Not a fan of the unevenness of the violence, let me start off with that. We have lead in with headshots galore, women mangled in car crashes, but a witness is only wounded in his arm (after being suggested he was killed), and Chateau is spared by this new assassin foil? At least the non-killings were by the same character, so I can hand wave it as his character. Not the most exciting cat-and-mouse. The entire episode is spent to say that there is bad blood between Ryang and someone who thinks he wronged them. That's not a worthy revelation for the amount of story (non)progression we got.

Also, I glossed over this last episode, but Chateau's work associates are aggressively boring. "Did I see her with Ryang?" "She's not picking up", "I'm worried." "She's probably fine." Yawn. Another cryptic flashback also does not impress.

So far, I think the focus on action is working against Koroshi-Ai; the action isn't interesting enough to carry it and the premise is slow to pick up because of it, so here's to a refocus soon.
