THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Ok so like, if the first ep of a series can tell how good a series will be, then this series will kick so much ass. The ED is pretty awesome too. |

Looks like it'll be a good one. It reminds me a lot of Ghost Hunt. |

Love the art style and animation. Lots of whats and "wth's" in this first episode. Those translator notes in the end are crazy, but the "fetish" is damn funny. It's all good. |

1st episode was great, it looks like this series is going to be pretty interesting, and indeed the great selection of voice actors wins^^, |

I didn't think it sucked, but I wasn't as swept away with it as I was hoping to be. That said, it's still one of the better new shows I've watched so far, and I like the characters well enough. I think it has a fair bit of potential to tap into. |

Yay, Rie Kugimiya~ It was okay, it's pretty interesting and has potential I think. Let's see what the next episodes will be like. |

Was expecting more out of it, but at the same time, I'm not disappointed... just hoping it'll improve to the level I was hoping it would be. Characters, art, and what I've heard of the sound are all wins, so we'll see how the plot goes ^^ |

Disappointing - it feels like Ghost Hunt, only not good. And I hate the President already. Think I may end up dropping this one. |

Maybe I was expecting too much, but I'm actually a little disappointed in the first episode. I won't drop it by any means, I just hope the next few episodes are, well, better. |

1st ep wasn't really good nor bad. But it reminded me on D.Gray Man, that I have droped, if it continues to be like that, I'll drop it, too ;P |

First a Zombie Loan, now a Rental Magica... I wonder if this will be decent. So far the first episode was not bad, but I can't say it was promising either... seems to be a common trait for the new fall shows. I'll give it a few episodes to convince me. |

I thought it was supposed to be a light novel, not an RPG. If this ends up being a monster of the week deal, I'm cutting it. Otherwise, though, I'm curious. I'll give it a couple more episodes. |
