10 Second Anime - Killing Bites - Episode 4


The Destroyal begins with Hitomi meeting one of the favorites as her first showdown.


4th Bite - "That's why I told you not to enter, you scum!"

Feh.

No. No, no, no! You do not put a Sumo Logan in a white wifebeater in an anime and then turn him into a hippopotamus!


I don't care how fat that wolverine has to be to match Ichinosuke's body, but you make Sumo Logan a damn wolverine!


Heh.

Huh. The intro actually had something to say about this episode instead of the usual time filler. There are 4 zaibatsu and they each have a three man team in this Killing Bites Destroyal.



Nice party. Even Sumo Logan is in a tuxedo.

Nomoto is totally our audience insert. Feeling out of place, noticing all kinds of weird things. Like how this party is so casual about twelve people who are about to start killing each other.

Leo is a pretty nice guy as long you don't mention the word "stupid." He even tries to keep his temper when Hitomi can't even remember him.

Ah. There's that Taiga (Tiger) guy who is actually Eruza's big brother. He's mad that Leo isn't in the contest because he wants a real fight. Oh, I think he'll get one.

Ooh. That short-haired blondie is on Eruza's team, but she's aloof. I hope we see more of her really soon.

Ha! Eruza likes Hitomi so much. "I almost fell for her!" Too bad big bro is oblivious to how his little sister hangs on him or he might feel jealous. I guess Taiga only has a broner for Leo.

Okay. Glasses wearing secretary type is named Mai. Noted.

This island in the Philippine Sea seems to be owned by the zaibatsu just for their killing sport. Oh. This nice party was on a cruise liner.

We're getting the rules for this Destroyal now. The players have to move their guys around like a board game. If the crossbreeds don't follow their directions, they have collars which blow their heads off. And there's surveillance equipment all over the place.


I suppose we need to know what kind of people these fighters are before they get on the island. One's a rapist. Lovely. At least Ui didn't get much more than being thrown against a wall. Also, that dude took advantage of one of the bunny girl waitresses, so it's a bit fitting that he would pounce on an actual rabbit girl.

I'll save all my questions about the rules for this tournament, because the narrative rules for this phase of a story are always need to know. As in, you don't need to know how anything works until it becomes important to the plot. I'll turn my brain off now.



The other zaibatsu don't know what to expect from Nomoto. Some worry about his lack of experience, while others think kids can learn a lot from the internet these days.

I thought Nomoto might show some gaming chops just because he's a college kid in an otaku club. But nah. He's letting Hitomi do all the thinking for him.


Some are impressed but Yoko just cannot even. Why is she so pissed off at him anyway?

Hitomi has never played this game before either, so the others are impressed that she knows the most advantageous place to camp out. Honey Badger likes to roam around at night.




Here we go. Bear dude wants a rematch. He's named Jerome.

Mai kind of gets off on this stuff... Spotlights everywhere. This whole island is a sports arena.

Leo warned Jerome that Honey Badger is a counter puncher, so he needs to stomp her with the first hit.

And well, that didn't work out. She already felt his hit two episodes ago, so she got him.

Man. Yoko is really pissed at Nomoto. Is there something more going on here than just her being annoyed at an interloper who's a pawn of Shidou?

Well, they kept Sumo Logan's animal side hidden long enough. What a fake out. He totally should have been a fat wolverine.

And cliffhanger for 3 against 1 for Taiga.


I tried making better images of the girls in the end credits, but the filter effects are too hard to deal with and the actual credits get in the way.

Hee. In the omake, the narrator just says that Oshie is both a friend and a stalker for Hitomi. He's not wrong!

The title for next episode is kinda racy - "I'm free to have sex in any way I want!" They could be talking about a whole bunch of people here, not just Eruza and the rapist.
