Seems to me that based on the conversation under the busted up super beetle Jack's biggest driving motivation is purely his faith in himself, which is fucking radical.

It was the best episode yet, Jack's training is such that he can keep executing the correct combative techniques but he was still moving erratically enough to where you can tell he was going off of only adrenaline. He killed the one woman in a split second reaction that was a reflex to a kill or be killed situation.

Jack survived so there is still a chance that she did. She was the only Daughter who we heard the name of, so she must be more important than the rest of them.
I believe that madness can find more madness, and that every ounce of madness has a spark of truth. And truth, as you know, has a way of depressing people who don't want to find it.

No one is 100% honest... We all keep 20% of the truth from the world, to protect ourselves & sometimes others.

Well, Aku doesn't even know (Or maybe care) that they exist, so I doubt it would bother him that much.

*pokes her head in* I only caught the tail end of this week's episode since it's on before DBS and DBZ Kai, but holy fucking hell, that entire fight sequence was a thing of pure beauty. The animation, the actual choreography of the combat, the framing of the different shots of the sequence, the use of color, the way the audio was utilized. That was freakin' gorgeous.

Yeah, the fight scenes sure are better now. They don't have to do the censor "WHOOSH!" thing where it's just that light on a black screen.

Well, not only that (Because she does have a flexible range in those voices), my biggest gripe is that she's everywhere. In almost every animated show since the 90's, she has had at least one role in. There's just a point where it gets unbearable.

Also, while I'm sure she's nice IRL, she does seem a bit stuck up. (Like in interviews, I've noticed she has a bit of a habit of spouting "Not just anyone can get in the VA industry." Yes, thank you Tara, for telling us that for the 9,000th time, we get it, you're the only one good enough to have a career like this)

So far for me at least, every episode so far has been better than the last. I don't expect the show to keep this up. It seems that the current tally is 4 assassins killed and up to 3 possibly still alive. This is almost as entertaining as watching the Akatsuki for example, get gradually picked off by Sasuke and the leaf village in Naruto Shippuden.
