Holy shit.

Nice going, Rin. Very good episode, better than the first one I thought. It was all a bit more tastefully done than in episode 1 I thought. Mimi is great, and I also laughed at the scene when she was praising that über-computer. :D

So Angel's Don't Cry and Flowers Don't Shed Tears either, huh. Looking forward to more.

Great episode, plenty of yuri and boobies too =P
Also, men are ripped off when they get spore. Woman get to live forever and cannot be killed, while we get superhuman habilities (and become dumb as a rock xD) for 3 weeks, and then we die =P
Can't wait for the next episode. Too bad it will only air next month =/

I watched episode 2 this morning. Awesome episode so far. The characters and story are pretty good so far. I liked yuri action, that's one of two reasons I want to watch Mnemosyne. I lol'd at computer scene. Lots of Boobies. Few of sex scenes.

Oh yes, Kugimiya Rie + loli lesbian = WIN.

The only thing I particularly liked about this show was the voicework. It tries waaaaaaaaay to hard to be "cool" and that just makes it fail. The jokes weren't funny and the characters are uninteresting at best and grating at worst (when Mimi was like "BAWWW don't go!" to whatshisface I couldn't help but to roll my eyes). Also I hated "angel" girl. HATED. The plot appears to be going nowhere interesting, so when I looked at the countdown timer and saw that there were ten minutes left, I decided those ten minutes would be better spent doing something else and turned it off.

Faux-mature show fails.

I've gotta agree with kasumisama, though I haven't gotten to the point of dropping it. If I made it through Buzzer Beater then I can make it through this. Rather than being a "mature" anime, this show seems pretty blah and gets its age rating from the lesbian sex they try to throw in every 10 seconds rather than from any sort of real content.

Anyone who knows me knows that I'm a huge fan of dark anime, especially ones full of violence, gore, and depravity. Unfortunately Mnemosyne's contributions in these areas seem forced at best.

45 minutes once a month isn't too much to ask though, so I'll stick with it and just hope the plot pans out somehow. On a side note, I really enjoy the opening theme...that is until the guy starts singing and sounds like Taye Zonday.

I like the animation, the voice acting and the general vibe of the show. A sexy/dangerous/mystery cocktail.
Also, this ep was great for the background to what on Earth those angel's were in the Opening song! this is a great little series :D

Well, the main reason Inmortals are beaten by Angels is because they get too horny to do anything to them.

I lol'd. The Immortals are too horny and the angels are too stupid. My, what a nice combination.

In any case. Call me stupid, but I couldn't follow the case completely. What made the episode enjoyable was a bit of explanation about the Immortals and that there are people out there after them. Oh, and the yuri action. Though the Rie Kugimiya lesbian loli seems a bit too forced.

Heh, I lol too. I never truly got what was the significance in the Stamps. All the guys who had the stamps had different ties between each other, be it political, or underground dealings. The only one I never got was the Professor guy, since as far as I know he only had a stamp, and they never explained what exactly drove him to the streets (maybe that so called "crash" is features in an upcoming episode).

So yeah, some exposition about Angels and Inmortals, and all we know is Apos is a sick masochist who likes to torture inmortals and wants to kill Rin....or something. That said, I don't see the point of him sending that assasin again and again, considering Rin won't die by any currently known means (maybe he just wants to torture her as much as possible and/or capture her). Mimi is indeed a very unfitting figure, but I guess her sudden changes from "cute yet responsible woman" to "I want to do you Rin !" fits into the "Inmortals are horny" thing they got going.

Apos is indeed a sick guy. Maybe he wants to figure out how "immortal" they are? How much pain they can stand? Dunno. We'll see.

Other than the great action scenes and details about the Time Spores, it was an ok episode. It dragged on a bit and it was very confusing at times. I found the first episode better, and I sort of agree with Kasumisama and Blackmagic. Some of the scenes do seem forced. Though I'm not going to drop this. I'm still enjoying the show overall.

Faux-mature show fails.

There is definitely a lot in there that I can agree with. It definitely tries too hard to be cool, and the yuri shit is very tacked on. Furthermore, while it is a moderately "adult" anime without the stupid sex stuff they are pushing on us, they seem to show random shots of breast whenever possible simply for the sake of them. Now, maybe that's what people are looking for, and that's fair--although at that point it seems there are other mediums far more suited to said interests--but the sexuality constantly forced down our throats in this show is getting to be too much.

Mnemosyne still has a lot of potential, even if its run is limited, but it seems to constantly be making poor decisions that push it farther and farther away from the good series that seemed to be forming in the first episode.

Let's just hope they get their shit together.

However, I never drop shows and aside from that I'm interested to see what the final product actually ends up looking like, so I'll just cling to my feeble dreams of good decisions and polishing up of a rough stone.

I put off watching episode 2 since I didn't want to rush it. I was glued to my seat throughout the entire episode. I will say that I want more sex and blood next episode. It was hot. Holy shit with the angels and immortals "thang." Rin was like in heat.

Make it a full-blown hentai. That would sure piss some people off. =)

Well in my opinion the story seems a bit hurried, trying to advance the plot a lot while having a overwhelming amount of material that was not really related to it, but since this is just the second episode I can still hope they get it more focused on the main characters. Can't really agree about the intensity thing some people are claiming since I couldn't stay concentrated for the whole episode and my attention started wandering.

The first episode delivered more intensity. This one kinda lost you at some points. I think it was the stamp thing that kinda got confusing. It only ever made sense when they went into the angels thing.

Am I the only one feeling nostalgic over the '90's vibes the show it emanating? That won me over right off in the first episode.

Seems to me that the violence and sexuality are meant to be throwbacks to the '90's era of stylized anime when such anime as Mnemosyne were the norm rather than the exception. I find this a refreshing change from the trend of "shiny and bright" anime we're getting in droves these days.

As for the episode, as with the first, excellent. I'm looking forward to more.

Kinda mediocre. Characters are kinda dull and plot goes nowhere.

There are boobs and gore but not much more. And the 4 episodes left better not be episodic as the first 2.

I liked the first episode better. I'm glad that I saw the first one, as it is resposible for me coming back for more. I never really got the whole stamp thing, or why an assassin would kill just for stamps. Too much was not explained or fully explored. It was an okay episode, but nowhere as good as the first IMO.

Better than the first. Actually pretty good.

But I kind of get the feeling, that the immortals want angels plot is there for the sole purpose of being able to show sexual scenes with blood.

this anime is sadly so ridiculous it makes me laugh in almost all those "serious" scenes... the plot is nowhere near good, i can't help but wish it was about a psychopath who f*cks and tortures people or something like that... at least it wouldn't be so stupid o-o the only thing i find quite good in it is the opening music...

oh and me and my friends came up with something like this:
how to make mnemosyne?
1. make a hentai.
2. add crappy plot and lots of bloody scenes.
3. remove sex scenes so they can air it on tv.

ffs, it would at least serve it's purpose if there were actually REAL sex scenes and if you could actually see the torture scenes a bit..
