We're being reminded that Passione is working on this anime with all these suggestive shots of Miko lol

The actual scary part was actually the beginning portion for me when we didn't actually see the ghosts (especially the shot with the ghost moving fast behind her when she found her stuff).

The designs of the ghosts are really cool but honestly didn't think it was scary, the animation of the ghosts was very good.

I'm here for the horror stuff, not for the fluff so i'm glad they're putting good work on the first aspect already.

Great 1st episode and phenomenal voice acting from Amamiyaa Sora. Cannot wait for next week to watch FL encounter with Astral ghost and her more poker face.

Loved the first ep, loved the scene when the first demon appeared couldn't be more perfect. The op and ed slaps hard, the animation also looks good, this anime could best anime of the season.

I'm almost felt turned off when there is many fanservices in just an episode. A pantyshot left from being a verified Ecchi show. The intro has tones that you would expect from a romcom/harem anime, which is confusing since this is a horror/comedy anime. The outro has some ghost noises, so it's still acceptable despite the tone is almost the same as the intro.

Fortunately, there is still some value that saved this anime from being a totally questionable horror show. Miko has respectable stoicism. She able to endure the tense of being watched by many disgusting ghosts at various times. Those ghosts being disturbing is great because that's exactly what would I expect from a horror anime.

Gonna keep watching this anime. Hope those fanservices won't overpowered the creepiness of the ghosts.

Please tell me they will explain later why those ghosts really want Mieruko to see them, or why she suddenly can see them.

I actually expect some jumpscare to happen, but I guess because of comedy tags, there is only one moment that scared me a bit. Can't wait to see more of the twintail girl, looks cute.

Oh the opening and ending, love it. Absolute banger.

Well, the anime already diverged from the manga. In the manga Miko is always able to see them from the beginning. They didn't just suddenly appear to her, and Miko is always able to perceive them and ignores them everytime. As far as I remember, the 1st chapter of the manga is exactly the bus stop scene (and that's it), and Miko already realise her ability by then. The manga never tells us when does she start to be able to see them.

AHHHH I can't believe the adaptation is released now, from months of waiting :DDDD Camera angle is pretty interesting and looks natural + semi-realistic, animation is great and as a manga reader, I'm very looking forward to the 2nd episode and so on because where the story is taking place from the beginning and its cliffhanger is pretty accurate to the manga <3. Also the OP got me laughing and the ED is very great!!

Mmm... still undecided as a manga reader on how I feel about this adaptation. The quality is good, the ghosts are pretty well done, there's really just one thing bothering me: the tone. Mieruko-chan was always more horror + feels rather than horror + comedy to me, especially the early chapters.

Gonna need a few more episodes to see how this thing goes.

This was pretty interesting. Much more of a horror suspense vibe than comedy which is nice... except why tf do they throw in obnoxious fanservices shots in what is supposed to be a suspenseful moment? Way to take me out of it. Director, producer, script writers, original creator: whoever thought that was a good idea is an idiot.

Man, is the fan service slapped on thick in this series! The OP was also pretty neat; reminded me of Blue Period since the splatters resemble paint. Overall good first episode and I am intrigued to see more of the comedic elements.

Pretty decent first episode. I checked out the first few chapters of the manga and it seems they added a lot of stuff for build-up because it's rather abrupt in the manga. Great additions, hopefully they can deliver that consistently.

I don't follow the manga so I wasn't aware that this contains fan service. I was a bit surprised to see that since I'm not a fan of these types of anime. Nothing much happened in this first episode but I will keep watching it.

The first episode was really good. It only covered one chapter and a little it of the second chapter though (bus stop scene and forward) and added a lot of anime original scenes and damn, they were really nice addition. Some people say there's ton of ecchi and honestly, it's just 1 frame assshots so nothing huge. It didn't affect me at all to be honest.

It seems pretty decent so far, this anime is airing at the perfect time since spooky season just started.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Mieruko is hot as FUCK. I love the fan service in the first episode, thighs, ass etc, no complaints.

This kinda reminds me of JJK in some ways. Really cool premise here, cool MC, and just in time for Halloween. Hype

Surprisingly fun, really liked it. The blend of horror and comedy combined with Miko's approach of pretend to not react works great.

Miko is great, love her design and I won't deny that I didn't love all those shots with suggestive angles and poses. The skirts are very short but I approve. xD

The pun on the title and her name is pretty nice too, Miko->Mieruko.

...and how exactly was my post judgemental when I said that this was a good first episode? Stating that the anime is full of fan service is a fact, not a judgment (I'm aware the manga is the same). When exactly was did I complain or claim that this anime was bad solely due to its fan service? Oh right, I didn't.

Good first episode, however, I have a feeling this might get repetitive.

Studio Passione with the top tier ecchi quality. Aside from that, a pretty good episode. Looking forward for more content.
Miko's a fearful character, strong girl with a curved body.
The opening and ending are both bangers.

I really enjoyed the first episode but couldn't help but feel it was let down by the unnecessary fan serves throughout the whole episode. when they are setting up a really creepy tense scene then immediately cut to a close up of her ass, its incredibly immersion braking and takes away from the tone the were originally trying to establish.

I really like this episode overall. The foreshadowing is very well done, and I liked the new anime only scene they added with the phone chat. The voice actors fit the characters nicely.

Same director of Ishuzoku Reviewers, so I'm kinda worried that they might go overboard with fanservice. But so far, it's been like the manga, so hopefully it gets better later on as well, because it does harm the immersion and damages the tone of the scenes.

Not that I would drop it because of that anyway, I just hope the anime remains a faithful adaptation and knows when to take itself seriously.

Great start to the show. Loved this episode. OP is great too. Feel sorry for Miko having to pretend not to see them ghosts. The monsters themselves look well designed also. Looking forward to the next episode!

Wow Passione managed to make it more scary in the first 5 minutes than anything it did in 2 seasons of freaking Higurashi.

I guess having a competent director really does wonders.

I hope the quality remains.

As for the fanservice; does it have a reason to be here?No
Do I like what I see?Yes.

As long as it isnt during the ghost encounters it is fine.
