| On one look it looks flashy and nice but on the other it's a total mess. Story wise well There is a boy, boy goes to school, boys meets a girl, they enter strange world, run around hopelessly for few minutes until they receive the first nakama power-up and beat the experienced enemies. I say experienced because the guy with the chain was absolutely terrible and his aim suck. Truly, he made about thousands of those chains and just single one made a small scratch... MC on the other hand got a sword and simply stabbed with the pointy end so well, I won't say it was a BS victory given how awful the opponents were. Generally though plot is so simple and generic that there is little to say about it. Other than that... character designs make the MC who is probably a high school kid looks like a elementary kid in other animes so yea. Then last but not least, the fanservice level here is REALLY high! So... well, there it is. |
| The CGI for the characters is decent, but everything else was terrible, i almost puke within the first 4 minutes. Everyone in the anime industry should see this to learn how NOT to animate with CGI. |
| This is officially the first anime to make me feel motion(?) sick, and in only 5 minutes. 10/10 would drop this series again. |
 Once we seize space, we'll all... |
| Lol, what a bad start. I think I need my eyes to be fixed by MC because of this chain stuff. |
 |
| i didn't expect anything, but this is beyond garbage lmao shitty character design shitty CG and background shitty camera angle shitty looks-colorful-with-pretty-colors everything shitty obviously-intentional-overdone-out-of-place giant boobs jiggle and forced fanservices shitty title name like hando sheika shitty looks-creative-weapon-at-first-but-turned-out-to-be-generic-sword-in-the-end-anyway weapon TUESDAY IS GREAT GUYS! |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| I enjoyed this first episode! I have no idea what a Hand Shaker is yet, but I enjoyed the flashback of Takatsuki's past, his current situation as a tech geek, and his strong desire to protect the girl. Animation and music have a very strong "K" vibe, but I loved that series so it doesn't bother me. Koyori reminds me alot of Neko and Anna, so I definitely want to know more about her. Takatsuki reminds me a lot of Shiro too! As for me I will be watching this to the end! Good start, some awkward ecchi moments, but I want to know more about Hand Shakers, Ziggaraut, and the Revelation of Babel! |
| So glad that I'm not a huge manga reader, because the manga readers WHINE WAY TOO MUCH and have to RUIN every adapted anime for the ANIME ONLY WATCHERS! |
| Uh, fuck the what? So, yeah, this is K season 3, except with even more camera-motion movements and boobs. The 60 fps camera movements and chains kinda bothered me, but this is what I've come to expect with GoHands. I do wish they would switch back to Mardock Scramble's animation, same neon bright color and sheen but with far less CG and 3D animation. |
Aeonenleben said: Animation is total shit. Whoever directed this has not a clue about camerawork. The CGI animation is horrendous. How can you fuck up a CGI-animation of a fkin chain? Even the colouring seems off. What a trainwreck. Well, at least they got a 24/7 breast-jiggle animations to entertain the virgins. Shackers /15chars |
Uchihaaa said: Well The Animation Was Somewhat Beautiful :). That's disturbing |
| Hehe I Mean It Was Unique To Say The Least Although It Was Bad |
 |
| For me the most extreme animations so far. Nice but also very exhausting (really glad that there were freeze frames sometimes). I'm not sure if I like the story or the setting. I will check a few more episode. |
| And my winter season was going so well until this aired. Hopefully episode 2 is a little better. Also a small nitpick: It was said that if he lets go of her hand she would die, right? Halfway through the episode I noticed they'd completely changed which hand he was holding of hers, so unless he held both of her hands at the time he switched she should already be dead. |
| Ah, K reincarnated... Sod off. |
| 1/10 and dropped thats all i can say after watchin the first few mins wasnt able to finish this trainwreck.... |
 |
| God, 5 minutes in and this is so bad, haven't felt an insta-drop like that in a long time. Shit CG, shit filters, even the fan service is terrible. |
 |
| Animator 1: "Hey, what colours should we use for this scene?" Animator 2: "ALL OF THEM! BLORGBLJFEFSDBUVBDFEW" Director: "Great! I'll play with the camera and 3D busts while you do that!" Nah. Honestly, the style is fine IMO. It's the animation and camerawork that makes it look so wonky. There was some noticeable glitching/clipping as well. I personally don't plan to watch this unless people suddenly start praising the story, but I had to at least take a look. |
| Rejoice, the spiritual successor to Big Order is here ! those 24fps camera rotations though... ITS TIME TO STOP! |
 |
| That was quite the clusterf**k, reminded me of Transformers fight scenes lmao |

| ......what the actual fuck. You guys have basically summed up my experience. Dropped. |
| The flashbacks from when I bought a scratched game that loaded textures in a freaky way came back. That looked awful |
| H-Holding hand.... h-how LEWD! gemanepa said: You better watch this episode with headphones if you don't want people thinking you are watching some kind of hard porn ;P Too late T.T |
| loved the fanservice not a fan of the CGI but might grow on me i just dont want the MC to be a total pussy |
| This was horrible, train wreck of the season confirmed. Dropped |
  |
| They should've stuck with drawing bishounens |
 |
| I don't have words for this xD The animation gives me cancer and the fanservice was cringe as fuck. 1/5 going to watch this just for the banter |
| Jesus christ, i didnt want to watch it but the curiousity got the best of me and even if i already thought it would be bad from the PV, it was even worst than what i expected. |
STOP SLEEPING ON ODD TAXI |
| wtf... I have nothing to add to this... you just said it all xD my eyes are still bleeding though T_T |
snowbunni said: I think half the episode was just awkward cgi shots of pedestrians walking. It was the best part of the episode, really |

| About animation: There are people that proudly say "I don't care about art and animation as long as the plot is good". Well, the plot of this show is not good either, but even so I look at the animation and ask myself: How? How can they NOT care about art and animation when a bad one can make something so hard to watch? 1.Bad CG: not only they're badly designed, they don't sync with the scenery at all. I also have the impression that the CG is running at a low framerate, but maybe this is just a effect of just how bad it is. 2.Bad angle rotation: is just wonky as hell, it's like an amateur cameraman trying to make their first film, the thing just shakes too much and what was supposed to look epic end up being cringy instead. 3.Bad budget placement LOL XD: powerful animation technics like angle rotations and distorted views are supposed to be used on serious or action packed moments. Using them on a normal highschool student conversation (the one with the stacked girl) just don't work and its also a waste of budget. 4.Bad cuts: By "cuts" I mean the way a scene/angle changes to another one. In this case, many of the cuts don't have any sense of flow or pacing. Things like that can easily break a viewer's focus which is obviously not good. About Plot: From what we have until now, we can barely say this has a story yet. It's already preety mediocre by itself, but the animation made it worse. 1. Introduction and exposition to the MC 2."Introduction" of some side characters 3.Changing the course of MC's life by means of unexplained supernatural phenomenon triggered by special girl. 4.Stupid "if you let go of her hand she die" rule that will definitely go wrong along the way. Bad plot decision. 5.Random fight starts to establish the fact that this is a "battle royale" kind of anime and action packed conflicts will be the main fuel of the show. 6.The two noobs run away until they're cornered. 7.For the sake of plot convinience, the girl have the stupid desire to stop grabbing MC's hand only so he could have a mini breakdown to increases his resolve and trigger his powers that he imediatelly learns how to use. 8.MC that have just learned how to use his power proceeds to rekt his opponent because whoever designed these power don't know how to balance them for competitive use. PLS NERF! About Fanservice: Don't get me wrong, I like fanservice, but this show didn't amused me with it either. Just like everything else in this show, the fanservice don't flow well, it feels unnatural. 1.The boob shaking is more exaggerated and forced than in shows that are fanservice driven. Please don't make boobs shake like the girls had just jumped when in fact she just barely moved, leave such exaggerations for shows that depend on ir for its revenue. 2.The powers of the show being used as means to implement fanservice don't flow well with me. It gives right away that the powers don't have any rules or restrictions for its design and they can (and will) be meticulously designed in order a fulfill a secondary role (In this case, the chain powers were clearly designed to abuse the girl for the sake of fanservice). |

| You are not your body, you are your brain, the "self" that emerges from within it. |
| This might be the ugliest anime I've ever seen. Sasuga Go Hands. |

Looks like Chibi from YT did't like it either, if he doesn't like a show then you know it's that bad |
 |
| This really is the child of K lol I don't have anything bad to say so hopefully the plot is good and the characters are interesting for the most part I doubt that I'll have to worry about the visuals (Those chains hurt my eyes though) and action scenes but man what the hell was that in this ep with the Chain Girl xDDDDDD I thought I was watching a hentai for a second there lol |
| It looks like a shit. Literally shit. 3DCG is a cancer. As expected by GoHands. K was awful if it comes to visual side, but this? My God, it's a disaster. D-D-D-ROP. Yes, mainly because of visuals. GTFO with this shit. The fanservice was probably the only positive aspect of this episode. It was so fuckin' bad, that I even feel bad for this studio.

| My eyes, the art quality was so jagged at the end. Their mission clearly was to make as much things shiny as possible for people to get wooed by it. They failed completely. |

BlackstarFallen said: Ajin has better CG than this. This just looks terrible. I have no idea what's going and the camera angles are all over the place. Horrible start for this show. For stuff like this is why people doesn't give a try to Ajin just because it uses CG |
 |
| It feels like they tried to experiment with too many unconventional ideas in this one and none of it worked in their favor...Though it was bad from what I was hearing I was expecting Big Order bad...it's not quite that bad but it still was pretty bad |
| This is the first time I've watched any airing shows and wtf did I just watch? |
| it's a miracle that this show haven't fall to sub 5 rating zone this is not even niche show, it's just plain bad lol |
Cross AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| Absolute trash. I'm just going to watch this because visually I like it since it reminds me of K Project in that aspect (for obvious reasons). |
 |
| CG looked really bad but the art style and backgrounds are sort of pretty. Fanservice was really awkward. Not really impressed so far but I liked K to an extent so we'll see how this goes. |
EcchiLordMamster said: i can understand the trippy camera, but fuck everyone in here complaining about the fanservice stay fucking salty >.> It's perfectly fine to enjoy fanservice in anything but if it doesn't fit a show, it's a perfectly reasonable complaint. |
| How did they come up with this crap? Let me guess. "Hey guys, let's just remake K but with a worse artstyle and terrible CGI." "As long as we make the story make no sense." "Of course!" |
