Well done Mappa
I was really worried about the animation quality and music for this crucial chapter as I was disappointed by these aspects of the last episode, but this one was executed perfectly. This episode starts off simple and just keeps building and building to a very chaotic and devastating final scene. Voice acting was on point and the animation held up much better than some of the strange animation choices in "two brothers". At this point, I've forgotten much of the plot of the manga, so it was nice to be shocked all over again by the twists in this (and they are really excellent) - it's a very well written episode, with a great story telling device functioning well at the centre of it, and some fantastic lines of dialogue - nothing too cringeworthy as this show sometimes falls into. Definitely my favourite episode of the second half, probably the best episode since "assault" imo.
