Story-wise I liked this episode, the first shots were great art-style-wise, but for me, the CGI aspect felt really cheap at times during this episode, so visually it wasn´t what met the expectations for me. Even if I knew, there was hype all year for this show, I came farely open-minded. The Opening also was unpleasingly blocky in its visuals at some parts, so definetly lots of things a directors edit can fix. For now the 9.03 score is very overrated, there are lower ranked shows, that have masterpieces as first Ep´s. This one doesn´t, I´ll still carry on, ´cause it´s premise/ story is cool.

Animation was good, though i feel the timing of some scenes were off compared to the Manga. Will probably become a good adaptation without too much to complain about, but i will probably forever recommend the Manga over the Anime, even though i hate Manga readers myself for saying that for basically any show.

This popular anime is very interesting for me, the atmosphere of dark life and the action about the existence of the devil is quite good. This anime and Bleach are the main anime that I look forward to every week.

It's great if there are many good anime in this season. Maybe this will be the best season in my opinion

Solid 5/5

Very bad adaptation from mappa. The batle whit the demon is very large in comparation with the manga, and it have a lot of CGI. If the second episode is like this I dont watch the anime more.
