WTH Midori is an evil mofo. Not to mention a hypocrite. Calling others cheaters when he cheated too. I'm pretty sure holding someone's mouth so they can't say hit is not only cheating but foul play worthy of being disqualified. Ass.
I'm super disappointed, for Hotaru to let him distract her like that. I wanted her to kick his ass!
on another note...its hard to take this show serious xD they're all so dramatic.
Olem said: I'm enjoying the anime...but like hell I can enjoy any of this forced drama. Like seriously, holy hell. I'd be able to deal with their weird seriousness while playing and unreal athletic ability, but the drama is so damn cringeworthy.
But anyway, that must've hurt when Matsuoka was getting shot by the deagle.
I'm the opposite. I'd take that sadism (albeit tied to Miss Justice Enthusiast) over the bullshit every day and twice on Sunday.
Why the hell are they even carrying guns at this point? It should've been called the Toy Clobbering Competition.
Jesus Fucking Christ, it's a fucking game. Midori is an asshole who acts cute and needs to shot in the dick with a bazooka.
Too much drama over some stupid survival game. Midori gets on my nerves with his cutesy way of talking and saying that he wants to punish his dumbass members.
Tachibana should just take a gun up Midori's ass and go wild and destroy his nuts.
I loved this episode so much. Midori was a sadist, it's not like he's been hiding it at all, or denying that fact. Tachibana is just too much of a liar, a hypocrite and dumb to understand the fact, even when every single person has literally spat the truth in her face at least twice over.
I'm so glad that she ended up losing, and losing her will as well. Her justice is completely skewed and her own reason for playing the game cannot excuse her lies.
I'm sorry, but I'm damn glad she got shot in the head at the end, it was all her own undoing anyway.
I know loads of people want to blast Midori's head off with his survival game guns [I do too, to a certain extent], but he did make a valid point to Hotaru. The melodrama was too much for me tbh but that part where she was chasing him was cool. I look forward to the next two episodes woop
me? watch anime? lol of course not (*ʘ‿ʘ) haha only losers watch anime (ʘ▽ʘ) what even is anime ヾ(ʘ∀ʘ)ノ
right? :) :) :) :) :) right? (ᅌᴗᅌ* ) right? (≖ ‿ ≖) anime (◉‿◉)
I wonder if the blue haired girl hadn't interrupted, would Tachibana get to kill Midori? I mean she seemed to gain the upper hand, but again, neither blond nor glasses managed to hit him, and Tachibana got worse aim than they do.
thebrentinator24 said: I felt uncomfortable watching Masamune practically get gun-raped by Midori. But hey, dramatic effect, right?
I wish I would be able to watch Midori get destroyed by Hotaru in the future, but that's not likely at all considering how many episodes are left...why is this series so short? Is it just a promo for the manga?
Some sniper mind: A head shot in the pouring rain with toy/fake bullets.
It was kind of predictable that they would lose, but it was still pretty dramatic! I love Hotaru's bloodlust, I hate Midori's sadism. What a scumbag.
Pretty brutal how Midori kept shooting Masamune. Really wanted to see Tachibana beat Midori badly, but it was expected that they would lose in the end. Wonder if things will turn around in the next TGC (although this adaption seems too short to make it that far).
Though Midori is sadistic scum, but god damn he is still awesome. How he manipulates others just shows that he is strong, but I'm waiting till he will lose to Mattsun (I don't read manga,but I guess it will happen someday)
Kinda mixed feelings for this episode, the second half got my hopes up. But well afterwards it really just showed me why it isn't that good a serie.
Toy Gun Gun still hasn't took care of their trauma, wow. Tachibana has one too now and surely they'll work on it in the next episode. Hopefully the ending of this anime will be better or I'll drop it from 7>6.
I'm actually glad they lost, I would've hated the series if they somehow managed to win with Tachibana alone. The killing intent is always nice to see but it's nothing against someone as evil, experienced and cunning as Midori is. I wonder though what the remaining episode will be about since it feels like its over.
This is again the time where I felt a hate towards a likeable character before. And tbh, I can't wait to see Midori's smile vanish if they managed to beat them. And please please, my gosh i guess every scene of him from now on will make me cringe.
And fhe gun rape scene was really unnecessary, it felt like I'm watching a porn wth.
I'm just gonna sit here and be one of the people who are actually pleased with the episode, and glad they didn't win first time. It would have been too easy and made their enemies feel weaker. Now they can get much stronger and come back to defeat them. Midori's one cruel dude though. Poor Mattsun and Yukki. Though Midori's right about one thing, Yukki, language like that isn't allowed. -3-
Also, I'm just gonna be happy with that Hotaru and Masamune hug. Aww. <3 (I feel like the only person who actually ships them lol)
Wow, that was intense. It's interesting how crazy Tachibana becomes, she reminds me of Seryuu Ubiquitous, that crazy chick from Akame ga kill! who was also obsessed with ''justice'', in her own, twisted way.
My expectations were not this high, I'm glad I picked this up.
People are calling him Midorima in this thread and it's like... I can't help but imagine him saying that he never misses a shot-- and "shot" works for both basketball and guns so hey.
Not that the series was killing it before this or anything, but that was just...wow. That has to be the most dramatic episode about undramatic things I have ever saw. Dudes crying, becoming paralyzed from traumatic shock and embracing in sorrowful hugs over an airsoft match, lol. Such nonsense. It was already a bit over-dramatic, but they jumped the shark with this episode.
katsu044 said: this shows pretty damn funny bunch of grown ass men acting like their lives are on the line in a airsoft game.
it's alright when it isn't trying to be so serious
^ Pretty sure this is the point. Drama played straight can be comedy - intentional comedy, even.
That said, Midori's a freaking sadist. Airsoft or no, emotional abuse is kind of a thing.

They got raped and now live to tell the tale again.
New ED is good.
If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have).
Aahhhh. Well I'm glad things ended up this way, ahhah. It is pretty unrealistic to make Hotaru-- a newbie-- win against the 4 time champs, now 5.... v___v
But no matter! You learn the most from your losses ^___^
Next time for sure!
Looks like next ep, Hotaru's bestie beats some sense back into her. Can't wait.
"...and they went on to become five-time consecutive champions" Hotaru you forgot to add the part," and I still hadn't told Mattsun and Yuuki that I was a goddamn girl" Ha i love this anime so much, rewatching for the second time :)
