Very nice episode. A lot of the shots were really good and the animation remained fluid as always. Eternity Devil is pretty creepy when animated. Denji taking a nap was funny as well as Power eating all the food (these two and their banter are so much fun). The backstory of Aki and Himeno gave some nice insight into their relationship.

That cliffhanger was brutal

this episode by far was the best so far, seeing some of the characters true personalties showing in dire situations, denji's idgaf attitude in conjuction to kobeni's panic state. The Eternity devil is by far one of the scariest looking devils, especially when you see it running towards you

Fantastically amazing episode. CSM never misses, it really brings life to the silent Manga panels. Suddenly this hotel arc feels much more thrilling in the Anime as opposed to the Manga.

bruh what in the blue balling was the cliffhanger.

denji getting his chainsaw's out is the one thing i look forward to and they end it like this. they really be playing with us.

did not expect them to agree to kill denji at the end. aki saving denji wasn't really surprising at the end though. glad he did.

next episode should be great. looking forward to it.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

Just as I expected from going by the manga arc this was adapting, this episode was boring af, basically nothing happened after the initial scene, and they had the dare to actually drag the arc for a third episode which I can't get.

Of course, Aki is still far and away the best part of the series, and the moment he saves Denji from everyone else even when he can't stand him shows how he's the true hero of the story.

Solid episode, Kobeni is unstable af & Power can kick rocks with her 100% sales tax. Next episode is the one that will break the internet as far as this season goes. Cannot wait for anime only to see this.

Definitely a rough introduction for Kobeni, I thought it would take longer for the group to resort to trying to kill Denji but nah Kobeni went knife crazy lol, it is kinda understandable after that little bit of background we got for her being that she was pretty much forced to be a Devil Hunter, but yeah I can see why some people might hate her after this episode, but with how she’s a character I’ve been highly anticipating I got patience for her to get better. She did have some good moments too like when she kept making scared Kobeni noises in the beginning and I did find her knife threatening on Arai to be funny lol.

I also enjoyed getting more Himeno and Aki backstory, it definitely helps explain why Himeno didn’t want Aki to use the sword no matter what and also makes scenes with the two of them even better. And the Eternity Devil (killer name) is proving to be a very strong opponent, I love that it went from a tiny head to a massive wall of flesh. I’m excited to see how Denji deals with it next episode. And yet another awesome ED, love how it’s fitting for the arc with the visuals too.

There wasn't much going on in the episode but the directing and the presentation elevated a potentially boring episode, to something more tense and mad as a whole with seeing characters break down in situations like these, especially when it came to Kobeni. She could come across as divisive in this episode, but given how she never even wanted to do this and was in such a panic over something like this while still being inexperienced, her overreactions made sense here. She's not my favorite in this series by any means, but her being an annoying prick made sense here to establish how unnervy the situation was. It was also cool seeing more of Himeno (definitely one of my favorite characters from this series I would say) and some of her past history with Aki and how he defended her once by pulling a prank on her former deceased partner's girlfriend like that. He gave off bro vibes for that on top of putting his body on the line to protect Denji when Kobeni was on the way to stab him.

The directing, camerawork, composition was really good here and this arc actually is more engrossing in anime form than the manga for these reasons. The sound design was great too, I could feel and hear the tension in the air as they get more frustrated with being stuck there, besides like Denji who was pretty quiet for his standards until the end there when he dove off to fight the Eternity Devil. Nice cliffhanger there to close off a slow, but effective enough episode. In most shows, an episode like this would be so boring and dull to sit through but CSM's staff did more than enough to turn a nothing episode to a sort of tense, setup episode with some purpose and value. This episode also got to show off the characters and their personalities more in detail as they are closed off and forced to spend time together in figuring out how to get out of the trap they were in.

WOW every single episode is better than the last.

The animation must've taken an incredibly long time to complete.
The character movements are all so fluid. That slow motion running sequence, or the shot of the woman turning the corner on the stairway... every shot and angle is so perfect.



It's hard waiting an entire week for less than thirty minutes of new content - each week. But what right do I have to complain when the people behind the anime devoted so much time and effort to bringing this series to life? But CSM is so incredibly good that it's been the highlight of my week, every week. Since Episode 1, I've been myself excitedly waiting for the following Tuesday. Now the clock's reset and I've got 168 more hours to go until the next one. The episodes go by so fast too! Seems like they're over as soon as they start!
This is probably the only anime to ever make me rewatch episodes because I liked them so much. 10/10 for sure.

Best bro Aki!! Although he doesn't say it, it really shows that he cares for Denji. Also love seeing Power stopped Aki's bleeding. Love this trio!!
U will love them all in newer eps, especially Power she will develop hella cool (tho she is a demon basically) so stick with it! (Aki ofc too, and Denji especially Denji and Power relationships)

God damn this episode felt like 5 minutes. Konebi really went off the deep end this episode, but her situation is pretty shitty so I get it. Himeno acts very badass but she's really overprotective of Aki which is fair given her other partners and how much they seem to have bonded but it really almost fucked everything up here. Lol at Japan tho trying to make smoking seem cool. I mean I guess if you're going to have a short lifespan anyway lol

Why did it take him the whole episode to do anything at all?

Why didn't they try making a hole in a wall or something?

Why did they let her keep the knife?

Eternity is sort of scary, i suppose

When is this character? https://myanimelist.net/character/19950/Evil_Chainsaw-man?q=chainsaw%20man&cat=character

Beanie and co wasn't that bad

i'm pretty sure that all of the episodes i have given 5 stars. this is no exception! i was really invested with the devil hunters trying to solve the mystery on why they were stuck on the 8th floor of the hotel. the eternity devil wanting to make a contract to swallow denji is really interesting. does it want to swallow him in order to manifest his chainsaw powers? i don't know if that's possible but it's fun to think about.
i also felt really pitiful when kobeni said the only reason why she is devil hunting. it really did feel like a realistic situation and i almost shed some tears when she broke down, but then power started laughing-
also we get some more backstory about aki and himeno.ily himeno but wtf peer pressuring aki to smoke ain't cool. ah well. i found it funny how aki said that smoking was bad for your bones rather than lungs. is it actually bad for your bones? i'm too lazy to research that..
that cliffhanger is absolutely killing me. i have to wait a whole week to see what denji does in order to avoid being eaten. i'll find out next tuesday..
and one more thing, i'd love to learn more about aki's sword. it must be really powerful but it can get him killed..? atleast that's what i got. pretty sure it'll be explained later though.

Japanese love sticking around number eight for some reason, don't they? This time it's the eighth floor. Working of a devil and now the gang is fully trapped on the eighth floor, neither can they climb or descend nor get outside with the means of rooms or windows. Yes, a nightmare indeed for normal beings like Kobeni and Arai to stick with the not-so-normal rest of the bunch in these times.

Aki and Himeno go back a long way, I mean it was already obvious after the last episode but a bit more background telling is always welcome. Also not going to lie, feels good when it’s a woman who made you a tobacco addict( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

The one responsible for everything made its appearance, eternity devil. Straight up demanding for killing Denji.. and well people in this series certainly don’t hold back when it’s about their self interests lol. Everyone baited Denji to the devil but hey Aki was the sole one who was against it.. got the consequences sadly.

AND THE MOMENT, Denji jumping off… fuck you cliffhanger.

The most average ED till now, this 6th one quite honestly.

8 is just an upright infinity symbol so it makes a lot of sense

I can't believe we're already half way through. Every episode has been great so far.

I'm really liking Aki, it's cool they're showing us his backstory alongside Himeno.

Kobeni was unbearable to be honest.

Also lol at Power wanting wanting to implement a 100% sales tax. Thinking like a true argentinian politician I see.

This episode was quite good, but the next one will be even better with the cliffhanger we got. Well, loved the backstory on Aki and Himeno and it made you like her even more than you already did probably. She's fun and likes to mess around. On the other hand, Kobeni's just 404 error.
