Well, to be honest I was expecting way more than this boring episode, sure sure, he's manly and all but the story in this episode bored me to death, if the next episodes are as boring as thisone then I won't watch it anymore.

It was a cool episode, However I will give this show waaay more leeway becuase of nostalgia! I really enjoyed the Golgo 13 movie back in the day!

Yest It was old GOLGO 13. I hope it will had good plot.

I've been looking forward to this for a long time and it didn't disappoint. Most of my enjoyment comes from the nostalgia factor, but it's amplified by the fact that current anime shows are so overrun with typical shounen themes and fox dieties. This throwback to the good old days really came along at just the right time for me.

And LOL at some of the pretentious anime fans around nowadays.

It wasn't half bad. It's the animation of a long running anime so idk.

There should be improvement in the upcoming episodes.

I guess, you know, when someone gives a show a high score, it can't possibly be that they loved the show - NO WAY, it has to mean they overrated it. It can't be anything else!


That's good to know. I hope it picks up sometime soon then. Impatient person is impatient? =P

It's the adaptation of an old-school manga, so if you've not read the manga or if you're not old-school, you obviously can't like this show, it's as simple as that.

It's actually a very good first episode with great camera work and clearly cut scenes, very well-made classical characters and enjoyable plot. Even the animation is far better than what I thought it would be and the music is absolutely fitting for this kind of mature show.

Oh and DarkSageRK, please stop writing here, you're a big pain in the ass, cyruz has been quite nice to you I think, on top of being objective and giving accurate arguments, and you're being a total asshole with your unfounded personal attacks. Yes he's watched twice as many animes as you, and if you watched some more animes, maybe you could understand and like Golgo 13. If you claim that you have a social life and can't watch more animes, very well, don't post on MAL and you'll gain some time to devote to your social life. No wait, don't watch animes, you can't even appreciate them, maybe you should stop animes too (1/10 for GITS is the most stupid rating I've ever seen in any MAL profile honestly...). And yes, the average rating on MAL is close to 7.5, not 5.5, because the members' votes are taken into account and not the probabilities, we're not throwing a dice randomly so the theoretical average is different from the actual average score. You're wrong on both matters, just accept it.

And yes, English is my second language, I'm sorry I can't speak as well as you in your native language.

Actually, for a second hand speaker, Cyruz writes better English than some native speakers I've seen.

To cap off my running inner commentary of this thread, "Lulz."

Not sure I see the hubbub against the art and animation for this studio. Minimalistic, sure, but it suits the tone nicely. I actually enjoyed that this episode took a slower approach than EXPLODING TERRORISTS ON THE BACKS OF FLAMING DEATH MOTORCYCLES CLUBBING SEALS YOU GUYS HOLY CRAP. For an action title, it's got a kind of subtlety to it, and I think I can dig it.

Cleaned the topic of off-topic posts. Sorry that I let myself get carried away in such a petty argument. ^_ ^

total badass, total suspense. i lol'd at how much he can do in a few hours and me sittin at my desk watchin anime.

Golgo, you make me proud to be a man. This is exactly what manly badass anime should be all about. No bull, this is olskool and it rocks hard!

It was ok. There should be more of those kind of animes. But the first episode was just "ok!".

I am not overly impressed with this cold-hearted assassin. How can they compare this guy with James Bond?

Anyway, the ED was pretty stylish.

Let's watch the next episode ...

First episode seemed juvenile enough in it's content for me to drop it on episode one.

If this show is trying the same sense of 'maturity' that mnemsoyne (sp) tried then it can literally fuck right off.

The manga has been purely episodic for over 30 years, I doubt for some reason there will be some sort of plot any time soon.

I like it the way it is, it reminds me of cartoons I used to watch as a kid on weekend mornings.

Ha ha

It was OK.

Didn't like the random sex though >_>

Means I have to mute the audio to avoid o_0 from family.

I wonder if such a feat is possible.

I disagree. I never was into old-school, but when my friend showed me this ep, I was like O.o I need to watch this.
