ODD, VERY ODD. xD
The whole time, I was wondering "This voice is so familiar" and around at the time Yamashita gets to Irabu-sensei's room, I was so sure. "It's Morimori!" and I had to laugh. xD
Also...this is gonna be moar hilarious since they use the faces of their voice actors. xD
First was Morimori, so next episode is Kusuriuri's voice actor, Sakurai-san! xD
I can't wait.
This series is ODD in a good way and it made me smile and laugh heartily the whole time I watched it. x'3 hehe

No, it's too colorful, isn't a bad thing though. I liked it. It's nice to watch some thing screwed up every once in a while. It's really artistic as well.

Haha. Yeah. Really colourful, far from white... :P

But I can see why people I know around are dropping this anime even before OP comes out. For some of them, it can be little too wierd to watch.

Nevertheless, I liked it.

Whaaaaaaaaa......

I feel like I just watched an animated version of Dr. Phil. I'll watch the next ep, since one of the majors I was considering was Psychology, but most of the stuff in this ep I already learned way back in high school.

wow!

That was the best first episode that I watched since Kaiba--but I hope this one won't go downhill like Kaiba did in the second half of the series.

As for the quirky art style and bizarre directing, I didn't expect any less from the team behind Mononoke. Even if the viewer tuned out all the dialogues and plot details, the creative use of animation and real-life imagery makes watching this an utter enjoyment in itself.

Can't wait for the subs of Ep2 to come out!

Trippy anime is trippy. I hate green with a passion and this episode had a ton of it, that was the only thing I disliked about this ep, everything else was wonderful.

Seems like a pretty decent anime, so far. Injections give me the creeps, so I was sort of freaking out in those scenes.

Looks like it's going to be taking the Ghost Hound approach of throwing out random psychology/psychiatry trivia every episode. Insomnia/Generalized Anxiety Disorder/Placebo Effect are all pretty basic concepts. Hopefully they dive a little deeper in the later episodes.

Not sure what the 3 different versions of the psychiatrist are supposed to represent. Animal head mode, normal (ish) mode, and child mode - wonder if there's any reasoning to that. The main character also seems to have an animal head mode.

No not really but even I, who loves a good trippy series, was seriously lost through half of that. I can't say I'm a fan anyway but I can see why people like it.

I'll give it another episode but I think this is even a bit too out there for me.

yeah give it another episode, since the second one is less weird and easier to make sense of.

I don't really get the direction of this Anime. The abnormal psychology base seems like a natural evolution from what was already present in Mononoke, but unlike Mononoke which has a pretty intense emotional impact (at least at the end of the arcs), I have no idea what to think after episode one.

It's not uninteresting so i'll still watch, but it's not particularly funny, even if it is quite opportunistic with its jokes (the copier dude, who apparently has a permanent erection?). I didn't find the guy's sob story behind his xenophobia particularly sad either. I feel like this is just a trippy abnormal psych lesson.

I'm laughing at all these idiots who can't handle the least bit of weirdness DROPPED omg.

Of course, this is coming from people who think Elfen Lied is good, SO.

Yeah.

I'll pretty much never tire of anime that plays around with Freudian/Jungian weirdness, so this one had me from the get-go. Stylistically it's not as sublime as Mononoke was, but it is bizarre and psychedelic and this is good. Kids who can't handle it should go crying back to their moeshit and boring megalomaniacs eating potato chips.

@naikou: I echo your sentiments regarding syringes, especially gigantic ones full of a milky liquid. (That part was a little bit cheesy, where the dude was all, "You're shooting your liquid into me, ohhhHHHH!!" It's a gender reversal, she's penetrating him, GET IT?)

I so agree with you XD

Before watching this anime I was thinking "the artwork seemed a little too weird for me". But I decided to give it a shot, I'm glad I did. It's pretty cool series especially for people who are fond of psychology like me.
And Irabu is one of the craziest characters I ever got to see in anime. I'm considering adding him to my favourite characters XD

I love the animation but the story doesn't seem that interesting after the first episode. That might change after a couple more episodes, and I'll watch the whole series anyway since it isn't that long.

I just watched this episode after Mononoke ep 1.
Just as expected, the art is something new but this one is just bizarre as hell.
Mixing anime with some live people just like what SHAFT does is just epic. This is much more than SHAFT though. =p
I don't know what to say with the storyline. Confusing yet entertaining. Feels like I'm high!! :D
BTW, the nurse is hot. xD Looking forward for more!!!
