argilium said: wakka9ca said: from what i understood, they can still momentarily die but will not stay dead.. i mean, obviously, that old man got momentarily killed when a part of his head was gone but won't stay dead and can still move after some time.. people don't seem to be immortal after God has forsaken their world.. they just become restless dead or undead after momentarily dying once or however many times thereafter.. what seems to be the job of gravekeepers is to give them rest (and technically kill them completely).. i was trying to look for the easiest way for an entire village to momentarily die without their bodies destroyed, so i thought an epidemic could do it, but of course, it may be other things.. but then, they won't die permanently because no God and no active gravekeeper in sight (we don't count the girl as gravekeeper).. and my theory is basically just riding on what that white-haired guy is saying: that the entire village is deceiving the girl..argilium said: a bunch of (un)dead people in a village (possibly caused by an epidemic), It's not an epidemic. God has forsaken the world (read the title). Thus, no one can die or be born anymore. As a non LN reader, that's about what I thought. I get the impression that when they say 'can't die,' they really mean 'your body can die, but your soul cannot leave the body to go to heaven or hell. Thus, your body will reanimate, and be non-dead until a gravekeeper puts you to rest.' I also get the impression that even when gravekeepers bury someone, they don't release the soul from the body, they put the soul to sleep, permanently. Since God said heaven and hell were both full. In that manner, closer to 'cease to exist' than 'die.' White haired man doesn't seem to be any kind of agent though, from my impression, he's just looking for someone. For some reason, the 'real' gravekeeper at the end is traveling with him. From the scent our resident loli caught of her 'mother' we can guess that the villagers were all 'dead' already, and so the white haired man may have killed them because he sees it as a mercy of sorts. Then, when he does that, his gravekeeper companion buries them. Hence why she wasn't with him when loli followed him, she was doing a 'real' burial for the villagers. The scent also explains why perfume, cuz corpse stench. But then loli also says she likes mother's natural scent, so loli likes corpse stench? I also feel that the epidemic theory of yours doesn't fit. It feels more like the bodies of the people in the village may have died naturally. But then, they don't look old. But then, some look older than others. So, a little confusing as to how they died, or if they were all dead. |

| Interesting start, and pretty promising. Also, DEM LOLIS. Jesus, there are loli everywhere in this season. |
 |
| Undoubtedly the best anime this season. Excellent concept, the animation and soundtrack flow very well with the setting, and the characters are utilized particularly well. There are a few elements that are left with a bit too much ambiguity (such as the way everyone dies and whatnot), but I'm sure they will have a better explanation later on. Loved the OP, the ED is not too bad either, and Hampnie's VA was brilliant (he acts the role amazingly well). I have to say, this definitely exceeds my expectations. |
| After PhotoKano I was hoping for a return to glory again for MadHouse, this wasn't bad per se but it already feels like another loli show, the model for the MC looks like it was ripped strait out of Oda Nobuna. The story seems to have some potential though so I'll keep watching for now. |
 |
| This has potential, the opening looks very generic and shit but the plot is interesting. Please take the serious route and don't go retarded easy mode comedy nonsense. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| Probably the most interesting first episode of the summer for me. Certainly intriguing. |
 |
| I haven't read the manga adaptation yet so I have no clue why are the manga readers are so disappointed with this episode. To be honest, I thought it was great. It didn't felt rushed for me at all. Another series with a lot of potential to be the best this season. The art and animation was great. I don't get why are people complaining about the art. Madhouse did a great job. Sure Photokano was bullshit but this is different. One thing I didn't like though is the mild censorship. Well, there's no really censorship but the brutal things were always either slightly blurred or too bright. The story telling was good. What I don't get is why did he killed the villagers? Because the world is too crowded already? Why didn't he kill the MC? and why is that the MC kinda forgave him already? My first thought about Ai is she looks like Nobuna lol. She's certainly cute. Plus Aki is voicing her. I love the ED song. Best ED song this season? Great episode overall, can't wait to know the rest of the characters. |
| Not impressed. It was slightly interesting though, so I'll give it another episode before I decide to drop it or not. |
  |
| I haven't read the light novel or manga adaption of this series either, but it didn't feel rushed at all. I loved the pace and it was very intriguing. I'm definitely continuing this series. |
| i thought the pacing was rather boring lol will keep watching for a while tho |
| That was interesting. will watch this. |
| man this season is disappointing ~_~ average episode gonna watch a few more and decide whether I'll drop or continue. never liked loli animes to begin with..... unless it is madoka >.> |
| Great episode I like the OP song |
| Interesting. I think the manga readers got confused from reading this a long time ago. I decided to check out the manga, and as far as I can tell, this episode covered chapters 1-6 perfectly. It is true that they mention the when God abandoned the world in the manga and have her wonder once whether she is a grave keeper or not, but I was still surprised as to how close the manga and episode resembled each other. Seeing as some of the stuff being cited is later in the manga, that is, past chapter 6, I'd say that we can't say for sure that they've toned down or removed anything. (Not going to read further in the manga, since I'd rather not spoil the next episode for myself.) Edit: It is true that the art style seems pretty different though. Then again, I wonder how the manga's art compared with the LN's. (Haven't checked.) I imagine that this would bother the people that have read the manga, but then again, that's why I try not to watch any anime I've read or read any manga that I've watched. |
| The story was pretty interestinG, but the pacing was boring. |
 |
| hee... not really bad at first episode (7/10) ai is so CUTE! XD hambart is so badass :3 damn.. that oji-san is like a zombie -_- I kind of curious about this.. :/ what is this? :/ I still not really understand about this anime.. btw, in the end ai is not really gravekeeper :/ and the true gravekeeper is show up.. hee.. cute gravekeeper -_- |
| loli abuse lol it looks interesting will continue |
 |
| Pretty amazing! I was glued to the screen throughout the episode, I enjoyed listening to the dialogue. Also, I think it has stunning art with beautiful soft tones all contrasted with such a grim premise. It's everything that I like and it stars a loli to boot. Fantastic OP and ED song, I'm really interested to know more in the following weeks and hope it doesn't fall short. |
| Haven't read the the manga,so don't know what people are complaining about.Wasn't that interested but will still continue watching.The animation was nice & the loli heroine was moe.Also really liked the OP,but didn't like the ED as much. |
| Looks pretty interesting but i'm annoyed with the loli's voice :S Will continue to watch this...4/5 |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Watched the first ep yesterday. Was pleasantly surprised by the colouring and main male character. The story was a bit messy, but it seems promising and I'm looking forward for the next episode! |
| That was a very nice ED. The first episode looks good so far but I don't know how it compares to the rest of the summer shows as this is the first I've started. But from what I can see with this one, I'll probably enjoy this. I get a Kieli (another LN) vibe from this show for some reason. |
   |
| Why censored...? |
| One of the more intriguing anime series in a while~ Will definitely be following this one in hopes of a good show. ^__^ |
| Wow... Pretty interesting... Liked the OST and ED. yourass said: "Hambart is as much of a dick as I remember, at least" are you serious? http://mangafox.me/manga/kamisama_no_inai_nichiyoubi/v02/c007/24.html I'm sure there's nothing like this in the anime Scar suppose to look more heartless than kind-heart lady. http://mangafox.me/manga/kamisama_no_inai_nichiyoubi/v02/c007/12.html http://mangafox.me/manga/kamisama_no_inai_nichiyoubi/v01/c004/12.html Anime look totally stupid and pretentious compare to manga staff probably thinking that they're making Rokyu-bu or Milky Homes that's not what this story should be look like. I feel like watching anime for kids under 10 yrs. The story should be more cruel and dark Another terrible anime that waste good material, although the animation is good. Woah, I didn't expect it's like that... |
| This was all right. Nothing too special, but it's interesting enough. I felt bad for Yoki and Anna. They were sweet people. I feel like little gravekeeper didn't react as much as I would expect to the murders though. Weren't they the people she'd lived her whole life with? Anyways, I'll keep watching, but so far this is just meh. Oh, and for some reason, I kind of like the Hambart guy. xP His snarkiness is kinda funny. I loved that bickering conversation little gravekeeper and him had before she saw the bodies; it was cute. Oh, and as someone else mentioned earlier, the MC just looks like a younger verson of Oda Nobuna. Like, exactly lol. Although she's not a tsunderekko. ;) |

| So Kami-sama can't make another world or heaven or just destroy Earth once and for all? What an irresponsible god if you ask me. Bleached dude is an asshole. Well, I can say it's okay for now. Not much of an interesting start for me |
Alone on a Friday night? Remember that DIO did nothing wrong! |
| Wow, that was pretty amazing to say the least. I didn't expect anything like this. I love the character designs and the OST. Must've been hard for a girl that young to deal with all that happening. I wonder where the story is going though, seems really interesting. Definitely gonna keep watching! From reading the posts here, seems like a lot of people who read the manga/LN are pretty p'd off about this series though... |
| it feels off but at the same time i really liked it and am curious as to where its gonna go from here Shih said: Really? Cause this episode was pretty damn dark. I'll be really disappointed if it doesnt stay like thatThe story is definitely not cruel and dark. |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| Thats one weird as setting this anime has o.o EDIT: Seeing some manga pics -.- Seems anime is softened alot... I do really despise censors -.- |

| Pretty interesting but I felt like the story it's a bit rushed |
 |
| What an unoriginal premise. A world where nobody dies? Bleach already did that ages ago. |
 |
| See because of loli. |
| Trying to figure this world out here. So the concept is there is no death in this world. And yet there are gravediggers. And a man kills everyone in the village. One of the people killed gets back up and even holds a conversation with Ai. We're quick to call him a zombie, but he seemed to act like a normal human being--just missing a chunk of his head is all. So is this how it is then? If you blow someone's head off entirely, they are essentially dead (as in their bodies no longer move, since they have no brains)--but their souls need to still be put to rest, which is done by some magical power the gravediggers hold? Now, about Ai. She's just a little kid, which seems to imply that children can still be born--but the narrator's exposition said otherwise. Humpney Humbert implied that gravediggers just appear out of nowhere (God's last miracle, yes?), so that offers an explanation of sorts--but then he says Ai is not a gravedigger at all? Why would he say that, exactly? Does this mean all the villagers she buried weren't legitimately buried? Just trying to work out the nature of death, un-death, and sealed death in this setting, and what significance the gravekeeper actually has. In theory understanding this would shed light on Humbert's actions. But I'd also like to figure out what death would mean to the average person in this setting. How long has everyone been alive for, and how do they feel about living for hundreds, thousands of years? Ai at least is very upset about the villagers being killed, so there's still value placed on each person's life, but what constitutes normal life in this world? I suppose we'll find out more in episodes to come, but I feel a bit too confused at the moment. |
| I don't like the sound of this censor talk D: Might have to check the manga out if the anime censoring is that bad. |
 |
| Mind blowing. Incredible line-up this season. Now that they seemingly cut the crap on all this worthless harem anime, the overall quality of the season gets significantly better. hora, ganbareba dekiru ja nai. |

I feel like watching anime for kids under 10 yrs. The story should be more cruel and dark Another terrible anime that waste good material, although the animation is good. To be fair, two of the three pages you just linked are from scenes that take place in next episode. So they aren't accurate comparisons as of yet. And on top of that, linking them goes against the whole "do not discuss the manga beyond this point" policy which anime adaptations have on this site. So yeah, try to hammer those things out of your head until the next episode airs. Now, onto the episode itself... The censoring on the head did look a bit distracting to me, have to admit that. And yes, the pacing did seem a bit off, even if I can't really tell why that is (mainly because I've only recently started to pay attention to it due to Texhnolyze). Having said that, I still have high hopes for this. I mean, this is still only the first episode. Drawing too many conclusions on it would be stupid. PS. Do keep speculating. It's enjoyable to read, |
