WTF! I was not expecting a S&M couple, not even all the noises she would do when he would hit her with his feet, that was kinda disturbing...

Something is very wrong with the animation. Its like the frame rate on the CG doesn't match that of the 2d animation. Everything is very jerky or laggy looking.

I thought the animation looked pretty good! It was beautiful for the most part.

What the hell is this?

Will someone please tell the camera to chill? It jerked all over the place/cut to places it really didn't need to, especially during parts at the school.

Okay, so the girl isn't actually his sister...so why the hell does he care so much?!

"You think you're a Hand Shaker, don't you?" No, I don't even think he knows what a goddamn Hand Shaker is, and neither do I.

Why does the antagonist have some chick in bondage who randomly makes pornographic moans as he steps on her for power?

Ah shit.

I started this and so I'll have to finish it.

Definitely don't watch this in front of other people without headphones or something man

The music is nice at least

But it's always a dangerous thing when the series assumes you'll be okay if it just plops you in the middle of everything and see where it goes

Well this was pretty bad. My friend recommended this to me knowing it was bad but it turns out it's not even the ~so bad it's good~ type of bad
I felt like I would've somewhat enjoyed this if I was high or took some acid
All I remember was bondage chains girl and white haired girl that was glowing so bright she might as well be a human lamp

The bright colours and CGI gave me a headache, angles make no sense and hair moves unrealistically. I know everyone else already made this comparison but K Project was much better in terms of animation.

As for the story.... wow. No wonder it has such bad ratings.

As a fan of the K project, I was excited for this. But oh my gosh the gratuitous fan service was a turn off. It had the signature look and soundtrack of K which was a plus and the concept could be good.

The first time anime made me have motion sickness.

This looks like shit, and the fan-service is super cringy.

Dunno about the story and writing but i did really like the visuals and i didn't really dislike the camera work nor did i dislike the cgi and i like the character designs especially the ones of the background characters which are all pretty well animated smh lol

And the animation itself is good and consistent so dunno how people are calling it bad (decent frame rate without having too much deformed frames even tho the art is far from simple)
In other hand I can see why people are finding the visuals to be ugly tho and why they are hating om the camerawork .


Those tits tho lol


Tbh i expected a slideshow fest with a shit ton of deformed faces and far worse cgi and camerawork because of all the negative shit i've heard about the anime

Yeah, i really hate the decision using that crappy animation. I mean, the fuck with that 3D effect with nonsense at all? It looks unreal, man. It just, man, weird af to even consider as an animation. The art design was cool, tho. But still lack of its concept. Its too powerful that couldn't matched the animation style. Its just worse at many element. Lmao. What a day i used to clear this shit. Whatever. The storyline so far kinda interesting. I just continued watching to know what was goin on with its plot. Only that.

Also, to hell with the character. Its too dull to even considered them as a solid character. I just used it as a way to bring a laughter at my all time. Only that. Even with that shitty annoying moan that really annoyed in the rest of the episode. The fuck was that? Lmao. Lets continued, then!

What was this beginning? Well, I'll be honest, Hand Shakers is a meme within anime and me watching this show is just to reaffirm what I imagined, but it is negatively exceeding my expectations.

Without much comment, a just awful start, with a very flawed production.

Okay I expected way worse. It's definitely bad and all the clichés are hit out of the ballpark, but it feels like this shows art and aesthetic is unique. I'm sure it's a downward spiral from this point on...

While the animation is choppy and poor at times, especially pertaining to the characters themselves; I do like how shiny and unreal the scenery is. It's as if even the normal world in this setting is some sort of cosmic dreamscape.

Koyori does not talk at all, and only makes subtle vocalisations at times to convey emotions like surprise, making her unique and intriguing even for a kuudere. The main character doesn't seem to question the bizarre events happening in this episode much, but maybe he was superstitious to begin with.

Seems to be a battle royale story, with different "Hand Shaker" competitors trying to eliminate each other. You've already got a punk guy with chain powers who tortures his partner with huge tits into attacking, which is quite something. My one question is how strict this "If you don't hold their hand, they die" rule. Might make everyday life a pain for Tazuna, even if Koyori is pretty cute.

What kind of fucking acid trip is this? I don't know where to begin; the plot revolves around these two holding hands 24/7? And the art style? What the fuck is this art style? The color palettes are a color vomit, and the illumination feels totally off, everything is ridiculously shiny, the 3D CGI blends too badly with the 2D animation, it hurts to watch any of this.

The soundtrack doesn't match the scenes, the characters have as much personality as a rock, and what the fuck is wrong with those antagonists?

I'm gonna have a panic attack due to how wrong everything here feels.
Pretend there's something flashy and cool here.
