Kilowatt said: hi! i usually don't discuss anime, but i've just seen the first ep of Mushi-shi and it was like a meditation. I mean it really just took me all the way... it was a whole new experience. the whole ep was so calm it made my body numb for a while, but the best thing about it was, that i did'nt even notice it until after the end. if all this sounds srange to you, you should deffinetly try it :-) Yeah Kilowatt, while I think Bartender has a similar mellow vibe, I will agree Mushi-shi is just uber calming and I think quite enjoyable! The first episode definitely made me curious for more... |
 |
| Pretty good episode. The art is really good, even though I'm not that impressed, since I watched ef yesterday =P This anime seems quite promising. |
| Hahah! We're late watching Mushi-shi. Still kinda not yet taken by the nature of it. But I'll try it to the later episodes. This show looks really interesting and kewl! |
     |
| it seems like a really interesting concept, and i love the animation. :) |

| Oh wow, the quality of this anime is like nothing else. It's like movie grade. Very good first ep, kept me interested :D |
 |
| Hm. Wow is all i have to say. I like how the mood of this anime is and how the first ep was quite interesting and unique to its own. xD Lookin forward to watching more. |
     |
| This episode made me feel like falling asleep(not in the bad way). Really calm. For some reason I feel like everything in life is going to be OK |
  |
| That was oddly deep o_o.... and for some reason it was relaxing o_O.... but it looks like the start of a good Anime ^^ |
     Sig WILL change soon~ |
| really peaceful....I like it... |
| This series gives me a Miyazaki vibe, I really like the subtle tones and atmosphere created. The art style and supernatural dealings are very reminiscent of the Miyazaki films, and I'm loving it. ^^ |
| I can't say I liked it, but i'll watch through it all. |
 |
| Slow episode, but who said that slow can't be good? It was relaxing but didn't make me yawn at all, even when I watched it at 11pm half sleeping. The scenary and the supernatural beings, as MistressMorbid said, reminded me of Miyazaki films. |
| I feel so relaxed now... Also, no-one mentioned it yet, but I really like the music... especially the opening and ending. After the episode ended I stayed on the couch for a minute to smile... |
| So peaceful anime. That's all i can say. And i liked it. [: |
| 10/10 this show is cool but watching it in a merothon isnt at good idea :/ |

| This felt like a movie. I really like the art and story line here, it's so calm and it did remind me of a Miyazaki film like someone stated. I can tell this is promising. |
 |
| I finally got to watch the first episode I started on 7-10 and then accidentally watched episode 26 which really seemed that should of been the first episode but I won't give spoilers. I usually don't watch this kind of anime but it's so relaxing and soothing. |
 |
| o wow, I'm gonna enjoy this |

| Refreshing, That's all I can say at the moment. I totally loved the art, the VA of Ginko was just excellent and gives me a good vibe for some reason (His seiyuu doesn't have that much roles anyway, I was wondering what kind of other characters he has voiced before). Such a peaceful ambience, I loved it. |
| Very calming and beautiful anime. That's my first impression. |
  |
| High animation budget is high. |
 |
| Peaceful is the right word. The anime made quite an impression on me and I don't know why xD I even had to cry at the end (but why...?), nice piano ending. Gonna watch the rest soon. |
| Incredible. |
| Whoa... I didn't expect something that green, slow and peaceful... Thats for first impression; time to watch next episode... :) |
  |
| let me tell you something...i wanted to watch Mushishi since like februrary,and i'm happy i finally got the chance to do so ^^ this 1st episode blew my mind off...i really didn't expect such an amazing first episode i know it is early,but i will rate this from now a 10 because im 99.99% sure i will rate it a 10 after i finish it about the story,it was awesome! :),when the kid blushed at the little girl version of his grandma it was cute :) 5/5 and Mushishi may be the single thing that could become as good as clannad....we'll see :) |

| Watched 2 episodes of this a while back and put on hold and just started again. This episode was as I remembered it. |
| Such junk... |
| Just watched the first episode, and I'm impressed. Very calming, soothing, and leaves me yearning for more. This looks to be a promising show. I love the OP too ^^ |
 |
| Absolutely incredible. I felt so calm when watching this episode. Very peaceful, I think this is gonna be one of my favorites pretty soon. |
 |
| It reminds me of Bartender. |
| decided to start this anime over cause it's been so long since i watched it last! i got to episode 19 but it's going to be lovely watching everything again. the imagery is so goddamn beautiful here, everything so lussssh. this episode made me happy! |
| What attracts me most is the BG animation, they're like 2d character in a 3d world. I haven't grasp everything yet. But, this is like the genesis times, when the world is created. So the originality factor made me want to continue watching. Although the enjoyment factor was in a slow pace. |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| Reading the synopsis was interesting enough to draw me close to this and watch it. This was quite calm yet enjoyable episode.. Though I haven't grasped everything about Mushis yet I find it interesting to know more. |
| I was starting to go for episode 4 before I realized I had an account in MAL ._. But well I liked it. Yes, the atmosphere is very different, and somehow a few hours after watching it some scenes just won't go from my mind. A good sign. I also agree that this isn't for marathon. |
| I thought I'd give this show a go because its rated so highly on MAL. I'm definitely interested. |
     |
| Beautiful and interesting. I also liked the opening. |
 |
| A truly relaxing, peaceful show. I felt captivated all along; it has a unique concept and the atmosphere is equally special, quite mysterious and peculiar. The OP theme is really nice; I was surprised when I noticed it’s in English, though. The ED is so simple yet so wonderful, a single piano piece playing with the credits, ending and fitting the mood of the entire episode. The animation is exceptional and the art with soft earthy tones that give it a lovely, easy on the eyes backdrop. It’s barely the first episode, but I can assure it’ll be a pleasant experience, beyond doubt. |
I think, then procrastinate. Therefore, I am. |
| Very interesting concept and I like the art a lot. It reminds me of xxxHolic but less frantic and without the comedy. |
 |
| This is quite an interesting story and I think it's quite good for now. The first episode is better than what I had expected. |
