Poor Ofuu.

>podunk
Classic Meiji-era term

AOTS

Is this what you call suffering from success? I guess he must have survived every ordeal he ever put himself in until no worthy swordsmen were left in Japan...

Damn he is getting DESTROYED

Probably gonna cheat and use demon power bullshit now

kek

i admire your sword, now bag my shit wagie

Who is this Asagao Kaoru girl?

>>281193554
Kek he got away with everything. All the pointless murders. Embracing the demonic. He got away with it all and got rewarded with a comfy life in modern times. All because he studied the blade.

>>281193554
Son of a bitch actually lived despite his master tried to kill him off, lol, that was unexpected trope.

>>281193401 (OP)
This is the closest thing she'll get to her own child unless she wanted to turn into an incubus and rape Natsu

geh

>tfw you've been working a 9-5 while your immortal buddy has been fucking 15 year olds this whole time

>>281194240
Though his talk about purity had some factual errors. Like, steel is only steel because it has impurities of carbon and several other metals in it. Pure H2O water is poisonous to humans, prolonged drinking of it will wash away calcium from your bones. "Good tasting water" only tastes good due to specific impurities in it.

heartboner whenever she's on screen

Ofuu...

>>281194207
Not sure, but she doesn't seem to be present times persona of anyone from old times. Her VA (Suzushiro Sayumi) is unique to her.

>>281194207
Is she not Natsu?

>>281194207
I thought it's just a de-aged version of Ofuu. I assumed that Jinya was just collecting demon friends along the way and chillin with them. Although considering how close they are, I'd also imagine him and Ofuu bangin from time to time.

>>281195531
Unless Natsu got so butthurt she became a demon (and changed her voice so much she is voiced by a different person), it's very unlikely.

>>281193401 (OP)
does anyone else get these vibes

>>281195219
is she still alive?

>>281194207
Wouldn't she be the daughter?

What the fuck, this is still airing?? I thought it ended

the fight scene was actually pretty good

>>281197865
>the fuck, this is still airing?
Yeah?

So I'm guessing another time skip soon given that the kid looks way older in the op

>>281197865
>What the fuck, this is still airing??
No

Damn Jinya actually took his loss like a champ and developed a man crush on the sword nut.

>>281198488
I hope so, cause trudging along year by year through the bakumatsu is gonna be tedious.

>>281198025
This whole anime is pretty good. It's just a solid story and animation front to back

>>281193813
Why didn't he just use the flying slash attack?

>>281198505
Wasn't expecting that or Jinya actually struggling with his hero complex. It's writing like this that makes you wonder if he's really gonna kill off his imouto in the end.

>>281198882
Fair fight. Same reason he didn't use Air Dash, Invisibility or Fap Hand.

>>281198505
Kinda weird seeing the protag let a crazed murderer just go like that. I mean Jinya could've just used his cheat powers to kill him, but he was more interested in a normal duel.

>>281197719
But the daughter isn't a demon.

>>281199680
Jinya isn't a cop, he hunts demons to increase his prowess before the final battle.

I watched it.

>>281194207
I figured she was Ofuu, since she and Jinya seem to be pretty buddied up. I take it Ofuu (now Kaoru) just changes up how and the way she speaks due to the times. Pic related meeting throughout the times is still my headcanon.

>>281195281
whatever happens eventually... its gonna hit really hard

>>281201697
If you look here as well:
>>281195531
>>281195219
>>281195281
They have the same eye color, if that means anything.

>>281194207
>>281201697
The think I interpreted it was, since he is always telling her she looks like someone he met in the past, at some point she started to tag along and now she is pretending she has known him for years but just as a game/joke

And I guess the twist will be that she will discover she is actually Jinya's friend descendant/rencarnation or even actual friend but with amnesia

>>281201801
Eyelashes and voices are different so I'm inclined to think they're not the same.

In this episode, total sword ojisan victory.
>>281196225
Oh damn, it was in the back of my mind, but I couldn't quite tell who it was, but you got it.

>>281202233
Is this supposed to be Okada Izo?

>>281202233
>villain got away with everything
Damn that's rare

>>281202454
>villain
He did nothing wrong though?
I mean the whole "he murders women and kids" was obviously totally made up since he only slashes samurai in shamefur dispray.
Or like Bakumatsu called it: Tuesday

Ofuu is so cute, I can't believe Jinya didn't marry her.

>>281202595
Common as it may have been, murder is murder.

>>281198519
But do you want Soba-dad to to turn into Soba-dead this soon?

>>281202622
Jinya has murdered quite a few people too. Would you call him a "villain" too?

>if you become a sword autist [true] you get to live a long life
Emiya Shirou could never. So in order to become a demon without succumbing to negative emotions you need otherworldly obsession? When do we get some sick chants?

>>281194014
>>281193554
This ending was so fucking retarded.
And the censored subs called the store Aye Aye mart too.

>>281202891
I just wanna get to the meiji era and have Jinya dueling guys armed with guns

>>281203100
>>if you become a sword autist [true] you become a legend

>>281193554
Hmm! So he really was a demon, not just metaphorically. Too bad he didn't achieve it until he was an o.g.-san.

>>281203010
bad people

>>281199538
So far, the series has 'protagonist dies in the end' vibes

The high school girl is not Ofuu lol. You come up with some crazy theories.

>>281203526
But is probaby related to her. Descendant, reincarnation or whatever

>>281193401 (OP)
Ofuu won.
She might be getting cucked hard, but Suzune didn't even get to do that.

>>281198025
>katana 1v1 duel
>honourable pause for philosophical debate
>no dishonourable superpowers
Yup, it's kino.

>>281204027
Yeah, but what was Jinya thinking there exactly?
>you won, are you not going to kill me?

Bro, you just adopted a baby and you are asking this guy to kill you because muh devotion autism?
It makes me feel that Jinya can't compromise to fucking anything.
I guess he probably thought it was just fine to ditch the baby on Ofuu and die.

Jinya is an asshole

>>281204092
It was already retarded to pick up the baby when he has such a dangerous job, he had to be aware that the baby could become fatherless overnight. Dumping it on Ofuu is just rude though.

>>281204092
We've already been made aware that Jinya's intellect isn't his strongest suit. And his "MUH DUTY" obsession can lead him to places smart people would better avoid.

>>281204092
I think he would've just used his demon powers if the guy actually came for the kill.

>>281203010
Demons have no human rightd

>>281204092
>Yeah, but what was Jinya thinking there exactly?
Jinya wanted to understand the man, that was the point. After all, this guy prides himself on being a pure killer, yet let Jinya go?

>Baby in one hand
>Sword in the other
This might be the goofiest he's looked so far.

>>281204320
He also killed humans, The rapist guys

>>281203814
Spoiler: It isn’t it

>>281193554
well, he won a life as a kombini manager... its a victory I guess

>>281202622
he is like kenshin but ugly (and fascinating at the same time)

>>281203100
he ascended to demonhood=autistic perfection of swordskill

but How he lived the transta world with guns?

>>281204255
this is true, basically all the Kadono disaster would be unironically avoided if Jinya was more egoistic

>man realizes the Riddle of Steel
>prize is becoming a konbini manager

>>281205042
According to some sources it's a pretty good position to be in.

>>281193401 (OP)
Why is Jinya's daughter a slutty JK?

>>281198593
>and animation
The artstyle could be better, great artstyle for LN, Great artstyle for manga. Then the anime is just bland

This is the most hard to follow anime of the year, I swear I'm reading the subtitles but I can't follow the substance...

>>281195531
thats his daughter?

>>281193401 (OP)
Ofuu is playing the long game. Trust the process!

>it's a fucking samurai duel episode
KINOOOOOOO

>>281206298
Ofuu knows all these other hussies are mortal

>>281206285
No, and not Ofuu either. The anime probably won't cover Kaoru part though.

>>281208610
They could do that, we still have 8 eps left and they almost done with Edo arc. After that it is Kyoto arc and Kaoru part is right near the beginning of it.
