how does it not "fit the show"? its a staple in anime... and wtf does fit the show mean?

what the fuck is unique about this anime that it shouldn't have boobs?


Imagine a dark, brooding, philosophical anime with meaningful commentary, interesting characters and dialogue among them, with a nihilistic tone, to set the mood... and then a woman with giant tits enters the scene. I know you probably wouldn't care but that completely wrecks the mood that the show had. Just because fanservice is very common in anime doesn't mean that's a good thing critically speaking. It's fine to not care at all about a show's worth critically but it's preposterous to assume no one else will.


i find that people are just taking these anime way more seriously than they're actually supposed to be

so a girl with giant boobs walks in? and? you lose all concentration?

so a show with all those things can't have a girl with giant boobs? how limiting to say that certain things should never be done because "critically they don't work"

i mean, how boring would this world be if people only did "what critically makes sense"



anyway K wasn't that serious a show and i doubt this intends to be either

The character design kind of reminds me of the Atelier games.

The often used tracking shot was quite weird, but interesting.

Boy meets girl and gets mysterious power. So far, so ordinary.

I enjoyed this episode. If nothing else, it will be my guilty pleasure of winter.

I have to agree with you guys, had some serious Berserk 2016 PTSD flashbacks.


I honestly think Berserk 2016 looked better than this (not good, just better). Given the sheer volume of CG used for the backgrounds and effects, I feel it would have made more sense for the characters to be CG too, at least then they wouldn't be clashing with everything else on screen.

For me, this wasn't good. I was and still am confused on just what I saw beyond just what the supposed story is. The camera work throughout this was just odd to me. I started getting an increasing headache watching this, that rarely (if ever) happens to me. Things were happening without much of a break to let a single explanation (visual or spoken) through. The moaning didn't help my confusion one bit.

This show triggered my Absolute Duo PTSD.

Although cringey it is watchable for me, the MCs reaction in the shower scene next episode will determine whether I stay or not though. That usually is a good indicator about what type of character we're going to have.

The actual 2d animation quality is really good, technically speaking. However, the directing is complete ass where camera would seem like it's moving around for no good reason. The characters didn't even seem like they meshed with the backgrounds half the time, especially since someone thought it'd be a good idea to shove in CG chains everywhere. Also, you could end up killing yourself playing a drinking game based on how many unnecessary lens flares that were present in most of the shots.

All in all, the visuals were so distracting I couldn't tell what the hell was going on, though I doubt the writing was any good to begin with since pretentious-sounding words were thrown left and right with no rhyme or reason. And let's not forget the awkward fanservice...

Will probably watch more anyway to see how much more of a trainwreck this becomes. I think I really like bashing on this show.

This show thought it had everything, romance, hot guys, hot girls, shota and lolis, and probably a dark past or something but because there's too much of everything going on, I think that's where the problem starts. I think the animation style is pretty interesting (if minus the boobs physics) and the music is supurb, but the dialogue and execution probably needs some more work. But lol despite the corny/cringiness I actually enjoyed the episode. It definitely left an impression on me. Will keep watching.

So that's what an acid trip is like.

Honestly, this whole thing was too trippy to really understand. The camera shots were interesting to say the least, but most felt really disorienting. It felt like I was looking through a fish eye lens a majority of the episode. The camera shots seem overly ambitious for the project, as it has a budget of something like 15 frames per second. Which make the show look even worse.

As others have compared, this seems fairly similar to K. The coloring, camera angles, backgrounds designs, etc. The coloring in this show is fairly unique, and I didn't mind it. The one thing I can say I actually liked were the designs of the buildings. They were so odd and unconventional that each one really caught my attention.

Other than that, this really made no sense. There was no real cohesion as it introduced new plot points throughout the episode. Obviously we'll probably get an explanation on most things next episode, but man this was weird.

I'll give it until episode 3.

What bothered me was how that guy was treating his partner like shit. I'm not a fan of bondage(not even in hentai), was someone supposed to get turned on there? I hope not. The animation was super meh: the second half looked beautiful but the first half looked awful. Way too much CGI for my eyes.

Fanservice to me is the least of my worries: the animation made my eyes bleed until the second half. His weapon being a sword was kinda lame and the bad guy was an asshole that I'm glad the show killed off first(hopefully).

The chains animation looked awful too. Given how 2016 was a mess, I'm pretty sure 2017 can't be worse right?

She looks like a masochist so probs don't mind it at all.

The first episode was complete crap tho, its like all effort went into making boob physics and the bondage scene that everything went to shit.

Crunchyroll could have translated bondage girl's "ikimasu!" as I'm cumming, but they just left the literal translation "I'm going" instead. I think we all knew what she meant. lol
Guess it was 2lewd for them, but she was basically having an orgasm throughout the whole episode, so...

This show was pretty terrible. I only liked the sexy bondage girl.

At least the show wasn't as bland as 90% of its competition this season.
Was the story promising? No.
Were the characters interesting? No.
What about the Fanservice? Eh.
Was the animation good? Not necessarily, but at least it was interesting. There was a lot of movement on the background characters and while the Backgrounds and chains looked sometimes horrendous, sometimes awkward... some of the digital effects had a nice touch.
I can see some of these techniques being put to good use in the future - though maybe not on this show.

This deserves one more episode, though the preview certainly didn't look that good.
There is nothing terribly wrong with feeling lost, so long as that feeling precedes some plan on your part to actually do something about it. Too often a person grows complacent with their disillusionment, wearing their discomfort like a favorite shirt - Johnny C.

Hmmm...I'm wondering how stoned GoHands was when they made this show.

Even to say the word 'ambitious' would be a gross understatement. Although the visuals and OST are nice, the mix of 2D and 3D animations was thrown into a food blender.

It's like the show can't decide if it wanted to be a full-on 3D cgi show or not and thus, it created this.

Other than that, it was a pretty below average start, but I'm willing to keep on watching (and suffering) to see if the show can get any grasp of consistency anytime soon.

The last show I watched due to its ambitiousness was Taboo Tattoo, and at least most of its fighting scenes had pretty good animation. Shame that the rest of the show was poor. =/
