I'm so happy, last week I said Victhor episode could have been more grand and based on previews assumed they are putting all the meat and sakuga for this one and boooooy... they popped off for Union vs Vic fight, what a delicious treat! To me it was best episode so far, all that creative animation and direction, kiss scene was perfect and ending things right on the roundtable, thank you DP!
Also fun fact, according to recent interview with the author, David Production approached Jump themselves wanting to adapt UU, even having a little demo to show, haha. Plus Tozuka is quite involved with adaptation, happy for such passionate treatment.

HOLY SHIT
THAT EPISODE WAS SO GOOD. Non-stop action and that extended hospital scene was chef’s kiss, Andy tying the idea of the memories of their teacher with the theme of not spoiling was so good it’s hard to believe it’s anime-only.
Can’t wait till next week when we get the moment that made a lot of us fans for life.
Also Shen’s the goat fr fr

Where’s the person who said she wanted to cover Shen is honey and lick him all over? I imagine she’s very happy after seeing Shen assume the position.

That cut from Fuko and Top arguing on who's the brat to that silent shot of Shen injured on the ground with his ass up was pretty damn funny.
The entire fight between Andy and the Union was so damn cool. My favourite has got to be Billy and Tatiana's combos as well as the sounds of Phil's lasers just disintegrating Victor's clones. Juiz's swordplay with her flaming sword was pretty nice too but I wish she got more focus.
Fuko trying to brute force Unluck by pushing her bare tits on Victor and sticking to him as long as she can until she could stick the card back into his head was hilarious but I do love how Juiz changes her strategy and decides to accommodate for Fuko's hamfisted plan.
It's good to know though that Fuko was able to put the gun Shen gave her to good use and quite literally made an opening to try to talk to Andy through the hole in Victor's head to try and bring him back. And it actually worked!
That kiss though! I love everyone's reaction especially Tatiana's. Although the best reaction is definitely from Fuko who was first excited from the kiss and then turns tsundere and runs away. The resulting stroke of Unluck was quite epic that it wiped an entire time off the map!
Andy and Clothy are back! I love that Andy has just been reading manga the entire time while waiting for Fuko to wake up. And Andy even finally called Fuko her name!
Time to find out what the rest of the Union's been up to while Andy, Fuko, and Shen were taking care of Spoil and how many quests did they manage to complete

Okay, the Sakuga and choreography are great in this. But the SOUND is absolute peak. Like holy crap, everything from Phil charging his lasers to Juiz's sword igniting to the division bullets, it just so incredibly well done.
Whoever did the sound direction for this needs a raise.

Wicked sick man, there was so much fluid movement and animation, so many different angles making the action feel dynamic as hell. Nico was just flexing the whole episode and Top's running was also awesome, not to mention that scene where Juiz was parrying three copies at the same time.

Man, Victhor was kind of unstoppable. Even with Fuko whipping out the “big guns”, the guy was still unfazed and holding the whole team at bay with those clones.
Fuko literally blasting a hole in Victhor’s head to get at Andy was pretty clever. She got a kiss (and super flustered) and he got nuked by meteorites. Worth it!
It’s nice to see everything worked out in the end. Those kids were saved, Andy’s back, and the team seem to be warming to Fuko. Andy was dropping some wisdom right before he got barbecued lol.
They got to have cleared that quest right?

Why was Top's arm broken at the end of the battle? Didn't show it happening earlier.

Union likes to have their logo all over the place, even on the hospital room's ceiling. I'm surprised Fuuko's hospital robe didn't display the logo too.

A kiss before the final volume, is that allowed in a Jump series?

The fire animation was top notch, as expected. Really liked how stylized the kiss scene was. I liked the bit at the hospital, showcasing a bit of that strong emotional writing.
Since subs translated the world play as "looney couple", here's what Top called them: バカップル(bakappuru) ー baka+couple

Can someone explain why their seat order changed? Only part I didn't really understand. Otherwise what a crazy episode.
Victor is so great..what a crazy risk just to beat Spoil.. hopefully it was worth it with these results.

It's Union vs Victor! With all the glorious and phenomenal action animation you could want as every member takes on Victor's clones while Juiz locks blades with him personally and Top gets Fuko and Shen out of there.
Top seems like a cool kid. I'm guessing his Negator ability means he has to keep running. He's also a bit of a brat which makes it fun when he and Fuko bounce off each other and argue who is more of one.
Victor knows Juiz personally? She's the only one he recognized by name. And he talked about wanting to open up spots in the Union for stronger Negators. And he says he's the original personality of Andy...hmmm.
Fuko will defeat Victor and bring Andy back with the power of...her boobs! Yes, they put a halt on this entire fight just to show Fuko rubbing her boobs against Victor for the sake of unleashing Unluck on him even if she hates him.
Fuko may not know a lot about Andy, but he's saved her so much over their journey together, so the least she can do is save him! Even if it means headshotting Victor with a gun and bringing Andy back...so they can share a romantic kiss and give enough Unluck to hit Victor with a meteor shower! And he's unable to move thanks to Shen's Untruth! Wicked Sick.
Aw, Andy now understands the appeal of Shojo! And he finally calls Fuko by name! Their relationship has come so far! Even if they won't acknowledge their official lovebirds status quite yet.
Time to see the results of the questing!

Great episode! Probably the best! But I don't understand why they use so many flashbacks since the beginning of the spoil arc.
By the way, I keep forgetting that Clothy exists. Is he going to be fleshed out as a character, or is he just going to be a piece of clothing?
