NEURO IS FINALLY OUT!!!!!!!!

It's been quite a while since I read the first chapters, but if I remember correctly the manga-ka didn't start with a case first, then introduce the characters, did s/he?

Anyways, it was amazing, I loved it even though I watched it RAW and understood only bits and pieces.
Uber creepy and flat out weird like I was expecting.

The music is fantastic, and so are the art and animation. Can't wait for subs/more eps!

Humor didn't really do much for me. The whole case solving was a bit too deus ex machina for me as well.

Not really my type

Just got done watching. Episode was very interesting. Neuro is creepy... yet somewhat cool. The voice acting in it was quite good. Looking forward to the next episode.

I loved the first episode. It was the most enjoyable start of the series I've picked up so far. I love the interaction between Neuro and Yako. That alone is reason enough to keep me watching. I'm looking forward to seeing how it goes.

hahaha it was so freaking funny. The op song got my attention on the very first second. And omg everytime your suposed to be focused on another character whos talking, if Neuro is in the back ground he always has this crazy Psycho face, when i first noticed i loled sooo hard.
Also when there's that scream in the restaurant you can hear the DUN DUN DUUUN! dramatic sound XD totally loved it!

Haha, this is kinda fun to watch. I like the humor, if they cut back a little on the overly dramatic culprits, this could turn out really well. :D

I liked it. I don't love it ...not yet. However, I think the characters will grow on me. The over dramatic villain... well he was a villain; so I suppose he had to be over the top. Almost all villains are; especially if they are mad. Besides which, I doubt any future bad guys/girls will ever be as bipolar as Neruo.

I decided to start watching this. The reason my FAL dropped so badly (I picked this over Rental Magica! *sobs*). I enjoyed the first episode though, sad that this has fallen through the cracks of being an unnoticed anime. Neuro is awesome. I love that expression where his eyes are like... just white with a dot. :P

Pretty good first episode if you ask me, especially the ending the latter half with Neuro. He owned that cooking monster like a boss. Looking forward to more especially regarding Yako Katsuragi and her past.

OP... It's surprisingly catchy
Hmm.. it's a bit different from manga..
I don't see the (REAL) first case or her father's murder case.... Oh well~
Still, I'm hoping for this not become really differ from the manga

Yeah it's quite different start from the manga.. I don't know about the rest of the episodes
In manga Yako met Neuro and solved the first case (In a family restaurant)
Then her father's murder case
Then................ This one the chef & drug case (So, Sasazuka already met Yako & Neuro before)

"The culprit is you." *points* Haha I was so looking forward to that.

Good first episode. Hopefully the next case would be more complex.

For me too. This is my second time trying to get past the first episode, and I still feel the same way as I did the first time. Neuro just come in and solve the case with magic. Hopefully it only gets better from here, I took notice of this anime from back when I just started watching anime regularly, but been putting it off till like 2-3 years ago, I just want this to turn out to be good.
