| Yea... the puzzles in this anime are very childish... @.@ Oh well. I still like the opening. :3 |
| I am loving this show so far. I'm surprised more people aren't watching it. It's actually really good. Then again it comes down to personal opinions. I myself am a fan of doing puzzles and such, which is why I probably love this more than the next person. Pretty good episode. <33 |
 |
| Didn't really love it. It was just okay. |
     |
| I found myself asleep by the end of epise just like last week. protip: dont watch when tired. Anyway, i guess it was okay. Nothing special, but puzzle concept is pretty interesting. |

| Kind of a basic solution... The moment he said he sealed the movements, only choice to "solve" it would be to push himself out. There was another choice for survival, but it wouldn't solve it. They had a overlay of where the bus would fall, it wouldnt crush the entire area.. pretty disappointed... hes meant to be a puzzle master, and I could even figure it out? I was hoping it would be a mentally stimulating show, but I guess not.. |

| Yes, it's childish. However, very entertaining. The only thing that really annoys me is the "OH I HAVE SOLVED IT HURR DURR I HAZ POWAHZ IN MY EYEZ!". Just avoid the stupid monologue, please! kirby_422 said: Kind of a basic solution... The moment he said he sealed the movements, only choice to "solve" it would be to push himself out.

I was hoping it would be a mentally stimulating show, but I guess not.. I thought exactly the same; when I saw the diagram, and where the bus was supposed to fall. I immediately thought of putting the car just in a place where they could be safe. Nevertheless, we could say that there wasn't enough time for putting the car in that position with just a minute left, and that's why he took the option we saw. This is in reference to the end of the puzzle, where they were trapped in the car just in front of the exit; if you are talking about the red haired faggot... Yes, he sucks, I completely agree with you, lol. |

| lol this anime has just become incredibly predictable. just by the last scene i know who the villain is and the various motivations. as for the puzzle, it is really nothing sophisticated. there is an I-phone app that has that very same puzzle. this whole episode was merely a setup for the plot as well as to get him to take up his tittle or whatever. if you already knew what that puzzle is it was nothing more than a basic mental exercise. |
| "THIS FUCKING KID SOLVED MY EASY AS SHIT PUZZLE; I'LL JUST KILL THEM ALL!" "Not on my watch! I'll break the rules and save us all!" I would like to like this, but UHGFHDJG. |
| So epic. Toketa... and he solved it when it's unsolvable. I got excited and rated this 10 now. |

 |
| Every five seconds they yell 'puzzle!' This show is entertaining so far (the puzzles are nothing special, but oh well). The white haired enemy is probably the same childhood friend of Kaito's memories. |
 |
| I saw someone write a review for this show(which is weird after only 2 episodes),anyway I agree with one point this person made,they need to show in detail how the main character(forgot his name) solves these puzzles. But for now the show is just ok. |
 |
| Meh I like puzzles and the sort, but I cant really take this show seriously at all. Characters too cliched, very predictable plot, etc etc x.x *drops* |
| I wonder how long in till a Angry Birds like puzzle appears. |
| I used to believe the brain was the most important organ in the body. Then I realized - - Look what's telling me that. <img src="http://myanimelist.net/signature/SpykeRoseRed.png" /> |
| I'd enjoy this series more if the main character wasn't so annoying. The rival's even more annoying. Put them together, as they did with this episode, and oh man... I agree with the plot predictability. I can deal with that, but these characters are grating to the point where I don't know how much more I can take. Hopefully it'll get better. |
 |
| They could have at least shown us the answers for the puzzles on the stairs. One major fault of this series is that they keep talking and talking about puzzles but don't spend any time solving them, it's suddenly just done, not different than if the characters have used magic, leaving the viewers in the dark. ArcticMech said: I'd enjoy this series more if the main character wasn't so annoying. The rival's even more annoying. Totally agree. Judging by the preview for the 3rd episode, the "Edison" boy is going to be obnoxious as well. |
SpykeRoseRed said: I wonder how long in till a Angry Birds like puzzle appears. Not too long I bet!! Also when I heard the word "contract" I knew Kaito's future will be f'ed up... |
 Repeat forever. Promise forever That you'll keep me in your heart. |
| I hate how they never show the actual solutions to the puzzles!! I didn't notice in the first episode, but the art to this show is really bad. This got pretty ridiculous, and I normally love ridiculousness, but the way the characters act is just RIDICULOUS, like why on earth did that guy get so mad and suddenly try to kill them during the puzzle?? Plus the principle and his little lackey kid are just creepy and unnatural (probably not the right word I'm thinking of). Then we have the fact that we basically know now the whole plot, wooo exciting final showdown between two childhood friends who were reunited, but are now enemies, how original. Even with all that, it keeps my attention so far. OK episode, hope it picks up. |
 |
| Just watched this show. The story seems decent, the graphic is so-so, the character design looks like crap. >_> |
| Disappointed...:[ |
O_O |
| Byakuran appeared xD |
 |
| I like the previous episode more. Now that Kaito has obtained the Orpheus something, it'll be like... like... some sort of weapon or gadget that 'one has to rely on this item in every dangerous situation' ,, mehhh And the puzzles in the show aren't that 'difficult' as many characters claimed them to be so. And I don't like how the show didn't show how the puzzles were solved ! They just avoided the direct screenshot. IMO, the show would be more interesting if... - the level of puzzle is increased - the show shows the direct and entire shot of how it is solved. ( not like, 'I solved it' then solve, camera pans away, solve, pans away and done. ) As I think the essence of the puzzle-solving anime is that the audience would get to see and observe character's every move ( at least, almost every move is just fine ). - the plot is less predictable, more twisted and complicated. Wait, could it be that this anime is for children?? If so, then I can't complain a thing since this isn't made for me. That's it PS This anime gave me Yugioh's vibes |

cleeezzz said:hey guise, i heard its really hard to solve puzzles when you can do illegal moves. lets just attach a drill on the front of the car and drill through all the obstacles I AM KAITO, PRO PUZZLER, EVEN IF I CHEAT, ITS CONSIDERED SOLVED. even better, smash the cars against the wall and throw them out the grid, rush hour real hard bro |

| This show is hilariously bad for the first two episodes. Between the generic coolness of the male lead and Galileo, the simplicity of the puzzles, and everyone takes this so seriously. I mean did Damon really need the red glowing eye to figure out that "solution." Then the pathetic attempt at a generic shounen plot. I'm just waiting for Yugi Moto to show up and ask them to solve the millenium puzzle. |
 |
| haha, i have the exact same puzzle as this on my i-phone so yeah nothing special as of yet, but we are only 2 episodes in, found this more entertaining than the first one at least which is promising. |
| Anyone else hate that red haired faggot? I really hope he gets "better" as the show goes on, considering how he's listed as a main character (god only knows why). As for the episode, the main character (can't remember his name, but he's the one with the red eye and arm band) seems a bit to reliant on his new found power. Earlier he was able to solve everything on his own, but now he relies on his power to solve a simple puzzle (like others have been posting about in this topic). Anyways, I'll continue watching, but if something good doesn't happen soon, like the red haired faggot dying, I'll probably end up dropping this. |

| Miyano Mamoru and Fukuyama Jun spotted! I'm sold. Itoukaiji said: I'm just waiting for Yugi Moto to show up and ask them to solve the millenium puzzle. ^ |
| Pretty lovely development I must say, some new characters and more puzzles! Let's see what's next! |
 |
| that red haired Galileo Galilei dude pissed me off. it was a little dumb that the giver just gave no solution when he solved it, like...? that white haired guy at the end... literally what has my life become if i just watch it for the mysterious characters? maybe it's not my fault, the plot nor the puzzles are interesting so even something as simple as introducing a new character gets me more interested. can't they at least narrate him brainstorming how to solve it? like in his mind, he could be like: "so we're unable to move past this point due to the red car's motion being paused and there's a bus ready to fall in _____ seconds. however, perhaps the giver did not pause the other car movements. *experimentation* i was right, if i can't move this car, i'll move the other cars and push them into mine to get out of the way. now how can i do that? *blip bloop bleep* swipeu, swipeu, DABBURU SWIPEU CANDY CRUSH ATTACK!" seriously, there could have been a better way than treating his arm bracelet as a deus ex machina solve-all multipurpose. nonoha was right when she said that they were saved again by the armlet, fuck outta here with both kaito and that walmart goro akechi claiming that "it was all his skill." where tf is the skill, demonstrate it, show it, i don't want to hear that it's magically solved with the camera panning off. k, don't kill me. i only wanted to give my two cents. edit: GG dude is a main character?! |
