| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Hmm... Idk how to feel about the show so far. Is it just me or did it just get into the action and main story way too fast? Not that I mind but it felt like I got dumped right into the middle of the show. I'm okay with the CGI and there's obvious mecha themes in this already. Ernesti is cute as a kid though. We got some info dump on the technology and their world setting. I'll give this more episodes although first episode felt so-so to me. Going to take a little time for me to get used to Ernesti's character design. He looks like a girl... |

| That's how he died? Uhhhhh....move out of the way, maybe? As generic as it can get with the exception of robots being involved. Everything went way too fast and my attention already was lost. I'll probably drop this since Saturday is really packed again, therefore shows from there will end up a sunday watch and this just doesn't look engaging to me. |
| Story went by way too fast for me. By the end I didn't feel invested into the story or characters at all. It seems like we skipped a large chunk of the introduction and just went straight into whatever the plot is going to be. Couldn't follow all the concepts and side characters they started to introduce. Hopefully this isn't how the following episodes are going to be. Otherwise this show might not be for me :/ |

| Oh my god, they resume 9 chapter from manga in 1 episode, i feel the episode go so fast. And Enresti sound and look more girly than manga lol. |

| As someone who hasn't looked into this series before, other than the Synopsis, i quiet enjoyed the pacing from the usual drab of 2-3 episodes to get the ball rolling. honestly. I can admit there's always going to be a few ways an anime adaption can go, along with the source or doing their own thing with the ordering of events to make animating it easier(or to tell the story slightly diffrent) and sometimes that's not well recieved, but other than how fast it went i was thoroughly entertained by the whole setting, as silly as the MC died, it let us get right into it and at the very least have a back up anime we can all watch if next week's releases don't quite hit the mark! #Excited >textwallsoz |

| So it's a story about Bound Spirit (more or less because he just bought some figures but have no chance for building it) but luckily got reincarnated into another world. I know I've seen it pretty much, but still feels weird when Mecha elements collide with Magical stuff. Whoa, that Teacher shouldn't said the second element that Ernesti so early. :( Come to think of it, those after reincarnate Genderbend-thing and the knowledge reminds me of Tanya-chan. Is he really a boy or a girl then? >_< |

| Welp, it's entertaining, but the pacing was a bit too fast for my liking. Hopefully it'll slow down a bit in the coming episodes. I'm liking the familial bond between the main cast so far though |

| I only watched 3 minutes of this, one of the easiest early dropped anime of my life. Animation is very sub-par, some of the shots made me laugh out loud, especially the horses running and the whole aspect ratio diagonal shots were so bad. People seem to be saying that this is going at a supersonic speed when it comes to adapting its source material, watching this did feel like I had the episode on fast forward. |
| :3 |
| Another story about a MC being reincarnated into another world. It's entertaining though. Ernesti was so cute when she was little. |
 |
| i knew the MC was rtarded when he spoke the first time...and then he died a death he could have avoided with ease...he wanted to die! CGI Mechs fighting huge CGI bugs..aight im out.. |

| Definitely fast paced, but this was a very enjoyable start! Looking forward to more! |
SakurasouBusters said: Definitely fast paced, but this was a very enjoyable start! Looking forward to more! Gotta agree, didn't think I would enjoy it based off the synopsis and images beforehand but the way the episode was produced was quite cinematic and not nearly as cringey as I imagined. |
| Dam i have no idea why its so fast i don't even know why one of them turn into Uzuki Dam bootleg everywhere  |
| Into the Internet! |

| I was surprised when Kurata spoke. I was expecting a deeper voice. He got ran over by a car and was reborn as a kid. He really likes robots. It's his dream to be a Knight Runner. The CG is okay. Decent start for this show. |
 |
| From a light novel readers perspective this was way too fast they covered hours of reading time in to minutes lol anyway i hope things get better |
| My biggest regret is using my real name as my user name. The continuous pursuit of finding that genuine thing. |
| Wow, a whole arc of it's novel was adapted to a single episode. I will not take this seriously either, just gonna enjoy those robots. |

| The pacing seems all over the place to me, but the animation was enough to make me still enjoy the episode. Eru was cute too. |
| You had me at isekai mecha, magic and computer coding aren't so different after all XD Fast paced start, mc a cute ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) alpha_shadow said: I only watched 3 minutes of this, one of the easiest early dropped anime of my life. Animation is very sub-par, some of the shots made me laugh out loud, especially the horses running and the whole aspect ratio diagonal shots were so bad. It has movement and barely any cutout scenes in the action, the animation is fine. |
 |
| When Kurata spoke for the first time that really caught me off guard. And his death could have easily been avoided. Seriously, the distance between him and the car was ridiculous, even if it did seem to be going pretty fast. Oh well, he had to be reincarnated to another world somehow. Seeing source material readers gripe about how this single episode covered almost an entire volume doesn't get my hopes up for any sort of good story development. Eh, I wasn't really expecting that from this in the first place, if anything it should be good mindless entertainment, but from the time it was first announced I expected it to be a subpar isekai show. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| This was was rushed more than I was expecting but it's nothing too bad if you ask me It managed to capture the characters well enough and the visuals are good to go along with the action scenes so I'm not upset at all |
| another anime with cringe sub I guess with all the onee-sama and eru-kun translation |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| I agree that the pacing is really fast, i read the manga and this show jump from chapter 1 to 9 in just 1 episodes and i'm just like "woah woah woah, wtf happened here...." But hey, i get to see my Ernesti in action so thats something :p |

| The pacing was too fast >,< |
| Kitan~! |
| I lost interest. The manga felt better. I guess that's obvious. EPISODE 1 = From Chapter 1 to 9 of manga + Skips and modifications. Story coverage speed is insane. No character background development. Only Eru is the highlight even though he is not the only MC. The modifications to the story like they are able to glide using magic is ok but was too much overpowered. Exept Eru everyone else feels like a stranger. Starting of the episode his life on earth, his voice and his adult life character doesn't fit. And later I felt like what was he doing in his last moments just standing and staring at the car like that. Humans have adrenaline and they boost our physical strength to its maximum when we are in danger. Guess that doest exist in anime world. |

| Decent start, but I feel like they really rushed the details. For instance, as to how the MC built up his powers prior to entering Elementary School from what I have gotten from the details. It makes him seem like he's an OP piece of work fresh out of the front gate. |
 |
| I usually don't like to watch mech animes. But this is actually quite good. |
| the animation and the CG looks fine, Ernesti so cute but he's a boy. WHY?! WHY?! the only problem is the story, isn't it way too fast? aren't they jumping from 1 volume to another as fast as Flash run? i hope it wont be as bad as Taimadou Gakuen, sigh. |

| The pace was extremely fast, so it was an amount of 9 manga episodes? that's insane! tho, the other half felt well, pretty generic setting, but at least the MC isn't your typical crybaby, at least for now |
| "We could make the world better, but it's easier to just shut our eyes." ~Blackwall |
| From someone who has not read the manga, I found the beginning part of how he died to be really fast paced. I was like "woah, well that happened" The rest of the episode was at a much more comfortable pace for a first episode. This is my first rodeo with mecha anime and it's not too bad. The animation could be better but it's still nice. May give this one some more chances, we'll see how episode 2 plays out |
| Not sure why but this episode was really rushed, have not read the LN but i did read past of the manga and they have more then enough material to anime. But by rushing so much they skipped some things which might be useful to know for future episodes. that being said they did a nice job animating this it looked nice. |
| I read the first volume of the light novel and thought that I would pick this up with a friend, cause I liked the LN. Long story short Friend didn't even understand what the fuck was going on and who the maincharacter was. |

| What a mix of terrible and fun. Will they ever address the horrible origin where he has taken over a 9 year old boy's body? I guess we're just supposed to assume the kid died in the wagon without a scratch on him and so the body was "free"? LOL, oh well, mecha and fantasy, lets see where this leads... |
| Episode felt a bit rushed with some large info dumping. Plus, my expectations felt a bit betrayed, but that would be my fault for a lack of research on this. |
 |
| Fist ep was better than expected. The animation and CGI was pretty solid. I don't like the MC ambiguous looks (please if its a boy make him look like a boy). The pacing was alos super quick but it was still enjoyable, enough for me to stick with it. |
