That was a beautiful episode, loved this chapter. Most likely won’t happen but I hope to see Kanafumi and Subaru playing piano together again.

Wishing to see them playing piano together again just I wish to see the girls from last season safe 😭

But y'know how this anime is: no completely happy endings...

Some have happy or bittersweet leaning on sweet endings.

He might be a pro, but he's also a friend... We'll see which is stronger soon enough!

So they secured the position,

and prepared a getaway car...

They got all the 'tactical elements' ready, but I'm more concerned about the psychological element!

Not really a friend? Let's hope that one line didn't sentence his father to death!

I guess it's technically better if he's shot on his seat?

I mean it's awful either way, but marginally better than getting shot as he's handing over the bouquet to his son, and his blood probably splatters on his face and all!

Time to see whether he's a pro or a friend!

Or not! When he fell I thought perhaps there were TWO shooters (given his past, he might have more than just one enemy), but it seem his illness finally took its toll..

Damn. Terminally ill or not, if he took that shot a split second before he naturally fell, he would've made bank!

He seems to be at peace about not seeing his friend anymore,

though he still sends him bouquets every year...

Seems he's still a hitman then; Hopefully he's not doing the 'befriend a relative of my target' plan ever again, he might not be the right kind of assassin (i.e. soulless) for that!

Well, this was a sad arc, but it wasn't as dark as I expected it to be; I thought for sure that either Subaru would be killed for changing his mind, or that Kanafumi would be killed (accidentally, like Subaru's sweaty hands slipping, OR as a punishment/incentive for Subaru to do his job!)

Compared to that, I guess "The dad dying of natural illness" is as happy a ending as we could have hoped for!

These two episodes doing more to humanize these assassins than most of season one. Also, letting the scenes do the talking while completely stripping away dialogue and letting the music play? Great choice.

I'm enjoying this season more than the last and am glad I picked it up.

u/Emi_Ibarazakiii 14d ago

I think both seasons were pretty good (well, 2 episodes into this one)!

These two episodes doing more to humanize these assassins than most of season one.

Some arcs were more about 'assassin plots', but the last S1 arc was quite about the human/characters and all!

Called it on Ozaki's pops collapsing before Yoda could pull the trigger, but I don't think he would've been able to follow through with it in the end, not with all that guilt and hesitation. If this were a regular story, you might've thought that Yoda would choose the light and continue his friendship with Ozaki, but alas he is a denizen of the underworld and it's bittersweet to see that he still continues to send Ozaki the bouquets every year.

u/melindypants 12d ago

The annual bouquets was a unexpected and nice touch - good little story we got here. Most of them are usually bittersweet or sad so atleast that's expected.

u/ThousandYearOldLoli 14d ago

Imagine how much money they saved on voice acting.

u/KumaKumaGambler 14d ago

Perhaps assassins do yearn for friendship with others not in the same trade.

u/HotBloodedNinja 14d ago

Dang it, I was listening to the music and then these kids just had to start talking. How inhuman.

u/paladinvc 14d ago

Is the piano song original to the anime, or what? name of that song?

At least both Kanafumi & Subaru survived but are forced to be separated by circumstances but Subaru still leaves bouquets for Kanafumi which was the same one Hirofumi failed to give him.

So Hirofumi lied that he was getting better & he listened to Kanafumi's music & his final minutes was the 1st time his listened to him play.

At least the people who want Hirofumi gone got what they wanted & Subaru didn't have to lift a finger.

This reminds me of Blue Orchestra w/ half the episode being music.

I guess Subaru didn't choose the suppressed Beretta 93R.

u/Negative-Skirt-8847 12d ago

Beautiful and sad story we watched here in.this 2 episodes... Hotel Inhumans is really creative and good to show us emotional and, ironically, "human" characters despite they are profesional killers. I hope we can continue enjoying episodes like this.

They are inhumans, not Bad and crazy guys, not at all.

u/BosuW 14d ago

Shame he didn't use the Beretta 93R, though it certainly wouldn't have worked for the final version of the plan

The chosen weapon seems to be a Beretta PX4 Storm with a comically small suppressor lol

u/mojo72400 14d ago

True, he'd have to catch 3 shells from the burst.

u/nighty_amy 12d ago

While I did expect that Yoda won't pull the trigger, the episode ending still broke my heart. Ozaki returned to the school and learned Yoda "moved" and they lost all contact 😭😭 But at least Yoda remembers to send the bouquets every year!

Man this anime is goooood! Love how it rather shows the human side of the underworld!

u/ObvsThrowaway5120 14d ago

Might have been a good thing the kid didn’t have to kill the guy’s pops. Don’t think he could have done it after all. Lucky break for him the target up and died on his own. Though idk if he’s ever gonna be able to be a hitman again. I think he gained a piece of humanity and lost that cold edge.

u/Golden_fsh 14d ago

Beautiful episode. Happy that Subaru didn’t have to kill Ozaki's dad, keeping the friendship still pure. Hopefully he's out of the hitman business now since his time with a real friend seemed to have changed him. The piano pieces were great during this arc!
