| the animation is amazing -w- |

 |
| This one looks promising. I really enjoyed the first episode. |

KingCez said: I don't deny the possibility that he might have traveled though time, but even if he did, it would be traveled forward in time. Not sure if it was in this episode or episode 2, Red mentioned that according to his understanding, Earth is covered in ice. Then Amy said that Earth was covered in ice, now the ice age has passed, Earth is covered with water.looks great. interested. so he traveled back in time However, my guess is that he is still on the same timeline. Earth has just changed without Red knowing. And he can't contact his people for whatever reason. |

| Looks like they put a lot of money into this one. I'm not usually a fan of mech anime, but I'm willing to give this one a shot because the action is better than most and, of course, because Urobuchi hasn't disappointed me yet. |

| Wow the battle scene in the beginning was intense! So much was going on that I had no clue where to look...I had to watch it again just so I made sure I read the subtitles AND watched what was happening. Those flower things were pretty crazy. And all those laser beams. This definitely was an interesting start, I love how Red kept wondering with Chamber whether or not they were "primitive" or "savage"-like. Also, it must have been somewhat breathtaking to see the ocean for the first time (I assume he has not seen an ocean before from where he came from). The animation is beautiful as well. Definitely looking forward to upcoming episode ^^ |
| It looks promising, but in my opinion that was a kind of rushed introduction. Hopefully we'll get more info about, I don't know... everything?? |
| One episode in and there's already a massacre of Urobutcher proportions! :P Kidding aside, this was a great beginning to the show. The techno-babble was pretty heavy during the battle, but it was still amazingly epic. I like the details put into the show, like the language barriers. The characters all have unique personalities, and no one really falls into over-used tropes. Animation-wise, the show is a fairly competent Production I.G. work. I'm pretty much used to CGI mecha now, so that wasn't really a problem. Hopefully the quality can maintain course for the show's entirety. Looking forward to next week! |
| YAWNED throughout the whole battle scene. I never really understood what's so special about mecha's, what's so fun about watching robots shooting lasers at each other? |
| I was actually pleasantly surprised by this episode. Definitely one of the better anime's this season. |
| nice i like this series.. :) |
 |
| 1st episode was good and art is outstanding. |
 |
| this is soo good. Will definitely watching it Damn, I've picked up 7 series already for this season. So many interesting series this season |
Dizzee said: YAWNED throughout the whole battle scene. I never really understood what's so special about mecha's, what's so fun about watching robots shooting lasers at each other? Lasers are good, generally. This battle, however, was pretty underwhelming. So I wouldn't really take it as an indication of all mecha battles, especially considering that there's far more than just beam spam if you look further into the genre. |
| I love it already. |
| awesomeness really like the artwork man big battle then to a chase |
 |

| Reminded me of eureka seven, and the fact its made by Urobuchi its a must see! Psycho-pass, and fate/zero.. this should turn out to be good! |
 |
| Amazing 1st episode. It looks like Production IG and Urobuchi have done it again. BTW at the end, the world kinda looked like the apocalyptic world of Blue Submarine no. 6. Anyways I'm pretty excited and looking forward to this since Urobuchi and Production IG are behind it. ALso superb music. |
| epic shit. but only 12eps... |
| an ok 1st episode, only thing why the hell wouldnt you kick and scream if your being kidnap? weird anime logic. |
| So this is Uro's take on Planets of the Apes just as Psycho Pass was a take on Minority Report. |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| Absolute eye candy this one is. The art was beautiful, as was the character designs. High expectations for this one. Great Chihara Minori song at the end, which I presume is the OP. Very good stuf. 5/5 Sent with Mal Updater |
| The artwork is simply astounding. Great cliffhanger at the end, definitely watching the next episode ^-^ |
| Good start. Didn't dislike any character and the setting of this series seems good. Should be promising. My fav til now is Chamber. He's voiced by Sugita right? Love his/its interactions with Ledo :) Lol'd at how Ledo spanked Amy's ass and how Chamber translated it XDXDXD |

| I really liked it! The first half of the episode bored me a bit but when he lands on Earth and comes into contact with everyone else it was fun/interesting. The colors were very pleasant to look at and I've come to like the character designs. Animation was good too. This series seems promising! Looking forward to episode 2. ahh and this was gorgeous |
| Hey, that's really interesting! I love the idea of Redo finding this new place and probably adjusting to the life here. I think this will be one of Butch's chiller series because so far he's done Madoka, F/Z, and Psycho-Pass and I'm sure he wants to distinguish himself as an author who can do more than tragedy and thriller. |
| Sugita as an AI of a mech? AOTY In all seriousness, a better premiere than Majestic Prince. The world Butch Gen introduces us to Ledo and the Hideauze, A parasitic like race that humanity fights against. Nothing too original for a sci fi mecha premise but it's all about execution. Seems the majority of the show though is going to be on the planet Ledo crashes at which separates itself already. The kind of tech the planet Ledo crashes on is more grounded future a la Cowboy Bebop while Ledo is the traditional future we think of tech wise. The use of colors is really vibrant and dynamic. They really pop off the screen which I like. A really good start and am looking forward to seeing how the story progresses. |

| Really good first episode, I loved the battle in the firs half. Ah, Amy is so cute. And Red seems to be the strong type character. |

| Good first episode, kinda was a bit rushed at the start and a lot of things went fast, but it was full of action with some blistering animation. This episode was a good start none the less. Then a change of pace that our main hero and his robot his stranded on Earth for 6 months, and is met by skeptical people. When he took the girl as a hostage and the robot tried to translate her, while she was cursing our main hero was hilarious. Great touch there. Then we have this great moment where everyone is pointing at our hero with their guns, but bam Chamber, which I think that is the name of our robot comes to even the score. Good game, humans. Well this episode was good and I hope the rest are good as well, and only 12 episodes? Hmm. |

Don't forget, there will be an OVA with each of the BD boxes with 4 episodes in them so in fact 15 episodes! The colors are so gorgeous, I can't wait to see this on BD! I think this one will be getting imported by me... time to redo my July order again... |
| GREAT episode. Can't wait for the next! |
 |
| Liked alot. |
| Pretty good episode, it's not like in Psycho Pass when after the first episode I already knew it was gonna be awesome, this can turn out a great anime or a mediocre one imo, but since it's Urobuchi I can't help but be optimist about it. |
| Pretty good first episode. I usually struggle getting into Mecha and I feel the first half had way too much information given out, it got pretty boring. 2nd half got a lot better for me though and the art is amazing. Will definitely hang around as it's Gen. In the first 15 minutes 100s of people died, I really shouldn't be surprised. 4/5 |
 |
| The quality is reeeeally nice to see (obviously since it's BD but whatever). I'm really looking forward to this, you can't help but be optimistic that it'll be amazing, especially since Urobutcher is wrote this. I think I like it more than Attack On Titan, but that's only because of preference. |

| So yeeeah, the first half of the episode was bright lights and fighting space vaginas with future technobable. That part of the episode was horrible. We get no sense of the stakes and well mean space vaginas don't make the most compelling enemies when you don't really know what the hell is going on. Second half of the episode was better. The animation was nice without causing seizures. It seemed like fun and it's interesting they're actually on planet earth. Hopefully the series will stay more like this or if it's going back to space battles it'll actually bother to explain things. Overall, a shaky first episode but it seems like it could be really interesting and good futuristic sci-fi anime is hard to come by so we'll see. |
 |
| High for this series, scene are well animated. Red is also interesting as a main character. Nice >.< |

And is it for certain that it's not going to be a 2-cour show? 12 episodes broadcast, just one cour. Plus 3 OVAs. Released in 3 BD boxes with 4 regular episodes each plus 1 OVA for a total of 5 episodes per box released in July, September and October. |
| Generic moeblob shit. When is the anime industry going to advance to rotoscoping like Aku no Hana. sarcasm |
| SO far I am am IN LOVE with this anime ohmygee.. The first half I was a little (lot) disappointed because it wasn't what I thought it would be like at all.. But the second half was just what I wanted! Cute guy, cute girl, advanced space robotics, just a little bit of everything I wanted =] Edit: Also for the people wondering Crunchy Roll has picked this anime up. So if you want to watch sign up for sure!! Or make a new account with premium for a couple weeks, or borrow a friends account. Anything because it is totally worth the 8$ a month. |

| gahhh i loved it... if it continues like this i think this'll be my favorite anime of this season:) Amazing animation^^ |
| As expected of Urobutcher. This series looks fantastic! The ED song sounds cool too. |
 |
| Well that was fun even though this plot was exploated countless times in movies and books. I got good feelings about it but im also scared it won't live up to my expectations. |
