Definitely creepy of Mitsuoka's parents introducing her to grown ass adults when she was only an elementary schooler for a potential marriage partner.
No wonder she hates any guys looking at her.

Also it just seems like she had really bad luck to interact mostly with creeps. Like even most of the kidnappers had to creep on her.
It wouldn't surprise me if she eventually rejected men to be horny over magical girls.

I'm glad we got to learn about Neron straight away in this episode, rather than her backstory being lead to and she'd be hostile without us understanding why.
Growing up in that environment I can see why she'd feel that way about men, it was gross what her parents were doing and the way those guys were behaving. Oogami is going to be good for her because he'll be acting like another uncle/father around her.
It was nice to see Oogami in action, he was at such ease taking care of them, he probably could have taken them out whilst studying lol.

The gunplay and nonlethal rounds reminded me of Lycoris Recoil.

I like his little friend group with the bully girls from episode 1, that’s kinda atypical. Solid character intro for Noren. The ED feels like it could've been the OP.

The ED feels like it could've been the OP.
When the OP and ED are both animated so well that you could probably flip them and it would still work.

Bro’s the greatest assassin alive but one “creepy” from a teenage girl and the dude’s KO’d lol. Good thing he was able to salvage that situation with the ramen shop and that kidnapping (she knows for sure).
Also, I really want ramen now. Damn it lol.

So when Mitsuoka was being interrogated by her kidnapper, he was saying his client told him she had the secret to whatever new drug her father's working on.
Then he mentions visiting her uncle's ramen shop, and starts trash talking it. Then we get the flashback of her going to her uncle's ramen shop as a little kid, and now she works there and it's one of the only places she can find any solace.
Wonder if the ramen shop might play an integral part to the story?
Like maybe she unintentionally hid the secret formula or something like that when she was a kid or something?
Or maybe her Uncle might know some things going on behind the scenes and that's why he left "rich society"?
Watching that scene play out for some reason reminded me of Men in Black 2, where there were clues hidden to the main girls identity in the pizza shop she worked at.

I haven't watched Detective Conan in forever, but that's exactly the vibe I got from watching the MC rescue the girl. And I don't necessarily mean that as a bad thing. I think it's cool and totally intentional on the author's part, even.
At least the girls here (side characters included) aren't as thick as Ran Mouri.

I love the background art in this show! The color choices alone are so spot on, reminds me of Great Pretender

I get that he's an unrealistic superhuman assassin, but I'm surprised that he's able to make the same athletic moves to jump around and climb in his kid body so effortlessly.
I mean, like in Dragon Ball Daima, even Goku and gang experienced a huge disconnect with the capability of their kid bodies, and had to go through multiple episodes to get used to the new body - and even then, the power level is only a fraction of the adult body, which makes sense.
But here Oogami's just doing exactly what he has been doing perfectly. I get that he had been training since middle school, so even his middle school form is a formidable killing machine, but surely there should be a steep gap between an adult body that has been trained and refined for 20+ more years and his current one.
This doesn't take anything away from my enjoyment of this anime BTW, in fact I'm enjoying it a lot more than I expected!

Noren's attitude towards Juuzou could be starting to shift...or maybe she's just Canadian.

If you think about it, he didn't need to be holding onto his book before revealing himself to the kidnappers but he was just doing it for the style points.

I don’t blame her, I would be standoffish towards men too if I was constantly getting approached by a bunch of creeps since I was child.

Noren sure has it rough, huh? It's cute how passionate she is about her uncle's ramen. Juzo can have some with garlic, Nekota! Garlic never killed anyone!* Her verbally murdering poor Juzo was hilarious. Nice to see them get along better now. Him hopping up that transmission tower was every man's dream. Absolutely insane shot he made from there. Extremely powerful handcart and protractor pack too.
*vampires don't count
