    just watched the three Nazi episodes, and man I'm really loving this show. The OP and ED set up and wind it down perfectly and the action and dialogue is phenomenal.

    I'll agree that it'd be nice to see them do more dodging, taking cover and realistic stuff like that, but the badass factor is off the scale even when they're just killing everyone no sweat.

    The flashbacks in episode 4 were done very well, a good set up.

    The phone conversation was really pretty funny in parts (as was Fritz's golden gun). I like seeing a show that actually has races in it and actually gives importance to them in parts. I wonder if that organization the wheelchair guy is in will be important or not...

    Besides the raw and pulling no punches dialogue I really like how tense the character interaction can be (or how casual it can be when things are good). That scene between Revy and Dutch was awesome and from the preview for episode 7 it looks like everything is going to continue going right to hell...

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    Thumbs up

    Awesome!
    Just caught up to this and am loving this show. It's pure badass, the show, characters. It all goes so well with the 'modern day pirates' thing.

    I like this Revy and Rock thing that's going on, the show just isn't all about action, it portrays these characters really well, and it feels like they are more real, and they mix it up good, as they are both from totally different worlds.
    Rock and Revy are so gunna do it.

    OMG so good, I don't know why but this episode was just the best thing ever! Rock is awesome, through all this shit he keeps his cool even with the gun toting, drug-running nuns and then he steps out on Revy and completely owns her in a stare down, SWEEEEEEEEEET!!!!!

    This episode had so much development for Rock and Levy. I hope some of their pasts will be reviled. I want to see through what shit did Rock when through. I think Rock won't be stuck being a pirate forever as he plans to do with his life something.

    Great eps. I really like the scene at the end. I know it is supposed to be taken that way as much as possible, but the connection just seemed very tangible for some reason. Great scene, one of the best I've seen in anime in a long time. Loved the staredown, and how much he was able to unnerve her with a few words.

    Loved the old nun with the eyepatch and we finally got to see where Rock can be a true asset to them. He's a Japanese businessman, they know all about schmoozing the client/customer.

    Balalaika doing her own 'dirty' work was priceless too.
