Fire Force Season 3 Episode 6 – “Beyond Prayer” – aired on May 10, 2025, and oh boy, it’s the ultimate holy smackdown you’ve been waiting for! 🔥✝️ It’s classic anime chaos: two overpowered dudes go full Super Saiyan Jesus and punch their way through philosophy, trauma, and fiery explosions for 20 straight minutes. What more could we possibly want?
This episode throws us into the burning heart of Shinra vs Burns, and it doesn’t hold back. Blue flames flying, flashbacks firing, slow-mo flips… even if a few animation cuts look a bit janky (Shinra’s kick was less “badass” and more “bad frames”), Studio David still delivers that visual heat in the final act. When Shinra unlocks that next-level form, everything goes full 🔥🔥🔥.

But it’s not just style — there’s substance too. We finally get to peek inside Captain Burns’ conflicted soul. Turns out, even this faith-fueled titan isn’t immune to doubt. His flashback reveals the cracks in his loyalty to the church — a man torn between belief and brutal truth. And when he tells Shinra he’s “too old” to fight the system anymore? Bruh, that hit harder than any flame punch.
And just when you think the episode is wrapping up with the boys’ clash, BOOM — Iris Awakens! Our favorite nun (and low-key background MVP) pulls a last-minute miracle and saves Company 8 from becoming dragon BBQ. It’s short, yes. It’s undercooked, maybe. But still, seeing Iris glow up and tap into Pillar power? Hype. Let’s just pray Fire Force gives her more to do next time and doesn’t put her back in the “cheerleader in holy robes” role.
Overall, Episode 6 is pure Fire Force peak energy. Not flawless, but full of soul, heat, and a taste of what’s to come. The church is cracking, the flames are rising, and Shinra’s only getting started.
