Kaiji No. 8 episode 6 review
So, “Sir” and pals are off on their first real mission. They are put at the end as the last line of defense, so of course this means that they’ll be the most important crew of all. (Who puts their worst crew as the last line of defense anyway, even in real life?) “Sir” has to poop or something and then the real battle begins.
“Sir” decides that he’s going to check out one of the beaten Kaiju to see if he can find the weak point. He then relays that info to Gin Ichimaru so that his team can attack that weak point for massive damage. Meanwhile, there’s fighting. You literally could have inserted scenes from Neon Genesis Evangelion or even Bleach and I wouldn’t have noticed the difference. It was just fight, fight, fight, with explosions and people screaming.
If I sound bored with the episode, I apologize, because there really wasn’t much bad about it. It just didn’t catch my attention. Though, I watched an episode of Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid right after it and it had me on the edge of my seat. It’s not like I want to dislike the show. It’s just that it doesn’t give me much to be excited about.
Best girl of the episode: Mina
Episode rating: 6/10
