What did I just watch. That wasn't just cinematic panty-harem (stupid censoring...)

The beginning and ending scenes were amazing. Too bad the rest isn't at that level, though it was somewhat amusing.

Airing in AT-X yet censored? Wow, that's just unreasonable.

This series looks pretty interesting. I think I'll play the VN while I still have the time. It looks like this will be good so I don't want to miss anything.

Also same char designer as monogatari series. I could see the resemblance all day.

God damnit they'll show a dude's ass multiple times but wont show tits. Wtf!!

Ok now that that's out of the way, the ending really surprised me. I thought it'd literally be an ordinary school life but with a handful of students and it'd roll with that, but that was unexpected. Kind of reminds me of Akuma no Riddle.

The ending was actually pretty great. Seems like a lot of fucked up things going with everyone in there, although it might had been a little too obvious since he's looking for an "ordinary life".

Amane though a++++, but the censoring lol, god damn it

I watched this without knowing anything about the VN and I must say I'm really impressed by this ep. I loved the cinematic presentation along with a balanced blend of plot, pantsu and suggested violence. Also it had some really unexpected camera choices with the two girls jumping on each other, along with the mix of visual styles on the blonde tsundere. I like these additions. For a second, I thought this was animated by Shaft but I guess that was just similarities with character designs.

The ending scene was really interesting and left me curious about what Grisaia no Kajitsu is actually about. This is no ordinary high school I've ever seen. The soundtrack was also amazing at the end. Can't wait for more.

This really has that harem visual novel bullshit atmosphere about it.
Is not that i can't watch it but i doubt this style will manage to make me at any point think this is a great anime.

BTw we just found Senjougahara's lost sister, lol but considering the show i doubt she will be even close as a good character.

Grisaia is very misleading at first glace. The main point of the series is not harem visual novel bullshit at all...

Whoa, wtf were those characters, a red head that can pick locks, a long hair brunette with murderous intent, a blond pig tails with some kind of whatever that is, a maid that can make bombs and a guy who I can tell if he is some kind of gov't ops or a member of ISIS?

The ISIS part is really overblown, but yeah, every character has something hidden in plain sight and will be shown only as the series progresses (Not even in this season, some parts also won't be shown in the female routes, heck, we'll find the whole picture only if all of the VNs get adapted).

They weren't kidding when they wrote "adaptation" of the VN. The scenes are very much reworked and altered with a mighty dose of fan service.

Well, Michiru is still best girl so I guess it'll be worth the time.

Man the animation, so smooth and movie-like! The atmosphere is completely different from your regular show, too. Gonna love it for sure.

We got some serious bro-service tho.

I love that acting tsundere girl xD "Tsundere girls must have blonde pigtails" Man I am gonna love her.

"Yes I won't cry." Lmao

That Amane undressing scene was so... weirdly realistic.

Man this anime is so otherworldly and epic, have no words for how much I liked it.

Now, episode 1: The intros were okay. The characters came across somewhat okay, I guess. The soundtrack is wonderful. Especially that track at the very end beginning when Yuuji wonders how she managed to enter still gives me the chills. Almost nothing made me laugh here though, the jokes felt very watered down. Well, the masturbation comment did...

Amane's breasts censored so hard seemed a bit off. I guess they compensated for being unable to show that with all the unnecessary pantyshots?

Hard to discuss without comparing to VN ;S

the panty shots are a necessity since there won't be any sex scene in the anime.

Michiru was so hyper I felt like I was having an anxiety attack the entire time she was on screen.

Yuuji seems chill as fuck so far. I like him.

No other opinions, really. It was an entertaining episode. Probably among the better "first episodes" I've yet seen from the season.

Why? School days was OK as a VN but they literally cut out everything resembling decent story it had then tacked on a mix of the worst endings to simply try and sell on shock value...

the VN's only redeeming point was that is was "almost" fully animated which is still a rarity in VNs... the anime version was just straight up the shittiest parts (not to mention still animated poorly)

comparing GnK to School Days is nothing but insulting it because the author of GnK could actually write past an elementary school level

Holy shit, this is pretty damn good based on the first episode. Actually this is the best one among those I have watched so far from this season (only watched what I thought to be mediocre so far). Gonna be putting this on hold until it's finished. From what I have seen here, it seems that 13 episodes will not be enough for this, I hope they give this more episodes and won't rush it.

At first I have a problem with Yuuji's lack of expression, but it becomes sorta understandable by the end, and it works better with his sexual harassment remarks. As for the girls, to be honest, nobody except for Michiru made an impression on me yet, not even the cutter girl. Michiru is so kawaii with her acts, but I wonder what's up with that. I somewhat like Amane, but she doesn't have much yet aside from showing her censored body (damnit I want it uncensored), so yeah..

The soundtracks are good too.

The only part I didn't like was the size of the frame, it's a bit smaller than the norm, and it's somewhat darkish, reminds me of SHAFT, though I am glad they are not the one doing it, especially not Shinbou. At least I thank God for that.

You sound like someone that needs to play Michiru's route in the VN. Don't let the anime spoil that amazing route for the best girl. If you think Michiru is amazing now... Well just see for yourself.

Finally a MC who doesn't get scared or freak out when seeing a naked girl.

Interested why Yumiko will never accept Yuuji.


The show started out a bit light with that teacher, and then as it neared the end of the episode, the show started to get a bit darker. I wonder if Yuuji has anything to do with that bus crash.

Yeah, damn it!!
Still, can't go back now......gotta finish this.
Holy shit at the end, though. I didn't know this Anime have the creeps. I started thinking that this looks pretty boring, but I changed my mind at the end.
Let's see what will happen now. Still, too bad I won't be seeing them titties.

Rewatching after completing the game and I have to say that even there are chara designs problems it's pretty good first episode. Finding a lot of little details here and there.

They managed to put in a lot of things. Bit spoilery if you ask me but good nevertheless. Seiyuus are the same and music too so it's fine when sound is mentioned. Animation-wise it's not so good and character arts are not on par of the game but I think it's enough to tell the story (still they did full animation of Sakaki getting up and turning around in front of Yuuji, almost like rotoscoped, that was nice).

I would say this adaptation is better when you played the game before though. As otherwise you won't get a lot of little details.

Eh, it didn't really feel like a smooth anime too me. Felt more like an awkward in-between of a VN and anime. I don't know why but it just didn't have the fluidity of a tv show, it just felt like a slightly more audio VN. I didn't finish all the routes though so i'm glad there will be some new content for me.

Wait wait wait wait. I picked this series because I am interested in the VN and decided to let the anime to give me a first impression (because usually anime is worse that VN). But that ED made things better... I mean whoa.. so our protagonist is a killer who is hated by all the girls??

And here I thought this is gonna be your typical harem school life drama. Damn I was wrong. Well Michiru seems cute with her tsundereness.
