I really dislike that annoying useless girl who was next to Taitou when he 'woke' up after being hit, she's so damn useless and annoying -_-" You don't usually sparkle with happiness when someone could've died while he/she was trying to save you >.<

Wow that was a bit creepy with the talking head... felt a bit like Kore wa Zombie Desu Ka

I wonder what that girl meant by "her powers are coming back since Taitou died ónce for her"... so Taitou has to die in order to restore her mana/magical power? And her 15 year look has almost the same clothes as Amu-chan from Shugo Chara - amulet heart (and Gekkou could pass for an evil Ikuto, I mean they even have the same seiyuu XD)

Hmm so I guess the next episodes will be a Taitou vs Gekkou battle?... don't know if I like this show, it's a bit strange with the magic girl + blood scene's...

Appearantly, in all traffic incidents, ie. people hit bus or by trains etc., they're all decapitated.

That's because it's sung by Akiko Shikata and she also sings a lot of songs in all the Ar tonelico games.
Her music in Ar tonelico is so amazing. <3

The ending reminded me of when Sephiroth stabbed Aerith. Good first episode and it did remind me of Kore Wa Zombie Desu Ka

11eyes mk II from what I have seen so far. The ED is the only redeeming aspect at the moment.

But I guess I'll follow the three/four episode rule and keep going. Maybe it'll get better!

Unlike Zombie Desu Ka, which I loathed with a passion, I actually rather enjoyed the first episode of this. If it goes in more of a comedic 'kill the immortal guy for lulz' direction I'll drop it fast, but if the pacing and mood stays like this I may stick around.

The artwork was gorgeous, especially the CGI seals that appear and heal his wounds. Himea is super pretty too, with her tu-tone hair complete with sparkles. I wonder why she was being tortured in the beginning? She seemed able to escape from her prison relatively easily, onceTaito remembered her. Probably his memories and her physical form were sealed together, so if one was freed so was the other.

There's a LOT of loli on this summer, isn't there? Not that I'm complaining, mind you. Himea squeals delightfully. If the exploit the immortality for comedy thing I hope they at least don't make Himea the one who's killing him every episode. The Sasuke knock-off seems like a likely candidate. LOL @ the school sluts begging to be insulted and abused by student council-san ;)

Pretty, fanservicey, reminds me of a less annoying Zombie. 4/5.

Okay, that was fantastic. Great premise. You can really feel how Taito was basically just an empty shell for those nine years where he couldn't remember Himea. Hoping this turns out to be a good and proper case of deep love like Le Portrait de Petit Cossette.

The girls were cute, not quite sure what to think of this anime yet though.
Sunbeaming the panties and the neck was kinda lame. If you want to censor the gore, don't make it gory in the first place. The imagination fills in the blanks anyway.

I know the anime staff needs money, but the outragious amount of pantyshots and ecchi is really annoying, also, the voices scrach my ears. A really booring first episode...

some of my thoughts:
both of those girls annoy the heck out of me..
the one that 'laughed' about him dieing was.. well.. 'better' than the other on, at least xD but both of their voices are so freaking annoying..
when the pink-haired girl got killed i was like... "YAY! 8D"
well, i don't know but the only person i like so far is the guy that killed the girl (sorry, i'm REALLY bad at remembering names.. lol)..
our main character also annoys me..
i was planning to drop this series BUT the ending of this episode made it.. well.. good twist! so i'll still watch the next episode and decide.. whether to drop or keep watching ^^

I've read the manga before this, and I was surprised they skipped some events, or rearranged the order of things. Some of the events here happened a few chapters later. I am aware, however, that both the anime and the manga are based off of the light novels, and seeing as I haven't read the novels, I can't tell which is a more faithful adaptation.

The art is good and the colors are nice, but what I dislike the most are those laser bars they used, that's just plain ridiculous, especially because not only was it extra distracting, it was also used arbitrarily to censor some things while others were not. I'm really happy to see Taito, Himea and the rest of the gang animated, though.

Incoherent but I won't call it a mess yet. But I couldn't watch the whole episode the first time I tried.

I liked the episode but like a lot of people said the fanservice was a little much. I'll stick with it for now but if the fanservice gets any worse I'll drop it.

i kinda expecting a regualr nobody as an Mc, but this guy is pretty cool.

though the flashback was a bit too long, should have just kept with the main points and than moved on.

and DAT ending

That sure was one amazing episode! Great atmosphere, art and animation! The pace is a bit on the slow side but I'm sure that will improve soon! The introduction of the characters were quite amazing and how they managed to even make from the first episode a cliffhanger was brilliant!

Amazingly well first episode lets see what's next!

The pink and purple gradient hair and the eye designs remind me of No Game No Life. Anyways, it seems like Taito has a proclivity for getting hit by cars.

Wow yes, it really feels like No Game No Life's author! Pretty good start, so that guy is immortal + can get healed with that strange power, I didn't expect Himea to get stabbed at the end, it's already quite serious!

This start definitely surpassed expectation. Certainly not the standard fare of ecchi that I thought I was getting into. Though with that said, I'm glad I get to watch this uncensored since 5 mins into the censored version was unbearable with all of those horrendous light beams.
