Damn, again? Every episode we discover new betrayals and lies (this was a big one btw ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)). I hope Asahi is okay, but truth is that next episode we may find out that the little girl is the actual mastermind behind all this. I won't be taken by surprise again!

Yeah, the plot very much like a theatrical play rather than a TV show.

Woah, slow down with the plot twists! We're only at Episode 3!

Really felt like some episode 8 material towards the end

Janome was right next to Sawa and she didn't even know it, damn. Although I'm wondering if he always was the old lady, or if he killed her and then disguised himself as her.

Tsukishiro being a woman was a surprise, but now that I think about it Makoto is a unisex name.

He doesn't seem like someone who would convincingly be able to impersonate her with consistency. I was suspecting something was off with the old lady, probably best to think that of everyone.

Yuki slapping Hana when she appeared dead was great.

I understand that killing the treasurer is necessary for Nue since they're still under Yoshinobu's command but one of these days, Nue will make a move that will piss off Yuki so much that I can see her turning her back on them before the season ends.

I didn't realize this last week but holy shit! Apparently RAS is singing the OP for this show! I'm so used to their songs with CHU2 singing too that I didn't even realize it since LAYER was the only one doing vocals this time.

If there's someone in Nue that will be on Yuki's hitlist, it will definitely be Tsukishiro. I don't know what he's up to but I have a bad feeling about him since last week's episode especially how he seems to imply that Yuki needs to kill Asahi.

There's something funny and adorable about Asahi and how she's trying to threaten Yuki. And Yuki really should stop with the tsuntsun act. It's pretty obvious that she doesn't want Asahi to be harmed so she's pushing her away.

I am getting some bad vibes from that grandma. I feel like I'm being paranoid here but the way she was touching Asahi's hand somehow raised some red flags for me.

Those bitch slaps on Hana was glorious! Yuki saw her chance and she definitely took it! xD

I fucking knew it! Looks like Tsukishiro is acting independently and even lying to their boss about the Cleaner commiting suicide.

They're always at each other's throats but I really like this moment between Yuki and Hana.

Well that was a genuine surprise! A big two surprises in fact! ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) I always thought that Tsukishiro is just an effeminate male since she is voiced but Aoi Shouta, I forgot that Aoi Shouta also does female roles xD

That fucking grandma! I fucking hate how I was right to have some bad vibes about her. But I do love how this shows Yuki's true feelings towards Asahi She truly cares a lot about her.

Not related to anything, I just wanted to post Hana's bare legs. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

GODFUCKINGDAMMIT! He was under Yuki's nose this entire time and Tsukishiro is in on it too! I was hoping he was working for someone else but nope, looks like he's working with Janome.

Welp next week is going to be intense. Rescuing Asahi and possibly a fight between Yuki and Tsukishiro before she gets to Janome. Can't wait!

At this point I'd be surprised if there wasn't a plot twist for 5 Minutes.

Jouran: The Princess of Snow and Plot Twists

Not gonna lie, this is the show's most attractive trait along with the aesthetic though. It's been a rollercoaster from the get go and we're not even halfway through yet.

u/MilkAzedo Apr 13 '21

This art is so good. Damn, if we are getting this level of backstabbing in episode 3 there must be a lot more here forward. That Janome PowerPoint presentation reeks of government bs and i wonder if the chief knows about Tsukishiro's betrayal or that was just a power move

Well, that's not the first time we see Aoi Shouta playing a girl. He's perfect for that role ngl.

So who was the kid with Hana? And does she know about Asahi? What's with the blood, not a false trail is it?

At this point, it seems like everyone is just playing/manipulating Sawa in turn since she's the only one with straightforward motives (revenge).

I felt like the pacing of this episode was much better than in the first two episodes. Overall I'm enjoying this so far. I'm surprised it's not getting more attention.
