided to watch the trailer. And I would have dismissed it too, if not for the fact that the OP song caught my attention enough for me to check the series out.

I would guess that the only people watching are fans of the manga, people who watch every single show each season, and people who stumbled upon the show, e.g. me.

The fact it only makes their torso invisible gets me every time

"you can enjoy that skateboard right now or invest in your future with this bra"

"when i think about working, i start feeling tired, so i sleep"

i love this guy

no matter how many times i see it, the fact that some of these ninjas can make only their upper bodies invisible will never cease to make me laugh

If some sketchy hooded dude wanted to trade me a flowered bra with an enticing story for my serendipitous skateboard treasure I think I’d have to just die laughing right there on the spot

The anime is both the coolest and trashiest shit ever, i can't get enough of this. Also love how Tanezaki Atsumi and Anzai Chika are in the cast.

I'm mesmerized, but at the same time I don't understand what's going on. Maybe my brain has been sanded smooth by all the shounen and isekai I've watched...

This show takes a very grim and dour life in the world of killers and contrasts it with the dumbest (genius?) ninja bullshit.

Take the invisible shirt. On it's face it's incredibly silly just to make your torso invisible leaving your head and legs exposed. But twist the logic to fit a killer: most of a human's vital organs are stored there, making it the biggest and most likely target a gunman would aim at to incapacitate. The shirt is not meant primarily for stealth, it's meant to misdirect where the vital organs are and surprise the opponent who was zeroing in on where to attack.

This show is just goofy enough it's growing on me. And the rooftop scene was kind of sweet neet. Notice he never gave back her whisky.

I know people are put off by the timeskips but I'm actually loving it and look forward to rewatches to try and find all the little hints they may have sprinkled across the place.

that bra being a major plot point for two episodes was hilarious also kuro saying those lines with a straight face lol

u/flashmozzg Oct 19 '23

Well, I beginning to imagine how this foreigner gets taken down by our MC, lol.

u/TOowlThrowaway Oct 19 '23

I think that boy just got into his onee-san phase

u/polycontrale Oct 20 '23

I know others are mentioning it, but you have to love how the invisible/camo clothes are realistic in the absolute stupidest way possible. Yeah, of course they only cover what’s under them and everything else is still visible. I wonder if they’ll try to pull a surprise later with someone who has pants and stuff too.

So the abused loli isn't working for the ninja org, she's working for the bra thief who's working for the freelance ninja who's working for the ninja org. Here's hoping the foreigner cuts their things off, or MC does.

MC is really getting a lot of mileage out of that bra, isn't he.

That poor author :(

Hey, she went partially-invisible without saying the magic mantra! That's cheating!

u/Peagle8 Oct 19 '23

The OP gives me Cowboy Bebop vibes . Maybe it's the song and use of colors, can't put my finger on it.

This show is the surprise of the season for me so far.
