They talk fast.

They do talk very fast and I'm happy that Funi decided to pick this one up.

inb4pretentious

The first episode was pretty different from what I expected.
I was quite suprised that they inserted a whole cycle into just one episode, but it was fun and the fast talking really fit the characters.
To make it short, I loved it...but maybe only because I know the novel, for anybody not knowing where this is going, this episode had to be quite a mindfuck in terms of cramming information into your brain XD

LOL SRSLY ..... had trouble keeping up with the subs. Interesting show to say the least.

Jesus Christ! They were talking way too fast for me >_<

Can't wait for this being subbed!

...It's already subbed.

Cool. Where?

...On Funimation.com of course.

May I ask you how do I watch it there? I can't find it.

Speed-reading agh. Somehow, it didn't make my head hurt the way watching English dubs often does.

Darn cliffhanger. And now I wish the ED was up on youtube or somewhere so I could watch just that without going back to the ad-riffic Funi stream.

Just go to funimation.com then click watch videos on the side menu it should be there or click on the ad of the show on the right side of the website

I still don't seem to find it. Can someone be kind enough to screenshot? If it's not too much trouble.

Gah, the talking was waaay to fast. I had to pause every time the text changed -____-''

and @ Rarri, http://www4.funimation.com/video/?page=video&v=4990
Idk if it streams out of the States though. I'm not 100% sure, I heard some people not in the US were having trouble viewing streamed videos on Funi.

Edit:
Wow, this series surely didn't disappoint. I kinda got used to the fast reading half way through but damn, It wastes no time with it's story telling and jut drops you right in the center of it all. I'm looking forward to more. Too bad there are only 11 episodes D:

It's brings me to the same page as before.

I think you can't watch it if you don't live in the States.

Oh well, waiting for other subs then.

Yeesh. Here:

Oh wow. I forgot about that. Yeah you can't watch it if you aren't in the US...:/ now that blows!

For those who can't stream it, lrn2proxy.

I live in the States and I could be watching this via Funi's streaming, but I'd rather wait for a nice HD rip.

Hopefully one will be popping up soon...

Wow, this has the opposite problem of House of Five Leaves in which their scenario is very slow, this one is like Speed Racer talking with animation on the highest level of crack ever. Not like that's a problem for me as I have always been a fast reader but for those who aren't particularly keen on fast talking, I bet they can't wait for this to be dubbed.

As for the episode itself, I really liked it. But then again, with all the positive aspects and well-known people behind this, it was almost a guarantee that I would like it (Director of Kaiba=Instant win). I admit that I have absolutely no idea what the hell is going on though. I mean, this is beyond Angel Beats' first episode. This is like dropping you in the middle but like, not even the middle. It's "here's the premise. Deal with it. We're gonna talk fast."

I honestly like all four of the main characters introduced so far, but Ozu and Akashi-san are my favorites. Ozu because he's so very a clearly evil little bastard and Akashi because she seems cool and can shoot lasers out of her eyes.

Normally, I don't do this but I'm already giving this a 9/10 because everything worked for me. (Fireworks scene was hilarious. "That river is damn shallow!")

I love Spring 2010 season!

EDIT: AKFG doing OP is epic hell yes, win. It's a catchy beat too.
ED is trippy and also has a catchy beat.

EDIT2: Damn this is only 11 episodes!??
