| ED is great. I don't like male MC, female MC is nice. Art is average, many 3D CG, which is meh. Not bad in general I think. |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| Ooooh, I wasn't expecting much but I was surprised but how GREAT the animation is! The backgrounds are really interesting and creative. And the movements were so fluid. I'm just trying not to read any spoiler from now on, heh. Great 1st episode and world-building. |

| Huge amount of info dumping, if you cannot even tell a story do not dump money in anime. Dropped |
Hisio said: Huge amount of info dumping, if you cannot even tell a story do not dump money in anime. Dropped For someone who endured the Fate/Zero info dumping In the first episode, you sure are harsh on this one. |

Tylaen said: Hisio said: Huge amount of info dumping, if you cannot even tell a story do not dump money in anime. Dropped But they are telling a story. That's not the way to tell the main story. You can always go ahead and add a 20 sec summary of the world like shingeki no kyoujin does at the beginning of their episodes. But half of the first episode is a dialogue just to explain stuff to viewers. I hate this kind of info dump (I hate alll kind of info dump). |

If you don't like dialogue In general, it's a good thing you dropped this because there will be nothing but dialogue going from here. Yes, it is a way to tell a story and one you seem to disapprove of and one you've endured before that's far worse, In the form of Fate/Zero episode 1. |

You didn't understand me :P I didn't say I do not like dialogue, I do not like info dumping like the viewers are kids. Fate/zero had a subtle way of transmitting the story for example: the story of the holy grail was told by kayneth to his students, it was a logical manner of "info dumping", to teach students. Now in this show, two characters completely aware of the plot begin to discuss it between them like they had something to learn from each other, which is wrong. |

Now in this show, two characters completely aware of the plot begin to discuss it between them like they had something to learn from each other, which is wrong. In terms of knowledge In any new show, the audience Is always the kid In the room. That the Fate/Zero anime puts the infodumbing In smart places does not make it "subtle", it just makes it more tolerable which I think Is the word you're searching for. The infodumbing you're referring to starts around the 10 minute mark and ends around the 14 minute mark. For one character, namely the female, it is a way to lead up to the point of revealing that the time of the revival Is soon to come and the braves beeing killed off. Ofcourse, this can be easily brushed off as a trick, as much as any convenient situation In the beginning of Fate/Zero as they are just starting to make you familiar with the setting. For example, the period of time where Waver Is literally entering a library to tell us a large portion of information. Though it Is more graceful than the example In this episode, it Is no less ham fisted. Nevertheless, I hope you'll return when the anime Is finished. |

| Yeapp great LN adaption for the first episode. I love the fight scenes and animation.. awesome. |
| Interesting first episode for sure, but it was weighed down with the exposition dump. Too much backstory for one episode. That said, it was fun and there's quite a bit of potential. I sincerely hope it isn't a rushed adaption. I also LOVE the Aztec (? might be one of the other indigenous peoples of Central or South America) setting. Definitely unique; I can't recall seeing any other ancient Native American culture used as setting before. |

| Impressive production values, and set up for a large scale adventure. |
 |
| THIS WAS AWESOME I AM THE STRONGEST MAN IN THE WORLD HIME-SAMA BUNNY BEST GIRL! <3 |
 |
| That was extremely enjoyable. I like Adlet already, he seems like a fun guy. I enjoyed the segment where he was imprisoned, even though in actuality nothing much really happened. The princess is also quite the fun character, I anticipate more interaction between Adlet and her. :) The ED was great, and it hints at the tone the series will take up later on, which is awesome! |

CKL said: Was that scene with the red sky a dream? He didn't even acknowledge it. We aren't sure, but it most likely was. |
| Pretty damn epic first episode! I just love the atmosphere that this anime has with the whole Astec aspect to it! Really interesting. Let's see what this anime will offer us of a story! |
 |
| Heh... That was pretty interesting. I felt a little uncomfortable with how the story was just dumped on the viewer, but I'll forbear further thoughts til we get a better understanding of what's going on. My first impressions are positive. |

| I guess this could be decent. I wasn't fan of how they handheld the exposition either and i do not like smarmy pretty boys but i will keep watching. |
| Some nice animation on that first episode! The story seems nice and interesting as well, let's see how this keeps going :) |
 |
| Very good first episode, the setting, the music and the animation were just on point! Very intruiged to see what happens next. |

| Don't really like that protagonist. He's too arrogant it's not funny. Maybe he'll grow on me, in time. Also his name is weird too. And so does everyone else's for that matter. Well for the episode I feel that's it's rushed. Lol it's definitely rushed. Not sure if that's a good thing or not but I got high hopes for this show. |
 |
| Pretty great episode. I've found my waifu. To be exact, she's the reason I'm watching this. :) UBW? Why am I being reminded of 5D's? Well, the concept of it if I'm remembering right. |

| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| I actually couldn't tell whether the MC was a guy or a girl until he opened his mouth lol.... But so far not a fan of him, he seems like your typical arrogant/stupid male MC. Hopefully his personality improves a little as the show goes on. Other then that this was an OK first episode, just a lot of info dump. I'm hoping it picks up a bit with episode 2 and that the other characters are a bit more likeable. |

| Knew that maid was the princess even before she said he was pretty dumb. Lol how would someone keep emselves sane in that prison for that long. |
| great start! for a impatient person like me (i can't stand slow starts) this start was fluent. no unnecessary scenes and also we saw a little about what main character can do. |

Felt to me like he simply didn't say what he guessed rather than not guessing anything. |

| This seems interesting, looking forward to seeing the rest of the heroes. |

| hes going interrupting the match and then hes fighting stile, it still cracks me up |
| The story seems cool but the biggest point so far is the realisation, i'm very impressed it looks like a movie or something like this. |
 |
| Really got surprised for the very original aesthetics, a "Asteca-like" fantasy world. Man, japaneses should stop of repeating the same RPG european medieval (and isekai) stories, with the same set, same races, how boring. Praise the creative authors like this one! |

SomeguyBlaze said: Hey does anyone knows where to continue the Ln after the anime? At vol 2. Anime adapted the full vol 1. |
|
| So wait, dude's not going to ask why the princess cum one of the brave heroes look so similar to that maid he had an insightful conversation with, before he got thrown down in the prison for his indefinite sentence?? Lol. Main dude sure looked dumb, but fine he's a good kind of dumb, for now atleast. The setup isn't anything out of ordinary, I mean demon god.. heroes.. we've seen it all plenty, though still I've a bit of an idea of what this series is like, so I'm fine with it. Animation looked top-notch. |
 |
| This is already looking superb, especially with the Aztec style setting. |

| An okay start for a fantasy show I guess. Why is the princess the only one with bunny ears though and how did she hide them when she pretended to be a maid? |
