This episode is basically clickbait given how run of the mill the manga becomes but it's basically a perfect adaptation and what CSM xisters thought they were watching when they watched that MCU ahh anime of theirs.

What the fuck is this ahahahahah. Seriously I'm so glad I didn't watch all those trailers and announcements and all that so I went in and got a big surprise lol even the kid's name being the same as the name of the girl's crush was unexpected to me. Ghosts vs aliens what the hell lol. And ofc, the boy's voiced by Tanjiro and Luffy as the the turbo granny, I will never mistake those voices.

It's not anime, its a carton.
They butchered the greatness of the manga and the creepiness of the character designs of the ghosts.


The world is cruel, ugly and pitiful. Let's watch anime and make it colorful

The amount of action that happens all in one episode is crazy, with Dandadan being the most wacky show I've seen as of recent. While it may be offputting to some, I'm genuinely interested to see more with how Ken and Momo deal with their newfound powers & curses as well as the realization of the existence of the supernatural ghosts and aliens. S+ animation and the opening theme by Creepy Nuts matches the vibe of the show.

THIS IS A NEW RECORD!
i can't believe it's even possible to make me hate the entire show within 2 minutes!
auto hated the intro, auto hated the girls' introduction, already hated her character, and everything about her.
i don't mind the art style.
I HATE EVERY SINGLE FIBER OF THIS CURSED BULLY'S EXISTENCE .. I HATE COLD, BITCHY, SHITTY, DEMONIC, CURSED, SORRY EXCUSES FOR EXISTENCE .. YOU CALL
"TOUGH GIRLS" .. NOTHING TOUGH ABOUT THIS SHIT!

and the guy is completely insufferable..
6 minutes in and i'm already listening to it in then background ...
if this is how the show will go .. it's just a parody of other shitty shows..
8 minutes in ... dropped.

let me make myself clear .. I MANAGED TO WATCH 3 EPISODES OF "Gakkou no Kaidan / Ghost Stories"
BEFORE I DROPPED IT .. this SHIT! 8 minutes in , 1st episode .. it's already too much
15 minutes in .. am i watching southpark?! .......... i'd rather keep what's left of my brain cells.. bye.

Decent start. Don't like the OP, the comedy is pretty bad, is a shounen, you can't expect decent comedy in shounens. The animation is pretty good tho.

Also r*pe scene from 1st ep 🤔

7/10 for now let's see if the story will improve

Oh my god..... didn't expect Dandadan to be this absurd... gosh... but it's awesome and dope, really. I don't know how cool the art is in the manga, but I think this being adapted by Science SARU was the right decision. It's very pleasing to the eye. The colors are also vibrant and full of bold colors. Loved it!! Does this mean Ayase and Takakura will fight Turbo Granny to get back the stolen banana?

Btw no wonder the opening feels familiar, it's by Creepy Nuts~

Holy shit, that's great. I completely didn't expect most of the things that happened, and they were hillarious (And I've read the synopsis, which makes it even more surprising)

If the next episodes will hold the level of that, it'll be real hit.

To quote one of my favorite animated series:
I'm a simple girl from the countryside, I don't believe in aliens.
But I do believe in superstitions and magic.

I guess the hype was too big because I didn't like it that much, the idea for the plot is very simple but oh well...this anime will rely more on brilliantly animated action and vulgar jokes idk
The relationship of the main couple is not bad, ultra exaggerated and quite funny, it's nothing outstanding but it's probably enough for an anime that seems like John Wick anime (hearing opinions from the first 3 episodes) i.e. action, action and more action in a quite creative way.

Dandadan's here and from the first chapter I read, I knew this had potential to make it somewhere and now, the first episode is here. I'm just glad that a different kind of studio is handling a pretty hyped work in Science SARU and boy did this episode look absolutely gorgeous and was produced so well, especially in the second half when all the craziness took place. The sound design was sick as well, and the premiere did its job of leaving an impact and creating a hook with the world itself and all the potential chaos to take place afterwards. It was dumb, it's vulgar but in this instance, it has got charm. This premiere set the tone very well for the rest of the anime. By no means is it the greatest plot or story ever but a weekly watch where I can just be purely entertained every week after being suddenly super busy? Sounds like a great way to relax.

The opening sounds way too much like the Mashle S2 opening approach-wise, so would have wanted a more unique approach by Creepy Nuts but it is still relatively catchy in its own way. Do prefer that Mashle one though.

Wow, it's only the first episode but the anime is really good. The animation is beautiful, and both the story and the monsters are very entertaining. This is the first time I've watched a supernatural genre with a bit of horror, but the anime has already captivated me. I'm looking forward to the next episodes

Visually, the episode makes a positive impression. The soundtrack from the trailer was used in this episode, and it sounds really nice.
I wouldn't call myself a fan of this series(no plot, just action + fanservice), but I'll still watch at least the first season, cause it seems the Science SARU studio really did justice to the visual artstyle of manga.

There is an overarching plot through that leads to a ton of world building, new characters and a lot more. the fan service isn’t really too extensive.

I feel like newer animes and mangas focus on almost sexual scenes to push sales and story. Same with chainsaw man's manga.

Funny and good expresions from the characters, and it has better humor than I expected.
More focus on the expressions rather than the artistic beauty of it all.

The first episode came out! This anime has a huge potential and I was looking forward to watch it. Ghosts and spirits really exists after all and those mysteries need to be solved. Ayase-san and Occult-kun get along very well, except some conflicts.

One of the most awaited premieres of this year! Loved this episode, They really nailed the feel of the manga, Couldn't ask for a better adaptation tbh. This is AOTS stuff. I like how they went all out for the weird scenes and didn't tone it down.
Good stuff, Science Saru!

Science SARU putting out another banger! This was fun to watch, very similar vibes to Eizouken ni wa Te wo Dasu na!

Love the FL haha she's a blast. ED is also super catchy.

Saying that, this falls on the lewd side of things and I wish they didn't go that route. Shame.

This was so much more unhinged and entertaining than i had expected. This definitely has some FLCL vibes, but also some influence from other more modern series. Looking forward to watching the rest.

So if he has no penis does he have an opening for his uethra? Otherwise he'll quickly die from a bladder infection or something.
