EPISODE REVIEWS

In this episode the story enters its next phase with new objectives with tighter chain of assassins. Shifting alliances and betrayal keep tension high, giving the core cast more ways to shine.

I liked that this episode shifted the focus to Enokida because we've mostly seen him as the funny hacker until now. Learning about his past made him much more interesting, especially his relationship with Yagi, who felt more like family than his own father. The new villains also seemed more threatening than the previous ones, and I'm looking forward to seeing how Enokida outsmarts them instead of relying on fights.

Damn, a focus on one of the main characters - now we're talking. As usual, brilliantly setup. Sometimes too perfectly - but that's the charm of this show, combined with the simple yet classy soundtrack to back it up. As I said before, a total vibe this show is.
