| lol this anime is pretty bad ass and the "secret components" in the safe ROFL. The ED song is pretty good too. |
| Interesting so far, I hope it gets even better. |
 |
| Cant wait for more <3 |
| I had high hopes, and they were met. Reminds me a bit of Zettai Karen Children: The Unlimited - Hyoubu Kyousuke, especially because of the endings ong by Wataru Hatano (which is absolutely awesome). My current favourite from the minimum holders is Ratio, but we haven't had a lot of chances to see Nice's power yet. |
................................................................................. |
| This is good so far. Funny to see what was inside that safe lol. Can't wait for the next episode. |
 |
| Nice first episode, I really like the visuals and the color palette. This animation studio did better with the character designs than I think Brains Base did with Blood Lad. The OP and ED were nice too. Although it doesn't seem to be too special at the moment (as it reminds lots of people of different anime) but it was still a pretty fun introductory episode. |
| This is more like BAKAtora The cast is tiresome, consisting of a bunch of braindead bishis who only Think they are cool, and the case was extremely stupid, and yet they were trying to establish some serious mood by hinting at a bloody overall plot. I think I will drop this right now. Too many good anime are coming out right now to waste my time on this. |

extatix said: Drrr!! meets Darker than Black. Sort of. Haha, Just said the same to a friend. |
| pretty good for a first episode~ lol at the names of some of the characters though (like birthday...) the art is decent, very colorful. I like the choice of seiyuus too :D I hope it gets better. this may become a fav |
( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ |
| More like a CodeBreaker and Durarara... But that Old man had a great death, F-ing all those College chicks and storing videos/porn in that safe lol, that old Nanny going to get that son though lol |
 |
It's not a game to anime adaptation, though... there's going to be a game for it, but it's not adapted from anything. Oooo... my mistake, lol. Nonetheless, the same still applies. :p |
Kannei said: Durarara + K mix huh well its okay Haha, those are the two exact titles I thought of as well. Enjoyed the first episode. Seems like this show is going to be a lot of fun, at the very least! |
    |
| Great start, both OP and ED is awesome. Lol, Nice withdrawing 430 yen in the bank XD Hajime is cute :3 Whoa, that bed scenes o_o I like when two Minimum Holder are fighting and the surroundings changed. Nice have a nice minimum, "Can you see sound?" So the two job is because of the safe. What's inside the safe, lol WTF This show is amusing, I really like it. Can't wait for next episode. |
| Awesome!!!! I can't to learn more about the characters and Minimal Holder. |
| Reminds me a bit of Get Backers. I liked it, thought it was fun. Will watch. |
| Ryota Ohsaka : ✓ Kamiyan: ✓ Jun Fukuyama: ✓ Nakamura Yuuichi: ✓ Don't get what Nice's power is. It was not bad, I think I'll keep watching it. |
| It was predictable. The whole scene with the evil guy telling them they were comrades because they all have superpowers just to being told by the good guys they're not, was so cliché I'm a little disappointed on this. I'll keep watching in hopes it gets better, I love the seiyuu cast already, so that's a plus. Let's see if the story keeps up. |

So far my favorite anime of the season. It gave me a bit of a DRRR!! feel, and I liked it so it should be a good (however long this anime is) weeks. |
| just finished watching the 1080p version. Awesome ! i love the art style and the vibrant colors mixed with soem black and white. Op and Ed are both great in my opinion. it reminds me of many anime at once . |

| This show is so lifeless. The characters are still as shallow as they were are at the beginning even after talking so much, more defined by their gimmicks than anything else. The action is nothing to speak of animation-wise and the postprocession used for them makes me want to scream. I'm all for creative visuals but that just makes me want to gouge my eyes out. The way how the cases got solved doesn't fill me with hope either for the upcoming episodes. Please, just go away, Seiji Kishi, now even the original shows you're in charge of feel like game adaptions with how little flow the transitions between scenes possess. And whoever came up with the dialogue needs to get fired. There's been plenty of terrible shows airing already this season but I might just rank this show even below the incestous little sister chastity belt anime this season with how badly executed this episode was (at least I got some cheap laughs out of the latter's ED) which is a damn shame since the producers could have done a lot with that premise especially since it's an original anime with no preexisting source material. |

| I wasn't expecting much from this but it was really enjoyable :D Hope it stays as good and won't go down >< |
| DAT treasure XD |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| The colours on screen when the holders use their powers... actually painful to look at. |
 |
| Looks Very awesome. May be one of my favorite winter animes. But I have to see where this is heading and what the future episodes will be... |
| "As if that wasn't bad enough!" |
| First episode of Hamatora was interesting, I like the concept with superpower, cool protagonist, and the draw style sure is fine. The animation was good, also the action-scene was really nice Well an old man who pays for having girls in the bed, it happens often in manga but I don't really like something like that. His biggest treasure, yes please don't show them to his son, who knows what he would do. All in all, interesting first episode, let's see what happens in the next episodes. |
Eudaimonia said: I agree with you for the most part but this is just the first episode. It was interesting enough for me to continue watching. I like the visuals expect when they use their Minimum powers. I'm not expecting much but maybe it will surprise me.This show is so lifeless.

jman90 said: I enjoyed the first episode. Colours were bright/vibrant and overall it had some pretty good action. I'm hoping that there will be some actual direction or development with this series though rather than an episodic series or random arcs thrown together. At least we got that serial killer subplot o/... There was one thing i couldnt let go and that was: Bank intern chick just happens to have habit to write down any numbers(and letters) she hears. Even when she is sleeping with older rich guys. I can only imagine how much post it notes she needs every day:D |
| That was an enjoyable first episode, I really like the art style of this show with its colors, although I could see it how it could become irritating to the eyes for some. And the action was pretty awesome as well, I hope they this show talks more about the lore of Minimum Holders, that would be pretty interesting to find more about. |
 |
| It wasn't bad. The setting and plot definitely have potential and the OST is great. |
| I wasn't good but it wasn't bad either, I will watch it for a few more weeks then I will see to early to tell with this one |
| By the end I was sort of into it. Still not a good introduction to what's going on in this universe. |
 |
| So let me guess this is a more vivid Darker than black like anime? skipping it |
| wow some ppl are overreacting here. same ppl have a mean score on their completed list that suggests that they dont really like anime.....or are masochists. |
| Not a bad start, The animation and art looked unique in a sort of way. Minimum Holders with supernatural abilities and some sort of detective show... Looks like a promising anime. Music wise, pretty great. Action wise, astounding. Can't wait to see more of this. |
| I'm glad I wasn't the only one who felt a Durarara's vibe with this anime. For the first episode it was really good, I loved the fights scenes! |
| O importante não é o que fazemos de nós, mas o que nós fazemos daquilo que fazem de nós |
| Ugh, the background change when they use their minimum powers just hurts my eyes... The only character that interested me was that bank teller, but then.... Hopefully it gets btr than some bland mystery. |
 |
| The random cuts are pretty annoying and contributed absolutely nothing. Other than that it was pretty enjoyable. I'll be cautious not to expect too much, especially since this is Kishi Seiji. niaxato said: Reminds me a bit of Get Backers. Ayup. |
DStev said: Rynia said: My favourite series so far this season. Wasn't expecting to like it this much. Same here, here's hoping the new series get progressively better. Yeah seems like it will be a decent watch |
| Urban environment like Durarara, color palette of Gatchaman Crowds, and supernatural powers? I am going to enjoy this show. |
 |
| Wow, Murasaki in red looks like Vash the Stampede. This series seems better than the others so far at least. |
| it was a bit boring imo... (too predictable) I'll give it one or two more episodes, if I doesn't get more entertaining I'll just drop it |
- I only draw freestyle! - |
| Damn poor Ayase becomes a prostitute because she didn't win in Oreimo :(. |
| damn sleeping around with college girls.. |
 |
| Philosophical talk about an ATM :P Well she's stubborn the bank is getting robbed :x So Minimum is a power that is activated when something is done. The bad guy had super strength when he blew a bubble while Birthday had electricity power then he shocked himself with a tazer. Well that dude's dad was a player and payed well :P What what what!!!! That maid's offer 0_0 nightmares *-* LAWL all that over a dirty mag collection. Pretty cool, it feels like Persona 4 except they have powers instead of their cards and they can use them in the real world. |
| I love the comedy.. that rich old dude must've died from herpes... he fucking deserved it.. awesome 1st episode but man.. my eyes hurt whenever theres a fight scene... those lights, those colors... they should change that.. though I think that wouldn't happen |
 |
| The best thing about not doing any prior research to the show (CR didn't have a PV for this show) is that the CV cast comes as a surprise, and in this case, a delightful surprise. And yes, it does remind me a lot of DRRR and K, but more so K because of the supernatural powers and the bar. I love the colour palette too~! |
| Tumblr: Gigglepud My one rec for anyone who likes good storytelling: Play Zero Escape/Ai the Somnium Files |
| I like the art, the characters and the settings, reminds me of K.. i dont find the comedy funny though and im not sure about the story,. still looking forward to it.. |
