| Damn, another show with a head-banging OP? I'm down! Not a bad start with the entirely shounen vibes. Since it's from a Chinese manhwa, the OST reflects the basis for the structure, and I've gotta say I'm hooked. Oh, and also the Made in Abyss feels. The Anglers of Magmel are no joke, and the MC himself is already dat OP. Too bad subs are disappointing and since bilibili has a stranglehold on the series due to the Chinese source material, we will likely see sub-par subs released 1 or 2 days after the Jap raws. |

| Bit too boring/generig for me. Bad first episode that did not really introduce much about the world. (Just a few words about Magmel and how it brings out thet greed in the humans.) Some char designs in too annoying/extreme shounen style. No real interesting plot hinted at. Not gonna watch this. I mean with a similar char design and better plot soon I can watch more Shingeki no Kyojin. :D |
| This first episode was pretty interesting I must say The animation was inconsistent however. The fight scenes were impressive but the rest of the episode animation isn't really good, especially the characters movements papsoshea said: First of all, the subs are bad Agreed on that point I had to watch it with english subs since I couldn't find a french sub anywhere, and I still noticed all the horrendous mistakes :') |
| All I could think at the beginning was how they completely skimmed over the fact that such huge landmass appearing a the Pacific would change currents and the global climate. Assuming it replaced the water instead of causing its level to rise. Kind of important catastrophic plot point to miss. Sadly it looks like it's another show ruled by contrived writing instead of logic. It also feels like a low tier WSJ series... Shame, if it wasn't so ridden with basic faults it could probably make for a decent fantasy adventure series. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| Anybody else got a Toriko vibe from it? |
| REJECT ANIMU - EMBRACE TOKU |
| Hmm a new continent huh. With human greed for what it is i bet there were no shortage of people who decided to explore hoping to make a fortune like that first party. So Inyou is someone that searches for and rescues people at the request of others then. If anything Magmel sure has claimed plenty of lives already with both its natural terrain and its wildlife that is surprisingly cunning. Inyou though sure has surprisingly good combat ability though. The new riches from the new land sure ended up bringing the worst out of the brother though. Too bad about the customer though. His brother was way beyond saving. Overall an interesting first ep and i have to say the mc really is an interesting one. Both the setting and his profession are also quite interesting as well. |

| didn't like the animation and how the story was told but I liked the main chara, gonna give a second chance |
| "Gradually Watermelon" |
| Did Ryoma Echizen stop playing tennis? lol (Sorry, I can not look at this character without remembering him) I need to see more for a more definite opinion. |
Gimme more character development and/or romance. Probally a shotacon. |
| The direction/animation was fucking atrocious but the story itself interest me a little bit... If i feel like it i might give episode 2 a chance, idk. |

LeafJonin said: To anyone who watched Fairy gone; this is how you properly open a show and provide groundwork exposition. Exposition didn't feel like an info dump, we learn about this strange new world through the eyes of Kuriksu who has entered this place as blind as we are. This is totally not the show I thought it was going to be, I was expecting a light hearted adventure piece, instead what we are going to get is a grand scale epic! So excited for the possibilities of this setting and these extremely likable characters. Zero might be best girl this season too! Both the OP and ED were kick ass Love the colour palette that was chosen too, really brings so much life to the scenery. Kimetsu no Yaiba is going to have a run for its money Also curious for any manga readers out there, how many chapters were adapted in this first episode? Funnily enough just came to this after watching Fairy Gone. Magmel is a much better first episode, and while the show isn't going to do anything revolutionary (getting a lot of One Piece/Gintama hybrid vibes), I bet it'll be a solid, and underappreciated, ride this season. |
| This looks like a bootleg version of HxH's dark continent lol |
 |
| This one looks interesting. |
| Interesting so far. Seems there little interest in it but this is a potential sleeper. If the world building is done well this could be really good. Will give it a few more episodes at least~ |
"When everyone else is about to give up, the fighter who becomes the role model, is the true Leader."  |
| dropped it immediately after I saw the loli when will Japan stop their obsession with lolis? legit im so tired of it |
| the story sounds good, it's acceptable if you ignore all the unnecessary drama in the first few minutes; I'm glad that the boy died but was left with a taste that was only for the dramatic effect the main characters seem interesting although the design does not seem to fit very well with the animation style (in the manga style looks on point actually) I would like the history to focus more on exploration; the island by itself seems to be very interesting, the atmosphere reminds me of Hunter x Hunter but in a good way maybe it isn't a masterpiece; far from it, but it seems ok |
| Not bad start, poor boy getting betrayed like this. It's interesting how is this continent, what other unique fruits & animals it has... |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| Can a manga reader tell if this was a good adaptation of the manga? Can't shake the thought that it was rushed and the fight was inconsistent |
| so many flaws original manhua is way better at least there're no censorship unlike most other chinese animes |
FuMomo-kun said: Because of how colourful and bright this was, I didn't think someone would die. I wonder why stories from China are so colourful. not all of them are colorful, take Hitori no Shita: The Outcast for example. i guess it's because the chinese government thinks anime is for kids and that's why anime isn't allowed to contain violence/blood/death/r-rated stuff, which is why animes like Death Note, Attack on Titan, and Tokyo Ghoul are banned. That's why chinese anime/cartoons are always bright and colorful, it's cause they're intended for kids of age 6-12 but it's getting better now. as the chinese animation industry is evolving we're getting more better, mature animes |
Snaita said: definitely not good. no, nowhere near as decent.Can a manga reader tell if this was a good adaptation of the manga? Can't shake the thought that it was rushed and the fight was inconsistent |
| This seems fun, felt bad for the boy that just wanted to save his brother despite his condition.. gotta feel for those kinds of characters. I like the MC so far, plus those black lightning effects are cool. I'ma keep up with this. |

| in fact, what happened in episode 2 is supposed to be chapter 1. and episode 2 also cut out a lot of interesting information that was shown in the manga. PS: good to meet a fellow hibari kyoya fan |

PS: good to meet a fellow hibari kyoya fan Good to know, I guess I'll have to pick the manga if this continues. Hibari is so underrated :( |
| Pretty interesting first episode, and some of the fight animation was pretty solid which I wasn't really expecting from the first episode of a Pierrot show lmao |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| 1st episode looks ok |
| That was definite!y not great. Why do people like this? |
| This felt so bland, and then I checked the director... Makes sense |
| It's quite decent. World setting is pretty interesting too. So Inyou is a lector. Boy he's strong. |
 |
| Interesting.. it make me think of made in abbys but with security perspective... lol.. |
 |
| It was interesting, MC was really awesome and badass! Poor boy got betrayed for his own brother! I am glad MC did what he deserved! looking forward more! |
 |
| Ths show needs official subs. Badly. |
| I just watched because the PV gave me HxH vibes. But i wasn't expecting to became dark with this disgustfull big brother,i realised something was wrong with the big brother, but i didn't expected him to kill the boy. RIP boy, i'm sad for you. In general the episode felt kinda rushed, but i liked wnough to spent 20 minues of eac week to watch it. Let's see if this will keep me interested in the next episodes. |
 |
| the OP and E are good also this looks very interesting |
 |
| jumanji-like forest!? MC is a bit OP! 4/5. |
 |
| Woah! This anime hooked me in. |
