| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Ok so like, if the first ep of a series can tell how good a series will be, then this series will kick so much ass. The ED is pretty awesome too. |
 |
| seems interesting. the charcters are pretty cool. Mikan <33333333333333 |
 |
| Looks like it'll be a good one. It reminds me a lot of Ghost Hunt. |
 |
| Love the art style and animation. Lots of whats and "wth's" in this first episode. Those translator notes in the end are crazy, but the "fetish" is damn funny. It's all good. |
 |
| 1st episode was great, it looks like this series is going to be pretty interesting, and indeed the great selection of voice actors wins^^, |
 |
| Well I thought it sucked. Hope it gets better, don't want to have to drop it. |
| I didn't think it sucked, but I wasn't as swept away with it as I was hoping to be. That said, it's still one of the better new shows I've watched so far, and I like the characters well enough. I think it has a fair bit of potential to tap into. |
 |
| Yay, Rie Kugimiya~ It was okay, it's pretty interesting and has potential I think. Let's see what the next episodes will be like. |

| Was expecting more out of it, but at the same time, I'm not disappointed... just hoping it'll improve to the level I was hoping it would be. Characters, art, and what I've heard of the sound are all wins, so we'll see how the plot goes ^^ |
| Disappointing - it feels like Ghost Hunt, only not good. And I hate the President already. Think I may end up dropping this one. |
     |
| Maybe I was expecting too much, but I'm actually a little disappointed in the first episode. I won't drop it by any means, I just hope the next few episodes are, well, better. |
     |
| 1st ep wasn't really good nor bad. But it reminded me on D.Gray Man, that I have droped, if it continues to be like that, I'll drop it, too ;P |
     |
| First a Zombie Loan, now a Rental Magica... I wonder if this will be decent. So far the first episode was not bad, but I can't say it was promising either... seems to be a common trait for the new fall shows. I'll give it a few episodes to convince me. |
     |
| I thought it was supposed to be a light novel, not an RPG. If this ends up being a monster of the week deal, I'm cutting it. Otherwise, though, I'm curious. I'll give it a couple more episodes. |
  |
| Heh, thought the episode was alright. Show definitely has promise and loved the ending. Can't get enough Mikan <3 |

hounddog said: Disappointing - it feels like Ghost Hunt, only not good. And I hate the President already. Think I may end up dropping this one. ditto. Only i havnt watched Ghost hunt yet. After only 20 or so seconds i got bored -.-'.... And 8 mins or so through i got really bored, i was just waiting really for it to hurry up and finish. Definetly a letdown. Dont want to watch anymore really, since it was so boring, and alot of it all done before. But i'll give it a few more eps to convince me otherwise, otherwise i may just drop it. |

| Eh? Maybe all of you had high expectations higher than the moon. Or maybe because Blue Drop is the anime that has my high expectations. Anyway, I liked this episode a lot. Out of the 5 Spring Anime i started this week, I liked this one the most. |
| It was rather boring for me. I hope it will get a bit better... |
| I find that people with any expectations as to what it should be like get let down, which is why I never go in with good expectations, in some cases I go in with bad expectations , ie. Maple Story. |
|
| Not bad, not amazing either. It was just OK. I'll keep watching. Since I don't like to drop stuff it has a change with me even if it's a little weak. I didn't like that president either. |
     |
| It was alright. |
| This show was not on my radar, but I decided to watch it after seeing some other people begin to watch it. I really enjoyed this. The music was great, Iba was pretty cool, and the whole rent-a-magician groups competing thing could be pretty awesome. I'm looking forward to the next episode. |
 |
| i enjoyed this anime alot |
 |
| It was okay. I was happy to recognize a lot of seiyuus like Jun Fukuyama, Rie Kugimiya, Junichi Suwabe, and Kana Ueda but the rest of the episode was meh. Like someone said earlier, it didn't sweep me away. Unlike the person above me, I liked Night Wizard better than this and this is one that I might drop if it doesn't get any better in a few eps. |
     |
| liking the ED. not going to drop it, its not really that bad of a show, it just needs more time ;0 |
     |
| It was promising. Good characters... |
 |
| The first episode was ok. I'll still watch it because it seems like it'll get better |
 |
| So I uhh... finally got off my ass to watch the one episode of Rental Magica that I had. I really enjoyed it. Okay, it screamed GENERIC to me (I mean we have a wimpy main character with some strange powers or whatever that comes out in times of need, the monster - of - the - week person with sad past, the sob story being told out of nowhere in the episode, etc). But I've never hated generic, you know. Haha. I like Honami and her Celtic Art. Seems pretty awesome. Will watch episode two as soon as I can (don't have the episodes and I can't download anything as many of you guys know). |
| I just watched the first 1/2 of this episodes, just to get an idea of it. I liked what I saw. Now I can't wait to d/l the whole series. Looks good. |
| What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about? |
| ...what the hell? It was like a clip show! The story jumped all over the place! I'm gonna give it another chance, but if this doesn't improve then it's dropsville. |
 |
| It was an okay start, can't say much other than the pacing which was totally awful :/ well let's see what the rest of the show will offer us! |
