It had pre-airing dates. Maybe some people here saw it.
Not strange though because some other anime went up to the 30's after one episode, it was something about swords and being online.


This comment is so much win.

Ya, the first episode was just mostly eye candy, but holy hell did it succeed at being that.

This episode was sooo nice. The atmosphere was absolutely surreal, the art and music just went together to create this really perfect environment wow. The animation is probably going to end up being one of the best parts of this series.
I'm really excited for the next episode already aha looking forward to this show all season. uwu

More like so much fail; people can't just let it go. Its pathetic really, this forum is about K yet you obsess about something that no matter how much you hate will not change in popularity; heck if anything you just add to it.

Something is telling me the story will go somewhere. I do agree that it does seem a little messy right now, but my hunch is telling me that GoHands is building up for something grand in the long run, I just can't see a project as big as this ending with anything less, there has been so much planning and effort put into this.

Bishies everywhere.

Have a bad feeling that there's going to be a lot of fanservice on both sides...

didn't really understand anything about the plot, but a true otaku never expects to get the story on the first episode anyways.
all i got was that it's set in a futirstic japan which is in grave danger yet again.
there were talks about kings, knights, and swords. and there were some awe-inspiring action scenes....

the animation quality is out of the world, and it gets better because of the perfectly done camera angles and spot on zoom in and zoom outs...

all in all this 1st episode sure lives up to the all the hype this series got. but keeping my fingers crossed, i have seen too many animes losing their plots after starting in a promising way.

The animation and art are pretty good, but I don't know how to feel about the story ye‒ actually, we don't even know what's about yet.
Anyways, I wasn't expecting much, but so far is the best show from the season ‒ in my opinion.

At first it was "lol Drrr", after the opening it was "why you torture me this shitty chase" and in the end it was "wow skateboarding! how cool!" + gay blush. Would say decent episode if it wasn't full with nothing. Looking forward to the next episode I guess.

So will there be homo buttsecks?

This went down pretty much as I expected it, which is a good thing for me because so far except for Tonaro no Kaibutsu all the Fall titles have been slightly below my expectations, judging from the first episode.
I liked the art and animation, it reminded me of Tekkon Kinkreet at times and overall the visuals were just great. The character desings are decent too, but together with that one short scene I guess some people we'll scream 'I knew it! BL!' after all.
As for the plot, we don't know all that much yet, but the fast pace and everything made the episode pass by quickly (also a good thing) and even though it's not terribly original it seems to be the kind of story I enjoy if it's well done (gangs, turf wars, that stuff). My only worries are if 13 episodes will be enough to make it work, but I guess we'll see that later.
So far this is in the top 3 of my Fall titles, but there are still many to come.
I probably regret this post by now.

dude only 13 episodes of this the SHAME! still the first episode is a good introduection to the series. can't wait for more.
It will be 2 cour. I am sure of it. There is no way this a one shot deal. It has too much potential. Remains to see how it ends.
Noinochi said:

No there is not going to be. Action/plot should be the focus with proper SFX/music which the composition is clearly superior already. It will be no Seikon nor Queen's Blade stuff. THe fan service will be clean and nice. That's best I can say going into explanations is hard for this.

Oh glad you liked! That part was pretty neat. In terms of Yayoi it had perfect blush/appealing. I hope more of it comes out for girls like you.

Ideally a balance between both sexes in this series for fan service should be carried out. Whether it will, remains to see. If they want girls to open their wallets, they better continue doing stuff good like the GIF. That's all I shall say for this.

I really wanted to see this, and well, im not disappointed.Im not shocked of being it too good as well though.It was just ''good'' for now IMO.
The thing is...if i would rate anime only by animation this would already have 10/10.Art and everything is just too beautiful.Colors too, OH, and OST seemed pretty nice.Hope they will use it well in future.
What i didnt like? i kinda disliked so many bishounens all the time, and this fking scene:

Plot doesnt seem a super masterpiece too, but for now (i mean Kings etc.) i simply like it.

Nope, it's clean. As in not too much nor too gross. It's MOE really.

Nice too, lots of girls are sick of fan service for guys only. This series is trying to bring them something nice to watch in anime while enjoying a little fan service for them. I think it's a good step.

As someone whose been excited for this quite a while even though i was unable to find out any info on what this was having watched the first episode i still have no clue what this is about right now.

i love the art just as much as the next guy but if you seen Mardock Scramble you will see the similarity between these two my only issue was the whole multi color thing just became hard for me to focus on scenes lol, lets see how this one turns out OST and Art seem to be it's strong points right now but that isn't always for the better...GC.

Not sure what I watched....but it was okay for the most part:

Italia is being chased for some reason.

Skater Boi, Fake Shizuo and Redhead who was Kazama from Hakuoki are one team....the Military looking folks are the others.

And because this is Japan...there's HoYay. And a nekkid girl who's a kitty.

Okay really confusing anime so far, but it was still really cool! There are loads of characters in this show. I'm guessing it will take us some time to find out who's who and who's aligned with who and what not. Like who was that naked ghost girl that no one even noticed at the school?! Also what's up with those crazy looking powers?! That one guy like bended reality into a slingshot to launch himself out of that alley! And I'm guessing MC has an evil clone somewhere or his memory was wiped out. One thing that is for sure though is that this is by far the most beautiful looking anime I've ever seen! The animation and the art are just absolutely top-notch in this series. I see a lot of potential in this show, hopefully it doesn't end up disappointing. Anyway, I loved the first episode and I definitely look forward to watching this every week!

At the end of the episode I realised nothing of substance actually really happened. Quite flashy though, but all show and no weight makes me a little wary of it.

Also, that stupid blush Yashiro had on his face. I was afraid it'll be gay and looks like it will be. I'm giving it 2 more episodes to prove itself before dumping it in the gutter.


Same here. I was expecting something really mind-blowing, but there wasn't much to the 1st ep. They didnt establish characters and just vomited character appearances at all angles. A pretty blunt start, I must say.

Yashiro's voice is very annoying (what was that blush for? -.-). Neko is, assuming it is the naked she jumping around, very disturbing. Kings and their followers are portrayed as very self-centred and arrogant. Kuroh is your loyal servant. The only solid character introduced vaguely was Yashiro's classmate who wanted to give Yashiro veggies. She was the only one given with thoughts and setting her personality. Sighs...

See how it goes it the next two.

Lol, that's a big biased statement you're making there, Yumekichi. girls can watch pretty much anything, you can't be "sick" of something that wasn't intended for you, i don't recall guys complaining and whinning that male-oriented fanservice in Shoujo, Josei and pretty much any female demographic anime, is non-existant. you think that's fair?

P,S and to be honest i don't recall see'ing girls say they're sick of moe, unless you're talking about those shut in obessed fangirls who want everything to fit their tastes.

on that note, from what i've seen and read this is a female oriented anime, i have no complaints whatsoever if they decide to put bishies in it or whatever crap they want to, although the heavy action and stuff kind of contradicts that. who knows.

Yeah the characters art really looks like Durarara! Brings back memories. Anyway, is the main protagonist the guy with the white hair? I think he's gay because he blushed after falling into the grasp of the long haired dude, too lazy to remember the names now...
