| Some of you are ridiculous. Animation was poor, fair enough, but jumping the gun with judgement of everything else is silly. It's only the first episode, I read the manga and I can tell you it gets a lot more interesting and overall much better once they get to the better parts. Hoping this is anime is 2 cour, as they will need that much to get to where the best parts of series is. I mean shit, not every series starts off with all guns blazing like so many people seem to want. I guess at the end of the day it's better that the impatient complainers will drop this early, so those of us who will enjoy it can discuss it without being bothered by them. :D That said, while I'm sure I'll enjoy it enough, I don't have the highest hopes for it, cause Toei. |

DivineTrinity said: Slow throughout the whole ep but I enjoyed that twist at the end. There is a human like neighbor? Well I can't wait for more stuff to be revealed later! thought was slow for a first ep. |
| Really? They're called "Neighbours"? They could have atleast bashed their keyboards to create a better name |

| That was incredibly boring. Shouldn't have even attempted to watch it after reading that disgusting description. |
| great OP and fuck those still shots the action is good but since it's made by Toei it feels childish |
 |
| Okay first episode. The whole narration at the beginning was irritating though and the use of so many stills too (I knew Toei wouldn't do a good job). I liked the OP (it was quite catchy) and voice acting. I hope it stays faithful to the manga. It's a bit strange that it has been given an anime adaptation so soon so I'm worried we'll get an original ending. |

| Toei Animation is a shit studio. The animation sucks big balls |
 |
| As said above, the animation is appalling. too bad WG deserves better than this Toei's animation... |
| The story is similar to Z/X Ignition... Wut, the white haired guy is a neighbor? This seems a bit interesting so far. |

| Well that was.... really mediocre. The animation quality was disappointing and the dialogue was bland. The music and voice acting also seemed off somehow. I didn't really like the main character; not a fan of the whole typical shounen "because it's the right thing to do" mentality. On the plus side, Yuuma seems to be quite interesting. 'll give it another 2/3 episodes but I don't have high hopes for this one. |
| I'll keep with it for a while. Hopefully, no one will pull a tablet, chips, or cards and yell attacks. |
| the op is catchy i guess this is the typical shounen and it's probably not going to be anything too amazing, but it's entertaining enough... i mean, 1 episode a week can't hurt, right? |
 |
| A very stiff, emotionless episode. The dialogue was boring as well. The MC with a trigger, yet useless against the monsters? Come on, that's just lame. The OP wasn't that great either, I just noticed the black background all the time. The face the white haired kid makes all the time is annoying. I really do hope things kick up in the next episode or two. |
TheNaturalPerm said: Toei Animation is a shit studio. The animation sucks big balls A bit jarring seeing someone with that avatar/sig calling Toei a shit studio. |
| Hmmmmmm, a pretty decent start to what looks like an interesting premise Looks to have potential :) |
| There were so many awkward moments where the camera and OST would stop but the end fight was really good animation, so I'll keep watching it for the battle scenes. |
| I have to say that the first episode was quite boring. Nothing out of the ordinary. I hope it gets better. |
 |
| Weird story, weird character design, lame ass setting.. I hate how they localized the neighbor's attack. I mean come on, after seeing Nobunagun fighting all over the world it just makes the slug-like neighbors look so tame and boring compared to the EIO. Not to mention their lame design that doesn't feel threatening at all. The character design (or maybe just the way they're drawn) is so unappealing. A short white hair brat and a megane guy with derpy face that reminds me of Akamatsu from Jinsei? it's gonna be hard to root for them. |
 |
| First off, I love the Opening <3 OMG this duck-face makes me smile cause it looks so absurd. I like this scenes where other are getting underestimated and then the one who's underestimating gets shit in the face. xD Lol this guy Kuga is so chilled LMFAO Wtf this show is fucked up but funny |
| Hmm... I don't know what to say about this one yet. I can't quite get with the character designs and Yuma's stupid facial expressions. Those bullies would have been that Neighbor's lunch. No mercy for assholes! Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| Gosh... This sucks. But there's Mytho in it TToTT. I kind of want to watch it just because of Yuma's character design :P |
| As a fan of the manga, I have been looking forward to the anime since it announced. Sooo... My take on the first episode. animation quality was not good, I've seen worse, but I've seen much much better as well. Kuga's facial expressions got annoying. The story stayed true to the Manga. There are some minor extras added to the episode, but Episode 1 of the Anime is Chapter 1 of the Manga. This is more important to me then the animation quality. Hopefully this will be the case with coming eipsodes, staying true to the manga. Because things get much more interesting and exciting with each chapter. Also, a lot of things about neighbors and the neighborhood are explained in the next few chapters. Oh, and we haven't really met Jin yet. Who is one of the best characters in the series. (Jin is the guy who saved Osamu at the begining.) I expect him to be properly introduced around episode 4. That is if they stay true to the manga storyline. I'll keep watching because of the story, not for the animation. I hope you do the same. |
| Summoning Dark: "What kind of human creates his own policeman?" Watcman: "One who fears the dark." "And so he should," said the enity, with satisfaction. "Indeed. But I think you misunderstand. I am not here to keep the darkness out. I'm here to keep it in." There was a clink of metal as the shadowy watchman lifted a dark lantern and opened it's little door. Orange light cut through the blackness. "Call me . . . the Guarding Dark. Imagine how strong I must be." |
| And another anime I'm not watching! Man this season has been full of mediocre first episodes. |
| As long as this isn't 2 cour or longer, I'll keep watching. |
| I like Osamu. He's cute. Anyways, I also dig the superhero-meets-dystopia premise. The 'Trigger on!' phrase is superhero-esque indeed. Nice touch. |
 |
| FUCKING ATROCIOUS ART AND ANIMATION. AS EXPECTED OF TOEI. Oh my god. First Terra Formars and now this. Beyond abhorrent adaptation of the mangas I like... why... Really bullshit. |
| It had way too many pauses in speech. It takes like 3 seconds for another sentence sometimes. Good OP, though. The action scenes are worthwhile, and the plot seems cool. |
  |
| As a fan of the manga, disappointing. Bad pacing, bad art, bad animation, bad directing, and an unsettling lack of background music that comes off less as atmospheric and more as boring. HOWEVER. The action sequence was fucking magnificent. I choose to live in denial and believe this is an Evangelion thing, where they are saving 90% of their budget for the fight scenes. |
| great episode but the thing i'm worried about that might kill it for me is the still frames I mean there were so many so I hope they cut down on those otherwise great episode for a show that has a lot of potential. |
Voduu said: Well, I have to say, this was more interesting than I was originally expecting. The characters are at least pretty interesting. Yuuma's reactions to everything are just great--short and simple, haha.. It was interesting to me as well. I didn't know what to expect but I what I got, I liked. I'll be looking forward to this next week |
 |
| Was it just me or were there too many awkward pauses? |
| Not bad. Good enough to keep watching, at any rate. |
 |
| Well, then.. The animation was alright, definitely not anything to rave about. Pacing was a little odd and slow at times. Aside from that, there were a couple interesting twists already. I'll keep watching for now. |

| This show didn't look so bad. I have hopes for this one! Hopefully things will pick up next time, I'm interested in the world they have here. |
| Be sure to message me if you quoted me and want me to respond! Just give me a link to the forum, because usually I leave my comment, then leave the forum. |
| Strange pauses throughout the show and for the pilot episode, too much QUALITY. I won't be continuing with this. Also, whoever's subbing this for CR is not doing a good job. |
| -Nothing can stay unchanged. Even so, can you still keep on loving this place? -Be still my soul; when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. |
| Pretty decent OP. Kuga has a pretty sweet trigger. He reminds of of Killua from HxH. Interesting to see more. |

Suzie said: The crap animation and art, the weird narration, the stills, the bad CG..... was this made in like 2000? It seriously looked like an anime from the 00's most of the time. Also the setting is very cliché and the main character is already annoying. The names of the stuff are kind of dumb, too.... Not expecting much anymore but I'll give it another shot. I was thinking that was well, just had an aged feel to it. Did anyone else notice that the bullies eyes are all just dots? The whole thing is so 'meh', the promotional art is deceiving! |
 |
| Not bad. Decent |
| Just one thing: MEH E H |
| the casting is sucks |
 |
| it was ok .... i liked the twist at the end but overall 50/50 if i keep it or drop it. |

| I reading this from manga Same story of hunter x hunter Osamu Weak will Become strong later like Gon. Yuuma over power like Killua. Jin genius and strong fighter like Kurapika. and Chika had powerfull Strong stamina trion but she very weak in fight she like Leorio only strong in support. MC Osamu is Weak and he not Stupid he good in tactician battle and plan and not only that he had devil luck Always survive in danger like Infinite Luck even he weak he cannot be kill. |
| I loved this episode. Yuma seems like a badass and my favorite character so far from the show. The animation is not the best but it is still acceptable.I give it a 3/5 |
 |
| Pretty decent start, nothing amazing yet though. I'm not to keen on the character Kuga Yuuma though. |
| Well, this anime is about as good as the rest of them this season. That is, mediocre. Oh well, no reason to drop it for now. |
