Please learn about cel animation and its technical process. Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers. |
| That.... was great. Holy shit. I got more than I expected. This is... just fuck yes. Interesting concept, potential story-lines (the mystery, town, characters will all need exploring), intense and non-stop action with practical style of sketch animation, proper anime directing and fast-blooded pace. Hell the OST is better than AoT and GC by miles already. Granted some of the stuff contained here aren't new, but they're presented fresh with great tension and accessibility. I'm no fan of hype, but when Trigger knows exactly what they're aiming for here, it's the first time I'm smiling while riding on the hype train. Great start. |

| The tension is so high in this first episode |
| Interesting....I guess this isn't my type of anime because I don't like the style of directing, though I love the action scenes. Not a huge fan of the typesetting either. I'll still keep watching since I'm a huge fan of Sawano Hiroyuki :) I might get used to the directing anyways and it could grow on me. Kind of agree with the person below me that it's really fast paced for the first episode. |

| Well,I guess I have to be that guy. It was not as amazing as I expected.......please don't kill me.The show can get to the level of awesomeness I'm expecting from it,but I'm just not feeling it for the first episode.Why?The pacing was too fast for an introduction.In fact,everything felt fast. I guess they didn't want to waste their time or something,I don't know.And I know I'm probably going to get hated for not instantly 10/10-ing this anime.Now,that we're passed the 1st episode,the pacing should be less of a noticeable issue. Everything else is good.8.5/10 |
| My Devianart Oh & Space Brothers is still the best anime ever,in my opinion.Even when competing with Attack on Titan. |
| HE SAVED ANIME! HIROYUKI IMAISHI SAVED ANIME! |

| Just marathoned TTGL and this sure has a similar feeling. Looks like we are up for a good ride here guys. |
| SUCH AWESOMENESS! Finally the first proper tv show by the figurative phoenix that has risen from the ashes once known as Gainax is upon us! But seriously, I can't contain my exitement about what the coming episodes are going to offer especially with this being two-cours, the excessive animation and over-the-top action scenes had me screaming at the top of my lungs. With Kyousogiga, Yozakura Quartet and Kyoukai no Kanata this season really should prove itself as one of the most sakuga-heavy seasons in recent years. |
 |
| Holy shit what the fuck is this show! This shit reminds me of FLCL and Gurren Lagann. |
| Oh, and the teacher giving lectures on the fascist party was a nice bit of irony considering how the academy is being ran. |
 |
| That was pretty fabulous. Looking forward to the next episode! |

Shows like this tend to get loved and praised instantly though, so we'll be in the minority for a while. OT: Oh how I missed Koshimizu Ami. That was a pretty good start I guess. Fast paced and lots of actions. Hopefully they keep the fanservice to a minimum though. |
| The amount of HYPE is too damn high! that was one great start ever, i really love it! |
| Do you play Azure Lane? Then please join my fanclub https://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=74907 |
| This is the most awesome shit I've seen in a while!! |
 |
| So intense, I liked a lot. I want the OST RIGHT NOW. |
| 11/10 step aside brotherhood pls |

| My ass. It has been kicked. And I love that they addressed the ridiculous outfit. |
 |
| Also, the OST is amazing. |

| Seeing as this is the spiritual successor to Gurren Lagann lets hope Studio Trigger make Kill La Kill better then Gurren Lagann. Excited to see whats to come ^^ |

thepath said: I can't wait to watch it. I hope this is as good as people say here. Hopefully this show will be the next attack on titan no...please god no why would you wish that upon any series. |
| This is what Medaka Box should had been. XD Currently my favorite anime this season. |

Excessive hype can ruin shows to some people and I hope that this board doesn't get filled with useless unfunny topics like SnK ( shipping, yaoi crap, levi hair, misaka lips, etc) |

| Great start, it was better than I expected, I even laughed a lot. VioLink said: that really made me laugh XDhttp://i.imgur.com/ewNfLKY.gif >Hahahahahaha! Nidhoeggr said: Talk about an amazing first episode! Very fast paced and with tons of potential, this is easily my favourite opening episode thus far. Same here, I can't think of another series this season that I could like more than this one, if Trigger mantains this quality of course. |
Currently watching everything that comes out to avoid missing something good... |

| Lol the episode was full of laughs and I loved every second of it. Amazing start of the season. Animation and characters and fast pace talking of it was enjoyable. For Triggers first animation production, it was promising. I can't wait to see more of this. |
| Wow. Over the top as expected and it didn't disappoint. I can't wait for the rest of the series now. Hope it maintains quality. Definitely liking the protagonist, badass females are my favorite. Don't know how I feel about the skimpy outfit though. Her dad is pretty creepy for keeping that around. |

| Lmao, that was special. It was really, really special. Anime is SAVED! XD Intense/5 |
 |
| I didn't watch Tengen Toppa, but I really liked this first episode. The action scenes are funny and also the rivalry between the main female characters might turn out to be very interesting in the future. Btw why do some people say Anime is saved? XD |
| Shall I compare thee to a summer day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate <3 |
| Puts you right into the action, looks like they were intending for a strong start. At first, I was drawn in.. but then comes the fanservice. It's not that I "hate" fanservice, it's just that it makes things slightly less serious for me. Thus, I can't take the anime as serious as I was hoping to. Will watch the next few episodes though just to see where it's going. |

| This show is madness. |
 |
| glad i decided to watch this today. loving the MC already. the rest of the characters all seem pretty interesting too so far. the animation and action was really great fro me :D |

| I'm not dreaming, anime is saved thanks to gurren lagann creator ! |
Tsukuyomi-Ryuku said: Not necessary but it helps.You gotta be a Gurren Lagann fan to like this and considering I ain't one I'm dropping this. Won't be dropping it so far as it was fun and might be decent series. But with 26 episodes I'm not sure if they will have enough money/ideas to make it interesting. |
| Damn amazing!!! 5/5 I hope this is consistent thru the series! Can't for ep 2! |
