Damn, a story of tragedy and despair. This episode hits hard in the feels.

Even man tears were shed. I bet Kage wasn't prepared for a grown man to express that much gratitude to him. Looks like Boji is having a hard time letting go of the past though.
I mean can you blame Boji tbh

So Miranjo was responsible for the death of Bojji's mom, but she was also killed too. Then we got a look at Gigan's past in which he turned against King Desha's army after seeing his own people killed in war. King Desha decides to return to the Underworld and he took Gigan with him not as a criminal, but as member of the Order of the Underworld. Once again the village in Bosse's kingdom is once again in danger as Ouken has escaped from being captured.

Just rewatched the episode and damn, Sheena dying while protecting Bojji and Bojji crying and wading in his own mother's blood is so hard to watch. Probably one of the most brutal deaths I've seen in anime as of late.

What a tragic past of Gigan and to his brethren!
Bojji still couldn't easily forgive Domas huh...that pretty much expected...its like trauma...
These Despa/Desha brothers have a lot of plans and knowledge huh...
oh no Prince Ouken is gonna wreck havoc again!
so they're gonna use Bojji again to match-up against Bosse while at the same time assassinate Miranjo...i wonder if that's a really good plan huh...
5/5.

That's is a comeback episode! Damn, this whole invasion plot was so messy and all of the pocket, but finally we have this shows doing what it does best! Putting the motion on the emotion and making us realise that some people are not that bad as we thought and some people are not that good person neither.

Really hope that from here now one, we keep this pace until the end.

This episode had so many brutal and disturbing scenes such as Gigan's backstory and the death of Mama Bojji, but it was the last scene of Bojji and Kage laughing and racing with each other that got me in the feels. Even after all the trauma, they are still able to find joy and laughter with each other. It really is so beautiful!

Tbh, it's been a while since I've had the feeling that no one is safe. I'm really worried for Kage and Despa. Another great episode with tragic backstories and emotionally impactful scenes.

Domas isn't forgiven yet. Well of course, I would also be terrified when I meet the person who tried to kill me.

Ousama ranking is back. For me this is the first eps with good quality in the 2nd cours. I hope the rest will be like this or even better.


Exactly how I feel! 14 + 15 were weak imo but this episode had an insane animation cut in comparison to the last few eps (gigan jumping up to king desha, and desha's lightning close up) + emotional backstories and great character development all around.

This is what makes Ranking of Kings so good. Hope they keep up the sakuga, feels, and greatness.

obligatory 1/5 rating, as expected.

Agreed. This episode was downright terrible. Incredibly slow. Emotional Tugging. References Devilman but is too scared to show even mild violence.

Hopefully next episode will be good.

Now that it's confirmed that Ouken is Despa and Desha's brother that means the reason Desha is so eager to kill Miranjo is likely because he hates her for turning his sweet little brother into a monster.

yet another amazing episode, I can never seem to hold back my tears while watching this anime. I dont know if you guys will agree but I think that domas doesnt deserve forgiveness the thing he did to boji could have been avoided and if he's really did fell guilty for what he did he wouldn't have done it have done something like that to a person he cared about. hokuro though deserves the world he truly cares and cherishes bojji and I hope bojji will realize what a great person hokuro is. and one last time fuck you domes I hope you'll Rott in hell

Officially caught up on this and man I have no idea how I let this one go unseen last season. The development from all the characters, the art, the storytelling, the very real and tangible humanisation of everyone… it’s just perfection.

Can’t wait to see Miranjo get what she deserves for her treachery. Question for manga readers, will this two cour run cover everything in the story or is it still ongoing?

How do you feel about Daida?

That's one thing I find interesting is how much people hate on Domas, but forget who sent him to kill Bojji.

oh don't worry I hate him as well, I think I might hate domas a bit more though because of how he was acting and crying like he had any right and the fact he's an adult and should be more mature no adult should be killing an innocent child just because another kid ordered him too. but other than that I despise daida its crazy to think a kid would try to kill his own brother. also im the type of person that won't change their opinion on a character even if they change and apologize or fell bad for something they did. And I hate daida for how he treated boji in the match in episode 2

needs more episodes like this one and less like the last 2-3.

so miranjo died doing a dirty deal with some random kingdom to get bojji's mom killed... and then the devil saved her.

that scene with bojji hiding under his mom was quite tragic.

What an episode! Love how Bojji manages to solve problems his own way!

Also, i am afraid for Despa, that guy is insanely strong plus he's immortal, i guess only Bojji is the one who can defeat him.
The backstory of Gigant was really good as well, pretty tragic tho.

Seems like each episode is increasingly adding extra flashback with different characters, it's a good idea but I feel like Ousama Ranking episode 12+ just makes it to fill episodes.

Also it was peetty predictable that the immortal would break free from those ropes. I swear ropes in this series are just there to delay the enemies for a while. Happened 3 times already.

The dialogues were yet again nice and realistic, with the reaction of how Bojji reacted to Domas apologizing to him, that is something difficult to forget and get by. As it takes time.

The pacing still needs work though.

okay so basically miranjo really got bojji mom killed then also got betrayed, then why did bosse didn't do anything?? like I thought he likes bojji mom sincerely.. and he also loves bojii..

i really cant understand bosse..

well this is more realistic, even though Bojji is really kind, he cant just forgive domas like nothing happened, but i feel bad for domas tho, i hope one day bojji would be able to forgive him

We got to see Bojji's real mum and how she died and Gigan's backstory as well. Quite emotional and sad if you ask me. But, seeing that Domas wants to apologize for everything gives me relief. But, of course, it won't be easy for Bojji to forgive him that easily. Underworld King went back with his forces.

I'm happy Boji didn't immediately forgive him. Too often main characters forgive people who did something horrible to them, when logically you'd need time if your do ever end up forgiving them for what they did. The guy literally was someone Boji trusted and respected, and he chose to kill Boji. That's a whole other level of betrayal. I'm sure Boji will eventually forgive him, because he's so kindhearted, but it is something that needs time
...At least let me finish.

What a tear-jerking episode!
“Why does an apple fall when it is ripe? Is it brought down by the force of gravity? Is it because its stalk withers? Because it is dried by the sun, because it grows too heavy, or because the boy standing under the tree wants to eat it? None of these is the cause.... Every action of theirs, that seems to them an act of their own free will is in the historical sense not free at all but is bound up with the whole course of history and preordained from all eternity.”

Absolutely disgusting show, with a disgusting fan base that is uninteresting, bland and moreover, bad. The beginning story telling was really good and after, the only thing that made me even consider to watch the show was the art. Episodes felt like they would not go by and there was a ridiculous amount of unnecessary episodes as well as GODLIKE plot armor. Miserable show in general, please don't watch if you value your time.

[quote=JohnDoe206 message=65625891]We're back to what made Ranking of Kings so good : Emotions !

A lot happened in this episode, a lot of informations and development ..

The studio that worked on this episode is Studio Massket (Banana Fish, 7Seed, Gleipnir... etc), and they did extremely well !

Full list : https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/company.php?id=1580

Weeeeell, I guess the pacing was improved slightly in this episode. The episode was much better than the last one.

Still quite a bit of time spent at the gateway to the underworld though. Honestly they could've just combined Episode 15 and 16 into one episode.


I guess this is also the episode we find out Ouken is Desha and Despa's brother? I guess that's a cool piece of lore.

Seeing Bojji's mom dying was also pretty harrowing, but I can't really tell why she died -- I feel like the series is still deliberately being secretuve.

Looks like Miranjo was also the one who killed Bojji's mom, the bitch died too though apparently. At least her body did cause now she's in the mirror. Anyway, good on Bojji's for not forgiving that snake Domas ao easily.
