Cute characters and a morbid side. Two things that can make an anime awesome if well developed. I will give it a try! It gives off a madoka felling..

So, this is another C: The Money of Soul and Possibility Control. That's actually great, I loved that anime. To be more precise it seems like a combination of C and Madoka.

Looking forward to the next episodes.

It would be so funny is Tema turned out to be a boy so I'd have a true excuse to say: "You've activated my trap card" >:D

Not too big of a fan of the over-used "Card game" Theme (Really hope there is no raising of the fist, and overly dramatic shouts) But, it was still pretty good, and there was already a nice hint at a slightly darker atmosphere to this series already. (Really want to see the reasons as to why it is R17+)

So, I'm going to stick with this series for the time being.


PS. Love the music.

Love this!

Amazing backgrounds, look very handdrawn thanks to the grittiness.
great soundtrack.
I also love how they made it possible to advertise a TCG to girls thanks to the power of moe.

Steins Gate director? Mari?
I bet this has some good melodrama potential.

The tone is already amazing depressive and serious. Finally a serious anime in the sea of lol random comedy shit.

Whaaaaaat?? Since when is the card game theme overused??? That's a genre that's is so untouched. This anime is totally fresh for me. How many decent card game animes have we seen in the last couple of years? This actually has some kind of RULES, not just random getting out cards out of your ass, throwing them in the air and shouting FIGHT !! Most pseudo-card-game-animes are just like z/x ignition or fantasista doll where you can't follow a rule.

After a careful thought we can see that Cardfight!! Vanguard is one of the few actual card game animes out there which is decent. I don't think that Selector Infected WIXOSS is clichéd just because it's a loli card game.

It looked okay? A lot of Madoka vibes, but that was to be expected, though I really hope that it won't be a yu gi oh + madoka hybrid lol. Music was okay, Tama was annoying, the animation was rather weak at times, overall looked average for a first episode. I will keep watching because this is one of the anime series that I was anticipating and hope it gets better from now on.

Huh, that was ... interesting. Didn't really know what to expect going into this tbh XD
OP and ED were both OK ... I quite like the art style though. I mean, the character designs are all right but the backgrounds were very nice :D
Some crazy dreams and the tower being a pillar to destroy the city ... uh, okay there O_O
Haven't really watched any card game battles since YGO, so this was interesting ... an avatar and you get to become an "Eternal Girl" if you keep winning? I kind of expect Tama to talk more as she "powers up" too, so to speak. Yuzuki was pretty interesting, though I mean trying to get Ruuko to battle when she doesn't even know the rules ... I'm surprised she agreed to it, tbh :S Looks like the former's wish has something to do with her twin brother ...? Uh, judging by the blushes, there's only one thing I can think of, really ... lol :P
Anyway, fast friends and inviting over to Ruuko's place (CAKE!) where she offers to lose ... I mean didn't she just find out she could only lose three times?! Though I guess she doesn't really "care" at this point ... well she will I bet :P
Oh well, looks like more of the charas will be introduced next time. I also love their school uniform's skirt XD Nice little pattern :)

Wasn't expect much from it since the score is below 7, but it was actually pretty good. It feels a little like madoka magica, It definitely has a potential.

I really liked the music.

Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.

Fantasista Doll was bad, but this looks promising, especially when I compare the first episode of those two shows.
I kept thinking about Fantasista Doll as well. So far this first episode has already done more for me than that entire series.

@ Episode - an intriguing start to an equally fascinating show. It seems like a fairly standard first episode, but there was a lingering feeling of darkness that came with the dreary art and Ruko's nightmare. Tama has already won me over, she's extremely adorable and it makes my heart melt, but I also get the feeling that she's gonna turn out to be a bloodthirsty psycho.

I really liked how they handled the interactions between Ruko and her brother, yay for not ramming unnecessary incest into it. Although speaking of which, Yuzuki on the other hand...

I can't imagine how this will get too dark.
I mean there's no real punishment, even if they loose, right?

In C Control they actually lost real life stuff if they lost a game.

Even I know they're going to do something, but I hope it's not going to be something silly.

I could imagine stuff like being consumed by darkness or being turned into a card.
Also, probably this "eternal girl" thing isn't as awesome as they make it out to be.

What, so she loves her brother?? Tama means balls, right??

But the protagonist is a little clueless and the other one is going to earn my hate.

Yu-Gi-Oh with little girls, pretty boring so far. Don't see any Madoka aspects here. Music is bad as well. Characters look very stereotypical but the animation is good though. The name of the card game is very silly if you know German. I'm gonna give it a chance anyway and watch more episodes.

Hmm... I'm not entirely sure how I felt about this anime. Of course, I was also playing "Pengle" when I watched it. As many have commented before, it does remind me of C: The Money of Soul and Possibility Control and a little bit of Angelic Layer.

The grandma seems like a badass. I'm sure that she knows something more and Ruko's brother... I feel like something bad is going to happen to him. Of course, the episode seemed a bit... quick. So much information. HA HA!``

Tama is cute but her voice is so... annoying. I have mixed feelings whenever I see her character.

I would add pictures to this but there was nothing that seemed to jump out at me.

I'm at a "meh" for the first episode, but I've never been one to just quit an anime so here's to hoping that I can like it a little bit more``

Not bad I suppose. Ruuki and Tama, a newbie of the card game. Let's see how this goes.

Also a new friend that is in love with his twin brother? Whoa.

I have no idea why the twin is into her bro but hopefully it's relevant to the story.

Tama's design looks nice, especially when she 'grows' but I just hope she doesnt keep making that sound, could get annoying after a while.

But, nice first episode, love the animation and the music.

Okay first episode, I could see this show turns out into something similiar like Madoka Magica. Which means there is probably gonna be a shit tons of wasted potential, but for now I'll keep my expectations next to none for this series.

I like the MC girl, but I don't really like the rest of the cast. My first impression so far, it could change.

Interesting. The dream foreshadows, that there is more to it, than it seems at first sight.

The wish of the other girl is quite obvious.

I'm curious, how this turns out. The battle scene was nice.
