Damn that was some creepy stuff at the beginning, you can't just come at people's windows with a pair of scissors and stare at them.

We'll see where it goes from here, look like there will be blood later on, looking forward to that.

I sure as hell found the beginning funny, as well as feeling the tension whenever those 2 girls went creepy mode.

Only problem I have so far is the grandfathers out of place mention of Kiri's name and the tools.

I want to smell that hair/5

Judging by the manga I guessed it would have a more Hellsing like look to it, the deep shadows and color scheme.... But this is also good as its much easier to develop an emotional relationships using a more normal art style. If The Manga is anything to judge by this will be quite an interesting series.

Good first ep.
They did a nice job of animating the first chapter of the manga.
Although they kind of messed up on showing the in the manga clearly visible cut part of Iwai's hair when the two are lying in bed.

The pacing was all over the place. They were skipping ahead like crazy, did a very poor job on introducing the characters and the situation, and it was also impossible to get into the MC's stupid hair fetish, because he did not bother to emotionally describe his obsession. Both the VA and the script sucked at this.


You're doing the anime stuff injustice. The pacing and skipping is the same as in the first chapter of the manga. The horrible pacing comes from the author trying to cram in the plot of three chapters when he got twice the usual page number for the first chapter in the magazine Crime Edge runs in.
The pacing got better from the second chapter on, so I guess

A bit reminded me of Edward Scissorhands.

It was silly he claimed he was not a dubious person when he, with a scissor in hand, intruded into another home. And the female lead believed him. Oh well. Also it felt forced to care whether or not their ancestors were murderers. It wouldn't be surprising if everyone had an ancestor who was a murderer in the past hundreds of thousands of years.

Wtf was this? The story was all over the place and the character interactions were really awkward. What does this show try to be? Romcom? Survival Game? Bad characterization?
I really had to force myself to keep watching after just 10 minutes! Gives off the feeling of a really bad fanfic or something like this.

It tries so hard to be dark and brutal, and fails so horribly. Let's just hope they're actually able to make it brutal for real, like killing that annoying MC.

3 episodes rule. I am not sure about watching this one or not.

1 episode is enough to tell the story and bombed.

Two? What's the other one?

OT: I don't know what to say about this anime. On one hand it felt really stupid, but on the other, it felt different. Quite honestly, when I first PTW'ed this, I thought this would be very shitty and was even having qualms about downloading it. Now, after watching it, I'm quite glad I did. It was rather enjoyable.

RDG. And in both hair and god (which has the same pronunciation in Japanese) are also mentioned together.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

First Impression:

Animation:
Some weird animation styles and transition were used
Character designs look poor
Backgrounds look pretty good
Lighting effects were also nice
Choppy almost no animation so far

Sound:
No OP
ED was okay
Overall score sounds good but nothing outstanding
Some "new" voiceactors for the MC couple

Story:
Interesting concept
rushed episode, too much progression in one EP
Also too many concepts at once, everything is touched on a bit but nothing in any greater meaning which makes it feel overblown
cliffhanger to give you a reason to watch it any further. I have the feeling it could have been a one shot anime and this is it. But yeah the show must go on!

Characters:
Quirky but unrealistic
too much "progression" in one episode, relationship feels artificial and not impactful
Would have been better if they introduced them better and let them get into a relationship over the course of 2 episodes, instead of rushing it in one.
All motivations/problems are already solved in the first episode (he wants to cut her hair, he cuts her hair)
Other characters got a sketchy introduction

Enjoyment:

3/5
Not sure if like or not. Will see in the next episode.

This anime is pretty unique. I guess its a "game" about murder weapon owner vs other murder weapon owner. Definitely going to continue watching this. I'm also getting vibes that this is quite similar to Mirai Nikki in a way. First episode 5/5.
Anyone also thinks that Iwai with long hair looks strikingly similar to Usami Haru from G-Senjou no Maou?

Iwai with long hair > Iwai with short hair

she just looks so adorable with Long hair!

Watched this on a whim and....... I don't dislike it. If it is about weapons and fighting and a little less about cutting hair it might actually be good. I wonder what will happen in the next episode.

>3 episodes done in one
>not rushed

lol what? If that isn't the definition of rushed. A lot of content in a very short time.
I mean the characters were almost not introduced just random facts thrown at the viewer.
And the character designs don't look particulary good. Especially for this day and age. Their faces looked really odd sometimes and very cartoony
If it would have been at least well made...

well it's okay I didn't hate the episode, just think this show already started in a poor way.

Well that was less enjoyable than I had expected. Basing by the genres and synopsis, I'm expecting there will be fighting later on.

Disliked how the MC just HAPPENS to have a Killing Good too but that's anime for ya.

Crazy hair fetishist, wheres my inaba at. That one scene when they first met and they were having orgasms was pretty awkward, challenging kyolo-kun from Gj bu and his brush technique. Overall i thought it was ok, the art wasnt anything special kind of reminds me of hayate no gotoku.

I liked it. I didn't think the MC was creepy, just "unique". I also like the fact that he isn't the classical sort of pervert, and is actually a very caring person. Seems like I'm in the minority here, though.

Very interesting show, who knew that cutting hair could be such an... experience. So now that she has shoulder length hair will he still like her? I wonder what they did with the cut off hair. I could picture Kiri braiding it into a rug and sleeping all cozy in it.. drooling. I wonder if Iwai's hair will grow back fast. She will need to keep Kiri around for those 4-6 week trims. ;)

Perhaps next episode she will be all distressed when he comes over and hiding under the covers..
because her hair grew to great length again overnight!
That's what I feel like will happen since her hair was cut in just episode one.
Or maybe it will be like Red Data Girl and set off a series of events and make her power more controllable JUST because of her hair.
Now I have an image of her hair growing and shrinking to her will and acting like extra limbs which she could use to kill..

Guess I have to wait until next week to see :(

Hah... like she will be able to control her hair like tentacles and use it to fight crime.

I do agree that the cutting of her hair might have cause some sort of chain reaction. That man in the preview made it seem like something has begun.
