Tougen Anki – Season 1 Episode 3 Recap & Review
Blood Eclipse Release Episode 3 of Tougen Anki continues from the Oni Tag that Naito has initiated for the Oni students. Their goal is to return to the school without getting caught by Naito. He divides them into teams—sending Shiki, a shy girl named Homare, and Shiki's supposed rival, Jin, to go first. Once inside the forest enclosure, Jin and Shiki end up in a fight, trying to battle it out. Shiki is shocked by Jin's ability to manipulate his blood into chainsaw blades. Meanwhile, Naito, observing the group from afar, is impressed by Jin's ability to draw two different types of weapons. As much as Shiki tries, however, he's unable to summon his blood shotgun again. That's when the quiet and awkward Homare arrives, just as Jin attacks Shiki using his Blood Eclipse Release. Shiki barely manages to save Homare from the assault. Seeing Shiki's wounds from trying to protect her, Homare enters a traumatic state. She unexpectedly unleashes her own Blood Eclipse Release, summoning a massive blood giant that begins attacking both Shiki and Jin with fatal force. They soon realize that the giant is trying to protect Homare, yet its behavior is wild and uncontrollable. Meanwhile, Naito continues to observe. He is joined by the principal, who reflects on the history of how Oni children were once killed or experimented on simply because of their ability to manipulate blood—a technique now known as Blood Eclipse Release. Just when it seems like Naito may have to intervene, Shiki finally understands the key to unlocking the technique: the strength of the image of the weapon they want to form from their blood. With this realization, he successfully manifests a massive shotgun and fires at the blood giant. Both Jin and Naito watch in shock as Tougen Anki Episode 3 comes to a close. The Episode Review Tougen Anki keeps getting better with each episode, delivering new and thrilling action sequences that keep us hooked. While the storytelling could have been tighter, this episode offers a deeper glimpse into the social stigma and dark past of experimentation on Oni children. The anime clearly aims to portray the Oni as a wronged and discriminated group, almost like a story told from the villains' side in My Hero Academia. It's also fascinating how the Blood Eclipse Release technique is shown to be deeply psychosomatic, reflecting each character's inner world. This creative storytelling gives us a peek into every character's personality, trauma, and worldview, just through the weapons they shape their blood into. For instance: A shotgun for Shiki, who's a bit over-the-top and impulsive. Blades for Jin, a sharp yet quietly intense character. A stylish umbrella for Naito, reflecting his sophisticated fighting style. And a defensive, rogue blood giant for Homare, hinting at her traumatic past and overwhelming need for protection.
