| Urban environment like Durarara, color palette of Gatchaman Crowds, and supernatural powers? I am going to enjoy this show. |
 |
| 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! Ammar01 said: 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. |

| Wow, Murasaki in red looks like Vash the Stampede. This series seems better than the others so far at least. |
| it was a bit boring imo... (too predictable) I'll give it one or two more episodes, if I doesn't get more entertaining I'll just drop it |
- I only draw freestyle! - |
| Damn poor Ayase becomes a prostitute because she didn't win in Oreimo :(. |
| damn sleeping around with college girls.. |
 |
| 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. |
| I love the comedy.. that rich old dude must've died from herpes... he fucking deserved it.. awesome 1st episode but man.. my eyes hurt whenever theres a fight scene... those lights, those colors... they should change that.. though I think that wouldn't happen |
 |
| 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~! |
| Tumblr: Gigglepud My one rec for anyone who likes good storytelling: Play Zero Escape/Ai the Somnium Files |
| I like the art, the characters and the settings, reminds me of K.. i dont find the comedy funny though and im not sure about the story,. still looking forward to it.. |
 |
| actually... good? i wasn't expecting much from this but wow honestly, out of what's aired so far it's probably my fav ^^ reminds me a little of black cat with the cases and all :) |
| 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. |

| Eh |
| It was OK. Gonna try a few more.. |
| Keep moving forward |
| 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. |
| Amazing OP and ED. Enjoyable episode. |
| meh i was pretty bored. most interesting part was all the girls being prostitutes. so, that's what money can buy you, not bad. 5/10 so far |
    |
| It was fine, expected a bit more tbh.Well, we will see how it goes, for now i get DRRR! - K - DtB vibes. 6/10 hopefully it will get better later on. |
 |
| I also thought this had Durarara!! and Darker than Black vibes and loving it. |
 |
| 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. |
| Yep definitely Durarara reminiscent with the overall style and setting, but I can tell I'm gonna like this one. |
 |
| 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. |
 |
| Wow. I went in with no expectations whatsoever and ended up enjoying it. Thank god, winter has been a snooze fest for me. Will pick up. |
| Wow that scene with the rich kid hahahah. I'm really enjoying this and can't wait to see the characters in action. |
[center] |
| Koneko and Hajime :o XD Birthday casually storing food in Ratio's car Enjoyed this, especially the music. Let's see how the rest of this pans out |
 |
| DRRR vibe :) Dreams, numbers, vaults...Inception? haha. "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... ... |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| pretty good episode, i like the characters and it was pretty funny. too bad in this case all their work was for nothing lmao |
 |
| It was actually pretty entertaining.. those colours though. |
Alone on a Friday night? Remember that DIO did nothing wrong! |
| AWESOME. But I have a hunch it'll turn weird and detestable near the end of the series but just a hunch. Reminds me of Gatchaman though(x |
| nice, and hopefully the next episode will be much better ^^ |
 |
| I love this one!!!! Like DRRR. Seiyuu and characters very well liked. |
| 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. |
| Didn't really feel like a completely original story - feel like i've seen something like this before. But I'll give it a try, maybe it gets better and more interesting. |
| 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. |
| count me in |
| Cty Best mid |
| I love Hajime and Koneko. Brithday, is that seriously his name? Art, Nice, lol this is some seriously weird naming sense. This reminds me of Tantei Inaba but a much epic and a bit less comedic version of it. I didn't expect this to be this lovable! 9/10 |

| Thoughts: 1:24 breathtaking OP song. i even cried man tears. 4:36 ya… the jobs thing. Not really into episodic type animes because once u get hooked, it just ends too fast and can't enjoy it enough. I really can't stand those 'monster of the week' series. 5:25 what a douchebag… throwing that chicken in the glove compartment 8:43 the sound effects coming from that tiger sounds like the cape from super mario from SNES 11:08 can't stand the douchebag who leaves eggs in people's car 12:57 there's no way the red-haired bad dude can remember those complex numbers 18:05 creepy grandma maid wanting to wear high school girl uniform… Just terrible 21:33 dem dirty mags… actually look good ------------ Overall: 1. The OP song was so awesome it made me cry. I cried after 5 seconds into the OP. Even though the melody fell 'flat' in the song, the build up to the melody put me in an incredible trance. Man tears ftw. 2. ED song was average. 3. Those '1 second black screen flashes' really got annoying and strained my eyes a bit. 4. It just got so boring in the first half of this episode. I just found the story & what the cast was doing boring. 5. Those "super powers" are just so dumb in the 2nd half. 6. Voice acting is always top notch. graphics and music are good. Characters are just ok. Story seems boring, episodic & 'monster of the week' vibe. I intend on dropping this series but I'll watch 1-2 more episode before dropping. The OP song was so awesome. I just can't believe I found it in a crappy anime. EP 1: 3/10 |
| This episode brought up a great question, that being why is being a broke hero so glamorized? I would have took that safe job contract without even thinking about it, but that makes me evil for not wanting to live on the edge barely surviving right? |

| I like the character designs. Unfortunately the episode had me bored from start to finish. Dropped. I'll pick it up again if I see the score go up. |
 |
| that was fun to watch. def excited for next ep |
| Nice character design, good animation, great seiyuu line-up. The pace is a bit too fast but it's okay, 1st episode after all. Seems interesting, gonna watch it. |
| Did Birthday just throw a chicken wing in the dashboard for later and attempt to eat a raw egg? O_o He will be the first death in this series from food poisoning |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
