Interesting series. The colorful animation, plot and OST, so good.

Not a bad start, The animation and art looked unique in a sort of way.

Minimum Holders with supernatural abilities and some sort of detective show... Looks like a promising anime.

Music wise, pretty great. Action wise, astounding.

Can't wait to see more of this.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who felt a Durarara's vibe with this anime. For the first episode it was really good, I loved the fights scenes!

Ugh, the background change when they use their minimum powers just hurts my eyes...

The only character that interested me was that bank teller, but then....
Hopefully it gets btr than some bland mystery.

The random cuts are pretty annoying and contributed absolutely nothing. Other than that it was pretty enjoyable. I'll be cautious not to expect too much, especially since this is Kishi Seiji.

I like the voice actors and the visuals but this was unexpectedly boring.
Wasn't waiting for something mind-blowing but this is below all my expectations and the first page of this thread made me realize how much I miss Drrr!

Detective version of Fairy Tail? hmm...

Definitely not.
First of all, there is not enough massive boobs to even put this anywhere near the FT realm.


Oh I can totally see the Blood Lad designs in work here when I see Hajime.

I'll give it one or two more episodes, if I doesn't get more entertaining I'll just drop it

Philosophical talk about an ATM :P

Well she's stubborn the bank is getting robbed :x

So Minimum is a power that is activated when something is done. The bad guy had super strength when he blew a bubble while Birthday had electricity power then he shocked himself with a tazer.

Well that dude's dad was a player and payed well :P

What what what!!!! That maid's offer 0_0 nightmares *-*

LAWL all that over a dirty mag collection.

Pretty cool, it feels like Persona 4 except they have powers instead of their cards and they can use them in the real world.

The best thing about not doing any prior research to the show (CR didn't have a PV for this show) is that the CV cast comes as a surprise, and in this case, a delightful surprise.

And yes, it does remind me a lot of DRRR and K, but more so K because of the supernatural powers and the bar.

I love the colour palette too~!

I think this might be my new favorite from the new bunch of series.

Also, their powers remind me of those from Darker than Black where they have to do something to continue using their powers.

So I guess that dude's rich father was a sugar daddy to those college girls huh? That would explain that none of them had any "financial difficulties".

I suspected it as a joke to myself at first "it's either money or dirty mags in that safe"...it ended up being the latter.

I lol'd so hard at the old maid saying she had a high school uniform that she'll wear for him anytime he wants.

The premise seemed interesting, unfortunately I expected more from this and the first episode was in fact a let down. I too got the K + Durarara!! vibe, no where near as dark as Darker Than Black. With the first episode I feel that we were thrown into something that wasn't well explained, and actually had me quite bored throughout the episode.

There's also an unfortunate heavy focus on morality and crime and it seems that instead of exploring these themes further, they simply mention them and expect viewers to take it as is.

That aside, it gave the impression that it wasn't well written and as some have already stated the first episode came off as being weak.

A mix of Durarara and Darker Than Black. It also felt like the Monogatari Series with those still images in the middle of scenes. Plus, I like how everything is colorful and the action is pretty cool. Definitely something i'll be looking forward to each week.

It's not bad, it reminds me of Durarara!, which is a good thing.
I found the early animations really stiff and annoying then fortunately, it gets better.
As for the plot, I like it, I just hope they will handle the mistery well.
Music is pretty good too, I'm already in love with the ED.

The rich father of that kid sure knows how to enjoy his life.

"Don't eat in my car" *throws food in the glove compartment* lmao. Also found that bit with the kid on the bike passing their car hilarious.

I tried soooo sooo hard not to imagine granny maid in a high school uniform but...but...

Get Backers anyone?
Like seriously not bad. I getting a little excited with this anime already. The first ep. and we already know who the final boss might be. Well considering this anime project I say all has been planned to the end. Just hoping it will not be disappointing.
That maid win this ep. You want highschool girl. I can be one. :D Also who the f*ck pay someone for a safe of porn. yeah we all have a skeleton in our closet. suck it to be your father safe keeping a stash of porn in a there. :D
One thing though, the fight scene is kinda weird and made me feel dizzy. Wonder why they made it like that?

This series seems interesting.

Dat college student was so hot that it was a turn off that she was a bitch.
Those unusual powers with unusual triggers really piqued my interest.
I also wonder what's with Nice's powers. Yes, it involves music, but what?

Damn that safe.... hiding it under your bed is good enough lol.

This anime has an awesome seiyuu line-up. Was a good start, too.

It kind of reminded me of Durarara!! because of how everything was related and connected.

I can totally agree with their male client. If I were to find out that my Dad was into college-aged females and hides porno mags, I'd definitely disown him.
