As I have recently cleared up my PTW list, I have now been looking back at my dropped list and seeing if there was anything that I wanted to give a 2nd chance to. I picked up Beyond the Boundary, it was actually KIND OF decent, but underwhelming. I picked up Charlotte, it showed promise, but wasn't good. I picked up Guilty Crown, same case; it wasn't good. I tried picking up Hyouka again today, but it again just really wasn't for me. I have a number of titles in my dropped list that many of not most would consider to be masterpieces, but I already know I lack the interest for them and that to sit through them would be next to a chore. As for airing anime, I am currently in the Winter 2022 season as it is coming to a close. Finished Platinum End recently, and put it at the bottom of my list with the one completed 1/10 that I have. Ousama Ranking was decent but a disappointment. Sabikui Bisco really fell off as well. I'm not enjoying Attack on Titan THAT much. I have this one other random isekai with its own gimmick that's alright I guess. Tokyo 24th Ward is quite the stale piece of bread but I'm almost done it so I don't want to drop it. I did overall enjoy Dress-up Darling and especially Takagi-san S3, and 86 part 2.... was phenomenal. But other that that, there wasn't much to blow me away recently since the end of Demon Slayer S2. I dropped a total of 11 anime this season.

TL;DR, long story short I just need a break from all this mediocrity, and just watch something that SLAPS HARD.... so I decided to watch Kill la Kill again, one of the 5 titles that I have given a 10 out of 10 to....

...and shit. It's even better than I remember.

Quite a first impression. I've never really understood the appeal of fanservice but Ryuuko and Satsuki are making me feel things other anime girls haven't.

O episódio foi interessante, e nos ingressou bem pro universo do anime, pode conter alguns clichês, mas o intrigante universo desse anime consegue cobrir bem os "problemas" dos clichês

Finally gave a try to this and that was aggressively boring, it's a bunch of fireworks I'm probably too old to enjoy, a shame I guess...

Very anime-y but judging it's from Trigger I was not disappointed with the great animation and style.

that was a really interesting start
i was swinging back and forth between watching this or durarara! and i don't regret starting with Kill la Kill first
the animation was epic for a 2013 anime and the comedy was really good too.
i'm gonna give this episode a 9/10, to the next one

Whatever expectations i might have had were completely and utterly evaporated by the sheer craziness that is this first episode. If the standard this episode set keeps up, i can definitely see why people hold TRIGGER in such high regard

pretty fun filled episode. i knew it would be ecchi, comedy and action but didn;t expect it all in a single episode. very well done. we find out about thw world, the power system, our mc's motives. matoi blushing cuz of the short uniform tho ahaha

5/5 episode. just saw that this is a trigger anime too. binging my second trigger anime today lol. first cyberpunk and now this.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

This is intense. the plot, the setting, the action.. everything is on the spot. I like it.

Episode one was definitely.. if I may say, it was serendipitously good. I genuinely enjoyed it.

Expectations met. hope the proceeding episodes are just as good. :)

I just had a constant "Wtf is even going on?" thought in my head. But not the type where you have to laugh, but because I didn't get the appeal of the first episode.

However, I think the artstyle is cool... Yeah that is the only reason why I dont wanna give it just 1 star.

Kill la Kill an anime I've had my eye on for sometime, and after one episode I can say that it has lived up to my expectations. I didn't know much about this show coming into it, all I really knew was the fan service was on another level.

Though that wasn't event the main highlight of this first episode, the action throughout was amazing. Especially that big guy Gamagori. He popped off at the start showing that other guy that he's on another level. The cast of characters is quite unique and I personally already like them all. Especially that girl who thinks she's already best friends with Ryuko, the way she acts is so cute.

The end sequence was also very intense with that boxing guy and Ryuko fighting. This new outfit Ryuko has is very "appealing", I really like it and I hope we learn more about what it actually is. I cant wait to learn about what happened to Ryukos dad and who killed him.

Holy shit. That felt like 5 minutes. It looks pretty damn good so far. Nice job, Trigger.
Yeah, I'm surprised it was 24 minutes rather than 12.

I always wanted to watch this anime for a long time but I never did because I got busy watching other stuff, but today I said fuck it, let's finally watch this thing and what can I say, the 1st episode was awesome and wacky, it's exactly what I envisioned from this anime and it didn't disappoint and I'm excited for the next episode, I hope they keep it up, my expectations are pretty high at this moment.

I watched the 1st episode in English dub and Japanese, and the English dub seems to be on point too, it has great voice acting, so I will stick with the English dub for now. And the opening is awesome as well.

5/5 episode

I kind of liked this, but I kind of didn't. It reminds me of when I tried to watch Fire Force and I didn't like the fast action. And this was pretty silly but also grim? I'll keep going, but I don't see the huge appeal of this so far. It's certainly interesting visually for the time.

I've watched this show before, back in 2022 when it was available on Netflix, good times but I was too lazy and never finished it, I dropped it like in the episode 12 or 13 I don't remember but here I am to finish what I started long ago.
The first time I didn't wanted to watch the show because it was ecchi and it was crap for perverts but I decided to give it a try because I watched some clips on yt and some memes and I enjoyed it very much.
I love the animation, the art style and the designs, are peak, as usual Trigger doesn't disappoints and this show is one of the reasons I love that studio so much. A girl arrives in a strange town and a very strange school with uniforms that give powers, the "Goku uniforms", I wonder if they are named like that because of the dragon ball character. Episode one and lots of action already, what a reality check they have to Ryuko and poor Mako, had nothing to do with all of this and ended in that situation hahaha. Good episode, I enjoyed it very much, I would say more things about it but because I've watched it before I can't tell too much.
