THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Full episode is out now.

Pretty much had the same thoughts as the half episode. Overall kinda meh so far but they established the mechanics well. Hope they can focus a bit on the main characters later on and their relationships. A lot of generic moments tbh but I wasn't expecting the MC to get attacked at the station. Aoi seems to be badass at least. Oh and that ED song is actually good.

This sure has a bouncy plot.
Anyways, finished the 1st episode using Watakushi's subs, for those who were wondering "SUBS FUCKIN' WHERE?!".

Damn, Sakurai is a badass along with Iwaizumi.
Those punches were charged with ovar 9000 powerlevel.

Not sure how I feel about the CGI trains though.
OP & especially ED was amazing. +1.

And, please don't make the male protagonist a weak one. >.<
OGM DAT ENDCARD 11/10

From an objective point of view, this show is terrible and cliche, but from a pure entertainment point of view...it was still pretty bad.

Just didn't do anything for me. The characters are pretty boring and generic, the only entertaining one being the macho guy. Some character s are utterly useless and there for fanservice (cowtits, for example). Art was okay, noticing a lot of QUALITY in the first episode, though that fight sequence looked pretty good.

I also find it hilarious how literally no sub group picked this up yet.

So, are they fighting against Ayn Rand minions or what

It's super average at best. And those CG trains, god.
Nice ED btw.

She kinda looks like Super Sonico (except without the headphones).

So this is going to be kinda like Baccano except with subpar action,no intriguing storyline and tits...okay then.

The feel of the show reminds me of Hataraku Maou. Its good but not as great.

Art is great but they had to use the most typical Lucky sukebe ecchi fall/drop/however its called without throwing on a gag-sense u.u Another guilty pleasure for me.

I really enjoyed the fight scene. Hope they throw on someathat more.

interested to what goes on with the story, hope the plot doesnt go bland.
RIP ZAQ T_T She was so good but what is this shit song. They should have featured Lil Wayne on that rap part.

Wuts up with the requotes of this image for this show in particular. Lol
Pretty much every show so far had boobshots whether it was a boy or girl.

- Fate
- Bakumatsu Rock
- free
- Sabagebu
- (about to go watch Glassip)

None got this much attention. Lol

Oh... damn... before the summer season began, I told myself I'd wait for how this series was received on the forums. But then, I couldn't stand it anymore and had resolved to watch the first episode... after waiting hrs for the subs to come out, I decided to check the forums...

This single post has made me reconsider my actions again... -_-... hahaha

the first episode seems to want to rush through the training part, so the setting and characters introduction was poorly done.

Art and animation was nice, there's fanservice but I can tolerate it. Will keep watching this, the premise sounds promising though

ED's catchy :)

Boob service...eh well I've seen a lot of shows already. I've been desensitized.

I actually thought it's a good decision not to drag out the intro-trainee part and just get it over with in one episode.

The train stuff kind of overwhelmed me a bit. I wasn't really getting any of it lol. Are the models they talked about real or did they just make it up? Also, coal trains need 400 kg of coal for 1 km? If that's true then woah. Worthless info but cool to know.

PLOT abundance aside, this is quite an interesting premise. Very unique indeed.. train otakus would definitely rejoice.

The fight animation was surprisingly fluid too. Tbh I didn't know what to expect at the beginning nor had any idea how they were gonna make a story out of this but this seems promising.

Also, THAT END CARD!!

I just watched the episode and I have completely accepted that there'll be fanservice in the anime. You can't judge a show just from the booby shots and such. Plus the animation and music for the op/ed were AWESOME!! Jun Fukuyama got another annoying character, but it's alright, I can deal with it. It's all about tolerance, people. You just gotta have a lot of it.

Hmm, I see a lot of negative opinions about this anime simply because of a single Fanservice scene. I dont think it will stoop so low as to add multiple fanservice scenes every episode. It`s not a bad anime, the MC is maybe weak, but he`s smart and shows it, the rest also have their traits and negatives. Characters - OK. Story, rather plain, but also interesting. Story- OK. Trust me I didn`t go into this thinking it`d be even good at best but now I seem to like it more.

But people please, One fanservice scene doesn`t mean the end of the world.

I was expecting a problem-solving, analytic type of anime. Instead I get national security bringing justice. I like this.

Nothing really stood out yet, felt very generic. Sakurai's pretty badass.

All aboard the hype train choo~ choo~~ (pun intended)

I am actually pretty hyped about this show. Aside form that PLOT, I am interested in the actual real plot and I think this episode was a fun with good little bit of action and it did its job of introducing the characters pretty well.
looking forward for the next episode .. definitely will keep watching !

Plus, that ED is a killer !!

Now that's quite the jump you did there young lady lol.

Shoot the molest to death huh, that's quite the course of action to take lol.

Yeah... deam boob physics!

They're team LEET!

Of course... the accident moment where you end up in a compromising situation...

So we've got two smart characters and two strong characters aha.

I'll give it a few more episode before deciding what to do with it.

7/10 at the moment.

What is wrong with people who are being turned away from this show just because of one fanservice-y gif?

Let me tell you, this show is very promising. The plot is unique and the characters are not dull, rather refreshing. The MC isn't a pimp. The girl you are fretting over, isn't what you think she is. She can talk normally, and isn't like all those 'heavily equipped' female characters in some of other ecchi show. Moving on to the redhead, she is a badass and isn't your cliche tsundere who makes a big deal out of everything. Even Shou is a bro. Tell me, since when we had an anime about trains' inspection? It reminds me of Ryuugajou Nanana no Maizoukin tbh. Sure, these two don't have the same type of plot but they do have the similar feel to them.

That was an awesome episode. Been a while since I have felt this hyped for an action show. The ED had a distinct feel to it, too. I liked it.

9/10, fav. show so far.

Okay some Points of this are not bad but for the first Episode everything to rushed. Would have prefered a better introducion of the Characters currently if i think about it i nearly know nothing about them. Besides 2 of the like Trains, the red haired likes fighting and nothing more.

This besides im excited how this will continue and how they form a Story out of this. Currenty not sure in which Direction it will develop.

3(2.5)/5 from me for the first Episode

This would've been better if it didn't try to take itself so seriously.

The relationships in this series are, again, blatantly obvious. The reason why titty-monster joined the JNR is also obviously the MC. Then there's the bitchy tsundere-typish character that just so happens to be a karate master, or something like that.
+ the macho sidekick

Cliche much?

That amount of PLOT on the first page.

Well, story seems interesting for me.
Action is good too.
I would probably pick this one up this season since we rarely got a show about bouncing boobies trains anyway.

Putting aside some of the (badly executed) cliches aside, the ep's pretty descent. Really like their fight scenes and that ED.

Don't really like MC and haruka atm though due to their generic and bland personality introduced, hoping the later shows would prove me otherwise.

The fact that they used a romantic insert OST for the boob grab was, well... strange. Not a bad thing but still strange for me.

Hmm i dont know what to say about this episode, for me it feeld generic, Neither bad nor good. It is an interesting concept especially the info about the railways and train types, so people who are train fan boys will surely love this.

I will see how it will go on for a bit furhter before i make my final decision but if i hate to rate the first episode i'd say it is Average rating for me at least.

Oh and for the record. I cant believe so many people are being so turned off because of one Fan service scene. This is Anime of course it will have a fan service scene and compared to most other shows, it is quite bland. I tell u i still cant believe i find people still bickering over a fan service scene.

Reasonably enjoyable so far. For me, the fanservice was too much. There's nothing inherently wrong with a bit of fanservice but it just felt out of place.

I'll give it a couple more episodes before I decide if I drop it or not.

That ED is great though!
