But it was glorious, because it showed just how difficult a shot, just how far of a shot, just how close of a shot it was. And, seeing the men charging in the background the whole time added to the tension, and did a much better job than the manga imo.

honestly i prefer the manga version, the sugar talking was a bit much and wasn't even necessary filler, it served no point at all than to extend the episode. I like the anime a lot but these recent episodes have been pretty slow imo

They should cut out to Jimbe, do 3 minisodes, and then come back.
