| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Human bombings caused in suicide forms, and Ex-Arms deployed to stop it...or as well one would say, an overly contrived and failed Dr. Stone premise. A terrorist plot, and a scientist to help aid in dissolving more instances of the cause. And is it a joke of a kiss to Minami to let Akira control Alma once again? And that's not how helicopters work...even though the Ex-Arms got their first W. Number 00 / Natsume Akira will prove to be their sole breadwinner of foreshadowing use. Again, the 2D and 3DCG fused together, it just looks ugly, no matter which angle you see it. Need I emphasize the horrible action scenes again? Even worse, the story is all over the place with plot movers instead (not like anyone cares at this point). DASAI / LAME... |

| Well, story seems to be somewhat intriguing and might be an actual redeeming quality. But the visuals tho are still horrendous and make this show literally unwatchable. Guess it would be better option to just read the manga and try to comfort original creator after his child got raped and murdered. I'll still watch it till the end, simply because we are witnessing history in the making. |
 |
| Ya know, sometimes the story seems alright, but then it falls all over the place a little. But yeah. |
| Actually an interesting episode Animation was dogshit as expected and we also got more 2D animated characters which is a huge no for me. Go full CG at least. Plot is interesting enough for me to keep watching and the second half of the episode was kinda good. Also censoring that kiss was kinda homophobic ngl |

| I was not expecting an yuri kiss lol. They just gave some people more stuff to shit on. |
 |
| Was it me or did the animation seem to change from scene to scene? Sometimes it reminded me of the old GI Joe cartoons from the late 80s/early 90s which is better than ep 1, but then it would revert to looking like one of the earlier Final Fantasies like II maybe. The story is interesting. I may come back to it when it's done to marathon and get it over with. Weekly is a no go. |
| I laughed my ass off at the censored kiss scene. |
| It... it was that light supposed to censore the kiss? |
 |
| Nope, can't do this every sunday. Two episodes is enough. |
| I can't believe I even had a sliver of hope that this wouldn't be as trash as other people seemed to believe, but ofc I was proven wrong today, this the shittiest anime I've ever seen |
| This anime shit is addictive |
| Story is generic af. Regular guy joins some sort of squad that defends the city and proves everyone wrong by being skilled or smart... Almost fell asleep this episode. If this keeps on I might have to make this anime an exclusion on my no dropping rule... |
phantomfandom said: I just went to official website to check who's Kiba and who's Kondou, but the website doesn't even finish the character page! BTW Is it too harsh that this has the lowest score (excluding OVA) in MAL? Surely there must be something worse than this right? Yes bloodivors and ecil or live but those shows apparently has people who like em so meh 🤷♂️ I rate those pretty bad but this anime takes the cake with its visuals |
 |
| bruh why tf are some characters hand drawn while others are cg why tf do all the characters have static facial expressions for the most part why tf did they censor a kiss scene LOL ok I thought at the very least the story could salvage something but even that is so ded. still can't get over Akira's static face in the OP lmao, he's seen some shit |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| Tengoku, come on! Yeah, baby, that's what I'm talking about. See? 100% intentional 3D and 2D mixing based on being a main character or not. I was right all along. |

| I really hate that annoying smoke effect filter they put in like 80% of the scenes. it literally makes it hard sometimes to even see what's on screen... who thought adding that was a good idea? scenes that don't use it look 100% better. by the way, wtf with that censored kiss? lmao |

| Ok, so exactly what were these so called "Ex_Arm" anyway? |
| such a good second episode 1/10 |
 |
| Let's be fair, the quality of the animation, art and photography increased a lot in this second episode: Look at this screenshot from a cityscape scene right here! so well done:  Ex-Arm is getting better every episode, please give it a second chance. |

| I wasn't expecting that kiss, just checked the manga for that panel and that scene looks good in the manga ngl. |
 |
| OK, the visuals are getting worst, the story and the dialogues too...still fun. This thing here is using some sort of protective charm against my boredom? |
| Story seems generic, animation is so bad that it's unreal and the pacing is atrocious. The priest arc was like 5 chapters in the manga. I genuinely feel bad for the original creator. |

| Tbh I was laughing at this episode For how god dam awful it is Especially the kiss scene And ik it was in episode 1 too But why tf did they do 2d in a 3D animation anime Like it looks like two animator working separately, One work on 2D and one work on 3D It’s a cluster fuck anime That what I call it |
Nina supporter for life💕 |
| Alma is hot, too bad this anime's visuals are complete trash in every aspect, "yuri" kiss was awesome, the story is just cliche cyberpunk story. |
 |
This got to be the only show which side character looks much better than the abomination of main casts. |
this shit was hilarious |
 |
| Another poor episode once again. It's such a shame how the anime completely throws out anything positive that the actual story has to offer. |
 |
| Yeah, a suicide bombing squad. What else could be worst than those scenario? Our shitty box called 00 now officially joined the counter team, because why not? Thats good. Not to mention a stupid censored kiss; goddamn poor fight action at the church and its silly direction (i mean, that priest was in front of them, why they need to search those shit again?); helicopter poor animation and its surrounding; then, the last damn thing, a sniping scene that looked a fuckin cut. I may be possible to write a full fuckin essay just to described how this episode really, something. However, i put my precious time into something else, and let the other peoples do their job to praising or even memeing this show. I am outta here. When Yggdrasil arrive? |

| HumanxRobot kiss was the most stupid censorship with light I've seen in a decade. I mean the kiss itself was already stupid and the censorship killed it. Edit: Manga doesn't censor that so gotta see who was the stupid one who censored that.  Also... that suggestive picture 1 minute after the censored kiss is also not censored and it looks even more Yuri so I don't know what they were even thinking. |

| I hate you,yes, i hate you even more than those marleys |
 |
| Wait. By sheer curiosity I read this arc in the manga and... this episode skipped A TON of stuff. Now I kinda get why people hate this. This arc had many interesting developments and the anime skipped them all. The adaptation of the story is Big Order levels of bad but also with bad CGI. |
My favorite scene :D |
| I am literally only watching for the “so bad it’s good” moments, but I don’t think there is enough to keep me going. Once I know how bad it is going in then it isn’t as enjoyable of an experience. It is painfully obvious how little the studio cared when making this. The plot is the most bearable part, but even that is bad (yet still miles ahead of the rest of the anime. |
| You know what is funny? The helicopters scene looks like the infamous CGI scene of Golgo 13: The professional, and that movie is 40 years old. |
  |
| Oh, my poor eyes! After seeing that many horrible faces, I'll be having nightmares tonight.... |
| They really censored a kiss? yeah this single handily might be the worst show I’ve seen, I’ve seen shit shows but each they had a few redeeming qualities but with this show I can’t seem to find one. The story is shit, the animation is shit, the characters are shit. I was watching this to laugh at how horrid it is but even with that it’s not worth the torture. |
