| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Hmm, it's alright I guess. Quite frankly, I'm more interested in the world building than the plot so far. Meanwhile, are introduced to the main characters including Inyou and Zero. Had a mysterious feeling about the episode with the way it introduced everything. It has a very serious and eerie tone as well for the storytelling style. |

 |
| Think we'll have to wait. |
| Hey, how you doing? |
| I was expecting a lot from this anime and I woke up today excited to watch it:( now I have to wait for who knows how much time... oof |
| How nice, I was actually interested in see this anime cause its premise is so cool. Luckly a fansub will do the job and save us once again. |

| Trying to watch all available anime series so you won't have to anymore, the list of anime I can recommend is still in progress, tho |
| Well this is quite a surprise for me, I actually liked this show. The characters are ok, the main dude is kinda op but ok, his mini-robot isn't annoying, and we have a girl. It has my attention, I'll keep an eye on this one. |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
And the parade of Jump shows continues. A Pierot produced one this time, and not one of the ones that they spend any effort on, so things like animation? Not happening here, guys. Dude just waves his hand and things pop into giblets. That's when they bother to show it at all, cause a lot of this crap also happens off screen, or cuts to black to show a spray of blood then returns to him casually walking away from the carnage he leaves in his wake. And speaking of which, the episode is about a kid hiring him to find his lost brother. Lost brother went blood-plant crazy, killed all his companions, and then his brother (who our protagonist was supposed to be protecting). So the protagonist then no quarter executes him too. Bear in mind that we're not talking about someone presented as an anti-hero Punisher. He just goes "This is the true horror of Magmel," gives a great big shrug, and goes home to his child servant. Oh, did I mention the child servant? There's that too. He's omnipotent, invulnerable, and too cool for things like personal responsibility, man. Gee, what isn't there to like? |
| Type HxH world, I like that |
 |
| I thought it would be a lighthearted adventure series, but I didn't really expected that kid to die, or the MC to be so ruthless for that matter. Getting HxH vibes of this, and I'm liking it so far. Also I loved the part of the beginning where that Killua wannabe says something about becoming the king of Magmell only to has his ass kicked in seconds. |

| What is this Boruto soundtrack lol |
 |
| Decent start. RIP little kid. Looks promising. |
 |
| RIP little brother... Older one will surely be contender for worst brother of spring 2019. |
| well that's just my opinion..... |
| Man this just makes me really want to read the manga. I can see why Togashi might like it, the story already has me sold; there's not enough wild, pure adventure stuff like this and the concept and the main characters are all interesting and unique enough. I dig it. However... I'm doubtful that this studio/staff will handle the source material well anyway, it seems pretty demanding with all the action and detailed bizarre creatures and scenery, and this wasn't a bad first episode, but it felt sorta.. choppy? It wasn't so consistent in animation quality, and the pacing felt off too.. Hoping I'm wrong, because again, this is definitely promising. |

| Only subs I could find were awful, but this show seems like it will be an entertaining way to kill 20 minutes every week at the very least. |
| The opening song is pretty damn catchy and I like the visuals a lot. And wow, I dunno what to say, but definitely my favorite start of the season. The premise is so intriguing and has so much potential. Same for the worldbuilding. It also seems shounenesque which is a huge plus for me. Inyou is also an interesting character. Harsh on the outside, yet he still cares. Can't wait to learn more about his backround. Very promising start and I'm so hyped to say the least. Not that I'm expecting a second HxH, but if it comes close to it, that would be already plenty. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| nice start, animation isn´t that great but the story intrigued me a lot, it reminded me of toriko and it might be a little peak into the dark continent from hxh, once we get there xD |
| Wow, I almost passed on this anime from the description alone but I'm glad I gave it a try. Certainly a nice start. Animation isn't that great and the storytelling is a bit repetitive though. Not sure how MC's powers work but I'm guessing he's one of the Lectors that the little brother wanted to become. RIP little brother. Can't believe he still thought well of his big brother after that. Knew there was something wrong with the big brother when he didn't do the fist bump but didn't think it would turn out that dark. Wish MC was a bit more emotional about the little brother's death though instead of shrugging it off as normal. |
 |
| I can forgive many things, but the story feels incredibly rushed. I feel like this should have been spread over several episodes. |

| No wonder i recognized the music... another epic ost incoming. |
| Things don't make sense in first episode. 1. What is the point of explorer if Angler was this strong? 2. What is the point of exploring if Angler already has this much information regarding this new continent? 3. The new continent was emerged without human residence(I believe), so when people first discovered fruit of Epola, there shouldn't be any human corpse out there in the continent, so how does one determine it must be fed on human corpse? I like anime with this theme of unknown land/world,etc. I really hope these things are actually explain properly later on and not forcing any reason or excuse on it. |

| Finally a protagonist who doesn't teach bullshit to bad guys when they don't have any intention of changing. I like how he "saved" him. 😅 |

It has my attention, I'll keep an eye on this one. Robot and the girl are same lol. She is just controlling the robot from far away. |
| |
| It feels like a show with no plot. However, the continent of Magmel seems very interesting. Looking forward to another episode. |
 |
| The episode started out very spooky with those cardboard animations but i really liked it at the end and the action scenes looked very solid. |
| Good lord the animation is horrible, but what else do you expect from Perriot Plus. Other than that it seems kinda interesting I'll give it another 2 episodes and see where it goes |
| Ya know I don't who's worse, them Jap's who missuses any English Vocabulary that they can find or them Chinese who uses such monologues that is contrary to what it means.... Cu'z the Mc jaz used the phrase about "Saving the Guy" but what he did was killed the guy. |
| kinda surprised me, expected some intense worldbuilding and exploration and got fratricide instead |
| Liked this opening episode, but it lacked the plot to be comprehensive enough. It is a bit better than black clover and the MC is likable for me. This opening didn't give away too much so it's hard to judge it, but that was some powerful move on the brother. |

How I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb --- Dr Strangelove  |
| Hmm. Didn't have very high expectations when I found this on the seasonal chart. I feel even more apathetic to the little bro's death than the family in Kimetsu no Yaiba, except that episode managed to change my mind and want to see the protag keep going. This episode had nothing of the sort. Who is this guy with the energy sword? The only reason I'll be tuning in again is cause those monsters were kind of cool. What was the thing that little bro wanted to be? Lector? Rakuta? I'm not entirely sure that zero isn't what's his face's sister who's in love with him. |
 |
| Probably my second favorite show of this season so far. The episode felt rather quick, but it wasn't bad. I hope it doesn't disappoint me in the coming weeks. The world seems really interesting and I hope they go more into everything that it has. |
 I love to talk anime and manga, feel free to message me! |
| there were a lot of plot holes but surprisingly enjoyable lol the MC makes me think of Ryoma Echizen |
 |
| That OST, classic Takanashi Yasuharu lol. Felt like I was watching Shippuuden/Boruto. I agree there's not enough actual adventures out there (not recently anyways, and no, isekai doesn't count), so this was quite refreshing. Wasn't the most interesting introduction, but I still had fun watching it. Honestly just tried it out because of Kawanishi Kengo and its adventure tag :P I think this might be a keeper though :> I'm liking Inyou so far. |
 |
| Really interesting start actually I enjoyed it |
| Now I know where Togashi got the idea for the Dark Continent arc lol Ever since I deeply looked into this and found out that Togashi himself even recommend this, I had a feeling that this series was gonna have a lot of potential, and boy was I not disappointed Apart from some of the directing in this episode and some pacing issues, I thought that overall it was pretty good. The setting is intriguing, the monsters (And I guess plants even) are seemingly going to be quite diverse and menacing, and the tone fit really well (Especially when we found out how this place made that poor kid's brother into a monster) Our two leads were pretty cool too (Especially once the action scenes started happening), so I can't wait to see more of them |
| Because of how colourful and bright this was, I didn't think someone would die. I wonder why stories from China are so colourful. The designs were pretty; I liked most of them, except the girl. Something about her makes me not like her. |
| Not a bad first episode, typical show of power and greed from people. Lovely of the big brother to just kill everyone all for that.. is this from a manga/LN? Is it ever explained how a random giant island, with its own species just appeared Oh yeah and the subs were horrible. |
