| Damn poor Mei, she deserves better this season. Seeing her in such a fragile state is just rough. At least Gabimaru regained his memories. I'm reminded again this season at what Tao Fa is capable of. Mei's storytellnig about Rien was also interesting, although not a pretty sight to see. |
 |
| Our blonde guy really has some bad fucking luck. Dude flexed hard in front of Gabimaru, only to end up in an even worse state. I mean just when he starts thinking the stuff is done and dusted, that’s when things actually get started… and by that I’m not at all referring to how he got fucked by Rien(IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE), I mean hey, who feels bad when you get fucked like that( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°), but, the fact that he’s going to become a tensen too, is the actual messed up stuff. Also hey, when you’re showing stuff uncensored, try to draw a nipple too.. just saying lol. Anyway, more lore drop, or more like now we know how everything has come to be. The endgame these freaks have is actually pretty.. freaky. Other than that, I can actually feel they’re not rushing things up, so yeah, would be interesting to see till where this season is going to adapt. Now that the rest of the guys are on the island as well, things will actually get going. Btw, Gantetsusai being worried about the only real stuff was funny as hell tho xD |
| That was horrific (horrifying to be honest)... Well yes bro deserves respect |
| Fucking an immortal man-woman to stay alive for your brother, I see you Choubei 🗿 Got some interesting info dumped in this episode, and it looks like the rest of the key players have arrived. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |
| Forget about fighting to improve Tao, being able to concentrate on Rien explaining while she's naked is even harder. Can't believe that "for research purposes" is actually a valid reason for this kind of stuff here. This is one of the rare episodes which throws in the really ***** stuff but also makes you cry at the end. |
| What a brutal and tragic episode, it's the law of the jungle after all, only the strongest shall prevail. New contestants for the game have arrived to the island, how long will they last? We're about to see. |
| 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!  |
The art of Dodging |
| Many have slain divine beings, but there are probably not as much who can say they've gone top with one. Lmao at Blade Dragon dude "promoting" his nickname for Gabimaru to Nekomaru from Chibimaru |
| so do the girls ever actually fight or are they just kinda there? and i'd like purple haired man woman to stay as a woman plz |
     |
| 3rd episode done and we got some interesting lore drop and it was pretty fun to listen to. Ofc Chobei had to not just get defeated but now experimented on because he's unique and all but hey you gotta give him credit for banging Rien because "adapt" mhm and he'll surely reunite his Toma somewhere in the future. Training scene with Gabi and the 4 other peeps was nice to see. Not just lore drop from Rien but Mei as well which was quite interesting mhm. Mei and Rien used to be on good terms until Rien changed and Mei started to disagree with their ideals which is how Mei got banished from Horai. Now Mei's situation rlly needed to be handled quick since she'll turn into a tree in a matter of seconds but thankfully Hoko knows what he needs to do and a way to atone for his sins since he said it himself that he only sees Mei as his very own daughter rather than a normal person and yeah it was pretty emotional and with that Mei is back to her usual child form. Next episode bouta be more interesting than this one since I think I remember the contents episode 4 is going to cover which yeah, the ending of this episode showed more asaemons that are coming to the island for pure smoke! + Iwagakure ninjas. |
 |
| After previous episode fake Bochu jutsu by Sagiri we finally get to see the real one. Kenjaku isn't the only villian to take backshot for research purpose.Also respect to Choubei for doing it lol. Gantetsusai reaction about Mei turning back to child body is valid who would dislike carrying the adult Mei. |
| great episode I really enjoyed it he prefers to be on top lol |

| WHAAAAAAAAAATSSSS, BRO CRACKEEEDDDDDD, amazing, everything in order to be stronger, what an excuse to get loaded. Nekomaru is way too OP, I like it, he literally soloed those four, no hit even. Mei is a little kid again,rest in peace tree dude. Are the people that just arrived THAT strong, damn. |

Omg wait are you talking about Isekai Office Worker😭
| @vive_la_via lol |
| Emotional stuff there and here comes the annoying pests. |
 |
| Peak episode~ that was intense (ｋ_ｋ) Rien's blushes is sooooo hmmm juicy. My bad. Chobe is sure willing to do anything for his one and only brother, so does Toma. He's gorgeous with his new hairstyle too kkk Mei is soooooo kawaii in any mode. Can't wait to see Shugen in action. I love Jigokuraku, the lore moves me. |
| What a beautiful episode man... I cried tears once again in the Mei and Houko scene. It was so beautiful and sad. Houko was all this time coping with Mei as his daughter, but deep down, he knew that wasn't his daughter, yet he still cared for her all this time. It was so beautiful, and Mei also saw him as her father. :'( Ahhh... this is sad. Other than that, Chobei is trying to master Tao, and for that, he's doing Bochu Jutsu with Rien. And, there were a lot of things revealed in this episode. A lot of lore and how things came to be on this island. But, the most beautiful part was still the Mei lore with her father. It made me cry. T-T |
 |
| we got lot of infomation from this episode about the history of the island and the tensens. it was surprising to see Mei as one of the first tensens created. i wonder if she's actually a female unlike others. i mean it would be real weird knowing her all this time and turning in to a male. lol i really thought Aza is not gonna bang that baddie, but he did bang the plant. if that was me i'd say fuck the main land im getting laid today😭😭. and the end was really beautiful. poor mei, i feared she might turn into a grandma the way it's going but im glad she's back to her kid self insted of that. and the post credit scene😭😭 i know how my guy feels. lmaooooo |

they really don't do THAT MUCH in comparison to the guys....
| @EcchiGodMamster Which means...... |
 |
| Man finally some backstory on this island and what these weirdos are. Yeah see Sagiri wasn't doing that "technique" correctly with Gabimaru, this purple haired thing knows how it's supposed to be done. |
| Well Gantetsusai continues his unchecked descent into lunacy for the 2nd episode straight, misgendering the Asaemon with confidence and committing height-based hate crimes against Gabimaru via ‘Shortymaru’ and ‘Catymaru’. Utterly unacceptable. Meanwhile, that one-eyed bastard having a rough romantic Bōchūjutsu vacation with a flawless beauty while everyone else fights for their lives. |
| So basically what is happening on this island is cultivation...spiritual cultivation like in "xianxia" (you know, immortal heroes and stuff), but gone horribly wrong. Kind of curiouse if we will meet Rien 's and Mei's "shifu" this season. |

| Joining the tengen is def the smartest play, you can just betray them after. Also im pretty sure these guys are the strongest visitors in 1000 years and just a couple days/weeks go by and the 2nd wave is already here. the tengen are fucked |
| Those who think that the sex scene, or Bochu jutsu as it is called here, is shown for the first time have simply forgotten the first season, but the artwork here is simply 5+, although unlike the manga, there are no nipples (it's time for the AI to get to work and make the adaptation compatible with the manga). In any case, the scene looks great, although it got sad at the end and I'm glad that Gabimrau recovered quickly. |
| Last episode it was sagiri doing bochu jutsu with gabimaru now its choubei with the tensen. Meis still in trouble and having fever with her sudden growth spurt with solution at hand. Meanwhile Gabimaru training his tao adaptation and warming himself up too after the amnesia phase. I like how brothers took a resolve this episode. Touma pulling off a sakura and asking gantetsusai to train him keeping his pride aside. Then we have choubei who got manhandled by rien and then getting manhandled in bed too but in the end instead of taking backshots took the lead to do the backshots. Taking one for the brother and joinging the tensen. Smart move also i wouldnt mind sleeping with rien in that form goddamn rien was fine af boy. :3 The freaky bochu jutsu is strong with this one. Anyways we learn a lot of history and backstory about the tensen, tao and the island. Especially immortality elixir and the originator of the tensen aka Shufu who is from the mainland and used to serve under the first emperor. Also the way the creation of the tensen is fucked up in many ways apart from mixing shufu and the plant tao. Also bro bought 3000 Children to the island, i dont even wanna know wtf did he do to them. "A garden for producing immortal beings" Also their end goal is not only the island but to turn everyone on the mainland into immortal monsters as well. Choubei after hearing that has no choice. If you cant beat them bang them *cough* i mean join them. Mei also reveals her and riens backstory and how rien started to go down the dark path and cut her down too. Meis conditions worsens to the point where she starts turning into a tree, but then the father steps in aka Houko to sacrifice. He confesses to mei about everything including how he suffered and watched his family suffer into death. How he finally found a daughter but his selfishness of becoming a family compromised her freedom. This was such a emotional turmoil scene. Mei still forgives him and thanks him for being the only real family to her and for being a real father to her.  This scene and dialogue almost made me tear up. The voice actor for Houko also did a phenomenal job and ofc its our veteran Chō San. What a legend. Gantetsusais little antics at the end being disappointed not able to carry mei in her big form lightened up the mood. You cultured swine give it a rest lol Finally mei senses the armys arrival on the island and even senses shugens humongour aura. Bros that strong. The shows finally going into front gear from now on. Great episode overall. |

| Few people can regen that fast after losing a limb for sure. The practice sure showed well not just the combat ability of those involved but Gabi's new senses as well. Aza's rage and his abilities sure made a perfect match. The island being a human creation though was surprising. But so was the ambition of the beings that reside there. Power does change people unfortunetly. But Mei's backstory sure was sad. If anything sacrificing his own lfe to allow Mei to live on was the best farewell present that he could give her. Looks like a new dimension on the war starts now that the second wave is here. |

| “Goodbye father” FUCKKK not my boy Houko. What a man. Doesn’t matter if you’re blood related or even in the same species, whoever fulfils that role is your father and he did it as well as anyone. He can finally be at peace with his wife and biological daughter as well, it hurt to see him go, but it was for the best and now in a sense he got what he never could do for his OG family, to save them. This was lowkey the most important Jigokuraku episode to date?? We now know the origins of the island, the tensen and the other inhabitants and it’s all man made?? The ancient Chinese were on some shit I tell ya lmao. I reckon grandmaster Shufu is still active behind the scenes researching immortality and has turned into something beyond human, some monstrosity as a result. I think this series will end with no one getting the elixir because they’ll realize you lose your humanity with it and human lives being finite is what gives them purpose. Yes, I assure you, Rien and Chobei fucking is integral to the plot lmao. Chobei did make the right decision there. Best way to survive is to have sex with her and try to win her over before betraying her and saving your bother at the end. She clearly took a liking to him so don’t throw that away! I’m really excited to see what comes next with the Shogun reinforcements arriving. |
