Eh. I was really looking forward to this but really the protagonist with all his 'I'm a Virgin NEET' jokes are so outdated. They wanted to make the protagonist's narration "unique" by ripping off Tatami Galaxy and Subaru's cringey 'real world' otaku comments.

The boobs on the girls are ridiculous I kinda feel offended. I usually love really fast paced anime but it just kills everything when you stuff every character intro in the first ep and introduce the murder at the end.

Wants to be Steins;GatexSubaruxOccultAcademyxTatamiGalaxyxBakemonogatari. This is such a mess... might drop it...

Couldn't watch the entire episode without having to come here and check whether it was worth trying to continue. Got as far as the fortune teller scene, which was properly acceptable and interesting, but then it returned to fan-service and I had to complain that this happens too often.

If you can put up with an annoying MC duo, perhaps, and ignore breasts that seem like they're almost part of her stomach and quite literally bigger than her head - and naturally get their own screen time as if they're a character.

Nothing wrong with the amount of information they throw at you, too many shows do nothing with their time anyway, but trying to run the same style as Monogatari or the like with MC's (irritating in this case) fast talking is unnecessary.

Edit: I would actually like some anime to watch this season, but at this rate there might seriously be nothing.

This was so...Shaft? Like I was reminded of the Monogatari several times, in direction and display you know. These fast cuts, vibrant colors, text inserts.

meh

I hate girls with over-sized breasts. They tend to be useless and nothing but distraction and ruiners for the story. The speech style reminded me of the monogatari first at the beginning but after five minutes they were just talking very fast, putting too much info in no time. If it hadn't for this ridiculous girl with huge watermelons as breast I would have liked the episode more


I agree with both of these comments. I really don't understand. If this show cut out the gimmicks and awkward gags, and was just "normal", I feel like it might be okay. But I have already lost about 90% of my hope. I don't know why I still try.

Ok. This show just aired today, and the pleb and weaboos already give low rating for this..

I'm really tired of the weaboos. Can we just eliminate them all?

Don't you think you should give this show a chance, atleast 3 episodes, then decide it?
Smh.. Kids these days..

Someone needs to ban A-1 from adapting light novels, this first episode is a mess.


Rather than A-1 you should look at the production committee or the director and tell them that.


And the owner of the I.P. who gave the rights to make a butchering knowing full well it'd be a butchering.

But people don't seem to realize this. Like people seeing Grisaia getting pissed on in fall 2014, badmouthing 8bit for it (the studio) and then turning around to throw all their money at Sekai project's rushed Steam port the next second.

Occultic;Nine creator will make money off this too, as people are deluded there's a disconnect between adaptation and original creator.

Uhm... what?

Well that was hyperactive, overwhelming and hella confusing all at the same time. Not quite sure what to make of it. I mean I'm not expecting everything to be explained by the first episode mind you but it'll be really hard to get attached to anything when they keep this kind of ultra-faced pacing and dialogue (and speaking of which, the dialogue is super awkward too)

And did we really need both a boob monster and a super in-your-face MC? The guy gives off the impression of being like Subaru except without any depth :s

Idk if I'll really end up liking this show... which would be unfortunate because I had some hopes for it but oh well. I guess we'll have to wait and see. Not impressed thus far at least


Did you just try to imply Subaru has any depth? ...

So far I am not impressed. The first episode was very rushed, I had a hard time trying to keep up with the subtitles half the time. When I saw the PV I thought it would have a rather darker and serious storyline but instead we got an extremely hyper fast-paced first episode.

From what I saw I am assuming that there are about 3 different character stories going on that may all connect to each other somehow. I have no problem with that but mannnnn, it was just too fast for me. I really hope they will slow down next few episodes and get a bit more serious, otherwise I may drop it.

They definitely put too much in the first episode but it was easy enough to follow. We sort of have character introductions out of the way now, hopefully following episodes give a bit more explanation, but I'm super interested in seeing what comes next.

The episode was definitely a little rushed, but it was till very interesting. If the pacing slows down, this will be a great show. Give it more time.

Also, the ending gave me some Steins;Gate vibes. Then again, this is from the same creator.

what the actual fuck was this show ,getting Seikimatsu Occult Gakuin /monogatari vibes and i only dare mention the two together for the simple fact of how fast pace they send dialogue into your face but unlike monogatari all the lines here were 90% complete nonsense plus jumping around to several characters within the first episode didn't help in understanding anything besides Occult-like stuff is happening?.


cmon bruh balloon boobs leave that for the doujin's there's a limit to how big they can be until it gets silly lol.. and i have a soft spot for sakura ayane but her Genki here is overkill with everything going on

Terrible, just terrible. This was worst pacing in episode, I've seen in my entire life!
This looked like someone decided to fast-forward everything at least 4 times.

EDIT: Fun fact. I actually tried watching some parts in 0.7 speed and they finally speak normal!

I feel like this would be several times better viewed in an english dub simply due to the speed of the dialogue/subtitles. Its just a pain to keep up the reading tempo for 24 minutes straight.

for the potential.


If you don't understand this its because you cant follow a complex intro, and you probably need to see another easy-plot show in order to feel like you actually watched something.

I have to say I personally enjoyed it, though I can see a lot of people (especially in the kissanime comment section) were not such big fans. Yeah it moves kinda fast, but I prefer that to moving excruciatingly slow.

I can definitely see some similarities to the way Steins;Gate ran, especially with the super eccentric characters and the ambiguous first episode.
I reaaallllllyyyy liked the last scene and I'm gonna keep watching.

LETS HOPE IT GETS BETTER

That gone way too fast, I just activated my adrenaline rushed.

I dunno but there are two things here, maybe A-1 is f**king with us with this first episode, fast pace and showing all that or they did it on a reasonable purpose or what so ever. But it feels I find it interesting on its mystery aspect, although a bit cringey on some moments. As for the animation, I like its semi-surreal especially the animation on the OP and ED, the songs were good.

I really hope this show will get better because I was not impressed at all by this first episode. Everything went by way too fast and I honestly couldn't care less at times of what's going on.

I got so distracted by that one girl's "plot" that it was bugging me at some point. The main male mc is kinda annoying too.

Overall, I'll give this show a few episodes and I'll try to accept the fact that A-1 Pictures just rushed one whole light novel volume in one episode from what I heard. Pretty underwhelming so far.

I can see why a lot of people would say the episode goes too fast.
But I find the pace to have an interesting effect, it forces you to focus.
The pace is so fast because it forces you to focus on everything to gain any information at all.
But that's my thought.
