I get that the media is fucked up enough to blame it all on the guy that saves everyone (even though they didn't really explain that properly) but being a dick to the mourning brother? Do they even have souls?
The whole scene with Aria and her mom was ridiculously melodramatic.
Kinji going into hysteria mode by being turned on is equally ridiculous.
Kinji somehow deducing that Aria was in danger purely by being on a plane was also ridiculous.
Kinji not getting straight to the point with Aria when it was obvious the BK could hijack the plane was completely facepalm-worthy
How the hell are they allowed guns on a plane?
How the hell is it a good idea to USE guns on an airbourne plane?
Why did Riko feel the need to tell her life story like that?
And her Keikaku-dori is extremely circumspect.
And what's this crap about Holmes? This world is set in place where Sherlock Holmes was real?
And how is it that Kinji had enough time to scream Aria's name and not enough time to prevent Riko shooting Aria?

If this episode did this to you, you might want to just stop watching. This is pretty standard Hidan no Aria stuff.

Kinji being aroused to enter hysteria mode was established in episode 1, I don't know why this is still a point that needs to come up. In hysteria mode he is ridiculously fast thinking. He connected the dots and realized the butei killer Riko was targeting Aria, of course he didn't know it was Riko until it was revealed though.

I feel like this has been said multiple times in the last page but Butei aren't subject to normal laws, they can carry weapons and discharge them pretty much anywhere. Though I'll give you that shooting it out on a plane isn't that smart.

Riko's plan makes sense if you think about the fact that she is just "Lupin the 4th." Holmes always had a partner so she needs to set up Aria with one. She knows about hysteria mode so she decides Kinji would work and sets the plot in motion. This is all to show that she beat a Holmes which is something her great grandfather couldn't do. And yes it was obvious in the episode but Holmes, Lupin and many other famous fictional characters were real characters in HnA universe.

Kinji isn't in hysteria mode at the point they are on the plane, he can't react as fast as Riko or Aria who for all intents and purposes are rank S. Even Riko who is only ranked A officially.
