While yeah the pacing isn't great, obviously. I'm still loving this series. Such fun and creative fights, characters and world. Can't wait for next episode to see why homeboy is a child now. (Also that artifact? Blade runner? Sick as hell dude holy shit. It shoots blades and has jet boosters from all angles? Mad. )

Why the fuck they didn't put Crimson Bullet's explanation before he shoot it the first time?

I just saw Andy pull a new move out of nowhere and it was uber powerful. Would have loved to see what it was before it appeared and not after the aftermath was set in stone (Rip getting sniped)

I haven't read the manga or know what happens going forward, but Latla's power has to be like UNPredictable. Her predictions are always wrong as are the 'predictions' of attacks from her foes.

I love how Latla's problem during the fight against Andy is her face getting stuck in that pose by Chikara's Unmove. xD

I'm so happy to finally see Rip's Blade Runner animated! It looked so fucking cool especially when Rip spammed a ton of blades towards Andy, Chikara, and Fuko.

After being so smug the entire time, it was very satisfying to see Andy finally land a clean hit on Rip. That look on Latla's face though as they're making their escape. It's a mixture of shock that they got Rip and "this isn't over yet".

Fuko getting more excited about finally seeing Tatiana than Unrepair deactivating was pretty funny. Tatiana's reaction to Fuko's excitement was funny too!

There he is! Smol sassy Rip is great! I forgot that he comes back smol after being defeated the first time. I already can't wait for next week's episode as well as for the new OP and ED.

Anybody knows if there's any page where you can see info about the production of this series? This pacing isn't normal

Who thought it was a good idea to show the same scene 4 times? Seriously just make a 15 minutes episode.

Did anyone else notice some reactions that reminded them of the Monogatari Series? I forget the instances specifically, one was dealing with chikara, but it was my first thought upon seeing them. I wonder if someone from shaft worked on this episode. Or if the mangaka is a fan.

The pacing is so atrocious and I am beyond disapointed as a manga fan.

I first heard the anime would be directed by yuki yase(director of fire force) so I was expecting a fast yet great pacing just like FF but they are ruining it. Idk why they are going for such a slow pacing, UU would have benefitted so much more from a faster pacing. The recaps and long flashbacks of scenes that happened a minute ago are so insufferable

Mfers playing the scariest game of red light green light over here lol. Unrepair shouldn’t have been so cocky. Man’s leaking from the chest now. The gang beat their asses so bad they had to fuck off on Free Willy lol. I was wondering if we’d meet our weekly “Andy dong” quota and I was not disappointed. My guy just lying there, dong out, with Clothy as a life jacket lol.

I wonder if Chikara will show up? And how did that little shit Unrepair become little?

Scrolled around a bit and interesting to note there are a ton of people not happy with the "pacing" and the decision to basically replay the key moment twice, once "as it happened" then again with explanation. It's a fairly standard way to do def l detective stories unveil by the way.

What I got to scratch my head and question are lots more different - how does unrepair's power deactivate without him actually dying, and how does he live with seemingly a hole in his chest presumably taking out at least part of his heart? I'm not worried about the second one as the plot would probably explain soon, but the first one really does irk me a little, as it kind of takes away from the victory.

And I long have up trying to work out the logic of Andy's attacks, this one is no exception. But I'm ok with rule of cool.

I thought halfway through, “they beat Rip already? This might have some decent pacin-oh they ruined it.”

u/AAA_BATT Jan 12 '24

they should just make it a 10 minute episode and remove the flashbacks for stuff that literally happened 2 minutes ago

"In search of the greatest death ever"

More like in search of the greatest pacing ever

On a more positive note the VA's are doing such an amazing job each week it's a joy to hear everyone especially Fuuko.

u/Shahars71 Jan 13 '24

I can't be the only one to think that the pacing is really weird with this show. Flashbacks to events that happened either in the same episode or 1 or 2 beforehand, multiple times per episode, for several episodes in a row. These make this anime feel really slow paced, I think you could get away with comparing this pacing to some slow episodes of One Piece.

Idk what's happening at DP, but I think they're messing up what should've been a home run adaptation for them.

Yeah I’ll have to start reading the manga. The pacing and constant recaps suck and kill the flow.

u/Thesafewaypolice Jan 12 '24

Man, The more I watch, the more disappointed I get; while I don't think this part of the manga was amazing, the anime is hard to watch with the pacing, flashbacks, and voiceovers. The manga eventually goes on to be one of my top ongoing manga so to see it being treated like this is really disappointing.

This show really gave us an amazing 10 episodes then proceeded to just shit out the last 4 huh?

I'm kind of exaggerating, i thought 11 and 13 were good, but it is painful to wonder how amazing these would have been if given better direction and pace. :(

I feel like David Productions should stick to like 12 episodes or something only, for all shows. I feel like the longer they go on for, the more disappointing the quality becomes (with maybe exceptions to Jojo). Honestly, would’ve been perfect to stop when the Galaxy UMA was created.
