With Suwabe's voice, I now love Worick even more. :3

I like the adaptation so far. :) Nice to know how Nicolas actually talks like (also, sexy voice).

Man now this was the bombdig. Cool af, entertaining, gritty, dark, brutal and even a bit of dark humor for good measure.

Looking forward to the rest of this.

I liked the first episode and am happy with the main cast. Two cool dudes plus one hot chick.

Nicholas is a beast. I wonder why he has two voice actors listed for him though. I wonder if it means he'll have a backstory.

I wonder how hard it was to find a voice actor who could sound like a deaf person and a psycho at the same time.

Loving the vibe that the anime is giving of and the two main character (Nicolas and Worick) look badass.
Both the OP and the ED were great.

I really liked it! I'm surprised too, but the characters are already unique and it's nice to see something so different from my usual sort of anime.

I don't usually watch anime like this, but I have to admit this one was very good. Nicholas became my favorite character right away, because disabled people~~.
I hope it stays great. I've never read the manga, but when I heard about this anime, it was one I was waiting for and I'm glad it delivered.

OP was pretty catchy too.

This is the great thing about adaptations.
So thats what Nick sounds like when he talks. Now I cant wait to see how he talks when he was a kid.
Damn well it was really what I expected of the series. The OP n ED are excellent too.
The Art of Shipping is no mere game. It can be small skirmishes to huge nation size wars.
Of course some will claim their ship is the BATTLESHIP but they all do. This is why battles occur because of factions fighting each other to justify their favourite ship.
And thus SHIP to SHIP combat occurs almost anytime even now.
Beware, Threading into the Shipping battlefield will be bloody.... What are you waiting for?

is it early 2000?? feels good watching a anime with mature themes without being "to edgy"

plus an deaf main character is a first to me interesting.


i'm curious to if this will turn out real good or just be our bloodbath of action for the season.

Really enjoyed this first episode. I've always taken a liking to American Gangster-esque things so this definitely piqued my interest. Though the title, "Gangsta". If this was american it would be cringey but it being japanese people using a word from AAVE I can't really call them corny for it.

Animation is kinda iffy.

The main characters look like they were taken out of a bara manga. I love it. It's a nice contrast to the usual scrawny main characters we get.

Lol, good thing I watched the official subs on EOA. Seriously though, I wish bad fansubbers would know how much their subs can effect people's enjoyment/understanding of the animes. It's butchery at it's finest.

I still remember the atrocious subs we got when Nanastu first aired.

REMEMBER THE TRANSLATOR'S NOTES WHERE THEY BASHED YOUTUBERS? (and how they translated one word into 3 sentences). Wasn't that guy (Obama-kun?) kicked later for google translating the whole thing too?

Yep. It's a good thing he stopped translating around ep 2.

Tsutchie's doing the music? I'm sold. Loved his work in Champloo.

Now this is the kind of show that should come to mind when one thinks of anime (hope I can still say this at the end). Good stuff so far.

I am INCREDIBLY pleased with this.
Nico's voice. No censorship on the violence/blood. Staying true to the manga. The music.

I can't wait for more! 8D

And man, I'm not usually a person to say "go read the manga" but people...please go read the manga. It's incredible.

Finally, an anime that isn't moe. First episode met my high expectations.
I was pleasantly surprised that one of the main guys was deaf. That makes this anime even more unique for me.

Nicolas Brown is so badass. Probably going to be my Best Guy of the season.
Love that moment when he kicked the car.



Alex is a babe. Them's monster tits.
Looking forward to see more character development.
