Well, that was... geez, I'm not sure how to feel about this.

I'm slightly intrigued by the story, and I like the involvement of tarot cards and their designs. But that aside, the art style and character designs are so hideous it's pretty distracting. And I'm very worried that the dark nature the show might be just a cheap excuse to show little girls suffering for the enjoyment of sick fucktarded otakus. The scene where the 12 year old main character is choked by tentacles that are also slipping under her clothes is the biggest reason for my concern. :| Seriously, Japan... can't you keep your sick pedophile fetishism out of any magical girl shows anymore?

Well, it's still too early to judge, but I'm not sure if I was intrigued enough to keep watching past this episode.

2/5

Didn't know about this anime until just now. First episode and people are already dying.

OP was awesome.

I was a bit surprised that the people possessed get killed along with the Daemonia. And wow, time just rewinded itself and made it so Fuyuna never even existed...that's pretty damn dark and cruel. I hope there's some kind of explanation for that down the road.
You know, I've never liked characters that end up like Fuyuna just because they're envious/jealous of someone but I kind of hope that Akari remembers killing her at some point. I can't say I really care that much about Fuyuna since she got offed so quickly but I don't like Akari not remembering her either for some reason. I don't know...it just doesn't sit well with me. Even though the guilt would eat at her I feel like she needs to know that she (albeit unwittingly) killed her cousin. Or maybe she's better off not knowing. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING ANYMORE!

*ahem* It was an interesting episode overall. Going to keep watching the other episodes to see where this is going.

Well, after first ep I can't really tell what was going on in latter half of the episode. This may be good one but next time there better should be some explanations.

I didn't expect this end.

I am also confused by this. She killed her? It went on as nothing happened?

And what about that car accident earlier that day? Is this some kind of Madoka anime?

Edit:

And also this - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Stranger_%28novel%29
(plot of this book sister was holding is somehow related to this anime, it also starts with dead mother of main character.

This anime looks great. Reminds me of Madoka Magica with the dark twist.

It seems like I already made a post here but I just re-watched it. It still makes no sense but I wasn't that scared/sad about it this time though.

Awesome OP! Good enough ED!
Dat beginning OST! Then, BAM! Dark OST!

Akari is cute, but I'm still wondering about the plants in her room.
Fuyuna, Akari's cousin, has a hobby I wanted to know more about.
Aaaaand she's dead. And she's been erased from existence while the day repeats. Woah.

That truck scene felt like Final Destination to me.
Never trust old men.

But anyway, I like this episode even though I have unanswered questions. But I'll let time take care of that.
I though it was going to be happy, but then it took a dark turn. I'll continue on.
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

Is it me or did they say that it's the second anniversary of her mother's death and it's Sunday "again, just like that day"? Sasuga Japan, they probably use a different calendar.

Other than that, it was quite a promising first episode (maybe not great, but good/fun/above average for sure).

Just goes to show how much impact the OP and ED song plays for an anime.
Both are awesome and totally change my impression on the show.

I LOVE THAT OPENING SONG! <3
Well, after the first bloody scene I knew what other people must have felt when watching Madoka Magica for the first time. I got spoilered so it wasn't the same for me.
But this, well, left me like: :O, I thought it would be more play-around-like.
Because cute characters and all...
But actually, since Higurashi we know that cute characters don't indicate a cute story.
Liking this so far, even though it practically IS a copy of Madoka Magica.
I'm trying to find out what it does to deserve the low rating.

Great another anime with cards. I just finished Fantasista Dolls and that wasn't good. But this, this is was a goo start! Geez, it got dark and creepy. That's some Final Destination stuff right there with the car! Pretty good for a first episode! This first episode was better than all of Fantasista Dolls.

At first I was like: "lol is that a girl character with a guy voice actor?" But once Akari was getting strangled by the plant I was like: WTF??? I knew this show was dark but I wasn't expecting this...
