I skip most of this episode because I hate violence towards women. But I love Inuyashiki!!!!!! I thought he killed those yakuza but he didn't 😉 I agree with him, those bad guys should atone for their sins until they die!! It's a good justice for the couple 😉

Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.
It loses common sense more and more each episode.
Why does the oldman black out after some gunshots if he doesn't suffer any damage at all?
Big guy sees that corpse has no blood and not a single scratch but still sees no problem and thinks oldman is dead.
And many other disturbing illogical moments in this and previous episodes.
Yeah, I guess it's time to drop it
I think this episode left an impact on me about how violent Yakuzas actually are. Wouldn't want to mess with em' in the first place.
That scene where Inuyashiki got into his mechanic form and eliminated all the yakuza's eyes has been carved DEEP into the back of my mind now, I can never forget that scene...it was just too funny and heroic at the same time.
I wonder at the end, did he cure her mind? (if you don't know what I mean, just think, a violent and rapist yakuza who was completely worked up has a naked and drugged woman...do you really think nothing happened because they didn't show? Oh but 1st time she was kidnapped he when over her...yeah no shit, that was for round 2 now that he calmed down his lust and now she will be fisty, otherwise, you really don't get how disturbing and inhuman is someone who kidnapped, drug and rape till the person dies with no remorse).
End fate for the Yakuza is really amazing for people like them. Sadly, if it was even a bit real because they can still speak, they will take it out on the old man ('s family) and definitely on the couple. Since there were many important people there, so like that big guy said, it might not be him, but someone will, so all they need is someone who is unaffected to come and take revenge for them, since they still can speak and all.
I fcking love this episode. Yeah it may seems ordinary ep for some but for me this episode is something more. It portrays hope for humanity (ironically from a cyborg ojiisan) I also love how the old man cyborg is eagerly/emotionally wants to help someone with the humility and humanity, and while giving justified punishment for those wrong doers. I hope for more of Ojiisan helping someone.
I see a great potential for this old man to be a hero next to superman or 'astroboy' hehehe.
Hearing Takaya Kuroda (aka Kiryu-chan) voicing an evil yakuza sounds so wrong... but I guess idealistic yakuza like Kiryu doesn't exist. Most of them are like Samejima.
I was hoping Inuyashiki would kill those pieces of shit but blinding and paralyzing them sounds so much worse. I'm glad he's not the forgiving type of hero. Some people are beyond rehabilitation.
I'm glad this episode ended on a positive note. Tired of seeing things go the depressing route because "ohh the world is soo cruel and unjust".
Despite each of the episode yet being batshit crazy, this one somehow still topped all of them. Absolutely loved Inuyashiki's justice.
Those yakuzas had it coming, and it came in the most horrid way possible. And what's worse is, he has left them to suffer. Pretty sure dying seems a better option there. Again, loving the insanity in this series.
It seems like we're getting the POV between Inuyashiki and Hiro in turns for each and every episode, but wow, this episode is especially sickening, although no innocents were actually killed in this ep, the whole premise of a young couple about to take their next step into marriage having their hopes shattered by the introduction of a rapist Yakuza boss was all so revolting. The episode did really well to establish that sense of sentimentalism of this couple within the first 5 minutes. The girl escaping on her own the first time around was purely a miracle, the only thing that could've saved the 2 would've been for them to run off to a secluded rural area or simply to ditch the country altogether, but considering the wealth and authority the yakuza fucker has, they could not run forever.
In comes the hero, Inuyashiki to save the day. I'm glad he's not above hurting others and inflicting permanent mortal damage on those who deserve them. Sure he did not kill the Yakuza members and their goons, but revoking them of their sights in addition to giving them other miscellaneous paralysis and having them live the rest of their lives this way is such a perfect way for them to suffer. Even the rapist yakuza boss uttered the same lines of "what have I ever done to you/to deserve this" Oh how the tables have turned.
This is by far the most major incident either Hiro or Inuyashiki have been involved in, I wonder what consequences this would bring about. I doubt those who retain their ability to speak would sit idly by and not attempt to find the old geezer who singlehandedly brought ruin to their Yakuza Empire.
