I liked the OP song.

But... the anime was just awful... I almost didn't even finish the whole episode. Dropped.

Loved the OP! Set-up ans storyline are interesting enough too, though have to agree that I haven't watched a show with this level of art/animation in the while... ^^;

The animation is kinda poor for todays standards.

OP's alright.
So we have Defense Agency Border vs Neighbors from across the Gate.
The bullies were funny. The animation though is something to laugh at.

I was expecting Mikumo to be a normal student and Yuuma to be the one introducing Mikumo to Border.
I knew Mikumo would be a newbie, but I didn't expect Yuuma to be a Neighbor.
Yuuma is the reason why I'll keep going.
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

I really don't know what people hate about this show so much that it deserves it's 6.66 current score. That said, the poor overall animation and the weird pauses definitely bothered me, a bit. In certain scenes, they showed the wrong still shot angle. That's all, really. The OP and soundtracks are good, not memorable yet, but fitting.

This is definitely a keeper for me. Can't wait for the show to get to the real good part according to the manga readers.

I HATE HIS EYES =.= SERIOUSLY! A LOT! MC is in Border but obviously sucks. They mention squads but is MC in one? Does he ever report for duty, or just go to school? Why is he in Border before graduating from school? I would understand him being in the organization as a minor if he were a prodigy, but we have no explanation yet. Overall ... the future doesn't look bright and I hate this little albino boy.


Ofcourse everything isn't explained in the first episode geez, take it easy.

The first episode was good but the animation was a fucking slide show.
Even tho I love World Trigger but Madhouse, Bones, Production I.G, Gainax or Sunrise should have took over this show.
BTW The animation gets better in 48 episodes later and Its becoming one of my favorites manga and anime series TBH

I'd even be fine with A-1 Pictures.

But welp, this is Toei so chances of a re-make by another studio are 0%

The little white hair brat annoys me. Nevermind the fact that he has a twisted sense of morals (thinking someone deserve death just cuz they tried to bully you? really?), since they're probably gonna give him some kind of Freudian excuse or something, what annoys me about him is how he acts all cocky just cuz he has special powers.

Four eyes seems like a decent enough MC at least, I suppose. He may be a fool to recklessly risk his own neck for other people but at least his heart in the right place and he's decent enough guy. As long as he's not utterly useless for too long, I can roll with that.

Okay episode. It's Toei, so I had low expectations.
If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have).

So he's a Neighbor and Four-Eyes is a Border agent despite his appearance. The art and animation was just so-so but might as well give it a go.

To be frank, this was an un-interesting episode. Animation Quality and Artstyle are just about mediocre and I don't really feel anything from the Characters just yet.

Op was pretty cool though, I've to say.

Banger opening.

Not the biggest fan of Toei adaptations, even tho they got their good points and charm. This first episode was ok, not immediately hooked, but seems promising and I was expecting a slow burner anyway.

Ok episode. Don't feel strongly about it either way.

White hair kid has a dry humor that I'm liking though.

the whole episode felt awkward, the pauses in between two people having a conversation and the VA choices for the bullies sounded like they picked up random people off the streets instead of using professional VAs. I’ll probably continue it though seeing as it might get better.

It was an ok introduction but everything felt too slow like a character speaking followed by a weird 2 seconds of silence until it changes to another character. It is Toei after all so I can only hope that it gets better.

So the twist is that Kuga is a neighbor, interesting. I like him, his face is funny, but I'm not a fan of Osamu. Being too righteous is annoying and also bad.

Animation was nothing too "woah" but good enough to watch. Story and plot so far have not captured me and the main character feels somewhat boring.
