| Another fantastic episode it was nice to see it more lighthearted and it was great to see Nio continue to work hard. |
| Pretty good ep. Decent character development with this one. |
| You know what, that guy deserved to go to prison. I hope he doesn't hurt his daughter again. |
 |
| I'm loving it. Hajime is starting to warm up to Nio. |

| So far I'm not seeing a real plot. Soft sidestories are one thing, but is there a main story? |

 time to fight chibi domo |
| The Miburo's ways are relentless, that's for sure, but Nio is still at the point where he can only handle the hard training partially. Nio wanting to spar with Hajime Saito, he's clearly out of his element with the latter hitting him clean slate on the head, because he's the 2nd wolf picked up by Kondo. As a newcomer, Nio may not have any talent when it comes to swordsmanship, but he shows his conviction for the cause. The usual patrol to evade going with Serizawa to meet the representatives of Aizu, Hijikata's content with protecting Kyoto with his life, be fed and sleep well. Hajime being a bona fide samurai, only to attract attention to Nio waning to learn Iai, the latter's a strange one indeed. A samurai with a child hostage in broad daylight, it's a family affair of Funazo losing his own wife Ofune to sickness, and then dragging his daughter of Misaki being belligerent towards the public, he's making himself look pathetic, which both Hajime and Saito then give chase to free Misaki from his hands and not cause any harm. Funazo being desperate to end his life from the challenges of the state affairs within Kyoto. At least this salvation is salvageable, and Hajime slowly warms up to Nio, alongside Taro. The power of friendship on display, it's good to see. |

| Nio progressing from 300 practice swings a day to 1000 a day, on the road to becoming one of the Shinsengumi. The tag team of Nio and Saitō Hajime take down a disgraced man from harming his daughter and himself. Perhaps Saitō is only 2 ish years younger than Okita but is just short stack? Lol |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| Hajime is not someone who gets along with anyone, yet by the end of the episode it seems that he has started to accept Nio. Will they become fast friends or the tension will remain between them would be interesting to find out. Nio on the other hand continues to show kindness be it someone he just met or someone who's in need of help. The way he instinctively asked that man to let that girl go, just proves that he has a strong sense of justice. |
