THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Yup, pretty much a comedy series..with prison jokes. The animation quality didn't impress me much although the humor itself is tolerable. I think the style of the show works well so far in terms a parody.

The theme song is kinda catchy I guess..

Ok so what I got from this was "what if prison school had a drunken orgy with a variety of anime's focusing on prison, male only characters, and comedy" but no seriously this was weird #25 was the one who threw me off the most.

so many of these characters look like other anime characters that through out the episode all I could see were those characters now I'm not going to say which one's I saw as which because mine are going to be different from your's that and I don't want other's to see them as other characters I want them to enjoy this without saying can't unsee. but I will say that I saw one of them as a genderbend version of a certain catgirl from an anime that was adapted from a game and came out in spring.

Yeah, no similarities with Prison School at all, unless it's MAL rec "both shows have prisons" tier.

I guess I should have looked at character and promo art before starting this, but I kind of expected a fun prison break/chase kind of thing between the prisoners and guards like in the first half, except kinda more entertaining. This was just terrible, and the characters look like shit lol.

Although there are several things i dislike about this atleast the art is acceptable (unlike kill la kill which was bs) and the humor ain't cringy or downright horrible.

Just going to watch this with a light hearted feeling without thinking much about it

Wacky and fun just as I expected. Pretty good starting episode, Just pure frolic.
The escape was like so convenient, Random air lock between wall trap? So much for the world's greatest prison. XD

Them hair colors in the show. :3

Traps these days get worse and worse. XD
That story of the shackles at the end though, Even the foreshadowing at the end, Not sure if I should take it seriously or not.

sigh,I can't believe I expected something like Prison School. They are not even comparable. I also expected gays but there's nothing..
I'll keep watching it for a while even though it's fated to be dropped. At least that black-haired edgelord seems a little more fun to watch compared to his stereotypical friends; and he likes men too!(lol as if)

I feel obligated to watch just because it's so garish looking and because I tend to derive joy from over-the-top shit. Especially weird looking dudes doing weird things.

I don't know about this though it seems more shit than over-the-top and the jokes wore thin already.

However, pretty sure its going to get old pretty damn quick. :|

Well, i thought the same with Handa-kun at the first episode last season and i ended up enjoying it a lot so im still going to watch this for now.

A fun to watch show, aslong as you dont take it too seriously.
When I saw the characters in the PV I was turned off at first. But now after I´ve seen the first episode I quite like the cast.
I hope it dosnt get repetitive.

So far as I'm concerned the only thing similar between the two are just the fact that the setting is in a prison or facility, nothing more.

I never actually expected this to be like Prison School, for being honest, and even if it was the case which is actually as heavy hectic or very ecchi dose type of show, if it was actually similar I would have disliked it right now (because I am expecting this season to be soft and rather light hearted for my end, rather than heavy and pretty overly sour at my own mouth).

The episode was actually pretty fun, although I do know it might get a bit stale later on but if it stays as entertaining I think I can still enjoy it. The first half was actually pretty thrilling and fun, some even good scenes with fluid animation, the second half seems more light hearted comedy here, which isn't actually a bad case in all honesty.

Holy hell this was really good. Funny and really good visual style.

Seems like they could go somewhere with that dude with the scars Number 15 was talking about near the end. (Or perhaps he could just be introduced next episode, either way works)

I loved it . And the ending song is so catchy .
The sparkles threw me off a little at the beginning but I got used to them very easily .
Definitely will be waiting for this one every week .

I didn't think this was gonna be this boring, was really hoping the humor would stand out but just didn't do anything for me. The trap was also so obvious too, it was disappointing. Not that it really matters but the excessive amount of sparkles was annoying.

In the end, most will probably just see this as another fujobait show and it sure doesn't try to hide it.

Will probably drop it in another episode or 2.

What is happening with anime nowadays it's loli, moe, bishou(jo)nens "are they gay/lesbian or not" everywhere!? I prefer anime over tv-series cause it has more content, like plot and originality now it's only bait, bait, bait and plain stories... I'm not even counting the harem ones.

^I don't see what's so fujoshi about this so far, even if you're squinting. Maybe if you squint really hard then yeah. Then again I don't consider myself one.

This was more entertaining than I thought it'd be, but I'm still unsure if it's a keeper. It's mostly just really random and wacky, and it reminds me of how I felt about Binan Koukou, which had its moments but overall didn't really engage me. I'm actually interested in Juugo, since at least we're getting some backstory.

Not impressed with voicing, art style, or the humor. I really like some of the anime with "light" humorous content but this one just tries too hard for me. Gone in 60 Seconds with a 4/10.

Interesting series. It has silly plot, silly context, but nonetheless fun comedy.

The deliberately exaggerated design seems to also deliver on the silliness.

I guess I'll keep watching.

"best prison in the world" - shit's walls literally fall apart
"most secure prison" - has easy accessible control panels on the walls, human sized air ducts, it's barely lit and has bars in cells instead of full steel dors
Pointless rant, but the beginning of this series left me with red face due to constant facepalming.

Also, why all four of them are metrosexuals with painted nails?

Three years of watching anime regularly and I still don't understand the character design for this "genre" of anime. Time to give up.

Do they still perform anal inspection? Nah, that would be inappropriate, or...
