@ButadonMeitante Wut. One freaking volume? How could they...
It didn't even feel that fast paced to me. What will they do with the next 11 episodes with just another volume?

I know right, but to be honest this might have been the better decision because if they adapted the first volume in like 6 episodes then nothing would have happened for 6 episodes, when you think about it.

There was a VN planned for it and also a third volume but neither of them were ever released.

Disappointment. I expected much more. That´s find, is correct but is not spectacular. For the moment a murderer and too much talk....6/10.

Blown my mind. The style is just perfect for this show, and I don't get it, am I the one who didn't get confused on the parts which were explained, unlike other parts which served as foreshadowing and introduction to the characters?

This was pretty unconventional yeah, but people should give it a few more episodes to see if you manage to get the hang of it. Some of the entries in the science adventure series are quite eccentric, so when I watched the episode I knew it isn't going to be your average run-on-the-mill anime.

Didn't disappoint me one bit so far.

They adapted a whole volume into one episode. Since there's only two volumes released... I hope the pace slows a lot more down now it's done introducing the characters durarara-on-crack style, instead of becoming an Anime Original.

People say the MC is obnoxious but the same complaints were made of Subaru from Re: Zero when it first started airing.

Interesting enough to keep watching. I'll keep the 3-5 episode rule in mind.
It was only half of volume.

I feel like I need to catch my breath this first episode was WAY too fast paced. I could barely keep track of what was going on. Also main girl having that big of a rack is a little too crazy for my personal taste. I will say the animation is smooth given how fast the episode was, granted there are some really obvious cost cutting methods implored. If they did adapt the entire first light novel in one episode it defiantly shows. I hope future episodes aren't this fast otherwise I'm going to drop it simply from that point alone.

Dialogue was so fast i couldn't catch up and i had no idea what's going on.

This is coming from a guy who usually analyzes everything i watch to the small details and symbolisms. Main female character has obnoxiously large breasts for no god damned reason(yet?).

Too much exposition and jumping around all over the place to the point where literally nothing was happening

2/5 just for a good OP. Really not sure if i want to continue this, high likelihood of dropping.

Keijo is more serious than this. At least I know what I'm (supposed to) getting. The giant chest chick is ridiculous. Only good for H honestly. This reminds me of how they sold of Mai from phantom world in the first episode or Miyuki from Basquash only to sideline her and ignore the "features" they gave her early on. I haven't finished the first episode as of yet but I'm getting a serious Kiznaiver/whatever the fuck that "mystery" show with the reverse/inverse trap. In the sense of pretension and overblown characters.

The struggle to watch AND understand this episode was too much for my brain. My attention deficit prevents me to fully enjoy this show. Ah...but it seems good...but I know all i'll be capable of is watching the nice backgrounds and listening to the music.

So i'll just appreciate Izumin and his awesome shop. What is it? A pub? Restaurant? Cafe? It has a nice decoration and feels comfortable enough to chat or read a book in there...or write a blog.

I'll give them that the animation and artstyle look really good though but...
Those fucking breasts, the 666 number being(apparently) taken seriously, so much stuff happening at once, the fucking otaku MC and the over-the-top unnecessary yelling made me cringe this entire episode

However, I'm going to give it a second chance next week, they can still fix it


You said it for me.

Boobs were ridiculous, and everything was so fast I just couldn't keep up. It was tiring to watch and I still had to rewind a lot.

No, they just used that fucking hyped up shit kyo sometimes does a few seconds an ep throughout the whole episode. With the exception of maybe 2 or 3 characters they did their best to pour as much energy and speed into this shit as they could. To no effect apparently. The plot seems like a slightly edged up Phantom world and the character designs while nice becomes annoying with its clash between some of the darker designs and moody backgrounds with the idiots jumping and shouting as much as they possibly can.

Mc pls talk 20% slower. Entire show & Oversized-oppai should take their Adhd pills.
OP/ED super cool. Art quite stylish, detailed bgs, crazy poses & rambling like DRRR. Line quality is more grainy, which is rare nowadays with digital linework.

Besides the random stuff like park event March 1, most details make some sense/hints.

Main events center on the Professor in TV interview. Creepy girl goes to Curse Service redgirl, probably to curse Prof. Very quickly he's killed, his hair "mailed" to Curse Service causing the odor. Miyu joins Mc. Mc finds Prof dead. Prof's blue son sees Miyu's video telling him to meet dad.
Randoms: Detective boy. Demon-oppai warning Prof son. Occult office talk, Prof's late mom mystery. Ghosts. Blog. Invisible-demon. Sky-scanner.
Pacing like 3x faster than other shows, painful to watch (and they still had time to waste on irrelevant Ryotas + toygun), but mystery seems interesting.

Really really digging the hyper style of this show, I guess it's their intention to be as cliché as possible so I'll refrain on judging them on that and just watch it unfold.

I do hope they keep the pacing that way and don't revert back to the usually very slow mages pacing, because that has turned me off before.

I haven't watched this episode yet, but I'm kinda disappointed already with all the negative reception. This was one of the shows I was most looking forward to this season.

I wonder if the source material is also lacking or if it's just this episode that was messy...


The source material, AKA the light novel only has 2 volumes, so I dont even know what the fuck was A-1 thinking by adapting this so early in the game. It's either gonna be anime original or the author is guiding them.

Ahh... I feel so bad yet also grossed out! So far things seem interesting, as for the story, we'll have to see. Man, scalp and everything too... I wonder why the lady cursed him though? Maybe she's his wife? So many questions and the black magic girl was sniffing the bloody hair? So okay, technically the lady killed the man and then cursed him?

Well, I know they adapted the first light novel in a single episode. What I'm wondering is whether the novel is also a mess as well. Maybe it was just the way everything was adapted.

As for the fact that the third volume was canceled... I don't think that's an indicator of what's to come at all. I mean, there's no specific release date as of yet, but an entry for Occultic;Nice was created on vndb in Mar 2015. That's a long time ago, so it's been in the works for quite some time.

The visual novel may not be out yet, but I'd be shocked if they turned out not to have the full script by now. So I don't think the question is "what was A-1 thinking". The ones working on the visual novel probably thought everything was ready for an anime adaptation and decided to do it.

I see a lot of potential in many of the things presented in this episode, so I'm genuinely curious about the quality of the source material. Of course, this episode was a major clusterfuck, so I'm not talking about this adaptation per se. I'm just talking about the potential in many of the ideas I saw while overlooking the glaring negative aspects of this adaptation.

That was a great episode. Looks like an interesting show. Kind of bummed out with the invisible devil's appearance at the fortune-teller. I thought the show was trying to play with the idea whether paranormal is real or not, but it just nonchalantly shows something supernatural. Aside from that, really liking the quirky main characters. And of course gotta love the hentai-sized gigantic ta-tas. Good for the creator for daring to try something different lol.

I was actually looking forward to this anime because I love the mystery genre, however I didn't really understand the mystery that lies behind this anime at all after the first episode. OP and ED were good, but the characters were meh.

That one girl had shockingly oversized breasts and everything was extremely fast paced. Also they talked way too fast, I couldn't catch up with what they were talking about 90% of the time?
