Well, it looks like the episode is back to the gaming boards again with some new players.

A good reflective episode of the past lives despite some regrets of where they are now. But still, I thought the episode had a decent pacing and direction with the storytelling especially from a background perspective with murder being involved.

Quite an unusual pair this time around. Kind of figured Shimada was the murderer but for the detective to be the same was quite surprising!

From their memories, the revenge objective does seem justified. One's sister was assaulted and another's wife got killed. Unfortunate turns of fate..
Hopefully both cases aren't intertwined; otherwise, it'll be a very unpleasant experience.

Wondering how exactly Shimada and Tatsumi died. The only thing they remember is heading somewhere. Not enough clues.

Great episode! This case is the most interesting among all by far. I'm hoping for both of them to be reincarnated, though it might be unlikely.

I wonder if these cases are intertwined. I doubt it though because I just can't see how.

Really good episode though, probably my favorite to date but all the episodes are great besides the dumb idol and fan girl one, i thought that was boring.

Not a fan of a two parter at all.

Every other episode judged the deceased in a one episode quite nicely, for this to be two episodes really takes away from the show.

Both characters aren't particularly interesting and neither is the game they are playing, why the writing staff decided to prolong this is beyond me.

This has got to be the darkest episode yet....The intensity was pretty damn high too O_O. The second Decim mentioned killers I knew that both of these guys were gonna be killers

Both of the guys are pretty respectable too which adds to the difficulty of hating either one of them...But if anything I respect Tatsumi more because he chose to be a brother and a parent to his sister and sacrificed his education to take care of her

I like that the pacing was slow for this game and episode in general too because it allowed the characters to get fleshed out more than they usually do

I can't even imagine the pain and anger that both guys are going through...I dunno what I'd do if my wife got murdered or my little sister that I raised got beaten up that badly and raped. The realistic aspects of this series is just great

The post credits scene tho....That shit literally sent chills down my fucking spine and I wasn't prepared to see that at all....Next episode is going to be DARK AS FUCK and will definitely be the most intense one yet.....I dunno how Onna and Decim are gonna judge this one

And it looks like Death Parade has well and truly gone dark again, but this really was a whole new level of darkness. Both of them being killers caught me by surprise at least, and their motives seem to be justified from what we've seen so far. It will be interesting to see how the details revealed next week will change my view of this.

As if we have to wait a week for the conclusion to this though.

This was quite the amazing one! It really makes me wonder how fragile happiness is, with one event that can change a person's life to leave a permanent mark.

Didn't expect Tatsumi to also be a murderer, really liked the difference the two showed once they knew their goal once again.

Really looking to next episode as this was beyond intriguing!

Some people just find the littlest things to justify why they hate something

This episode was far from being a 1/5 though

That was a very powerful episode. Kind of a shock to be back to the judgement stuff after the scenario building episodes these last few weeks.

Next episode is sure to deliver. I can't believe it ended there. Almost wish I didn't watch it so I could watch both together. Damn that was a good episode. Are the incidences connected? Have to see. I paused during the memory flashes after the ED and couldn't pull any connections between the two but will have to see. Pretty dark stuff though. Show does a good job at portraying stuff that happens all the time, you don't think about, and how a portion of the population would act.

Kinda suspected both of them were killers. Man... I don't like how we have to wait another episode to find out how they're judged, though. It feels like filler in a way, because the meat of the actual story lies with the mystery of Onna and Decim... I guess the answers to that can't be that convoluted otherwise they wouldn't have spent 2 episodes on this. Gotta admit though, both these new arrivals are hella interesting. I'm biting my nails looking forward to the next episode >.<

Wow, this game took a darker turn them usual. Did not expect both of them to be killers. But their memories somewhat imply that they felt they had no choice but to kill (at least the one with the sister). I wonder how the next episode will turn out, that cliffhanger has me so excited for next week.

Man, I'm loving this show. Definitely one of my favorites for 2015. Is anyone else loving this soundtrack to it as much as I am?

I wonder if somehow all of this might also amount to the nameless girl being tested and judged, like there could possibly be some disinformation going on to test her, just a guess though. And this really shows how one damaging traumatic event can really change someone, even into something worse.

I don't think they're both killers. Decim said only one of them was a killer, and Decim does not lie (he just omits facts).

P.S. loved the episode. Probably my favorite so far.

Never mind, I skipped the Post Credit scene................. they're both killers.

Agreed, I think the detective attempted to kill someone though but didn't succeed.

Damn, they need to release the full ED already.

So I'd guess that whichever one of them gets past their thirst for revenge will be sent for reincarnation. Of course, it won't be that simple, especially as they're likely to remember that they've already killed their target for revenge(unless they actually didn't)

Only thing left is how the cases are connected, cause there's no way they aren't. Looks like maybe Tatsumi is the stalker or he killed the actual stalker, mistaking him for Shimada who killed his wife as revenge towards the police. Either way it's gotta be Shimada who killed Sumi.
