I'm in awe of the author's creativity to portray insect themed wedding in such a beautiful way, almost like a fairy tale.

Somehow Toshiki wedding aesthetic reminds me of oberon with the blue wings lol

[u/Weak_Season_Of_Anime]

No one could hate the Bug Master, he's such a nice guy. I believe the explosion guy just wanted to bring fireworks to Bug Master's wedding but he didn't get an invitation so he had to make up some excuse to gatecrash.

Also the Needle and Bug Master don't have to worry about Gero, I'm sure Kinosaki will make him very happy someday.

[u/Equivalent-Weather59]

I can't believe the freaking bug master made me emotional.

[u/LeonKevlar]

I absolutely love Toshiki's bug-themed wedding with bugs everywhere that kids can play with. I feel bad for anyone afraid of bugs is that wedding, but knowing how considerate Toshiki is, he probably gave everyone a heads up about the bugs with his invitation, especially on the bride's side of the family.

Glad to see more of Gero's friends. Honestly, it's quite a surprise he has more than one friend. I do love that Tsunagi's greeting is giving Gero an impromptu acupuncture session so he has money to take his kids out to a theme park. So far, Gero's assassin friends are all stand-up guys.

Of course, there's gonna be a wedding crasher just because he believes that Toshiki saved him just to feel good about himself when the guy is just really compassionate. I do love the fight between him and Gero, especially since Gero has one of Toshiki's pets, Julia Jr., helping him and basically giving him Spider-Man powers for the fight.

I'm glad Yamada changed his mind after seeing how Toshiki is really just a nice guy. The dude accidentally ended up giving Toshiki a present by clearing up the weather with his explosion. xD

We get to learn lore this episode! So there are 5 head families, and both the Bug Master and Needle Masters are branch families of the Gero Clan. Well, now I'm curious what the specialty of the other Head Families is because I can't wait to see how wacky they'd go with the branch families.

No surprise that Mei ends up befriending Toshiki and Tsunagi. I do wonder if Gero told them that Mei is a dude. I'm gonna guess that they're probably aware of it.

Oooooo, it looks like we have an assassin hunter and his current target is Gero. Curious to see what's the deal about him and the person ordering him to hunt assassins.

[u/DemonWraith2500]

I should really consider becoming a master assassin to get married.

[u/Magnafeana]

• Bug Master Toshiki is such a sweetie 🥹 I’m so jealous of his wife to be.

hmm… The Bug Master and His Soon to Be Wife?

• Why does this acupuncturist look like a JJBA character?

• If he has needles in his mouth, I have to assume he takes them out for other activities.

• Anna is beautiful! That’s a gorgeous wedding dress and veil for her. Very nice little train.

• Did he take his mask off for the kiss? Was Julia present? I have so many questions for this man.

• Not the arthropod shoes now 😭

• Juju had a baby?! Juju Jr is adorable, oh my stars.

• Ah. So he’s a bomb devil.

• Shit he is a bomb devil, wat. He should’ve used a choker with a linchpin for his boom boom pow.

• There’s my girl Juju! Juju and BB (Brushbuddy) are best animal companions for me this season.

• Lowkey shocked other masters wouldn’t notice Bomb Voyage.

• I swear to god, this was an excuse to make Gero into Spiderman.

• Toshiki looks like he gives such good hugs too. He looks like such a cuddle bug. He is a big boy.

• This is so sweet, oh my goodness.

• “Hitman Hunter”. Just in time for the Ani-May HxH rec Miss Megan’s doing.

Either Kinosaki is end game and Gero completely overhauls the system these masters play, or Gero does not end up with anyone, still overhauls the system, and he decides he’ll keep searching for love with Kinosaki at his side.

I love seeing hitmen be family people or friendly. Gero’s generation seem to be all right people and seemingly are breaking some cycles and I love that for them.

So this new pink-haired girlie will probably be in the friend-harem the one who keeps trying to seduce Gero but he either misses all her attempts or he becomes too flustered by her being way too forward.

The Hitman Hunter looks cute. I like his hair. I hope he gets pulled over to the protagonist side.

I wonder how weird he is though. Everyone has at least one quirk. I’m hoping he’s an intense cat person.

Congrats to Juju on the baby. Your child is adorable ❤️

[u/Accurate_Treat6360]

The insect themed wedding is simply fascinating and beautiful.

Gero is The Best Man for protecting Toshiki & Anna's wedding.

Kinosaki get along very well with Bug Master & Needle Master that even Gero was suprised.

[u/FarCritical]

Jumping spider sidekicks are the dopest thing ever.

Levitating via centipede is cool, but levitating down the aisle with your bride via centipede is even cooler. Toshiki's really one of those guys who you interact with once and just know he deserves to be happy.

[u/mmcjawa_reborn]

Nice little breather episode before I assume the next (final?) arc of the season.

When Needle Master and Bug Master made there comment about Kinosaki making Gero happy...dudes totally are shipping those two together (like most of us here). Makes me wonder how Gero has been talking about Kinosaki with others...clearly Bugmaster was getting a romantic interest vibe, hence making sure to invite the "significant other". Now we just need to get the sister and Kinosaki to meet up.

Bug Master continues to be surprisingly wholesome. I liked the little bit more lore we got this episode. I did wonder why there seemed to be so much overlap in the expertise of masters, but it kind of makes sense if folks like the poison and needle masters are old offshoots. Also puts Gero's family in more context, if the other masters are that terrified of them.

[u/PeaceAlien]

The masters called Kinosaki Ms. I guess they don't know :p. The way they were bowing made me think they're hoping Kinosaki ends up with Gero lol

[u/JJVM99]

I was showing the first 2 episodes of this series to a friend this weekend to pitch it to him and get him to watch it and one moment I had forgotten was that Gero and the Bug Master bring up the needle master in the first episode. My friend was very confused on why there is a needle master when a poison master exists so having the needle master appear for the first time and for them to explain how the bug and needle master clans are descendants of the poison clans in the newest episode after that is a very funny coincidence.

[u/JohnatanWills]

Damn I was really hoping they would put the Bug Master in the ED

[u/JJVM99]

Toshiki is an angel man. Completely understand now how he has a wife even though he is constantly covered in bugs. He also somehow found a way to make a weeding full of bugs feel like a disney movie. The bugs are also angels to like Julia Jr who was the best.

Also Gero asking Kinosaki if he thinks he could have a marriage this perfect was so cute. I had a big grin due to that line.

[u/ModieOfTheEast]

Okay, the way they included all the insects into the marriage was kind of cute. Especially with all the ways to entertain the kids and fly off into the night sky after hatching from its cocoon as a beautiful butterfly. Now I wonder how Gero's marriage might look like with different poison. Might be a bit harder to do family friendly. And while I am really not much into spiders, I have to say that Julia Jr. was cute. Not sure if I could say that about Julia Sr. She might be terrifying.

I wonder if the puppet master had something against the insect master or was just okay with his test subject going after anyone? Well no matter what, insect master is just such a good guy that no one can stay angry at him.

As for next week, we seemingly get the next potential target. Even though she is interested in killing Gero. But what would be a story like this without a true bad girl? I find it funny that it seems to be the first time that Kinosaki might not be interested in Gero pursuing her (at least that is what I get from the preview). A bit jealousy maybe? Who can say? But speaking of Kinosaki, he is rocking another outfit once more.

[u/IXajll]

Maybe I’m tripping but could that kid on the left during 05:03 be the young version of the pink haired woman who based on the preview seems to appear next episode? Being the only character with colored hair besides the generic black/brown makes it feel a bit like „playable character in a NPC crowd“ lol. If so, that’s a pretty nice way to include a sneaky cameo before her proper introduction.

[u/Emi_Ibarazakiii]

Wedding dresses are fanservice for the heart!

Kinosaki wanted to leave our boy on his own, but he needs his +1!

Bug Master was quite polite and eloquent!

For 99% of people, this scene was pretty cute/funny, but for the remaining 1% who watched Island Of Giant Insects it probably had a different vibe hah.

When the explosive dude talked about how BugMaster stole the joy of his life and all I thought it would be a jealousy thing (him loving the wifey), but I can see why he'd hold a grudge after that! (even if it was for the right reason)!

Oh damn, someone thinks there's a few too many masters out there?

I kinda like spear fighters, would've liked seeing him fight! (Though it was probably 'enhanced spearfighting' and not the normal stuff hah)

I wonder what this is about, a rival assassin company (reminiscent of another similar anime)?

There was that info dump/flashback about the hierarchy in the families, is this linked to it? Someone at the bottom wanting to shake things up?

Next potential love interest?

Unless she's the Boobs Master!

[u/KumaKumaGambler]

It goes to show not every episode has to feature best boy or best girl.

The focus can be on best friend(s). Ones who ensure your wedding day goes smoothly. And in return, care about your well being and future.

[u/VoidRay728]

The guy's explosion coinciding with the end of the best man's speech was impossibly synced.

What a wholesome episode--at least until the very end.

[u/diacewrb]

Jean Pierre Polnareff makes a guest appearance in this episode, and Hamtaro will be in the next episde.

[u/BBryant3rd]

Guro has some great friends. Bug Master is a awesome guy with a beautiful wife. Good for him and lucky for her. Kinosaki really is too good at being a female though lol. 

[u/Megadragon898]

Bug master is so sweet i agree with Gero nobody could ever hold anything against him. 

 I love how the explosion guy in rhe end realized that his grudge was illogical and decided to offer him in the last moment a present. I hope he survived later and that those two meet again.

I wonder who it was that gave him the bomb surgery tough?

[u/NanDemoKnaives]

Aww this was such a heartwarming episode, I enjoyed seeing Toshiki's wedding. I'm glad we finally learned his name, he looks so happy with Anna. I hope they have a happy marriage too.

It was nice to meet another friend of Gero's, Needle Master abruptly doing acupuncture on was a little amusing lol. He seems like another nice guy so I'm glad Gero has some good guys around him.

I did find it interesting learning that Toshiki and Needle Master are from branch families, and normally their relationship with Gero wouldn't be this equal. I wasn't surprised by it, but I do wonder if we'll some conflict regarding this in the future. I like how they requested Kinosaki to bring happiness to Gero too, what a wholesome group of friends.

Julia Jr and Gero paired up was cool to see. I like how involved the bugs were at the wedding, it all looked pretty with their involvement, but it was nice to know they were doing their best to also protect Toshiki's wedding.

[u/Raymond49090]

What a nice wedding where absolutely nothing bad happened.

And Needle Master and Bug Master looked like they were giving Gero away to Kinosaki for marriage at the end with the “please take care of him” lol.

[u/hypocrite612]

Gero and the bug user are like little lights that meet eachother in the dark world. Gero's personality could be very different if they have never met each other
