The misunderstanding was painfullly funny. Loli's father inadvertently telling Ghostblade to fuck his own daughter, lmao.
The fight was absolutely badass. Ghostblade just mopped the floor with the enemy.
The resolution with Nuonuo was greatly emotional, and I hope they can talk it out or at least Nuonuo tries getting closer to Ghostblade.
I cried a little at the end.
And that cliffhanger, next arc is going to be amazing.

2 episodes. Next three episodes are the Johnnies' arc which will include not only Ghostblade but also Cyan and Queen besides Loli, Nuonuo, and the Johnnies.

Thought they would go much lower budget with Ghostblade but the animation was pretty top notch still. I like how the arcs are coming together, will Little Johnny be the culmination or will there be more hero arcs that bring them full circle?

I missed last week's discussion, but holy fuck I keep getting surprised how every episode has managed to keep me interested. There wasn't a single moment before that I even thought that Ghostblade could have a decent backstory. I don't even like Little Johnnie that much, but I can already see myself changing my mind within the next coming weeks

He is legitimately autistic, and without the whole trust value thing making him literally unable to talk, and he just doesn't know how to properly communicate.

This is a pretty good subversion. I normally hate the misunderstandings trope but this time some things were so stupid that it looped back to being funny again. Great execution

But a chuuni guy was all she ever knew him as when they got together. She was literally the one that did a 180. When they met and throughout their relationship she never talked just like him, and spent all her time glued to the phone. Hell she was so glued to the phone that on their wedding she texted her "I do" to him.
>>280777724
is right, she was fucked in the head and would have come up with some bullshit to leave regardless.

Ghostblade is a literal nonverbal autist, he can't communicate because his whole way of thinking and experiencing the world is different from normal people's. Just remember how, according to him, the only time he's really regretted being mute was when he wanted to curse out Little Johnny for constantly blabbering into his ear during their car ride. The guy's priorities and reactions and just off because that's how his brain is wired.

She raised Nuonuo fine by herself, so she was clearly capable of being a provider too. And let's not kid ourselves, the question of money never crossed Ghostblade's mind.

While it's obvious the votes are at least a little bit rigged to have Lin Ling and X to be at the top, you underestimate the power of being the main character of the first story arc which also has the most episodes out of all characters. Lin Ling is also a pretty likeable dude all around with his shounen personality + he's an underdog. All this combined leaves a very strong imprint on the viewers and the director knows this so he showed Lin Ling's story first

Ghostblade is a decorated hero, it's not hard to assume that he's a stand up guy who is just mute and socially awkward. The dad also warned him that he must fuck off forever if Nuo rejects him, which is fair.

Webm related. A normal mute person's first instinct would be to let the other person know the sound bothers them, so they would put a finger to their lips or something. Ghostblade, on the other hand, has no basic instinct to communicate, so he just tries to avoid the noise by getting further away from it.

Are people in this thread stupid or something. You can't just drop the persona in the drop of a hat like that in this universe. It is piss easy for the wife to do so because she isn't a hero with millions that thinks she should be this way, while ghostblade does. Why wolf girl had to go through all that bullshit just so firm man doesn't have to stand all the time in ep 3. Lin Ling did it ep 4 sure, but the entire Nice shit was made-up by Treeman, and Nice was nowhere near Ghostblade in trust, while Ghostblade is genuinely also an autist

In theory Ghostblade should have it easier since heโ€™s never interacted with his fans and doesnโ€™t have much of a public persona and therefore fan headcanon beyond being the cool silent type.
