I didn't think it sucked, but I wasn't as swept away with it as I was hoping to be.


I was really looking forward to this one too! errr, it was a bit too generic.

Disappointing - it feels like Ghost Hunt, only not good. And I hate the President already. Think I may end up dropping this one.


ditto. Only i havnt watched Ghost hunt yet.
After only 20 or so seconds i got bored -.-'.... And 8 mins or so through i got really bored, i was just waiting really for it to hurry up and finish. Definetly a letdown. Dont want to watch anymore really, since it was so boring, and alot of it all done before. But i'll give it a few more eps to convince me otherwise, otherwise i may just drop it.

Eh? Maybe all of you had high expectations higher than the moon. Or maybe because Blue Drop is the anime that has my high expectations. Anyway, I liked this episode a lot. Out of the 5 Spring Anime i started this week, I liked this one the most.

I find that people with any expectations as to what it should be like get let down, which is why I never go in with good expectations, in some cases I go in with bad expectations , ie. Maple Story.

Not bad, not amazing either. It was just OK. I'll keep watching. Since I don't like to drop stuff it has a change with me even if it's a little weak.

I didn't like that president either.

This show was not on my radar, but I decided to watch it after seeing some other people begin to watch it. I really enjoyed this. The music was great, Iba was pretty cool, and the whole rent-a-magician groups competing thing could be pretty awesome. I'm looking forward to the next episode.

It was okay. I was happy to recognize a lot of seiyuus like Jun Fukuyama, Rie Kugimiya, Junichi Suwabe, and Kana Ueda but the rest of the episode was meh. Like someone said earlier, it didn't sweep me away. Unlike the person above me, I liked Night Wizard better than this and this is one that I might drop if it doesn't get any better in a few eps.

Well I thought it sucked.
The things that were original didn't impress me, the characters are boring, the main character's a whimp and..
I'll leave it at that, this show's obviously not for me!

Thanks De-Jay for my claim picture : ).

So I uhh... finally got off my ass to watch the one episode of Rental Magica that I had. I really enjoyed it. Okay, it screamed GENERIC to me (I mean we have a wimpy main character with some strange powers or whatever that comes out in times of need, the monster - of - the - week person with sad past, the sob story being told out of nowhere in the episode, etc). But I've never hated generic, you know. Haha.

I like Honami and her Celtic Art. Seems pretty awesome. Will watch episode two as soon as I can (don't have the episodes and I can't download anything as many of you guys know).

I just watched the first 1/2 of this episodes, just to get an idea of it. I liked what I saw. Now I can't wait to d/l the whole series. Looks good.
What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about?

...what the hell? It was like a clip show! The story jumped all over the place!

I'm gonna give it another chance, but if this doesn't improve then it's dropsville.

It was an okay start, can't say much other than the pacing which was totally awful :/ well let's see what the rest of the show will offer us!
