| Seeing where all the others died was like what I imagine all my Oregon Trail rounds end up like. Man proposes, God disposes. Well, we're all set up. I wonder where this tale will take us. |
| I didn't expect the lad to die so easily. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| I knew he was going to die on that chair but it still hurt me so much (cried). We don't even know his name and that's make it so much sadder. One of the best first episode ever. |
| That was a fantastic first episode and a great start! I am excited to see what will happen next. The ending theme is great too! |
 . |
| The first episode...incredible. Seriously what a great episode, and it looks like if this keeps up...it's going to be a very good anime. Also the soundtrack is really good and the opening too. |
| it was great... but i'm a tad disappointed with the here and there derpy face and inconsistent animation budget .. the facial expressions r realllllly important for this series.. so i hope it doesn't stay derpy.... am looking forward to the upcoming arcs y'all better prepare y'all's tearducts for some overdrive |

| Sometimes, some series just start off with a profound feeling, the signs of a masterpiece, and I think this has all those signs. Quite a depressing first episode. Broke my heart to see the boy living all alone, still hopeful, searching for his people. Until finally, he loses all that hope. I hope at the end, he had some small measure of hope and peace as he left that world. |
 |
| Very good episode !! I knew the boy was going to die but it still broke my heart 😭😭 |
| An emotional first episode. I felt so bad for the kid when he found what was likely the remains of his family. |
 |
| depressing, also what a coincidence Joaan and the owner hurting their same leg, still... I feel bad for the owner being and dying all alone |
| This was probably the most powerful episode I've seen yet, this entire season. Odd Taxi is still my AOTS but this might be a runner-up depending on how it goes from here. I've seen the manga but never read it. There were predictable parts like when the boy died and the wolf took over his body because it did the same to the wolf when it was still a rock and the wolf died near it. However, being predictable is not a bad thing. No, rather, even though it was predictable, it still had a resounding impact and I began to feel for this boy who I only got to know this episode. He had no idea his pet wolf/dog had just died and he was truly alone. The way you can see how he held so long onto a sliver of hope despite his impeding doom. My heart broke for him. The music, the voice acting, the atmosphere, the animation, everything was top-tier. 10/10 beginning imo. |
| 臭い- |
| Omg, I delayed watching this anime for some time because I was little bit afraid. Now I know why... Oh, the feelings... I just couldn't. Crying at the first episode. I felt really sorry for the boy, I'm wondering how it will continue now. |
 |
| WELP TIME TO ADD THIS TO THE LIST OF ANIME THAT MADE ME CRY |
NOW WATCHING: Blue Exorcist (Season 5), Bungou Stray Dogs (Season 3), Lazarus, Solo Leveling (Season 2) |
Stark700 said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Fantastic episode. There's the fictional world setting with the cold temperature but I really like how Fushi is introduced into the show. There's even some room for comedy with his scenes, which I find to be amusing. There's a lot of human emotions shown in this episode including Fushi's personal feelings, tears, and chemistry with that wolf. A great start imo. What a beautiful masterpiece of an episode. No words can describe. |

| A very emotionally touching first episode. I did not expect such a level of sophistication either. This is a story deep into metaphysics. I like it so far. |
| Oh, its already sad from the start. It looks good. |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 |
| First episode in and we're already balls deep in the feels although we do not even know of the nameless boy's actual name, his past or how he used to interact with his tribesmen, his ambition and dream that he has shared this far with the orb really humanized his character. Even though he eventually dies... A wonderful introduction to the orb and this wintery first ep. From this ep, we know that the orb is capable of perfectly transforming into an object, but to be a living being, it must experience stimulation. |

| As I re-watched this first episode for the 5th time, I was thinking, it would be interesting if there were an offshoot series covering the boy's back story. How he wound up living in the arctic, who his family were, etc. It's been said that the houses are hulls of boats, so I was thinking that perhaps his clan were sea-faring folks who experienced some sort of shipwreck and had to make temporary home in this icy region, while the stronger folks set out to the south to look for more temperate land. That's just my hunch. But I think it would be interesting of Oima-sama covered the early years of the main character. Oh and everyone calls him the nameless boy, but I'm sure he had a name. It's just that we don't know it. I refer to him as the Boy Whose Name We Do Not Know. |
| Damn that was good, one of the best pilots I've seen. I felt like i was watching The Revenant for a sec. |
| Hello I teared up I was so nervous while watching because you know it will happen, and when it really happened... :( Nameless boy's voice actor is so good! Wow. I look forward to hearing more of him |
| ''Joaan, I want you to do something for me. Remember me, forever'' I'm not crying.. you're :'( |
| after he mentioned how long the others were gone i was like they are not coming back, they are dead period also i was like can't u heal the boy? is shapeshifting really ur only power? StraWha7 said: At first glance I was like - 'goosh, another isekai type anime' - but as the episode continue further this anime really started to touch my soul with the way they handled music, progression and drama. I really hope that they will try to achieve that kind of feeling for the whole series. after overlord and arifureta and slime isekai became my fav genre |
FMmatron said: Man all that build up and he ended up like that was about to lose my shit.Sadly too obvious that the boy wouldn't make it :( But that's beside the point. It didn't take away from the impressive presentation and the impact of the episode. This feels like something special. Good shit fr. Been so long since I liked a character in short 20mins, such a shame. |
| So I'm not a sculptor or anything, but trying to tune the emotional impact of a story is kind of like adding fine details to a sculpture, that people may not even consciously take note of, slowly and carefully chipping away at the stone. Well, this show is more like a that rocket powered hammer from Fallout 4, that has wires attached to it, to do bonus electric damage on contact. I had the first episode spoiled for me, but even if it wasn't, the guy was shouting "please like me, I'll die in 20 minutes". :/ |
| Poor boy.. he didn't reach his destination😢😭😭😭 I wish Joaan helped him in some way.. he let him die there all alone😥😓🥺 What a start! when first episode is like this, i wonder how the rest will be.. |
---- Life is nothing but goodbyes ---- |
| Well this was intense and....melancholic. The orb concept is interesting. There's not much to say just that the episode left me feeling sad that's all. Overall, a great first episode, pulled me right from the first minute, that's what I look for in first episodes. 5/5. |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
| Liked the mood the show is going for but it left me cold at the end. |
| I was kinda annoyed by the boys over the top persona and toxic positivity but the emotion still hit over the boys failed ambitions to experience life and people. |
 |
| wow. nothing else to say but wow, heartbreaking, fascinating, and this gave me high hopes |
 |
| Thats quite a strong first episode hopefully it can be maintained. |
