Good start. Love the art, animation and OST - so on point.

Munakata - my favorite king forever.

Awashima's fanservice tho. 5/5 lol

Kuroh & Neko such precious duo.

I can't wait for more Shiro~!

Wasn't planning to watch K this season but decided to watch the first episode and my gawd it was horrible. Bar the great animation what the hell was up with that first 10 minutes of fighting and every single line made during that sounds like the taunts made in cheap fighting games, i got no indication from the rest of the ep that it could be better, really surprised at the score.

Tbh I felt like as if I was watching a music video rather than an anime. Don't get me wrong, the visuals are gorgeous but some of them were over the top that it just feels idk ehhh?? I honestly don't know why I wanted to watch this but I felt like I have to because I saw the previous season and the movie.

Wow, the first 8 minutes were breathtaking, I literally forgot to breathe sometimes.
The fanservice of Seri went a little bit overboard though.
So the new enemy is JUNGLE aka Green King Clan, curious about them since the movie.
So do you think we will see the last unknown king since we now know 6 atm ?

As expected of this series, Music and Art are 10/10 and the cinematics and action scenes are pure eye candy! I'm so hyped now that K project is back :)

If Seri is going to be drawn and animated like that for the rest of the season it's going to be most displeasing.

Bit of a mess of an episode, coming back to K after a while and missing the movie. Initial fight scene and flashback rather flashy, ridiculous and unnecessary.

But otherwise, good to hear that music and see that art again. Glad to have an anime with such a large array of characters too.

No it was not. There was more boob and butt shots in this one episode than there was in the entirety of the first season... AND NEKO WAS NUDE FOR HALF SEASON 1!!!

Half way through the episode, every time it focused on her body I just started yelling "STOP! IT!" At the screen. She NEEDS to get a longer skirt.

In my personal opinion. Flawless episode besides the fanservice. I really am not a fan of unnecesary fanservice and I can't recall the first season being like that..

Either way, loved my dosis of Saruhiko Fushimi.

Music and Animation were top notch as expected, but they truly throw you in to the midst of the story without any insight on what is happening now. I wish this episode was more plot oriented, I could have waited a week to see the fight. The fan service was not bad at all, it was great.

They never sexualized Seri until this episode... I really love it when Fushimi calls Yata-san "MISSAAAAKKIIIIIIIIIIII"

Awesome episode. Though I wonder at what sort of quality drop we'll get for the rest of the series.

I really liked the flashback. It seemed to exist in part so that they could show that all these new characters had been with there respective gangs for a while.

Rikio seems to have gained back some weight.

Good music and pretty good cinematics. Though, why make an anime? Most of the blues and most of the reds are still as dumb as ever.

Honestly, I was kind of disappointed... The character interactions felt REALLY forced and the part with Misaki skate boarding and his fight with Saruhiko afterwards? ... Did the clans really get into formation first before calling out on the two? I couldn't bear it anymore.

The art and music are superb as usual, although Seri should really get a longer skirt OR pants (she'd still look good in them I'd imagine!). The animation is alright, there were some places where the framerate slowed down, but the CG is alright too.

I enjoyed the first season quite a lot, and the movie was decent, but I think I'll wait until more episodes come out before watching this.

Absolutely splendid animation, GoHands has shifted their gears even higher and have put all the effort into creating a visual masterpiece. What GoHands lacks with the quanity, it greatly exceeds it with the quality of an artwork it produces. I have full faith that it is gonna be a visual delight till the very end. And once again the lovely melody goes in hand in hand with the animation. Overall, a joy to watch and a visual treat for the viewers... I'm glad that K has returned once again!

I really loved the way they make the audience enter the world of K with a good 'ol rivalry against and the Reds and the Blues, that really refreshed all the memory I had of the prequel. An insane amount of fan-service put into this but that can be easily forgiven for it was a pilot episode.

I can't help but to agree with all these. And this is like from the last page only. I understand some people like having this in the show, but I personally don't and if I wouldn't love K as much as I do, I probably would drop it now. I just don't think it's needed in this show.

In any case I will keep watching due to my love for the show, but I'm sure every time Seri is being displayed like this I will be internally screaming. I hope I will be able to enjoy the show to the fullest anyway.

It was 90% of what she did this episode. Kill la Kill's camera was better behaved, it spent less time in the uncanny valley, and it less distracting.

The 3DCG animation seemed really choppy to me. Not sure where this "amazing animation" is coming from lol. The choreography was really bad too in comparison to the first season, which had some nice fights in it. Also the moving camera was really nauseating lmao

The fights were really the main selling point for me during the 1st season, but this was disappointing.

No matter what anyone says about K the one thing you can't deny about it is that is a gorgeous anime, like I seriously can't get over how good it looks sometimes. The art, the animation, the camerawork, and even the music are all so fucking good. Great first episode overall, can't wait to see Shiro reunite with Kuro and Neko.

Yeah i pretty much agree here, the fan service was way way over the top and i also agree that this series does not need it in the slightest. Everytime seri went to fight her clothes were either torn off or she had boob and ass shots. I want to see her fight and kick ass.

I love this anime... The fanservice was a more than usual but that was just for first 7 minutes which were pure fangasm. Im sure it won't be as much rest of season....

I tend to disagree though...

I thought the female fanservice in first season / movie was a nice counter to all the people who call this yaoi.

and that 5 second of boob jiggle and ass really doesnt = mroe fanservice than neko being nude a bunch n season 1

Still daring to say the fan service in this episode was more visible and brought to focus than all of Neko in the first season.

I really don't mind moderate amount of ecchi, and even if I don't really like it, sometimes it's nice. Like in the first season everything was fine, but this episode just made me double check the genres of this show.

It's ridiculous, like ok ass shot, cool cool, but why make it look like her skirt is completely see-trough? And I actually liked the part where her clothes were cut, except no, they took it too far.

Anyway I hope they will cut down on the fan service so it'll be more reasonable. I just love K so much but and I wish to enjoy it as much as possible.
