Now imagine watching it in a 1080p BD version with TV broadcast colors and proper sound?

It looks like Kaisar messed up there. Amira did look like she was prepared, but he had to "rescue" her.

And i'll wonder if the demons are getting more then they bargained for. After all, Amira stole the God Key under the gods nose on her own.

Unless they want to make *one* of the potential successors to Satan stronger than the gods, she should have no real trouble. Unless maybe Kaisar "intervenes" again..

And the ending..i always forget the ending. Don't know why though, i absolutely love it.

In any case, the show is steadily and rapidly increasing in score as it can be seen here:
http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1278945


Too bad it will probably never reach an 8 on this site because people rated the first episode low and dropped the anime.

This is how it was for me. I didn't like the 1st episode. The 2nd one was pretty good. The 3rd one was great and this episode even better. I'm glad I didn't drop this but it seems a lot of people did and so it will have a lot of poor scores by those who dropped it. Any newcomers who later watch the 1st episode might feel the same way. First impressions count!

You need to watch 1/5 of the whole show otherwise your score won't count, so soon all the scores of people who dropped this at 1 episode will be invalid and the overall score of the show will rise.

It was one intense episode.

Lol...Amira said "Who's that?" Your mother?". to Favaro."

It was nice to see about Favaro's and Kaiser's past.

That sea monsters vs zombies was great.

It does delete the scores of those who haven't finished the show, but I am unsure of at what completion rate it cuts it off at. (1/5th watched or any amount watched) Regardless, scores of those who have dropped it will be removed, that much is a sure thing.

It's odd though - episode 1 is what made me want to continue the show. I dropped Cross Ange, Ookami Shoujou and others based on their first 5 minutes, but I kept watching Bahamut.

Was the first episode really that bad to some people?

Yeah I'm sure.

"How are top anime/manga scores calculated?
Only scores where a user has completed at least 1/5 of the anime/manga are calculated.

Example: If you watched a 26 episode series, this means you would had to have watched at least 5 episodes (26/5.2)=5. We're using 5.2 instead of 5 so we get a whole number for "most" series."

Let the hype flow people, this is only getting better. It's just so damn engaging and witty, and pretty much gives us what we want instead of teasing and trying to get away with holding off on backstory, plot info, etc. I mean they pretty much made fun of shows that tease at backstory or something similar. After Kaisar was cut off by the scumbag swindler when he started telling his story, Rita's face got all crabby, and then later she said "okay now tell me what you were going to say earlier" HOW OFTEN do you hear that line in an anime?? And then Kaisar brushing it off with his comment was definitely a parody to how some shows avoid revealing things, only to have Rita whack him and force him to reveal for us her.

It's just stuff like that that makes this so perfect. Not to mention the character interaction staying fresh and slowly establishing genuine relationships between these unexpected wacky characters.

Knew Favaro was going to be involved with the bandits, but it was worse than I thought. He straight up betrayed Kaiser, though that bit was pretty glossed over so I trust it will be cleared up later. I like how they took it even further, true bandit style with Barossa betraying everyone with the help of a demon that will most certainly be important. Now I'm expecting Favaro and Kaisar to somehow come to a nice resolution while facing and taking out the demon that basically set both of their fathers up to die.

They've just set up all the characters for really good development and resolutions. I dunno which one I'm more excited for, but this is really shaping up to be something special. It's already the biggest surprise of the year, that's for sure.

The action sequence was just hilariously perfect. With Rita zombifying all kinds of things, the Pirates of the Caribbean action feel, and the damn crab. And I'm with everyone that can't wait to see Favaro and Rita interact.

Animation is great, OST is getting better and better, and OP and ED are perfect and growing on me more with each episode. Especially the OP, cause this show is fucking metal.

Another great episode, they teased us once again about how Rita is functioning properly and I like the backstory as to the whole favaro/kaiser hostility. Kinda funny that both of them actually got played by this dude here, I certainly didn't expect it, especially after the crab battle.

EDIT: They also changed the ED song a little.

You shouldn't be able to rate/review an anime like this until it has at least finished airing...

I never rate a show until I've seen all the episodes (with the exception of really long animes like Naruto and One Piece). That's like rating a movie after having seen only 10 minutes or rating a book after having read only the first few pages...

This show just keeps on impressing me! Wasn't surprised that Favaro and Kaiser were childhood friends, but I am surprised about the betrayal part. The battle between sea monsters and zombies was epic. Loving loli Sawashiro Miyuki character, she's great! Also, THAT ENDING. Favaro and Rita to the rescue?

All four episodes have been great. The quality is consistent too. If anything, it gets better with every episode. I think this is the best anime this season, in terms of originality. It has that feeling of watching a summer blockbuster.

Ummmm, I have a problem with this that is if I dont like a show within 1-3 episodes I am not going to bother watching all 13-24 and will just put a 'Dropped' tag on it. Probably giving it a score of 1-5 as it just wasn't entertaining to watch at all and I am not a masochist/dont have the time to bother going through all of it for what ever boring plot it comes up with later on. Those types of tv shows do exist you know.


There are also alot of shows that start out slow but then they pick up halfway through the season. I haven't watched the anime you linked, but I agree that there are some animes that don't pick up at all. After having watched the first couple of episodes of Captain Earth, which I thought were pretty bad, I still continued to watch it hoping that it would get better. It didn't, and even after watching all 25 episodes I ended up giving it a 2 out of 10. Still, I prefer watching all episodes before rating a show.

This was exactly the kind of fun over-the-top action that I wanted since Kill la Kill promised something of the likes. I literally do not know what's going to happen next and what it's going to consist of, and that just makes me VERY excited for the next episode.

Though I do agree that the sound design could use a bit more work just to refine the overall immersion, though it's still compensated by the awesome soundtrack implemented. I actually can't for anything more for the series, even if it starts burning down ton hell by the end (which I really doubt).

This anime keeps getting better and better! Finding out that that man was Favaro's father's friend actually betrayed his father was pretty crazy. I really like how Rita just tags along with Kaisar. xD Pirate Zombies and Fishmen, absolute chaos. :P That ending was seriously unexpected though. Both Kaisar and Amira were taken. Honestly can't wait to see what happens next. As always, the animation and OST is amazing. :D

Because unleashing the kraken would have been cliche, they unleashed a giant crab instead. But wait, why stop there? Let's add zombie pirates controlled by a dead loli who wields the wand (or was it a cane) of doom, trident-wielding sea creatures and of course an incredible display of Amira's badassness. Genius. And what was the thing that came down from the sky? A tentacle? A giant tongue?

Action-fantasy at its finest. All 4 episodes have been 5/5 in my book.

I love favaros reaction when he's faced with something Like bahamut or that giant lightning shooting tentacle. He nice to see how fearful he is of the sheer scale. Same in the animes opening scene with the king.
