| I'm way more bothered about the subtitles than the animation or anything else lol. A lot of the sentences barely made any sense, especially when the art teacher was giving advice to Yatora. I'll re-watch it when it's properly subbed. It was a decent first episode. My expectation was really low just based off of the studio alone so I'm not surprised that the adaptation is just "okay", but at least it's not straying off of the source material...for now. I'm still sad that Gunjou isn't used as the OP though, it would've made me look forward to watching every episode for that alone. But anyways, Yatora's a very relatable character (in some ways). I always love it when most of the episode focuses on the character's inner thoughts. The blushing faces he makes are always so unexpected but cute lol. I'm looking forward to seeing his growth once more. |

| Good episode. I like the characters and it has a story that's unique and has potential. My main criticism would be the visuals/art (as in the the anime and not the art that's drawn in the content for the series) which can be better but oh well. I'm looking forward to the following episodes |

| Im honestly pretty disappointed by the animation, pacing and also how much content they cut out. I guess it probably means we will get 13 episodes and end on chapter 25. Also subs are pretty bad you guys should probably wait a day or 2 for better subs. They should've got gunjou for the op or ed man |
| Really good episode, the animation isn't the cleanest but I will watch this til the end and probably read the manga too |
| the paintings looks really good with the texture and brush details which I'm looking forward most from the adaption, can't wait to see more paintings to get their colors! :''D |
| A very introductive episode. Although wasn't the most catching, I'm still excited to see how this series will go. Thanks to Netflix jail, I can watch my other series before I watch this.  |
| Yuka had the best debut of the episode . Then again, this is the first episode that serves as a warm up and introduction of the series. It has a fairly interesting premise and the protagonist Yatora has a lot of potential to be developed. I love how they manage to capture the essence of art to match the premise of the story. Solid episode. The psychology of Yuka and Yatora has already captured my interest. |
 |
| It was an interesting episode. I love this type of anime. The main characters seems funny. I'm really surprised they show high school students smoke and drink alchool in an anime ahah |
 |
| wait what, the Protagonist didn't sit on the Corner Back seat? what is this... lmao Hell Yeah his friend drawing Oppai, definitely relatable. okay first episode i guess. it is not a good thing to see many complain on the First Episode from the Manga Bros, kinda made me worried. |

| For something so hyped, what's with the sub par and clunky animation? |

| Liked the characters and the premise but the art and animation are really bad. |

| Gonna be one of those manga readers right now. The anime? It's good, it's following the manga, the pacing is fine everything's fine but... It doesn't have the feeling. It's animated in a way you would animate a regular anime. The beautiful shading, the feeling, the quality is just not here. As I said nothing wrong with this, but it's also nothing special, it doesn't feel like anything, Yatora almost seems bland, when in the manga he felt really relatable. The music. Kinda odd?? Like when he was flowing in Shibuya in his mind, they played this funky tune. Why? I would've loved for this anime to have calming, relaxing. inspiring music, but it's either not there (which I can see being like a charming thing) or it kinda doesn't fit I highly recommend reading the manga now or after the anime adaptation from the beginning. The art is very good, Yatora looks and feels more real instead of looking like a baddie. Character expressions also add a lot to the feeling in the manga. TL;DR: Anime good, but nothing special. Manga good, feels special. |
| YOOOO ITS HERE ITS HEREEE !!! they left out the part where yaguchi said "im actually being tutored by this guy!(rank 1 in the class)" to cover up the fact that he Actually works and tries hard so im kinda ? on why they left it out but overall pretty nice first episode, ig i was just expecting some more WOW animation for this adaptation since the mangs was just.. Great. but again its not like this is bad, at all. hope it doesn't effect the storytelling tho, manga fr made me think hard about my life lol |

But overall very good start! Let's wait for the next episodes!! |

| Really liked this episode! Hope it all goes well for him. Teacher is really nice and supportive also. Looking forward to the next episode! |
| AISHITERU...REM! |
| honestly i love how this has started and i cant wait for more |
 |
| A little lack of OST. Animation is ok for me. Pacing was a little off tho. Overall premise seems interesting. Overally decent episode. |
 |
| I watched this anime thinking it was blue lock, I got confused with the anime name and the repeated mention of blue and some football scenes made me think this was the football anime, well I already watched episode 1 so I will probably watch this season |
 |
| Was the ending song the OP? If so it's a certified banger. Anyways, a really promising start for the series. I enjoyed the animation, didn't find any problems with it. The story looks great, and the sound design was a strong point as well. Looking forward to following Yatori Yaguchi on his arts journey. |
| COnsidering this is an anime focused on art...They need to upgrade the animation imo Havent seen the episode yet but the trailers gave it away ngl The manga is a masterpiece tbh sooo Yeah i hope it is done justice to some extent |

LiAuN said: personally i'm really sad that my fav line from the manga"what makes you think that going to a normal univerity guarentees you sucess?" never made it into the anime (just as an fyi this is said when he asks her why go to art univercity) Yes, and some other lines were not adapted too from the first chapters of the manga. |
|
| Why people here already write reviews?? Only one episode was out! |
|
| THE MANGA IS IN MY TOP 5. The pacing seems to be a little fast, although not much of a reason to criticize. But they cut a few things from the manga. As a Drama and Slice of Life the show must be a little slowly paced or nicely follow the manga which is perfectin pacing. Thr animation looks fine, not bad but not too good either. OST seems to be amazing. The OP was good. Ruuji and Mori-senpai's VAs don't fit their voice that nicely like I thought while reading the manga. Although I enjoyed it. Hopes it don't be like ep 1 anymore and improves from the next episode. |
| WISHED I COULD ALSO GET TRANSPORTED TO A WORLD FULL OF MAGIC And DUNGEONS, please take me there too if you could ( ◜‿◝ )♡ |
| The First episode was amazing to be honest before watching this i was assuming that it would be a lil boring since its story is based on art cuz during my primary school days i was very much interested towards drawing but the scenario totally changed when i get into high school.so from my personal experience i thought that it would be a lil boring anime but it was totall the opposite to what i had expected the first ep was totally amazing !!! |
 |
| For me, this episode lacked a lot of lines and the pacing was way too fast on some scene, maybe i read the manga slowly idk ^^ and the scene where the main character said ' i can do it too? ' (talking about picasso) i felt nothing in this adaptation, it was a huge kick start in the manga.. |

We didn't talk here, that is why. |
|
| I see understandable i suppose. |
|
| Struggling to find the courage in order to follow your passion gotta be something relatable to most people. I remember that I also had a phase where I was mostly passive and emotionally detached, not wanting to openly admit what I really like in front of others I wasn't close with, unless there was a general consensus. I was more about socializing with many people for clout. A crowd pleaser that lost himself in the process. Starting to pursue what I truly love was absolutely liberating. So yeah, I rock with Yatora and art club sensei. Promising start. |

VanishingKira said: I doubt that Seven Arcs hasn't had a 2 cour anime since 2006 & 2007. From a production standpoint, this show would get quite messy if it did end up being 2 cour, it already looks less than stellar and would get even worse over time as the production schedule get tighter. Hope for 24 episodes. |
|
| i'm so happy to see this adapted finally, definitely motivates me to read more of the manga and get up to date with it. also the opening slaps, i got goosebumps when i heard it. |
  x x x If I touch a burning candle, I can feel no pain. If you cut me with a knife, it's still the same. And I know her heart is beating, and I know that I am dead; yet the pain here that I feel, try and tell me it's not real, and it seems that I still have a tear to shed x x x |
