Man this sucked.

The cgi was awful, the voice actors are terrible and half the episode was a sort of torture porn.

Not once did it real to the main character until the end it was it’s own thing, biggest disappointment of the season.

So far i'm having trouble connecting with the story and characters. The antagonist is alright but Inuyashiki is so damn boring. Also for some reason the deaths seem comedic, anyone else fell this way?

Hiro is as much as a main character like Inuyashiki. This episode is an introductory episode to introduce him. You'll see him a lot, even more than the old man himself. His voice was actually very fitting and I will not replace him for anyone.

I feel like Im missing some very important information, and because of this a lot of things just feel arbitrary.

1) Why was the kid out in the part with the old dude in episode 1? Where did he even come from and why was he there?

2) What made the kid come to the conclusion that the best way to make sure he was still alive was to go and kill a family?

That doesn't Change the fact it painted him touturing a family to death with product placement. It was really hateful and my interest in the series is close to zero. The last episode had a group of 8 people decide lol let’s murder a homeless man just cause. It’s trying way too hard to make is hate him.

The voice actors do suck, they have no range no variance in tone. They sound very monotone when voice acting.

They were going for realism, the voice actor for the main character this episode talks like an actor in a live-action rather than a VA. But I agree that this sacrifices vocal expressiveness, and to us used to anime Japanese it sounds weird and off-putting.

This character's VA is sort of ok considering the above, but Inuyashiki's really sounded like he was just reading the script.

Like when you are playing with ants...

Man, they really made great antagonist... I guess that right in the last episode then. And I'm calling it now but he probably starts dating his daughter at some point, things get messy soon. Someone probably tries to mimic Death Note for sure but this is even more brutal.

The real question her would be if the main protagonist ever kills someone or not. I think that would be big deal of this series. To succumb to the power or not.

It was great episode anyway, have high hopes for this series.

What an amazing fucking episode of anime! Also Hiro is supremely fucked up, but I've got to wonder was this a random house, or did this girl bully his friend? Not that the answer really matters because what he did was fucked I'm just curious

The bath scene was an interesting one. I expected a different kill blow for the child, but drowning was effective.

I'm waiting to see how Inu goes about administering his justice or if is it just based off of when his overgrown spider sense is tingling.

Next ep should be interesting.

oh... so this is the anime true's color?

thank goodness it showed up early, because I can stop watching this shit already.

basically the old guy is the good man and this kid is someone who just mindless like to play with other's life and etc. Both with now with superpowers. Nothing more interesting will come from this anime, probably.

Oh god... people just need some stupid mindless gore and violence to enjoy an anime. Sad.

All the One Piece references got me geeking out..

People actually call the voice acting bad in this series? It's not bad, it's realistic like a few other users have mentioned. I've had my fair share of experience with non Japanese animation voices/speeches and I know when it's bad voice acting vs realistic speech pattern. I am quite picky when it comes to voice acting, many series where voice acting is not very visibly bad, people like them because it's "cute", but when it's not "anime-cute like" people jump on it?

Find it funny (yet sad) that Inuyashiki hasn't been found out by his own family. They don't care about him that much that they don't recognize that something is off. Oh well he's a hero now and hey no more of that stomach cancer, right?

Hiro saying "Really? One Piece?" when the girl said One Piece was her favorite manga made me laugh. Then I felt bad.

That scene was the definition of "sadistic violence." Hiro went in and killed an entire family seemingly just to try to feel something. Ichiro/"Grandpa" came in, but Hiro somehow completely missed the fact that there was no blood after he shot him in the head, and was about to go on his way before that very last minute. This should be interesting. Seems like the start of a good vs. evil battle.

The rule of nature at work.
The character knows that nothing human is able to resist its weapon and starts playing around with humans who are now no longer related to it. There's no fatal consequence anymore. It's not human.

And still, Bill will live on.
He will befriend the next inhabitants of the earth, beings of light who revere him as a god.
And Bill will outlive them all... for millions and millions of years...exploring, learning, living,
until the earth is swallowed beneath his feet.
Until the sun is long since gone.
Until time loses all meaning and the moment comes that he knows only the positions of the stars
and sees them whether his eyes are closed or open.
Until he forgets his name and the place where he'd once come from.
He lives and he lives until all of the lights go out.

I've always thought that psychopaths have no emotions and can't cry cuz they're apathetic, so I'm really surprised to see Hiro (what an ironic name for a villain) crying over One Piece.

You don't have to be a professional voice actor to get paid for dubbing a show.

If this episode wanted to showcase to me that Hiro is a monster, it absolutely succeeded on that front, that's for sure, although I really could have done without seeing the kid drowning in all honesty: even considering everything else that happened in this episode, that was sickening and way too much.

It's seinen. What do you expect? There're worse scenes in seinen shows.

It would've been barely okay if Hiro just sticked to causing trouble through cyber-pranks like hacking devices and exploiting systems for his own enjoyment but he decided to cross the line into the deep end by killing random strangers for absolutely no reason other than because he wanted to. It was understandable that he doesn't give a shit whether someone he didn't know personally dies but him being fine with murdering them himself was seriously screwed up.

The parents getting murdered was already unnerving enough but that part where that little kid drowned under the corpse under his dad was so shocking that I just froze there and watched speechlessly until it was over. The least he could've done was spare that girl for having the same favorite manga as he did but he still killed her. Inuyashiki better turn him to scrap!
