| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- A strange start but interesting. The OP song has a catchy tone to it as well. I like Tenga the most so far, feels like he can be a character that is going to be fun to watch. Agata's a really strange character, not sure I'll like him although there's some background storytelling about him already. Noriko 's connection with the Kiznaiver system is interesting and I think we'll learn even more about how it works besides what's on paper like sharing wounds and damage. Artwork seems alright so far for a Trigger show. I think the show has potential with the premise.  |
 |
| OP is cool and ED is nice (I actually like ED song more than OP). I cannot wait to learn about what they are going to happen with the system because first ep. is mostly we know. Though that girl from his memory looks like the mysterious girl. I'm not sure, but there's some connection to her mentioning 7 sins (probably those that gathered are related to 7 sins?). |

| I don't know why but the OP reminds me of A-ha - "Take on me" Really interesting start. I love the idea behind that and the characters are also pretty likable. Let's see what Trigger gives us this time. |
Fappa said: I don't know why but the OP reminds me of A-ha - "Take on me" Omg it does. lol That opening scene had beautiful art to it and I loved the color palette they went with. That ass attack though.  Trigger is behind it this so let's hope it will be good. 4/5 |

holyfox6894 said: Fappa said: I don't know why but the OP reminds me of A-ha - "Take on me" Omg it does. lol First thing that came to my mind as well! XD Pretty good start, although I didn't like the mc at all, all the others were okay I guess. I liked the premise, pretty unique how all of them can feel each other's pain now. Can't wait to see where this is going |
| Good start, Niko is already the best character.. The art is beautiful, all the colors, so pretty I don't get the MC, but let's see where we can reach in this anime. |
| Listening to that OP made made feel like I was high as fuck lol....I liked it though along with the ED Right off the bat, the art style and just plain old weirdness and wackiness just screams Trigger which is always a good thing and quite frankly it all works very well just like with most of their series lol The characters so far are great but the standout is easily Tenga because that guy is a real bro and is awesome as fuck....Great personality on him too....I like Not Esdeath a lot as well as the megane girl and Chidori (Where's Sasuke lol)....The rest are pretty weird like the fairy girl but that is by no means a bad thing here MC is really strange though but the reason why I'm giving his pushover attitude a pass is because it's really not his fault as to why he's like that....Still, I really liked the interactions that he had with Tenga, Chidori and Not Esdeath The concept behind this Kizuna System and Kiznaiver thing is very interesting yet a little confusing so I'm REALLY looking forward to finding out more about this stuff later on because I wanna see the fullest extent of this sharing pain thing as well as to see their powers (I'm assuming that they got powers at the end there) and then see how this world peace goal will plan out Great start overall imo |

| liked the atmosphere, hope this wont end up being half-assed |
| That was pretty out there huh? Well they learned Pain Split and Boobie Fondle. XD MC's really bland, intentionally so, but still to an at times irritating extent. He was experimented on as a kid I assume? Not much else to say really just...odd. |
| Nice start. The art is really good and the OP was interesting. I don't know what to think about the MC though... 4/5 |
 |
| I thought it was interesting. I love the OP. |
| :3 |
| TRIGGER IS BACK, BABY Hajime is that silliness that comes from a Trigger series; I think I'm really gonna love him. OP is pretty good, coming from someone who's usually not into Boom Boom Satellites. If anything, it looks amazing. The whole OST was great, though. |

| Well that was... something Gonna take a while to really see what this show will be about but I liked the start at least |
  |
| An introvert probably "weak", at least for now MC that become a target for bullying. But never defy Logic. |

| I like it! I like chara designs and animation! *.* Story seems to be interesting :D and... Kaji-kun voice in this one! And this chara! Is like Kenma from "Haikyuu!" *.* I love it! Want more! |
| I'm in love with the art style but I don't really like the MC a lot. |
| I enjoyed this episode a lot. I couldn't want until this episode was released and when it was I was pleasantly surprised. The only thing I don't like is the MC, he irritates me; hopefully he will get some development now that he feels pain and should be able to connect with others. Also, I don't quite understand that thing that got linked on all their arms. I mean they were already sharing pain at this point, so I wonder what that does. Also, do you guys know whether or not the pain sharing system decreases pain by spreading it evenly among the group of Kiznaivers or if each person feels the full extent of the original pain inflicted? |
| Niko = Nui? I would laugh so hard, if Niko would be the total psychopath in this group. I also liked the OP, didn't know Boom Boom Satellites where still around, really liked the Xamd OPs. |
 |
| Wow. Some random bitch dragging MCs into something they don't want. What a great way to start and move the plot! Has no one learned from Charlotte? MC is cute. He somewhat reminds me of Tanaka. I can't help but feel like the OP is what you see when high. |
The sun is a deadly laser |
| no idea whats going on but its only epsiode 1 |
| Okay, thoughts so far, for one I just have to get out of the way how fucking visually amazing this show looks. Like holy shit this is probably one of the most visually impressive anime I've seen. The idea of everyone sharing the same pain is pretty neat, but I wonder how it works? When Katushira fell from the stairs it seemed like everyone shared the pain and reduced it by splitting it amongst themselves so he could live. But when Nico slaps Tenga(a.k.a best guy) it looked like they all felt the same force of Nico's slap and when Chidori started abusing herself it looked like they felt the same pain then as well. The characters all seem likable enough but I need some growth to get attached to them. Also has best OP of the season. ty trigger, you have done what swagamoto, mha, and kabaneri could not. You have saved anime. |
| every single one of my forum posts is dumb and invalid except for 1, I don't claim them it was a different person it was all fake |
| Not as edgy as I was expecting, but by the end with the wrists exploding with blood I can feel it getting to that level |
 |
| Most stylish anime of 2016? |
 |
| Well that was all over the place. It's going to be as polarizing as Kabaneri surely, but it'll be fun to watch whether it crashes and burns or becomes something. |
 |
| Solitary boy receives ability after meeting (blue-haired) mysterious girl. OK... well, it's from TRIGGER, so I will apply my Gainax logic and follow it. But 13 eps and I don't see any road ahead after the first episode? I was never fond of this kind of drawings, but it is pretty. The opening too. Enjoyment: 3/5 Tentative score: 5/10 Note: a single hour after its first episode's worldwide airing, it has already received 20% of 9 and 10 (for a total of 500+ notations) ?! Are'nt people hasty... (we still don't know anything) |

| That OP felt trippy. Tenga is the standout so far, the MC and blue haired chick are already annoying to me. Hope they focus more on side characters in this show |
| Didn't feel very subtle with its subtext(?), what with "the darkness locked inside your heart," "the seven deadly sins of modern life," "to find themselves in you you must be connected," and what not. I love the art, the character animations, the designs. Just beautiful, honestly. Trigger doesn't disappoint in this factor (and the music and OP are cool as well). I do like the visual effects, but the choice of sound for when they get hurt/share pain, not so much. It's jarring, but I guess that's the point. Kenga is a bro, Niko is cute, and Katsu's hilarious. Don't have any thoughts on the other characters, but hopefully they show more eccentricities and idiosyncrasies. We're only one episode in, after all. |
| Cool! Great start to another bright show of this season. The episode was strange overall but the second half really grabbed my attention. The premise of Kiznaiver system is interesting but the idea of world peace is quite absurd. Maybe they'll have something more interesting. The MC seems fine, and the characters are unique so it will be great to watch them interact. |
 |
| Okay so we have 7 characters that have random connection to seven deadly sins who now share pain. ... OK. AND?? Truly this episode doesn't tell much about what is going to happen in the series later on. So what else is there to look at in first episode. Some characters are good, some are bad, some have a god complex. Still, props for that guy who made the "ASS-STRIKE". On the other hand though, I hate this kind of MC. I don't care whatever he doesn't feel physical pain, but the complete airhead MC always irritate me. My biggest question about this series thought is... what were they smoking when they were making some of those scenes. Like the where MC is transported on hospital bed, surrounded by some strange creatures, with disco-lights flashing everywhere around. |
| I have no idea what to think of this. It's definitely as odd as you'd expect from Trigger, but even for them this is really bizarre. Also, with Sonozaki talking about the Seven Deadly Sins and all, why is there only six of them sharing the pain, and why did she only mention six of the Sins. Given that she showed no signs of pain or gaining the mark, it can be assumed that she isn't one of the Seven, especially given that she seems to be the one behind this (or at least a figurehead of whoever's actually behind this). Not sure about the OP and ED yet, but the OP definitely sounds really familiar for some reason. |
| YOOOOOOOOOO that opening though. That's the best anime opening of Spring 2016, hands down This is gonna compete for AOTS with Re Zero. Trigger is back boyzzzzzzzzzzzzz |

| The art and the music is good. The story seems intriguing, though having seen episode 0 it really hasn't shown anything new from that show. I get the feeling that this show is going to be more psychological than action-based. Seems like one of those shows where we take the seven weirdest combination of character traits and see what each of them will do if they're suddenly forced into this little experiment. All through the episode I had two questions cross my mind though.... first off, if Agata was pushed off the stairs, then shouldn't those other six have something happen to their necks? I'll assume that it was because the system hadn't been implemented on him yet, that they didn't have to "share". Second question was hypothetical..... since they don't have them... what happens to the girls if someone injures one of the guys privates? And to put that further, what would happen to the group of them if one of the guys and one of the girls decided to bang? Would EVERYONE in the group be "feelin' it"? |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| a new non-short anime by TRIGGER? fuck yeah im watching it. ep1 was solid and i love the premise already. characters are to my liking aswell. |
| really good episode i thought, female characters were better than the male ones except for sonozaki. sonozaki rubs me in all the wrong ways and needs to die. |
| I really feel like the episode should have been 40 minutes. The concept and symbols were pretty interesting but I felt like it was missing that one thing to really grab me. Hopefully we will learn more next episode. |
| "Everyone dies nya" |
| Sonozaki could be the girl from Katsuhiro's memory I guess. Second best episode of the season after Kabaneri, OP is great and ED shows the very good character design up close. This will be a very entertaining show^^ |
| I cannot stomach Okada's writing for the life of me which is a damn shame as this looks and sounds very good, plus the concept is intriguing too. Unfortunately, I'll have to pass on this. |
| Pretty interesting start. Not sure what to expect from this show and that's what makes it intriguing. Sonozaki pushing the MC down the stairs was very unexpected. Characters seem fairly interesting for now. Hope the show turns out good. |
 |
| H O L Y S H I T T H I S W A S A W E S O M E Please 24 episodes |
| I'm so glad this didn't end up being another joke series like Ninja Slayer. Anyway, this episode was pretty interesting as we learned about the Kizuna System. I'm liking Tenga a lot, that ass attack was hilarious. I don't really care for the other characters so far, especially the MC, but hopefully that can change as this progresses. This got off to a pretty decent start, so I'm curious to see where it's headed. This looks like it has the potential to have an intriguing story. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| Hmm...interesting, but will it follow through with decent explanations and plot development? This whole sharing wounds thing seems like a far-fetched idea to me. I have my doubts it will be done well. I hope I am wrong though. |
| If this get's 22 or 24 episodes, it's official that Spring of 2016 is going to be perfect. Getting this on Saturdays, and Re Zero on Sundays. Weekend is just <3 !!!! |
