It looks bad, really fucking bad, low fps is probably the biggest problem with cgi animation this days, with orange and cyclone graphics the only ones that actually try to make it their own type of style. Ok i agree with number 3, but the thing is, THIS ANIMATION DOES LOOK NATURAL, it makes its objetive which is create hype and excitement, its fast, fluid in some parts and more choppy in others, is that bad? NO. The more choppy animation was done by the director seong ho park, and thats just his animation style. I know your biggest gripe on the show is the noses, which again i dont really like it too, but again thats a character design problem, not animation, those are too diferent things. 4, ok thats fine, i follow people because i apreciate their work, i like to say congrats on twitter when an animator does a good job on an episode, i like to comeback to see their animation and the more you look into it the more you want to see more of it and the more you apreciate their work because you understand that it is hard, you understand that not everyone is capable of what they are doing, but if you dont want to follow people, thats fine, thats on you, but criticizing the work of people that are CLEARLY having passion and dedication with their amazing animation, i just cant let that slide. No im not a girl, when i was talking about emotion, its the objetive of the animation, like i said before here it was to create hype and excitement, THOSE ARE EMOTIONS.VP2003boi said: saying that your drawing are better than in the episode is just, fucking retarded i dont care your ego is through the fucking roof, god dam. The funny thing is that you obviusly confuse drawing with animation, thats just a fact, even then its pretty fucking dumb what you are saying, your point 4 doesnt have nothing to do with you knowing a computer, 0 correlation. Its obvius you dont know how to animate, just drawing, and making 3D models, is that animating? NO you dumbass. Animation is movement, it may be subtle character animation like in kyoani shows, or it may be action pack like in opm. Does the drawing need to go with the laws of physics, of course not man. There are exceptions of course, mainly when animating subtle movements and character acting, but it doesnt need to be perfect, take keiichiro watanabe or even a better example, yutaka nakamura, they are praised as animation gods, do they make their animation go exacly how physics work? OBVIUSLY NOT, THAT IS NOT THE POINT OF ANIMATION, animation is all about movement and convenying the correct emotion. Its obvius you dont know what sakugabooru is, because you totally ditched that point, so again, i recomend you go there and see for yourself what animation really is. 1. if you say so. I am nowhere near the level I can make money from my art but I still maintain am better than the hack that draw this episode 2. I am not confusing anything. Yes I do not have animations on that site, but I did create plenty. Also you do realize CGI and games animate characters in various ways, right? Not sure why you keep insisting they have 0 correlation. 3. the animation has to look natural. If it looks unnatural to the person watching it it breaks the immersion 4.I understand you are a huge fan of certain people. Personally I do not know any of them. I generally appreciate the work without looking on who did the work. 5. Conveying the right emotion... are you a girl by any chance? They seem to have total disregard of reality and care only about emotions |
| The cho aniki reference was the best part of this first episode. I dont think I'll watch more of this anime, but I'll give it credit, despite beig too fast paced, at least is not as boring as tower of fod |

You just did not bring any worth while arguments to the table up to this point. My point was that I have doing animation with crappy tools which takes more skill... something you have none or any idea of.

nightcrawlercyp said: Yea, its not like i didnt even like the episode, yea obviusly not. I dont bring good arguments? really? oh they are so bad that you dont bother to adress them, i at least try to adress yours, so you should at least counterargument, thats the basic discussion. Ok i agree there is no point arguing with people that obviusly cant see their mistakes, and even if they do see them, dont want to say they doVP2003boi said: Again you ego is through the roof, you art is not better than the anime, thats obvius, you know it, everyone in the world with knows it.

| Solid first episode. Honestly, this episode didn't even have to try, it sucked me right in and I'm invested. I like it way more than Tower of God. Granted, I read the webtoon/manhwa of this, however, I only read up to chapter 50 or so, might pick it up again. But that was like five years ago, my memory is kind of hazy so I need to re-read it from the beginning. It was wacky and stupid but tons of fun. Like both the OP and Ed. Animation seems good so far, loving the voice acting. Jin Mori creating a whole scenario of the grandma was pretty funny. Also, I love how it actually takes place in South Korea. They didn''t change the names like Baam was changed into Yoru. |
| 臭い- |
| This was amazing....but man those red noses and ears are gonna be annoying. I wish certain shows would stop doing that. Reminds me of the Shera reboot where everyone has a line on her nose. |
| I got a Masters degree. I don't have to worry bout school anymore. |
| Correct me if im wrong but from what I remember in the manhwa the first round as a battle royal was in a completely different setting, had no spectators or stage and the tournament itself seemed pretty secretive as a whole |

Kinben69 said: SirTristram said: I would be judgemental like I am at the moment, not gonna lie. It is common sense actually, if you find a certain mediums most praised works decent at most then maybe they aren't meant for you or they aren't up to your standards. At least the first few suggestions someone gets when starting to anime/manga is usually really good. Regardless, I'm not a close minded person -hopefully-. I would be more than happy to give a chance to your must read/great webtoons. Who knows, maybe you can open a whole new medium for me. This is one of the most famous webtoons being one of the top 3 just like Naruto,One Piece, Bleach. It doesn't mean it is the only genre existing here. If you judge all the medium based on the most famous work you will miss a lot of things that you may like. It doesn't mean is the best story in webtoon, it doesn't mean it has the most interesting characters in webtoon. Is just that is one of the oldest and one that many people enjoy. Since Naruto is one of the most famous anime it means it is one of the best? LOL, not even close You are just rambling, there is only one way to solve this debate. All you have to do is recommending me something that you think is great -if it isn't popular at all + points for your argument- and I'll read it objectively hoping it is actually good. Not a hard thing to do considering there should be at least a few really good stories, like in any other medium. I'm open to new experiences, you can easily prove your point to me if you are right. I've never seen people labeling the big 3 as a top tier manga/story -except one piece-. They are/were undeniably popular shonen mangas -more popular as an anime probably-, but that is all. If you check the top manga list you'll see only one One Piece is in the top 100 (ranked 5). Naruto is ranked 561 and Bleach is ranked 1710. Compare it to both Tower of God and God of Highschool being in the top 50 (2. and 32. respectively) you can see it is not only about the popularity. If what you claim is true and they are ranked high because of their popularity alone, then manwha readers must be poor critics. What I think is the case here though, there aren't really many good manhwas. It is a simple induction actually, whetever it holds till the end or not. They all seem like a cheap fanfictions of their manga counterparts, catering to fans with lots of fanservice and no substance. Nevertheless these are all my assumptions about the medium from what I've seen so far. I'll be more than happy to admit if I am wrong. |
| Not as bad as I expected it to be A lot of cliches already. Has potential |
| Goddamn, I was so invested at that, that I though that scene at the end was just the half way point that episode went by so fast. I like the humor of the show it actually made me laugh. Overall enjoyed the hell out of this episode can't wait for more. Those crunchyroll and webtoon ad placements though. And this is some wallpaper worthy shit.  |

-Stray said: If people called ToG the HxH of manhwa, this right here is the DBZ of manhwa, ya’ll aint ready for whats about to happen! Ya’ll gonna get awesome fights here!!!! I’ve read the webtoon and this is definitely my top favorite! 2nd UnOrdinary! 1st ep really delivered, also dont expect a 1:1 adaptation here, this will obviously be rushed based on the number of ep and what the poster teases. Seems like you've just been introduced to manhwas. |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. |

| So people giving it high score because of animation ??? 1st episode is boring and fights are boring. Animation might be good but the fights are trash when you compare to something like Baki and Kengan Ashura. I just hope it get better later. Weak start so far |
| Not bad for a first episode, I'd say that it's better than Tower of God. I really liked the main three leads and will see what happens after that. |
 |
| Not much to say about the story yet and there wasn't much world-building besides there being some kind of tournament you get scouted for. But it was very stylish and it looks like a lot of love went into animating this. Not a fan of the Tumblr Noses |
| Not bad for the first episode. Those 3 Main Characters look loveable. Other characters also look badass when showing off their skill. Not a fan with the op and ed, need to listen to them again to decided. And those visible red nose and ears.... looks weird...but the animation looks fine so far.. |
 |
I personally never heared about or read the webtoon but it was a good start imo.  |
 |
| I actually really like this episode. The OP especially has a lot of charm in it. Arigato studio MAPPA, already much better than ToG |
 |
| Ngl, I was going into this with low expectations, but the first episode was quite a banger! Also that OP is LIT! Key visual really didn't make me like the character designs, but going through the episode, it grew on me a bit! Animation is amazing! I guess I am hooked after all! Can't wait to see more! |

ToG is the ugly little brother of HxH that no one should acknowledge I can't believe that people would have the gall to put ToG on the same level as HxH |

| Characters seem memorable, art style checks out, humor spot on - really enjoyed watching it. Though, I really wanted a realisitc martial arts show without characters being slung into concret walls, I must admit the fights were fun to watch. Especially the outlandish move of stealing the katana with the toes despite wearing sandals. So far not really strong but I am excited to see where this is headin twoards. |

cchigu said: Farabeuf said: Welcome to the world of webtoons. Now only if we get a Solo Leveling anime so that we can complete the whole collection. Ngl, the future of anime is looking grim if these webtoon anime keep getting traction.God that was absolutely awful. I literally cringed at 3 points during the episode. I confess I only picked this up because MAPPA was doing it, and I generally never drop anything before I've seen a third of a season, but if its all like this, its gonna be a tough watch. All hype and no substance. The jokes were flat and the character designs were meh too. Let's hope it improves. More than anything, Crunchyroll throwing the kitchen sink at hyping them up is doing the trick. If these kinds of shows were released on Prime or Netflix no one would care about them one bit and they'd be scoring much lower than they do. |

| Good impression so far. Good animations, cool fights and nice music. The story seems pretty straightforward but I still laughed and the characters are quit memorable. |

qcxw said: It would've been cool if they dumped some exposition. So far theres literally zero reason to care about anything happening in this show. Some kind of hotshit norules tourney everybody is incredibly excited about yet have no idea what it actually is. No world-building - what the hell exactly are the superpowers? What their extent is? I couldn't even tell whether the girl hitting a sing with her face and walking like nothing happened supposed to be an over-the-top comedy or shes actually strong and badass. The animation is great tho. It's fluid, impactful, nicely choreographed. Also, how to establish an OP main character 101: show us a flashback of them crying and a teacher figure telling them be strong and face the hardships. Honetsly i have no idea how anybody can consider this to be a solid start. I couldnt have describe it better. |
| :v |
| The first half was a lot of stupid fun over the top action that I really enjoyed. The second half, when we got to the arena, was more stupid action, except the not the fun kind, I was honestly bored in this part of the episode in spite of the excellent action direction throughout. |
 |
| Real banger but it felt rushed. Overall enjoying. Totally loved Mori. |
| It seems like it has the same feel as the manhwa, which is very promising, as that manhaw is at least top 10 all time storywise for me personally. Dae-Wi - Mori - Mi-ra trio is just so epic. I think I'll reread the whole thing. Fighting scenes look great to be honest. Pretty nicely done for a premiere! Dislike the op love the ed. |
SholeJul 7, 2020 3:35 PM
| glad to see them jump right into the action! I'm interested in more of it! |
| Rather uninteresting first episode. The first scene was the only part that had any amount of story. But then that first scene had zero relevance to the rest of the episode. The key animation is really nice during the high action sequences; other than those moments, rather average. but the cars and cityscape look yuck. And the indoor backgrounds look yuck. Character designs are ugly as heck. Why does literally everyone have red ears and noses. |
~my list
| Seems like just good dumb fun. I'm interested. |
| Finished the first episode, finally. Imma trying to compared the first episode between these and the last Webtoon adaptation. GOH really had an impressive start, while my comparison show had a lack impression at the beginning. Fortunately, its not turning on to some boredom here on the GOH. Overall its a nice Introduction to the Jun appearance of power, when they were using the impactful matter for the storyline : directly gone into the battle action. Its a surprising. My satisfaction goes high by that decision. Still the whole premises might had some hollow on this Introduction. Could it be filled better? Or its got worsening? So far, by its art design, a composition over it, the overall key animation, a back sounds and tracks, all were in a very good terms. The paced was kinda rushed for me by the very sudden fateful met by the three of them. Idk. But, overall, i might undelining it again, its an okay introduction. Lets see wait to the next episode for seeing the progress of their effort and the development over the story building. Thats it for now. Finally MAPPA do the right choice taking this series rather than a bullshit on the previous season. Time to catch a big fish, righ? |

| art direction was sick |
 |
| Just as @Stark700 said, it was a pretty energetic and fun start. I really liked the quirky style of Jin and Yu and the serious tone of Han. They were very charming and entertaining. The animation was very decent, and the fight scenes and the choreography were really cool as well. The opening and the ending were also very decent and enjoyable. Overall, it was a great first episode I would say. I think The God of High School is going to be one of the best anime of the Summer 2020 season. |
| Wow, part of me regret even reading 200 chapters into GOH, so I can get better impact introduction to this series. Going through the OP, the main 3 characters stand out and each having their own unique personality/ability. If the rest of the episodes are 90% consistent animated, then we have GOH as anime of the year. |
