LatestEnki realises the prisoners have escaped as Mitsuru and Kenshirou begin questioning the situation. Meanwhile, Trois and Honey free Kiji who takes care of Daisen Kokoriki and Daisen Youriki before defeating Ruka. Jyugo finally finds Hajime before freeing him and Samon from their cells. Kiji handcuffs the inmates, but they are suddenly confronted by a hoard of surveillance dolls as are Jyugo and Hajime.
Four men are assigned to the prison: Jūgo, a man who attempted to break out of prison and ended up extending his jail time; Uno, a man who likes to gamble with women; Rock, a man who likes to get into fights; and Nico, a man who likes anime.
Writing
Absurdist comedy that commits fully to its ridiculous premise.
Acting
Tomokazu Seki's Sugoroku steals every scene he's in.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Based on a web manga by Futamata Shou; the anime adaptation significantly expanded the supernatural elements from the original.
The show parodies classic prison break films while subverting yakuza tropes common in seinen anime—it's basically Shawshank Redemption for idiots.
