The sheer stupidity of Kira this episode is astounding, putting the cat plant in the attic and not expecting the curious kid to go check what it is, kids are curious that's what they do.
And then he spills his beans and reveals his entire existence outloud while in the attic, Araki didn't even have to do that, the kid would've logically figured it out without Kira denouncing himself to the world, and if he wanted to store the cat plant he should've done so outside the freaking house.
There's nothing wrong with eating Mushrooms for the first time in front of that unsuspecting woman but in front of Jimmy Neutron, yikes.
The cameras and audio recoders must be hidden pretty well for Kira not to notice them at all for his stay so far in his new home
Those air bubbles must be pretty solid to have held Hayato like that.
With all that said, good episode, Kira episodes are unarguably the most enjoyable.

Well okay Crunchyroll... I don't blame you, I don't really care either, maybe you should've at least translated the stand ability though.

To be fair, the kid only knew the cat in the attic because the hidden camera. Kira doesn't know he was spied on. Then he monologues at the end because he feels confident and certain no one is around. I won't say he was getting careless or stupid, hell him getting over confidence is in his character

The kid would've checked the attic either way unless they lock it from him, nah it's still stupid for Kira to monologue outloud when he's trying to protect his quiet life though yes it goes with what he did earlier in the series.

Why would the kid check the attic if it wasn't for the camera

Just what I was waiting for...a whole episode featuring the daily family life of one murdering hand fetishist. It's been teased for a while, but I'm so happy to finally get an entire episode with just Kira, Shinobu and Hayato.

The more I see Kira, the more I can't help but route for him even though he's done some downright terrible things. I kind of want him to just stay with this family, but ofc that isn't possible and it's only a matter of time :/

I really do love Shinobu and her fangirling though- it's great to see a little ship-teasing here and there bc despite the circumstances I do like Kira x Shinobu and I pity the woman. She's finally happy, but the guy she's happy with has basically ruined any hope of a (long term) happy family life she could've had!! Double edged sword much!

Also, goddamnit Kira, you're meant to monologue INTERNALLY, not out loud -_-Now Hayato is certain he's not his dad.

Hoping we get more of the faux family next ep, but it's looking like a two parter so I'm not too sure. Can't believe there are only 9 eps left...I'm dreading seeing this one go ;_;

Haha. Man, Araki sure is detailed...



Well, this was the most JoJo-ish episode yet. Dead cat with a Stand becomes weird plant-cat hybrid thing that spits out deadly air bubbles. Wonderful stuff.

I love Shinobu. She annoyed me at first, but she's actually very kind, loving and sweet. In fact, I'm quite fond of all the female characters in Part 4. Josuke's mom, Yukako, ghost girl, and now Shinobu are all great.

What makes Shinobu even more interesting is the sudden change she's bringing about in Kira. He's definitely a complex villain.

Episodes like this one are one of the many reasons why Part 4 is one of my favorites in JoJo. I love how Araki can take what would otherwise be a ordinary slice-of-life setting and create something truly unique with his own bizarre storytelling and style. And the fact that this particular subplot focuses on a serial killer trying his darndest to hide a cat-plant hybrid in order to hide his real identity makes it both incredibly intense and kinda humorous in a dark way.

This feels like death note. Even though I know Kira's a sick bastard that needs to answer to his crimes, I kinda don't want to see him get caught either....At this point, I wouldn't mind seeing him settle down with the wife.

I hate that kid. He's too creepy.

I was just about to say I was getting an L vs Kira vibe from this episode. Unlike you I really want him to get caught and have the kid work with the Jojo gang to take him down. Also really? The kid seems less creepy than most of the stand users we've seen.

Two problems I have about this episode. 1. Kira's careless monologuing 2. Putting evidence in the house knowing the kid had been observing him.

Besides those two points, Man was it fun watching Kira fight a plant cat! I actually really like these episodes in part 4. Kira's casual days are just so fun to watch. Way better than the rat fight (I hated the rat fight).

Animals with a stand always make funny stories.

I wasn't expecting the idea of the psychopathe taking a liking in his new life with people around him.

5/5 For an elementary kid, the child must be pretty disturbed to have a camera installed in his parents bedroom.

I wonder how that cat plant thing can be useful to Kira. It doesn't seem like it's worth the trouble.

That Hayato kid is clever. He's also very observant, he probably got it from stalking his own goddamn parents. Seriously who does that? Putting cameras in their parents' room. What's worse is that he's like 6.

Kira should stfu and stop thinking out loud lol!

So that's the Feral Cat... I thought it was another one of Killer Queen's additional bombs like Sheer Heart Attack when I first heard about it lol

Shinobu is sooooooo adorable ♥ Especially when she rolled over and backed away from the cat. The cat on the other hand is one of the most bizarre Stand Users in the show, turning into a sentient feline plant.

Kira's slowly falling in love~ Him feeling something he never felt before and denying it like a tsundere made me smile despite him being a psychotic murderer.
Hayato is one sharp kid for a kindergartener/grade-schooler, knowing how to counter Stray Cat's air shackles so quickly and even learn Kira's secret as a bonus. How he got those cameras up there is a mystery though xD

tbh i felt very ambivalent in the last few minutes though. as i couldn't decide on whether i wanted the kid to be caught or not. On one hand, Stand using serial-killer but on the flip side - the kid creeps me out way too much!
Hilariously enough, the kid used the same maneuver most kids do after doing something wrong and getting caught afterwards. Blame it on the pet! XD

Eeeeeggghhhh that vein gore was hard to watch. A tiny little air bubble in his vein and I'm gonna have nightmares now

Weird that a cute cat got turned into a plant lol

Also, recently the cast was revealed for The Promised Neverland dub. I only just now connected that Laura Stahl (voicing Hayato here) is the same one voicing Ray on TPN because it was a kid hiding and trying to not be found by an adult figure lol. Funny coincidence

Shinobu was funny with admiring her husband.

Hayato was very suspicious and now he seems to understand that the person who looks like his father is not his father.

About cat turned into a plant... funny and cute, yet one of the most bizarre things from this Part, while it had a lot of those already. :D Them gore scenes were also original. Instead of simply scratching Kira's body, the kitty launched an air bubble to his vein.

I've figured it out
Diamond is Unbreakable is a slice of life anime

I actually really liked this episode, and the dangled possibility that Kira might actually grow to love Shinobu and maybe become a little less murderous

Hayato is one messed up kid...he watches his parents with a hidden camera and tracks when his mom is naked. I thought Hayato might be a girl at first since he looks like a tomboy girl

Well, here's something new! A cat's death! Not to mention, a plant-cat-stand combo!

Kira caring for Shinobu is actually pretty adorable, to be honest. Will he actually care about her wholeheartedly in the near future? That will be interesting.

Hayato may just be a key aspect to bring Kira down... He just needs to find Josuke or Jotaro.

You know shit goes down when an animal gets their own ''thoughts''

Kira vs Stray Cat. I can't believe that he had such a hard time against a plant. But yeah, understandable. The cat's ability was fucking overpowered. Able to control AIR FREELY. If a human had that, he'd be one of the strongest stand users out there.

Kira's OST goes hard

Well, the brat is on the right track.
