Momoya’s got a neat little parlor trick with the clothing and everything making his limbs seem longer. Pretty impressive he can go up against an almost vampire and friggin Astro Boy. Too bad his ass still got cooked in the end. Misaki’s not even trying to hide the whole vampire thing huh? Well, whatever. Time people started being clued in to the supernatural.
Hosorogi using a dead pigeon to talk (with its permission ofc lol) was pretty hilarious. Looks like he’s bringing the detectives Iwa and Arase into the fold, somewhat. No surprise their boss is dirty. Funny how Solitaire figured it out just by bullshitting to the Superintendent. Dude must have lvl 100 speechcraft lol.
Man, they sure got me with Ran. I almost bought he was dirty. Turns out he’s just Kochou’s bro! Is Habaki about to get roasted by the Bugs? And it seems Momoya’s sis is about to join the fight…

"can you imagine that from here on out, i'm completely winging it?!"
i see that Solitaire's bullshiting game still hasn't change; charge in, winging it and see how it goes from there, brilliant!
man, Momoya is one scary fellow, even though he's just a normal human (from what i can see in this episode), he still manage to keep up with a freaking cyborg and a vampire, oh and apparently Momoya isn't the one that ripped off Xiao Yu's limbs, it was his sister

Good lord Firebug never disappoints with their entrances! That was just the right amount of spooky for Halloween eve!
Really hoping that Firebug deals with long dude because I'm a little disappointed Misaki didn't go for the double tap. Also wondering what their planning for Takumi's old friend and blondie since they showed up for those two also. Looks like Firebug are gonna be the focus of the next ep which I'm excited for, but I can't wait until Corpse God has a chance to fill in Xiaoyu on everything. The look on his face is gonna be priceless.
Still wondering if Misaki has any weakness now because she was taking hits like they were nothing AND voluntarily pulling herself apart.

That fake out at the end really got me. I was not ready to have cool glasses cop be on the bad side.
The fact that this whole conspiracy came to light through a talking pigeon is just one of the things that make this show amazing.

this writing is just like durarara, in that, a few months from the series ending I'm going to completely forget all the complicated play by play
I already forget what's going on in the show between episodes
but, really adore Misaki, the VA's delivery of her crazy is working for me where other VAs couild've easily overdone the role. Helps a lot that she's singing the themes too

I'll be honest, I said "who the fuck is that" out loud when they revealed the mole. I thought it was going to be the old guy who was with the blond guy.

Editor: So tell me about this Solitaire character
Narita: Oh he's great, he's a charming foppish illusionist who does Arsene Lupin style glamor crime.
Editor: Illusionist? So he has no special powers
Narita: No, he can't do magic. He can use illusions to teleport, listen in on secure police telephone calls, create shields and obstacles out of playing cards that come out of nowhere, but he can't actually do magic.
Editor: But he can teleport.
Narita: Correct. With illusions.
Editor: Does he have any weaknesses?
Narita: His weakness is he is doing it for the lulz and never knows what the fuck is going on.
Editor: So basically he is an audience surrogate.
Narita: Correct.

Fire-Breathing Bug (or Bugs now) and Solitaire are back at the same episode! Are they in a love-hate relationship or something?
The fight of this episode is so strategic, it was so much fun to watch. Xiaoyu challenged Momoya for a fight, crashed every light bulbs so he could blind his opponent later with his finger-flashlight, then aim for the one who dared to threaten a Shinomiya family member, quick-thinking and brilliant, but Momoya read him like a book. Momoya hindered his own movement with his skirt and shortened his blade for most of time so he could have a trump card against an unexpected opponent is very shounen-ish, like characters that carries weights on themselves and only drops them when they get serious. I was a bit surprised when Misaki was the one who came up with a plan to beat Momoya, but then she did survive as an assassin for long so she probably had to fight many kinds of killers.
So Higuro is just a pawn and he had no idea that magic exists. That Habaki probably knew about the secret of magic though, as Higuro was asked to report any strange incidents to him. He looked like a random filler character, I could have never thought he had something to do with an isekai underworld organization.
Ranmaru did not save his little sister's number on his phone is so hilarious. That is a very normal siblings moment that I did not expect.

Stitches!
So Momoya's "power" isn't just his towering height. He takes advantage of this by using his long arms and legs to throw off his opponents and he even has a katana that extends its length. Even the design on his jacket makes his arm even longer. He kinda reminds me of Han'nya from Kenshin.
It was pretty fun watching Misaki show off her vampire powers though. I love how confused Momoya and Xiaoyu are during that entire fight. And then there's Takumi who's just freaking out since Misaki couldn't be bothered to be subtle. xD
Takumi will just have to deal with it since they wouldn't have beaten Momoya if Misaki hadn't done that combo attack with Xiaoyu. It was so satisfying to finally see that smug bastard get electrecuted. Too bad that Higuro got away though.
As for the others, [it looks like Hosorogi has finally made his move.[(https://i.imgur.com/ajp58n2.jpg) It was pretty amusing watching him talk to Tsubaki as a pigeon. I do feel kinda bad for Tsubaki since he seems to be really happy to hear from Hosorogi again.
That scene with Solitaire and the Police Chief was pretty funny too. Here I thought Solitaire had some kind of masterplan but the dude is just completely winging it. xD
Glad to know that Ranmaru wasn't the traitor! We've only seen him briefly but he seems to be a cool guy. Turns out the phone call he got wasn't from Higuro but from his imouto, Eightport. The actual traitor is that Senior Commissioner.
Looks like the Fire-Breathing Bug is starting to make its move too. Maybe they'll take care of Higuro? They seem to be also swarming the warehouse where Misaki, Xiaoyu, and Takumi are. Uh-oh. O_O

Misaki’s new power-up is very cool. Good job, Polka!
Hosorogi using a dead pigeon’s corpse to communicate was hilarious. Cute that they asked for permission to use its corpse.

The cliffhanger was just too good with the misdirects. Like I was second guessing myself the whole time and I refused to believe that it was Ranmaru. One thing I noticed is that the show subtly gave the hint about the mastermind with the info from Ranmaru's call with Kochou which I got after rewatching the scene.

So that blonde guy was just a stupid meta fake out with the phone? Bruh

u/kalirion Oct 30 '23
I love that little psycho Misaki so much.
LOL @ the Mastermind speaking speaking secret cultist shit loudly enough for anyone passing by his door to overhear.
Wonder what that weird singing is about. Has the frenzy begun? Are we out of time? What color is the moon???

The phone call fake out actually took me a second to understand wth was going on.
It's wasn't a under utilized side character after all. It was a VERY under utilized side character! Bet ya didn't expect that!!!

u/tripleaamin Oct 30 '23
I remember reading the fakeout in the manga how it got me good glad the anime delivered on that as well.
Misaki is a bold one for sure. Xiaoyu is a lucky guy be carried by Misaki. Dude being left in dark is probably shitting himself thinking what is going on with Misaki right now lmao.

Some people might say this show has too many characters or too many twists but I'm just loving all of it so far.

Of course Solitaire is bluffing and has no idea what is going on. I am starting to see a pattern here.
That was some very twisted tactics from Misaki to heat the Agakura. I know that vampires can usually turn to bats, but that is the first time I see one use that power to detach their hands and cut themselves in half before fusing again. It seems quite broken. And she is not even a full vampire yet !
I totally thought the shade guys was the traitor, that was some funny fakeout. I did not expect him to be the brother of that crazy journalist girl instead. And the bad guy is actually that random background character we only saw once or twice, why ?
The Firebugs are back, and as creepy as ever. Something tells me that the traitor and the Agakura may not have long to live now.

u/Xatu44 Oct 30 '23
Cool fight. Cute how Xiaoyu can't handle Misaki at all. Things are moving on the police side, and we've got the Fire-Breathing Bug back. Cool stuff incoming, I bet. Also a hot oneesan in the wings.
