lulz at the "will drop if gay" and the "it shouldn't matter" people while it is funny that people are already putting the finger on the trigger waiting for gayness, it's equally funny to see the people want them to feel bad about not watching what they don't want to anywho, how bout dat city? |

Extremly boring... and really gay. If I had known it was going into "he's my best friend forever" in wouldn't have watched it. Then again... I should have known: it's labeled josei... what else could it be? |

I could care less if it's shounen-ai or yaoi or whatever, as long as they aren't getting it on in front of me I'm fine. But really, the plot is shit. Wait, what plot? ![]() |

HATE the OP. Love the episode and the "suggested shounen ai." Can't wait till they grow up and Shion's hair turns white. Wanna know how that happen. Am I the only one that noticed the extreme similarity to Allen and Kanda, character-design wise, I guess? |

I enjoyed it, and I really didn't get the same vibes as everyone else seems to be getting. I don't think it will end up being that kind of show, but if it is I don't care as long as it remains interesting. The sexuality of characters should never matter as long as it feels authentic. How about people wait more than 1 episode to start labeling something or reviewing it. |

I found the first ep pretty boring. Isn't this the episode that's supposed to get the viewers hooked?! The characters weren't that interesting and the plot/pacing was all over the place. I might give it a couple more eps before dropping...:\ |

I was getting into the OP until she started singing... Adorable as expected. Lol'd at Shion giving Nezumi the sweater. Quite a bit different from the manga chapters I've read so far which is not a bad thing, but I'm worried about this fitting into 11 episodes. |

I seem to be one of the few who really enjoyed this series. The futuristic back drop isn't the type usually seen in anime aren't very mainstream. The dialogue was very well planned, especially with Shion and Nezumi's conversation had a lot of implied meanings to different interpretive themes, which was quite refreshing to see it keeping true to the original work. The musical score isn't the best, (if not very absence). Despite a slow start i'm drawn into their world. ![]() |

Interesting beginning... NO.6 seems to be an intriguing world and I'm looking forward to finding out more about it. Also looking forward forward to the plot kicking in a bit more so I don't have to read more debating about if this is a shounen-ai or not (though I'm sure I will still see plenty). Anyway, this is a bit too slippery of a first impression to really get a feel of what the show will be like; since it mainly focuses on developing the setting, and the meeting of the two main characters which is doubtless the catalyst for the rest of the story... but this show has peaked my attention. Laugh and the world laughs with you. Weep and you weep alone. |

I never thought the MAL community would be so judgmental.. Everyone seems to notice how one non-stereotypical scene is, and bash the entire episode in general. Some people, really. I dread for those who have grown up only to see what it portrayed as ''homophobic'' and ''gay'' and take it negatively, especially in an anime. Honestly. Regardless, i have really have high hopes for this series and hope to see some great expansion in the story and it continues. Looking forward to the next! |

I think this anime is pretty good. It looks like it might be shonen-ai but I'm not complaining about it. |

The show did give off awkward vibes indeed, the main character seems pretty awkward to me just because he told the guy he looked like a injured girl and on top of that he said he didn't know his true meaning for helping him. That's enough to tell me oh gawd, we will find out the truth later. Honestly he seems like a strange individual to me o.o |

I heard the romance would be between Shion and that girl...what's her name...not a spoiler though, I'm not sure myself. And I'm personally against it. Somehow I don't really like that girl..wonder why..? -.- And about Shion and Nezumi's relationship, I found it very interesting. It's certainly not Yaoi, but probably implied shounen-ai like Saiyuki? The manga's still on-going so don't assume too much. Some of you said that this episode's slow-paced? For me it's normal, dunno. For those who wanna drop it, just drop it. Don't give too much negative opinion or some people would be mad. xD AzylSagara said: I seem to be one of the few who really enjoyed this series.

There's only a few kind of relations that boys/men can have with other boys/men without being called yaoi/gay. |
