Kind of drawn out/repetitive at times but it did have its thrilling moments and compelling story.

Pretty dark stuff and also a bit slow but I'm sure it'll get faster.

It was ok but I expect much more from the story.. I hope it won't be 74 episodes about operations and doctors ;d

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;)

A nice start to a series that I've heard is one of a kind from an author who has brought us many amazing series from Monster to Pluto. I've heard a lot of praise about Naoki Urasawa and I'm happy to finally be diving into his work.

This first episode was quite entertaining with plenty of great moments. I really like are main character doctor Tenma. This episode may have been slow but it really showed us some dark themes with the director picking and choosing who Tenma operates on, even when hes about to operate on someone the director calls on him to operate on someone else such as a politician.

Throughout this episode I really enjoyed the atmosphere that is portrayed throughout, the darkness of it all is really nice and the animation helps with the atmosphere. The animation is also very solid for its time.

Im glad Tenma chose to operate on the boy instead.

I cant wait to watch the next ep.

now that's what i expect from an anime.. a compelling story from the first episode itself. we got a brief introduction of every character. i would say it is pretty nice paced story for what it's trying to achieve i guess.
