I think that's Stryfe, not the Silver samurai. Could be wrong though.

The first episode showed a lot of promise and I really liked it. I think that the ending is more fanservice than what is actually going to happen in the series. It sucks that they won't be showing too many of the X-Men, but a centralized cast could push the story along better I guess.

I know :( it's that Onslaught is my favorite powerhouse villain from American Comics Books, and seeing him in anime would be a dream come true. But agree, we will need Captain America, Thor, Spiderman, Hulk, The Fantastic 4 and others. If they make it with 50 to 52 episodes, a good director and studio it might work, but I doubt that Marvel and any Japanese anime studio will take that risk, but I hope someday they do, because it would be worth it.

Nate Gray is my favorite character in Marvel. Plus I always thought kinda fits in the anime universe or in other words he is IMO the only Marvel character that would look most badass of all in Anime.

Age of Apocalypse in anime would look insane and is another one of my favorite stories in Marvel.

One of the things I didn't like was that Gambit and Rouge weren't in this series. Also as someone else mentioned the setting taking place again in Japan kinda sucks.

Yeah X-Men themselves as a team bring more inspiration to create something better.
Seeing wolverine though, i have to wonder why wasn't this guy in the Wolverine anime instead of that unknown bishounen Wolverine lookalike.
The Wolverine anime would have been better if the real Wolverine was in it.

Many here say Storm looks hot but although the body is fine the face switches off and on. Some moments she looks good ad sometimes her face looks a little ugly. Really confusing. Males seem to have more stable design.

BTW was that Hinata they kidnapped? I couldn't help but think "Oh look it's Hinata" the moment i saw her.



Because this is how Wolverine really is. I don't even know who that guy in the Wolverine anime was. We ain't gonna turn every male into a smooth-talk bishounen just to please the teenage female populace. You can masturbate to Cyclops if you want.

Maybe am the only one but am happy Rogue isn't there. I'm a little of an old fox in the X-Men comic who loved the first team of X-Men and she wasn't really a part of X-Men until many years later. I never thought of her as a very nice addition and i still prefer seeing back classic characters like Nightcrawler and Colossus.That metal head Russian could really kick ass.

so this is like the rougher version of fairy tail? XD
like
wolverine as natsu for being so tough
cyclops as gray because he lost someone important
storm as erza cause she's hot
beast as happy cause XD
and the jap as wendy cause she's little?
oh and prof as makarov cause dunno XD

lol at imagination XD

Nop, you're not wrong, that is definitely Stryfe, 100% sure, and I hope he appears, but I think him appearing in the ending credits was probably like some type of homage to him and to the others that appear in the ending and probably will also not appear in the anime.

WOW this one looks promising XDD I really enjoyed X-men during my childhood days and watching this as an anime is nice too :D I hope this won't let me down XDD

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you're right, it's Stryfe. I didn't pay much attention to the spikes, looked at the helmet, saw silver armor and thought back to Shingen Yashida in "Wolverine". As a japanese character would have made sense... but of course... thanks for correcting me, BladedWarrior. ^^


That would be a dream come true - an epic tale, time enough to introduce the characters, a nice balance between action and drama... I'd be so in.
But then again, right now I just hope, they don't f*** it up with this 12 episodes. ;)

I've lowered my expectations considerably after Iron Man and Wolverine, but I've got to admit, this was a very good 1st ep.
Than again, I thought the 1st ep ep of Wolverine was much better than the start of Iron Man, so I'm not gonna get my hopes up yet.
I also don't agree that Wolverine would've been much better if the character-design had been like shown here. A lot more was lacking from that series to make it so-so.

decent first epd, this is the wolverine that should of been in well...wolverine lmao! Looks like they went with the hair design storm had in the movies, it's usually a bit longer.

not all xmen is present though, they appear to be focusing on the more popular/early day ones. Not not gonna give my hopes high but I'll follow.

Posting just to say...

Sapient squid. Hell yes!

Apart from Beast looking like a puppy dog, it's a solid episode.
Logan's character design is completely different from the Wolverine anime.
Dunno which I prefer. And yes, I know that this version of Logan is the most accepted one. Feels weird though that he was going to Madripoor.
Anyways, the budget of the opening sequence was great. And next episode seems to be full of action as well. Let's see how this third project goes.
Who wants to bet that Blade will make a cameo here around halfway to the show xD

Surprised that many people are posting. Thought people would go away after Iron Man and Wolverine and only diehard watchers would stay(like me). Oh well.

Well of course that anime had many problems but this Wolverine would have been better not just for the design but because of the attitude. Wolverine isn't some sweet talk smooth guy, quite the contrary. In the wolverine anime not only did he look different but he also had the behavior of Cyclops instead of Wolverine.

It was pretty well done and all i can say is hot damn Storm is quite Hot! I was in awe the whole episode cause of her.

everyone else looked appropriated enough however Beast kind of remembered me of Kimahri from FF10 and Cyclops kind of reminded me of Light from death note minus the visor

Storm looks like Halle Berry, and she's hot. Wolverine got re-designed and lost his bishines, thanks god. Cyclops is emo AS ALWAYS, and Beast has his appearance from his stage 2 mutation. In other words I like the character design, not much about the plot, although I don't like that the series MUST BE IN Japan :/ Hope the X-men will fight mutants rather then some stupid robots. Also BRING BACK ROUGE !!!!

I've rarely seen a proper "team" in anime, myself, and usually primary protagonists are easy to pick out. Although this is clearly leaning toward Cyclops for filling that role, the rest of the team has gotten enough screen time to balance it out somewhat. Besides, Cyclops is the leader, so it's not really unexpected. I'm just glad to see something a bit different.

Also, I'm disappointed that almost no one in this thread has managed to spell "Rogue" correctly, despite insisting that they like her. Shame on you.

I spelled it correctly but i was the one disliking her. ^_^

A lot of characters look similar, so it's really easy to make that mistake and I don't really blame you. =)

Anybody have any theories on who the mystery kid is that Professor X couldn't mind read?

So, professor X looks like a slimmer version of Shingen Yashida from "Wolverine."
Storm looks like the animated version of Halle Berry.
The " Beast" looks more like a cat.
And Wolverine has gone to another change.

well duh....

but i don't like beast's model, or Storm's new name. i had always wanted to see this one and they did a fine job with it. i don't like wolverine's attitude in this one though. he is a badass but not a joker.


as for Rogue, i think she was probably the most OP of them all.....well except for juggernaut. i think they would need a different arc for her to be in it and have her real powers. it seems this one will be focusing on the phoenix and related stories.

The beginning was great, I wonder if they will try to do the Dark Phoenix Saga.
Now I'm curious to see how will Magneto be.
