Last episode really focused on Alex’s dynamic with Worick and Nicolas and to me established some serious chemistry Alex has with the two. This episode instead turned to focus on Worick’s backstory and his origin under a different name and a prestigious family, while also showing his unique talent that makes him just as valuable to the police as Nicolas. If there is one thing episode 4 served to do, it was to make me feel like this show really wants me to ship an ot3. This isn’t even Samurai Champloo levels: this show is establishing that Alex is in danger but belongs there, Worick and Nicolas will never leave each other’s side, and that this OT3 is perfect I don’t care what you say.

Worick’s got the ability to remember essentially everything he’s even skimmed. This made his life as a child complicated because he could remember everything he ever needed to learn instantly and made it easy to rebel against his instructors, so he was labeled as ‘defective’ by his servants and seen as a problem. Then they hire a bodyguard for him that’s deaf- yeah, these two have been together since their freaking teens.

We see a lot of plans coming together and the rampage of a very powerful Twilight. It’s interesting to finally see one on the same level of Nicolas and he has a pretty interesting design. It’s hard to outright hate boisterous and super powerful characters because come on, super kawaii. Oh, I meant kowaii, my bad guys. He scares the shit out of me.

I feel like whatever happened to send Worick away from his life as Wallace is very critical and it’s clear it changed his opinion on his deaf friend. He seemed to believe he might have been in more established danger thanks to his bodyguard having such a handicap, but their friendship began with him not being able to read a book. And his ability to speak has clearly gotten better from being a kid, ouch.

As usual I enjoyed Gangsta. All I can say is I can’t wait and I’m jealous Midnight gets to cover the first fight between two Class A/0 Twilights. If this episode showed anything, Nicolas isn’t just a freak of nature, he’s something beyond comprehension. Seeing the sheer slaughter the other A/0 caused really nails in ‘Yeah, Nicolas is this badass’.

Now just to figure out from here, why do they want to kidnap so many people? Why outright kidnap them, not kill them? The intrigue. Stay tuned!
