I love Leo and Valya. Good character style. =) IMHO, mixing story with comments was good move too. There was actually many fabrications though. Don't get so serious. It's just an anime after all. ^_^ If I could fly... |

I think this anime was created just to troll stupid slavs. But what we got is awesome b-movie styled masterpiece full of Kurozuka and Jubee Ninpucho TV level win. Fuken epic. 9/10 |

Didn't really care for this movie. It wasn't bad, but it was good either. I thought that the interviews would have been better if they were all ran together at the beginning, to give the viewer the basic setup and then let the anime tell the story. As it was I didn't find myself caring for any of the characters because any time we got with them was quickly interrupted. This felt like a CliffsNotes version of a better movie. 5/10 (Average - not bad, not good) |

Actually, I guess it was kind of boring when I think back on it. I was kind of glad when it finished, in that I wouldn't have wanted it to last any longer. |

1/10 Such stupid movies are necessary to make us (russian people) fools. Thanks Mr. Putin for it. |

No need to get so worked up - the key is not to take it too seriously (it's just entertainment after all ;)Such stupid movies are necessary to make us (russian people) fools. Thanks Mr. Putin for it. But I agree, it was quite mediocre/ |

Russian people mean srs business, lmao. Its only an animated movie people, why get so worked up about it? You have to remember the Germans have had it worse and they don't seem to bitch ;). As for the movie, it failed imo. It had good animation but that's about it since the plot was weaksauce and the RL commentary didn't manage to fit well. I give it a 5/10 |

All our modern culture (including movies, cartoons, TV shows and music) works on this purpose. First Squard - anime?)) No, it`s cheap stupid trash under strong patriotism cover. |

noym said: No, I don't mix up anything. What I meant is just that the japanese aren't afraid to make fun and sometimes in a pretty trashy way of their own history because they know the line between reality and entertainment. It's rather we who mix up everything like unnecessary looking for patriotism and falsifications of history in some stupid cartoons.Xuchiel, you mix up the terms. parody and this bullshit haven't nothing similar Aglenn said: Agree about the "cheap stupid trash" part but don't see anything to do with patriotism - it's not like it's going to be shown on history lessons anywhere and even as entertainment only very few people will see it since anime is still not as widespread in our country. As I said just try to take it easy and have some fun ;)First Squard - anime?)) No, it`s cheap stupid trash under strong patriotism cover. |

You see, there was quite a fuss about FS in russian press or internet. As for me, I never had any good expectations for this crap. But, hey, what all these "awesome japanese animation meets russian story" or "thrilling story about brave pioneers & WW2" revealed into? Like a juicy horse fart into fanboy`s face Animation and graphics were OK so japanese did well. However, two dunderheads, named Misha & Aljosha failed miserably. Along with all these naive belivers ("Oh, anime about Russia, supa-cool. Written by russians, so have no fear) So, troll sovs, you say? )) I knew that "First Squad" is gonna be awful. And it realy is, lol, what a surprise! Modified by CorvaX, 10-08-09, 1:31 AM Игры, конкурсы и голосовалки! Заходи в клуб. There was a MySQL Error. The staff has been notified and is looking in to it.

In short Pros: + Animation (sometimes too static) + Music (but not for everyone) Cons: - Shallow, emotionless realisation of story - Soulless voice acting - Pacing is off - Lacking historical facts Was it suppose to be historic? Or action anime? Maybe supernatural genere? Only thing that I know is this title was boring and unenjoyable. 3/10 |

i was expecting soo much from this...truth be told it wasn't quite that bad, but it felt very dull at times, even the animation sucked at certain points. The characters weren't that great and barely gor screen and it felt a bit rushed too, still it was entertaining. Baman said: I did like the hint that everything might have been happening in our protagonist confused little head. yes, very nice indeed. I'll give it a 7/10 'cause i'm in a good mood. ...might change it to a 6 in the future... |
