Un Go Episode 5


With the new character Komamori in tow, we start out at a funeral for a group of students killed in a terrorist act. The one doing so is a slightly wacked rightist with a bad reputation.


Central to the whole event is the unveiling of a magnificent commemorative statue. Only the statue holds a deadly secret.


And of course one of the prime suspects is this weeks bishoujo. Figures.


But something changes this go round. Shinjurou screws up. And it forces him to do some soul searching.


This ep is a little erratic. In order to cover a ton of ground, it raced through the first half, almost a little too fast. But then it evened out in the end. Still, though the case was a bit more complicated (or, less...my initial guess was still right) the interesting narrative is the background one, and it is moving a bit slow.


However, big plus for the bit more information on why Inga and Shinjurou work together. So that was cool.
