| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- First episode of a promising looking series. Typical apathetic main character who feels there is no meaning to any actions taken upon this world when suddenly everything changes for him. Not to mention he has a trusty friend, strange superpowers, and a mysterious half-naked chick with unknown powers as well. All an anime needs in my opinion. :D |

| I just rewatched this (whole series) a few days ago, and it's not as good as I seem to remember it. >.< Started it well but went downhill, IMO. |
| That wasn't too bad for a first episode. The OP is kinda catchy. :D |

| yes it is. but christ what the hell did she do to the alien?!! |
  |
| This left the worst possible impression on me. Guy discovers random naked girl who doesn't speak japanese, turns into freak, beats up bug. w/e, i'm gonna watch it anyway. |
| That was nice. Animation was pretty good and the story is promising. |

| I think this wasn't too impressing, the usual stuff actually. =D And again, we have a Lucy-type character (is it possible to dislike her already? Because I do.) and the loser male who turns into a Hulk-like thing. And - wow! Flashbacks of the 1st episode IN the 1st episode! Did anyone else feel sorry for the alien? ó_ò |

| Why are there never naked guys falling from the sky |
 |
| Well... naked guy falling from sky reminds me of Occult Academy lol |
 |
| This is what I think of the first episode: Apparently rampaging bugs that are the size of a house go unnoticed by the government. No one seem to see the big ass light that shoot up when the egg thing she was in landed. No one noticed the actual egg flying around and flying next to the road other then them. Bugs don't know how to fight for shit. She could instantly understand Japanese and speak it after just hearing him scream a few times Also Apparently normal humans emerge out of flying glowing eggs and that is normal. |

| this anime is kinda good so far, i like the op, it reminds me of the school days one hikari reminds me a lot of lucy from elfen lied, with the childlike personality but suddenly become a crazy killer the mc turning into whatever that was.. i found that sort' ve dumb. you guys know sonic the hedgehog? yeah, he looks like his red and black friend 0.0 i felt a bit bad for the bug >.< the minute he fell over the cliff to hikari i was like "nope he's fucked bye" overall, i do like the anime, the animation is really amazing, especially for something that came out so long ago! i look forward to later episodes =^.^= |
| well-.... that happened. i thought this'd be some slice-of-life similar to Ah! My goddess because of what i'd read in the synopsis and stuff, but what the hell- the guy turns into a monster and i'm like; well, that was not what i expected.... well, here's to spending some more attention to this anime than i originally thought.. |
 I like to comment Episodes as i Watch them. |
| You can really see that this is made by Gainax! Pretty nice start in general, looking forward to see what's next! |
 |
| This show reminds me of Please Teacher and To-Love Ru. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Not really impressive, but it was also mainly set -up so far. Hope the next episode will be more interesting. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Shaft, Gainax, and a solid first episode, count me the fuck in lol |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| Hmmm nice, mysterious first episode, unknown powers and monsters, I wonder who is the girls and why there are monsters in this world.... |

I always see you commenting on the airing series, I wasn't expecting to find you here too. would you recommend this for someone that fucking loved Elfen Lied? |
 |
abyss_will said: Yes, but don't expect the same quality, it's like an alternative Elfen Lied but a weaker one, still pretty good thoughI always see you commenting on the airing series, I wasn't expecting to find you here too. would you recommend this for someone that fucking loved Elfen Lied? |
