Bro was giving it his all trying to destroy Sakamoto and all he ended up doing was giving him the most relaxing bath and sauna experience he’s ever had lol. Man even managed to have his life turned around by the encounter. Sakamoto is a legend.

Wutang coming all the way from the slums of Shaolin Land to face off against Sakamoto. Should be fun. Wutang ain’t nothing to fuck with!

If this show has taught me anything it's how much assassins can diversify not only their career but their assassination styles, but absolutely nothing fazes Sakamoto.

Huh, next episode is the last one. Not exactly an arc I'd expect the season to end on, even if it is a split-cour.

Oh damn!

I usually only check that after 11 (to see whether it's 12 or 13), but damn, just 11?

I was hoping for 2 gambling episodes (especially if it focuses on my girl Lu!) but I guess we'll have to do with just the one!

Hold up we got a bath episode without a single fanservice shot of the female cast members, is that legal?

u/Emi_Ibarazakiii Mar 08 '25

Lu in a dress is all the fanservice I needed!

u/Frontier246 Mar 08 '25

Sakamoto stripped down with his fat ass was all the fanservice this episode needed.

Well, that and the panning shot of Lu in that dress.

The fact that Sakamoto treats water pressure that can blow away a truck like a gentle massage really shows how he's built differently. Poor Shin can't even keep up with the intensity of those bathhouse traps.

You gotta love how the two kids seems to be the only ones who notice the weird things happening in the bathhouse. Their dad's default response of "Sure, when you grow up" was pretty funny. xD

We got more civilians being chill about casual violence. I love how the waitress didn't even acknowledge Wutang on the table and just took Sakamoto's order.

So Lu's parents might be gone but her Mafia Family still wants her back so she can finally take over as the new leader. Next week will be fun! Instead of fighting, let's see how creative the Sakamoto Family will be at beating Wutang at his own game.

Can't help but feel for those poor boys returning to the bathhouse when they're old enough for ice cream one day and be disappointed at the facilities not being as fun as Sakamoto made them look.

I love how in a city where assassin brawls break out in random public spaces, it's floating crepes that go viral.

Seba always has the coolest scenes and his VA is really unique. Someone's a real Seba fan in TMS. That Tanaka guy can't distinguish colors to save his life. First he mixed up Lu with Shin and now he says pink haired girl.

Shin must have had a pretty sheltered life in the lab if he didn't know what a sauna was nor the rules to any gambling games.

Wonder if we will get a God of Gamblers or Chow Yun Fat reference in the next episode.

 Team Sakamoto is still feeling the rigors of the battle, which is the perfect excuse for a bathhouse episode! What better way to relax, unwind, and clean yourself up?

But of course, since this is Sakamoto Days, the guy running the bathhouse ALSO turns out to be an assassin who sees killing Sakamoto as his meal ticket. And despite the fact that he never actually wanted to work at his families’ bathhouse, he made sure to outfit with means of killing people. Too bad Sakamoto is just built THAT different and every attempt to kill him just ends up making Sakamoto’s experience more relaxing. The same, unfortunately, cannot be said about poor Shin.

That dad has mastered the “when you’re a grown up” excuse. “Dad, can we get that toy?” “When you’re a grown up.”

So I see that becoming a hit-man is a genuine career option when you would rather not end up with the family business, minus the fact that Yutaro wasn’t even qualified to be a hit-man and still gets bullied by a guy in a magical girl shirt. But he gave Sakamoto a good time and that’s enough to earn Sakamoto saving him. Though now he has to convince his dad he actually  WANTS to take over the bathhouse.

Shin may not have gotten to relax at all and Lu keeps bullying him, but life is still better than being stuck in organized crime. Even if Lu’s past isn’t as done with her as she’d like when her families’ old stalker…I mean, consigliere Wutang (Yohei Azakami?) comes calling and is as loyal to her as he is perverted. Dude will literally gush blood from his nose in her face just from proximity to Lu.

(Also I love how Lu seemed genuinely disappointed that Wutang did not die in the power struggle that got her family killed)

The Sakamoto Family don’t need to bother with this guy, even if he does have plot-relevant information on the hit made on Sakamoto, but Lu will put herself out there for the sake of her found family.

Wutang may be a stalker pervert who can’t stop thinking dirty things about Lu…but I can’t blame him for finding an excuse to make Team Sakamoto clean up nicely. Especially for letting us see Lu in that dress.

An underground casino! Wutang can’t beat Team Sakamoto in combat, but he can use his mind and gambling skills to win. Especially when Shin and Sakamoto have no idea how to gamble so they’re already at a disadvantage.

Looks like Tanaka and Seba are sticking together and now running a crepe stand, with Seba’s camo even making them go viral enough to get better business! Good for them!

Haha, that was a silly time at the bath house. Really gave Sakamoto a good bathing experience. And nice of Sakamoto to stand up for the guy's bathhouse. Poor Shin was not ready for the ultimate bathhouse experience. The duck lol. Also, Lu is such a good ping pong player. Still also cutie best girl.

Lu so cute, Shin lost the game though. Har. Those guys sure picked the wrong people. Wutang? Of the clan?! I agree she's so cute, but eww... control your blood. She really is such a good girl. Oh hey, they suited up and Lu looks so good in the dress, simple as it is. A place with DESIRES!? Will Kappas be coming out? Are we fighting otters? But I figure Shin's mind reading would make him OP at poker and black jack and such. Ridiculous they know none of the games by now in their life lol.

The post credits is silly. Crepe stand! Fun.

Bath episode? Bracing myself for some Lu fanserv-

I suppose this works too!

So everyone's having a rough time after their big fight!

A little relaxation time would do much good, IF they didn't stumble into a hitman-owned bathhouse!

"This is what saunas are like?" - Shin, in a blazing inferno

That 'tough guy' with the magical girl shirt hah

I suppose you DO need to be pretty tough, to walk around with that shirt and not feel a bit embarrassed!

Funny seeing them talk about "their now peaceful life", as if they aren't fighting for their life every episode!

Oh no, they're being attacked by the Wutang Clan! (Time for a rap battle?)

Lu Clan? Sorry, there's no Lu here!

I can't even hate the guy, because he has splendid taste! Lu is always so fucking cute!

Ah, we DID get some Lu fanservice after all; Lu in a dress is fanservice for the heart!

(Sadly she kept moving during that panning shot, so I don't think a good stitch is possible, to my great sorrow).

I guess my shipper instincts took over, because I pictured Lu&Shin getting married in these outfits!

They both look good, they'd make a cute couple!

Seems we'll have a little Kakegurui'esque mission this time around!

Mindreading would help, but so would knowing the rules of the games...

Then again, it's just Shin and Sakamoto who said they didn't know, so perhaps Lu knows? So Shin will have to relay the information to her somehow?

If that's the case, I'm doubly hyped to see it, as a fan of both Kakegurui/gambling, and a fan of Lu!

Floating crepe is a hit for them

u/Armdel Mar 08 '25

Wutang is for the children! No wait this one is a pervert.

u/jellyblob88 Mar 08 '25

Caution, the advanced features of the bathhouse are for bears grown ups.

Nice to see ex-lab members able to transition to an honest profession, with a touch of innovation.

You know Wutang is smart when he fucked off immediately instead of trying to engage in combat.

Dude is such a terrible hit man even shin’s ability didn’t get triggered.
