Wow, intense!
Nai is so cute!

THE ART! Just so... outstanding. This year's art is really intense. Amazing.

5/5 for this episode

Dat was awesome, just as I expected from the Manga. The transformation was so fucking gross I was cringing at the cracking sounds. Loved it. First impression = 9/10.

Oh, so they actually have a point? Well then, he can keep them then. I just thought it was a stupid artistic choice. :P

I watched Circus' release on this (quite the fitting fansub name for this anime lol), because they had a DDL and Anime-Koi's torrent was taking too long for me because too many leechers to seeders bleh. They do scanlations for the manga too and I liked their script so I think I might stay with them.

That asides, the first episode was great ; _____ ;. I really like the seiyuus, especially Tsukumo AGHHHHH she is so perfect asldfajsdf just and that sneak peek of Yogi at the end. I really like how it's going so far so can't wait for the next ep already!

I'm really intrigued by the world Karneval takes place in. Very off kilter take of a Eastern Europe kind of setting with dashes of fantasy.

I really don't know what to make of it. Seems interesting. I will continue watching it and see how it goes!

Also if you guys could check out my first impressions video that would be great it is only short. I tried quite hard to make it so any comments and feedback would be great!

I liked the artwork put into this and the balance with the animation seemed solid. I hope this doesn't disapoint, i'll put my trust in all these hyped comments i see from fans who already know what's coming, from reading the manga!

i'm waiting for this anime since so many months. and the first episode was pretty nice. a lot of mysterious stuff happened, a lot of interesting characters, the animation was beautiful, so yeah, i really enjoyed it :)

but i have to admit i'm a bit scared that this will turn into one of these anime that have pretty animations and pretty characters, but that's actually it. please don't disappoint me, karneval.

You need to learn to know when to say that correctly. Doesn't make him a "Homophobic" for not wanting yaoi.

Well this is going to popular isn't it?

Still, a show filled with Bishies, that's always a good sign!

Oh yeh, plot.... it looked kinda silly, but who cares?

Now, I haven't read the manga yet, and I blindly walked into this anime without really understanding more than the summary paragraph on the page. But, I really enjoyed the first episode.

However, I have a feeling that this could eventually become a favorite of mine! The art style looks wonderful; the way the eyes are animated look amazing as well as the hairstyles and character movements. The soundtrack is catchy too, the ending song was somehow fitting and each song fit with the circumstances.

I know this is a lot to say after just the first episode, but I believe that this is going to be a very promising anime! :)

i read the manga - i definitely prefer that better
there are some strange changes in the story...

in fact,about the seiyuus im the most pleased with the choice for nai
but gareki also not bad.
ono for hirato a bit strange...but its ok

what i wonder why nai got ears?? (or it is just his hair,but it definitely look like that..)

Apart from the main character (Nai), who seems pretty weird to me, I liked everything about the first episode. Already looking forward for the next one.

Well Gareki was cool.

Everyone else is.. um... need more episodes. Might be dropped. Reminds me of that sparkley eyed Amensia anime. Sparkley eyes anime kind of are my signal to drop it at this point.

Whilst it has bishies wearing extravagant clothes like in Amnesia, it doesn't have that fucking useless protagonist, I mean, even if the protagonist here isn't that good, at least he seems to be able to speak.

Though like the Amnesia protagonist he seems to be the target of forceful advances, and also the same theme of jail. Shackles, cage, I think they have a similar theme anyway.

I think they threw too much at the audience in this episode to be honest, I don't expect to understand everything that's going on right from the start, but it was unnecessarily confusing.

It was... perfect! The animation, the chara desing and, above all, the seiyuu! And the ending by Kamiya and Miyu Irino is beautiful *-*
I just hope the won't mess up >.< I know it's soon to think about thins kind of thing, but I'm so used to see good manga ruined by a bad adaptation... and Karneval is too good to be ruined.

Anyway, next episode it's Yogi time *-* can't wait >.<
