I went into this not knowing anything, just that they had Creepy Nuts doing the opening, and it's about paranormal investigations which I love watching and binging. This has to be one of the best first episodes I have ever seen and can't wait to see more of the show this Fall season!!! |

| Wish I could have made this one happen on Thursdays but I decided to let the two cours stay day of and move the one cours to the next day, and also there’s no way I’m ever topping a thread for this show so might as well succumb to getting buried lol. But with that out of the way, wow man, just wow, they went absolutely insane on the art and animation for this bad boy right here, I don’t think I’ve seen anything from Science SARU since Eizouken back in Winter 2020 but holy shit they must have been abducted by aliens themselves because this looked phenomenal, if the whole show looks like this I feel kinda bad for everything else airing this season lol. I could talk about the animation all day but I gotta talk about the show too lol, and yeah I hadn’t ever heard of this before the leaks came out for it a couple months ago, but it was then I learned of the hype around this, and when I read what it was about I had a similar reaction to the way I felt about Oshi no Ko before it began, being that I was surprised it was so popular, it sounds like something that would be more like a hidden gem, but here we are and I can see why it’s got such a big following, it really is a cool blend of occult, sci-fi and romance, and I guess also battle shonen because of the big fight scene lol. And man those aliens and ghost grandma were quite creepy in design, but it’s just unfortunate any horror was lost because of the way the scenes played out, still tho this is kinda fitting for spooky month, always love when a seasonal I’m watching matches the time of the year. And the MCs Momo and Ken may be polar opposites but their moments together are already so good, it has me excited for what’s to come between them, also Momo is quite the hot waifu lol. And nice to hear Creepy Nuts on the OP, I’ve loved them ever since “Call of the Night” and this is another great jam by them, amazing visuals to go with it too. And the ED by ZUTOMAYO was also really cool, haven’t heard them since they did one of the Chainsaw Man EDs, that was one of my favorites too so I’m happy to hear them again. |
| Amazing first episode. Absolutely loving the opening as well. Can't wait to see 'that' form fully animated. |
| Seems pretty good minus the fanservice, even got me scared with that alien moving in the shadows. Will keep watching. |

| KINO IS IN THE HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| This gave me FLCL vibes loved the animation I felt like the it was going by quickly but it works for a series like dandadan I'm going to love this 10/10 |
| :) |
| What a whirlwind of an episode, with so many things happening I can't keep track... |
| WWWHHHHOOOO BOIII we eatin so GOOD folks!!!! I've been so psyched for this adaptation since I caught up on the manga a while ago (need to catch up again, wasaround 130 iirc?) the anticipation had been gnawing at me. So far I'm BLOWN away! Science Saru is nailing it perfectly so far, I can't wait for more. The dope gorgeous animation, fighting and flow, the characters are brought to life so well, and the banging as fuck tunes. Really hope the show catches on and does gangbusters well, more people need to see the wacky wild hype that is Dandadan. |

Ok, this was horrible, both the story and the animation. Why was there so much hype for this trash?

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.

| good stuff good stuff, Science Saru doesn't disappoint on this adaption reminds me a lot of Mob Psycho, has the same energy and maybe more so I'm staying |
| so cool to see this animated!!! definitely didnt expect either mc to sound like that lol. i also dont see why everyone is hating on the animation, its perfectly fine. feels kinda like kill la kill |
| Well, people are talking a lot about the shows first episode, so I got convinced to watch it aswell. Shouldnt read too much on this websites forum, haha. First episode was good, nothing too crazy. Its not sensational. I have seen a lot of first episodes that were minimum equally as good. Further episodes will of course determine how good the show really is. Because in my experience the first episode of an anime is often very good but later on it falls off. So I hope it wont be the case with this show so I dont need to regret starting to watch it and being influenced in watching it by random people on the internet haha. First episode was funny, I enjoyed it. The pacing was fast but thats in this case pretty good. Not wasting time and getting right into the action, setting the playground for the further episodes. Sexual content is a little too much for my liking, I hope it is getting toned down later on and remains mainly in the first episode to attract viewers. Since I dont like romance that much I can also go without that, haha. Animation is totally fine. The show reminds me of Zom 100 a lot, so I hope it wont wall off as much as Zom 100 did in the past. Looking forward for more. |
| wtf did I just watch |
| Luffy got isekaied and became a wiener gobbling turbo granny demon. |
| Very good first impression. The animation has a lot of frames. The story is original. It really draws you from the start to finish. I am falling in love with anime again! I hope it'll keep being that good. |
