Opinions: (A)

Despite the fact that there weren’t any recaps this episode, It still felt very short. I guess that’s a testament to how well the episode is paced, since its over before you even know it. Of course, a good amount of the episode was dedicated to the intense action scene where Takashi jumped in to save the day and used his insane biker skills to quickly turn the tables on the zombies.

That was immensly cool for sure, but the highlight of the episode has got to be Hirano putting Shido in his place. The way Hirano intimidated and threatened Shido, making him back off was impressive, and I definitely feel my respect growing for this character. Next to Takashi and Busujima, I can’t help but find him to be one of the most interesting, unique and funny characters. The whole talk about Hirano’s family was pretty funny too XD

Speaking of Busujima and Takashi, did I see Busujima call him by his first name? And the jelous stare from Rei? Hahaha! I loved that, and it only echoes my sentiments that TakashixBusujima is the way to go. With the fact that Busujima  and co left Shido behind though, I wonder if that’s all we’ll see of him?

I’m guessing that can’t be all there is to it. Maybe Takagi will be right, and we’ll see Shido leading his own cult for survival later on in the story. He definitely wasn’t all too happy to be talked down by Hirano and denied being able to control the group. The way he twirled his tongue when asking Marikawa to stay was beyond creepy.
