This ep was amazing - nice action, and lots of blood.

Actually, if I'm not mistaken he's the one who gave away the location of Kuro(19:50 or so), you're looking into it too much :P

Of all the starts, this one was a little weird for me. At first I couldn't really get into it, but it turned itself around and was pretty good. A little predictable, but fun. I'll probably stick this out and see how this goes.

Really nice, i took me a while that most of the episode was a flash back and he had already lived for hundreds of years at the start of the series. Is this an post-apolyptic anime? I'm getting more than enough from Casshern, i hope this is jsut normal.

This is going to be VERY post-apocalyptic in the same kind of mood from Casshern Sins....
And no, he didn't live for a few hundred years, he lived for thousands of years, long enough to witness the post-apocalyptic world after a second ice age.

In the manga, everything is messed up so the reader is confused because fo all the time jumps and flashbacks.

pretty cool. so shes jsut immortal....not like a vamp or something? although she was drinking blood hehe. if she is a vamp, its a rather odd one.

Ya the fight scenes are really amazing. I love the slow mo and camera panning parts.

I have no idea how I missed that. I'mm go watch this again.

Wow. The animation is quite something. Lovely characters, great fights, blood, romance...Very impressing first episode

That arrow sequence was the best *nod*

Quite possibly the single worst episodes in anime I have ever seen. Honestly, did a child direct this?
No transitions, no flow, no fitting dialogue, no impact, and no intelligence.

The animation was great, the opening felt misplaced now, but if the show evolves into Yoshitsune(I refuse to call him Kurou) living in the contemporary era it'll fit.

Another retelling of Minamoto no Yoshitsune's legend, but it seems to pick up only after he's defeated, and Musashibo Benkei doesn't follow him in his immortality I guess.

I'm gonna hit the manga later.

It's not just you. I don't know how many times I had to raise the volume.

Anyway the first episode was very interesting and I am looking forward to more.

Wow, I'm impressed, this first episode was great imo. Nice action scenes, art, music. (OP was bad imo)
It's gotten me interested in the manga.

I liked the opening, but it did feel a bit out of place.
Though, it is now Madhouse signature to have those kind of openings.

The animation of the fights were insane.

Story is developing.

I will keep my eye on this one <3

Well,the first episode really stirred me up ^^
Blood scenes were plenty and the art is nice too.I'll def watch the next episode.

This was really fun to watch. The action and camera angles were great, and the animation quality was high. Only two things to complain about:Same here. The second thing was the camera angle when Kurou jumped off the cliff at the beginning: I think it should have tilted over the cliff and followed him down for a sec. But that's just my preference.

Off to hunt for episode 2.

Great first episode so far. Madhouse Studios sure knows how to make great anime series this season. I hope this series continues to do well, because the plot setting is very interesting.

Considering Blade of the Immortal is my all time favorite manga this is right up my alley! Beautiful animation and action sequences and the promise of an engaging tale; yeah I'm happy so far.

No idea what the plot is all about given that the development in this episode is just all over the place. One minute they just met, and the next have em going at it inside a tree. Well this is only the first episode so maybe they saved the actual development at a later time. Action wise, I am definitely loving the red blood :-)

Awesome. Love the fight scenes.

The graphics were nice. Somehow, it reminds me of Shigurui in this area but more colorful and textured. Seems like it's Madhouse style this season, eg. Mouryou no Hako.

Yeah, I was reminded of Shigurui right away too. Glad to see someone else made that parallel as well.


+ Casshern Sins =]
