@IhnalakoKaina It starts with ignorance and turns into stupidity. You have no idea what you talking about, don't know anything about subject matter and you're assuming things to justify pathetic attempt of insulting me. Congratulation, you are officially a dumbass.

Looks like this'll be one of 2 edgy dark fantasies, and unlike a certain other one involving dragons, this actually leans into the edge. Hopefully this actually embraces the 14-year-old mindset without diluting it with shonen tropes. Unfortunately, currently, this sucks ass. Poor direction, animation, and coloring.

huh? what is it that I don't know about? is it not what you said that you're dissapointed that they didn't depict the execution with more detail?

I know what I'm saying. goblin slayer manga actually had graphic nudity and rape, and the adaptation "censored" it as much as posible. The meat shields, the goblin flashbacks and the first blood boiler, they used obscuring and different camera angles to not show the details but still show what happened.

But in this case, the adaptation is actually pretty consistent with the manga, which doesn't actually have any explicit nudity. The question is, why do you feel the need to see that? Do you not understand that you're meant to be upset and disgusted at such event? what else should you be called if you don't but an edgy freak?

Animation sometimes looked off to me and some things were kinda hard too take seriously like the fact that you can open all cells just by telling the phone to do it(although it was funny when she was imitating the voice) but this still hooked me. Chloe execution was brutal, kinda saw it coming but man why did they have to kill her off so fast already, I liked her. Cool setting and the fridays are just looking better and better.
@redorzo

Same sentiments with the animation. Feels like I'm watching a slideshow.
That's what she said.

Lmao that was just bad. They really tried so hard to be dark and edgy with all the gore and semi rape it just becomes hilarious, not to mention the very stiff animations and lazy directions throughout as expected from a no name studio.

On the plus side, great soundtrack, both the op and ed are great, also surprisingly some interesting world building. What a shame, gotta have to drop this one, lots of other better shows to watch this season.

There is a reason explained in volume 3 of the manga why Humanity wants to eradicate witches. Also Humanity's fear of witches reminds me of what the USA nearly did to China in the past: the Americans feared that China would prevent them from dominating the world in the future. An extremely famous American general wanted to exterminate the whole of China using nuclear bombs. In the end, the President of the United States did not agree to do this. It could have been an act of unparalleled monstrosity.

The anime adaptation is cool, but unfortunately it's censored compared to the manga. But I'm really glad that the manga get even more love. It was already a million seller but it will do way better than this. :-)

We've always seen magic fiction but it's rare to see a mix of magic and science fiction together (that works), and we do get one they feel like they're always losing something, like things doesn't flow well, but here, I feel like it does and they make sense.

This is just intense, 1st episode and we got a taste on how this anime would be, edgy and can be really uncomfortable. Honestly, it feels simple enough and some things were a bit predictable (Chloe checking every death flag in the BINGO list), but I dig it, really looking forward the next episode.

Reply to HominiLupus
Is this supposed to be comedy? There is no world build or exploration for the conflict beyond humans are natually evil. The scene with the girl being humiliated and killed was probably the most laughable attempt at creating sympathy for a character I've ever seen. This was surely written by a 14 year old going through his edgy phase
@HominiLupus lol exactly how I felt watching. This was trash, and not even the good kind.

classic humans falling into greed and power ego biting the hand that feeds & helps them.
Now having technology, giving the finger to god and the witches. Also how did they even make a machine that nullifies magic that too as powerful as chloes yet to be explained.

Speaking of chloe even though her screentime was short, i liked her character funny, wholesome, strong headed, responsible plus kept a brave face for adonis and was a teacher and mother figure. Really didnt deserve that brutal death that too infront of the one she cared about the most, atleast she got to have some final words with him. Adonis had the worst, being helpless and powerless as his beloved one brutally murdered infront of him, made to watch, desperately writing magic without no use.

The king was even further weird and stupid, admits the witches helped them and now being chased the very same people. Also i am kinda sus how all this situation is panning up like if the king is being controlled and manipulated, he did kinda looked emotionless like a puppet and also the red haired lady with the blind fold things on her beside him also looks really suspicious.

The after scene was i think after some years of chloes execution, the humans have turned on each other as expected after the witches are no longer there. Wars and more chaos erupting, prisoners being held especially kids going into prostitution and other things like slavery i suppose. We have a new character doroka, whos positive, kind also really humorous , i liked how she did the voice imitation. She does kinda have chloes qualities, so she might be the one going to be at adonis's side being his support and partner to exact his revenge. As for adonis hes finally awoken and looks all grown up wonder how he survived being locked up in a tomb like a mummy after so long. But looking at his expressions he hasnt forgotten anything.

Also one more thing the gods prophecy being narrated that the humans will turn up agains witches but you have to be friendly and peaceful with them otherwise darkness will envelop the word, so with now adonis set on the path of revenge against them, wonder how this story will go with the narrative. But anyways really looking forward to it and the revenge as well. i personally love revenge stories

That was infuriating. Like holy shit man pissed me off so much. Knew Chloes was gonna die but that was too much. Ungrateful people biting the hand that fed them and it led to what? War among themselves. Get eradicated, deserves it.

keep in mind, this basically what happens in real life

From this one episode, I can already tell that this is going to be one of the better shows this season. They wasted absolutely no time in getting to the story, the animation is good and the characters are good so far too.

Magic and technology are not something that are normally put into a story together, so this could be pretty interesting. Love how they've done it so far.

Can't wait until next week's episode.

death to all witches

@GangsterCat Cross Ange was the immediate parallel I thought of.
This one doesn't seem like it's going to be nearly as entertaining, unfortunately.


As for the episode itself, seems pretty mediocre/bad

It's a good, intense first episode. If anyone thought this premiere was intense, stick around because it will be a wild ride.

The first episode is relatively tame to the events that are to come. I want to see how this anime adaptation will pan out, so I am here for it, no matter what.

I know many things can be subjective, but this wasn't all that good of a start as people here claim it was. Ending was super-rushed and lacked impact because of it. Not to mention plot conveniences. Am going to keep watching only because am a sucker for anti-heroes and revenge type shows, but it's not promising if first episode is to go by.

@Hritikvaish_77
In the manga you can see that humans raped some witches because they are what they are : humans. It wasn't on the episode so at least they kept the humiliation that Chloé lived before dying.

And I agree with @-Saphiran-, the violence of the manga is a good way to understand Adonis' vengeance and actions. That goes to every mangas I love like Berserk, Gunnm, Akira, Übel Blatt etc...

When I started this I was not expecting any of this and I’m loving it although let’s be honest I think we all expected what happened to her.
I find the concept of portraying a modern world with superior technology to ours but there culture is still that of medieval interesting to watch but kind of odd.
I’m genuinely glad I gave this a chance and can’t wait for ep2
