I'm actually really liking this show now. I was a bit apprehensive after how slow the first episode was, but I was clearly insane or in a bad mood. This is great, second to Kure-nai in my mind. The atmosphere is really light hearted but the characters have a lot of intensity. I'll be looking forward to this next week, and probably every week until the show ends.

I loved the BGM when they were talking about rescuing oji-san (19 min.). too bad their plane is destroyed, but probably they will get another one in the future. oh, and Allison looks nice in blue uniform!

Really enjoying the show so far, it's been awhile since I've seen a good adventure anime and it has a really nice old school feel to it.
The next episode looks awesome, can't wait for the infiltration :)

Another great episode plus Wil shows how much he cares for Allison again and its only the second episode. Next episode looks like it will be great as well.

Loved how Allison ended up being the one that hogged the bed, that made me smile.

It kept up with the first episode, I am looking forward to more. The pace of this show is quite refreshing, seems to be setting the same kind of down to earth atmosphere as kurenai in terms of relationships and character attitudes, though this one pulls in the events as well.

Loving Allison's character. This series is one of my favorites of this season (along with Kure-nai and Soul Eater) - the tone and setting are great. Can't wait for the OST to come out, too.

Hmm, I like this show. It has a nice, light-hearted feel to it. Although this is clearly NOT the second Kino no Tabi, it is very enjoyable.

I'm curious about the treasure...

Really, you hit powerlines, and get attacked by a buck, no luck for Wil(who I think is actually Vil).

Good show still, best show of the season I have seen.

Even if it's a little slow sometimes, I'm really enjoying this show.

The one thing to me that really stands out is the music. Usually I don't overtly notice the background music while I'm watching a show unless I pay attention. This time, though, it really fits perfectly and adds that extra little something. I love it. :D

seems to develop into the secret tip of the session, huh.

But as most of the people here I'm really enjoying this show with it's slow pace and calming atmosphere that sometimes turns either exciting or humorous.

Wow, the music in this show is amazing. Even the BGM ist great.

This anime is really good.

I can't really explain why I think so, but it's such a calming and warm feeling to watch.
It's good to see a "normal" anime once in a while.

Nope, I'm still not convinced. I'll see what episode 3 brings, but with shows like Soul Eater and Macross Frontier airing, I wonder why I'm watching this show. Allison and Lillia is just so very... tame. Which isn't bad by default but I could use something that's a little more exciting. And has more likeable characters.

so far Id have to agree with you. I'll keep watching hoping it picks up, ep 2 was definately better than ep 1, but Im not sure Ill like this show in the end.

I love the characters (especially Allison ;)), the music, the pace, the OP/ED, and well..., pretty much everything. It's a top3 show of this spring from what I've seen with Soul Eater and Kure-nai.

i really like allison and i think i'm going to really like will once things start to heat up, but i didn't really like this episode. i've seen episodes like it too many times and i can never get past the fact that i just can't imagine someone acting the way the old lady did. especially when she gave them the gun, i could almost understand the uniforms, but to actually arm enemy soldiers is going a bit far. after all, the only reason they would need a weapon is so that they could attack (and probably kill) her countrymen.

His full name is Wilhelm (Wil for short), which is a German name. In German, Ws are pronounced more like Vs - hence, it sounds very much like "Vil".

I'm sure there's more obstacles ahead of them yet.

At first, I thought the simple colours and animation would detract from the show as it's supposed to be an adventure, but they have proven me wrong. It's interesting how the pace is calming and almost slice-of-life like, but the action is still there - albeit, not much of it yet. I'm not sure how it's going to feel as a final product, but right now, it's really working for me.

I have to say, I'm happy to have a kick ass character with the same name as me ^^

Also, in Japanese it is romanized as "Villu". However in this case it is the German one that matters, as you already explained.

I so wouldn't have picked this up if SHS/FoSu didn't release it (in beautiful ordered chapters, even! No more OP/ED to deal with, woo!) but I'm really glad I did. First episode impressed me, second really nailed it home. This is a series I'll follow to the end. I really like these kind of 'adventure' stories.

Yep, have to agree that this was a pretty good episode compared to the first. Some suspense and twist. And I was worried that the two of them was gonna get turned into the enemy authorities.

Has potential but still ... I'm feeling somewhat underwhelmed here.

Also, Allison is a bit annoying, and Will is a bit too much of a pushover. Hope we see some character growth in the not so distant future.
