And so the party begins . Damn what a start for an anime , this show truly lives the hype of the manga. I liked the animation , it was flawless and animators well done with the action , and especially the blood animation , that was so cool .

Plus how is this senseless gore again? The over the top blood and drama completely fits the the show and its genre. Its like complaining about a horrror movie having to much violence.
Because it's cheap shock factor.

Like maaaaany, loved the op. Ok this is something i really wanted. Bored of the simple shounen hero stuff. This amount of gore and carnage takes it to a whole new level. Great episode, really looking forward to this. 5/5

What? Horror movies don't need over the top violence. Do horror movies generally have lots of violence? Yeah. Is it necessary? No. Not usually.

Over the top gore and oceans of blood everywhere is pretty silly. Just because it conforms to it's "genre" doesn't mean it isn't a valid criticism.


I didn't say horrors couldn't work without violence. I didn't say he didn't have valid criticisms. The violence is silly and that doesn't bother me at all. Like a slasher film. If anything I think it works for the series as it later on develops tension and repercussions in the fights.

You know damn well what i mean. He is naive and annoying i mean i read the manga. Plus this aint really a shounen since they dont do quick power ups yet. Since most of the cast trained most of their life. I highly doubt this anime is truly meant for ages 6-15. I guess i should say MC got a shounen personality.

How does ths show take itself seriously? The main character yells "What's with these turn of events" at the end of the episode. Lol the hate is strong in here. I guess this series was too overhyped for some to stomach along with the "gore". Which is really just blood sprays.

This show is like mirai nikki to me.

I enjoyed mirai nikki but when i saw how laughable the hype for it was, i was baffled.

This show will be fun to watch, then hopefully forgotten this fall when durarara and other decent shows come out.

Nope. Especially since their "revolution" will basically boil down to 1v1 fights with super weapons.

Not trolling, genuinely amazed at what would you like in this shit. Bad art, bad animation, bad cliche story, bad attempts at humor. Yay gore?


The manga is actually pretty great. No story? It was an exposition? The animation was decent but it wont win any awards.
Bad fights? There were 2 fights in which both were between 2 unevenly matched opponents. Ofc they would be short.

Yea, good judging...

Dope anime! 9/10 for the first episode for me. Fight scenes were extremely brief but I enjoyed them (slaughter scenes more like it :|). I do think that they add in a bit too much comedy (right after the climax of the episode) which kind of ruined the feel a bit, but it's something I'll get use to!

You should probably stop watching anime and go for MLP..

I gave it a 10 for starters cause this is probably the first 1st ep of an anime in a long time I watched like hypnotized.

Well he's not all wrong. Without the gore I doubt it would've been that popular.


Gore usually doesn't effect manga sells that much and the manga is actually one of the more popular series. It has a good story and the members of nightraid all have good personalities, this also is one of the few stories that the characters have good development and change down the line. It should be good as long as they dont change anything from the manga.

The story is good for rpg game, not for tv series.

Never drop an anime after the first episode. I thought it was a unspoken rule to at least try to watch the first 3 episodes lol. Try the manga though, its farther ahead, read the first 16 chapters, and if you dont like it by then, drop it.
