8 Best Action Anime You've Probably Never Heard Of
Action and anime are virtually inseparable, but for whatever reason, these excellent anime have never gotten the attention they deserve.
Rudo Meets the Cleaners
Surebrec Join the Givers for His First Mission
After Rudo and Zanka accidentally crossed paths with each other, the duo got engaged in an ugly fight. The altercation began due to a minor misunderstanding, but fortunately, it also ended on a humorous note, with Rudo using a plunger to attack Nijiku. When Enjin arrived at the scene, he could not help but see the funny side of their petty squabble.
Join the Cleaners. We need people like you. ~ Enji to Rudo
After his accidental acquaintance with Zanka, Rudo was taken to the Clearner's headquarters by Enjin, where he met Semiu. In the short meeting, it seemed that Grier could tell that Rudo was special, but she kept her insights to herself for some mysterious reason. Later, Enjin felt that Surebrec should meet their boss and decided to take him to his office.
But just before they were going to enter, Enjin informed Rudo that he should keep his curiosities in check and ensure that he does not inquire about the boss's Vital Instrument or ask him how he could return to the Sphere. He stressed how their leader had earned the respect of the Givers, possibly to make him understand that he must maintain boundaries and show respect.
However, they soon found out that the boss was away and wouldn't be around for a while. Later, Rudo met Riyou Reaper, Gris, and other members of the Cleaners. Interestingly, he came just in time to join them for a mission. Riyou and others accepted Rudo immediately and were quite friendly to him. As they stepped out to fight the Trash Beasts, they protected their new friend and helped him understand how things worked on the battlefield, even saving him on a few occasions.
Eventually, Riyou defeated the last Trash Beast to end the battle, but was shocked to discover that it had a Vital Instrument implanted into it. This made no sense since only Givers are known to use these objects. Meanwhile, one of the people who had tried to kidnap Rudo in the past gets abducted by a mysterious man, who inquires about Surebrec's whereabouts. He seemed interested in the fact that Rudo is a Spherite, which could mean trouble for him.
Gachiakuta Episode 5 Release Date
Gachiakuta's Upcoming Episode is Exciting
Gachiakuta episode 5 will be released on Sunday, August 10, 2025. The upcoming episode is titled "Raiders." Based on the preview images released so far, it appears that Rudo will acquaint himself more with the Cleaners at the headquarters, perhaps even participating in a party. This could be a sign that Surebrec has relented and is most likely slowly accepting himself as a member of the Givers.
Meanwhile, the mysterious man inquiring about Rudo is going to feature in Gachiakuta episode 5 as well. He appears to have some sinister plans for the protagonist. Since it has been revealed already that Spherites can fetch a handsome sum of money, it is possible that the villain is driven by monetary gains. But fans will only know for sure when the upcoming episode is released.
Interestingly, one of the preview images also shows Zanka engaged in a brutal fight with someone, but it is unclear who he is fighting or what led to the confrontation. For now, it's safe to say that Gachiakuta episode 5 is going to be exciting and filled with action-packed fight sequences.
