Basically, good(?) intentions, bad execution. Also, considering how all demons in the show (that aren't Deadmans anyway) are basically manifestations of the host's repressed emotions/desires, it could be interpreted as Ikki telling himself that it's fine to keep doing whatever he's doing.

Also, Amahiko Haitani (Planaria Deadmans)'s actor is doing an incredible job at portraying the guy as incredibly slimy and creepy. Like, I can feel my skin crawl just looking at him. That takes some serious acting talent to pull off.

Even so, I think temporarily. Of all the Deadmen, the heroes did no defeating only her and the Chameleon, who will clearly be the enemy of Hiromi. Plus, Aguilera was clearly opposed to Sakura and the scriptwriters are unlikely to miss the opportunity to arrange a fight with the girls. But, I think, they are clearly trying to make Aguilera prettier so that the audience understands and empathizes with her.
I do hope Giff ends up being a good villain either way though. |

This is my favorite sequence, I forgot to say. I really like the close moments with Ikki and Vice, these are the scenes I want more from Vice.

That's how I understood that scene. It's fine for Ikki to keep going instead of doubting himself over what lawyer dude thinks about him. |

Oh, probably this episode's the real turnabout for Revice, instead of George collecting 10 ViStamps. Things really changing much for . 2 of the major human villains Kudo and Amahiko settle their grudges respectively to Ikki and Sakura. And despite being billed as Deadman savior before, this episode actually displays Amahiko as someone only big talk, revealed to be a coward that prefers to save his skin by any means possible (including manipulating which doesn't work on Sakura) like letting Deadmans fight for him, and this elevates Julio in charge to force him becoming Level 2 Deadman himself. As for Kudo, doubling as reply..

I think he is being called out because the lawyer think Ikki helping people Just to satisfied himself and without really think the consequence, meaning he often projecting himself to the people that he help too.... hence Kagerou also born by that too
Vice bassically says "Well if that who you are, why you so bothered by it, there is nothing wrong helping people if you think is right" To me none of this right or wrong thats why i think Lawyer commentary is Fire toward Ikki Kudo may made a point, but if it comes from someone without any redeeming qualities, and regularly doing something far worse than just Ikki being clueless at times to the surroundings, it'd be only an example of gaslighting Ikki's actions to make his own actions justifiable. Other than how what someone says make a point, the person who uttered those words should be taken into account too. If it's Kudo talking about that, it's just an example of someone hypocrite, so entitled, would never take responsibility, lacking empathy to comprehend why an action can wrong but instead feels unfairly persecuted, and constantly deflecting blames into others. He's the last one to be lecturing it for. Back to reviewing. The Deadmans gain an upper hand due to something that is just so recent including to the characters, about the current Wakabayashi being Chameleon Deadman, due to Wakabayashi being already killed since 1st episode, with the scene giving heavy Evolt vibes of him killing someone in a flashback and switching faces, and using that to induce paranoia and posing as someone's hero to traumatize them... Hiromi. His laugh from the usually super strict demeanor he copied from Wakabayashi is also really upsettling, which means good job on that scene. Apparently George would just hand over the Gifu ViStamp without much thought, wonder what's in his mind for that. Not yet shown for Aguilera's backstory, but it's shown here that humans can be turned into Giftex, which happened to both Kudo and Amahiko. I guess Deadmans aren't inherent that way, and Amahiko will continue despite his newfound joke status. And another cliffhanger for Aguilera that she's revealed to be the sacrifice for Giff. Kudo's words really get into Ikki, almost breaking him, but this time it's Vice that snaps him back to reality, and it's done in devil-ish way by convincing Ikki to keep his flaw, so Vice being helpful stays loyal to his character of being a demon. But it's also more valid if the one lecturing that is Kudo, basically telling him to ignore someone who has no right lecturing others, and that it's not even about constructive criticism to improve oneself either. Sakura's full schoolgirl outfit finally shows up.. took this long that it was her first look at the scans. I wonder why Sakura's friends stick to her like glue even before she becomes Jeanne. Hiromi is at his limits now, beneath his straight-laced persona, he's always a really emotional guy, the betrayal reduces him into nothing more than a sobbing wreck with all of his bottled up emotions surfacing. The Chameleon Deadman didn't address Hiromi's emotional self enough... as someone who lashes out at Daiji for being emotional to want to become a Rider to catch up to Ikki. Quote:

Doesn't mean Ikki should stay that way, even if you're imperfect gotta still learn from mistakes and strive to be better. But I guess currently the appeal to Ikki for me is that even if he's nice, well-meaning, and not doing anything morally questionable, he can still cause disastrous consequences, and in a way other than a character being made impossibly idiotic. Also shows that flaws aren't only toxic traits, making flawed characters doesn't mean they have to be made as completely immoral jerk, awful, completely messed-up, which is a misguided take some has.

Beyond Generations movie came out today. Will there be a thread for this? Curious if there were some Vistamp transformations we have not seen yet.
