I'm glad I let my friend kept hyping me up for the show.

The show didn't disappoint me at all. I really can't wait for the next episode.

The only one I know has subbed Shigofumi so far is FTP-Anime. If anyone know others, they are free to tell as well.

hmm, I'm thinking, if Shouta sends his mail to the next lover of Ayase, will this produce a never ending chain mail? :3

OMG best winter season by a mile.


It's quite true. This is the only real gem one of the few gems I've seen in an assorted sea of utter relative crap.

As for subbers, a lot of different groups have just released (Bakawolf/m.3.3.w., Kagami, and FTP-Anime just released a v2) and I watched the deliciously high rest ftp release. Font was good, translations seemed fine to me, and what really stood out is a couple of the notes they had. One of them, for example, explained that "Fuinkyoku" is the name of the department store in charge of delivering shigofumi, so this group has clearly done it's homework.

I disagree that this is the only good show of the winter season, however I do agree that it's one of the few very good ones.

Yea, I suppose you're right. I had to go back and change my response after looking over the list of winter anime (things like Spice and Wolf raise the bar, and True Tears has potential), but it really isn't an impressive season. This show definitely has the potential to be my favorite of the winter season.

Haha, those two were exactly the ones I was thinking of, too. Persona has a little potential as well but you're right. However, as long as those shows will be good I don't mind if the other shows aren't that great. :D

Wow, I almost jumped out of my seat here at the complete twist in the end. I can't wait to see how they will follow it up to tell the truth.

Maybe I'm weird... but it wasn't THAT much of a twist for me. I was thinking she might go psycho, but I didn't expect it at that moment. I wonder what happens to him now though...

I was thinking she would have just started crying and he would have been like "omg, you did kill your father! why?" or something along those lines and then her pulling a knife out. I wasn't expecting her to just pull a knife out and stab him straight in heart without saying anything lol, well at least not until I saw her looking at the ground when he has his back towards her

This episode was sad :/ and what makes it even more sad is next episode is called rocket lol.

It may be. It's just not the logical step in the usual plot.

I was more surprised when it was revealed that she killed her father, after finding that out I kind of guessed that anything was game for her. Plus, the knife scene was a big hint for both stabbings.

I assume the knife scene was when they were packing boxes? When I first saw that, I had thought she would need to be put on suicide watch rather then suspect her of murder O_o

Wow... One third of Shinigami No Ballad, one third of Kumo No Mukau, Yakusoku No Basho, and one third of unbelievable plot twists in the end (actually, the one that shocked me most was the letter and not the stab because I REALLY didn't saw that coming and that's absolutely rare that I don't see this kinds of things coming ;)), no doubt that this first episode was awesome.

I'll keep watching very enthusiastically I think, if the rest of the series is as good as that. I rate it 10/10 right after the first ep (how long has it been since I saw such a great first episode, Death Note maybe a year and a half ago ?) !

Oh, and the art is ridiculously good too, the music is just perfect and Tatsuo Sato is such a great director, in fact the only annoying thing is the speaking-staff :p

Wow I sure dind't see that plot twist comming at all o.o I was expecting they would form some weird accomplicious relationship, or it would turn out that she had a real good reason for killing her father. But what happened somehow definitely upped my interest a whole lot. I wasn't very interested at the beginning but now I'm almost holding my breath for the next ep! >_>

The show was looking to be a bit mediocre until they pulled that ending out - I'm kinding hoping Shouta will stay dead, he's far too generic and I have a deep suspicion he's likely to angst a lot if they keep him in (after all this is a supernatural themed show and death probably isn't that much of a boundary).

Also - the staff has the potential to get annoying, im more interested in ms stabby and whats driven her to do what she has...

Will definetly check out the next episode - this series could get quite interesting, or it could become very lame :-(

I'm loving the show.

Wasn't quite surprised by the letter, but the ending...well. The most pleasing aspects of the show for me, was the musical score, animation and overall concept.

Simply a Stunning episode. In one single episode they recreate with upmost acuracy one of the most complex feelings, the love, and what a person feels when it is inlove (even when the "ending of the ep" happens).

Shigofumi has a lot more mature feeling that i was really expecting. I will track this one down. Simply amazing EP 1.
