The addition of Detective Mitsuko Asatani is a breath of fresh air. Finally there's someone competent chasing down Cat's Eye. I liked the way they updated the sisters' method of fooling her (compared to the 1980's version) utilizing the insane technology of the modern era. Hopefully she will continue to be a prominent character in this remake as I always liked her character. It was clever to use her as a way of fleshing out the other detectives in the police force since they don't really have identities yet, and it would take too much time to give them individual episodes to shine.

Mitsuko Asatani is quite the perceptive detective. I found myself thinking "Cat's Eye is doomed with a smart lady like her on their trail." Yet technical sleight of hand via Mo-Cap and Video Recording resolved that issue for now. Great episode!

I feel like the show finally came into it's own on this episode. The whole thing about them having the cafe called cats eye and the boyfriend who is the detective all seemed extremely obvious from episode one and just made the detective look lazy and dumb. But this episode proved that not even a really perceptive and smart detective who wasn't initially fooled (much like the viewer) was still unable to prove anything, so they clearly have a good cover after all and are actually able to hide everything well when pressed.

I enjoyed this episode.

Really great episode
New detective Asatani is certainly formidable and someone who will never give up I hope we see lots more of her.

I love how it takes another cat to catch a cat, almost though. (Cat in this context = female character)

Meanwhile male characters are still as dumb as ever. But this is not a complain. In a feminist anime like this female characters are expected to be smarter. Plus guys are more cute when they're stupid.

I'm glad they had actually do something sort of sophisticated for once. Also funny how they were found out pretty much immediately once someone who isn't a complete moron looked at the case.

Glad the girls are keeping ahead of that female hussy detective trying to catch them. Looks like she won't go away easily!

That was a close one, but I feel like Mitsuko still onto them, cats eye still need to be careful

So they've modernized the anime, there weren't any smart phones and AI tools in 1980s, is the detective an anime original character?

Asatani was very close to ending this case but she can't do anything about cats' eyes with a lot of advanced technology and an iPhone 15!

@Maou_heika She is in the manga as well.

This felt like an episode of Sly Cooper in a way with Sly tricking Carmelita despite her being ready. I do like the new detective but her flaw was clear. She overplayed her hand too much and paid for it. I want more of her as she is really cool character.

This has been such a fun show so far.
I had to change this because some loser couldn't make an actual argument. So....yeah I hope you guys like the new sig.

Wow, this episode was actually good! Not only is the new detective quite an interesting character, but the visuals were also pretty solid all the way through!

I really loved the second part of the episode, especially the tense scene in the café!

I have to admit. I was smiling throughout the second half of the episode. That Asatani chick is just so persistent. The 3 sisters really thought a couple steps ahead and had to do their best to not get found out. Asatani is, of course, correct that those 3 sisters are Cat's Eye, but is now feeling that she got it wrong. This episode was like watching Death Note in a way.

New detective, the classic trope of sending some bigshot from headquarters to solve the case and them being close to figuring out right away only to get misled last moment. The entire thing might be cliche now but not as much back when this first came out.
