| Despite the title, this turned out to be a pretty chill show. The working environment, adults cast, etc. I guess we'll see a lot of smoking in this anime. Not too impressed by the cast yet but there's a colorful bunch of them. Sero and Siu are the ones to pay attention to. Mike is easily the most childish out of this bunch. So yeah, intro episode with an adult cast. I'm not expecting some overly complicated story. |

| Mangaka Yawora Tsugumi's torture series being the first of 2 torturous comedy shows this Winter season, and this is quite the hit. GRANRODEO's OP is such a good fit for the show. The murder/torture corporation of Spirytus where MC Sero works at as a part-time torturer alongside people like Siu, though handling bad guys is their bread-and-butter, some things sure work and not for reasons. And as fellow torturers, the bantering between Sero and Siu, in the choosing for some torture devices from Berta's shop, she sure knows how to create business. Another one of their fellow torturers, the newbie Mike, the two's bet that he will quit the job is too funny to pass up. Though his method for torture, being the proactive and cheeky kind who's best at psychological attacks, he's an adult in a kid's body, even writing his own thriller fan novels. And in comes Hugh being Mick's junior who comes in for some social learning, but who has inadequacy fainting at seeing blood. Though the alternate way of torturing using water, it's also one way to acclimate him for a Senpai-kouhai duo at torture, though his cute face sure is quite the attraction. It's an OK start, though its comedy is rather unamusing... |

| The job market is so fucked these days that something like torture as a job doesn’t even sound that crazy. That said, I’m still surprised the guy managed to land so many jobs before this. Still, it’s kind of nice he finally found something he can officially say he enjoys, torturing people. Guess none of the other jobs really piqued his interest like torture did huh lol. I didn’t expect them to actually show the torture ofc. One second in and you can already tell this is just a cute SOL, if you can ignore the fact that their job is something as heinous as torture ofc ofc. It’s pretty obvious how this’ll go from here: we’ll probably follow two of the four main characters for half the episode, then the other two next. As long as it stays chill and nice, this could be a pretty enjoyable watch, so yeah. |

| This kind of reminds me of that anime about the villain enjoying his day off... mixed with Uramichi Onii-san. Lighthearted, relaxing, sometimes funny, sometimes hmm, but entertaining. Perfect for watching while eating. Hugh is so adorable. He's a torturer but he's afraid of blood... lol. |
 |
| This was a really great start to what looks like a really chill show to watch. |
| C'mon, i wanna see Hugh's face too ☺ |
| What a bizzare concept. It's amusing though. |
| https://www.honeyfeed.fm/u/34774/novels Why must the products of man trouble me so? |
| Welp, it's less harmful than what I expected. Hopefully more screams are coming for the next episodes x |
| Is airing in the same season as Himesama "Goumon" no Jikan desu a coincidence? I don't think so. Well, both tackle torture differently. Himesama is cute girls doing cute torture. This one is bishounen actually torturing xD Fun premise. Hope it can stay fresh. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| They just normalised torture? Well that's pretty interesting! Good start, will definitely continue it! |
| I need somebody who can love me at my worst No, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth 'Cause it's only you, nobody new, I put you first And for you, girl, I swear I'll do the worst If you stay forever, let me hold your hand I can fill those places in your heart no else can Let me show you love, oh, I don't pretend, yeah I'll be right here, baby, you know I'll sink or swim |
| Is it just me or was this episode really boring? I thought the premise would be fun but they're just trying to lean into the (cute but creepy) vibe a bit too much. |
 |
| So is this like working for a cartel, but with medicare? |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
| It's very different than I expected, but I really enjoyed it! |
MEOW |
| I enjoyed this quite a bit, I didn't understand that the world had it being legal there, but that makes everything make a bit more sense. I can see a certain audience being all over this. I'm not too much into the shipping, which I'm sure the fanbase will be all over, but it looks entertaining. The first episode was fairly chill. I like. :3 |
 |
| Watching Ikemen go about their daily work lives of torture in a relaxed and comedic atmosphere, has never been more boring. A better writer would have made this way more interesting. Dropped. |
| 10/10 if the entire cast of main characters all dommy mommy milfs.. 5/10 after the first episode is what you get for having cast of all male characters |
| I really enjoyed the first episode! I enjoy the cast of characters, the comedy, and the concept as a whole! I do think one reason it’s tanking is because it’s an all male cast, and godforbid there torturers aren’t an oversexualized crew of anime girls. |
 why am i plagued with furry jokes everywhere I go |

@FurryLilProblem What "comedy"? Is it hiding under the torture rack because I sure has hell didn't see or hear anything I'd consider "comedic".
Them torturing people completely unfazed while talking about SoL-stuff isn't what I'd consider comedic. It's just weird.

| @MinscS2 Do you want me to congratulate you on having a different opinion? |

| This was so weird. Does this make the person who watch this to be considered as a sadist ? The ones who are getting tortured has to been shown but so far it's only been the other way around. I can't really say that I like any of these characters.. 'cause it would make me look bad lol |

| @RainyEvenings yeah, we need some female torturers to unlock our M side. |
| Pretty much only watching this because of Siu. |
 |
| Not really my type of vibe, and honestly, I didn’t enjoy the first episode that much. I get that it’s going for a chill, laid-back feel, but it didn’t really click with me. The characters didn’t leave much of an impression, and the beginning didn’t grab me either. I’ll give it the usual 3-episode rule and see if it picks up from there. |
  |
| Jesus fucking hell, what a concept for an anime this laid back... yeah, I'm probably gonna be seeing this the whole way through. Humor's kinda hit-or-miss, but I was worried it'd be all miss and no hits, and the hits are pretty funny. For a bunch of morally black sadists, these dudes are all really fun! OP's pretty fun and surprisingly easy on the ears, I like it. :) |
 |
| It wasn't really funny and boring. The concept of them working for a torture company doesn't work, because what they do is quite dark, so the comedy feels too forced. |
| Yeah, nah. Sorry, was this supposed to be a comedy? I didn't laugh once, and that's a problem. The animation is low grade average and the subject matter is frankly distasteful. Going to be a hard pass from me. |
