Awesome first episode. Love the visuals presented in this first episode. Story is building up so I can wait for the overall plot to be revealed. Hope it stays good until the end.

I decided to check this anime out after seeing a bunch of people freaking out about it on my tumblr dash.

Eeeehhhh.. So far I think it'll just be one of those anime that thinks it's way cooler than it actually is. That, and shounen-ai fanservice which ain't my thing. I'm not gonna drop it quite yet, but I probably will in the end.

And seriously, nekkid neko-girl seems like she'll be one hell of an annoying turd of a character. :c

I was laughing my ass off throughout the entire thing. I really enjoyed the mood they pulled off in the school scene, but this show takes itself way too seriously.

It is like the "cool" kid coming to school in parachute pants and aviators, barely holding in a huge grin while thinking of how awesome everyone must think he is.

This was a very unsatisfying first episode. The pacing was off, they tried way too hard to be cool and failed miserably. I already hate the MC and if they turn this into BL I'm out. I expect this to become the next train wreck. 2/5.

First episodes tend to be good,and it would be really hard for them to screw it up,let's see if they can keep it up for the rest of the series.

The animation is really good, but I don't know...I'm not so excited about the story. The only thing I liked the entire episode was the the cat on the MC's shoulder and the cleaning robots (LOLed with them). But I will try 2 more episodes after dropping it... :S

The english scenes were a little unnecessary in my opinion. So far this anime is really great, i'm enjoying the art style quite a bit, hopefully the plot is on par with the animation!

That skateboarding guy is already annoying as fuck. The art is really sweet
Story seems shitty though.

4/5 for this ep alone
6/10 for the show and what I expect from it so far,

I have a very good feeling about it!
Even though the first episode was very confusing to me, I'm sure that everything'll be clear in the next episodes. Can't wait for that. The art was really amazing!

Got curious from the trailer about a month ago and decided to watch the first episode.
Not much has happened so far. But their fight scenes look promising for the future.
I'm not 100% sure if its from a manga, but since there will be 13 episodes I hope nothing is rushed..which is a far fetched wish.. .__.

It's similar, but has a noticeable difference from the PV/trailer song, I like it better.

I didn't catch the story so far... why it's a shoujo if there are 95% boys? I hope it does not go into shounen-ai...

Great animation, unexpected image quality. I can't judge it just yet, but I give 5/5 to the first episode because now I'm interested. Some similarities with Durarara!!

Was there actually ONE fight scene in this ep?

All I remember is two energy fields clashing, and a simple punch to the ribcage.

I hope nobody hates me for saying this:

First episode didn't impress me. This MAY change as the show continues, but I'll just say it as I feel now.
The art was beautiful and the camera angles were great! But other than that nothing stood out to me.

I didn't like most of the characters. Yashiro was irritating, not only was his voice a bit too squeaky and whiny for my taste, he also had many scenes that I felt weren't necessary or seemed...odd. Such as him being a meat-eater and spending 5 minutes of the episode walking around and getting food from people.
Only redeeming part of his character was the very end where he says that the person on the screen appears to be him...as though it's a question. I'd love to see more of THAT Yasiro.

The battle toward the end grabbed my attention briefly, but didn't hold it.
I'm honestly not sure why, but it wasn't as exciting as I was hoping it would be.

I'm hoping my opinion of the show changes later on! I really do hope that this show picks up (for me) and that it will be good!

They might want to add "Shoujo" and "Shounen-ai" to the genre.... Kinda disappointing that this is going to be a yaoi anime..... well at least we got Btooom and Zetsuen to make up for this......
And by the way their English was horrible.... even the Japanese viewers were making fun of it

Haven't seen all the ep1's yet, but I thought Shinsekai might have the best camera, atmosphere, art, & music. Zetsuen with best animation, characters. But K's definitely better in animation, characters, camera, and competitive in the others. Even bg crowds have quite some detail, some high budget stuff.

The buildings & metro atmosphere felt very alive, probably due to nice POVs, glowing reflections that break up the typical still-bg look.

Story: from ep1, seems like some red vs blue king, then red tries to kill a colorless king, Yashiro, who's either misidentified or plays Borne Identity. So 3 kings of 7 are introduced. But what are they fighting for exactly?

Genres seem like bishounen/ai, action, lite comedy, yakuzo, & engrish

Pretty insane, I have to say. The premise kinda reminds me of Guilty Crown, along with all-so-similar art style and animation. I suppose this'll turn out to be an insane show like Guilty Crown, too, but nonetheless, I'll keep watching because, well, it sure as hell is interesting.

Sorry, but the only character I see that's the same is the Shizuo look alike. No one else is really like anyone in DRRR. I think the reason it's similar is because it has the same atmosphere as DRRR.

I agree, while there seem to be some parallels to Durarara, I dont think that is a copycat.

That said, I hope thatthe plot moves along quickly. I can appreciate the first episode being a bit mysterious to try and increase view interest but I hope that confusion doesn't become an important part of this show.

Drrr!, Fullmetal Alchemyst, D.Gray-Man and many more - they are there. However, if the team makes a good job, it would be pleasurable, although not a good anime itself, it can be a nice time spend in front of he monitor for all fans of some of these anime.

I, personally, was enjoying ep 1 a lot. Hoping that Neko won't be too much to handle and that I won't get mad at all the copying that is definitely present. WIll have to wait for 3 eps and see.
