This is the first time I've ever skipped/fast-forwarded a show's first episode, hoping that maybe it was just a horribly animated dream sequence or a troll opening minute. It wasn't.

I don't think I'll stick to my 3-episode rule on this one.

LOL WHAT


character design is fine, story setting funny buuuut... that's it


animation was almost inferno cop level, the only 2 animated scenes were kiriko (the ninja) undressing in the bathhouse and that killer chick groping her breasts. out of 30 minutes like 5 seconds were actually animated. even the perverted jokes were blunt and boring

it is really bad like really REALLY bad. gonna stick around for now because it is so bad but man... that was something

Steampunk dinosaur mecha that is powered by virginity.

That alone should usually make this a great show, but somehow it doesn't.

I mean I expected shit but this was definitely worse than what I thought.
This is even worse of what Studio Deen does.

Were those animations? I think the episode was 90% stills, and 10% animations.
The voice actors and the character design are plenty of good though, I can't understand why they're doing this.

I . . . I don't understand. It's got the director of Shana and Slayers, the scriptwriter of Eureka 7 and Ergo Proxy, a wonderful voice cast and animation production by J.C. Staff. While that doesn't necessarily mean that this should be anything special, for this to have turned out the way it did, I really can't comprehend. Why is there so little animation? Why is the animation on display so horrible? Why is the budget so extremely small? There's really no reason for this to look even nearly as bad as it does. I thought Daimidaler was awful looking, but this, this is the worst-looking tv anime I think I've ever seen. The entire episode was like those bonus shorts that come with the home releases of ecchi shows. I've seen people under anesthesia who were more animated than this show. Ugh. What a waste.

I guess it's for april fools.

Haha, good one. I wasn't expecting anything and I had no intention of watching it, but I had a look to see how bad it was. I didn't even bother to finish the episode.

So bloody bad. My god. Did anything even get animated? I think J.C Staff went bankrupt and decided that Index 3 is more important, so when they decide to do it, they'll have more cash in the bank. Dropped 1/10.

Wow, I'm surprised everyone hates this so much. I didn't notice the (alleged) lack of animation because everything was so ridiculous and over the top that I couldn't keep the stupid grin off of my face. Almost reminds me of Kill la Kill or Inferno Cop in that respect.

I think this anime is funny, and it is no as bad as people here make it. The fox girl in the opening song is cute, and I can't wait to see her in 2nd ep

I don't care about the animation, and I didn't see any problem with it. It looks fine for me.

For those saying JC Staff is bankrupt or pushing the money aside for x or y show - please take some time to learn how the anime industry works. The funding put into this show has absolutely nothing to do with JC Staff, the state of their company, nor the budgets for any other shows they are working on or will work on in the future. It's not like the companies send out scouts to read manga, pick good stuff, beg for the rights to adapt it, pay out of their own pocket to license it, pay out of their own pocket to animate it, release it, market it, and so on. Animation studios are the ones who get the people coming and paying them - then they work with what they are paid (as well as using that money for their wages). Whoever wanted this adapted simply didn't feel like putting the money forward for it aside the bare minimum JC was willing to take to do it.

Lol I don't understand what happened. There was a rape joke for laughs which really dampened my interest and I almost fell asleep in several occasions. This was so boring. If this keeps up it's going to be the second thing I've dropped.

This is what a B movie would look like done anime style, just ... just doesn't get any more B movie like that.

It's bad, so bad it's watchable if you watch it for how bad it's, which is a really slim section of the population lol.

Also anyone complaining this is bad you haven't watched ''Gun Frontier'' that's as bad as drinking battery acid.

Well, there are more cases of Virgin Girls having the power to do certain things ,than of Virgin Boys, so i'm guessing this is to balance them.

6.0/10 for this episode.
Dat lazy animation.
And, the MC should've exchanged that bad mecha with that oppaineechan.
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.
