| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- All right, looks like we got another double-header this week, and this episode makes up for last weeks melodrama with it's straight-up baddassery. The first part has that bleach-blonde Coffy-looking detective Atsuko continuing her investigation interviewing all the people the duo has met/screwed over over the past two months. The titular duo finds themselves in Oso where we see that the issues brought up in the last episode has not yet been resolved. Hatchin's anger at Michiko is manifested in her frustration that she had cheated the guy who fixed her motorcycle, but we know that's just an outlet for the real reason for her resentment. We then switch to a gang leader Satoshi Batista who goes around threatening to rape people's poopchutes with a Super Stick (rotflmbao!) if a recommended slot machine doesn't guarantee him money. But it turns out he isn't really the real Satoshi Batista when Michiko goes out looking for him. A rival gang led by Shinsuke associated with the real Satoshi traps the fake gang along with Michiko in a hotel and the only way out is to get to his destination by traveling non-stop on a specific series of trolleys. And he means non-stop since if they wait around, his minions will shoot them on the spot. While riding on one of the trains, Michiko notices Hatchin on another trolley, going god-knows-where. They finally reach Shinsuke who promises to keep up his end of the bargain. Problem is, Atsuko has already made a deal with the real Satoshi to lay a trap for Michiko for the police. End of episode. =============== Now this is what I was expecting: less melodrama, more mindless action. And that Shinsuke guy is a total psychopath. Almost gives Joker from Gotham Knight a run for his money. I guess the only complaint is that they broke up the plot they had going into multiple episodes, leaving me hanging and a little confused about the plot. Well, onto the next episode. |

| Average episode,anyway i didnt expect that they will set a trap for michiko. |
 |
| Nice episode. The Tram game was interesting. The episode contained a good example of how awesome Michiko is when it comes to hand-to-hand combat. :P |
| Loving Hatchin. Another good episode as to be expected. |

| I liked this episode, very Die Hard, plus some loser posers...I'm getting tired of Hatchin's childish attitude thought. She can go somewhere else for all I care. |
| LOL @ love juice. also, I need the ending full version! is it out already? |
逃げちゃ駄目だ。 |
| Hmmm nice little game, but Michiko to Hatchin still lacks coherence and a true direction to deserve the praise it gets. Most secondary characters are strangely developped... noteDhero said: I'm getting tired of Hatchin's childish attitude thought. She can go somewhere else for all I care. I quite disagree with you, since the creators of the series make it clear thet the childish one is Michiko and the reasonable/level-headed/adult one is Hatchin. I like Michiko too, and that's her childish/random behaviour that makes her interesting :) |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| Very funky episode. Looks like Michiko already started to change a bit thanks to Hatchin's words. She refused to hit that fake Satoshi after all. Looking forward to more. |

| what! hatchin just left, thats crazy. imo she pisses me off as a kid. shes not level headed, she's too self righteous. i mean howmany times has she tried to be stuck up and its almost gotten her killed if it wasnt for michiko saving her ass. |

Don't expect her to know about these things when she's only 10 years old and has been living with disgusting people so far. |

| Love Juices and Super Jesus, this series has some great lines. The tram game was very cool, and Shinsuke looks like quite a character. |
| Hahaha, very nice episode, I LOVED the sound, the soundtracks is amazing, the last track was omg omg just great xDDD. I need that soundrack xD. And, Hatchin, the police, Shinsuke... the story is interesting xD! |
| Man, this show has style. I was loving Michiko's outfit. Badass. Awesome animation aswell, even at the fight bits. Brilliant, brilliant show. |
 |
| Holy crap, love juices :T |
 |
| It was interesting, but seems, that tram game wasn't well thought-out |
| Pretty good ep overall. Some nice Michiko action, beating the crap out of some posers, but it could have been better. |
| Michiko wasted those guys. Tha poor poor duffle bag... |
 |
| Cool episode |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| nice episode, the traim game was funky along with the background music, im starting to wonder how hatchin and michiko's relationship is going to develop, hatchin is SLIGHTLY starting to annoy me, i mean i know she's had a hard time of it, but she tries to act all independant and then almost get's herself killed... but there's plenty of eps to go, so im hoping it all comes together! Also loving all the charaters in the series, like all the mob bosses, and secondary characters, there designs and personalities are just awesome! |
| so those guys were dumbass punks right??? michiko real badass |
| Enjoying this anime but I'm tiring of Hatchin. Will she always be a party pooper? I hope not. |
| Such junk... |
| Some nice development, I wonder what's next! The game they played was rather a nice concept! |
 |
| Pretty cool ep I wonder where Hatchin is going? The tram game was fun and it and the letter previously shows that Michiko really can't write well at all. |
| Hatchin is being a ungrateful bitch right now D:<! She can go die for all i care >:P! |
| So Hatchin is leaving? Kind of sad . . . I wonder where exactly she is going. Anyways, it would seem that Michiko is in a bind now, the cop is working with Satoshi . . . And it would seem that Satoshi doesn't want to meet her at all, can't imagine this going over well. |
 |
| lmao love juices im sort of upset hatchin just up and left even though michiko said she'd be back but, looking at her point of view i'd be pretty tired of constantly being told to wait in a hotel room not knowing wtf is going on actually, maybe she's going after michiko? |
| FUCKING CLIFFHANGER hatchin where you going?? |
 |
| The tram game was fun. Maybe I should do that in real life :D |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| I love fake Satoshi XD Hatchin is really starting to annoy me. |
 |
| That fake Satoshi is hilarious |
| She's...Hatchin a plan. |
People are strange, when you're a stranger |
| Strange episode, find Satoshi then get to Hiroshi. This is quite the journey. |
 |
| They had fight in the last episode but then they were suddenly together....? This anime randomness is killing me, I really, really don't like to drop... but I'm on merge of dropping this one... And for what they are doing all of this? In the end just to find a woman's affair that she had in the past... omg... =.=" I'm just: "like I care..." |

| I love it when Michiko is on top of things, and she had a lot on her table in this one. Very nice! |
| I mean that fake Satoshi and his friends are playing with fire, they should have expected that I can understand what Hatchin feels, for kid that got scolded a lot It's frustrating, kids don't like it.. Instead praise them if they do good, that might be better Better leave than suffering, I like Hatchin's decision.. for now |
"Signature removed"   |
| Michiko needs to learn that she has to open up to Hatchin a bit more and it seems she might be getting closer to actually do it, maybe. That black outfit was great. I'm intrigued to know where is Hatchin going, to find Satoshi? But how would she know where he is? Because with Atsuko going after him I assume everyone is going there. |
