Catalyze said: Not very impressed with it.....sad panda. All I am going to remember is blood....and more blood....and when they decided for a building to explode, it sprayed blood everywhere. Sorry.....it was just a beat down blood fest. so Production I.G was a bad idea? or it should have been a different studio for better adaptation? (of course since different people have different tastes) |

| The animation, character design and OST was very good.. happy to see this manhwa animated but sadly 78 chapter become only 31 minutes is just..... TragicRomance said: Would prefer a slower pacing and a TV series. |
umashikaneko said: Generally speaking,source materials of seasonal anime are either ''Disc sales'' friendly genre or popular enough. These are very obscure(5~30K) but have gotten anime adaptation this season because they are anime fan(disc sales) friendly genre/medium. Mahou Shoujo Nante Mou Ii Desukara vol1 7,999 Ooyasan wa Shishunki!vol8 15,225 Koukaku no Pandora vol7 14,855 Saijaku Muhai no Bahamut vol8 24,814 Hai to Gensou no Grimgar vol7 9670 Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo!vol 8 27,534 Yeah, so it's rather aimed at a specific audience, as always harem/ecchi genres fetch more sales following by moe and yuri... Those have probably solid fanbases to buy their discs or something. Nice info, I'll have to keep it in mind for reference. |
| Owari No Seraph get rekt in 30 minutes. |

| I never thought this manwha will ever get animated. It makes me so happy, it's the best anime among the current anime trash in this season. ps. frankenstein is so gorgeous.  |

| Pretty good, but it was paced pretty fast. I hope more of it gets adapted, the webtoon only gets better!!!! Also what is up with M-21's voice, way too high. |
| ok so i finally saw it due to retarded brothers waiting to see it until 2:30 AM last night so i looked at it today...-_- ok so they rushed around 70 chapters BUT this is due to the fact that you had loads of time to understand rai and the characters more. that totally wouldn't have been possible in just a short so i'm cool with that. at least they didn't skip shark and his crew. i can't tell which is more annoying, jake or him. plus regis is my favorite character so i'm really glad we have a chance to see him. the gore throughout, yeah guys, the manwha wasn't nearly as violent. i think they amped it up so that it could get more attention. so basically they whole short was a basis of what it's about. which is actually pretty good planning now that i think about it. the first arc was about the introduction of what the authors had to offer and the second arc proves this by being even better than beforehand. yes it was rushed but the second arc is so much better so i don't really care if they get to show it. so if i think about it, was the mispronunciation joke of rai's name, was the new things rai was learning about the future, was franky giving rai a cell phone important to the plot? nope. the fighting doesn't really begin until near the end, and that's just what the episode showed. the only things i have iffiness with is the gore/violence and rai talking. it's kind of important to rai's character that he hardly talks. and that animation of rai's blood-power...who else was so psyched to see that?!?!?!? that and kneel was my most hyped part to see in the show. it was done perfectly. watched the whole thing with a sick fanboy smile on my face. i must have looked so stupid lol. |
 |
| i watched it more for the hype tbh. i guess i have to check the manhwa now-- |
 |
| Is this opening a path for webtoon adaptions? I'm excited (((o(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)o))) |
 |
| This wasn't bad! The vampire theme seems to be so overused though since there are sooo many out there. I'll pick up the manhwa though and see how different this story can be from all the others out there. |
| I like it! Although I haven't read it before, but I think it's good. I hope they will make adaptation of God of highschool! |
 |
| Even though it was rushed, it was very good. I hope it get full TV series |
| *loses faith in anime* another fucking school setting... another fucking op mc.... another load of fucking helpless humans to befriend him... more fucking one dimensional villains with no motivation... why the fuck do people like this? |
| I thought it was pretty cool. I dug the characters and the concept, the fights were cool too, albeit a little rushed. I'd really like to see this turned into a full TV anime, though I don't if the chances of that are any good, but if it ever happened I'd be there day 1. |

KeyZero said: It's the Manhwa's revolution! We need Noblesse and The Breaker anime adaptations!!! next we need manhua (namely, hero you ling)!!!! i think what everyone is psyched for is that noblesse paved the way for other authors in the 2nd generation of manwha, and if this gets success, that also means other manwha can have a chance. japan could publish other manwha and potentially adapt them as well, giving korea a whole chance it almost never has.

| I'm being biased but I LOVE NOBLESSE It's my favourite manga series. Hahah M-21 still being a villain Love it ! |
 |
| I was actually surprised at how much I liked it! v(=∩_∩=)ﾌ |
| Mmmm those sounds! (~ ♥◡♥)~♫♬ |

| Ya that was pretty damn great |
Juhnny said: Interesting OVA! Is this supposed to be a preview for a tv series? that's what we're all hoping. fingers, tongue, and toes crossed. |
|
| Found this to be pretty decent. Did its job in getting me interested in a full season, if they decide to produce one. |
| Defeating a sandwich, only makes it tastier |
| I WANT MORE !!!!! OMG T__T |
Juhnny said: Interesting OVA! Is this supposed to be a preview for a tv series? I sure hope so because this looks promissing and I feel the story has potential to become so much more. I'm sad Mary died. Such a beautiful character. Frakenstein, Mary and Shinwoo are my favourites. His is name really Shinwoo? I thought I heard Toshiro everytime. His name is Shinwoo in the Manwha but for this Japanese OVA not Korean his name is Tõshiro. (It's adapted from a super great Korean Manwha.) |
| |
| It was pretty decent, considering the coverage amount and the rush. This will be the perfect advertisement for Nippon audience. Maybe, we will be able to witness a full adaptation. (Being optimistic is always nice.) |

(Being optimistic is always nice.) You are not the only one who's optimistic. Seeing a Korean Webtoons Manwha being adapted even in an OVA is opening ways for other Manwha's. |

SillySempai said: Im considering this episode as a one shot in manga world. We got a feel for the characters, setting & genre of the series. I havent read the manhwa for this, so my opinion is more open to it as many here feel that too much was changed. I liked the Hellsing-U similarity of how they tried animating it which I appreciated alot, i felt generous on my score giving it a 9/10 & i think il keep it that way. i'm sorry but hold on a sec...how is hellsing even close to noblesse in comparisons???? |

Arcturus9001 said: Setting change was awkward, and the fact they did a whole 75 chapters in one episode obviously lends to serious issues, but all in all they handled it pretty well for an abbreviated highlights reel of such a large amount of material in only 30 minutes of animation. Animation was pretty good quality too. Not a big fan of the changes but its to be expected, with a series that has such a slow start they kinda need to accelerate the beginning or there'd be zero interest in it. Overall I'm quite impressed with how they handled it, despite disappointment in cutting out some of the cooler moments (as well as not doing anything to lead into a part two). And if this leads into more, ESPECIALLY A BREAKER OR VERITAS ANIME, MY LIFE IS SET. All in all despite the obvious flaws of it being rushed its far more coherent than it could have been, they picked the right parts to keep and cut given the time they needed to adhere to. It changes the story a bit but overall you get the gist of it successfully so I'd say they did their job quite well and overall I want more but for what it was, I'm quite satisfied. this is what i'm proposing though. they rushed the 70+ chapters into one episode, now everyone knows at least an aspect of what the show has to offer. so instead of using up 2-5 episodes of introduction, they can jump right into business without confusion. yes it was disappointing not to see it all but still the second arc has something much better to offer (namely mah boy regis). also TOG and witch hunt needs to be done. pronto. |

I recommend you read the manhwa and then you'll know the reasons for the school setting and human friends, as well as more about villains' motivation and MC's powers. Good luck. |

| Well, that was a let down. I've heard a few times how awesome the manhwa is, but never read it. Nonetheless I decided to watch the ova, to see what the hype is about. As for this ova, the graphics were amazing! Great job on that part, Production I.G. I know it was only 30 minutes long, so there wasn't much of character development, but I'm still going to complain that characters were... whatever. Didn't hate them, didn't really like them. It was boring. The only scenes I liked were the one with a photo and "I'm lost, please help" and the one with that dude being forced to kneel and that only then he can look Rai in the eyes. I suppose it was an advertisement for the manhwa (well, still not gonna read it, though). But yeah, it would be A LOT better if they made a full TV series. |

Dude, this ONA is a survey; on whether they should give the green-light to an adaptation or not. The amount of coverage was 78 chapters. 78 chapters have been condensed into an "advertisement" which lasts for 31 minutes. Of course, it would be rushed. Although, they did a pretty good job considering these facts. Plus, villains are not one dimensional in this manhwa; the school setting is for the entry part. Then the plotline will be on a wider epic scale. [1080p] Noblesse - Beginning of the destruction [OVA] You can check this in order to comprehend what i am saying. This one is hinting the future developments of this artwork. |

| If you start to read the manhwa itself; then you will see the fine detailed character exposition throughout the series. I believe this OVA served its purpose. We will see whether Japanese gals are going to be hooked or not in the future. About hinting issue: |
