| Interesting show, but Chiwa's betrayal seemed too forced to me. She seemed genuine, loyal, someone who'd take his side no matter what, but NAAH. Of course they had to make her into a fake biatch who changes dramatically so that our MC can go full edgelord revenge-mode, which is lame. I honestly thought they'd kill her and blame him, but at least they didn't make it THAT predictable. |
| Standard first episode for a fantasy shounen. Kinda interested in the worldbuilding aspect of the story so I look forward to seeing how it's developed. OP song slaps, btw.

| I mean this as a positive, the vibes felt like something you'd watch on a late night on Adult Swim. I actually like that the animation is kind of "street". Like the wealthier area is portrayed more as clean and more symmetrical where as the slums looks a lot more edgier and the characters look rougher which. |

| Not a bad first episode. There are a couple things I didn't like but eh, I enjoyed it overall! Looking forward to seeing how Rudo escape the pit. Also I saw powerlines at the bottom of the pit. I had a feeling the bottom of the pit was like the rest of the world or something. My guess is that the trash of the old world gained life and started to attack people. Maybe it wasn't so bad at first but it eventually turned into that big monster at the end, leading to people eventually moving up a mountain to escape the trash and monsters below. I feel pretty confident that's where this is going lol but looking forward to learning more about this world! Also damn I did not expect Chiwa to turn on Rudo like that. |
 |
| To be fair to the bullies he definitely smelled like trash. Apparently he goes dumper diving regularly so... The revenge part seems mildly interesting but it depends on how it's written. I mean getting revenge on all of the other people in the slums for doing nothing seems like a bit much. |
| Go read Berserk and One Piece they're the best thing ever |
| That was hella edgy. I'm not the type of person who particularly likes watching these edgy shounen shows but well can't really judge something from just the first episode so I'll give it a chance. Visuals are okay |

| Okay-ish first episode I didn’t expect Chiwa to act like that tho, kinda surprised |
 |
| Okay so having not read the manga, This was a pretty standard start to this series. Very shounen-like. I'm expecting great things from it since the manga is very highly praised. The artstyle though, They've nailed the manga's aesthetic right atleast. The song at the end was probably the opening and it was very suited for this anime. Overall, Enjoyed this premiere. Let's see where this goes. |
 |
| It starts out just like how I remember why I was drawn into Attack on Titan. The MC is living a crappy life, but at least it's a peaceful one. And then all hell breaks loose towards the end of the first episode. In AOT it was an irregular titan breaching the wall that was supposed to be high and durable enough to keep the titans out, and here it's the MC being framed for a crime he didn't commit and executed on the spot without getting a chance to defend himself. This is going to change Rudo into somebody who is out to change the world for the better seeing that most people die upon being thrown into the Pit, but it's going to be a long, difficult road. Great start to this show and CR sure wasn't lying when they hyped it up. |
| Bro, literally the first episode and they are explaining too much already, I hate the current state of shounen. |
| The world of this story is extremely messed up, and its "justice" system is a complete joke; no presumption of innocence to execute someone, no hard evidence required, no trial, no nothing. But at least the MC (somehow) survived. His "girlfriend" turned out to be quite shitty though. Instantly swayed by mob and the BS verdict of the city's enforcers... She didn't deserve him. |
 |
| i can't drop a show that ends episode 1 like that. so i guess i'll have to be back next week but this doesn't look like anything out of the ordinary so far... |
| It was fairly generic thus far. Nothing particularly stood out. However, that in of itself may be a praiseworthy point of contempt. |
 |
| I really liked the style and characters designs this show brings to the table. Also the op sounds like a banger. |
| sic mundus |
| I though the first episode was alright. Looked decent overall. I didnt like how the characters blatantly exposited out loud multiple times. |
  |
| A shitty world to set up a revenge against the world plot. Nothing I haven't seen before, but we will see where it goes. |
 |
| Feels like the average edgy shounen anime, I hope it gets better cause I am a little intrigued by the world. |
| THE ONE PIECE IS REAL!!! |
| Yay new prodigy is born. He landed on the suburbs of Night City xD I like the music and art style, unique, lets see what comes later |
   |
| Very sick first episode, loved it, it reminds me of Deadman Wonderland x Made in Abyss, so I guess the goal is to climb back to the surface from the trash abyss and take his revenge |
 |
| OK it's got a lot of style. But lots of animes today live or die by style alone. Let's see if this title gets any real writing to back it up. At least it's intriguing enough to give the 3 eps test. And it seems to me there was another anime or maybe a live action sci-fi movie that had pretty much the exact same premise from back in the 80s or maybe early 90s. Just can't put my finger on it though. |
| Strong first episode, though storytelling-wise I dsilike Chiwa's change of heart with no reason given for her to distrust Rudo. I understand the genre convention for this sort of story dictates that the protagonist be completely alone in the world, but that sort of attitude flip with no explanation always irks me. Other than that, lots of great animation, a cool concept, as well as really cool design on the world and characters. |
