After seeing it again with subs, it was so much better. And some tender moments that just added to the great episode. This is shaping up to be a very promising series. I haven't read the novel or manga so don't know how different it is but it doesn't feel like there are gaping holes in the story to me. |

The thrill was great, and the suspense really got to me. This is just what the fall season needs. |

This looks very promising, from all the Anime i seen this season till now this one seems the best. It looked very interesting and has a nice creepy yet romantic feeling to it. The 2 main characters also looked very interesting. The male lead looked very mysterious and also charismatic. While the female lead is more open yet also seems to be hiding a few things. Almost can't wait till next week.  |

Being a 13 episode adaption i would imagine they would have to cut things out. Either way i was pretty much stunned. Now while i love shows that make me think, but a detective show is sort of cliché. However, paranormal elements added into the mix, and the fact he isn't really a detective made this awesome. We will witness if that can keep it afloat now that we know all his tricks. |

By the way for people who didn't know, the same voice actor from Air that did Yukito (The silver haired duded) is doing the main character, Yakumo on here. |

This show has amazing BGM. Both the OP and ED is amazing. ♥Yakumo is so hot ♥ I cannot believe they left out practically all the horror elements shown in the manga. I mean it.... all! The synchronization of the events were better in the manga if compared. Have a lot of expectation from this show. It has to get better in terms of freaking people. At least it should some closer to Shiki's level. Modified by Valentiln, 10-04-10, 4:53 PM  |

Not bad for an intro episode... but we'll see how it further progresses. Otherwise, I got engaged and got thrilled with the episode.      |

This one really let me down. I'm reading the novel (still v01 file 01 though) and must say that whatever that made me love the novel wasn't in the anime. Also didn't like the color choices. |

quite displeased with the first eppy to say the least.. not like I had high expectations.. neither have I read the manga... but the eppy looked very rushed, lame, and naive... apart from a couple of melodies and a bishi I've nothing left in my mind after watchign it... which is... bad T__T let's see how it'll progress in the next eppies.. but if the taken pace is kept and the story doesn't turn out to be at least tiny bit more realistic and serious.. there're high chances I'll drop it... |

The OP fits, Ono Daisuke is perfect like always and the 1st ep was nice. |

At least it should some closer to Shiki's level. I agree the manga version was more thrilling. There were some rather strange choices made for the anime. What was with that leisurly chat on top of a burning building? Fortunately I do not know the story for the upcoming episode, so maybe I will enjoy it more. I really want this show to be good, too. Ono Daisuke <3  |

Well, that was a surprisingly good debut. I've heard so many bad things about Bee Train, and yet I've never gotten round to seeing any of their series, so it's a big shock to me that my first experience with them was highly positive. |

I still think they should have followed the first version of the manga...  |

Also didn't like the color choices. I like the color pallet. I'm glad they didn't go the Blacks and Grays like Death Note. |

I got really hyped for this, and the OP was really cool, but...well...okay I don't know. I haven't read the novels, but I have read the manga adaptions and its takes on the story seemed a bit more engaging...Well, we'll see how this anime turns out. As a first episode though, I think it was pretty good. Though it was kind of rushed, it was probably on time restraints to fit the whole story etc etc and I'll be looking forward to next episode since I've heard great things about this story! Also, I think the soundtrack was really nice. TwT |
