What Happened in Gachiakuta Episode 3?

Gachiakuta Episode 3 begins with Enjin speaking to Zanka about Rudo’s potential. He explains to Zanka that Rudo has natural talent and that he has already recruited the boy for the Cleaners. Rudo hears this and protests, saying he never agreed to join. Enjin reminds him that he is in no position to refuse. The doctor treating Rudo backs up Enjin, making it clear that Rudo owes his life to the man.
After his treatment, Enjin takes Rudo to a diner and starts explaining how the world works. He tells Rudo that the Trash Beasts are born from discarded items tainted by emotional energy known as Anima. People known as Givers can channel their souls into sentimental objects to create weapons called Vital Instruments, which are the only tools capable of destroying these beasts. Enjin says these powers are rare, and the Cleaners are always in need of more Givers.
Rudo Meets Enjin

Rudo agrees to join the Cleaners if Enjin tells him how to get back to the Sphere. Enjin, however, admits that he doesn’t know, but suggests their boss might have answers. He also gives Rudo some money earned from selling his old clothes and leaves him to figure things out. Just then, a cat runs off with his money.
Rudo chases it down and manages to trap it with a staff, only for Zanka to intervene and ask him to give back the staff. The staff turns out to be Zanka’s Vital Instrument. Zanka gets angry at Rudo stealing his staff, but Rudo manages to explain the situation and diffuse his anger.

However, things heat up again when Rudo tries to be friendly and smiles creepily at him, which Zanka takes for Rudo mocking him. A fight breaks out, and Zanka proves to be faster and puts Rudo on the ropes. Rudo uses a toilet plunger to fight back, hitting Zanka with a splash of poop, which essentially defeats him.
Enjin soon returns with his car and bursts out laughing after hearing the story. He introduces Rudo to Riyo, who starts playing with his hair as they all ride toward the Cleaners’ headquarters.
What to Expect from Gachiakuta Episode 4

Now that Rudo is part of the Cleaners, Episode 4 will likely show him adjusting to life within the organization. We might get to see Rudo sparring with Zanka and honing his combat abilities as he continues to learn about the strange world that he is now a part of.
The episode may also introduce new regions of the Pit and explore the enemies that the Cleaners fight, other than the trash beasts. As Rudo begins to take part in missions, we may see new characters, dangerous enemies, and further development of how powerful the Cleaners are and how the Giver system works.
