| Nice to see this show continue on it's EP.1 seed of questioning the ethics and methods of the Sibyl System. As much as I enjoy the Detective Crime aspect of the show, it's Psychological messages are much more interesting to me so I look forward to what seems to be the show leaning more on this aspect from here on out |

| Are fucking shitting me she couldn’t pickup the goddamn shotgun with both hands and shoot? Why not at least the inspectors carry a regular gun around for occasions like this. I’ve never been more mad at an anime in my life holy shit. |
under”Mebius” is my salvation  |
| i understand that this was meant to basically teach akane that the sibyl system is flawed but omfg this was so infuriating to watch!! rip yuki |

I’ve come to “appreciate” that scene for how much of a threat it makes Makishima look physically and psychologically. Btw I don’t hate Akane, don’t know where you got that from.Spicelit said: Are fucking shitting me she couldn’t pickup the goddamn shotgun with both hands and shoot?

| I don't know how will Akane recover from that. To put it cruelly, should I say she was partially responsible for Yuki's death? For her to just let Yuki die... |
  ππΌππ πΌπ πΊπΌπππ΄ππ΄ - NOT your usual shounen anime - Pure comedy? DEAD WRONG - Treat Gintama as SoL/weekly sitcom especially earlier seasons - Ep 1 & 2 are for manga readers - BIG patience for its 'slow' start |
| So the big baddy cannot be judged because... that's how it always was? lol |
| The fact that this thread had so many responses pretty much spoiled me on what would happen in this episode. I could tell it wouldn't kill off any of the main characters, but Yuki was just one of Akane's friends, and was already kidnapped and in a precarious situation in the previous episode. Cute chicks don't last long in this universe, unfortunately. I'd normally be surprised to see a character have such a low crime efficient in that situation, especially when they're malicious nutcases, but Shougo is already written to be omnipotent, so I expected it. Next episode should have a scene of him pissing rainbows and blowing up cities with a click of his fingers, just in case anyone still doesn't get the point. I wonder how Akane will handle this. The usual sequence for these traumatic protagonist experiences is to have them lament everything for an episode or two, and then eventually pull themselves out from the rut, but maybe this anime will go a different route? I'm interested in seeing what happens next. |

| Makishima’s crime coefficient levels kept decreasing each time Akane pointed the dominator gun at him. He’s something else for sure. I truly feel terrible for Akane since she lost one of her closest friends and I know she will never be able to forgive herself. |
 |
| I know it's consistent with her character, so I can't hate the writers for how the scene played out. I also recognize how scared Akane was feeling at that moment. Still, I am so infuriated with her right now for letting her friend die like that, when she literally had the capability to prevent it. |

| Those cyborg guy still alive I guess, his half part still hidden somewhere and not broken.. Baka Akane still depending on the system.. How stupid, like most.. I wonder how his social credit / criminal score still low.. Does it only scan based on angry / killing instict? When u killing while didn't have intent to kill or like killing your own emotion..? I still didn't get it how this system scan human based on.. |

| Ah, the eldest European values - hunting people for sport while Ode To Joy plays softly in the background, but of course! OOOOOOHHH so this show starts to make sense [within our real world understanding] when the true villain gets introduced, i like it i like it. And really what he talks about with Akane is something i've wondered abt myself since the beginning of the show - psychopaths and sociopaths don't experience physiological changes [aka stress] when the do "bad things" the same way average people do, so the System would not be able to catch them anyway. Okay, i need to stop over-analyzing this show [even though it's been asking me to] because it's easy to find flaws in it, just fucking enjoy the ride! |
